    Chapter 417


    “Anna, don’t tell anyone that I like Captain Chavez, Elena said. “It’s so embarrassing. Elena reminded


    her, just like how two sisters would have a heart–to–heart conversation when they were young.


    Anna nodded. A sincere smile appeared on her face. She nodded vigorously. saying. “Don’t worry. I


    understand. Girls have to be prim and proper. Before I’m sure of Lil‘ Chavez’s feelings, I won’t divulge


    anything.”


    Looking at Anna like this, Elena’s gaze suddenly became a little hazy, as if she saw the young Anna


    from her childhood.


    Actually, the two of them had a good rtionship when they were young.


    Anna was two years older than Elena. Both of their parents were teachers. Although their families were


    not particrly wealthy, they had no worries about their basic needs, and their parents held high social


    status.


    Back then, Anna would wear beautiful dresses and had her hair pulled up into a high ponytail at the


    back of her head. She was spirited and beautiful. She had a way of talking that was organized and


    persuasive. Furthermore, she was particrly good at offering guidance and teaching others. She


    looked a lot like a caring older sister.


    Elena thought, ‘When did our rtionship start to change? I think it started to change when Anna’s


    mom got sick, and when her parents divorced.


    Anna went from being a confident young girl with two parents to a pitiable girl who had a single–parent


    family and whose mother was seriously ill and bedridden.


    All of Anna’s family expenses had to be supported by Joanne.


    It was as if Anna became sensible all of a sudden. She became gentle, caring, and particrly


    understanding.


    Anna had clearly be gentler and easier to talk to. However, Elena keenly sensed the


    estrangement in their rtionship.


    Prior to this incident, while the two families were not in the same social ss, Anna was born prettier


    and had better academic performance. Hence, she never felt that she was inferior to Elena. In fact,


    Anna even felt a sense of superiority in front of her mischievous cousin.


    However, with the upheaval in Anna’s family situation, she had to depend on Elena’s mother for all


    matters in her family. Anna then unconsciously felt inferior to Elena.


    Anna had no choice but to humble herself and please her cousin, whose academic performance was


    not as good as herself. Anna had to, as her mother had said, be grateful to her aunt and cousin. They


    had helped her family.


    Shifting her thoughts away from the memories, Elena gazed at Anna with a serious expression and


    said. “Anna, be sure to keep this a secret for me. I still have to assess Captain Chavez for a period of


    time to see if he’s dependable.” “Alrighty” Aana said as she nodded. She happily hugged Elena and


    advised, saying. “When evaluating a man, the most important thing is his character. Everything else,


    like his family background and education, is not important. Whether or not one’s family is well–off is


    due to the parents, and it has nothing to do with the child. As for education, it doesn’t mean anything.”


    She even gave an example. “Look at Wesley, she continued. “He only has a bachelor’s degree, but


    those master’s graduates from Ivy League schools abroad in hispany still have to work for him.


    “That’s why academic qualifications are the least important. You mustn’t judge Lil‘ Chavez unfavorably


    in this regard.”


    Elena did not know much about Captain Chavez’s academic qualifications, but since he was personally


    arranged by Ryan, his overall qualities should be impressive.


    Elena said, “Anna, Captain Chavez seems to be older than us. Don’t keep calling him “Lil‘ Chavez. It’s


    not appropriate. Even Miss Taylor addresses him as ‘Captain Chavez.


    Among so many people, Anna was the only one who had no sense of propriety. She kept calling him Lil


    Chavez.


    Previously, Elena and Anna had a strained rtionship, so there were some things. that were hard to


    say. Now that their rtionship had improved. Elena mentioned


    BIL.


    “Got it,” Anna teased. “You guys haven’t even entered into a rtionship, yet you’re already being


    protective.”


    “Anna!” Elena said.


    “Alright,” Anna said as she nodded. ‘I’ll call him Captain Chavez as well, not Lil‘ Chavez.


