Love Conquers All Chapter 128 Why Didn't You Come?
Nancy could not help but feel hurt by what he said."Why do I have to pick you up at the airport just because you asked me to? It's not like you're going to die if I don't. You're a grown man for christ sake!"Her eyes turned red even before Yaacob said anything.Yaacob reached out his hand to stroke her cheeks gently, but Nancy turned away before he could touch them."What's the matter? Did I say something wrong? Tell me, what have I done to make you angry," he asked."I don't know! You should know!""How would I know if you yourself don't even know?"A woman would never tell a man why they were angry. They never want to explain why they were angry. Instead, they want men to just admit their own mistakes and apologize.However, Yaacob was unwilling to do that. This made Nancy angrier, so she tried to break free from him even more.Seeing this, Yaacob held her even tighter. He then leaned down and kissed her hard on the lips."Mpmh!"Nancy was not in the mood to be intimate
Love Conquers All Chapter 129 The Love of My Life
"Because something really urgent came up on the island. After making sure you were alright, I took the last flight back. I know it was wrong for me to do that. I should've comforted you then. So I don't blame you for being angry at me," said Yaacob.Yaacob was really cunning. First, he made Nancy believe he did not care about her at all before letting her know he actually did come back that day.That way, Nancy would not blame him for not comforting her because it was more important for her to know that he had come back to rescue her.In fact, not only did Nancy not blame him, but she was actually touched by his gesture. She pressed the boarding pass to her chest as though it was the most precious thing in the world to her.Seeing that she had finally stopped crying, Yaacob moved on to the next step of his plan."Now do you want to see the gifts I bought for you?" he asked.Nancy's eyes immediately lit up when she saw the luggage full of branded handbags. The ten handbags cost mi
Love Conquers All Chapter 130 Second Place
Nancy followed Yaacob to the infirmary. Once there, she stood at the doorway while he relayed Lola's condition to the doctor.Yaacob's expression was so glum and, to be honest, a little worried.'And I thought he's here to spend more time with me. Looks like he cares more about the other students than me,' thought Nancy with a sarcastic smirk.She decided to ask the doctor for more information."Did the girl who was brought in just now really passed out from a heat stroke?""Yes, that's right. But her condition isn't serious. In fact, she has already woken up and she'll be as good as new after getting some rest," replied the doctor with a nod.However, the doctor's answer failed to convince Nancy that Lola was not putting up an act.'It can't be a coincidence that she passed out from a heat stroke right in front of Yaacob,' she thought.Yaacob was talking to Lola, who was lying on the infirmary bed when Nancy went in.Nancy guessed that he was probably telling Lola to rest wel
Love Conquers All Chapter 131 No to Divorce
Spencer looked at Nancy for a while, as if mentally preparing himself, before finally saying, "Teresa and I lost the baby.""Was it because of that night...""No! It has nothing to do with you. Teresa had an abortion because she said she didn't want the baby anymore," interrupted Spencer.Nancy secretly sighed with relief. It was a good thing she was off the hook for this matter.However, she thought it was mean of her to celebrate when she saw how down Spencer looked, so she pretended to comfort him, "You and Teresa are still young, so I'm sure she'll get pregnant again when she's ready."Spencer just shook his head. "Do you know what her reason for not wanting the baby is? It's not because she thinks she's too young or because she feels we aren't ready to raise a kid of our own yet. It is because she thinks having a baby will affect her acting career, and that's why she murdered our baby without even discussing it with me first!"This was especially hard on Spencer because he w
Love Conquers All Chapter 132 Does It Hurt?
