Chapter 52
His eyes widened in disbelief when he met Yvette’s clear and indignant gaze. She didn’t just look like Yvette Snyder; she was. Yvette Snyder!
Tristan had no idea why she was here for the blind date. Before he could come to his senses, Yvette told Ray, “Let’s go.” Ray then
escorted her out of the room.
The man who had been kicked to the ground, Ethan Zamora, was still cursing, “Don’t you dare run away! I won’t forget the two of you. Just you wait!”
The other young men mocked him.
“You’re such a coward, Mr. Zamora. Why didn’t you fight back?”
“Exactly, stop yapping!”
Ethan had wanted to take a swing at Ray as well, but he hadn’t even been able to stand up after Ray had kicked him earlier. He had been pampered all his life and had never been humiliated like this before.
Scrambling to his feet, he cursed under his breath, “I’ll round up my men and send them to those two doom right-”
Before he could finish his threat, Tristan walked up to him and looked at him coldly. “What did you do to her just now?”
“That bit-” Ethan started, but before he could finish, Tristan’s bodyguards started punching him in the face. Before long, he was knocked to the ground, spitting blood, and still clueless about what he’d done wrong.
”
The young men around them were all struck silent. Tristan looked down at Ethan condescendingly and asked Avery, “What did he do?”
Avery recounted how Ethan had tried to humiliate Yvette.

“I guess he doesn’t need his hands anymore.” Tristan was no longer in the mood to continue the blind dates. He headed out to find Yvette. As he walked away, he could hear Ethan begging for mercy behind him.
The other trust fund kids were in awe; they wondered who that woman was to be worth Tristan’s anger. It seemed like Ethan was going to meet his downfall that day!
When Tristan walked out of Plate & Palette, Yvette was nowhere to be seen. He clenched his fists, regretting how he hadn’t taken a good look at the women who had shown up that day.
He had only come to put on a show for Archibald and humiliate the women who wanted to marry into his family, hoping to discourage them from agreeing to blind dates in the future. He hadn’t expected
to…
“Find out how Ms. Torres is connected to Yvette.”
Avery hastily responded, “Understood.”
Tristan pondered for a moment before adding, “Also, who was the man beside her?”
Meanwhile, Yvette was already seated in the car. She was a little annoyed, as she hadn’t expected Kiki’s blind date to be Tristan.
She was aware that Tristan despised her, and now that he’d seen her standing in for Kiki, she wondered what he’d do to her. Yvette was worried that she’d gotten Kiki involved in trouble.
“Are you okay, Mom? Zachary’s voice snapped her out of her thoughts.
Yvette smiled and said, “I’m okay, thanks to Mr. Septer.”

After thanking Ray, Zachary gently hugged Yvette. “It’s a shame that I’m still too young. When I grow up, I’ll protect you and Mr. Septer.”
Ray’s stern expression softened slightly. Yvette felt a warm current in her heart. “Alright, Mr. Septer and I will wait for you to grow up.”
Yvette was aware that Xavier’s bodyguards were constantly keeping an eye on her, so after she left Plate & Palette, she went straight to Kiki’s villa.
After having lunch and making sure Zachary was settled, Yvette headed out to Titan Corporation to meet Xavier.
