Yaacob drank the soup very slowly, savoring each sip as if it was priceless nectar hard to come by.

Celica saw how much he was enjoying it, and she could feel her mouth watering. She looked at Yaacob and asked, "Uncle Yaacob, does it taste good?"

"Yes, indeed! Mommy's cooking had improved greatly compared to three years ago," replied Yaacob.

"I want some too…" Celica hugged Yaacob's arm with her chubby hands and pouted expectantly.

However, Yaacob rejected her request and said, "It's already cooled down too much."

He took more than half an hour to drink the soup. It would have been cold after all this while.

Nancy took a look at the time and went to carry Celica from Yaacob's lap.

She said, "Time for Celica to go to bed, I'll bring her home now. You can finish the soup slowly and I'll collect the thermos another time."

"Wait." Yaacob stopped her before she left. He knew that she was just saying that in passing. She would likely never want to drop by again if he let her leave ju

    Nancy managed to persuade Yaacob to go to the hospital.Yaacob decided to head home en route to the hospital to get the gift for Celica. After all, one had to keep the promise made to his child.When they reached the hospital, Nancy brought Celica to Benson's ward and accompanied Yaacob to have his injuries treated.She had no choice but to stick around because Yaacob would refuse treatment if she were not around.At ten, Nancy received a text from Benson telling her that he had put Celica to bed and she did not have to worry about them.Perhaps Benson did not mind Nancy keeping Yaacob company because he felt he was responsible for Yaacob's injuries.As Nancy placed her phone down, she stared at the doctor in a quandary as he dressed up the wounds.The doctor said that the injuries could go either way since Yaacob refused to get proper treatment during the early stage. He thought it would be best if Yaacob could be admitted to the hospital for at least a month.However, Yaacob

    Nancy left Athenapolis during the most turbulent time in the history of Olumphia.During the presidential election, Donald was the first one to succumb to defeat among the three candidates. Benjamin and Harrison were neck and neck in their campaigns.In the power struggle, Harrison and Yaacob were in the same camp, while Xander was affiliated with Benjamin.Yaacob wanted to spare Nancy from the gruesome details of what happened during that time. After all, she was Benjamin's daughter, and she had been hurt and betrayed by Benjamin numerous times, so he did not want to drag her through the mud again.Benjamin held Anna hostage to get Xander to do his bidding, and he was always the first in line to take any blows coming Benjamin's way. Benjamin even went as far as forcing Xander's company to outgrow their capacity in order to compete with Getson Corporation."Benjamin used Xander's company to conduct fraudulent dealings, and in the end, Xander was forced into bankruptcy. Then, he lo

    "Yaacob handed over more than a third of the Getson Corporation's shares to Dorothy. Considering their current value, how much would that amount to?" continued Yvonne.Yvonne was just a celebrity. She could not fathom the exact amount, nor did she want to know."So, now do you know why he's been in frequent contact with Keating recently? Now that Yaacob is no longer the major shareholder, he's unable to be the one calling the shots. What he did was equivalent to handing a knife to his opponent so they could take a stab at him any time they pleased. If the Keatings and Brownings form an allegiance right now, that would make matters even worse as they would be in a position to overtake the Corporation. So I think Yaacob is making a concession by re-establishing his ties with President Keating." Since when did Yaacob ever make a concession? That meant he had given away all that he had accomplished in the past three years!The Yaacob Nancy had known was very intelligent, calculative, an

    At the noisy nightclub, Lynn, with a full face of heavy makeup, was drinking with a group of classmates."Lynn, you said you're getting married soon. Is it for real this time? Still with the same old Mr. Getson?" asked one of her friends."I wouldn't tell you if I'm not sure about it, now would I? Yaacob wants to get back together with me and we went on a date just yesterday. He told me after he had enough of a certain promiscuous slut and he felt that I'm the best!" blabbered Lynn."Slut… Are you referring to Nancy Lawson? I thought you used to love her songs when we were in high school."“Well, I didn't know her true color back then. Besides, I was too young and naive to know better, so I was deceived by her. She thought she could do the same to everyone with her good looks. Do you think she was pretty, perfect, and could twist just about any man around her finger? That's not the case at all!" Lynn continued as she downed her cocktail.Then, she crooked her finger to beckon her