Nancy drank one glass of whisky after another on Yaacob's behalf, and this earned her the respect of the other guests."This girl sure can hold her alcohol!" said one of them.The door opened again after Yaacob and Nancy took their seats.When Nancy first came in, she immediately noticed there was one more empty seat on the table. Meaning to say the big shot Yaacob wanted her to meet had not arrived yet.After the door opened, two bodyguards dressed in black suits came in, scanned the room, and stepped back out again.Only then did the big shot come in.He was a man who looked to be around his early fifties years old, but he was not balding or fat like the other middle-aged men in the room. Even though his hair was turning white in some places, it only served to make him accentuate his majestic and distinguished aura; if his chiseled and lined face could tell stories, it would have told of all the bold and daring feats he had pulled off in his youth.'I'll be happy if Yaacob cou
Love Conquers All Chapter 133 Especially Handsome Today
Yaacob had already changed into a clean set of clothes by the time he came out of the hospital. The black shirt and dark plaid trousers made him look taller than usual.Gone was the gentle and humble expression he reserved for the injured construction workers. He had returned to his confident and domineering self.Nancy was super impressed by how he could mold his personality to fit the situation at hand, not to mention the little speech he gave to the injured construction workers and their families.She saw with her own eyes how he managed to win over their respect. The one-arm man even helped wipe the minestrone soup from Yaacob's leather shoes in the end.After they got into his car, he asked, "So I'll drop you off at the campus first?""Yeah, that'd be great. Thanks," said Nancy absent-mindedly. She was still thinking back to how Yaacob handled the one-arm man moments before. "Mr. Getson, those… those workers… How did they die?" she finally stammered out.Yaacob glanced sidew

However, Nancy was already long gone by the time Julian arrived. Nonetheless, he was able to get a glimpse of a small shoe print through the cracks between the rocks.Nancy ran back the way she came until she was safely back in her own room. She slammed her bedroom door and patted herself on the chest to calm her wildly beating heart."Have you been up to no good?" asked Yaacob."Mr. Getson! You've got to see this," said Nancy hurriedly. She played the recording for him while explaining, "I got inside information that the compensation meant for the deceased workers' families have all been embezzled by the man speaking in the recording. Can you tell who it is? I know I've seen him before. I can definitely point him out if I see him the next time.""His name is Kevin Shaw, Charlene's younger brother. That makes him Julian's uncle," said Yaacob."Wow, you could recognize who he is by his voice alone?""Yeah. He got into Getson Corporation because of Charlene twenty years ago. But be
Love Conquers All Chapter 135 Yaacob, I Love You
Yaacob said there would be good news if his father asked for him.Kevin could no longer keep his place in the Getson Corporation because of what had happened. Yaacob was appointed to take over his position.Not only did Yaacob resolve the incident at the Lotus Village, but the workers who went on strike trusted only him. In addition, Yaacob was the one who managed to get the ban lifted from the authority, and the project was allowed to resume.Moreover, he did a great job with the projects on the island. With such a stunning performance on his job, no one could oppose his promotion. It only dawned on Nancy now that Yaacob purposely went into exile on that island to prepare for today. She knew it from the beginning. How could someone as cautious as Yaacob be careless in contractual matters and allow Julian to use that against him?In short, it was a triumphant victory for Yaacob. Julian and Charlene must have gone crazy with anger. Nancy was delighted, too. Even if she was not Yaaco

Yaacob stayed in Nancy and Celica's house in Rhea City for a month without leaving.After sending Celica to kindergarten, Yaacob sent Nancy to the company.Nancy always asked him to stop the car two streets away from the company, but that day, Yaacob went a bit further, and she started to get anxious. "Stop the car, quick. Stop going forward. It's the peak hour right now. I can't let anyone see me."Yaacob stopped the car, but he did not unlock the door.He lowered the top of the convertible and asked her, "Is being with me that embarrassing to you?""I'm not with you. This is just a transaction!" Nancy insisted.She could not open the door and noticed that Yaacob had locked it. When she went to unlock it, her hand was pushed down by the man."Don't I make you happy? Is Celica unhappy? Don't you enjoy every night that we're together? You clearly have me in your heart, but why do you keep denying it? Nancy, what happened to your boldness and carefree spirit? Who do you want to im
Love Conquers All Chapter 454 Pushing the Envelope
Nancy had just stopped at Athenapolis to pick up some things she had left with Benson's friends when they had stayed there.She had also wanted to congratulate Rowena and Randall on their marriage and to apologize for not being able to attend their wedding.However, the next day, she could not get up at all.Fearing another intense night like the one before, she decided to book a flight to Rhea City that afternoon.The moment she sat on the plane, Nancy almost collapsed in her seat. Her lower back was aching.When she shut her eyes, her head was inexplicably flooded with certain images.It was like she was under a spell!"Ms., the flight is about to take off. Please switch off your phones," the flight attendant told Nancy.Nancy remembered that she had already turned off her phone.However, she turned around to see Celica looking at her phone unhappily."Sorry."Nancy switched off Celica's phone, but she did not seem happy about it. "Mommy… will Uncle Yaacob call me?""Even
