Yuna looked at him. Her heart stopped when she heard his words. She felt that something bad was going to happen. When she saw the sneer on Yvan's face, she thought she had guessed it right. She calmed herself down and asked, "So this is your condition, isn't it?" There was a slight smile on Yvan's face, but he wasn't saying anything. Yuna said, "If this is your condition, I'm willing to take it. Now then, can you tell me what's the clue?" Her words instantly made Yvan upset. With a dark expression, he asked, "Would you unconditionally fulfill just any condition if anyone says he has the clue?" "That's right!" At that moment, Yvan almost couldn't suppress the fury in his chest. He grabbed Yuna's shoulders with both his hands. Gritting his teeth, he howled in a low voice, "Go ahead and do that then!" "What are you angry about?" Yuna snickered. "Yvan Jenkins, wait till the day when you're almost murdered by someone, but you don't know who's the culprit. You, too, would try t
Yvan ate without giving her a reply. As if Yuna was baited by him, her eyes were fixed on him, waiting for his response, but it was to no avail. Yvan ignored her the whole time and only focused on eating. Then, Michael came in and whispered something to him, and he wiped his mouth as he got up to leave. Seeing this, Yuna was agitated. She felt as if she was being fooled. "Stop right there, Yvan. We're not done talking yet!" Yvan stopped in his tracks. He turned around and said expressionlessly, "I'll find a chance to talk to you about it. But not now. It'll depend on your performance." After that, he left right away. Hearing his response, Yuna almost cursed out loud. She knew Yvan was leaving her hanging on purpose. No, she wouldn't let Yvan control her like this. She had to ask that person whether he had found any useful clue for her. Regaining her composure, Yuna left Birchwood Heights after she finished her breakfast. Because of that, she avoided meeting Mrs. Jenkins, who
"65%," Yuna replied honestly. "Seems like you're finishing up soon, then." Mayson was satisfied with the progress. "When this project succeeds, West Drew Institute's reputation will be improved as well, and it's all thanks to you. Hang in there, Yuna. Please tolerate Mr. Jenkins. Although you were once husband and wife, you're not related to each other now anymore after all. Personally, I think the fact that you took over this project means you'll be professional enough to separate personal issues from work. That's why I have faith in you. I also hope that you can keep this up. Alright?" "Yes, I understand." Yuna could tell that Mayson still hadn't gotten to the main point. What a lengthy foreshadowing. "Alright, you should get back to work in peace now." Hearing that, Yuna narrowed her eyes slightly. She thought Mayson would get to the main point after this, not expecting him to send her back at all. "Is there anything you want to talk to me about, Yuna?" Mayson asked curi
With his arms crossed, Spencer was wearing a cap and a face mask. He leaned against the corner of the elevator and said calmly, "Even if he's looking for me just because of Surra's matter, it would have nothing to do with you, Paisley." He lowered his voice so that only Paisley could hear. Hearing his words did not calm Paisley down; instead, it sent her into more panic. "Have you forgotten that you're now associated with his ex-wife? What if he makes things hard for you by then?" "As my main sponsor, the most he would do is try to suppress my career here. Then I'll just not work here anymore and go abroad." "You!" Paisley reached out and pinched his ears hard. "Watch your mouth later, okay? Try not to cause any trouble. Even if you don't care about yourself, you have to think about Surra, Natalie, and Nathaniel too. Got that?" "I got it, I got it." The elevator door was finally opened. They arrived right at Yvan's office. Paisley and his other assistant were stopped there,
Instantly, the atmosphere in the office turned cold. Yvan wasn't affected by Spencer's words. Instead, he asked, "So do you know your wife well?" "At least better than you do." "I hope you'll still be able to talk as calmly as you are now to me the next time we meet." "Alright." Spencer took his transaction history document. "I won't disturb you from work anymore then. Do contact my manager if you plan to terminate my contract." With that, he turned and left. Meanwhile, Yvan stared at his back with a meaningful look. He thought about what Spencer had said. He balled up his fists. How did he treat Yuna two years ago? …After Yuna got off from work, she opened the document when she was finally free. There was information about a specific person inside. Oliver Lewis, 28 years old, a part-time racer, an orphan, and so on. After staring at the documents for a while, she read the last two pieces of information. Oliver and Daisy had been classmates ever since middle school, a
Ignoring Sherry's persistent questioning, Yuna hung up the call as she calmly faced the aggressive woman across from her. "I'm asking you, are you Yuna Feron?" "Who are you then?" Yuna asked. The woman stood in front of her arrogantly and said with pride, "I'm Molly Yale, Ashton's sister." Hearing that, Yuna was slightly taken aback. "Is there anything you need from me, Miss Yale?" Molly sized her up and snickered. "I have to admit that you do look quite appealing. But no matter how attractive you are, you're still a divorcee. What makes you think you have the right to lure my brother? You're unlucky enough to bump into me today. Stay away from my brother. You'll never get to marry into the Yale family." Yuna finally understood what she meant. She answered calmly, "Don't worry, I have nothing to do with your brother. We're just normal friends." "Normal friends? You're drawing a line now, but after this, you'll stick around my brother again." Molly was persistent as she
Yuna nearly slammed on the brakes from the news. Sherry sensed something was wrong and added, "Don't worry, they weren't discovered. It's just that I heard from Miss Jenkins that Arthur did investigate the kids before. Now that I think of it, didn't Benson know Natalie's name right away when he was at school?" When she said that, Yuna felt something was weird too. "Yuna, did they find out about the kids from early on?" Sherry asked worriedly. "Probably not. If they really did, Grandpa Jenkins would have asked to meet and ask me about it." Although Yuna said that firmly, she still felt something was wrong. "It's okay. It's all good as long as they're not seen by Grandpa Jenkins yet for now. I'll investigate the rest of the matter." Hanging up on the call, Yuna stayed dumbfounded for a few seconds before starting the car and heading toward Birchwood Heights. She already possessed the clue about Oliver Lewis, but she still wanted to find out if Yvan's clue was the same as hers.
Seeing how she was defending her man, fury filled his eyes as he tried to suppress it. He said, "His profile says that he's unmarried, so he breached the term of fraud." Yuna had nothing to say after hearing his words. She had caused Spencer to lose his job as an ambassador. "Yuna, back when we were married, you were thinking of all sorts of ways like this to get close to me. Now that you're remarried, you're still being so considerate of men. Why don't you care about yourself for once?" Yvan said with slight anger. "It seems to be none of your business as to how I do things or live my life." Unaffected, Yuna replied. "Do you think I want to control how you live your life?" "Then why are you saying all of these?" Yuna retorted. Placing down his cutleries, the anger Yvan had been suppressing for a long time finally exploded. "If you really want nothing to do with me, you shouldn't have returned to Jefton State. Just live a secret life abroad with your man." Yuna was shocke
