The three people reached the private room in the restaurant and sat down. The waiters served the dishes after just a short period of time. It was unknown whether it was intentional or not but when Zachary was having a moment with Lily, he would take some food for Yvonne. He said nonchalantly, “Assistant Yates, you like this dish, don’t you?”

When Yvonne heard Zachary’s words, she could feel the chilliness in the air. She laughed blankly and said, “President Quimby, you’ve remembered wrongly. I don’t like this dish. This is Miss Sweety’s favorite...”

After saying that, she closed her mouth as if she had said something wrong. Lily’s face immediately turned sour.

This meal could not be eaten happily anymore. At least, that was what Yvonne thought.

She did not dare to stay in the private room anymore, so she used the excuse of having to go to the washroom. Zachary followed her out and stopped her in the corridor. “How is it? Are you pleased being the third wheel?”

    Yvonne did not return to the restaurant and immediately left. In the car, she called Zachary and told him she had family matters to attend to.Zachary gritted his teeth and said, “Yvonne, I’ll deduct half of your salary this month!”Lily was happy upon hearing this. At least, his personal assistant was still somewhat sensible. Without a third wheel, it was much more casual now. She leaned toward Zachary and asked, “Darling, where are we going next?”Zachary smiled warmly. “I’ll send you back to the hotel.”This meant he had other business to attend to. Lily was disappointed. Had she overdone it?When she left after staying for a day last time, she thought Zachary would keep checking up on her non-stop but her expectations only left her disappointed.Zachary had not phoned her during this period of time at all. She thought that things were taking a bad turn, so she called him herself. It was already nighttime, yet he told her in a gentle voice that he was busy.The calls after th

    Due to Yosef’s phone call, Yvonne was excited and no longer had the mood to care about Zachary. Her little baby would be back soon, so she had to prepare. She spun around her room and noticed there was much to be done. She sat down. Her baby was probably used to city life with Yosef. Would he dislike how small and shabby this house was? Yvonne was worried and overjoyed at the same time. She rushed to the airport with Wesley the next day. Seeing his mom, Leo rushed into her arms, looking utterly adorable. Wesley asked happily, “You should be Leo. Let me have a look at you.” Leo poked out of his mother’s embrace and greeted Uncle Wesley. Wesley hugged him and gave him a kiss. Leo was laughing after being poked by his uncle’s beard. “Yosef, thank you!” Yvonne shook Yosef’s hand with gratitude. They had dinner in South City’s best private dining venue, and Yosef was the one treating. Leo went to explore the place after he was full from eating. Wesley opened the door

    The words ‘match-made in heaven’ pierced Jackson with great pain. He walked over without even looking over his shoulder with James running over to help him open the car door. Jackson sat in the car and said with an emotionless face, “When did he come back?”“He came back today,” James replied.“Do you know why he came back?”“I don’t.” “Do I pay you to do nothing?” Jackson sounded angry.James did not reply. He had been working for Jackson all these years and was clear why he was angry. If he were put into the same position himself, he would feel the same. The woman was someone he loved dearly, whereas the man was his love rival. When James turned on the car’s engine, Jackson looked at the entrance again and saw Yvonne bidding farewell to Yosef. This made him relieved.After Yvonne left, Yosef returned to the hotel. Not long after, someone knocked on his door. He opened it to see Zachary standing at his door with his arms on his waist. “Yosef, you lack decency. Why didn’t y

    “What are you basing it on?” Zachary stared at Yosef. “Don’t think I don’t know about your ploy. We have to compete fairly.” “Zachary, you have no right to compete fairly with me.” Yosef did not take him seriously at all, “Will the Quimby family allow you to marry someone who’s already been married before?”“Will the Turner family agree?” Zachary fought back using the same argument. “This thing has nothing to do with you. I’ll deal with it myself.”“I’m different from you. You’re the eldest young master and you carry the hope of the whole Turner family. If you continue to act in a manner that only interests you, the few elderly in the Turner house are sure to be angered to death by you. I’m different. I’m the most useless person in the Quimby family, so no one will bother about me.“I’ll fight them to the end,” Yosef said in a deep tone.“But Yvonne won’t fight with you to the end.” Zachary laughed. “You’re a gentleman, not like me. I’ve always been a villain, and I have my ow

