“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
As Yuna returned to the research lab, she immediately immersed herself in her work, determined and focused. Donovan, harboring resentment, saw this as a golden chance and decided to approach her."Yuna, Mr. Jenkins came to look for you again today. It's too bad you're not here. He was furious as he felt that you were neglecting your duties. Why are you still in a good mood sitting here working?" Donovan mocked. "Although we're work partners, Mr. Jenkins is the one paying us. If he isn't happy with us, will he still support our research?"Rose said curtly, "Deputy Fang, you're exaggerating. Mr. Jenkins doesn't think that way.""You're just an assistant. How dare you talk to me in this way? Do you believe that I can kick you out of this team?"Yuna stood up and approached Donovan, blocking his view from Rose. She said coldly, "If you can kick her out, does that mean I can do the same to you too?"Donovan was a little taken aback, not expecting Yuna to say such a thing to him."Yuna
Yuna opened the door and looked at Donovan, who subconsciously straightened up in response. She said, "If you're so unhappy with me, you can tell it to my face. Going behind my back is pointless."Donovan instantly felt his mouth turn dry and dared not even look at Yuna.Mayson, who was sitting down, glared at Donovan secretly, blaming him for being a blabbermouth. He got up and walked over to Yuna, smiling. "Yuna, Donovan doesn't have a filter. I'll lecture him about this later. You guys are still a team after all, right?""Mr. Mills, I'm here to officially let you know, starting right now, Donovan Fang is no longer part of my team," Yuna said.Donovan glared in humiliation and rage. "Yuna, what the hell do you mean by this? What right do you have to kick me out?"Yuna raised a brow and said gently, "Based on the fact that I've signed a contract with Mr. Jenkins. Based on the fact that I'm the team leader and also based on the fact that I was invited to West Drew. Which one do yo
Within ten minutes, David Kirk arrived.He pushed open the door and saw that Yuna was there too. He sensed that something was off. The very next second, Donovan had already gone up to him and complained about her, "David, you have to help me. She lords me around and wants to kick me off the team. She isn't listening to Mr. Mills too!"David furrowed his brows and looked at Mayson."David, she doesn't even care who you are. She's extremely arrogant." Donovan added fuel to the fire.David merely barked in a low voice. "Stand aside."Donovan was afraid of his brother-in-law, so he obediently stepped aside.David did not even look at Yuna. He asked Mayson, "Mr. Mills, what did Donovan do to be kicked out of the team?""Mr. Kirk, about this–""Mr. Kirk, why don't you ask me about it." Yuna remained seated. "I don't allow gossip spreading in my team. Donovan has repeatedly violated the rules more than once. I've already looked the other way the last time. Today, he even complained to
Yuna calmly finished watching the entire video. Ever since the incident, she had never contacted Leister or the Feron family. Her intention was so that they could be tormented internally. The news she had received then was the icing on the cake.Harry sent another message. "Twilight is owned by Gabriel Fisher."She muttered the name to herself, "Gabriel Fisher?"Yuna knew Yvan had two close friends. They were Gabriel Fisher and Lucian Storm.It was such a coincidence."I'll handle it."Yuna continued working diligently until 10 pm when her phone rang, and Cedric informed her that he was on his way to pick her up. He explained that Lucy and the rest of the group hadn't left yet, so they had decided to rendezvous at a club.Cedric looked at Yuna in the passenger seat. He asked concernedly, "Why are you putting in so many more hours? Are you in a rush?""I just want to finish this project as quickly as possible."Cedric furrowed his brows and asked, "Is Yvan bullying you?""Cedr
A server pushed a cart and entered. He politely smiled and said, "Do I have a Ms. Feron here?"All four of them were stunned.Yuna asked, "That's me. What is it?"The server placed an expensive bottle of wine carefully on the coffee table. "The owner sends his regards. This room is on the house too. I hope you and your friends have a wonderful time, Ms. Feron."She thought to herself, "From Gabriel?"Yuna was stunned. She had only arrived for a couple of minutes, and Gabriel had already ordered a server to send her wine.Cedric furrowed his brows and asked, "Who is your boss? We don't take things for free. You can take it back."The server was conflicted when he heard what Cedric said. Yuna picked up the bottle of wine and told them, "I know the owner. I'll go and say hello. You guys go ahead.""Surra," Cedric called her out with a low voice.Yuna replied honestly, "Cedric, I'll be back soon." Then, she left. The server never thought that this would happen. He panicked for a f
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
