Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez

Chapter 695

Camden had originally braved his way here to seek justice for Yelena. Before seeing Jeremiah, he still had some confidence, but now, upon seeing him walk into the conference room, he lacked the courage to even make eye contact.

Yelena's eyes brightened with a sense of longing when she saw Jeremiah. However, her gaze quickly darkened, filled with resentment. The image of Jeremiah watching her heartlessly being humiliated by Yvette in Spaunia lingered in her mind, a memory she could never shake off.

Jeremiah confidently strode to the central seat and sat down. As soon as he took his seat, the others followed suit, returning to their positions. The room fell into a heavy silence.

Jeremiah sat in the central seat, his gaze dark and expressionless. His chiseled features exuded a cold, stern aura. As long as Jeremiah remained silent, the other officials present for the hearing dared not speak.

Jeremiah's cold gaze landed on Camden and Yelena, then swept over the others in the conference room. His voice was calm as he spoke. "Let's begin."

The three simple words made everyone in the room shiver. Jeremiah's aura was as cold as ice. Only Tim calmly took a sip of coffee, unaffected by the intense atmosphere.

A middle-aged man stood up from the left side of the room. He was the officer specifically assigned to handle Yelena's case. Due to Yvette's special status, the higher-ups decided not to let Betrico Police Station handle it; instead, they sent a designated official. After all, Yvette was also an Interpol officer, apart from being the future matriarch of the Chavez family. Betrico Police Station lacked the authority to handle such a case internationally

The middle-aged man, Joshua Zahn, picked up the medical diagnosis report, proving that Yelena had sustained serious injuries. Everyone in the room also had a copy of the hospital's diagnosis report in front of them.

Joshua seriously addressed Jeremiah and the rest of the people in the room, "Mr. Chavez, this is the diagnostic report issued by the hospital after Ms. Lynch returned from Spaunia. Her body did indeed suffer severe injuries, leaving irreversible damage. "Ms. Lynch promptly filed a lawsuit with the relevant authorities, and the defendant is your fiancée, Ms. Zeller.

"Given Ms. Zeller's position as an Interpol officer, the special nature of this case requires that we first hold a mediation session here in the First Military District before it is officially filed. May I ask, Mr. Chavez, if your fiancée can attend?"

Joshua knew perfectly well that Yvette had no intention of attending the meeting. Otherwise, she would have shown up by now, but he had no choice but to follow the formal procedure and ask anyway.

Jeremiah sat in his chair, his fingers flipping through the diagnosis report in front of him. His eyes were as cold as ice, his lips curling into a faint, mocking smile.

Yvette hadn't laid a hand on Yelena at all, but the very next day after Yelena returned to Betrico, she was able to produce such a diagnosis report. Yelena was truly willing to harm herself just to frame Yvette. Yelena was fully aware of how the diagnosis report came about and knew exactly how she had gotten the injuries on her body. In front of Jeremiah, she felt extremely guilty.

However, she desperately tried to hold it together and not show weakness. As long as she could firmly maintain that there was a relationship between Jeremiah and Yvette, then Jeremiah's testimony would be invalid. Jeremiah slowly set down the diagnosis report, raising his gaze. His eyes flickered, cold and deep. "There's no need for her to attend. My girlfriend doesn't have the time to deal with such trivial matters or irrelevant people." 1/3 Sat, Jan 4 Chapter 693

The others in the conference room exchanged glances, their lips twitching. Jeremiah's words were harsh. So, what was troubling the Lynch family had been nothing more than a trivial matter in his eyes. 94%

Tim gave a slight smile. When it came to the Chavez family, no one dared claim to be the first when it came to loving their wives.

Just look at how well Yvette lived-what other high-ranking officials' wives or aristocratic ladies in Betrico could live as comfortably as she did?

Yelena clenched her fists tightly, biting her lip as she thought, 'How cruel. Jeremiah is truly ruthless. Am I really that insignificant in his eyes?'

Yelena couldn't control her emotions any longer. She couldn't accept how Jeremiah was treating her. Losing control, she shouted, "Mr. Chavez, you are so biased toward your girlfriend! Don't you think it's unfair to me?

"I'm the victim here! Your girlfriend colluded with pirates in Spaunia and intentionally harmed me. And now, she won't even show up for this? Isn't that going too far?

"I just want an apology and justice. Yvette's behavior is outrageous. She's insulting the military officers of Clusia. Does Mr. Jase Chavez know that your girlfriend was fraternizing with those pirates in Spaunia?"

Yelena's words echoed in the quiet room, and she was pleased to see the shocked expressions on everyone's faces.

She knew about Yvette's status as an Interpol officer, so her goal was never to have Yvette imprisoned. Instead, she aimed to ruin her reputation completely, ensuring she could never marry into the Chavez family and become Jeremiah's wife.

If she couldn't have Jeremiah, then she wouldn't let someone like Yvette, a woman who appeared out of nowhere, take him. Yvette wasn't worthy of someone like Jeremiah. Only she, Yelena, was truly fit to be with him.

In the conference room; all eyes were on Jeremiah. His brows furrowed as he thought, 'How could Yvette possibly be connected to Spaunia pirates? It would be bad if this got out.

Jeremiah's eyes flashed with a dangerous glint. His voice was bloodthirsty. "My girlfriend knows Spaunia pirates? What does/

else? or anyone that have to do with you

"Don't talk about Spaunia pirates-if she knew the king himself, she would still be Yvette. She is the woman I, Jeremiah, have chosen for this lifetime, my fiancée, and my future wife."

Yelena's eyes widened in disbelief, her body trembling with fury. Even now, Jeremiah openly affirmed Yvette's identity in front of everyone without a hint of hesitation. She thought he must be out of his mind.

The others in the conference room were also taken aback by Jeremiah's words. They were now even more aware of Yvette's importance in his life.

He must care for her very much to defend her so openly. It seemed clear now that Jeremiah had firmly set his heart on her. Jeremiah then spoke with unwavering conviction. "During this mission in Spaunia, not a single Clusia military officer was lost, and no hostages were harmed. Every one of them returned to Betrico safe and sound.

"All of this is thanks to my fiancée, Yvette. Without her, this mission would not have been so successful.

"I hope everyone understands that whoever Yvette knows is her business. It's of no concern to anyone else, and no one has any right to criticize."

Jeremiah's powerful words left the conference room in complete silence. Camden reached out his faltering hand to hold back Yelena, who was losing control. He had initially assumed Jeremiah and Yvette were having a fling and didn't expect Jeremiah to take this girlfriend so seriously.

Camden knew what was at stake now, but it was too late.
