“Why are you being so polite, Mrs. Murray?” Wilson flashed a charming smile, maintaining his respectful and courteous demeanor–the kind of behavior elders most appreciated. “I’m glad you like it.”
Yara was even happier with the flattery and said with a hint of a smile, “Yvie, since you’re with my son–in- law Wilson now, why not invite him over to our place for dinner?”
“Alright, mom.” Yvette agreed obediently.
After ending the call, she couldn’t help but look at the man beside her with a puzzled expression in her. When did you manage to get my mom to like you so much?”
Previously, Yara didn’t like him at all, but now she even called him her son–in–law.
Wilson’s slender fingers brushed gently against Yvette’s face and smiled lazily at her. “I just cleared up some misunderstandings your mother had about me,” he said in his deep, magnetic voice.

At the Murray Manor, as soon as Yara hung up the phone, Adam rushed over. “Mom, when is Yvie coming back?” he asked anxiously.
He was eager to see his sister.
“Why are you in such a hurry!” Seeing Adam so anxious, Yara couldn’t help but smile wryly. “Yvie said she’d be home soon, so don’t worry. You’ll see her in a bit!”
Adam couldn’t help but smile upon hearing that.
To make a good impression on Yvette, he had changed his clothes and styled his hair. Worried that his facial injuries might scare her, he had covered them all with band–aids.
“Ugh, didn’t you used to say that only a weakling would put band–aids on his face?”
“Yeah, exactly. Didn’t you used to hate putting band–aids on your face?”
Hearing the teasing from Ashton and Sean, Adam shot them an annoyed glance. “What do you know? I’m worried that my injuries might scare Yvie!”
They all said that Yvette was sweet and delicate. What if she got frightened by his battered face?
When Adam thought of seeing Yvette soon, his stern expression softened slightly. “I’m warning you two- when Yvie arrives, keep your distance and don’t try to steal her from me! You two have already spent a lot of time with her. It’s my turn now!”
“No way!” Ashton and Sean protested immediately. “Adam, Yvie isn’t just your sister. Why can’t we get close to her?”
Having Jacob trying to monopolize Yvie was already annoying enough; now, with Adam doing the same, they’d have even less of a chance to be with her!
“You don’t like it?” Adam raised an eyebrow defiantly. “If you want, we can settle this with a few rounds in the boxing ring. If you win, I’ll listen to you.”
Ashton and Sean fell silent instantly, not daring to say a word. Neither of them wanted to get beaten up.
Jacob exerted pressure through his status in the family, while Adam enforced it through physical strength. Seeing their reaction, Adam chuckled smugly, but then he received a call from his team member.
“Captain, we just received news that the master of the underworld, Master Xev, has appeared at the
underground boxing arena!”
“Got it,” Jacob’s expression became serious immediately. “I’ll get there as fast as I can.”
