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

    “Did I say it wrong? Jackson smiled. “Mom, do you remember what you told me before?” “What is it?” Jade was confused. She had said so many things to Jackson before and was clueless.“You told me you’ll stop interfering in my affairs if I promised you two things. I’ve promised you to divorce, and now I’ve promised you to marry. I hope after the marriage you’ll stop interfering in my affairs!”Jade was stunned. She seemed to have said something like that, but was there a mother who would not care about her son? Seeing his unstable emotions, she just played along and promised, “As long as you marry Fiona, I’ll stop interfering in your affairs.”Jackson’s face finally showed some warmth. “Thanks, Mom!”“As for the matter with you and Fiona, I’ve sought opinions from Secretary Summers and Mrs. Summer. They don't have any particular requests; they just want to keep it simple. His profession requires him to be a role model, but we as businessmen don’t have to care as much. So I think we

    Leo was fast asleep and even snoring. However, Yvonne tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Even though she tried to control it, memories of when she was wronged in the past kept appearing in her mind. When she was with Jackson, she had been under great pressure. He was handsome and had a loaded family. Why did he end up choosing a Cinderella like her? She was against it and even refused to go near him but slowly changed her mind under his influence. She began to indulge herself in his warmth. She knew Jade did not like her and even pulled a long face the first time she met him. Her eyes seemed to be taunting her and she had spoken with an arrogant voice. “How old are you? What do your parents do?”Yvonne could tell that Jade was not happy from her face and tone. She looked at Jackson, forcing down the feeling of being wronged and tried her best to reply politely.After hearing that her mother was dead, Jade’s expression turned worse. “How can this be? Is your fortune twisted?”

    Yvonne was forced to drink a Traditional Chinese Medicine remedy for infertility. To drink it was the easiest. Jade would still look for weird medicines for her to take. One day, she found a method that was said to be great at curing infertility—black ants soaked in white wine. She said Yvonne was sure to get pregnant after drinking it, but Yvonne could not bear the sight of the black pile of ants and did not drink it. Jade shouted at her and asked her to leave if she could not conceive a grandchild for her. Yvonne tried her best to ignore it from the start, but everyone had their own limits. The toll on her mental capacity and body finally made her crack. Hence, the two started arguing. Some of their arguments were witnessed by Jackson. Jade knew how to act and pretended to be the one getting bullied when she was actually the instigator. She used this as an excuse to make them divorce.Yvonne had enough of such a life and could not take it anymore. She had a serious con

    Was it because of Yosef? He knew Yosef always had a woman on his mind, but he did not know if it was her until yesterday. He was also unsure about Yosef and Yvonne’s relationship. It was confirmed that Yosef liked her, but how did she feel about him? Yvonne was not the type of girl to fool around. Zachary could confirm that she did not have that sort of love for Yosef. Otherwise, having known Yosef for so many years, his warmth would have surely won her over by now. After finding out that Yosef liked Yvonne, Zachary was quite bothered about it. One should not touch your friend’s romantic partner. He should back off the moment he found out that Yosef liked Yvonne. However, he could not control his heart and it was the first time he could not do so in his whole life. He was sure what he wanted. He liked Yvonne, wanted to protect her, and give her all the warmth and love. However, he held no position in this woman’s heart. Zachary knew Yvonne was not like the other women

    Zachary and Yvonne turned around to look, only to see Jackson who was clad in a green tuxedo without a tie. He was standing at the Western restaurant’s entrance with his arms crossed over each other. Jackson definitely held a grudge against Zachary.At first, it was over the urban planning case. Zachary had used Yvonne to seduce Jared. This had already annoyed him to the point where he sent James to spy on the Quimby household. After hearing that Zachary had booked this entire Western restaurant and even prepared fresh flowers alongside balloons and planned to bring Yvonne here, Zachary could already guess what the Casanova was up to.Yvonne was his. How could he let other people vy for her? Hence, Jackson drove over without even hesitating.Zachary was angry. He had already booked the whole restaurant. They were not supposed to be accepting any customers, so why was Jackson here?“I’m sorry President Quimby.” Jackson walked over without paying heed to Zachary’s expression and sat

    “Yvonne, do you really not like me at all?” Zachary could not help but be slightly angered at her cold attitude. “I only have the utmost respect for you, President Quimby,” Yvonne replied.“Don’t call me ‘President Quimby’, call me by my actual name!” Yvonne’s reply made Zachary fly into a fit of rage. “That isn’t too appropriate, is it?”“What’s not appropriate about it? If I say it’s good, then it’s good. Call me by my name!” Zachary ordered.Yvonne responded with a guttural sound and Zachary slowed down his speech. “Yvonne, I’m not a bad person. I’m really not. Can you try liking me?” “No way!” Yvonne replied bluntly.“You… Don’t you regret this later on!” “Rest assured, I won’t!”Zachary leaned back and ordered Yvonne, “Stop the car!” Yvonne stopped the car abruptly, and Zachary forced her out of the car. “If you don’t like me, then get lost! Don’t let me see you again!” Yvonne was forced out of the car. Zachary hopped into the driver’s seat. Her ba

    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