    Anna was in high spirits. After chatting outside for a while, she felt that it was not enough. She then


    dragged Elena back to her room and talked for a long while. “Elena, let me tell you, true love is hard to


    come by, Anna said. “Since you like Captain Chavez, you have to take the initiative. You mustn’t


    hesitate.” Anna then urged, “It’s almost time for dinner. Hurry up and go eat with Captain Chavez.”


    Elena was in a dilemma. That isn’t proper, right?” she said. “I’ll observe him for a while longer.”


    “No,” Anna said. “Opportunity waits for no one. She pushed Elena, saying, “Hurry up. Go now.”


    Helpless, Elena had no choice but to go out to look for Captain Chavez.


    Captain Chavez was currently checking the surroundings of the vige. He walked

    a few rounds to ensure that the surroundings were safe before returning to his


    room to rest.


    Just as he reached the entrance, he bumped into Tyson, who was winking at him. “What are you


    doing?” Captain Chavez said as he frowned. “Did a bee sting your eye?”

    “It’s your eyes that were stung by a bee,” Tyson said. He walked over and said in a low voice, “Quick.


    Come in. Ms. Wayne is inside. She even brought you some apples. I took a bite of one apple. It’s big


    and sweet. It’s yummy.”


    ‘Elena?‘ Captain Chavez thought.


    Captain Chavez was stunned for a moment. Then, he suddenly recalled something that he had


    unintentionally heard when he was checking the surroundings of the vige.


    ‘Ms. Wayne seems to like me a lot, right?‘ he thought.


    Captain Chavez’s ears flushed instantly.


    His face was dark with a healthy tan. However, behind his cars and deep in his neck, where the


    sunlight could not reach, his skin was wless.


    As a result, his cars appeared particrly red, just as conspicuous as red roses on snowy ground.


    Tyson instantly noticed. He eximed, “Captain Chavez, your ears are red!”


    “No!” Captain Chavez said as he instinctively covered his ears and raised his leg to hit Tyson. “Hurry up


    and patrol.”


    With that, he dashed indoors, as if fleeing for his life.


    In the room, Elena was sitting on a chair. When she saw Captain Chavez enter, she hurriedly stood up


    and said, “Captain Chavez.”


    “Ms. Wayne,” Captain Chavez said. There seemed to be fireworks in Captain Chavez’s eyes as he


    looked at Elena’s clear eyes.


    His heart was pounding inside his chest, beating very quickly like the rhythm of a drum.


    He thought, ‘Is Ms. Wayne here to confess her feelings? What should I do? Should I agree? Nope. I


    have a mission right now, and Miss Taylor’s safety is the top priority. I can’t be distracted by other


    things. But once this mission is over, I can get to know Ms. Wayne better.


    Captain Chavez had already thought of how to deal with Elena. He had even prepared a rough draft.


    In the end, Elena did not pay any attention to Captain Chavez at all. She immediately handed over the


    apples she had brought and said, “Captain Chavez, take these apples and eat slowly. I’m here to


    apologize on behalf of my cousin, Anna. She doesn’t know your true identity, so she keeps calling you


    Lil‘ Chavez. I’m really sorry.”

    “Is it just about this matter? Captain Chavez said. He was surprised, and he could not help but take a


    step forward. “Nothing else, huh?”


    Elena was stunned by the question. “What else is there?” she said.


    Captain Chavez thought, ‘Is there really nothing else?‘


    Captain Chavez suddenly felt an indescribable sense of difort in his heart. He was like a small


    and withered de of grass that had been struck, looking dejected and dispirited.


    He took the apples and nodded at Elena. He said in a muffled voice, “Nothing,” he said. “This is a trivial


    matter. You don’t have to go out of your way to apologize.” After exchanging some pleasantries with


    Captain Chavez, Elena left. Before she left, she did not hint at anything.


    Captain Chavez sat in a chair, picked up a red apple, and put it to his mouth. With a crisp sound, he


    took a bite.


    He thought, ‘Yuck! It’s so bitter. This apple isn’t sweet at all. Tyson lied to me!’