    Seeing Zachary’s wrinkled clothes and the lipstick marks on his neck and face, Yvonne almost laughed aloud. What lovemaking had they done to reach this mess? The time was too short as well. Lily had just rushed into the office a few minutes ago. Unless, Zachary had finished prematurely?Zachary did not care what she was thinking about and dragged Yosef into the office beside. He ordered Yvonne while walking, “Tidy up my office.”Yvonne stood by the door for a moment before opening it. The room looked like it did not need any housekeeping and was as clean as before. Lily was sitting on the sofa with her clothes in a mess. She showed a horrible look when Yvonne entered. Yvonne pretended to take away Zachary’s cup. Lily was bored on her own, so she tidied herself up and left Centurion. In the other office, Yosef was laughing at Zachary. “Zachary, look at yourself!”“What are you laughing at? I controlled myself, can you do the same?” “Control yourself? You looked like you

    Jackson’s mood turned sour as Yosef had returned to the city. James had done an investigation. There was nothing big behind his return this time. This meant that he was here solely because of Yvonne. Jackson’s eyes were dark and serious. He knew clearly about Yosef and Yvonne’s relationship. If Old Madam Turner had not used the matter of inheritance rights to threaten Yvonne, she would not have broken up with Yosef. This was what made him worry. Yvonne chose him not because she loved him, but it was for Yosef’s sake. Even though he and Yvonne were like paint and glue after their marriage, he was sure that Yosef was Yvonne’s deeply repressed pain. He was careful in trying to keep this relationship that had been hard to get alive. However, his cautiousness could not win over Yvonne’s heart. Jackson sighed, and his phone rang. It was Jared. He said that he had bought some fresh seafood and invited him over for a meal. Jackson could reject Fiona but not Jared, so he ac

    The person in the picture looked exactly like Yvonne. He thought there was something wrong with his eyes so he took a closer look. That was right, it was Yvonne! She was dressed casually and looked about 18 or 19 in the photo. Why was Yvonne’s picture inside Jared’s book? When he was about to place the picture back into the book, he saw two words written on the back of it. ‘My love.’ My love? Jared’s love was Yvonne? How could it be? How could Yvonne be Jared’s love? Jared was old enough to be Yvonne's father, but he remembered Jared holding Yvonne’s hand outside of a cafe. Could it be that Jared had become interested in Yvonne? Was that why he gave the city project to Yvonne? This could explain why Jared was using the sports festival as compensation. He felt guilty. Jared was done talking on the phone and continued to talk about the sports festival.Jackson was not interested in this, so he tried to place the book back to its original place. “I’ve heard of the sp

    Yvonne was stunned. What did Jackson mean? Did he know about their relationship already? Even so, did it matter? It was in the past! It was all in the past! “Does it matter to you?” Yvonne’s reply confused Jackson even more. Was she admitting to it? “Don’t you have any respect for yourself? Jared is old enough to be your father!” Hearing this, she finally knew that Jackson had misunderstood. She smiled coldly and said, “Does this have anything to do with you, Mister?” “You…” Jackson’s face was gloomy. Yvonne saw his face that looked as though he was about to hit someone, so she panicked a little but still stood firm against him. Jackson gritted his teeth for a while before finally saying, “Is this the life you always wanted?”“What, I can’t live this way?” Yvonne asked.“Yvonne, I regret having ever met you!” Jackson’s eyes were full of pain. He would rather her end up with Yosef or that spoiled brat Zachary than have anything to do with an old man. “We’ve been str

