Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

"Between me and Wilson, whose orders will you listen to from now on?" asked Yvette slowly.

Apollo didn't even blink at the dangerously tricky question, immediately proclaiming his loyalty by saying firmly, "Of course I'll obey your orders!"

Wilson had even given up the Shadow Alliance's intercontinental ballistic missiles to coax her out of her anger, which just went to show where he stood between him and Yvette! Obviously, he was going to side with her!

"Very good." Yvette nodded in satisfaction, her lips curving up in a smile.

"I'll look after you from now on!" she added.

"Thank you very much, Ms. Yvette!" Apollo replied in relief.

He then continued, more and more eager to please, "Boss is in his study right now. Should I escort you over there?"

"Mhm, let's go."

In the study, Samuel was reporting respectfully to Wilson. "Mr. Quinn, Ms. Granger is requesting an audience," he announced.

"Hmm?" Wilson's eyes narrowed slightly, after which he nodded. "Lead her in." "Yes, Mr. Quinn!" replied Samuel.

He quickly proceeded to lead Skyla into the study.

She greeted, "Boss..."

The man in front of her exuded a cold and dignified air that gave her goosebumps and brought her a sense of fear. However, when she recalled that the person she liked was currently in danger and could lose his life at any moment, she forcefully suppressed her fear and spoke up anyway.

"Boss, I'm here today to ask a favor of you," she began.

Wilson's cool gaze fell on her at her words, and his voice was cold as he asked, "What is it?"

The Grangers, had served under him for many years and were extremely loyal to the Shadow Alliance. At the

same time, they always kept to.

arrogantly nor attempted to flaunt their achievements. Therefore, so long as her request wasn't

outrageous, he didn't mind granting it.

"The person who blew up Kaiser Casino..."

Skyla trailed off, biting her lip, before she finally gathered the courage to finish.

"Please spare his life, Boss, and give him to me as a reward!"

As soon as the words left her mouth, the room fell into dead silence.

From where he was standing nearby, Samuel's thoughts were racing. Yvette had been the one to blow up both the arms factory and the casino, so Skyla was pleading for Wilson to hand over his future wife to her? sŵnovel

Wilson's handsome face instantly darkened, and he started giving off a dangerous air. "What did you say?"

Feeling the unseen pressure he was exerting, she was so scared that she trembled. Still, she said, "I like him,

so I'm begging you to spare his life on behalf of the Grangers and give him to me as a reward!"

As soon as she finished speaking, it was as if the temperature in the room rapidly dropped, making those inside feel as if they were currently experiencing winter.

Skyla trembled even harder. She didn't understand why Wilson's expression looked even scarier after what she said.

"Please allow me to meet him, Boss..."

Skyla's words made the hairs on the back of Samuel's neck rise. He felt nervous and scared at the continuously darkening expression on Wilson's face.

This eldest daughter of the Granger family was truly brave for asking Wilson to give her Yvette. This was the first time he'd seen someone who dared to challenge Wilson for his future wife!noveldrama

At that point, Yvette had already arrived in the doorway. When she overheard the conversation happening in the study, she rubbed her chin in thought.

Wasn't she the one who had blown up the Shadow Alliance's casino?