Love Conquers All Chapter 453 Can't Start Anew
After half a year, Nancy finally returned from America with Celica.Celica held Nancy's hand in one hand and a cat plushie that was almost half her size in another.As soon as they walked out of the VIP channel, Celica's sharp eyes immediately spotted the man who had come to pick them up. She abandoned her plushie as she rushed to him, hands outstretched and waiting to be carried."Uncle Yaacob! Uncle Yaacob!""Celica, don't run so fast!"Nancy could not stop her and could only follow behind, picking up the plushie along with some candy that had dropped from her pocket as she ran.Yaacob hurried forward and immediately scooped Celica up. He smelled the sweet scent of candy."Uncle Yaacob…"Celica hugged Yaacob, nuzzling her head against his. The fine and soft hair that was unique to a child warmed Yaacob's heart.It had been two years, but she had not forgotten him!It seemed like her memory was better than expected. She had probably gotten it from him.Of course, it was als
Love Conquers All Chapter 452 Twists in Marriage
Randall and Rowena went to the same motel they had the last time.The boss remembered them as the ones who had broken his window, but he did not give them a hard time, warmly welcoming them instead.After all, the money that Randall had given him for it had been enough to replace the windows of the whole building. This time, Randall flexed his financial might again. He pulled out a wad of cash from his wallet and put it on the counter. "Boss, we want an entire floor.""Sir, do you want one room or two?""The whole floor!"Hearing what Randall said, Rowena looked at him in amazement. "Why so many rooms?""Have you forgotten how bad the soundproofing is here?" Randall replied.Rowena was speechless.The hotel owner was a veteran of this. He immediately put the money into the counter drawer and said, "Okay, I'll give you a key to a room on the third floor. I'll go knock on every door to clear the floor out right now. I assure you that you'll have an enjoyable night!"Rowena fel

"How absurd!"Randall's words were not meant to demean her. He just felt that it was too dangerous for the child to be there.Rowena, however, felt like she was being blamed for no reason."Why are you in a restaurant with this girl in the middle of the night?" Rowena asked Randall.Randall did not answer. He walked forward to help secure Dorothy before he took the dangerous weapon off her hands."Rowena, you should bring Sandy back for now."Rowena did not move."It's too dangerous for the both of you to be here. Listen to me!" Randall told her.Rowena did not respond. Instead, it was Dorothy who spoke: "Mr. Smith, why do you think she can just come and go as she pleases? I already told my subordinates that not even a fly is allowed out."Even though Rowena had been captured, she knew that they would not be able to walk free if anything happened to her so the man would not touch her so easily."Mrs. Browning, you just wanted to talk with me."Dorothy really liked talking to
Love Conquers All Chapter 450 I Came For You!
Dorothy and Randall found themselves in a standoff. Suddenly, a hushed report from her subordinate reached Dorothy's ears. "Someone's outside, claiming to have information on Mr. Randall.""Who? Could it be that Yaacob has returned earlier than expected?" Dorothy, determined to prevail over Randall that night, insisted, "Don't let him in; I can't believe he would just barge in!""It's not Mr. Randall. It's a woman, accompanied by a child." The subordinate hesitated before providing more details.Rowena, who had given birth just four months ago, had swiftly regained her pre-pregnancy figure. She wore a navy blue striped shirt knotted at the waist, paired with snug jeans, showing no signs of her previous pregnancy. From behind, she looked slender and youthful, resembling a young girl. Yet, in front, she cradled a baby.The infant, only three or four months old, sported a hat with a few wisps of hair peeking out and a pacifier. The child's intelligent eyes darted around, exploring the

Love Conquers All Chapter 447 I Can't Help You
Having finally brought Rowena home, Randall became an aspiring intern dad. Opting against hiring a nanny, he naturally assumed the responsibility of caring for his pregnant wife.He would juggle the demands of running the company and handling household matters. Randall appeared fatigued, yet those with keen observation could discern a tired but content expression on his face. Lately, a newfound joy, previously unseen, frequently illuminated his features—the anticipation of becoming a father.During a visit to the hospital, a woman seated beside Rowena observed her pregnant belly and initiated a conversation, "Your belly is quite prominent. When are you due?""In about a month," Rowena replied."That's wonderful! Congratulations! I saw you during one of my check-ups. Is the man accompanying you each time your husband?" Others looked on with envy, expressing, "My husband isn't as involved. No matter how many times I ask, he never joins me for the appointment."Rowena remained silent
