Was 50 million dollars a small sum of money?
Ashton and Sean, who were standing nearby, couldn’t help but show their envy.
‘Jacob, when will you give us an allowance too?”
“Yeah. Jacob, when will you pay attention to your two younger brothers? We need a little bit of money too.”
“Get lost.” Jacob shot them a cold glare. “What do you have to even compare yourselves to Yvie?”
It seemed the Murray family rule was to raise sons in poverty and daughters in luxury. Yvette had suffered so much while living away from home, so she deserved the very best to make up for it.
Even though Ashton and Sean were used to the double standard, they couldn’t help but twitch their lips in frustration. Still, they agreed with Jacob’s sentiment. Their precious sister deserved nothing but the best. “Alright, Yvie.” Jacob took the black card and pushed it back into her hand. “It’s getting late, so you should get some rest now.”
Yvette could only tuck the black card back into her pocket. She felt warm and fuzzy inside as she smiled
at Jacob.
“Thank you!”
As Yvette walked away, Jacob remembered something he had forgotten to mention. “I just received news from Adam–he’s coming back to Jubilife.” Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Ashton and Sean asked in unison, “Is he done with his mission?”
Jacob nodded. “Yes. You two should go pick him up.”
Ashton’s and Sean’s faces immediately darkened. They didn’t want to be put through the rigorous training that their strict brother would surely impose.
“What about you, Jacob?” Sean asked.
“Yeah. Why aren’t you coming with us to pick Adam up?” Ashton added.
Jacob didn’t even blink as he replied with conviction, “I’m staying here to accompany Yvie.”
He would never give the old pervert Wilson the chance to get close to Yvette again. The nerve of him to mock Jacob for being a rich fool moments ago.
Jacob narrowed his eyes menacingly. If he allowed Wilson to approach Yvette again, he would be foolish
indeed.
Feeling frustrated, Ashton protested, “We want to stay and be with Yvie too! You’re sending us away so you have Yvie all to yourself. That’s so unfair!”
Sean added, “Exactly. Jacob, you’re so unreasonable. We oppose this decision.”
Jacob shot them a cold glare before using his seniority to suppress them. “It’s useless to oppose. The decision is final.” He had to ensure that he was Yvette’s favorite brother.
Wilson casually leaned against the car. His deep, almond–shaped eyes were fixed on a distant room, his long fingers playing with a lighter.
He only withdrew his gaze when he saw the lights in Yvette’s room go out.
“Keep a close eye on Mrs. Murray’s actions these next few days,” Wilson instructed coldly.
Although Samuel was puzzled, he immediately responded respectfully, “Yes, Mr. Quinn.”
Wilson then tossed the lighter into the trash without even lighting a cigarette. He then turned to get into
the car.
Wilson quickly came to understand the hierarchy within the Murray family. Yvette and Yara belonged to the top tier, while the five sons occupied the lowest tier.
As long as Yara approved of his marriage to Yvette, Jacob and the others would have no choice but to agree, regardless of their objections..