    Nancy might be older than Lynn by a few years, but she was far from being considered as old.Ironically, just moments after the taunting died down, about five guys came over to talk to Nancy and asked for her phone number.Lynn and her entourage had been sitting around for hours, and not a single guy had approached them.It was obvious that the most beautiful person would always be the center of attention in any club."Shit, you bitch! Your husband doesn't care about you, huh? If not, he wouldn't have let you come to the club dressed like a slut." Lynn glanced at Nancy disdainfully.Nancy looked down at her outfit and felt nothing was out of place. It was a rather chilly day, so she wore a long overcoat. She removed her coat only after she had entered the club, revealing a V-neck cashmere dress.Nancy sincerely felt that was nothing out of the ordinary. She was amused by the irony; Lynn wanted to build herself up as being young and trendy while criticizing her from a moral standp

  • Love Conquers All    Chapter 441 Let's Start with Mr. Getson

    Lynn and her friends started telling Yaacob what a big bully Nancy was to Lynn as soon as he sat down. Of course, they added a little extra spice to the story, conveniently leaving out how Lynn bullied Celica.Yaacob leaned back on the sofa as he listened. The dim neon light shone down the side of his face, making it hard to read his expression.Lynn also leaned back on the sofa. She said as she laid her head on Yaacob's chest. "Mr. Getson, my father has given his word that he will let go of what happened three years ago. I swear I didn't do anything to Nancy. She was the one who started it. You have to help me."Obviously, the flirtatious Lynn wanted attention from Yaacob, but Yaacob was cornered after Lynn mentioned her father.Even Nancy caught the implicit warning in Lynn's words. All Nancy wanted was justice for Celica.Lynn refused to apologize to Celica. Since Nancy had a go with Lynn, she could not be bothered to wait for Yaacob to make his decision. She was ready to go.

    Nancy was still uneasy after she got home.She was thinking about what Yvonne had told her the other day about Yaacob's situation. She was worried that something worse might happen to Yaacob if Lynn told her father about him, even though he assured her he would never let anyone tell him what to do.Nancy was so worried that she decided to call Yvonne."Hey Yvonne, what do you think will happen to Yaacob if the Brownings and Harrison Keating work together?" asked Nancy."I'm not really sure. I've only heard bits and pieces of the news and told you everything I know. Nancy, you should just stay with Benson and not get involved in what is going on between Mr. Getson and the President. We are just their pawns and would never be part of their world. If you got involved, you would only get hurt."Nancy sensed from Yvonne's tone that something was wrong. She asked, "Are you all right?"Yvonne broke down as Nancy asked the question. She began to sob. "Nancy, I am the pawn.""What?""Re

    Nancy walked out of the bar after Yvonne left.Yaacob was out in his car the whole time. He followed Nancy as she came out and honked at her.Nancy heard it and turned to look at Yaacob.Just then, a taxi stopped in front of Nancy. Benson got out of the car with Celica in his arms. They had come to pick Nancy up.Nancy took Celica in her arms and turned again to look at Yaacob.Yaacob felt that Nancy wanted to talk to him. He became so nervous that his heart practically skipped a bit. However, before Nancy could take another step, her phone rang.She returned Celica to Benson and took her phone out of her bag.Yaacob had no idea who was on the other end or what was said, but he could see that Nancy was getting anxious, and her eyebrows furrowed as she listened intently.Nancy moved into a corner for the rest of the call. Even Benson was curious. Benson stayed where he was with Celica. He turned and realized Yaacob had been behind him all the time. He gave a friendly wave to Yaa

"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?

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.

    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

    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

    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

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.
