Secretary's Secret Lover
Chapter 396 I Know Your Secret!

Chapter 396: Chapter 396 I Know Your Secret!

The venue quieted down a lot.

Although this woman was making a fuss, what she said made some sense.

After all, Alena had already retired, and one could not just believe that Yvette was indeed her daughter just because she said so.

A few reporters agreed.

"That’s right. We can’t be biased."

"Then please show us the Thiel Stitches. It’s known to be mastered only by Alena’s daughter."

"Yes, right..."

Yvette could tell that this woman in sunglasses was here to cause trouble.

She lowered her head and whispered a few words to her assistant Oliver. Then, she smiled and spoke to everyone.

"Since you all want to see it, I will show you."

Soon, the staff brought up the rack and laid out a piece of silk. There was only a needle and some yarn next to it.

Immediately, everyone became excited.

This did look like the Thiel Stitches.

The essence of the technique was to not change the needle or to cut the thread.

When the thread at the bottom was chosen, and yarn of another color was needed, she would have to directly thread the needle and stitch using the hidden embroidery method.

In the past, there was a reporter who documented Alena’s embroidery process, but no matter how people observed, no one could learn it.

Yvette was sitting on the bench, calmly picking up the needle. Her slender fingers were flexible, and the sketch of a bird had already appeared on the silk.

Yvette’s exquisite skills, coupled with the extremely fast speed, dazzled everyone.

Everyone held their breath and stared at the silk, but they still could not understand how she did it.

In less than half an hour, a beautiful little bird vividly came out on the silk.

It was lifelike in terms of its appearance, posture, and manner.

​In particular, the pair of eyes were so spiritual whether being seen from the front or the back that it made people speechless.

For a moment, the venue fell into complete silence.

After twenty years, when people saw the stunning Thiel Stitches again, their minds were still blown!

They were dumbfounded.

Everyone stared at Yvette’s fair and delicate hands, and there was only one thought in their minds...

This pair of hands was priceless!

"Clap, clap!"

The sporadic applause broke the silence.

Stephen looked at Yvette with approval down the stage and clapped his hands hard.

He did not go up to stop the troublemaker because Yvette had told him in advance that he did not need to care about anything.

She had a plan.

A few seconds later, everyone seemed to have just come back to their senses.

"Clap, clap!"

Thunderous applause resounded throughout the venue!

No one would doubt Yvette now!

Alena had personally said that only her daughter knew the stitching method.

Alena accidentally discovered that her daughter, who was five years old, had a talent for embroidery, so she had her daughter work with her.

At that time, this five-year-old girl could already make a complete animal in less than half a month.

It really shocked Alena!

Her daughter was obviously more talented than her!

Yvette stood on the stage, her delicate face directly facing the cameras, and her whole person seemed to be glowing.

She looked at people excitedly taking pictures of the work, and her eyes were a little wet.

Yvette once thought that her mother had been forgotten by the public, but she did not expect so many people to remember her.

She had come prepared today.

She needed to take advantage of people’s attention to send a message to her mother, who had been missing for a long time.

Therefore, even if the woman did not say that Yvette plagiarized, she was ready to show the Thiel Stitches at the press conference.

She was using this way to tell her mother that her little girl, who Alena had lost years ago, had come back.

Although Alena had been missing for many years, Yvette still expected her mother to see...

The woman who was causing trouble next to her still wanted to speak but was stopped by the police who suddenly showed up.

The officer in the lead showed his badge and informed the woman.

"Miss, we received a report that you gave away corporate secrets and sold artists’ information. You need to come with us to the police station."

The woman panicked for a moment and ran without thinking.

In the end, she was caught by the officer before she even reached the door.

She shouted, "What are you doing? I didn’t do anything. I didn’t do anything!"

The woman’s mask and sunglasses fell off as she ran away.

When Oliver saw this, he was amazed.

This woman was actually the woman who spoke ill of Yvette in Palmet Entertainment that day and got fired.

He looked at Yvette and asked in surprise, "Yvette, how did you know that this woman was the woman who was fired?"

Yvette had just whispered to Oliver about calling the police before she put on the show.

The surveillance footage that Peyton had checked last time showed that this woman had sneaked into the locker room holding the dresses for the grand ceremony. She took photos and sold them to some small workshops to make a copy.

Coincidentally, it was seen by Dream Studio, thus the so-called plagiarism.

And this woman must have come to cause trouble because she was mad about being fired.

As for why she knew that they bought Alena’s work at a high price, there must be someone behind it.

However, these were all things that the police had to investigate.

Yvette told Oliver, "There is a small mole at the corner of her mouth."

When she was embroidering, Yvette needed to be fully concentrated, so normally, as long as she paid attention to something or a person, she would not forget about any of the details.

Oliver was amazed at how perfect Yvette was and looked at her with worship in his eyes.

He wondered what Yvette had that he still didn’t know about!

After Yvette was escorted off the stage by the security guards, she left with Stephen.

The cameras also caught Stephen’s face. To prevent Yvette from being pushed by the audience, Stephen was holding his hand behind Yvette. He was very gentlemanly.

