"Are you trying to scare me?" Yuna shrugged as if she couldn't care less. "If you don't believe me, you can see it for yourself," she said.Then, she added, Oh right, you probably had to discuss the projects with Carl a lot. So, did you have a chance to talk about any personal matters during those times? Probably not." Yuna's assumption was spot on. Elizabeth widened her eyes in shock as she gritted her teeth. She hated how smug Yuna seemed now. "Don't you dare think that you know Carl best!" "If what I said was wrong, why are you panicking now?" "Don't be so proud of yourself." Yuna kept a smile on her face. "You always seem to misunderstand my kindness. I only speak the truth." "Hmph." Elizabeth stopped talking. She didn't want to hear anything upsetting from Yuna again. So what if Yuna knew Carl well? Elizabeth would certainly be the winner in the end! Smiling, Yuna watched as Elizabeth drove away. At the same time, Gianna got out of the car. "What's the deal wi
When Yuna was about to say something, Nathaniel cut in. "Mommy, don't worry. We know what we should and shouldn't do. Are you worried that we'll create trouble for you?" "That's not what I meant." "We know what you meant." Natalie rubbed her tummy. "Mommy, I really want to have seafood pasta tonight. I've asked Aunty Reina to get the ingredients. Can you make that for us?" After being cut off, Yuna nodded. "I will cook it for you two now." She then got up and headed to the kitchen. Right then, Aunty Reina had already washed all the ingredients for the food. Yuna started to make the pasta. Natalie immediately went to sit beside Nathaniel. "Nathaniel, are you going to do something to the Wycliffe family again?" "How did you know that?" "Hehe, I obviously understand you the most." "Stay here and keep a lookout for me. I'll be heading up now." "Alright." Nathaniel put his book away. He got up and went upstairs quickly. In just ten minutes, Wycliffe Corp was in chaos
Luther glanced in his direction. Without a word, he turned and sat at his desk. Meanwhile, Carlos wheeled out of the office after being inside for a few minutes. Luther wasn't too surprised to see the furious look on his face. Right then, Maxus called him over again. That night, Carl left his company and asked to have a meal with Cedric and Yuna. Not long after his car left, the driver said, "Mr. Edwards, we're being followed." "Tell our men to find out who's tailing us." Carl remained calm. It was as if he had already expected that someone would follow him. After meeting the two at the place they agreed on, Carl dined with them with a composed look. Cedric said, "There's nothing going on in Flokstra anymore. We can only stop our investigation for now. Maybe they'll expose themselves after a while. That way, we can figure out our next step." Yuna frowned. "If that's the case, wouldn't it take longer to save Master Eastin?" "That's how we can ensure Master Eastin's saf
"Carl, can't you tell me the truth?" Elizabeth's eyes reddened, and she stood before him stubbornly. She just wanted Carl to give her an answer. Expressionless, Carl leaned against the chair. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "Where's your proof?" "If I have proof, would I still have to be here and ask you about it?" "Just what kind of work can you do with that low IQ?" "How could you say that to me, Carl?" "If it was really my doing, I would've just made your company go bankrupt instead of doing it little by little," Carl said, looking stern. Elizabeth's heart skipped a beat. She stared at him with disbelief. "Are you done here?" Carl asked. Seeing how firm he was, Elizabeth bit her lips and said, "So this really has nothing to do with you." At the same time, she released a sigh of relief. "It's best that you're not involved in this. Carl, I don't want our families to have any unnecessary conflict or misunderstanding." Carl looked away. He couldn't be bothered to ans
Wycliffe Corp lost 700 million dollars in the blink of an eye. Even worse, they could only leave the matter be. After all, there was nothing they could do about it. Even if Yuna couldn't see the Wycliffe family's current situation, she could imagine how it must be for them. Seven hundred million dollars wasn't a small sum. At the same time, Nathaniel was working on his laptop. Jeremiah was on the line with him. He heard Jeremiah's laughter from his earphones. Frowning in disgust, Nathaniel wanted to take his earphones off. "Stop laughing." "Hahaha. Can't I even laugh?" Jeremiah even slapped his thigh. "The Wycliffe family is so unlucky to have offended you," he said between laughter. "Is 700 million dollars a lot?" Nathaniel asked."No, it's probably just a small part of their family fortune. Honestly, it would be fine even if you steal billions or tens of billions of dollars from them. Clearing his throat, Jeremiah added, "You should've told me about it. As your br
In Jefton State, Ashton didn't stop what he was doing to Yvan just because of Darren's words. He even went to greater lengths. Meanwhile, Yvan didn't lose his cool under Ashton's attacks. Instead, he let Ashton do what he wanted for a few days. Then, he came up with a powerful counterattack in one go. As expected, Ashton was caught off guard by Yvan's counterattack and couldn't recover. At that moment, Yvan was sitting in his office. He was watching the data on his computer calmly. It showed the falling stocks of Ashton's company. Taking a drag from his smoke, he looked away slowly. At the same time, Michael entered his office. "Mr. Jenkins, the Yale Group has lost nearly 300 million dollars now. If this continues, they'll lose at least another 500 million dollars." "Good." "What time should we end this?" "One o'clock." "Yes, sir." …When Darren heard that the Yale Group's stocks were falling, he instantly knew it was Yvan's doing. He went to see Ashton right away.
"Yuna, do you need anything?" "What's with the matter between Ashton and Yvan?" Yuna asked. "Oh, that's what you're concerned about," Vince said with realization. "I don't exactly know what's going on. But I heard that Mr. Yale started creating troubles for Mr. Jenkins first. That's why Mr. Jenkins gave him a lesson. "For now, Mr. Yale doesn't seem to want to stop. So Mr. Jenkins isn't letting him off. I don't know when this will end." It made Yuna frown a little. "So it's still Mr. Yale who's trying to bother Yvan?" "Yeah, it's him." Curious, Vince asked, "Yuna, are you planning to get involved?" "I have no right to do so." "I think it's better for you not to get involved. The situation between Mr. Yale and Mr. Jenkins is a bit troublesome," Vince said. Then, he added, "If you interfere now, wouldn't you have to be in contact with Mr. Yale?" It was true that Yuna didn't want to contact Ahston. But she was worried that this matter only happened because of her. The
When Yvan stopped his attack, Ashton got the news as well. He felt suspicious. He didn't know why Yvan would stop his attack out of nowhere. Looking at how the company stocks weren't falling anymore, he seemed confused. "Figure out why Yvan stopped," he ordered his assistant.After his assistant left, he continued to observe the company stocks. Yvan's sudden halt made Ashton anxious. His intended plan was put to a stop. Then, he wouldn't be able to get what he wanted. …Yuna was updated about the situation. Then, she lay down to sleep. For a long while, she couldn't fall asleep at all. In the end, she had to take a sleeping pill to make herself sleepy. When the sky turned bright, she got up and checked her phone. It was bombarded with notifications. Some were from Vince, the group chat, and even from Kiara. Even Cora, who hadn't contacted her since a while ago, reached out to her. Yuna felt that something was off. After checking all the messages, she first called Cora
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
