After recovering from the initial shock, Yuna became calm and rational. Seeing no reaction from her at all, Arthur added, "You probably don't know the reason why Yvan seems so devoted towards Daisy." "Grandpa Jenkins, I understand that you want to help me. But, Yvan and I, our fates are no longer intertwined since seven years ago. And I think you're misunderstanding something. I didn't come back to the country to remarry Yvan. I'm really here for work reasons and also to settle things with the Jenkins family. After settling all the matters, I'll leave the country again and continue with my life." She wouldn't reveal that she's been trying to investigate the car accident from years ago too. She still shared some personal connections with Yvan, but she wouldn't let it go on for long. This was just an unexpected event for her. Hearing that from Yuna, Arthur still felt sorry for the relationship. He even seemed hopeful. "Are you being honest?" "Yes." Arthur sighed after heari
Yuna was in shock, but her face remained calm and undisturbed. Daisy goaded her on. "Were you thinking that you might be able to remarry him when you were pregnant back then, Yuna? It's a shame that he didn't even want the child between the two of you to be born." She paused for a moment and asked suggestively, "Are you not curious about who was the one behind that car accident?" To release her frustration momentarily, Yuna dug her thumb deep into her index finger. She then stared back at Daisy calmly. "Seems like you really do love Yvan a lot. Aren't you scared that I would send Yvan to jail after telling me all of these?" "Will you have the heart to let that happen?" Yuna then added darkly, "Do you think I would have the heart to let that happen?" Her words made Daisy feel strangely uneasy. At the same time, Yuna started snickering in satisfaction. "Yvan must be so lucky to have such a girlfriend like you. Thank you for letting me in on these secrets." "Yuna, Yvan is th
Yvan was fast as he pulled Yuna up by her arms. Yuna, however, had used up all her might when holding onto the railing right then. So when she realized Yvan was grabbing her, her body instantly relaxed, and she passed out. Kiara was dashing over to the scene from behind. She broke out in a cold sweat when she saw Yvan pulling Yuna up from outside the balcony railing. When she noticed the dumbfounded Daisy, she immediately grabbed Daisy's wrist. "Were you the one who pushed Yuna down?" "No, I didn't. She fell off the balcony by accident. I wanted to save her." "Why are you and Yuna here then?" "I … " Daisy became hesitant. But she then saw Yvan heading back inside with Yuna in his arms. "Yvan, Yvan!" Kiara blocked her way. She added sinisterly, "We'll find out about the truth once Yuna wakes up." "I didn't push her! She was being careless!" Kiara didn't bother to hear Daisy out. She turned around and headed inside. At that moment, Daisy was both furious and anxious. Sh
Daisy felt her heart stop beating. She had never seen Yvan treating her this coldly before. But Yvan seemed to want to make things clear in one go. "You know very well why you are the only woman that can stay by my side. I even tolerated it in silence when you told everyone that I'm your boyfriend." Daisy bit her lip hard. She shook her head and said defiantly, "Yvan, I don't want to just be a life savior to you. I love you, and I want to marry you. I want to be together with you forever." Yvan scrunched up his brow. She sat beside Yvan; her pretty face was streaked with tears. "You got a divorce with Yuna right after I came back. Didn't you do that so that I won't overthink? Didn't you tell others that I'm yours when I was about to be bullied? Am I not the reason why there are no other women appearing in your life? I've been so willing to wait for you however long you need it, so can't you see my true feelings for you, Yvan?" "Do you need me to explain each of those matters
Throwing a glance at Yuna, Kiara said, "I'll bring you somewhere nice to eat." Not giving Yuna the chance to turn her down, Kiara hit the accelerator all the way down and sped away. …There were cuts all over Yuna's palms, which were wrapped up with bandages. It was difficult for her to use cutleries, so Kiara sat beside her to cut up food for her. "So, she was the one who wanted to fall from the railing and frame you for it, wasn't it?" "Do you believe my words, Kiara?" "Why not? If I don't believe you, I'll be on Daisy's side fighting you now." Kiara lifted her chin, then added with a serious tone, "I'm not the same as my mom. I just don't understand how Daisy managed to lure that brat Yvan and my mom to her, that they're treating her so well." Yuna didn't say anything. "Even if Daisy did save that brat's life, he'd have already repaid her well after all these years." Hearing that, Yuna raised her head in curiosity. Daisy was surprised to see the look on her face. "Don
Yuna scrunched up her eyebrows in pain. She forgot about her wounds and thought she should've slapped Yasmine with her other hand. "How dare you hit me, Yuna Feron?" Before she barely finished her sentence, Yuna was already in front of Yasmine with a dark look. She spoke coldly, "Don't you know how you should address me?" For a split second, Yasmine saw Yuna raising her hand. She shut her eyes tight instinctively, in fear of Yuna slapping her again. "Don't embarrass the Ferons out here." Yuna snickered. "If Dad knows how brazen you are outside of the house, maybe you'll be the one who sends him to the hospital out of anger instead." "That's absurd! When Dad finds out you've slapped me here, he won't let you off that easily, for sure!" "That slap was for disrespecting me as your older sibling. Now, do you know how you should address me?" "You …""Oh, I know. You never see me as your older sister, don't you? Is that what you think or what the Ferons think?" Yuna cut her of
