Yuna turned around when she didn't hear any response from Yvan, but she didn't see anyone there. "Did he just leave like that?" she thought. Yuna felt slightly down. She limped out with the help of her cane, and to her surprise, she found Yvan standing to the right of the door. His appearance startled her, which led to Yvan quickly holding her by her waist. "How are you such a scaredy-cat?" he asked. After she regained her balance, she pushed him aside and asked, "You were the one who left mysteriously. Why do you appear all of a sudden? Since you already left, why did you decide to look for me again?" The atmosphere seemed to have taken a romantic turn all of a sudden.Yuna felt Yvan's burning gaze on her. Still, she calmly raised her head and commented, "Mr. Jenkins, even though you're our business partner, the institute isn't a place anyone can enter. Since you keep coming in so frequently, you'll also be held responsible should anything go missing." "Are the security cam
Yuna took another deep breath instead of replying to Yvan. The car cruised down the streets, soon arriving in front of a familiar condominium. Yuna questioned with a scowl, "Why did you bring me here?" "To eat," Yvan answered. Yuna felt that he was talking gibberish. Yvan stood at the main door and looked at her with his head tilted, a playful glint in his eyes. "Did you think I tricked you into coming here?" "Why didn't you send me home?" Yuna demanded. "I couldn't be bothered to do that." Yuna seethed. "You could've dropped me halfway so that I could hail a ride." Yvan frowned slightly but kept his tone casual. "Even if I were to tell you to live in this place, you could've just said yes, couldn't you? Have you forgotten our relationship?" "Thank you for reminding me every time!" Yuna gave him a disgusted look. "I don't think you'd resort to hurting a cripple like me." "When there's a will, there's a way," Yvan replied. Yuna's face turned red at that moment.
The atmosphere turned sour. Yvan's expression darkened as he glared at her coldly. "Do you really have to do this?"Yuna retorted, "I should be the one asking you that question. I can understand where you're coming from; you need to protect your girlfriend, after all. However, I'm on my own now, so I have to stand my ground. Besides, we're all adults here. There's no need to look for sympathy. That just leaves one solution; as long as you provide me with substantial proof that she's mentally ill, I might consider not taking any action against her.""Yuna! Mind your language!""Mr. Jenkins, don't you dare think of me as a pushover just because I'm a woman," Yuna spat out coldly. Then, she took out all her cash and placed it on the table. "Thank you for the meal, Mr. Jenkins. Let me know if this isn't enough to cover the meal, and I'll wire you the money." "Have I given you the permission to leave?" Yvan snapped. Yuna supported herself on her crutches and looked Yvan squarely i
Harry detected the sullenness in her tone and knew that she was in a bad mood. "Was it Yvan?" he asked.Yuna didn't reply, but Harry could ascertain the answer from her silence. "Is it about the incident at the hospital with Daisy?" Yuna took a deep breath to calm herself. Harry was certain that was the case, causing him to frown as his prejudice toward Yvan deepened. "Daisy's the one who's at fault, yet he wants you to trivialize the matter. Why couldn't he think about how you survived the past seven years? Did he seriously tell you to be nice to Daisy just because he said so?" Yuna stifled a laugh after hearing what Harry said. Harry kept frowning the whole time. "What are you laughing about? Can't you see I'm angry on your behalf?" "Thank you," Yuna replied. "If you say that again, I'm going to leave you alone," Harry retorted with a frown. Yuna shrugged her shoulders. "You're my children's godfather. Are you sure you're going to do that?" "And here I thought befrie
Natalie nodded, "Yup, Nathaniel and I realized it too. The way they teach here is different from our old preschool, and we get to learn a lot about the local culture. We like it very much." Yuna nodded in satisfaction, "That's right. Also, don't complain that the lessons are too simple in front of the teachers, got it?" Nathalie responded, "I got it, mommy." Yuna promised them, "Once I've settled in at my workplace, I'll spend more time with the both of you; and if it's possible, Mommy will bring you both out to play, alright?" Natalie asked, "Is it alright for us to be outside?"The adults in the room became teary-eyed upon hearing that question. They have been hiding away from the Jenkins family, but the kids were not told about it, so it was hard for the adults to answer Natalie. Natalie continued, "Nathaniel and my identities were kept secret when we were overseas to avoid affecting Mommy's work. If our identities are exposed here, is Mommy's company going to fire her?"
After Yuna's conversation with Abigail, she asked Sherry to drive her to the research center. Sherry asked anxiously, "Will this work? With Yvan having Daisy's back, I think we'll lose the court case soon." However, Yuna was calm. "Even if we lose, it's not like we can't start a new case. Besides, how do you think Yvan could protect Daisy if this matter gets publicized again? Not only that, Daisy has a fanbase of her own." Sherry felt somewhat relieved after hearing that. "We'll sit back and watch what happens then. Let's see how Yvan can protect Daisy this time. Right, do you think Daisy would do anything to you if she gets agitated by this?" Yuna smiled. "I'm waiting for her to do just that." …Kiara came to Warton Kindergarten once again. She didn't have to come on her own, but she just couldn't shake off the thought of that little girl from her mind. So, she couldn't help but revisit this place just to see her. After getting out of the car, she didn't expect to see Har
Natalie and Nathaniel went through a full-body checkup, but there was nothing wrong with their bodies. Still, the teacher said worriedly, "It's great that there's nothing wrong. But for safety reasons, they should stay here for observation for half an hour. I'll be able to contact their parents by then." The doctor nodded in agreement. After all, the children studying at Warton Kindergarten were all from rich families. The school staff just couldn't afford to hurt them. Natalie and Nathaniel exchanged a look because they felt something was off. Natalie whispered, "Nathaniel, who do you think called the teacher? Why did they do that?" Nathaniel took a guess. "The one that called the teacher has to be either Aunty Sherry or Uncle Harry. Something must have happened if they made that call so suddenly. For example, they don't want us to get discovered." Hearing that, Natalie's eyes lit up. "Did someone from the Jenkins family come to Warton? Aunty Sherry and Uncle Harry knew abou
After discussion, Sherry and Harry decided not to tell Yuna about the situation in Warton for now. After all, nothing bad happened. They shouldn't bother Yuna about it. But Yuna was sitting restlessly in her office. What bothered her was whether everything on Abigail's side would go smoothly and nothing else. Nearly two hours after Yuna arrived at the research center, her phone vibrated. She took her phone and saw that it was Yvan. Calm and composed, she walked out of the office with her crutch to take the call. Suppressing his anger, Yvan demanded, "Did you actually get a lawyer?" Yuna raised an eyebrow in amusement. "Are you questioning me, Mr. Jenkins?" "Do you have to go to such lengths for this?" "I've chosen the most civilized route to settle this. Mr. Jenkins, please be clear that I'm the victim here." Yuna had already gone back inside the office. "Or should I faint as well and get surgery to prove that I'm weak to gain your sympathy?" "Other than this, I can pro
