Yvette nodded and commented, "You definitely don't look like you're from around here. The locals here aren't as fair-skinned. Gurenchti has constant sunshine, so we all have this healthy tan, like mine."
After speaking, she realized her comment might be misinterpreted and quickly stuck out her tongue, adding, "Mavis, I didn't mean you look unhealthy…"
To Mavis, Yvette was childlike, and she did not take offense.
"I love your cheerful personality, Yve. You must be popular with the boys at school."
Yvette sighed and shrugged.
"I don't like those boys. They're all too immature, not my type. I prefer someone manly who can protect me."
As she said this, Yvette shyly glanced at Raymond.
Noticing this, Mavis found an excuse to leave.
"Yve, I actually have some errands to do, and I can't join you for drinks. Mr. Eipstein still has some concerns about our partnership. I hope you can act as a mediator and communicate our sincerity. Here, this is what we can offer you."
She handed Yvette a file and added, "This folder contains my contact information. If you need anything, feel free to reach out."
For the sake of her friend's happiness, Mavis decided to step back!
Yvette took the file and made an okay gesture.
"Alright, Mavis. I'll think about it. Let's have that drink together another time. Bye!"
Raymond dropped Mavis off at the hotel before driving away with Yvette.
Watching their car leave, Mavis felt hopeful, believing Yvette would not refuse the offer.
If Yvette could persuade Omari, it would be a significant advantage for Sheena.
As she was lost in thought, Sheena hurried over, grabbing her hand.
"Where have you been? I tried calling you so many times but couldn't reach you. I was so worried!"

The readers' comments on the novel: Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson)
The novel is too abusive it spoils the joy of reading it. I hate the punishment part between sheena and Eliot....
