Chapter Secrets Of Mrs 355
was ruthless. After tonight, the Steel Serpents will be crippled, and their internal conflict will last for years.]
Before Yvette could reply, Eagle King impatiently sent another text. [Boss, someone's completely bloodied the Steel Serpents, setting fire to their headquarters. Ybaulla's in chaos tonight. Tomorrow's newspaper headlines will be all about this, no doubt. Whoever did this The Steel Serpents were a powerful and complicated force. With Larry dead, chaos was inevitable.
Yvette curled up in the passenger seat. After reading the texts, she glanced at Jeremiah, who was driving. His blue eyes reflected a casual indifference. She smiled and asked, "Was it you?"
Jeremiah's hand paused slightly on the steering wheel, but his face remained unchanged as he calmly replied. "Hmm." Then, in a deep voice, he added. "You kill, I set the fire. We're a match made in heaven."
Jeremiah's serious expression as he said this left Charles, sitting in the backseat, utterly bewildered. 'I've never heard of killing and arson being described as 'a match made in heaven.! These two are in a league of their own when it comes to how they 'date'!' Yvette looked at Jeremiah and nodded. "Hmm, next time, you do the killing, and I'll set the fire. Let's be fair about it."
Charles was speechless.
The next day in Skyland, Andrew rushed into the living room, holding a newspaper and panting. "Another major news story! Jeremiah, Yve, Kaiden are dead! They were found dead in their hotel last night, and their bodies were already stiff this morning. They looked terrifying! Also, the Steel Serpents were burned down! It's all over the world news. I wonder which big shot did this; it's unbelievable!" While saying this, Andrew made a face to try to scare the others in the living room.
However, Yvette, Jeremiah, Charles, and Samantha, who had been there since morning, didn't even look at him, each engrossed in their own activities, showing no surprise at what Andrew had said.
Andrew was confused. 'Isn't this news explosive? Isn't it exciting? Why is this group so unresponsive? Jeremiah and Yve are one thing, but Charles and my sister are being too calm. There's definitely something going on!* Andrew cheekily sat next to Samantha and said, "Sis, Kaiden is dead, and it was really brutal."
Samantha looked especially stunning today in a Chanel-style outfit that highlighted her figure, with fiery red lips and an aura of sophistication. She was wearing 2-inch heels and sitting on the sofa, legs crossed, holding a tablet to check today's stock market trends. She turned her head to look at Andrew, nodding coolly. "Oh, I know. Kaiden is dead. Is there anything else? If not, don't bother me." After saying that, she clearly showed she didn't want to engage with Andrew and continued looking at her tablet.
Andrew thought, 'Actually, if this had happened normally, I would be surprised too, but I already guessed who did it. Yesterday, Yve and Jeremiah definitely interrogated those kidnappers of Mrs. Chavez from Ybaulla to find out who was behind it. Kaiden's death explains everything. This person is truly reckless. You'd think running into those two big shots would mean certain death, so Samantha shouldn't be surprised. Besides, it doesn't matter who burned down the Steel Serpents; we're all family, so who cares who did it...'
Andrew scratched his head, still not giving up, picked up the newspaper, and sat next to Charles again. He cleared his throat. "Charles, major news: Kaiden is dead, and the Steel Serpents were burned!"
Charles, putting down the financial magazine, looked calmer than Samantha and replied slowly, "Yeah, I know. No need to repeat it." 'How could I not know? I was the last person Kaiden saw before he died. And as for who burned down the Steel Serpents, I found that out last night too. It's not worth making a fuss over!
Andrew turned his gaze to Yvette, raising his eyebrows and cautiously starting. "Yvette, the mountain..." But as soon as he spoke, Yvette glanced at him, and Andrew swallowed the rest of his words, sitting down on the sofa feeling wronged. Andrew was now sure that these four were hiding something from him.
At the dining table, Jeremiah came out of the kitchen, placing a bowl of oatmeal with savory toppings in front of Yvette. "Eat it
while it's hot."
Samantha, Charles, and Andrew all looked at the steaming bowl of oatmeal in Yvette's hands, then glanced at their own bread, milk, and cold salad, feeling a pang of sadness. Breakfast had become a major disappointment these days because Yvette's bowl was always personally made by Jeremiah, while Charles and the others bought theirs from outside.
After Yvette finished her oatmeal, Jeremiah naturally sat beside her.

Ignoring the others' gazes, Yvette calmly finished her oatmeal, put down the bowl, stood up, and casually said to Jeremiah, "Let's go back to the Chavez family." Jeremiah nodded. "Okay."
This was a plan they made yesterday. If it hadn't been so late and Aurora hadn't been too tired to sleep, they would have returned to the Chavez family old manor already.

After finishing her breakfast, Samantha stood up and said to the two, "Jeremiah, Yve, my house in Skyland is renovated now. Starting tomorrow, we'll be neighbors." She even winked at Yvette.
Jeremiah's expression darkened. 'Just because it's renovated doesn't mean they can live there.'
Samantha speculated. 'If all goes well, Skyland will definitely be Jeremiah and Yve's marital home; if they don't take advantage of this opportunity now, when will they?'
Hearing this, Andrew quickly swallowed his bread and said with a smile, "Jeremiah, Yve, I'd like to officially inform you that my villa, Andrew's, is in the third building next door. It's also ready for moving in tomorrow."
The next moment, Charles leisurely finished the last sip of his milk and softly said to Yvette, "Yve, a few days ago I bought a house; there just happened to be an idle villa in Skyland for only 10 million dollars. I thought it was pretty cheap, so I bought one too. I'll be moving out tomorrow; it's not far from here."
Andrew and Samantha exchanged surprised looks. 'This guy is definitely up to something; he secretly bought a house in Skyland. His intentions are too obvious. Thankfully, my sister and I already bought our villa in Skyland.
Jeremiah and Yvette watched the three of them, feeling a bit of a headache for the first time. 'Why don't they understand that distance can create beauty?'
At the Chavez family old manor, as soon as Yvette entered the door, Aurora, who was standing in the living room, immediately collapsed onto the sofa, looking extremely weak, a stark contrast to how she had just been with Clifford.
Clifford looked at Aurora, who had just been scolding him, suddenly weak on the sofa, feeling confused. He thought it was the aftereffect of being kidnapped yesterday and rushed to hold her, saying, "Honey, honey, what's wrong? Please don't scare me! Let's go to the hospital right away!"
Aurora pinched his thigh, lay in his arms, blinked, and softly said, "I'm fine. My daughter-in-law is here. I'm just putting on an act so she'll spend more time with me. You better not spoil it; otherwise, I'll make you pay!" SEND GIFT