When they noticed the wounds on Yuna upon her return, the two kids and Sherry were terrified. It was a good thing that she came up with a believable reason before she reached home. She explained the injuries to them and added, "It's just some small cuts. I can't get my wounds wet these few days." "I'll blow it for you." Natalie leaned on Yuna, and she started blowing at her hands. "Thank you, Nat. I don't feel pain anymore." Yuna planted a kiss on Natalie's tiny round face. Her daughter's care was the most effective medicine for her, after all. Nathaniel asked, "Mommy, if you're hurt because of work, why can't you take a leave?" Hearing that, Sherry agreed. "That's right. Are you not going to take a leave from work even when you're hurt?" Yuna shook her head. "I don't have to do any hands-on work. I'll just instruct others from the side. Plus, these are just light cuts. It won't be good to delay my work because of it." "Were they rushing you?" Nathaniel asked, raising an im
Upon hearing the mention of the Hans family, Yvan's brow furrowed. "A lot has been going on in the Hans family these days." Lucian, who was driving, sneaked a glance at the rearview mirror. "That's normal. In Jefton State, the Jenkins family, the Roosevelt family, my family, the Fisher family, and a few more dominate the market. The Hans family is in a position where they nearly make the list, so they'll come up with anything just to be a part of us." Gabriel titled his head. "To think of the reason why they can't make it up there yet. Always trying to find shortcuts. Tsk." Yvan's finger was pressed against his temple. "The Hans and the Reid families have been colluding to carry out several illegal transactions. We should just ignore them as long as they don't do anything that crosses the line." Head tilted, he raised his gaze to look at Gabriel. "What's with the restaurant at Westwood?" Lucian snickered. "Since the Hans and the Reids families are working together, he's just ho
At that moment, Natalie and Nathaniel were hiding in the bathroom. Natalie stared at Nathaniel, who was working on his laptop while sitting on the toilet bowl. "Nathaniel, is this alright?" "Why not? If he doesn't suffer from some trouble before he marries Mommy, he won't appreciate her in the future." "You're right. I suggest you make things harder for him then." "I think the same." And so, the kids set up something for them. After getting out of the car, Yvan and the others got into the elevator. Then, it suddenly stopped. Before they could react, a cartoon man appeared on the screen in the elevator. He then told them to solve some problems before the elevator could go up. Surprised, Gabriel said, "The bridesmaids are smart, aren't they? They've actually set up something like this for us." Lucian chuckled and said, "It's probably done by a computer genius." Yvan agreed to answer. Then, they started answering the questions. The bridesmaids were waiting for the groo
When Natalie and Nathaniel found out that Kiara was pregnant with Harry's child, they were overjoyed. That meant they were going to have a younger cousin. They also wanted to join in when they heard that their parents were going to have a wedding. They even wanted to get involved in the wedding decoration. Of course, Yvan let them do what they wanted. Considering the fact that Kiara got pregnant, she and Harry would be having their wedding first. Although they didn't have much time, the Jenkins family helped in setting the best wedding they could afford. It was rare for the Jenkins family to be so lively and busy. Since Harry was an orphan, Sherry and Yuna were his only family who would be attending the wedding. His ex-colleagues and workers in his club would be invited as well. At the wedding, Sherry and Yuna watched as they exchanged rings and vows. They were touched at the sight. They hugged each other with tears streaming down their faces. Sherry said, "I though
Because of Kiara's news, Yvan and Yuna didn't have the chance to enjoy a candlelight dinner. They headed over to see Kiara. They arrived at Harry's club. At that moment, Kiara and Harry were sitting in the office like kids who did something wrong. They waited for Yuna and Yvan to come. When Sherry heard the sound of the door opening, she told them, "Hoho, they're here. Better be careful." After that, Yuna and Yvan entered the room as expected. Without saying a word, Yvan grabbed Harry's collar. Kiara quickly protected him. "Yvan Jenkins, if you dare to land a finger on my man, I won't let you off!" "He's pushing you around!" "Bullshit!" Yvan and Kiara glared at each other hard. Stuck in the middle, Harry raised his hands high. "I will marry Kiara." Yuna quickly dragged Yvan to the side. "Are you going to beat Harry up?" she asked. "They're dating! Besides, they're adults. Since it has come to this, it's up to them to decide their future. I'm telling you, Kiara's b
