Talented Heiress A Rose with Thorns (Yvette and Wilson) novel Chapter 885

Hearing the severity of Wilson's voice, warmth filled Yvette's heart.

She nodded. "Mm."

Seeing Yvette behave so obediently, Wilson's eyes revealed a faint smile, but he quickly became serious again.

"Next time, don't stand in front of me."

When she stood in front of him earlier, he felt an unprecedented panic. Thankfully, Theodore hadn't fired! If he had hurt her…

Just thinking about it made Wilson's heart race, even causing him to feel fear for the first time.

"You'll stand in front of me but won't let me protect you?"

Looking at the worry in his eyes, the warmth in Yvette's heart deepened. She wrapped her pale arms around his neck.

"Will, I want to protect you too."

The way she sweetly and softly called his name made Wilson's gaze darken instantly, his Adam's apple moving uncontrollably.

She really knows how to lower his defense…

Yvette rarely called him "Will", and Wilson couldn't help but feel the urge to do something. But when he saw the exhaustion in her eyes, he couldn't bring himself to tease her.

Instead, he gently placed a kiss on her forehead and coaxed softly. "Baby, call me that again."

Yvette's ears turned slightly red, and she refused to speak again.

Knowing that Yvette was shy, Wilson didn't push her. He took the ointment from the medical kit, gently rolled up her pants, and applied it to her.

Yvette quietly watched him, her lips curling into a small smile.

"All done." After applying the medicine, Wilson looked at her with a tender, affectionate gaze. "Baby, go rest for a bit. When dinner is ready, I'll call you."

"Yvie, come with us. As for the others, they're not allowed inside."

What was going on?

Suppressing the turbulent emotions inside her, Yvette turned to Wilson beside her and said, "You wait outside for me."

"Okay."

Wilson felt his unease deepen, but he didn't show it.

As he watched Yvette and the others leave, Apollo silently appeared by his side, his expression grave as he made a report.
