Talented Hairess A Rose with Thorns (Yvette and Wilson)

Chapter 698

lan finally fully accepted Ellen as his new partner as well.

Xavier was waiting outside the research institute the entire time. When he saw the exhaustion on Yvette's face, he immediately handed her the milk and desserts he had prepared in advance.

"Eat something to replenish your energy first, Yvie

Looking at the milk and desserts in Xavier's hands Yvette was unwittingly reminded of a certain womanizer who also used to wait hours for her outside the research institute. He would always have her favorite food prepared for when she came out... Yvette's eyes darkened. She shook her head in refusal. "Thanks, but there's no need. I don't have much appetite right now."

"Alright, Yvie. Just eat when you feel like it." Xavier didn't insist any further. Instead, he asked gently, "Shall I drive you to school, Yvie?"

Yvette unconsciously opened her mouth to refuse, but Ellen was quicker and agreed in her stead. Alright, Xavier, I leave Yvie to you!" Yvette was bewildered. When did she even agree to it?

Noticing her look, Ellen snickered at her.

"Just take Xavier's car, sweetie," she whispered in her ear. "This way, I can get lan to send me home! I have to spend lots of time with lan so that I'll be able to become family with you in the future, Yvie!" Yvette could only agree helplessly. "Alright."

Just like that, lan's future was laid out for him without his knowledge.

Once in Xavier's car, Yvette pulled out her phone only to see notifications for over a hundred messages on the screen. However, there were no messages from a certain man.

She pursed her lips and stowed her phone away, suppressing the annoyance surging in her heart.

Anyone who was familiar with Yvette would be able to tell that she was currently in an extremely bad mood. In fact, it probably couldn't get any worse than that.

Xavier's eyes darkened, and his hostility toward Wilson further increased. Yvette had never allowed anything or anyone to affect her, but now Wilson was able to affect her this much...

He quickly quashed his raging jealousy. He adjusted the music player to play soft, slow music, still keeping up a gentle appearance.

"It'll take some time to get from the research institute to Jubilife University. You can nap awhile

in the car, Yvie."

Yvette was indeed quite tired. She hadn't rested last night and spent four hours in the laboratory today on top of that. Even a tough person would find it hard to endure. Therefore, she didn't reject Xavier's suggestion and instead closed her eyes for a nap.

Only when he was sure that she was sound asleep did Xavier turn his loving gaze on her. He was the one who first became acquainted with her and also the one who was always silently protecting her. Why was Wilson, the latecomer, the one to win her affections? A dark expression flashed across his face. He would slowly heart!

Yvette didn't sleep well this time either, waking up not too long after. She looked out the window and could immediately see Jubilife University.

Xavier's voice rang out, steady and

hurried. "I saw that you weren't awake yet, so I wanted to let

you rest for a little more."

"Sorry for troubling you, Xav."

His heart constricted upon hearing her polite yet distant tone. When had she become so distant

from him?

Yvette didn't notice his strange reaction. "I'll be heading to class."

Xavier only retracted his gaze once she was long out of sight. Then he glanced down at the phone left behind on the passenger seat and placed it in his pocket.

He'd come over to return it to her later after her classes were over...
