Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez novel Chapter 165

Chapter 165
Inside the cave, Yvette sat in front of the firewood and skillfully started a fire. The damp and dark cave became warm and inviting
The other four had various external injuries. They sat to the side and applied medicine.
Chris took out some anesthetic from his backpack and looked at his shoulder. Then he looked at Yvette, who lowered her head and sat by the fire. He wanted to say something but hesitated.
Just an hour ago, Chris’s wound was bleeding uncontrollably. After he ate the vanilla toffee Yvette gave, the wound stopped bleeding within five minutes. That vanilla toffee was amazing.
Compared to Chris, Emmett and Bruce weren’t hurt badly. They applied some medicine to each other and leaned against the cave wall to rest.
After the fierce battle with the giant python and trekking through the rainforest for over an hour, by the end of the day, everyone was so exhausted that they didn’t even want to talk.
Of the four, Frankie was the least injured.
Frankie had been knocked out by the python at the very beginning. When he woke up, Yvette had dealt with the giant python.
The cave was eerily silent.
The only sound was the crackling of the fire.
Emmett and Bruce had rested enough. They gathered around the fire and took out their packs of compressed biscuits to eat.
Frankie watched Yvette curiously as he ate.
Frankie had a million questions swirling in his mind but didn’t know where to start.
Bruce took a bite of his biscuit, stayed quiet for a few seconds, looked up at Yvette, and asked the question everyone had been dying to ask, “Yve, you’ve visited this rainforest before, haven’t you?” Bruce’s tone was confident.
Bruce was certain that Yvette had been here, based on her familiarity with the rainforest and the giant python she mentioned. It couldn’t have been described so accurately without seeing it herself.
Emmett, Chris, and Frankie all turned their attention to Yvette as well.
They also wanted to know why Yvette was so acquainted with this deadly rainforest.
They overlooked how Bruce called Yvette. In other words, they had accepted her in their hearts. Thus, they wouldn’t call her Ms. Zeller anymore. It sounded alienated.
Yvette looked up.
She moved her gaze from the fire to them.
She narrowed her eyes slowly.
The outline of her face appeared blurred and mysterious in the flickering firelight.
Her striking eyes were wild and rebellious. She smiled msevously.
She said in a fierce voice, “You’re right. I came here once ten years ago and found it amusing. I stayed for three months.”

The biscuit in Emmett’s hand dropped to the ground with a snap
Bruce’s face was filled with disbelief.
Chris stared blankly.
The most unusual was Frankie, who looked at Yvette with excitement.
Frankie thought, ‘What is Yve’s background? She said that she came here for fun. It’s mind-blowing
From now on, if anyone says beautiful women are just eye candy, I won’t agree.
Emmett, Bruce, and Chris thought of one question.
How old was Yvette ten years aro?
A teenager stayed in the world’s most dangerous rainforest for three months.
Was that even possible for a human?
Chris swallowed and looked at Yvette with admiration.
Chris said. “Yve, how old were you back then?”
Yvette lifted her chin slightly. Her gaze was deep, cold, and full of mischief.
She curled her lips.
She said calmly, “Twelve.”
As soon as she said so, the cave became silent again. They were speechless.
Who was this incredible person sitting in front of them?
She could survive alone in this rainforest at twelve years old. Who would believe it?
This was the world-famous “Rainforest of Death.”
If a hundred people entered and two managed to come back, that was considered fortunate. Countless explorers had met their end here and left no trace. If people heard about it, it would be jaw-dropping,
Frankie couldn’t hold back his curiosity and interrupted just as Emmett was about to speak.
Frankie said, “Ms. Zeller, when you were here, were you super amazing? I bet you were invincible, right? Did you fight the giant python back then?”
Frankie’s imagination was running wild.
All he could picture was Yvette wielding a dagger and slashing beasts.
Yvette turned her head to glance at the excited Frankie.
She smirked ostentatiously and evilly
She picked up a stick with her slender fingers and poked at the fire.
She said mischievously, “I met it a few times.”
Yvette didn’t remember how many beasts she had killed in the rainforest.

All she remembered from those three months were piles of beas corpses and the persistent blood stench she could never wash away.
The endless killing made her excited.
Yvette said that she met the python a few times.
Her tone was so casual that they felt like the giant python from the battle was a small python.
The next day, after a night of rest, everyone was refreshed and set off again. The encounter with the python offered them a deeper understanding of the rainforest’s danger, but it strangely gave them a sense of reassurance.
After all, they had nothing to fear when they had Yvette with them who ventured into the rainforest alone at twelve and survived for three months.
Along the way, Emmett and the others came across things they had never seen before, like huge carnivorous plants, swarms of giant hornets, masses of flesh-eating ants, and enormous crocodiles lurking in deep pools.
Whenever they faced non-lethal threats, Yvette offered tactical guidance and helped Emmett and the others hone their skills through practical experience.
Thanks to Yvette’s accurate predictions, they managed to get through the challenges. They were a bit battered but unscathed Everyone showed significant improvements in their abilities. Even Frankie, who was the weakest physically, had become noticeably stronger.
Emmett and Chris, as ancient combat artists, took any opportunity to consult with Yvette without disturbing her rest
Under Yvette’s guidance, their internal energy grew steadily stronger.
After spending a few days together, Emmett, Bruce, Chris, and Frankie were genuinely impressed by Yvette.
The distance between them had gradually diminished.
From the initial awkwardness, they had become familiar with each other. Even the aloof Bruce would sometimes joke with
Yvette.
They regarded Yvette as their leader.
If Yvette said to go left, Emmett, Bruce, Chris, and Frankie wouldn’t consider going right.
They had spent five days in the deadly rainforest.
From their initial discomfort to being adept, everyone even competed to fight when they met dangerous beasts, After each encounter, Yvette gave them one or two insightful comments to point out where they fell short. Her feedback was always sharp and concise.
On the night of the fifth day, inside the cave, Bruce, Chris, Emmett, and Frankie all looked mournfully at the compressed biscuits in their hands while they envied Yvette’s steaming self-heating steak.
They couldn’t help but swallow hard
At first, it was okay for them to eat compressed biscuits. However, after five days of biscuits and water, no one could stand it
anymore.
They finally realized why Yvette brought the self-heating steak.
Too bad they figured it out too late.
Frankie kept trying to convince himself when he stared at his compressed biscuits. He muttered, “This isn’t a compressed

biscuit. It’s duck confit, stewed pork, and a big drumstick…
It was hard for Yvette to ignore their pitiful looks. She raised her head.
