Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez



Yvette took the glass and politely nodded to Mario. "Thank you

Her gentle demeanor made Mario's hands tremble, and he quickly waved his hand nervously. "It's nothing, really," he replied respectfully

Mario glanced at Hendrick who was kneeling on the ground and at Dante and his crew. He sighed. With how things had escalated between Dante and Union Gang, it seemed like today would not end well.

Even if Dante killed Hendrick today, there was no way to hide it. If the people from Union Gang found out, how could they possibly let Dante and his crew go? There was also this mysterious couple.

Kneeling on the ground, Hendrick threatened Yvette and Jeremiah. "You'd better let me go. If our leader finds out, you're doomed. Even the Goodman family and the Seventy-Two Chambers don't dare mess with us. You're digging your own

grave.

Hendrick was terrified, so his only option was to bring up the Goodman family to intimidate them.

Yvette raised an eyebrow. Her eyes were cold and her voice was chilling as she asked, "The Goodman family and even the Seventy-Two Chambers are afraid of you guys? Do they know about this?"

As she spoke, Jeremiah walked up to Hendrick and casually crushed his hand underfoot.

Hendrick's fingers were broken one by one, and he let out a blood-curdling scream.

It sent shivers down Dante and his friends' spines, and the way they looked at Jeremiah instantly changed.

Jeremiah calmly returned to Yvette's side, narrowing his eyes as he said indifferently, "They're all broken"

Yvette lifted her gaze and sneered as she looked at Hendrick, who was dripping with cold sweat. "Not bad," she said softly and slowly.

Dante and the others clearly heard Yvette and Jeremiah's conversation.

Hendrick was in excruciating pain. His eyes filled with desperation when he heard them and he began to plead for mercy. "Let me go. I can pretend today never happened. Our Union Gang won't trouble you. I swear."

Seeing that threats weren't working, Hendrick opted for a softer approach, hoping to leave first and seek revenge later.

Yvette smirked, put her hands her pockets, and tilted her head Hendrick's words sounded awfully familiar, she had heard them multiple times over the years. They were so clichéd and unoriginal. Did she seem like the type who would believe

that?

She raised her delicate brows, looking wild and arrogant like a rebel. "Union Gang? What's that?"

Hendrick's face flushed with anger. Their gang was widely known in the southern region, so what was this woman trying to pull? He did not believe there was anyone in the region who did not know their gang.

Dante stepped forward when he heard Yvette's question. Looking at her seriously, he replied, "Sir, Miss, Union Gang is the second most powerful gang in the southern region. They make a living from protection fees, drug dealing, and trafficking

Women

"Lately, the entire underworld of Mysonna has been in chaos and Union Gang is trying to expand their territory by stirring up trouble everywhere. These people have no code of honor and commit all sorts of atrocities. Miss, you can't simply trust what Hendrick says."

Dante explained the the gang's background and the chaos in the southern region because he was betting that the man and Chapter 354

woman in front of himwere not ordinary people.

Maybe they were people he could never match up to. Maybe these noble and wealthy figures could bring him unexpected gains. Dante was taking a gamble.

Although he wasn't sure if he was right or not, life itself was a gamble. If he won, it would be a bright road ahead. If he lost, it would be a plunge into the abyss. Either way, he was game.

Mario remained silent. Seeing the ambition in Dante's eyes, he understood what Dante was thinking He glanced again at Yvette and Jeremiah as he wondered. 'Are they really people Dante can latch on to?'

When Hendrick heard Dante, he immediately started cursing, "Tuck yout. You're setting me up! I'm telling you, even if I die, your Pentagon Gang will always be a bunch of nobodies."

Dante glowered. He swung around and gave Hendrick a hard slap which made the corner of that man's mouth bleed.

Yvette watched Dante with interest. His gaze was determined and his ambitions were clear.

Her delicate face was cold, captivating, fierce, and wild. Looking at Dante, she slowly asked, "Do you want to be the leader of the southern region?" Jeremiah glanced at Yvette and understood her intention. He remained composed. Yvette could do whatever she wanted. If she wanted someone to be in charge of a mere southern region, then so be it.

Dante was stunned. He looked at Yvette in confusion, wondering what her question meant.

Everyone who came from the slums and hustled in the underworld wanted to be the leader of the southern region and become an important figure. However, no one had managed to reach that position for years.

There were many small gangs in the southern region, but none of them had made a name for themselves in the real underworld scene.

Even when the Goodman family unified the underworld gangs, they only incorporated the legitimate ones and did not care about the unruly and unorganized smaller ones. Because of this, they never intervened in the southern region's affairs.

It wasn't that the Goodman family did not dare deal with Union Gang. The family simply disdained the small gangs in the southern region, which gave Union Gang the opportunity to cause trouble during a lapse.

Dante was silent for a few seconds. He did not answer right away; but, when he looked up again, his gaze was even more determined than before. "Yes, Miss, I want to become the leader of the southern region." Dante spoke with utmost seriousness, his words firm and deliberate.

Yvette casually tucked her hands in her pockets, and a mischievous smile tugged at her lips. Her eyes were exquisite, but there was no warmth in them.

With a cold voice, she said, "What if I make you the leader of the southern region? What will you do?

Hendrick, who was kneeling on the ground, looked stunned. He started to wonder if Yvette was crazy.

He couldn't help but taunt, "Are you guys daydreaming? A poor kid from the slums wants to be the leader of the southern region? And you and your boyfriend... Stop thinking you're capable enough to say such things. Dream on!"

Not only Hendrick, the people from Pentagon Gang thought the same. 'Does this woman really think that being good at fighting automatically makes you the leader of the southern region?"

Truth be told, becoming the leader of the southern region was difficult. Dante realized he was being unrealistic; but since a girl dared to ask, why would he not dare answer?

Jeremiah tilted his head his blue eyes deep. "He's very suitable, he said calmly.

Considering how Dante jumped into the fight without hesitation, it was clear he was a decent person, Yvette nodded in agreement.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, she wordlessly pulled out her phone and pressed a few buttons at random. A call went through.

No one knew what to say. Yvette only said, "Come to the souther region, then hung up.

Not a single word was revealed regarding who was coming there.

After the call, Yvette turned and sat on the only blue plastic stool that was still intact. Jeremiah stood tall and poised beside her in a protective stance.

In the following moments, Dante seriously answered every question.

Yvette questioned him about his plans once he became the leader of the southern region.
