Billionaire Defiant Wife

Chapter 760: She Knew It



Chapter 760: She Knew It

Yuki screamed as she stepped back, "Bitch, how dare you! How dare you approach me!" She looked horrified.

She was on the verge of a breakdown!

It surprised Yuki that that Bitch would accuse her!

Avery stood by the door, watching it happening and doing nothing. She suddenly added, "Yuki is just a dancing girl. If she stashed weapons with her, Mr. Black might behead you."

Yuki yelled, "Bitch! Stop casting spells on them and making them believe you! You should grab her instead of me!"

Everyone in Ink House could hear Yuki's roaring. Far in the distance, someone greeted, "Your Highness."

They looked over, and the maids charged out from inside the house. One maid said, "Your Highness, Mr. Black has been waiting for you. She sends me to lead you. Please follow me."

Yuki saw the maid like a life savior. She hurried to scream, "How about me? Didn't Mr. Black ask you to invite me as well? Take me inside too."

The maid said, "Please, Mr. Yuki, follow me."

Yuki gloated at the royal guard. She said braggingly, "Do you hear that? Maeve is dying to see me. If you don't step aside, I'll tell her to fire you."

The guard had no reason to stop Yuki since the maid came over to invite her in. They stepped aside to let Yuki through.

Yuki held her chin up and walked right in front of the guard to avenge the insult. Then she followed the maid.

Avery walked ahead of Yuki. She kept staring at the back of Avery's head hideously and harshly. She wished she could tear her into pieces!

Avery felt how unkind the look was. She didn't have to look back to know who it belonged to.

But Avery wasn't interested in talking to Yuki. She followed the maid closely.

Soon, they arrived at the dining room of the Ink House.

Ink House was designed in European style. Hanging down from the ceiling was a gigantic Swarovski chandelier. It gave off warm yellow light which shines on pure bone china. The reflection of the light was dazzling.

In the corner of the dining room was phonography. The music was old yet lovely. It linked one busy figure with another.

The maids all hold trays of various dishes, and some held red wine which has been sobered up. Everyone acted carefully in the case to be punished with one error.

Maeve Black wasn't to be seen in the dining room. Avery asked the captain of the guard, "Where is Mr. Black?"

The captain answered, "Mr. Black is applying make-up."

Avery was speechless because she was sure the maid told her she was expecting them.

Yuki was pleased to hear that. She hurried to say, "I'll see her."

Mr. Black said, "No need." She finally showed up, slowly descending the stairs wearing a silver tight mermaid skirt with gauze. She said apologizing, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

Yuki answered, "It's okay, Maeve. We are not here long."

Maeve looked at the door. She said with disappointment, "Where is George? Isn't he here? Doesn't anybody come to invite him over? Oh, he must be getting ready to see me."

Maeve asked and answered her own question. Then she stopped talking and looked at Avery. She checked her out and said, "Your Highness, do you wear the long robe for the party?"

Women in the Ancient Country were conservative. They wore long robes not to reveal any skin. But although Avery was wearing a long robe, Maeve felt outshined because of Avery's feminine vibe.

At the time, one maid came. She greeted Maeve and said to Avery, "Your Highness, Mr. Lautner said he picked up something that belongs to you. He asked me to give it back to you."

Then the maid handed Avery over a gift bag.

Avery slightly hesitated. They were together not long ago. How come she didn't know if she lost anything?

And George chose to give it to her when Maeve was present. He must be deliberate.

Avery glanced at Maeve and took the bag.

It was a pink gift bag with a delicate bow tie in the opening.

Avery didn't know what it was. Although she was curious, she couldn't open it in front of everyone. She took one peek inside and turned unhappy at once.

She knew it!

She knew that George did it on purpose!

Was it interesting to make fun of her?

Why wasn't George afraid at all? How dare he put the black lace lingerie she put in his pocket the last time in the bag?

Did George have it with him since then?

What was he doing? He knew what Maeve...

Avery started making all kinds of connections. She couldn't think straight. She looked at Maeve, and she was curious. Maeve said, "Your Highness, what do you lose that Mr. Lautner is lucky to pick up?"

Avery clenched her fingers and squeezed the bag tightly. She couldn't say it was sexy lingerie, could she?

So she said, "It's normal stuff. Miss Black, you won't be interested in it."

Yuki said, "Maeve, is George not coming?"

Maeve answered, "Why do you think so?" She put her hand on the handrail and clenched it.

Yuki said, "If George wants to come over, why doesn't he bring the gift to Her Highness on his own? Why does he go to so much trouble?"

Maeve said, "Maybe he doesn't want to cause any misunderstanding. Her Highness is married." Maeve shrugged and gave the answer she felt was right.

Yuki didn't believe that Maeve wasn't interested in what the bag contained. She had an idea and whispered, "What if it's a knife or a gun that might hurt Maeve?"

Maeve smiled. She was thinking about what excuse she should use to see what was inside the bag. Who knew that Yuki did her a favor and found such a reasonable excuse.

Maeve nodded at Yuki. Yuki was thrilled to get her recognition. She said, "Your Highness, please. We need to check what's inside the bag."

Avery held the bag naturally like it couldn't be normal.

But how could Avery show everybody such private things?

Avery said, "This is private. I'm sure when the maid took it in, the guard already checked it with some device. It should be okay. Or they wouldn't let the maid through. But someone comes in although there's something wrong about it. That's a different story."

Afterward, Avery turned her sight to Yuki's breasts lightly.

Yuki felt guilty because she had a breast job. Somehow, she felt insulted and went so mad that her face turned red. She said, "Nonsense! Maeve, don't be misled by Avery! What if it's poison in the form of powder? The device won't detect them."

Compared with Yuki, Maeve was much calmer. She twisted her waist, fully displaying her charm. The dress wiggled on her body, and she looked like a water snake that has been cultivating vital energy for thousands of years.

Maeve's vision landed on the paper bag Avery was holding. She said, "If the bag doesn't contain anything dangerous, I think, Your Highness, it's okay to show us, right? Unless it's something improper?"
