Yuna then called Cedric and told him someone had helped her find Orion. She didn't tell Cedric that this person was Yvan. Instead, she claimed that it was Lucian. Yvan let her make the call. But after she ended the call, he asked tensely, "Why didn't you say it was me?" Calmly, Yuna said, "Cedric would come over if he knew that it was you. I don't want to see the two of you fight." "So, did you do that for his sake or mine?" "For my own sake." Yvan laughed helplessly. Not long after, they finally reached the restaurant at the hotel. Because of Yvan's status, nobody tried to stop them. There were even people who led him upstairs without question. Soon, they arrived at the private room where the Stephen family had booked for dinner. When the door was pushed open, their laughter and chatter was cut off. Everyone looked toward Yvan and Yuna, who entered the room. Alberto Stephen, Daphne Stephen, and Orion were confused. Only Orianna had an uneasy expression on her fac
Orianna didn't say a word. With a smile, Yuna said, "Mr. Stephen, you shouldn't blame Ms. Orianna for this. She probably did this to avenge her best friend." Orianna's face instantly paled. She jerked her head up furiously. "This was my idea. It had nothing to do with Daisy!" Yvan's face darkened after hearing that. Even Orion said harshly, "Orianna, did you not remember what I told you last time?" "This is my decision. It has nothing to do with anyone else." Orianna remained stubborn. Coldly, Yvan said, "Since that's what you said, you shall bear the consequences. Don't get help from anyone else." Hearing his words, Alberto quickly said, "Mr. Jenkins, it's my fault. I didn't raise my daughter well enough. "As compensation, I'll gift the place to Ms. Feron for free for the few years Orianna has rented it. I'll bring her home and lecture her properly so she won't cause you any trouble anymore. "Since our families are on good terms and we might collaborate in the future
Because of what Yvan said, Yuna became curious. So she did a simple research on the Stephen family's situation abroad. She actually found some information. Alberto would negotiate businesses through despicable means. When his workers protested, he asked the authorities to catch them and sentence them heavily. It was clear how arrogant the Stephen family was in their home country. When she first met Orianna, she did look up their family briefly. But this information never came up. Now, she found the articles on a foreign online forum. She could tell how well the Stephen family hid their scandals. It seemed that Yvan was right. Sometimes, she really shouldn't judge a book by its cover. So, if that was the case, did the Stephen family have an ulterior motive for moving to the Jefton State? Maybe they couldn't survive abroad any longer, that was why … Laying on the bed, Yuna tried to not think about those things that didn't matter anymore. …The next day, Yuna asked to
Hearing that, Kiara sat up in shock. "You knew? As expected, you guys are close enough for him to tell you anything." Yuna pulled her down to sit. "No, he just wanted to give you a surprise." "For me? Surprise?" Kiara became confused. "Harry thinks he couldn't be with you because he has no status or money." Kiara looked upset when she heard that. "I've never even thought of that." "Kiara, you forgot what I told you at the hospital again." Kiara nodded. "You can continue." "He likes motorcycles a lot, and he always dreamt of starting a motorcycle club. So Sherry and I sponsored him to rent a venue so that he could start the business," Yuna explained. She added, "It's still being furnished now. He told us that he'd surprise you on the day it starts operating." As she expected, Kiara was so stunned that she couldn't say a word. After a long while, she only answered, "He must've needed a lot of money to start a club. Do you guys have enough to spend?" As she spoke, sh
Seeing how she was concerned about him, his brow relaxed. He even joked, "Are you genuinely concerned about me, or are you doing this out of courtesy?" Yuna couldn't understand why he said that. Confused, she asked, "I'm just checking up on you out of concern. Is there a problem with that? Just pretend that I never asked." After that, she lowered her head and continued eating. Yvan was speechless. Did he just shoot himself in the foot? When she didn't lift her head up to ask anything else, Yvan looked upset again. "I was just asking you a question. Why did you have to react that way?" "I was just showing concern. Did you have to doubt my sincerity?" "So you think there's no difference between good and bad people in this world?" "You should only judge that based on different occasions. Can't you tell if the other person is being genuine or not in different situations?" Yvan didn't have to think much about that. He'd certainly be able to tell if he was talking to anyb
Yuna just watched him in silence. Yvan continued, "I've told you. I'd help you investigate what's going on in Roseville." Shocked, Yuna asked, "Did you find something out?" Yvan nodded. "Like I told you last time, they haven't officially started anything there. So their actions wouldn't be too obvious. "Besides, there's no trace of Herbert in that town at all, which means he hired someone to assume his new identity. It's to make everyone think that the new company is started under someone else's name." Upon hearing that, Yuna's face darkened. "If that's what he's doing, he probably has other plans." "It's simple. He doesn't want to give up on the Feron company just like that. He certainly hopes to steal another huge sum from the company before leaving. "That way, he wouldn't have suffered from any losses," Yvan analyzed. Yuna agreed. "Besides, he intends to abandon Cora and their two children. He might already have another woman." That didn't gauge much reaction out o
The next day, Liam also told Yuna about what he found. "I can't believe she's Cora's sister." Liam sounded shocked. "Yuna, if Cora finds out about this, she'd definitely make a big fuss. It'd be the perfect time for our counterattack. Don't you think so?" "It's not the right time yet. If we expose him now, we wouldn't know what might come out of it," Yuna said calmly. Liam was confused, but Vince understood. "Dad, what Yuna meant was that since Mr. Feron has started a new company in Roseville, he'd have the chance to escape. "In the end, he wouldn't be punished here. In that case, our plan wouldn't have succeeded." "That's right." Liam remained silent for a moment. After some thinking, he thought that it made sense. "So we shouldn't expose him for now?" "Not now, but we can collect it as evidence. Now that Herbert plans to have a new child, things would be even more exciting when Cora's sister gets pregnant." Liam then realized what her plan was. He had to agree wit
"Allow me, Ms. Feron." But Yuna covered her glass with her hand and smiled. "Excuse me, Mr. Ernie. I don't usually drink at noon." Seeing how she refused him, Herbert looked dissatisfied. "It's just one glass of wine. Why are you turning him down? Someone will drive you later. "You can just go back home and rest in the afternoon. You think I'd force you to work later?" Ernie said understandingly, "Ms. Feron is just being professional with her job. There's nothing wrong with that. Since you don't enjoy drinking, should we have cider instead?" Yuna couldn't refuse him. "Of course." Herbert still seemed upset. He was about to lecture Yuna, but he eventually gave up. Of course, Yuna had sensed Herbert's intention, but she was going to wait and see what Herbert was up to. Soon, the cider was served. When Ernie poured her a drink, Yuna didn't refuse him this time. Herbert furrowed his brow. But since Henry asked him to have some drinks as well, Herbert didn't bother about
