They immediately moved out.Fortunately, Yuna did not have many things. They swiftly relocated overnight, and it was already past midnight by the time they finally settled down.Yuna first put the children to bed before returning to the living room to have a discussion with Sherry and Harry.“It’s too risky for them to stay,” she said.“It’s a little risky, but as long as Yvan doesn’t find out about this place, we can still hide them here for the time being.” Harry raised his eyebrows and said, “Also, didn’t you say you’ve shortened the time frame of your plan?”While snacking, Sherry asked curiously, “Yuna, if it’s shortened, will your plan be affected? Will you have enough time to find the culprit and deal with the Feron family?”Yuna nodded. “Yes.”Harry looked at her. He could more or less figure out some of the things she had in mind. “Yuna, if you’re too pressed for time, you can leave the children to Sherry and me. You can just do your thing in peace. I can tell the child
Yuna had to admit that Spencer was really famous. While working at the research center, she had heard the hot news of Spencer having two illegitimate children at least five times. Then, she heard something else.“Spencer has just gotten the deal to be the ambassador for TN Group’s new product not too long ago. Do you think that would be affected?”“Based on how efficient, strict, and merciless Mr. Jenkins is, I think he would most likely lose the deal.”Yuna could not help but worry about Spencer when she heard what they said. After all, it was due to her children that Spencer found himself entangled in such a situation.Just when she was lost in her thoughts, her phone rang.When she saw that it was Cedric calling, she immediately got out of the research center to answer the call.Donovan was silently observing every move she made. It seemed like he was plotting something again.“Cedric.”“Surra, I am here at Jefton State. I’m staying at a hotel. When will you be done with
Cedric still had a long face. Yuna’s attempt to persuade him did not placate him. Instead, he said, “The children are not sensible, but he is an adult. Should he also fool along with them? Spencer, you should be thankful that things are still manageable now. Otherwise—”Before he finished his sentence, Spencer hugged his arm and said with great sadness. “Cedric, I know I was wrong. I really do.”Cedric was speechless.Yuna pursed her lips and smiled.Spencer continued acting like a spoiled child. “I’m really sorry. I won’t do it again. I was too careless this time because I love the children very much.”Cedric scrunched his nose and shook him off. “Don’t make me feel disgusted.”Seeing that, Yuna took the chance and said, “Alright. Cedric has forgiven you.”Spencer immediately smiled and sat on the chair properly.Cedric took a sip of his coffee, then asked sullenly, “How is your manager planning to deal with this?”Spencer quickly sat up straight and answered obediently, “It’
Yuna was reminded about her promise to visit Grandpa Jenkins, though she hadn’t foreseen Yvan taking it upon himself to remind her about this personally.“What? Are you going to stand there and lecture me about my interactions with different men? Besides, how did you even find out that I had met another man?” she scolded.Yvan glared at her as he replied, “I have no interest in your affairs. Get in.”She felt uneasy as she stared at his back. She asked herself, “Did he spot Spencer entering the MPV?”While en route, Yuna caught sight of an old cake store and promptly requested, “Michael, could you please pull over?”Yvan cocked a brow. “What are you doing?”“This is one of Grandpa Jenkins’ favorite bakeries. Do you really expect me to visit an elder empty-handed?” she replied as she exited the car.He scrutinized the bakery while she stood outside the car. A distant look filled his eyes as he inquired, “Grandpa is fond of this old bakery?”Michael shook his head. He wasn’t sure
Arthur’s eyes instantly lit up with delight when he heard this. “That’s great! Yvan has a place nearby, Yuna, so think of it as doing me a favor and make some gnocchi for me, please?”Yuna was stunned, but she couldn’t bear to watch the old man go hungry when she saw the pitiful look on his face. Thus, she had no choice but to compromise and head to Yvan’s place to cook.Arthur had a pleased look on his face as he ate the cakes and watched the pair. He pointed at Benson and praised him. “Clever man.”“Of course. How could I possibly not know what you’re thinking when I’ve served you for so many years?” Benson replied after chuckling.Arthur might be happy that he had created an opportunity for them to be alone, but he was still vexed. “What is that boy thinking? There’s no guarantee that he’ll be able to remarry.” His vexation grew when he thought about Daisy and how Yuna would leave the country at any moment.“No obstacle could stand in their way if they’re truly fated to be, so
“It’s fine,” Yvan replied indifferently.Yuna scoffed but couldn’t be bothered to argue with him. After all, she hadn’t made it specifically for him, and if it weren’t for Grandpa Jenkins, she wouldn’t have even offered him a single bite. She stood up and packed the remaining gnocchi. The man observed her with a raised eyebrow and a slight smile, but it was fleeting.They returned once more to the hospital and were about to enter the elevator when they heard Daisy’s voice. “Yvan?”Yuna stood beside him, clutching the container of gnocchi. The good-looking pair looked like a married couple who had come to visit someone at the hospital.Daisy was intensely irked by the sight of this. Seeing red, she walked up to Yvan. “Didn’t you say you were taking care of something, Yvan? Why are you with Yuna?”Upon seeing her hurt expression, Yuna raised the container in her hand and said gently, “Please don’t misunderstand, Ms. Bailey. Grandpa Jenkins suddenly wanted to eat my cooking, so Mr. J
“I could smell it from outside, Yuna. I didn’t think you were such a good cook. No wonder Grandpa Jenkins missed your cooking. Yvan and I can rest easy now that you’re here to resolve his eating issue.” Daisy praised the moment she walked in. It was clear that she was implying Yuna was just a cook.“What do you take Yuna for? A hired chef?” Arthur’s tone was cold.“Don’t get me wrong, Grandpa Jenkins, that wasn’t what I meant,” Daisy hurriedly explained.“Good, because if we were to talk about rank, Yuna is more important to me than you,” Arthur retorted arrogantly.Yuna was stunned as she didn’t expect Grandpa Jenkins to defend her, whereas Daisy had paled upon hearing his words.“Grandpa,” Yvan started to say to save Daisy from embarrassment.However, Arthur wasn’t going to give him the chance. “Don’t interrupt my meal.”Yvan had no choice but to relent, seeing as his grandfather had a good appetite. Daisy could only bite her tongue and glare hatefully at Yuna.The calm Yuna,
Yuna merely smiled at Daisy's calling dibs on Yvan. She raised a brow and said, "Hmm, then you must properly cherish your man, Ms. Bailey. Don't let him go that easily."Upon that, the doors to the elevator opened, and Yuna strode away, clicking her heels.Daisy wrestled with the impulse to follow her, but with determination etched on her face, she begrudgingly decided to head back. Half an hour later, Yuna returned home. Nathaniel was playing with his favorite tablet on the sofa while Natalie was playing house with Sherry in the play area.Nathaniel looked up. "Mommy, you're back."Natalie placed her toys down and ran over. "Mommy."Yuna sat down on the sofa, hugging Natalie while checking up on Nathaniel. Nathaniel looked apologetic. He said, "Mommy, I'm sorry. Please don't blame Aunty Sherry. I was the one who wanted to try it out. I only took a small bite before she realized and quickly fed me allergy meds. I'm fine now.""There is no next time. This is Aunty Sherry's first
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
