Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

A Rose 484

“Wow, thanks for that.” Yvette lightly tapped her tongue against her teeth, fixing him with a half– smile.

Jasper chuckled, completely oblivious to any danger. “Yvette, why are you being so polite? We’re family, no need for that!”

Yvette was silent.

Jasper didn’t notice Yvette’s exasperation and continued, “Yvette, don’t worry. I’ll call Wilson right now to come over…”

“I’m just afraid you won’t make it until Mr. Quinn arrives!” Carson interrupted him sharply, his eyes bloodshot.

If Wilson arrived, he was done for! He had to act first!

“What’s the fuss here?” Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

The noise had attracted Blake Schlafer’s attention. He was covered in tattooed sleeves, with a big head and big ears, exuding an intimidating air–clearly not someone to mess with.

Upon seeing him, Carson looked as if he had found a savior and rushed over eagerly.

“Mr. Schlafer, they’re causing trouble in the underground racing track! You can’t let them off easily; hurry up and grab them!”

“Causing trouble?” Blake’s face instantly darkened. “Do you know this is Master Xev’s territory? I’d like to see who dares to cause trouble here!”

With so many of them and only the two of them, Jasper frowned tightly, positioning himself protectively in front of Yvette. He whispered urgently, “Yvette, I’ll hold them off; you run!”

“Run?” Yvette blinked lazily, her demeanor casual. “Why would I run?”

“Because if you don’t, they’ll catch you!” Jasper was frantic. “Yvette, you have to hurry and escape…‘

“It’s just you two little brats causing trouble on my territory, right…”

Blake approached them with a fierce expression, but before he could finish his threat, he suddenly locked eyes with Yvette’s beautiful, icy gaze. He initially showed disbelief, then instinctively bent down, preparing to kneel.

“Master-

Yvette shot him a look, silently stopping him from kneeling.

Black quickly realized she didn’t want her identity exposed and stood straight again. He lost all

his earlier bravado, now looking at her with a submissive demeanor.

“Mr. Schlafer, it’s these two causing trouble; what are you waiting for? Hurry up and grab

them.”

When Carson saw Blake’s sudden change in attitude, he felt confused and couldn’t help but urge him forward. But before he could finish his sentence, Blake punched him to the ground.

“Shut up! This isn’t your place to speak!” Blake glared at him angrily.

This fool had nearly made him offend Yvette! Even if he had the guts, he would never dare to grab her!

“Ah!” Carson cried out in pain, his face contorted. “Mr. Schlafer, why did you hit me? They are the ones causing trouble and breaking the rules.

“Carson, do you still have any shame? You clearly lost but refuse to admit it, and now you’re slandering us for causing trouble!”

Jasper didn’t understand why Blake had suddenly changed his attitude, but watching this scene felt especially satisfying.

Yvette’s indifferent gaze fell on him, her tone flat yet somehow instilling fear.

“You know better than I do how to handle cheaters, right?”

“Y–Yes! Ms. Murray, I will definitely follow the rules!” Blake replied immediately, his tone

respectful. He then turned to instruct his men, “Drag him to the back and deal with him; don’t

dirty Ms. Murray’s eyes.”

“Yes, Mr. Schlafer!”
