Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez novel Chapter 674

Chapter 674~ 

Yelena didn’t know Yvette’s identity, but when she saw a Clusian woman seated at the head of the table, she recognized her significant position among the pirates, 

Anger simmered beneath the surface, but Yelena held back, unwilling to jeopardize Jeremiah’s plan. She swallowed her frustration, trying to keep her composure. 

Sull, she couldn’t entirely hide her disdain for Yvette. To Yelena Clusian woman in Spaunia mingling with pirates seemed like nothing more than a beauty who had sold herself, using her books to manipulate these vile men and flaunt their power. 

She glanced at Jeremiah, fear and pity clear in her eyes. But Jeremiah didn’t look her way. Instead, he deliberately stepped closer to Emmett, increasing the distance between himself and Yelena, who had been leaning in his direction just moments before. 

His gaze was fixed on Yvette, who was seated at the head of the table. She exuded a commanding presence, but her expression remained unreadable. Jeremiah wondered, Is Yvette upset? Why hasn’t she responded to my calls or texts? She must be angry 

Jeremiah wasn’t concerned about why Yvette was with Bruno and his crew, What gnawed at him was the look on her face- the quiet fury simmering beneath her calm exterior. He frowned, thinking. It’s hard to calm her down when she’s angry…. 

When Jeremiah, Emmett, and Yelena entered the ballroom earlier, Frankie and Chris immediately stood. Eminett noticed. the tense silence between Jeremiah and Yvette, Jeremiah was staring at her, but Yvette made no effort to acknowledge him. 

Emmett’s mind raced. Something felt off. It seemed there was an intensity in Yvette’s gaze that made him uneasy. 

He glanced at Yelena, then wondered, ‘Could this be about her? No, Yvette wouldn’t get jealous over something like this…. Would she?” 

What Emmett didn’t realize was that Bruno’s careless remarks earlier had already set things on a path to disaster. 

As he tried to piece it all together, he noticed Frankie and Chris subtly blinking at him, as if signaling something. Emmett frowned, wondering. What are they hinting at? Am I missing something?” 

The room fell into an uneasy silence, thick with tension, like the calm before a storm. Bruno glanced at Yvette’s unreadable, face and thought better of speaking. He sank into his chair without a word. 

Yvette exuded undeniable authority. Seated with one leg crossed she radiated a cold, commanding presence that silenced. 

the room. 

Her calm gaze swept over the space, and with a mocking smile, she tilted her head and raised an eyebrow. She said to Yelena, “And who are you to him?” 

The “him” needed no further clarification. Even the pirates, not usually quick to catch on to subtleties, immediately understood who she was referring to. 

Frankie, Chris, and Emmett froze, a sense of dread sinking in. One of them thought, “This is bad… 

Emmett was sure Yvette’s anger was due to Yelena, but he still held onto hope. Maybe all Jeremiah had to do was explain 

Yvette likely didn’t know Yelena was included for passing the standard procedure and had no personal ties to Jeremiah. Once Jeremiah clarified things, she’d calm down. 

But Frankie and Chris, who knew more of the details, weren’t as hopeful. One of them thought. This could get out of hand…” 

Jeremiah heard the cold finality in Yvette’s voice and met her emotionless gaze. “She hasn’t even looked at me since I walked in, he thought, his frown deepening.

Chapter 074 

Meanwhile, Yelena, stillinging to her pride, held tight to her sense of superiority. As the third–generation heir to a powerful political family from Clusia, she felt entitled to look down on others–especially a woman associating with pirates, She told herself her current humiliation was just a sarrifice for Jeremiah’s plan. When Yvette asked, something flickered in Velena’s eyes. She straightened, choosing her words carefully and masking any aggression with feigned innocence. 

1… I’m one of Captain Chavez’s people,” she said, her tone sweet carrying an unspoken meaning. 

Jeremiah’s expression darkened as he frowned. “She’s-” 

“Shut up. Yvette’s interruption was calm, but her words sliced though the tension like a blade Jeremiah froze, the impact landing squarely on his chest. 

For the first time, he fully understood the depth of her anger. Saying anything else now would only make things worse. 

A quiet sadness settled over him. Emmett, Chris, and Frankie didn’t dare move, let alone breathe. 

The tension thickened by Yvette’s chilling smile. This cold, mocking side of Yvette was unfamiliar to them, and they all feared this would end badly. 

Yelena had truly thrown Jeremiah under the bus. The three of them, who had grown up together, shared the same thought -they just wanted to stop Yelena before she said anything more 

Yelena glared at Yvette, seething with fury. She thought, ‘How dare she speak to Mr. Chavez like that? Who does she think she is, interrupting him? 

Caught in the crossfire, Bruno glanced nervously between Yvette and Jeremiah. The tension was thick, and the brewing conflict felt dangerous. Silence seemed the safest choice. He signaled to the other pirates to stay low and avoid getting caught in the storm. 

Seated at the head of the table, Yvette exuded a cool calm. Her posture might have seemed casual, but her presence was anything but calm. She spoke in a steady, commanding tone. “Please have these three take their seats.” 

Frankie and Chris exchanged uneasy glances. Yvette’s tone when she said “please” made it clear it wasn’t a request. Feeling the pressure, Emmett thought, ‘Yvette’s anger isn’t just simple anymore. What happened? How did she end up with these pirates? 

The pirates quickly stepped aside, clearing a path. Jeremiah stood motionless in the center, his blue eyes fixed on Yvette, his gaze steady and unflinching. 

Yvette lifted her chin slightly and met his gaze. After a long pause, Jeremiah was the first to move. He stepped toward the open space, silently thinking. ‘Forget it. If Yvette’s happy, that’s all that matters.
