Talented Heiress A Rose with Thorns (Yvette and Wilson) novel Chapter 893

"Why won't you listen to me, Yvie?" asked Wilson disapprovingly.

He sighed helplessly, well-defined hands reaching out to wrap around her slender waist.

His tone was firmer as he said, "Take a short break first."

Yvette found herself being carried away by him. She pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, raising her eyes to look at him as she stated, "I'm not tired."

"Not tired?" Wilson echoed, his eyes narrowing slightly as he pinched her cheeks with his long, slender fingers. "You think I believe you?"

Yvette fell silent.

He sure wasn't easy to fool!

Wilson gazed at her, eyes filled with gentle affection. His deep, husky voice rang out unhurriedly in her ear. "You may not feel bad for yourself, but I certainly do."

Feeling a warmth curl around her heart, she blinked lightly, then nodded. "Alright, I'll take a short break."

A smile finally appeared on his face. He then proceeded to carry her into the room.

She was bewildered. "I only promised to take a short break!"

"I know," he replied.

He lowered his head to place a light kiss on her forehead, and when he spoke again, his voice was gentle yet irresistible.

"Leave tracking down Wesley's whereabouts to me. Your current mission is to get some good rest, Yvie!"

…

Back at Dark Organization headquarters, Xavier rushed to meet Theodore, evidently having just returned from outside not too long ago.

"You were asking for me, Mr. Maximillian?"

Theodore was sitting on his throne, face pale. However, the pressure he exuded ensured that nobody would underestimate him.
