Chapter 1834

“Her mother can’t actually force her to marry someone, right?”
Ewan was terrified that Tiffany’s twisted logic would push Yolande into a corner. Even if Yolande fought back, her reputation would take a hit. He knew she was a good person, but the rest of their social circle would talk.
“She can’t,” Claire said firmly. “But Tiffany is a master at stirring up trouble.”
It wasn’t proper for Claire to speak so bluntly about her elder, but she couldn’t help it. Her opinion of Tiffany had hit rock bottom.
“Do you think… if I became Yolande’s boyfriend, her mom would stop forcing her to meet that divorced guy?”
Ewan’s lack of confidence stemmed entirely from his injury. But if Claire could get him walking again, he would be more confident than anyone. Who else could give Yolande the happiness she deserved? He had been dreaming about their future since high school.
Claire raised an eyebrow. “So you do have an ulterior motive!”
She had sensed his interest, but she assumed he was too shy to confess. Who knew tonight’s drama would make him so bold?
Looking at his determined expression, Claire felt a pang of sympathy for Quentin Young. They had both injured their legs, but Quentin didn’t stand a chance. Compared to Ewan, who was raised navigating high society, Quentin simply couldn’t compete.
They were both Yolande’s classmates, but Ewan was from her world. If he actually pursued her, Yolande wouldn’t be able to resist.
Claire suspected Yolande had harbored a crush on the handsome, athletic Ewan back in high school. Teenage feelings were fleeting, but now that they were adults, a serious relationship was a real possibility.
Seeing Ewan fiercely protective and devoted even after witnessing her mother’s toxicity… how could Yolande not be moved?
“I wouldn’t call it an ulterior motive,” Ewan defended himself awkwardly.
“Oh please. You’ve had your eye on her for a long time,” Claire teased.

Yolande was waiting for them outside. When they emerged, she prepared to leave with Claire.
But Ewan stopped her. “Yolande, let me take you home.”
He couldn’t bear the thought of sending her back to Tiffany alone.
“No, it’s fine. My mom already thinks we’re involved, and she said some horrible things. If you come with me it i just make it worse,” Yolande said softly.

Ewan shook his head. “She’s relentless. Even if you tell her we’re not together, she
“won’t let it go.”
“Just tell her I’m your boyfriend.”
“If she keeps pushing, tell her my grandfather is Senior Harding.”
The Harding name wasn’t something people took lightly.
Yolande paled. “No, if she finds out who you are, she’ll never leave you alone.”
“Ewan, please don’t worry about this. I’ll handle it.”
Seeing her stubborn independence Ewan fell silent for a moment