    Jackson had to run back and forth as he had to take care of Yvonne while checking on Leo’s condition. He was most concerned about his son, although the cord blood had been successfully transplanted into his body but it was not guaranteed that everything would be fine. The doctor informed Jackson that after the cord blood was transplanted into Leo's body, he still needed to pass through the infection barrier, reposition in the body, and the rejection barrier before it could truly be considered as a successful transplant.The rejection stage might be the most difficult to overcome. The rejection reaction may occur at any time such as fever, vomiting, and difficulty in eating, diarrhea, etc. Leo had to receive medical treatment according to his condition, along with his cooperation. Once he was fully recovered, he would be sent to the general ward after 3-4 weeks.Jackson would visit his son every hour. Due to the uncertain factors, he was extremely anxious but he could not show even

    The heart-wrenching scene finally drew to a close. The umbilical cord blood transfusion was successfully completed and Leo’s heart rate returned to normal—everything seemed to have fallen back into place. Jackson could feel the weight of a boulder lifted off his chest.As soon as the doctor walked out of the transplant chamber, Jackson stepped forward and took his hand, showering him with words of gratitude.All this while, Yvonne had been trying her best to stay awake. She was dying to hear of Leo's condition post-operation, but ultimately gave in to the anesthesia and drifted off. She felt utterly drained and all she could hear was a gentle whisper by her ear—it was Jackson. “Yvonne, don’t fret,” he said, “Our child will be just fine. Rest without a worry, my dear; when you wake up, all will be well.”And so she slept. She slept for a long period of time and did not even realize that she was wheeled into the ward. In her deep slumber, she could vaguely hear familiar voices, many o

    Fiona and Pearlie were about to slip away after beating her until she miscarried. However, they did not expect to see the police standing in front of the door, both of them were then arrested and the pregnant lady was also carried out. The two realized in shock that the lady was not Yvonne, but a random stranger. “What’s happening?” Fiona pointed at the pregnant lady as she asked Donavan in a hysterical scream. “What do you mean by what happened? Didn’t you ask me to kidnap this woman?” Donavan asked.“You… How dare you deceive me?” As matters stood, Fiona had realized that she got fooled. However, it was too late for her to turn things around as the police had charged both of them for kidnapping and murder. Section 239 of the Criminal Law prescribed a minimum of 10 years of penalty in prison or life imprisonment for the crime of kidnapping for the purpose of extorting money. Furthermore, kidnapping another person as a hostage would either result in a fine or confiscation of pro

    Yosef and Ella’s engagement was being announced and Pearlie who was in the States obviously knew about it also. Hearing that Ella was Yvonne’s sister, she felt even more uneasy. ‘Yvonne is gone but now we have Ella? Did I get lured into this?’As Pearlie was still reeling from the news, something worse happened. Under the pressure of the Quimbys’, Pearlie’s parents made the move to terminate the marriage agreement for her and Zachary. She was still dreaming about marrying him after the 3-year promise, but she did not expect her parents to terminate the agreement, she was so pissed.‘It’s all because of that b*tch Yvonne Yates! If not, I will not become like this!’ Pearlie then returned to Coreulu in anger.Pearlie was thinking of a plan to ruin Yvonne’s life. ‘Since you’ve destroyed my happiness, you don’t deserve to have any either, I will make you pay.’ Knowing that Fiona was now working as a wine girl in a bar, Pearlie personally went to her and persuaded her to deal with Yvo

    “Is Leo willing to give daddy a chance?”“Leo will as long as mommy gives daddy a chance.”Yvonne touched Leo’s head. “Good boy.” She then noticed a gaze staring at her from behind. She turned around and saw Yosef looking at her and Leo from behind.“Yosef, when did you get here?”“Just now.” Yosef walked over. “Yvonne, let’s talk.”Yvonne nodded and went to the garden with Yosef. He helped her to sit down on the bench. “Yvonne, do you believe in destiny?”Yvonne shook her head without knowing why Yosef said so."I never believed in destiny. I always believed that hard work could make everything I wanted, but I guess I was wrong!" Yosef looked at her delicate face. "Since that thing happened, my heart has been very hesitant. I'm struggling and I didn’t dare to face you. I thought about it for so many days and watched it coldly for so many days. Today I finally mustered up the courage to come to you."Yvonne sighed. “I am sorry Yosef, it’s all my fault.”“No! It’s not your fa

