Chapter 188 Get Revenge Sooner or Later
Of course, I understood the implication of his words, but I did not respond, just observing
Ensio
hurrying over. He seemed quite anxious. It seemed my intended mission had already been
achieved.
Idris, too, noticed Ensio’s arrival and furrowed his brows slightly, but he did not rush to ask
any questions.
Ensio, panting from the rush, stopped and took a moment to catch his breath. He glanced
at me, seemingly hesitant.
Noticing this, Idris prompted, “What’s the matter?”
Ensio steadied his breath and spoke in his usual manner. “The police took Ms. Scott away.
They said she’s involved in a criminal case and needed to take her in for questioning. They
showed an arrest warrant.”
Upon hearing this, Idris’s expression remained calm. He just glanced at me briefly, then
calmly said to Ensio, “Anything else?”
Ensio looked a bit confused, not understanding Idris’s current behavior.
After a few seconds of hesitation, he said, “Mr. Young, about Ms. Scott…”
“If she has caused trouble, it’s procedure for the police to take her,” Idris interjected, his
demeanor

unchanged.
Ensio seemed somewhat concerned and added, “But Ms. Scott attempted suicide
yesterday by taking a large amount of sleeping pills. She barely survived. If the police take
her away, could something happen?”
Idris turned to him, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. “Are you very concerned about her
wellbeing?”
This question seemed to stump Ensio, and even I was taken aback.
Muttering, Ensio finally said, “No.”
Perhaps sensing Idris’s indifference toward Moore from his tone, Ensio did not press
further and excused himself. “Then Mr. Young, I’ll head back to work.”
Idris nodded, and Ensio left.
Standing there, I began to feel increasingly uncertain about Idris‘ thoughts. I had assumed
that with
Moore’s suicide act, given his usual character, he would not just stand by. But his reaction
just now was unexpectedly indifferent.
“Did you call the police?” Idris‘ deep voice broke the silence.
I did not deny it and answered frankly, “Yes.”
Before he could question me further, I faintly heard his soft chuckle. “You came to see

early and went through all the trouble to have her call me here. Were you afraid I would
stop the police from taking her away?”
I glanced at him, noting that people who rarely smiled often looked especially good when
they did. Idris was one such person. Following his words, I simply nodded without saying
anything.
He suddenly let out a cold laugh, as if my nod was a confirmation, somewhat sarcastically
saying, ” So, you plan to settle both new and old scores with her?”
I did not avoid his question but responded directly. “Speaking of which, I should thank you
for going to the border to find the evidence of her framing me back then. Otherwise, I
couldn’t have done anything to her.” Looking at his calm face, I could not guess his
thoughts. I continued, “People always have to pay the price for their actions. What I’m
doing now is simply seeking justice for myself and those she has hurt. If you are reluctant
and want to protect her, then we might not even be able to be friends anymore.”
Idris’s face darkened. His eyes narrowed, and his voice was a bit heavy. “Yvette, have you
ever really listened to what I said? Or should I say, have you ever trusted me at all?”
I did not understand what he meant and calmly replied, “I’ve always listened to your
words, Mr. Young. I just don’t know which statement you are referring to now. As for trust,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwe aren’t even friends at this point, so trust is out of the question.”
Idris was right. My early arrival at the hospital was solely to send Moore where she
belonged. Making Madam Young call him over was indeed because I feared that the police
would not take her away if he was with Moore. Now that my purpose was achieved, there
was no need to stay and talk nonsense
with him.
As I was about to leave, he grabbed my wrist. I frowned, somewhat displeased, and looked
at him. “ Mr. Young, are you trying to vent your anger for your beloved?”
He looked at me, his eyes deep and cold. After a long while, he burst into laughter, his
eyes fixed on me as he said, “I don’t have a beloved, Yvette. If you care so much about
who is in my heart, why don’t you become that person?”
I frowned subconsciously, not understanding his meaning.
He continued, his handsome face showing a mix of helplessness and defeat, “Yvette, this
is the last time I’ll repeat this: I don’t love her. In the past, I protected her because I
foolishly mistook her for someone else. Now, I’m having Ensio arrange for her care
because I want to find out from her where Noah has gone. And last night, I wasn’t even at
the hospital. There’s a new project at Young Corporation, and I was there. I really don’t
care whether she lives or dies.”