Everyone wondered if this man was Yvette’s boyfriend.

Some reporters even got near to ask, but the elevator just happened to arrive.

Yvette was afraid that the elevator would be gone, so she walked in with a smile, without answering the question.

...

Outside the hotel...

A black van was parked by the side of the road.

In the car, the man had a handsome profile, making him look like a painting.

He looked down at the live broadcast on the tablet and did not miss this last scene.

There were a lot of words of blessing in the comment section.

"What a perfect match! Both of them are so brilliant!"

"What a gentleman. He looks at her with such loving eyes. Can someone please tell me they are a couple?"

"Ms. Thiel’s daughter is gorgeous, just like her mother back then! Genetics is amazing!"

Words like these were all over the place.

These words of blessing instantly made Lance sink into deep thoughts.

On the screen, Yvette was dazzling. Her confidence made her completely different from five years ago.

It turned out that Yvette’s mother was Alena...

Why didn’t Lance connect the dots?

After learning about Yvette’s other identity, Lance actually panicked a little.

Yvette was so remarkable, and there should be many men who liked her, perhaps including someone better than him...

Lance felt that his chance of being accepted by Yvette became slimmer again.

As if there was a knife stabbing into his heart, Lance felt pain.

Even someone as arrogant as him would be so unconfident sometimes.

Lance had once asked himself when he was discouraged and disappointed.

How would he take it if Yvette married another person and was away from his life?

But Lance couldn’t bear to think of an answer.

Because whenever he thought of this, he felt as if a hand had reached into his chest and grabbed his heart, wanting to yank it out. The pain was excruciating!

Could a person survive even if his heart was taken out?

The answer was no!

It was the same as Lance’s answer to whether he could accept any possibility other than Yvette staying by his side.

Therefore, no matter what, he would not let go.

...

Yvette and Stephen walked all the way to the parking lot.

Just as Stephen was about to get in the car, a man suddenly jumped out from the side and reached for Yvette.

Stephen pulled Yvette behind him, blocking the dirty hand.

"Damn, what the hell? I am her uncle!"

Yvette raised her eyes when she heard this.

When she saw that the person who came was really Hoffman, her eyes instantly turned cold.

Hoffman looked at Yvette and said with a grin, "Yvette, it’s been a long time!"

Yvette remembered that Hoffman didn’t even come back when her grandmother was on her deathbed. She said coldly, "So, you didn’t die."

Hoffman spat a few times.

He said unhappily, "Do you fucking wish I had died? I have a long life ahead of me."

Yvette saw that Hoffman was still the same as before. Even though he was in such dire straits, he was still remorseless.

Immediately, she frowned indifferently.

"Then I wish you a happy life. Let’s go."

As she spoke, Yvette turned around and wanted to get into the car.

When Hoffman saw that Yvette was about to leave, he became anxious and suddenly tried to grab her.

"Hey, little bitch, stand here for me..."

Hoffman habitually spoke without thinking, saying some insulting words.

Stephen’s eyes became cold, and just as he was about to make a move, he saw that Yvette had already kicked Hoffman’s knee.

In an instant, there was a scream!

"Ouch!"

Hoffman’s legs went soft, and he knelt on the ground, swearing.

"You bitch! How dare you kick me? I’m your fucking uncle, who is practically your father. You bastard, you don’t recognize me now that you have a new identity, do you?"

"What kind of uncle are you?" Yvette sneered coldly, "Where were you when Grandma passed away? Have you ever visited her grave?"

After Yvette remembered everything, she had taken Belle to Pittsburgh.

Although Phoebe was not her biological grandmother and had only coincidentally taken Yvette in when she lost her memory, she had raised her. For that, Yvette had always been grateful and thought about how good Phoebe was to her.

She asked the groundskeeper. Other than her, no one had come to visit Phoebe.

Later, Yvette left the groundskeeper her number and asked him to inform her once someone visited Phoebe.

But no one had ever been there.

When Hoffman saw that Yvette was still very gentle when she mentioned his mother, he immediately thought of the reason why he had come to her.

"Hey, I just forgot, okay? Yvette, our family eventually raised you. Can you just give your uncle some money to spend?"

"Did you spend the 500 thousand dollars?" Yvette sneered.

"When did that happen? Why are you still bringing it up..."

Hoffman wiped the corners of his eyes guiltily. "I got swindled too, okay?"

Yvette didn’t believe it at all. She immediately knew that Hoffman spent all the money for fun.

"Back then, I paid back 500 thousand dollars for you. I have done more than enough!"

Yvette said coldly, "Hurry up and leave. I won’t give you any money!"

When Hoffman saw that Yvette was about to leave, his expression changed and he scolded, "Damn it, wait for it. I will expose you to the media. You used to freeload at my house. And this is how you treat me in return!"

Yvette did not care at all. Her dark eyes were clear.

"It doesn’t matter. Just go ahead and do it."

How could Hoffman dare? If he showed himself, there would be a lot of people after him and settling scores with him.

Seeing that Yvette was about to get into the car, Hoffman anxiously shouted.

"Wait a minute. I know your secret!"
