My Possessive CEO: Trembling in His Arms-Chapter 75: So She Was Just a Stand-In?

Mrs. Bell wants to catch up with her?

Renee Winslow frowned, which Mrs., could it be Jack Yates’s mom?

Aside from Jack Yates’s mom, she couldn’t think of anyone else who would be called "Madam" and want to catch up with her.

While she was speculating, the middle-aged woman said again, "Madam is Mr. Yates’s mother, Miss Winslow doesn’t need to worry."

Renee Winslow thought, it indeed is Jack Yates’s mom.

She had met Jack Yates’s mom before and had a pretty good impression of her. She was gentle and didn’t act like an arrogant and indifferent noblewoman who looked down on others.

But she still didn’t dare to fully trust, so she said, "Please wait, I’ll call Jack Yates."

She immediately called Jack Yates, but couldn’t get through.

At that moment, her phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number from Northcity.

She answered, and Chloe Bell’s gentle voice came through: "Good child, don’t be afraid."

Renee Winslow stiffened and called, "Aunt."

Chloe Bell smiled warmly, "Old Third went to Maridia today to sweep his grandfather’s tomb, he will return tomorrow. Aunt was worried you’d be scared alone, so I asked Langdon to pick you up."

"Langdon" was the live-in housekeeper for The Yates Family, having worked there for over ten years.

Renee Winslow no longer suspected, but she didn’t want to meet Chloe Bell.

"Aunt, I..." She was about to refuse.

Chloe Bell directly interrupted her, "Good child, Aunt is not at ease with you being alone at the apartment."

Renee Winslow couldn’t refuse anymore, so she went to The Yates Family with Aunty Langdon. This was her second time at the old Yates family residence.

The car drove into the courtyard, along a winding road leading to another building’s entrance, which is the East Wing where Caleb Yates said the juniors live when they return.

The West Wing is Jack Yates’s residence, the main building is where Jack Yates’s parents and his grandfather live.

Last summer break, she came to The Yates Family and didn’t meet Jack Yates’s grandfather because Old Mr. Yates went south to escape the heat.

As for whether he is back now, she didn’t know and wasn’t about to inquire about these things.

After getting out of the car, Aunty Langdon led her into a spacious and luxurious living room on the first floor.

After entering, Renee Winslow had only one feeling: intoxicated by the extravagant lifestyle.

There were many people in the living room, both men and women, all young people.

Everyone glanced at her, then turned away as if not seeing her.

Aunty Langdon smiled, "Miss Winslow, please enjoy yourself here."

Renee Winslow asked, "I don’t need to see Mrs. Bell?"

Aunty Langdon smiled, "It’s too late today, Madam has already retired. Miss Winslow will see her tomorrow."

After speaking, Aunty Langdon was about to leave.

Renee Winslow quickly grabbed her arm, "Aunty Langdon, I don’t know them, it’s not good to stay here."

Aunty Langdon laughed, "There’s nothing wrong, they are all the young masters and misses of the family, Miss Winslow, do not be reserved, treat it as your own home."

Renee Winslow was forced to stay in the glittering room and found a corner of the sofa to sit.

A group of young men and women were playing cards, smoking, and a few girls sat chatting and eating pastries on one side.

They were talking about designer bags, and one girl in a black deep V dress said, "Third Brother spoils you the most, ask Third Brother to buy it for you."

The girl being teased was wearing a pink custom-made dress from a C brand, cute and bright, exactly Jack Yates’s cousin, Rina Bell.

Rina Bell pouted and said playfully, "Third Brother is about to get engaged to Miss Hawthorne, once a man has a wife, he won’t spoil his sister."

Another girl in a red dress with wavy hair said, "Everyone knows that The Second Miss Bell is Third Master Yates’s favorite, if it weren’t for the apparent familial relationship, I’m afraid The Third Master would already..."

"Oh dear." Rina Bell threw a pillow at the girl in the red dress, "Simone, stop spouting nonsense, don’t let outsiders hear."

Among all the people in the room, only Renee Winslow was considered an outsider.

Renee Winslow recognized that the girl in the pink dress leaning against Jack Yates in the photo was actually his cousin. However, listening to the girl in the red dress, their relationship seemed more than just cousins.

