Clifford was stumped for words and glanced at Yvette. Feeling utterly embarrassed, he quickly retreated upstairs with his glass of water, only to be yanked aside by Aurora the moment he rounded the corner. 

“Well? Yvette didn’t notice me, did she?” Aurora asked anxiously. 

Clifford gritted his teeth. This time, he scooped Aurora up in his arms, holding her securely. 

Looking into her bright eyes, he said in a low voice, “Instead of meddling with that brat’s affairs, why don’t we have another thild? Since our firstborn is a lost cause, let’s have a second child.” 

Aurora was stunned by Clifford’s words. Once she registered everything, she called him a pervert, but before she could say anything else, he sealed her lips with his own, giving them a light, frustrated nibble. 

Clifford’s eyes darkened. “This is the only way to handle this woman, or who knows what else she’d get up to?‘ he thought. 

Aurora opened her eyes wide, trying to break free from Clifford’s embrace. However, he had an iron grip on her. Eventually, she was kissed into submission, and her struggling hands gradually fell still as she quieted. 

Clifford fought against the desire in his body as he looked down at Aurora’s angry yet teary eyes. At once, his heart softened, and he cooed, “Be good now. Let’s go to our room.” 

Aurora was well aware of what was pressing against her waist. Her face reddened with both anger and embarrassment. “You shameless pervert!” 

Clifford laughed, his chest rumbling. With a deep and tender gaze, he said, “I’ll only be a pervert to you in this life.” 

With that, he strode toward their room in a few quick steps, even kicking the door shut behind them–a clear sign of his urgency. 

In the living room, Yvette withdrew her gaze from upstairs and tilted her head at Jeremiah. “Where’s my room?” she asked in a drawi 

Jeremiah massaged his temples and replied. “It’s on the second floor, the fourth room on the left.” It was Aurora’s careful arrangement, as she had deliberately chosen a room furthest from his 

Yvette glanced at Jeremiah, then took her time walking up the stairs with him on her tail. At the doorway, she paused and let her eyes casually roam over his features before curving her lips and saying in a cool voice, “Goodnight.” 

Yvette pushed the door open smoothly and turned to lean against the wall. With one leg slightly bent, she radiated frivolousness and defiance. 

Standing still, Jeremiah stared into her eyes and said in a husky voice, “My room’s haunted. I’m a bit scared, so how about I 

Yvette raised an eyebrow and pressed her lips together as amusement flickered in her eyes. She then looked up at him and echoed, “Haunted? Scared?” 

Jeremiah coughed into his hand, nodding with great seriousness. “Yes.” 

The next second, Yvette slipped into her room, shutting the door mercilessly in his face. Resignation flashed across Jeremiah’s eyes as he faced the closed door alone. Under the light, his tall figure seemed especially lonely.

Inside the bright root. Yvette swept her gare Mcross the week indifferently. 

The room had a minimalist decor without overly complex ornaments. While the color palette was simple, the details weke carefully crafted to showcase sophisticated tastes. It was redoubtedly her preferred style. 

Yvette’s attention shifted to the most prominent spot in the room. Her eyes lingered on it for a few seconds, but her gaze wax indifferent and brief 

The transparent display case next to the large vanity was filled with exquisite and valuable jewelry, each piece worthy to be put into auctions. 

Planning to take a shower, Yvette entered the dressing room. The second she opened one of the closets, she was greeted by full racks of new sleepwear in various styles. They were all freshly cleaned, carrying a faint high–end fragrance that was not overwhelming. 

Yvette’s hand on the closet door twitched before she opened the adjacent closet. Inside were various outfits, divided into black, white, gray, and colorful ensembles. They were all coordinated, a clear sign of thoughtful effort. 

Yvette lowered her gaze. At the thought of Aurora, her expression softened, and her usually cold eyes showed hints of 

emotion. 

The next morning, Yvette and Jeremiah went their separate ways after having breakfast with the rest of the Chavez family Jeremiah headed to the First Military District while Yvette visited Betrico University to check out the milkshake shop James had specially opened for her. 

James had left her a card yesterday, insisting that she visit the shop before returning to Seacrity. Since she had no plans for the day, she decided to sample their milkshakes. 

The 1,000–square–foot Sano Milkshake Shop had become an internet sensation not just at Betrico University but also at other universities. 

Its unique flavors and all–natural ingredients, combined with the fact that the professors from Betrico University showed up on its opening day, caused Sano Milkshake Shop to rise to fame quickly. 

Such instant popularity meant that their milkshakes were in high demand since its opening day. The shop strictly limited sales to fifty cups per day, yet there was always a constant line outside the shop. 

After all, no one could resist a healthy, additive–free, delicious milkshake that wouldn’t cause weight gain. 

By 10 a.m., two lines had already formed outside the shop. Passersby barely batted an eye at the sight as they were well aware of the milkshake shop’s popularity. 

A few days ago, some envious competitors tried to discover what additives Sano Milkshake Shop added to their milkshakes to make them so delicious.