Yuna pushed him away. "Alright, I'll tell him to come over and chat a bit longer then." Hearing that, Yvan became helpless. He pulled her into his arms. "I was just joking. I didn't want that to happen, either." Yuna smirked. Knowing that she only said that to upset him, Yvan said impatiently, "You really want to see me suffer, don't you?" "Is it too much for you then?" "Of course not. You can do anything you want to me," Yvan said lovingly. Right then, Yuna's phone rang. "It's Carl. Let me answer the call." Hearing that name, Yvan was once again frustrated. Compared to Ashton, Carl was an even bigger competition. Carl was the one who could threaten Yvan's place in Yuna's heart. "Carl." Hearing Yuna's tone when she spoke to Carl, Yvan wished he could end the call for her. After that, he'd find the nearest hotel and give this woman a good punishment. But he couldn't. He could only hold it in. "Are you doing well in Jefton State?" Carl asked. "Yes, I am." "I
Although Arthur explained everything to him, Jacob was still unwilling to accept the truth. He even denied it. Because of all the horrible things he did, Arthur eventually told Yvan to send Jacob to the cops. He'd be locked up in jail for his whole life. Arthur had no regrets. He could only blame himself for not teaching his child well. Yvan didn't ask Arthur too much about it. He followed Arthur's instructions and sent Jacob to jail. This matter was then settled. Yvan decided to hide Jacob's identity so that this incident wouldn't get out. It was also to prevent the Jenkins family from being the talk of town. Arthur allowed him to do so. …The fact that Yvan and Yuna had made up was sudden and surprising for everyone. They were curious about what happened between those two. Since Yuna was back in Jefton State, she decided to meet up with Ashton. "Do you really have to see him?" Yvan asked. "Don't forget about your promise," Yuna reminded. Yvan could only listen t
Seeing his reaction, Arthur was utterly disappointed. "That's what you want to believe." Arthur sighed and said, "Forget it. It was me who didn't take everything into consideration and caused you to misunderstand us. "You always thought that your mother and I side with Felix because he's weaker than you. But you're wrong. We raised both of you equally well. But you weren't willing to work hard. "Felix said he's physically weak, so he had to study harder than you. He wanted to support you and guide you while you inherit the family company." "No way!" Jacob's eyes were bloodshot. His mind went blank because of what his father said. But Arthur wasn't done talking. Standing in front of Jacob, he said, "You're the one who plotted the car accident against Felix and Yvan, weren't you?" "That's right." "You're so foolish. Felix has been weak since birth. They only managed to bring Yvan into this world through countless IVF rounds."His health has worsened since earlier on, but h
In the Jenkins Residence study, Jacob was tied onto a chair after being brought there from abroad. Facing Arthur, who was standing across from him, he had no trace of fear or guilt. Instead, there was only resentment. He looked as if he wished he could murder Arthur now. Sneering, he said, "Now that your children, grandchildren, and even great-grandchildren are here, you're probably over the moon, Father." Arthur had a serious look as he stared at Jacob. Walking toward him, Arthur sent a few slaps across his face. "You useless piece of trash. How dare you speak to me like that?" Bending his head, Jacob howled, "Why can't I say that? You're the one who abandoned me back then, weren't you?" Impatient, Arthur said, "Ask yourself if I was the one who abandoned you or if you chose to leave us!" Jacob continued to yell, "Wasn't it you who sided with Felix back then? If not, would I have wanted to leave?" Arthur was so mad that he clutched his chest and panted. Pointing at Jac
After half a month, they boarded the flight back to Jefton State. All this while, Yvan and the kids had been getting along. Their relationship seemed like one between normal families. The kids watched as their parents sat closely with each other. They then turned their heads away. Natalie asked with a soft voice, "Nathaniel, are you planning to let Daddy know about how you've taken so much of his money back then?" Crossing his arms, Nathaniel said, "He's rich anyway. He doesn't have to be bothered by the amount of money that I took him for." Giggling, Natalie said, "You don't dare to tell him, do you?" Nathaniel kept his chin up and said, "There's nothing I should be afraid of." "Don't worry. I'll side with you. If Daddy bullies Mommy again, you should steal tens of billions of money from him." "Smart girl." …Finally, they arrived at Jefton State. Harry and the others had been waiting for them at the airport. When they saw Yuna and the kids coming out, Sherry and
After that, Yuna and the kids had been accompanying Yvan in the hospital for rehab. At the same time, Master Eastin was discharged. "Are you planning to bring Natalie and Nathaniel to Jefton State after he recovers?" Master Eastin asked. "Yeah, I'll deal with the last bit of things here. I'll still head back to Phoenix City after that," Yuna explained. "I can't just leave my work at the research center behind." "Since you've made up with that brat, you should think about what's going to happen next. Don't rush things just so you can return to the research center and work," Master Eastin said with a smile. "Those are two different matters." With a determined look, she said, "It's impossible for me to give up on my career because of anyone." Satisfied, Master Eastin nodded. "That's what we're talking about." Yuna smiled a little and said, "Master Eastim, do you really have to go back to Phoenix City now?" "I left a bunch of problems behind when I was taken away. I have to
