Chapter 513 Sienna thought of slipping away while Bruce wasn't looking. She barely moved when Bruce, still holding onto Frankie, shot her a look. Sienna quickly gave an innocent grin, pretending to brush dust off the sofa She murmured, "Well, there's dust. It's not clean. I wasn't trying to escape, just wiping it off. You know I have this thing about cleanliness.
Bruce's eyes flashed with a quick hint of amusement that was almost imperceptible.
Frankie, being dragged by Bruce, shouted loudly, "Sienna, save me! I'm about to be strangled. You can't just run off like that, Sienna. You need to do something, help!" Sienna could only nod reluctantly, twirling her fingers. She cautiously spoke sweetly to Bruce, "How abo first, and we go upstairs for a chat?" you let him go Bruce's gaze fixed on Sienna's delicate face. Though his expression remained a bit cold, he replied, "Okay, let's go upstairs." Sienna felt a shiver when she saw Bruce's threatening eyes. The last the gave her that look, she felt sore all over for two days. This time, she hoped he would be gentler to her. Bruce let go of Frankie and waved for Sienna to cover. Sienna reluctantly dragged her feet to him.
Then Bruce took her hand and went upstairs without looking back. Frankie, who had just caught his breath, was left there with Chris, who remained calm..
Frankie rubbed his neck, thinking. Bruce's really violent. But why don't they just chat here? What's the point of going upstairs That's weird.

Damn, is Bruce really going to hurt Sienna?" Chris looked away from the analysis on the computer to glance at the not-so-bright Frankie. For the first time, Chris wondered why Jeremiah chose this guy as his follower.
Chris pinched the bridge of his nose and muttered, "Frankie, you are such a fool." Hearing this, Frankie immediately jumped up from the floor, bursting with indignation.
He asked, "Chris, that's unfair! Why did you insult me? I was just worried that Sienna might get beaten..." At this point, Frankie suddenly stopped talking when he saw Chris helpless look and realized what was going on. "No way! Are they really going to do that? That's intense!" exclaimed Frankie. Then he looked upstairs and clicked his tongue twice with a cheeky grin, thinking, 'Poor Sienna. It was clear that Bruce was just usingas bait. Men are really conniving" At that moment, Yvette rode her hefty motorcycle to a shop in the downtown area. The establishment was owned by a local couple hailing from Mysonna and was renowned for its delicious burgers.
In the past, when Yvette grew tired from her lab work, she would treat herself to two or three cheeseburgers from this shop. However, it had been three years since her last visit for a burger there.
At the burger shop's entrance, Yvette pushed the door open. There wasn't a single customer inside, just a plump lady behind the counter, sleeping on it.
As Yvette entered, the bell above the door rang. The plump lady woke up rubbing her eyes, looked at Yvette in disbelief, and rubbed her eyes again. Once she was certain it was really Yvene, she stood up excitedly. 09:09 Mon, Dec 23 Chapter 513 The woman exclaimed, "Oh dear Yvette, is that you? Oh my gos It's been three years since you last visited K 84% The lady's excitement was obvious. Yvette looked at her, raised her eyebrow, and softly said, 'Susan, it's been a long time" Susan Jensen quickly approached Yvette but held back from hugging her, knowing she wasn't fond of close contact Susan asked, "Dear Yvette, are you here for a burger today? Oh, hat bad luck, Mike's gone to the Best Chef Competition He's not in today. What a pity! Susan looked apologetic. Yvette casually bent her long, slender legs and told Susan, "It's alright. I'll cback tomorrow. Ill be around for a while." Susan nodded and said, "Oh, dear Yvette, that's great, looking forward to seeing you tomorrow." Just as Susan finished her words, the door opened again. The shop owner, Mike Jensen, returned looking downcast. Seeing Yvette, he was as excited as Susan. Mike exclaimed. "Dear Yvette, it's really you! I can't believe it's been three years. You've beceven more beautiful" Mike was an elderly man nearing seventy, with grey hair. His body was slightly hunched from years of working in the kitchen, but his eyes were still bright Yvette nodded and said, "Hello, Mike" Mike's compliment was sincere. Even though he tried to hide his disappointment, Susan and Yvette could easily see it.
Susan gently patted Mike's back and asked, "What happened, dear? Weren't you supposed to be at the contest? Why are you back so early?" Mike looked at Susan and sighed.
He said, "I won't be joining the competition. Logan Brown, the chairman, has introduced a new rule: participants must be Certified Culinarians. I've been in kitchens all my life but never took those exams. They informedI'm ineligible because I don't fulfill the criteria" Hearing Logan's name, Yvette smirked. She thought, "That old guy really makes a fuss over nothing for a competition.
Mike didn't participate in the competition to win prizes but to showcase his craftsmanship to a broader audience. However, he didn't meet the requirements of the competition, Susan gently comforted Mike, her weathered face radiating kindness.
She said, "Mike, the competition rules must have been established for good reasons. Let's give it another try next time. But hey, Yvette's here, and it's been three years since she last enjoyed your burgers" Although Mike felt sregret, he wasn't one to complain. As soon as he heard Yvette wanted his burgers, he went straight to the kitchen to cook.
Half an hour later, there were three burgers in front of Yvette. They were made with Mike's special sauce and his freshly baked bread, a taste she wouldn't find anywhere else.

This was the only place across Mysonna where one could om experience this taste. Wette just couldn't get enough of it. Mike. and Susan watched as Yvette leisurely finished all three burgers After that, Yvette wiped her hands and looked up at the two loving faces. She asked, "Do you have spaper and a pen?"
Susan nodded immediately and went to the counter, pulling out a sheet of paper and a pen and placed them on the table. Mike asked, "Dear Yvette, what are you doing?" 09:05 Mon, Dec 23 Chapter 313 884% Yvette nodded slightly, her gaze cool and composed. She wrote two lines on the paper and then folded it up to hand to Mike.
She said gently. "Mike, at the competition tomorrow, give this mote to Logan After he reads it, he'll let E you participate." Mike took the note from Yvette, his hands trembling with excitement.
He said, "Dear Yvette, maybe we should let it go. I think I shouldn't participate." Mike didn't know what the relationship between Yvette and Logan was.
He was worried that Yvette might have traded something for the chance, which he wouldn't accept..
