Hearing that, Yuna immediately spoke up for Vince. "I was having dinner with a friend, so I didn't ask him to stay. I didn't want him to get bored."Don't blame Vince. Even if they came to a compromise with the Stephen family in my place, they still don't have any right to interfere with what I want to do since I wasn't there, right?" Liam thought her words made sense. "Dad wouldn't be able to control me." "That's true." Liam seemed more relieved now. He added, "Even if that's the case, you should be more careful. I never expected your Dad to be someone so horrible to betray his daughter." Yuna smiled and didn't say anything more. After explaining things to Liam, Herbert heard she had arrived at the company. So, he sent his assistant to bring her upstairs. When Yuna arrived, Herbert had already prepared a cup of tea for her. She didn't move an inch while she sat on the couch with an icy look. "Are you going to talk to me about Orion's visit today?" she asked, despite
"Alright then, I'll go meet you. Tell me where you want me to go!" Molly gritted her teeth as she spoke. Yuna narrowed her eyes. Seeing how stubborn Molly was, she was curious why Molly wanted to see her too. After telling her where to meet, she hung up. Then, she asked Vince to drive her there. She arrived at a private room in a restaurant to see Molly. But before she could sit down, Molly held a card to her face. "Why is Ashton's bank card with you?" Seeing that, Yuna then realized what was going on. Molly must've found the card that Yuna hid in the bouquet. She was here to reprimand Yuna. "Can't you tell I'm returning this to Mr. Yale?" "Returning?" Molly looked surly and pompous. "I knew it. You're just after our family's money. You only knew Ashton for a short while, and you're already asking so much money from him." Gritting her teeth, Molly continued bitterly, "Your next plan is to persuade Ashton to marry you, isn't it? "I'm telling you, Yuna, only women wit
Averting her eyes from Molly's pale face, Yuna glanced at the card for a few seconds. Then, she said casually, "There's quite a huge amount of money in there. Be careful with it and return it to your brother soon. I won't take responsibility if you lose it somewhere." After that, she led Vince to leave the place. Molly only breathed a sigh of relief when she couldn't feel Yuna's presence anymore. Why was that woman so terrifying? Molly never expected herself to be scared of her. Gripping the card tightly, she was lost in thought for a long while. Yuna left the restaurant and sat inside the car. Vince said, "Yuna, what if Mr. Yale doesn't know the card is with Molly now?" "She wouldn't dare to steal the money in that card," Yuna replied nonchalantly. Soon, she reached her apartment. She opened the door to find that Yvan wasn't there, but there was still food. Not having any appetite to eat, she went to shower before having a video call with her children. It was rig
Yvan walked into the living room and crouched down. Watching how uncomfortable Yuna seemed in her sleep, he didn't wake her up. Instead, he tucked her hair behind her ears and carried her into the bedroom. He covered her with a blanket, and she rolled over with her back against his. Instead of leaving the room, he sat by the bed and stared at her face. It was so quiet that he could only hear his own breathing. After a few moments, he averted his gaze. He closed the door gently and left. At the same time, Yuna's phone kept vibrating in the living room. When he reached the phone, it stopped vibrating. There was a missed call from Cedric, which made Yvan frown. He knew that it was Cedric Xavier. Right after that, Cedric's text popped up. Yvan didn't want to read it, but he just happened to see it. "You seemed quite troubled. It wasn't the best to ask you in front of Natalie and Nathaniel, so I thought I should call you after sending them to school." Seeing that, Yvan
Yuna was munching on a sandwich when the door was closed. Yvan didn't seem to be in a good mood. Could it be that …Right then, Hesta came out of the kitchen with a warm glass of milk. She sighed and said, "Mr. Jenkins doesn't have it easy. He kept getting messages during the few minutes of him having his breakfast here. That must've ruined his appetite. He's such a busy man." That made Yuna sigh in relief. "Mr. Jenkins is the CEO of the TN Group. It's normal for him to be busy." Hesta said, "I'm just worried about his health worsening. He shouldn't overwork himself just because he's still young." Yuna reassured her, "I think he'd realize that in just a few years." Hesta smiled lovingly at her. Then, she said, "Ms. Feron, please tell him not to overwork himself. He should get enough rest." "Okay, I'll try doing that later." After finishing her breakfast quickly, Yuna headed out to her company too. To her surprise, she bumped into Kiara, who was carrying a bag. It was
After being ridiculed by Yuna, Joe's face contorted with rage. Of course, he couldn't do anything to Yuna here. But he couldn't stand the way she treated him. However, he had already boasted all about the promise to his father. After all, Yuna agreed to his request so easily back then. If his plan didn't succeed, he wouldn't be able to face the rest of the Chandler family. With that thought in mind, Joe looked like he made a decision. His furious look was quickly replaced by a smile. He said, "I definitely don't have as much business knowledge as you do. It's my fault for not being thoughtful enough. "I'll send my assistant to prepare something just for you. It'll surely please you." "Alright then." When Joe turned around, rage flashed across his eyes for a split second. Yuna seemed indifferent. Watching Joe leave, her lips curled into a smile. She was excited about what kind of surprise Joe would give her next. …Finally, Yuna got to think about how to talk thing
Yuna and Darren arrived at the hospital together, attracting much attention. Facing everyone's looks of surprise, she calmly followed Darren behind. This was caught by Orianna, who was pushing Daisy in a wheelchair and passing by. "Isn't that Yuna?" Orianna asked with shock. "Yeah." Daisy would recognize her no matter what, including the man beside her. "Who's that man beside her?" "Darren Bowman. He's Yvan's sworn enemy and also the heir of the Bowman family," Daisy said. Orianna snorted. "Is she a social butterfly or something? She's actually daring enough to talk with all sorts of men. Does Yvan know how close she and that man are? Should we tell him about this?" Daisy shook her head. "There's no need. Yvan knew the relationship between Yuna and Darren well. And I'm guessing that they're here to visit Ashton. They're friends, after all. It's normal to do so." Hearing what Daisy said, Orianna looked displeased. "Daisy, how could you be so kind? You're defending her ev
"I was rushing back from the outskirts of town in the middle of the night. I didn't expect to get into such an unfortunate event on my way back." Ashton paused for a moment. Then, "I heard that Daisy suffered from the most serious injury this time." Yuna nodded. "Yeah, she's in the same hospital as you." Ashton said, "She caused the accident, too. Darren would definitely use this against Yvan. Did he make things difficult for you?" Yuna didn't think Ashton would know Darren so well. With a smile, she shook her head. "I have nothing to do with this car crash. They're the ones whom Darren would go after, not me." "That's true." Even so, Ashton felt that Yuna was hiding something from her. He should ask Darren about this. After chatting for a bit, Yuna received a call. Ashton didn't ask her to stay any longer, either. "Are you two going to have lunch together?" Ashton felt things were getting weirder when he heard about Darren having a meal with Yuna. Darren put on a bri
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
