Sherry nodded and agreed. "That's right, what you did is dangerous. Not only that, you two are adorable. What if someone wants to kidnap you and make you other people's children? You won't be able to see Aunty Sherry and Uncle Spencer anymore by then." The twin remained silent. They weren't scared by Sherry's words at all. If those people wanted to kidnap and sell them off, they would have to be capable enough to do so. Although that was what they were thinking about, they were smart enough to not show disobedience in front of the adults. Natalie blinked as she used her ultimate weapon. "Aunty Sherry, Nathaniel and I know what we did is wrong. We'll definitely not run off like this again." Nathaniel nodded in agreement. Seeing that, Harry said, "Since they know what they did is wrong, I think they won't do it again. Let's stop scolding them." Natalie added with a docile tone, "Yeah, Nathaniel and I won't do this again." Nathaniel nodded again. Yuna waved at them. "Alright
Yuna watched her two children. When she was with them, she always gave them what they wanted. Whether or not it was their birthday or hers, the three of them always spent it together. She was about to say she wouldn't celebrate her birthday this time, but thinking of how the two prepared a birthday gift for her, words stuck in Yuna's mouth. If she sent them abroad right now, wouldn't they get really sad? They were the most precious existence to Yuna. Naturally, she couldn't bear to see them disappointed and sad. Seeing how Yuna was having doubts now, Nathaniel sent a look to Natalie in secret. After getting the signal, Natalie approached Yuna and went into her arms. "Mommy, Nathaniel and I want to spend your birthday with you. Promise you'll only send us abroad after the birthday, okay?" Nathaniel said, "Mommy, your birthday is in just a few days. Why don't we just stay at home and keep Mommy company? We won't go to school." Natalie nodded. "Yeah, we want to stay with Mommy
When Yuna was rushing to the research center, Kiara kindly notified her brother about the situation as soon as possible. "My bad brother, don't blame me for not giving you a chance. Aren't you a sponsor of the West Drew Institute? Why don't you know about the problem Yuna's having over there? She's heading back to the research center to discuss this with the president. It sounds like there's a problem with her contract with the research center." As she spoke, Kiara complained, "Be more considerate, will you?" After half an hour, Yuna was seated in the biggest meeting room in the research center. This was also her first time facing all the higher-ups of the research center. Although she was all alone, she was fearless. These people were somewhat afraid of her status anyway. The president spoke up first, "Surra, we've discussed this ourselves. You clearly know how you have been negatively affecting the whole of West Drew Institute. Even if you succeed in completing the project, w
Everyone instantly held their breath the moment they heard that. Indeed, they never thought of reaching out to Yvan regarding this matter. His sudden appearance caught all of them off guard. Almost everyone present had already stood up, but Yuna was the only one still seated, not moving an inch. Although she was also curious how Yvan arrived just in time, she already had some guesses. She simply watched them in silence. With an awkward smile, there was a hint of fear in the president's eyes. He said, "It's all a misunderstanding, Mr. Jenkins. We just didn't want to bother you with something so minor." Yuna chuckled and said, "Something minor? Does that mean you consider this a minor matter?" Her words instantly made the atmosphere turn even colder. Yvan turned and looked at Yuna. "What's the matter?" he asked. Seeing how he directed the question to Yuna, everyone became ill at ease again. The president quickly explained, "Mr. Jenkins, for this matter—" "I don't need you t
Finally, the president signed a new contract with Yuna, which took immediate effect. Yuna's cold eyes scanned across these authorities who were now terrified by Yvan. Without another word, she turned around and left. She eventually decided to give Rose the power to finish up the last part of their project. She could just guide them online, working from home. When she got out of the research center, Yvan's Maybach was already parked right in front of her. "Get in." "I've called a cab," Yuna said. "But I saved you just now. What? Are you going to turn against me this soon?" Yvan fired back. "Get in. Don't make me repeat myself." Pursing her lips, Yuna had no choice but to get into the passenger seat, and the car sped off. Yvan was driving, but his eyes would rest on her occasionally. He asked with a frown, "Why didn't you tell me right away when something like that happened?" Calmly, Yuna replied, "I could handle it myself." Yvan snickered. "By talking it out with all o
Yuna moved away her suspecting gaze without another word. She merely lowered her head and read the document in her hand. Yvan's eyes were still narrowed, not moving his gaze away from her even for a second. Feeling uncomfortable being watched by him, Yuna had no choice but to speak up. "When we reach a certain age, our bodies wouldn't be able to work as hard as we used to. So you don't have to be bothered by what I said just now." "Really?" "Of course." Yuna nodded ever so genuinely. "But it's right to take some rest in between work." Yvan didn't argue with her further. Right then, Michael entered with some coffee and afternoon snacks. He felt at ease when he sensed nothing bad was going on between the two. After placing the drinks and food on the table, he left. During the break, Yuna didn't try to go into personal topics with Yvan. She focused on the contents of the document the whole time. Yvan, on the other hand, would steal a few glances at her every now and then. Havi
Yuna paused for a second. There was a look of surprise on her face. Yvan's expression didn't change. "I'm saying that so you won't keep giving me strange looks all the time. I can't focus on work." Yuna wondered if she didn't manage to control her facial expressions well enough. "What? Now that I'm giving you a chance, you don't want to ask any questions? Do you enjoy making assumptions?" Yvan shot her with rapid-fire questions. Yuna felt as if Yvan had seen through her. Indeed, she was going to think about it herself. Maybe if it piqued her interest again, she'd ask Kiara about it. "Did you have a fight with Daisy?" she asked, her face tense. "No." Hearing that answer, Yuna thought that she had, in fact, been overthinking. "Why would we fight if we're not even in a relationship?" Yvan asked her. Yuna felt a mix of emotions when she heard that. It seemed like she might be misinterpreting the situation, but was there any other way to understand it? Were Yvan and Yuna
Yuna knew that there was food at Golden Prestige, but she didn't think that Yvan would bring her there for supper. Besides, there were all sorts of people in the place. Wouldn't that make it easier to expose them? As Yuna followed Yvan inside, she tried to lower her head as much as possible, not wanting anyone to see her face. Yvan noticed her trying to act discreetly and sighed. He grabbed her arm and went straight into an elevator, which took them to the fifth floor. When the door was opened, Yuna found the place familiar. It was Gabriel's private lounge area. Instantly, Yuna relaxed a little, and she followed Yvan inside. Gabriel and Lucian were chatting away. Gabriel happily downed a mouthful of his drink, but he spat it all out the moment he saw Yvan and Yuna. Lucian waved them over with a smile when he saw them appearing together. "Ah, we're having quite the unexpected guest." Yvan sat down and said, "Ask your men to serve us supper." Gabriel wiped his mouth and quick