    Yvonne promised Yosef that she would stay with him and also promised to forgive him but now she faced a bigger problem. After all, Ella was her sister and they have the same blood flowing in their bodies, she could not accept a man who had a relationship with her sister.Now it was not about whether she accepted Yosef or not, it was the matter whether Ella really liked Yosef. Yvonne saw how Ella looked at Yosef with a longing gaze and thinking of the child in Ella’s womb, she wanted to persuade him to accept her. Ever since their conversation that day in the hospital, Yosef avoided being alone with her and Yvonne knew that it was because he did not want Yvonne to tell him to take responsibility for Ella. Yvonne also felt bad as Yosef wasted nine years because of her and how could she persuade him to marry Ella now?As Yvonne felt hesitant, Sandra came to persuade her. “Yvonne, you should give Jackson a chance.”“You guys have been speaking on behalf of Jackson these days? Didn’t y

    “Do we really need to give her money to settle this?” Sandra asked. Jackson sneered. “Why should we? Just let her file the report.”“Are we really letting her do it?” Most of the people knew about the paintings, if it was further exposed, it would not look good on Jared. “Fiona knew that we wouldn’t want to cause any more trouble, that’s why she threatened us that way. If we were to be afraid of her, she would be even more extreme next time, just let her report it,” Jackson explained. “I will ask someone to take care of her in there and she will know what to do by then.”“We cannot let her run amok anymore, she deserves whatever she will be getting, just let her file the report!” Yvonne agreed to his statement as well. Evil could never win against good, if they kept on tolerating people like Fiona, she would definitely take another step further. Fiona initially planned to just threaten them once to get some money so she could live a better life, but she did not expect Yvonne

    Yvonne nodded while looking at Ella. Jared then called out to Jackson. “I’ve made too many mistakes in my life, I’ve betrayed my wife and wronged my daughters. I really hope that you won't repeat what I did. I am handing Yvonne over to you and I won’t forgive you if you dare to wrong her!” “Father, don’t worry, I will not let Yvonne down!” Jackson swore. “Yvonne, you are a good child. Father knows that you still love Jackson in your heart, so does he. It’s all my fault back then, for the sake of Leo and the child in your womb, forgive him!”“I have forgiven him!” Yvonne answered“I still have one last request...Please bury me...beside Cindy...after I die…” Jared panted as he spoke. Yvonne nodded. “Don’t worry, father!”Hearing what Yvonne said, Jared showed a smile of relief, and his last wish was granted so he had nothing to worry about anymore. He gradually said, “Cindy, I am coming!” and closed his eyes. “Father!” Yvonne and Ella exclaimed at the same time but Jared coul

    “Don’t cry, it’s over!” Yvonne patted her shoulder gently and comforted her. “This is actually a relief to her as well!” “Yeah, it is better to die if a person is alive with nothing but pain. Since she is reluctant to die, this is the best way to relieve her at the moment.”Yosef stood aside. Seeing Yvonne and Ella hugging each other crying, he felt extremely complicated. Yvonne was a righteous person and he knew that it would be impossible for him to be with her anymore. He sighed in his heart, ‘Loving each other doesn’t necessarily guarantee a good relationship!’Ella seemed to have heard Yosef’s sigh, she looked up at Yosef with teary eyes. “Brother Turner, I will not hold you back, I won’t let the child bother you.”“What nonsense is this?” Yvonne glared at Ella, the hug earlier cleared out all the barriers between the two girls. “Yosef is not a cruel person! You are my only sister and this is his only child, he will let you have the child.”Hearing what Yvonne mentioned, Yos
