After the chat with Abigail, Yuna was ready to call a cab and head home. Abigail kindly offered to drive her home. Just when they were about to leave, Yuna received a call from Sherry. "Yuna, that brat Blake is here in my shop." Yuna heard loud bangs from the other side of the phone and instantly got a headache. "Sherry, did he do anything to you?" Sherry said, "I'm hiding in my storeroom, and he can't get in for now. Harry is still on duty. My call can't reach him at all. But I've called the police." "Don't be scared. Wait for me. I'll be there soon." Ending the call, Yuna seemed anxious as she asked, "Ms. Jordan, can you drive me somewhere?" Abigail had already started her car. "Just tell me the address." In just ten minutes, they reached Paleo Studio and saw a huge mess at the entrance before they even entered. The first thing Abigail did was take a picture of the entrance. Meanwhile, Yuna walked inside the shop with her crutch. She saw that the police had already ha
"What nonsense are you talking about?" "Dad, you clearly know that he damaged my friend's shop and ruined my image in front of my friend. Why aren't you siding with me instead?" "You!" "It's your problem to deal with as to how you're going to get him released. If there's anything else after this, why don't you talk to my lawyer? I have other matters to handle, so let's end the call here." After that, Yuna hung up and left the study. The dinner was already prepared when Yuna came out, as if nothing was out of the ordinary. Everyone then started eating. Natalie and Nathaniel were quietly having their healthy kids' meals. Harry was working overtime, so only Yuna and Sherry were having dinner together. Sherry asked, "Is that a call from the Ferons?" Nonchalantly, Yuna said, "Don't worry about it. I'll deal with the rest of the matter. As for the studio, you should just rest for these few days. I'll call someone up to have it repaired." Sherry pouted unhappily. "Did I ask
Yuna knew what he wanted to talk to her about, so she said, "Let's talk in the car then." Herbert could only agree with her and talk in the car. When the door was closed, he frowned and spoke with a serious tone, "Blake is your brother. How could you do this to him? Even if you don't care, aren't you afraid that him being locked up would make you look bad at the research center?" Hearing that, Yuna smiled. "Don't worry about it, Dad. Blake's incident won't affect my work here even a bit." "You!" Herbert was pissed off. "Don't you understand what I'm talking about? If something happens to Blake, how would it affect the Ferons' name? Have you forgotten that you're a shareholder of the Feron company as well? If the company is affected by this, you'll suffer from a loss too." Yuna knew that Herbert was just worried about the company from the beginning. "If something like this happens, it's inevitable. Dad, it's not that I don't want to do anything. But Blake said he wanted to kil
Yuna got the news soon after. Herbert was planning to bail Blake out with a huge sum of money. That was expected. And so, Yuna asked Abigail to do something to pressure the Ferons and spread Blake's misdemeanor to the shareholders of the Feron company. Not long after, Herbert was so busy handling all the troubles that he was overwhelmed. He even called Yuna to come over to the company. Yuna agreed to go. After she was done with her work at the research center, she brought Abigail along to the Feron company. She had wanted to visit the Feron company a bit later, but she thought it was necessary for her to carry out both her plans at the same time. After all, she had been staying at Jefton State for too long. "Based on the information you gave me, you currently hold the second most shares in the Feron company," Abigail said as she drove. "The reason Mr. Feron asked you to visit the company is to pressure the other shareholders and stabilize the company's situation." Only
When Herbert heard that, his face turned sour as he said, "Yuna is now a researcher at the West Drew Institute. She's even collaborating with the TN Group. How would she be able to help with the company matters? It's difficult enough for me to be able to call her here." Yuna curled her lips into a smile without saying anything. She'd listen to what others had to say. "Based on my understanding, one doesn't need a long time to complete a research and development project. Since Ms. Feron's work has already lasted over a month, I believe the collaborative project is finishing up soon, right?" At that moment, everyone had their eyes on her. Yuna nodded lightly. "Yes." That man continued, "Speaking of which, it's not like Mr. Blake will be taking over Mr. Feron's position as the company president. So it should be okay to wait for Ms. Feron for another two months. Mr. Feron, we, as the shareholders, would only continue our support if the company has the best development and future.
Yuna nodded. She turned her face slightly to look at the overjoyed Herbert. "But Blake has to agree on a few terms." Herbert agreed immediately, "We'll accept any terms if it means saving your brother." The others kept quiet. Hearing his firm answer, Yuna smiled. "He'll have to apologize to my friend, compensate for the damage in the shop and emotional distress. Finally, he has to promise me not to do anything bad to me ever again here in this room and in front of everyone." The first two terms were reasonable, but Herbert thought the last term was unreasonable. How would he look if he allowed his son to apologize to Yuna in front of everyone here? Seeing Herbert's hesitation, Yuna asked with a smile, "Dad, these terms shouldn't be too unreasonable. Besides, I think Blake would definitely change after this kind of incident. Wouldn't this kill two birds with one stone?" Herbert almost blew a fuse. Right then, someone spoke up, "If Mr. Blake is really to change after this i
Kiara was taken aback again. "One of your Dads is dead?" Natalie answered, "Yeah, it's true. My Dad died." Kiara was sucking on her lollipop and only realized what Natalie meant after a long while. Did that mean her real father was dead and that she was only left with her foster parents? She couldn't help but look at Natalie pitifully and reached out to hug her. Right then, Natalie added, "But I know that my real Dad hasn't died yet." "Huh?" "He just doesn't want us anymore. He has a new baby with another woman." Kiara just wanted to curse out loud, but now she didn't know what to reply. This child seemed to be around six years old. "Natalie …" "Aunty, I have to go back to class. Thank you for your lollipop. Let's play together another time." After that, Natalie trotted back to the academic building. As she watched Natalie's back, Kiara's heart ached more and more for her. She wanted to head over to the classroom and take a look at her brother in secret. But right t
Blake couldn't say anything, fearing he would be locked up again. After all, Harry held a certain profession. After he apologized, he couldn't be bothered to stay there any longer and turned to leave. However, Yuna stopped him. "Stop right there. We're not done here, and you're just walking off?" Hearing her words, Blake turned around impatiently. "What else do you want?" Yuna sauntered up to him. "What's wrong? Didn't our father tell you that you need to apologize to me in front of all the shareholders?" Blake's expression darkened. "Enough bullshit. That's not possible." "Give him a call then." Yuna understood his confusion and said lightheartedly, "It's fine if you want to leave. But if you do, I'll have to go to the company and give a public statement about this. I won't be sure if they'll still appoint you as the next successor." Blake stood stiffly, glaring at her with hatred. "So, you're plotting against me again?" "I wouldn't word it like that. You should ask our
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
