SWNOVELS Chapter 188
"Yvie..." Sensing her hesitation, Wilson narrowed his eyes. He then leaned in closer to her. "They've apologized. Don't give me the silent treatment anymore.
The hint of grievance in his tone made Yvette's lips curve into a faint smile. Finally, she nodded. "Alright."
Clearly pleased, the man beamed. He casually took Yvette's hand and led her out.
Just as they stepped outside the room, an angry voice rang out.
"Damn it! Matt was the one who begged you to join Jubilife University. Now, the head of the Department of Medicine bullied you instead!" Gabriel had rushed over as soon as he heard the news. He was furious. "Don't worry, Yvie. I'll make sure to settle this for you!"
He was not about to let the Pianist Association's treasure suffer such indignity!
Seeing Gabriel so worked up, Yvette felt a warm sensation in her heart. She softly reassured him, "It's already been taken care of, Uncle Gabriel. You don't have to be upset."
"It's been taken care of?" Gabriel quickly asked, "Yvie, was it handled fairly? Did you suffer any injustice?"
Yvette shook her head and calmly replied, "No, I didn't."
She wasn't one to suffer quietly!
"Good, as long as you're okay." Gabriel sighed in relief. Then, he immediately started grumbling again.
"When Matt returns, I will give him a piece of my mind. How could he let you get bullied like this on his watch? Useless!"
Suddenly, he tumed back to Yvette with a bright smile and said in an ingratiating tone. "So, Yvie, how about coming back to the Pianist Association? Everyone misses you!"
A hint of exasperation appeared in Yvette's eyes. "Uncle Gabriel, I guess that's your real motive for coming today, huh?" Yvette knew Gabriel wanted to bring her back to the Pianist Association! Getting exposed, Gabriel chuckled awkwardly. He said in an even pore flattering tone, "Well, I guess so. But mostly, I was angry and stand up for you!"
"When are we leaving?"
Wilson tightened his grip on Yvette's hand. His cold and unfriendly gaze landed on Gabriel
He wondered who gave Gabriel the right to call Yvette "Yvie".
Only then did Gabriel notice the man standing beside Yvette. He was holding her hand so intimately. He immediately snapped at Gabriel, "So, you're the bastard trying to steal away our Yvie?"
