"You really are undeniably detestable. I wonder what those other men see in you."Yuna gave a light laugh at that. "Of course they're attracted to my beauty. Aren't you also attracted to me because of that?" She then leaned in and whispered into his ear, "Or perhaps, you're just attracted to me in general.""Fuck off." Yvan was furious and he practically spat that out before he turned and went into his study. Yuna watched him leave indifferently. She took a deep breath before leaving as well.When she returned to her apartment, she saw that Harry was sleeping on her couch, but he immediately jolted awake when she switched on the lights. When he realized that it was her, he asked, "Yuna, why are you home so late today?""There were some problems in research development today and I completely lost track of time," she explained before asking, "How are Natalie and Nathaniel?" Harry got up from the sofa and said, "Sherry is watching them. Have you eaten? Do you want me to make you s
Yuna heard all about what happened at TN Group once she arrived at the research center.Mayson asked to see her at his office and once she arrived, he didn't beat around the bush and asked, "Yuna, are you aware that TN Group is facing some problems right now?"What exactly happened?""A while ago, a few five-star hotels under TN Group lost tens of millions of dollars, and this morning, they lost around three hundred million dollars in stocks. Right now, the entirety of TN Group is in chaos."Yuna considered this for a while before asking calmly, "Did they find the culprit?"Mayson made a brisk laugh. "Honestly, I don't think they know who the culprit even is.""Why are you telling me this?" Yuna asked."Nothing seems to be going right for TN Group these days and though the Jenkins family is one of the wealthiest families in Jefton State, if they run out of funds, then…" Mayson gave a conspicuous cough before continuing, "What I want to say is, take note to not keep going against
Yuna mildly side-eyed Blake and continued walking toward Herbert to take a seat opposite of him. "I'm here now. What did you want to say to me?"Herbert was furious at her nonchalant attitude. "The whole company knows that you are in possession of thirty percent of the company's shares but until now, you still haven't shown up at the company. How do you expect me to explain this to the other shareholders?" he admonished angrily.Blake coldly scoffed in agreement. "What's the point of taking so much of the company's shares if you don't even know anything? What a joke."As he talked, he made his way toward Herbert and Yuna and he slammed his fist aggressively on Herbert's desk. "What is the point of taking all those shares?" he questioned her.Yuna was unphased. "Oh, so the reason why Dad called me here today was for me to surrender the shares?"Herbert's expression was icy as he said, "You don't know how to handle the shares. Wouldn't it be better for you to surrender the shares to
Blake wanted to stop her from leaving but was stopped by Herbert. "Blake, get back here now!"He reluctantly turned to look at his father and whined petulantly, "Dad, are you really just going to let her go like that? Did you not see how arrogant she was acting just now? The past seven years that she has spent overseas have spoiled her completely."Herbert took a deep breath to calm himself down before raising his head to say gloomily, "Even though she and Yvan are divorced, Yvan is still protecting her whenever she gets in trouble. Think about what happened to Lester. Do you really think that Yvan had no part in that?"Blake swore under his breath at that and Herbert continued, "Of course. I have my ways to take back the shares that she has now, but the most important thing now is your safety."Blake's expression twisted at that. "Lester was beaten half to death, and I didn't really wasn’t doing anything then either. I don't think they’ll come for me," he rationalized hesitantly.
"Mommy, does that mean you’re gonna be finished with the research project earlier than expected?" Natalie asked excitedly.Yuna smiled and nodded. "Of course. Once the project is complete we can all go home together."Natalie almost blurted out that she didn't want to leave, but she caught herself and nodded happily. "Yay! I also miss my classmates, Aunty Reina, and Grandpa Eastin!"She also would miss her Great-Grandpa but, of course, she didn't say that out loud.Nathaniel had promised she would get to see their Great-Grandpa again, but he went back on his promise. She has been silently holding a grudge since.After dinner, Yuna was working in the study room when she received a call from Gabriel."Good evening, Sister-in-law." Yuna could practically hear the smile in his voice as he called her that. She didn't bother correcting him."Calling me at such a late hour? Mr. Fisher, do you have good news for me?""I do! I haven't given Blake Feron a visit yet because of you, Ms. Fe
She couldn't tell where Blake was in the video, but she could tell that he was in a private location. Furthermore, judging by the angle at which the video was taken, it was clear that someone had secretly filmed him.In the video, Blake had restrained a woman on a table and was pouring bottle after bottle of alcohol down her throat. He was laughing like a maniac. The pinned-down woman was visibly struggling to break free, but she was only met with clapping and cheering by the others in the room.It was a heinous act and if it was made public, the Feron family's reputation would be in danger.There was a twinkle in Yuna's eye after the video ended because, compared to the proof she had of what Lester and Blake had done, this was more substantial evidence for taking down the Feron name. Yvan, who was still sitting silently in the corner was watching her expression attentively while she watched the video. Though she was good at not letting her emotions show on her face, he was still
Before Yvan could say anything, Lucian raised a hand and interrupted him. "Yes I know that I'm reminding you about it again, but it's the truth! Even though you two signed a contract, you have to face the reality that Yuna is Surra and that she is the only person who can work with you on that project. Remember what Master Eastin said before?"Yvan looked away coldly instead of answering, so Lucian took the liberty to repeat what Master Eastin had said. "Master said that neither he nor his followers can guarantee that they can do the project, but he said that Surra could. We all know how powerful the Master really is, and we are all also aware of Surra's capabilities. So, you have to get her to be on your side," he reminded Yvan.Yvan side-eyed Lucian suspiciously as he said, "This isn't the first time you're defending her, Lucian."Lucian simply shrugged as he replied, "It's only because you need her right now for your project."Yvan didn't want to keep having that conversation a
Yuna didn't know if Yvan was going to show up, but what she did know was that she needed to escape.However, instead of running away from them, she ran toward the Twilight.She could hear the two men chasing after her and luckily, she was wearing sneakers today, so she could run faster.She cast a glance behind her and saw that she had managed to create quite a distance between her and her pursuers, but when she turned her attention back to the front, she had suddenly barreled into a man's embrace."Fuck them up." Yvan's voice was frosty and dripping with disgust.Yuna felt an odd sense of security when she heard his voice. She was safe in his embrace and she could smell the sweet scent of alcohol on him. It made her dizzy.However, she came back to her senses when she heard the pained cries of the men behind her, so she wriggled out of his arms to look back at them, but before she could do so, Yvan had already dragged her into his car by her arm.Yvan sped away from Twilight wi
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
