The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1768

After Claire led her grandmother away, Yvette turned to Evie with a heavy sigh. "Evie, you really should go enjoy the city on your own."

"I think the reunion is going to go smoothly, and there really isn't anything you can help with here."

"The longer you stay in Cabinda, the more it's going to hurt your studies."

"Besides, you've been away for a while now. Your mother must be getting worried."

Yvette was trying to be as gentle as possible, but Evie knew she was being dismissed.

She also knew pushing back too aggressively would backfire.

So, she pivoted to a softer manipulation tactic. "Are you absolutely sure you'll be okay by yourself?"

"I know Queenie is older, but she clearly travels with intense security."

"What if she decides to take Quentin away from you?"

"You saw her. She's clearly extremely wealthy."

You couldn't hire a private security detail like that without serious money.

Those two bodyguards were standing outside the door like statues. Even whispering, Evie was terrified they might overhear her.

Her words hit directly at Yvette's core fear.

Yvette shook her head firmly. "Stop talking nonsense, Evie."

"Quentin is my son. Do you really think she's going to kidnap him? He's a grown man capable of making his own decisions."

"And if going with her is what's best for his leg, I will support it one hundred percent, no matter where she takes him."

Yvette wasn't just performing for the bodyguards; it was the absolute truth.

If Queenie had the resources to heal him, Yvette would gladly let her son go with her.

Evie realized Yvette was a lost cause.

*You might be thrilled to hand over your son, but what if she only wants the grandson and has zero interest in a widowed daughter-in-law?*

*Don't forget, your husband is dead!*
