Abandoned Super Cutie Adopted by Billionaire Clan novel Chapter 33

Chapter 33

Marian’s face went pale at lan’s cold and merciless words.

She stared at him, disbelief written all over her small, delicate features

Why is he treating me like this? I’ve already apologized–why is he still being to hostile? the wondered.

Nina felt embarrassed at the tense exchange. She noticed Mariani’s stricken expression and quickly placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder, silently urging her not to say anything more that might offend lan

It was clear–he didn’t like Marian

If Marian kept pushing, she would only humiliate herself further.

Forcing a polite smile, Nina turned to lan. “I’m sorry, Mr. Holmes, but I think it’s best if we leave now. Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Unlike his clear disdain for Marian, lan held no ill will toward Nina. He returned her with an equally courteous nod.

Without another word, Nina took Marian’s hand and led her out of the jewelry store after leaving an address with the store clerk.

The moment they stepped outside, Nina’s smile faded, and she spoke in a firm, quiet voice. “Marian, Mr. Holmes doesn’t like

you.

“From now on, when you see him, just say hello and leave it at that. No more unnecessary conversation, understood?”

Marian’s face, already pale, turned even paler.

“But, Mom,” she protested, her voice laced with frustration. “I just wanted to apologize-

“There’s no need for that,” Nina shook her head, her tone unusually sharp. “If he doesn’t speak to you first, don’t speak to

him

Nina rarely used such a harsh tone.

Marian pursed her lip, knowing Nina was upset.

Still, deep inside, resentment simmered. ‘Why can’t I even talk? I’m always being controlled. It isn’t fair! she thought.

She thought, ‘And the worst part? My mother isn’t on my side. Instead of standing up for me, she’s taking lan’s side—an outsider’s side.

Of course, Marian wouldn’t say any of this out loud. She still needed to stay in the Yates family’s good graces.

So after a while, when she felt Nina had calmed down, she sniffled and mumbled a pitiful apology.

Seeing her dejected expression, Nina finally relented, her irritation fading.

Meanwhile, as Ian and Victor finally left the mall, they checked their phones and realized it was already 7:30 PM.

Yvonne was growing anxious. Unlike them, she had no intention of taking her sweet time getting home.

Kelvin was already back home. When he walked into the living room, he thought he’d stepped into the wrong house. The entire space was filled with bags, boxes, and an absurd number of packages.

It didn’t take long to find out what had happened–Ian and Victor had taken Yvonne out shopping.

Kelvin frowned. He wondered when those two got so close to his daughter.

He had been waiting for nearly an hour when Yvonne finally arrived.

But fan and Victor didn’t come in. Instead, they hopped back into the car and drove off, determined to transport the flowers. they’d got from Yvonne back to their own homes.

As soon as Yvonne stepped inside, she was met with the sight of piles of shopping bags and a group of maids sorting through them.

She sighed and turned her head stiffly, only to lock eyes with Kelvin.

“Dad…” she whimpered, trudging toward him.

Dat1…”

After an entire day with lan and Victor, she was utterly exhausted. She dragged her small frame over to Kelvin and flopped against his leg.

“So… tired…” she said, her voice barely above a whisper.

Kelvin cupped her little face in his hands, frowning slightly.

“What happened?” He brushed a thumb gently across her cheek, his voice low and soothing.

Yvonne buried her face against his leg, sighing heavily. “Ian and Victor…”

She wanted to complain, but there was just too much to say.

She thought, “Those two were impossible! They argued nonstop, refused to listen to reason, and kept dragging me around!”

Kelvin didn’t need an explanation.

He had known Ian and Victor since childhood. They had always been lively troublemakers–so it was no surprise that they still made a chaotic pair.

And poor Yvonne, being so young and naïve, was like a helpless little lamb thrown into a den of wolves.

‘My poor girl,’ Kelvin thought.

Meanwhile, Ian had driven through the night to deliver the flowers to Strate City.

When he arrived at the Holmes family estate, he immediately began directing the servants to move the potted plants inside. “Be careful with those,” he instructed.

The Holmes family butler was already in his clothes when he heard the commotion. He hurried outside. “Mr. Holmes, why

are you

back at this hour?”

Ian carried a particularly delicate vase himself. Even through the protective wrapping, the faint scent of flowers seeped into the air.

The butler inhaled deeply, his sharp nose picking up the floral scent. His eyes lit up in excitement. “Wait… is this the same flower from last time?”

Ian’s lips curled into a satisfied grin. “Of course. Oh, by the way, where’s my sister?”

“She has already gone to bed,” the butler replied, falling into step beside him. “The flowers you brought last time were more effective than any sleep aid she’s ever tried…

Chapter 33

The ones from Yvonne’s collection not only smelled incredible but also lasted much longer than normal flowers,

But the ones he had previously gifted were already starting to wither.

“I brought plenty this time. And I got two extra potted plants,” Ian added. “Make sure they’re placed by her bedside when she wakes up.”

The butler was overjoyed. “Mr. Holmes, this is wonderful!”

Then, as if struck by a thought, he hesitated. “But… where exactly did you get these? From Blorence City?

“Maybe we could contact the seller and arrange a steady supply. That way, you wouldn’t have to keep traveling back and forth.”

Ian’s smile deepened, shaking his head. “That won’t be possible,” he said cryptically. “But don’t worry–I’ve found a reliable

source.”

The butler was dying of curiosity but knew better than to push for answers. He simply nodded and followed Ian into the house.
