Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez by Selina Gorges

X Chapter 427 In the east yard of the Jacobs residence, Sheldon lay in bed, hearing the explosions outside. Panic gripped him, but his body wouldn't respond.

He had no feeling in his lower half and could only scream in desperation. He yelled for what felt like an eternity, but not a single maid cto his aid. Furious, Sheldon grabbed the vase from the bedside and threw it to the floor, shattering it into pieces.

Finally, the door creaked open. Sheldon's heart lifted, and he looked up, only to have his expression instantly darken when he saw who had entered. It was Janice, who had just run out of the crowd outside. Janice pushed the door open and walked toward the bed. Sheldon glared at her, seeing her cautious demeanor, and snapped. "What are you doing here? Who let you in? What's going on outside?" Janice studied Sheldon. He genuinely seemed to know nothing, so she took a few steps forward, her voice barely above a whisper, "You... you're not getting up? Don't you know what's happening outside?" Sheldon glared at Janice. If he could move, he would have slapped her. Janice comes all the way here in the middle of the night just to askthese stupid questions?' he wondered.

He shot her a look of contempt and growled. "Spit it out. What's happening outside?" away. If he had Janice confirmed that Sheldon truly had no idea his father had died and that the villagers had been taken known, he would not be so calm. It was also clear that something had happened to Sheldon's legs, and he couldn't move.

A sinister smile slowly crept across Janice's face as an idea took root in her mind. She had already made an enemy of Yvette, and simply leaving with them wouldn't do.

But since Yvette was willing to risk coming to Dungo Village for Bonnie, it meant she cared a lot about Bonnie. If that's the case, then I won't hold back. Bonnie's the softest-hearted one... Janice thought.

Sheldon, startled by Janice's smile, barked. "What are you doing now?" Janice fixed her gaze on Sheldon, her eyes deep like a phantom in the night. With malice in her voice, she said, "Sheldon, the Jacobs family is finished.

"Your father is dead, and the entire Dungo Village has been taken by the police. I guess you're too injured to move, huh?" Sheldon felt a shiver run down his spine at the crazed look in Janice's eyes. Summoning all his strength, he shouted at her. "Janice, stop making stuff up! Not a word of what you're saying is true. Who could've killed my father?" Deep down, Sheldon was also uncertain. 'If nothing happened to Dad, why hasn't anyone cto check onafter all this time?' Fear began to seep into him as he wondered.

Janice sneered. "Sheldon, if you weren't injured and could move you'd have cdown and slappedby now. Looks like you're seriously hurt.

"Huh, it's really about time, you bastard. You rapedwhen I was still a minor, and now it's tfor you to pay." Sheldon, propped up on his elbows, cursed at her. "Janice, you seducedfirst! Besides, after I slept with you, didn't you askfor 300 dollars? Now you're saying all this?" At that moment, Bonnie's voice called out from outside the door. "Yvette, Jeremiah, is Sheldon here?" Janice's heart hardened, and she pulled out a knife she had prepared earlier. She shouted, "Help!" before charging toward 1/3 15:48 Sun, Dec 1 3 Chapter 427 Sheldon and stabbing him directly in the heart.

59% Blood splattered across Janice's face. Sheldon gasped out. "You... but only managed one word before he died. Janice's twisted smile grew wider as she heard footsteps approaching the door. She quickly discarded the knife and collapsed onto the floor, clutching herself in feigned terror. "Help! Help! Don't cin!" Bonnie, hearing Janice's screams, rushed to push open the door. Yvette, Jeremiah, and Samantha followed close behind.

Bonnie froze when she saw the scene inside. She cried out in alarm and hurried to Janice's side. "Janice, what's wrong? What happened? Sheldon's dead!" Janice, still trembling in fear, clung to Bonnie tightly. "I... Sheldon tried to hit me. I just grabbed something in self- defense, but he accidentally stabbed himself. It has nothing to do with me! Please, you have to believe me, Bon." As Janice spoke, she kept an eye on Yvette and the others, gauging their reactions. When she saw Jeremiah, who was even more handsand charismatic than Andrew, her eyes lit up But when she noticed Yvette's face, there was a momentary flicker of unease. She quickly lowered her head. Yvette's gaze landed on the knife in Sheldon's chest for a moment before she casually looked over at Janice, who was crying pitifully. Her eyes were cold with a chilling resolve, Jeremiah stepped forward, taking her hand and speaking in a low, steady voice. "Given the depth of the knife wound, this wasn't an accident. It was intentional." Wette pressed her lips together, arching an eyebrow. She turned her head, a faint, cold smile tugging at the corners of her lips as her eyes locked onto Janice. She said nothing.

Andrew had already heard from Bonnie about her older sister and their close bond, how the two had grown up together. He stepped forward and said, "Janice, Sheldon is a person who deserved to die. Don't be afraid." Janice's heart skipped when Andrew spoke to her directly. She quickly tried to mask her joy, pretending to be modest and shy as she nodded toward him.

"Sir, thank you. You must be Andrew, the friend Bonnie talks about. Thank you for taking care of her. I'm sure Bonnie must have caused you quite a bit of trouble," Janice said.

Bonnie didn't think much of it. Janice still didn't know that Bonnie and Andrew were dating, so it made sense that she'd say this.

Andrew paused, feeling something off about her words. 'Why does this sound so strange?' he thought to himself. Out of politeness, he responded. "I'm happy to take care of Bonnie. We're actually in a relationship now." Janice's face instantly becgloomy. 'How could this be? Just a few days ago, Bonnie toldthey were just friends. She really did lie to me,' she wondered.

Trying to cover her unease, Janice forced a smile, her expression one of feigned contentment.

"Mr. Mitchell, Bonnie is lucky to have you as her boyfriend," she said, pausing before continuing, "But...

you! Bonnie, have you resolved things with Xavian yet could go and have that engagement annulled if you'd like." Janice acted as if she was entirely concerned for Bonnie Bonnie shook her head, touched. "No, Janice, that's not necessary." She then recounted what had just happened to Janice,

Janice tried to look genuinely shocked after hearing Bonnie's m words. She sighed. "Holden really did something so heinous..... It's truly awful. Bonnie, I had no idea." Bonnie, believing Janice wasn't involved in anything malicious, reassured her. "I believe you, Janice." 15:48 Sun, Dec 1 G.

Janice, glancing at Yvette near the door, feigned surprise, pointing at her in disbelief. "It's you." Bonnie asked, "Janice, do you know Yvette? Have you two met before?"

Samantha, Andrew, Charles, and Emmett all turned their gaze to m Yvette, exchanging confused looks. 'What's going on? Janice and Yvette have met?' they wondered. Read he latest chapter there! Read Next Story >
