Ashton was silent on the other end of the call. He said icily, "Did you meet up with Yuna again?" "Yeah, just now." "Darren!" "Don't be mad. I just asked her something for your sake. Do you know what she told me?" Darren's lips curled into a smile as he rested an arm on the steering wheel. He then said, "Forget it. Let's meet up and talk about it." After setting a place to meet, Darren made a U-turn and went to see Ashton. …Yuna was back at Lakewood Estate. The kids were playing with Sherry in the garden. To be exact, she was playing with Natalie. Nathaniel was sitting on the chair with a sketchbook in his hand. He was drawing the scene of the two playing around vividly. Seeing that, she praised Nathaniel, "Baby, your drawing looks great! Have you gotten even better at drawing now?" Nathaniel said dismissively, "You're too busy to check on my studies, Mommy. It's natural for you to be shocked." Yuna's smile faded a little. She seemed apologetic when she heard that
Yuna's heart softened. She didn't even know what to say anymore. "I'm not upset anymore. I feel so much better having you and Nat at my back," she said. "That's good. We're only happy when you're happy, Mommy." After being encouraged by her son, Yuna's greatest worry went away. She had always been worried that Yvan would steal her children away from her. But because of that, she realized she had forgotten how strong of a bond she shared with her two kids. No matter how rich and powerful Yvan could be, it didn't mean he'd be able to take the kids away from her. The worst that could happen was being pestered by him. With that realization in mind, Yuna's mood became much better. When it was already late at night, the kids went to bed. Yuna repeated everything Nathaniel told her to Sherry. She was biting her straw as she listened. Once Yuna finished, Sherry's eyes lit up. "Nathaniel is one understanding boy. Instead of being cold and indifferent like Yvan, he's warm and und
The next day, when Yvan saw the gifts being returned to his place, he became upset. Anybody around him could feel how gloomy he was. Michael sensed his emotions immediately, but he still tried to explain. "Ms. Feron said that if you don't know what Nathaniel and Natalie like, you shouldn't buy just anything for them. It's a waste of money." His words instantly made Yvan feel utterly defeated. "Get rid of them." After saying that, he exited the house and drove away. But when his car left Lakewood Estate, Yuna's car was coincidentally taking over him. He looked to his left, yet Yuna never looked in his direction. Instead, she lowered her head as if she were reading something. Yvan had the urge to chase after her car, but he stopped himself. Right at that moment, he got a call from Lucian. "Come over. Daisy is refusing to get any injections or take medicine. She even stopped eating." Lucian clearly sounded upset. Yvan's face darkened after hearing that. He hit the gas an
Without Herbert at the company, Yasmine and Blake had been behaving well. They were even working hard. Even when they faced troublesome problems, they wouldn't have any complaints. Yuna had been watching everything. Vince brought coffee into her office and said, "Yuna, do you think they've changed?" "You think that's possible?" Yuna did not believe that they had changed at all. "They've been spoiled at home from the moment they were born, so they couldn't handle even a bit of hardship. Even if they're obedient now, that doesn't mean they'll keep it up," Yuna said.Then, she ordered, "Send a few men to keep a close watch on them. Maybe they're plotting something in secret." "Understood." As expected, Blake didn't create any trouble for the whole morning. But he met up with someone during lunch break. "Are you mad? You're asking me to catch your sister and take nudes of her?" a man hissed as he sat across Blake. Drinking his water, Blake said with disdain, "Isn't this wh
It was a call from Amy. After Yuna answered the call, she heard Amy's panicked voice. "Ms. Feron, something bad happened." "What is it?" Yuna asked with a frown. "I just came back from the Feron house. Cora told me that she hired the best PI to find out who I am, no matter what. She even sent a few men to tail Herbert. What should I do if she actually catches me?" Yuna seemed to grow calmer after hearing that. "She's just going through the motions," Yuna said. "Why would you say that?" Amy asked, confused."If she's really able to find out who you are, she wouldn't have delayed the matter till now without acting upon it," Yuna explained. "But what if she managed to find out?" "Ms. Cadwell, you're her sister. She still doesn't know that you're the woman Dad is with now. Doesn't that mean you'd be able to know what she will do at any time? "It's not hard for you to find out which PI she's going to hire. Wouldn't it be even better if you could pay them a higher price and
Yuna took her seat first after reaching the restaurant. Yasmine also forcefully dragged Blake, who didn't want to come, over to the restaurant."Just come with me. Why do you look so reluctant? Have you forgotten about what I told you just now?" Yasmine scolded Blake angrily. Unwillingly, Blake sat down. He didn't look at Yuna even once. Yuna watched as they acted in front of her without saying anything. Yasmine sat down as well with a smile. She then poured Yuna some wine into her glass. "Yuna, don't mind him. Blake has always had a bad temper. But don't worry, I'll watch over him to make sure he won't cause you any trouble." "It's great that you have such good intentions." Yasmine grinned widely. She even nudged Blake. "Stop making that face." Blake looked as if he had listened to her. He mindlessly lifted his wine glass, but he never looked in Yuna's direction. Yuna was as composed as ever. After having some drinks, Yasmine told Yuna what she learned and understood
Soon, Blake got a message from his friend. It was a picture of Yuna in the car. He was over the moon. "Yasmine, the plan worked." "Really?" Yasmine was relieved now. Not long after, the friend called him. "Blake, you and your sister better be here as well just to be safe. If Yuna's men couldn't find her later, we could pretend we were all just having a meal together. Then we wouldn't be suspected." "Is it necessary to go through all this trouble?" "Trouble? Do you think I don't know how many bodyguards Yuna has? We're just lucky today. If you want us to be able to take the pictures nicely, come over," the friend said. "Alright, alright," Blake agreed quickly. After all, he also wanted to see Yuna getting her well-deserved punishment as soon as possible. Upon hanging up, Blake explained the situation to Yasmine briefly. Yasmine said, "Your friend's right about that. It's not too big of a deal for us to go over, just to be safe. When her bodyguards enter and only see us
Disgusted, Yuna shook off Yasmine's hand. "Honestly, I did give you a chance. But you still chose to work with Blake and plot against me. You even wanted to forcefully take nudes of me and blackmail me, didn't you?" Yasmine slumped onto the floor hopelessly. "Would you like to have a taste of that?" "What, what did you say?" Yasmine widened her eyes. Her face was as white as chalk now. She couldn't even speak properly. She stuttered, "I'm, I'll be married into the Chandler family soon. If you do that to me, aren't you worried it'll worsen our family's relationship with the Chandlers? Do you want to embarrass Dad?" "What a good reminder." Yuna stared at her darkly. "The Chandler family wants you and Joe to get married quickly. "But isn't that because Joe is practically a cripple now, so they're afraid you'll cancel the engagement? Do you think Dad might value me even more if I help him marry you into the Chandler family sooner?" At that moment, Yasmine's mind went blank.
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
