Yvette realized what she meant and immediately recalled her last conversation with Claude. "Viola, Claude treatslike a friend. Please don't make things difficult for him." A friend? Despite her age, Viola could see clearly that Claude had feelings for Yvette. Could it be that Claude had given up on pursuing Yvette because Xavier was living with her now? Worried for Yvette, Viola added, "I understand, but Yvvy, you need to think about yourself too. You're pregnant now, and it's tough to take care of so many kids on your own."

Soon, he drove off.
The four bodyguards followed closely behind them in another car. Noticing this, Yvette called Xavier. "Tell your bodyguards to leave." "From now on, they're your bodyguards. You can give them orders yourself," Xavier replied.
Yvette was taken aback. What did he mean by "your bodyguards"? She had Ray pull over, then walked over to the car behind hers and instructed the bodyguards, "Go back." "Yes, ma'am," the lead bodyguard immediately replied.
