Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

A Rose 351

Upon seeing this scene, Jasper’s eyes nearly popped out. He couldn’t believe that was his elder brother!

He had never seen Wilson being this gentle.

“What are you staring at?”

When Wilson turned to Jasper again, he returned to his usual cold demeanor. It sent a chill down Jasper’s spine.

“I’m cutting your allowance off, so you won’t be getting any from now on,” Wilson said.

Upon hearing that, Jasper immediately wailed, “Wilson, you can’t do that…”

“Yeah?” Wilson lazily raised his eyebrow, exuding an air of unquestionable authority. “Do you have any objections to my decision?”

For Yvette’s sake, Wilson was already lenient toward Jasper. Otherwise, the punishment could’ve been

worse.

Meeting Wilson’s cold gaze, Jasper cowered. He shrank to the side in grievances, looking extremely pitiful.

Martha held back her laughter. She pulled him aside and gave him some advice.

“Jasper, don’t secretly try to snatch your brother’s woman. It’s difficult for him to get a wife at his age. You’re still young, so you’ll have plenty of chances to meet other ladies.”

It was about Wilson being old again.

Wilson’s temples throbbed as his expression turned cold and grim. Meanwhile, Yvette couldn’t help but smile at his suppressed displeasure.

In the next second, he held her slender waist tightly. “Baby, how could you smile? You think I’m old, don’t you?”

Yvette showed a hint of helplessness as she held his hand. Wilson instantly felt comforted and gazed at

her with affection.

Witnessing the couple’s affection, Martha smiled delightfully.

“Yvie, your grandma and I were best friends. We had agreed to unite our families by marrying our grandchildren to each other.

“The arranged marriage was meant for Wilson and the Murray family’s eldest child. But since Jacob was their first–born child, we had to wait for the next child for the marriage.

“Little did we know, the Murrays had five boys in a row. Luckily, you came along, and we set the engagement right after you were born!”

Unfortunately, Yvette was kidnapped, and the Murrays searched for years without finding her. Eventually, no one in Jubilife City dared to mention it, so it was gradually forgotten.

Fortunately, Yvette was found later on. And to Martha’s delight, she was soon about to become her granddaughter–in–law.

After having dinner with Martha, Wilson sent Yvette home.

The car stopped in front of the entrance of Murray Manor, but Wilson was unwilling to let go of Yvette’s

hand.

“I really can’t wait to marry you.”

When she met his intense and tender gaze, Yvette’s heart skipped a beat. Her long and thick eyelashes trembled.

Upon seeing Yvette’s reaction, Wilson was aroused. He gently pinched her chin and leaned forward. When he was about to kiss her, they heard the door being kicked along with Jacob’s voice.

“Yvie…”

Yvette pushed Wilson away and pursed her lips. “My brothers are here to take me home.” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Wilson gritted his teeth. His usually cold and restrained expression was tinged with a hint of mischief. Despite his reluctance, he had no choice but to let Yvette go.
