Chapter 129
The manager had already planned everything with Sophia, otherwise, it wouldn’t have gone so monthly
Hearing Sophia’s eagerness, he was about to swipe t
the card and open the door
However, before the card touched the door, a low, angry voice came from the back of the crowel. “Everyone stop! Who gave you the nerve to open a guest’s room like that??”
1 turned around and saw it was none other than Nevin
I hadn’t seen him all evening and thought he didn’t show up, but it turns out he was just waiting to make a grand entrance at the end.
Seeing how worried he looked, Hayden must be inside the room.
Nevin glanced over at me.
Ha eyes widened, clearly surprised to see me here.
He was overreacting a bit to meeting an old friend.
After a brief star. Nevin moved to stand in front of the door, blocking it.
“Mr. Nevin Parker” The manager hesitated, too afraid to move, Who would’ve expected Nevin, the spot heir, to cause a scene here!
Sophia hadn’t foreseen this twist and was completely baffled.
“Wha.. what do you think you’re doing Sophia quickly gathered her wits, demanding an explanation.
“What kind of people barge into a private room like this? Flave you no sense of propriety?” Nevin snapped back, not yielding an inch.
Lucy sat next to me, her eyes gleaming with excitement as though she were watching a showdown on stage. She said, “This is going to be good. The anruly troublemaker versus the fierce tigress. Who do you think will wint”
I chuckled and replied, “Isn’t the answer obvious!
Sophia’s tough demeanor only worked in her own circle. When it came to the Parker family, she was as submissive
“But isn’t there a saying, ‘A mother’s love makes her strong? I’m being on the tigress Lucy argued, dearly on the other side of the fence,
We exchanged knowing smiles and turned back to enjoy the unfolding drama.
Vosef, who never dared cross the Parker family, quickly pulled sophis behind him and tried to smooth things wer
“Mr. Nevin Parker, don’t get angry,” he said nervously. “We didn’t come to cause trouble. Our daughter’s in that room, not answering her phone, We’re worried something’s happened. We need to check to make sure she’s okay, right?”
His words sounded reasonable, and the crowd of onlookers nodded in agreement. “Exactly! If their daughter’s missing, they have the right to check
Among the crowd were the Book
were the Parker family clients, prominent figures in Elysiumville. They weren’t afraid of Nevin and voiced their opinions freely. Someone said, “Privacy doesn’t matter in sinations like this. A life is more important“”
Another agreed, “Open the door and see w
what’s going on!
Sophia, ever the clever one, knew better than to confront the Parker family directly. She immediately switched tactics playing the victim and bursting into tears
She cried, “Oh, my poor daughter! What could have happened to you? Even your own mother can’t check on you. What kind of world is this?” Her loud crying cau a shadow over Nevin’s face, his expression darkening by the second
Even Nevin, who was used in being a jerk, began to faler under the mounting pressure.
Nevin’s usual gang of sycophants was nowhere to be found in moments like these. They always followed his lead, but when real trouble struck, he was completely clueless,
Sill, he tried to keep his composure. “What if she’s just busy with something important! If we barge in, wouldn’t we be disturbing her?”

He glanced nervously at the door, kanowing full well that Hayden was inside. Alone with a woman, behind a locked door, for such a long time- anyour could guess what was happening in there.
1 can’t let this crowd barge in he thought, panse spreading through him.
His older brother had always protected him since they wi
were kids, and now it was his turns to protect him!
“What could she possibly be doing in there! Just let us in to check someone in the crowd shouted,
Another asked. “Nevin, are you hilling something! Do you know what’s going on inside!
“Yeah, tell us then?” The voices grew louder and more accusing.
Nevin, beads of sweet no forming on his forehead, scanned the sea of faces. His gaze stopped on me
“Yvonne! Get over here!” he asked, his voice sharp and commanding
Everyone’s attention shifted to me, including Sophia and Yosef
(move, my eyebrows knitting together slowly in frustration
Larry, ever my defender, stepped in. “What’s with the shouting to your even know how to be polite?”
Nevin, caught off guard by her words and desperate for help, softened his tome, “Yonne, could you come over for a bat??
Compared to his earlier arrogance, he was definitely more polite.
Leaning against me,

1 lowered my voice and reassured her with a faint smile. It’s fine, to find Marion
* It wasn’t normal for Marlon to be absent at such a crucial monsent.
Her brows furrowed. “But you-
“Tl be fime,” I said, giving her a look that told her to trust me.
I thought, “Edhian should be nearby. Nevis would dare try anything
Reluctantly, she nodded and left
Only after she was gone did I walk up to Nevin “What do you need?
Over the years, he had never once treated me kindly, I saw no reason to extend him any courtesy now. “You come here,” he said, his feet planted firmly in front of the door, as though he were guarding it wi “Say it here,” I said, stopping in my tracks, my tone laced with impatience
it with his life.
Seeing that I wasn’t budging, he had no choice but to take a few hesitant steps toward me. Once he was close, he leaned in and whispered “Hayden in in there! You’ve got to figure out a way to get these people in leave!”
I frore, caught off guard by his
blunt confession. He actually told me outright”
But the surprise faded quickly, replaced by amusement. He must think I still love Hayden. That no matter what’s happening. I’d help him out of blind devotion
I looked at him, smirking. Unfortunately for him, he couldn’t be more wrong
Feigning innocence, 1 asked, “Did you just say Ms. Charlotte is in there! And… someone che?”
Nevin’s face turned palle as the crowd caught onto my words.
“There’s s

Man or a woman! someone asked, their curiosity piqued.
Someone replied, “If it’s just a woman, what’s the big deal? It’s definitely a man!”
Someone asked, “Could it be.”
The crowd latched on the implication like a pack of hungry wolves. Whispers turned into wild speculation, their expressions shitting from shock 2/3

to knowing grins.
Yosef’sface turned ghostly white. So that’s what’s going on in there?” he thought, his mind racing.
Though Joanna wasn’t his biological daughter, she was still his stepdaughter. If rumors spread, it would tarnish his reputation as well
He rugged on Sophia’s sleeve, urging her, “Let it go. It’s their business. Maybe she’s just chatting with a friend. Let’s not get involved.”
But Sophia refused to back down. “What friend? I know my daughter better than anyone. She would never ignore my calls for no reason! Honey, we have to check. What if something really happened?”
“No way!” Nevin blurted, his voice cracking under the pressure.
The crowd eyed him suspiciously, their imaginations running wild.
“Mr. Nevin Parker is always protecting his brother, And didn’t there!
Laughter rippled through the crowd.
