Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

"Mr. Quinn, the members of the Dark Organization have been secretly keeping an eye on you," Apollo reported.

This wasn't a good sign for them!

Wilson's expression remained unchanged at the report. He had clearly sensed it a long time ago.

"Mm, I know."

Apollo's expression grew more serious. "Mr. Quinn, should we take action?"

If the Dark Organization suddenly struck, they wouldn't want to be caught off guard.

"No need," Wilson replied in a deep voice. If they took action now, it might lead the Dark Organization to misunderstand their intentions.

"But Mr. Quinn, this situation puts you in great danger..."

Before Apollo could finish speaking, he was abruptly interrupted by Wilson's displeased voice.

"Do you have objections to my decision?"

"I wouldn't dare!" Apollo quickly responded, but he couldn't help but silently sigh inwardly.

Wilson would even risk his life for Yvette...

...

Yvette followed Solomon and Ezekiel to the room. "Mr. Earle, what happened to Mr. Maximillian yesterday? What exactly happened between him and Wilson's father in the past?"

Hearing her questions, Ezekiel sighed deeply. "I never expected... I really didn't expect your boyfriend to be Arthur's son! What a tragic twist of fate!"

Solomon's face was also dark, and he let out a heavy sigh. "It's truly unbelievable... fate has such a cruel sense of humor!"

Yvette's unease deepened, and her red lips pressed tightly together. "Mr. Earle, Mr. Stafford, what's going on?"

"Now that things have come to this point, it's time to tell you." Ezekiel and Solomon exchanged a glance, their voices heavy as they spoke. "Yvie, although Mr. Maximillian has been a loner all these years, he once had a wife and

daughter. They lived happily together as a family of three."

Yvette's confusion grew deeper. "But why have I never seen them? And why has Mr. Maximilian never mentioned them?"

Ezekiel didn't answer her directly. Instead, he asked, "Yvie, do you know why Mr. Maximillian has never celebrated his birthday all these years and why even the word 'birthday' became a taboo for him?"

Yvette shook her head. "I don't."

Theodore had never mentioned any of these matters to her!

Ezekiel sighed heavily, his voice grave. "Because his wife and daughter were tragically killed on his birthday."

Solomon added, "And the murderer who killed his wife and daughter was Arthur!"

How could this be...

Upon hearing this, Yvette's heart suddenly contracted in sharp pain. Her long, delicate eyelashes trembled uncontrollably-she clearly found it impossible to accept the truth.

"Yvie, are you alright?"

Xavier, who had been standing beside her, immediately looked at her with concern, his eyes filled with sympathy.

On one side was Theodore, and on the other was Wilson. Now the two most important people in her life were enemies. Being caught in the middle was the most painful thing for her.noveldrama

Ezekiel looked at her with pity but had no way to help. "Mr. Maximillian was so distressed yesterday that he fainted from the shock. He just woke up a while ago. Yvie, you should go see him."

Yvette's face was pale as she walked into the bedroom, uncertain of what to feel. "Mr. Maximillian..."

Theodore appeared haggard. There were dark circles under his eyes. He looked extremely weak.

Concern flashed in Yvette's eyes. "Mr. Maximillian, let me take your pulse!"

"No need," Theodore coldly refused. It was the first time he had ever been so distant with her.

"I presumed they've already told you everything. have a deep grudge for Arthur. Now, I'm giving you two

choices. One is to break up with net

Wilson right now, and our

relationship will stay the same. You'll stiff be my most beloved apprentice."

"If you refuse to agree, then we'll sever all ties and become enemies! I won't show mercy to either of you!"
