Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87 Count Me Out

“Ms. Actonward here was making a fuss at the shopping mall. As a result, the store’s staff nearly kicked Ms. Moore out. Oh, right. Ms. Actonward also demanded to have the shirt that Ms. Moore was about to purchase…”

Rayson’s merciless confession caused Yvette to turn paler, like a thief caught red-handed.

She clenched her fists and frantically explained through downcast eyes, “That’s not true! They’re lying! They’re trying to frame me…”

Jordan snorted coldly, “So they’re framing you now, huh? Then what about that last incident with the dog? Did someone else frame you?”

Beads of nervous sweat formed on Yvette’s forehead. All she could manage was a simple squeak, “I…”

“Enough!” Jordan interrupted. His ears burned a tinge redder with rage. “I’ve told you once, never take me for a fool. But this is the second time you’ve lied straight to my face! Since you refuse to call off our engagement, I’ll have a word with my Mom tonight to jumpstart the process!”

Call off the engagement?

Yvette’s legs wobbled, causing her to take two steps back.

What respectable family will have me if the Bakers call off my engagement?

Absolutely not! I won’t allow it!

Yvette mustered up all her courage in one final attempt to save things. She dashed to Jordan, wrapping her arms around his thigh as she cried out fat drops of tears. “No… please, Mr. Baker! I made a foolish mistake. Please forgive me just this once! I swear I’ll never cause trouble again. Please don’t call off our engagement…”

This incident had cut off any strand of patience or pity that Jordan felt for Yvette.

Jordan’s gaze shot over at the butler as he roared, “Well? Why aren’t you getting rid of this nuisance?”

The butler complied. He hurriedly called for two bodyguards, who pried Yvette off Jordan’s thigh and dragged her out of the Jupiters’ estate.

Likewise, they removed Sharon from the estate. Vinson hadn’t even spared her a single glance, much less fall in love with her. Not that she minded because she was now terrified of Vinson.

The two looked utterly miserable as they boarded their car and returned to the Actonwards’ residence.

Yvette remained dumfounded during their journey home.

I came here to gather the guys’ help in teaching Rayson as well as Arielle a lesson. However, this wasn’t how I predicted things to end; not only did I fail to get Arielle in trouble, but Jordan also canceled our marriage contract. What the hell am I going to do now?
