"Yes!" Spencer punched the air in excitement. Nathaniel raised his head to look at Spencer and pushed his sunglasses further up his face. "Uncle Spencer, I hope you can also continue doing a good job keeping the secret."Spencer quirked his eyebrows. "Don’t worry about it; let’s go! We can get off the plane now. Hold my hand, children, and don’t run off."The children exchanged a look once Spencer wasn’t looking, as if they were conspiring.That night, Yuna received a call from Yvan, asking to meet up.Yuna was aware of how efficient Yvan could be when he was working. Besides, that situation seven years ago happened in his house, and she knew how important this project was to him.She was deliberately utilizing his interest in the project to indirectly make him investigate matters for her.Even if decades had passed, she would not give up until she proved that she was innocent if she was wrongly blamed for something she didn’t do.Once she arrived at Twilight, she was personal
Yvan stared at Yuna silently, but Yuna was unphased by his piercing gaze. "Wasn’t it you who suspected me of tampering with the wine back then?" she asked him instead."Can you swear that you had no ulterior motives that day?" he asked coldly.His words felt like a knife in her chest.Of course she had ulterior motives. She had thought that if they consummated their marriage, then maybe he would change his mind about her.But things didn't work out like that. Once he had set his mind to something, he wouldn’t change.She arched an eyebrow and repressed those thoughts. "Mr. Jenkins, Even if you wanted to use emotions to convince me to work with you, you still shouldn’t use things that have never happened as leverage. It’s very insincere," she said, smiling.Yvan's expression darkened at her reaction. "You should make good on your promise now.""Are you apologizing to me?""Take what you can get, Yuna."Yuna didn't back down. "But sincerity is the core of doing business."Yvan
Yuna was shocked when she heard his name, but she couldn't help but raise her guard when she heard him address her using her fake name.Ashton smiled slightly. "Ms. Surra, you don’t have to worry. I didn't mean to investigate you, but I coincidentally saw you and workers from the West Drew Institute meet up with Yvan, so I connected the dots myself."She thought of the events from her day.He reached out a hand. "I know that you haven’t officially partnered with TN Group yet. So, I’m guessing I still have a fair chance of working with you."Ashton had just saved her from a potentially dangerous situation, so she reached out her hand to shake his and said, "Mr. Yale, thank you for your help just now.""You’re welcome. I would’ve done the same for any person in that situation." Ashton retracted his hand. "The patrons of this establishment are a mixed bag, so it isn’t safe here. Let me escort you out.""Thank you."The duo had just stepped into an elevator when another person, who
Yvan furrowed his eyebrows and loosened his grip disdainfully."Did you think you could get my attention by acting out like this?" he asked coldly."Mr. Jenkins, you’re hilarious. Aren’t you the one trespassing into my house in the middle of the night? Did I ask you to come?"Yvan’s expression darkened."Mr. Jenkins, you should leave now while I am still in a forgiving mood. If not, you can forget about working with me."Yvan’s veins pulsed on his forehead as he closed their distance with two long strides. He tilted his head down to look at her and said lowly, "I will gladly play along with your charade for now. Besides, I also want to see what you will do next."He huffed and left angrily, and Yuna calmly continued with her night.Though Yvan had stormed out of Yuna’s apartment, he was seated in his car outside of her apartment with Michael. He lit up a cigarette and glared at the tall apartment complex. "Have there been any updates on the investigation of the incident from sev
Yuna exited West Drew Institute and was about to get into her car. Suddenly, the car door was slammed shut by Yvan, who had followed after her. Then he grabbed her wrist."Mr. Jenkins, I don't think it's appropriate to grab someone like this in public," Yuna said, trying to pull away."I don't want to waste your time, so I'll drive you to wherever you're going. In the meantime, we can continue our conversation in the car." Yvan left no room for discussions and didn't allow Yuna to ask him any questions. When she tried to break free, he leaned in and whispered in her ear, "If you want everyone at the institute to know about our relationship, go ahead and make a scene."Gritting her teeth, Yuna glared at him and was forcefully taken away by Yvan.Sitting in the driver's seat, Rose was stunned. Were Yuna and Yvan really that close with each other?Yvan's car drove away. The partition was lowered, and only the two were in the back seat."What do you want to talk to me about?" Yun
Master Eastin said in an unfriendly tone, "Furthermore, you promised to cooperate with TN Group. Can't you teach Yvan a lesson in the process? You can work and take revenge at the same time. It's a win-win situation."Yuna found her teacher's words amusing."If something goes wrong, I will back you up. All I hope is for you to advance further in your career. Only when you are at the top will others nod and agree with you without question, even if you say or do something wrong. That kid is pretty smart. He even called me to hint at me."Upon hearing this, Yuna understood why her teacher happened to call her at this time. Yvan actually approached her teacher. She calmly agreed with her teacher. "I understand, Teacher.""Okay, think it over carefully."After hanging up, Yuna calmly returned to her seat with Ashton's proposal in her hand. "Mr. Yale, your project is quite innovative, and I'm indeed interested in it."Ashton seemed to understand the meaning behind her words. "Ms. Surra
There was a great crashThe white BMW didn't fare any better. The front left side of the car collided with Yuna's car."Rose, are you okay?"Rose had a wound on her forehead. Clutching her forehead, she said, "I'm fine, Ms. Feron. I'll get off and take a look.""It's okay, I'll do it." Yuna got out of the car. Meanwhile, the driver of the white BMW got out too. It was Daisy.Seeing this, Yuna frowned slightly. What a coincidence.Daisy's face paled, fear present in her eyes. Right after she got out of the car, she called Yvan. "Yvan, what am I supposed to do now? I got into a car accident."The moment she saw Yuna, she was stunned. "Yuna?"Yvan's brows furrowed when he heard Yuna's name on the other end of the phone. "Daisy, is Yuna there?""Yvan, I think I hit Yuna's car.""Don't worry. I'll be right there."Daisy forced a stiff smile. "Yuna, what a coincidence. I hit your car.""It is indeed a coincidence." Yuna glanced at the lane beside them and continued, "Ms. Bailey,
Upon hearing Daisy's words, Yvan seemed surprised. Daisy pushed him. "Go and apologize to Ms. Feron. It was all my fault."Yvan's face was gentle. Staring at Daisy's pale face, he instructed, "Michael, get the doctor to do a thorough check-up for Daisy. I'll come to see you later."Daisy nodded obediently, but nobody noticed the anger that flashed across her eyes when Yvan hurriedly exited the ward.She secretly clenched her fists. She didn't expect Yuna would make the first move, making it impossible for her to tell Yvan the story according to her plan. She even had to make her man side with Yuna.Yuna really changed. She was no longer the weak woman from seven years ago. That made her even more of a threat. Daisy would never let anyone take Yvan away!After Rose was done with her check-up, Yuna pushed her out in a wheelchair."Ms. Feron, I've never had such an expensive body check-up before."Yuna smiled. "Don't worry. Someone paid for it.""Huh?" Rose suddenly thought of s
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