Immediately following, the girl in the black deep V dress cupped her hand over her lips, leaned toward the girl in the red dress, pretending to whisper but actually speaking loudly, "Simone, look, doesn’t that girl look a bit like Rina?"

The girl in the red dress glanced at Renee Winslow, her eyes full of disdain, and sneered, "She really does, she looks somewhat like Rina."

The girl in the black deep V dress put on a ’sudden realization’ expression: "No wonder, what a perfect stand-in. Third Brother’s love is truly deep and patient."

Originally, Renee Winslow didn’t think the girl in the pink dress looked like her. But after hearing them say that, she looked up at the girl in the pink dress.

Coincidentally, Rina Bell turned to look at her.

Their eyes met, and Renee Winslow’s heart skipped a beat, realizing the girl in the pink dress really looked quite like herself.

Rina Bell raised her chin with pride, smiling smugly at Renee Winslow.

Renee Winslow appeared calm, yet her heart was in turmoil.

No wonder Jack Yates crazily and obsessively kept her by his side, he treated her like a stand-in.

Because the person he loves can’t be loved, he can’t be openly with the woman he likes, so he seeks solace in her.

Thinking about it, Renee Winslow felt a chilling sensation all over, like she had fallen into an ice cellar.

Renee Winslow sat through the loud yet lonely living room all night, until she felt stiff in her limbs, as if a century had passed, daybreak finally came.

The crowd went upstairs to sleep, none acknowledged her.

Second floor dressing room.

Rina Bell was sitting in front of the vanity mirror removing her makeup.

The girl in the black deep V dress smiled and said, "Simone’s makeup skill is truly amazing, never met that woman, but only by looking at photos, she managed to make Rina look somewhat like her." 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Rina Bell took the chance while Jack Yates was out of Northcity, begged her aunt Chloe Bell to call Renee Winslow over, and specifically had Simone do matching makeup for her, to make herself somewhat resemble Renee Winslow.

The three girls laughed upstairs and disdainfully discussed Renee Winslow’s humbling situation.

Renee Winslow was oblivious to this, she stood up and walked out of the living room, in a daze, as if emerging from an enchanting and surreal dream, momentarily unable to tell if it was reality or still a dream.

She had stayed up all night, not had a drink of water, and her lips were dry and peeling.

She didn’t dare to proactively seek Chloe Bell, she could only wait passively.

Only when the sun came out, heating up, did the missing Aunty Warren smile and arrive.

Aunty Langdon apologized with a warm smile, "Miss Winslow, sorry, Madam feels unwell this morning, so cannot see you, she instructed me to take you back."

Renee Winslow coldly sneered internally, at this point, what could she not understand?

Clearly, Chloe Bell was deliberately giving her a lesson, making her retreat.

But is it she who does not want to retreat? It is Jack Yates who refuses to let her go!

However, she never had the chance to say these things to Chloe Bell.

Renee Winslow regained her composure, smiled at Aunty Langdon, "That’s alright, Madam’s health is a priority." She added, "I’ll go back by myself, no need to trouble you."

Aunty Langdon said, "I can’t allow that, Madam instructed me to take you."

Renee Winslow no longer wanted to fence with her, she spoke coldly, "I said there’s no need. I’ll pretend today never happened, won’t tell Jack Yates. You don’t need to call me here to watch a show again. Also, I don’t like Jack Yates, never thought of clinging to him. It’s Jack Yates who won’t let me go, and I suppose you’re clear about the reason yourselves."

Exiting The Yates Family’s old residence’s gate, Renee Winslow felt dizzy, her stomach churning.

She hastily leaned against the blue-gray courtyard wall, covering her mouth as she retched, tears streaming down her face.

She remembered the night Jack Yates lost his temper and didn’t wear protection, leaving everything inside.

Renee Winslow was unnerved, suppressing her nausea as she hailed a car on her phone.

After getting out of the car, Renee Winslow hurried to the pharmacy to buy pregnancy test strips.

After buying the test, she returned home, opened the door, and saw Jack Yates sitting with a cold expression on the sofa.

"Where did you go?" Jack Yates asked her, his deep, sharp eyes carrying a scrutinizing look.
