After scolding her, he left angrily.

Only Susan and her daughter were left in the ward. After they left, Fiona opened her eyes and Susan glared at her angrily. "What are you trying to achieve?"

"Mom, I didn't know it would be like this!" Fiona naturally never hid anything from her mother. Hence, she told her about her plan to seduce Jackson tonight.

Susan was so angry that she poked her daughter's head. "You're really stupid! You're going to get engaged soon, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Mom, I'm worried. In the past, he was very callous towards me. Now that Yvonne is back, he's become even more callous. I saw that he went to Yvonne's house. He must have gone to look for Yvonne. If they start anew, what can I do?"

"Is that why you're trying to seduce him?" Susan scoffed. "Do you know that you've achieved the opposite?"

"The opposite?" Fiona was stunned.

"He didn't even touch you when you were fine. How could he touch you when you're drunk? It's more likely to happen if he's dr

    "Girl, have you really thought it through? That kid from the Quimby family is fickle and deceitful. You won't lead a good life with him," Matriarch Turner reminded her."I know he's unfaithful and treacherous, but I just like him. I don't fancy anyone else," Pearlie answered.The old madam sighed heavily. "After this matter is settled, I'll go and talk to the Quimby family and settle your matter as soon as possible."Pearlie's face lit up with joy upon hearing the elderly lady's words.Yosef booked a plane ticket and called Yvonne to tell her that the old lady was sick. Although the old lady had broken up Yosef and her, everyone had different standpoints. Yvonne did not hate the old lady that much. Hearing that the old lady was seriously ill, she was also very worried and encouraged Yosef to go back immediately.Yosef took the plane the next morning. Yvonne and Leo went to the airport to send him off. Seeing Leo leave, Leo could not help but start crying, so Yosef could only comfo

    Jackson opened his eyes and saw Yvonne and Leo as well. Why did Yosef leave the child behind? Could it be that the child was not Yosef's? Thinking of how Yvonne said she was a single mother on a match-making show, his eyebrows rose. He gave James an order, "Drive the car over and take a closer look!"Yvonne placed Leo on the seat and ordered a six-inch pizza with the flavor that Leo liked. She ordered two glasses of juice and a snack platter. Leo was very happy and started eating away.Yvonne's eyes were filled with smiles as she watched him wolf down the food. "Slow down, have a drink. Don't choke!""Mommy, eat!" Leo ate a piece of pizza. Seeing that Yvonne did not move, he brought the pizza to her mouth."Mommy's not eating! Mommy's watching you eat!""I want Mommy to eat with me!" Leo insisted. Yvonne had no choice but to take a bite from his hand.Leo took another bite and smiled. "Is it good?""Delicious!"Jackson entered the pizza parlor and sat down near Yvonne and Leo.

    At that time, she was overjoyed. She immediately called Jackson and waited for a long time before he picked up. However, it was only a few cold words. He was very busy and told her not to disturb him.After hanging up, she turned around and ran into Fiona. She arrogantly handed her a pregnancy test report with her big belly.When she saw Jackson's signature on the pregnancy test report, she felt as if the world had collapsed!She remembered everything that happened that day very clearly, but she did not want to think about it. She did not want to relive that kind of pain and humiliation again for the rest of her life!Yvonne hugged Leo tightly! Jackson's sudden appearance had scared her to death! Why did he have to appear like a ghost all the time, recently?She was sure that Jackson had seen Leo's face clearly just now. Would he have suspicions about her? She took a closer look at her son. It was probably because he was still young. He looked a lot like her, but his face did not

    "This is called personality, do you understand? You little brat, learn from me in the future. Don't be like that sissy, Uncle Yosef!""Uncle Yosef is not a sissy!" Leo argued back."If I say he's a sissy, he's a sissy!" Zachary actually started arguing with a child. Yvonne shook her head. She really couldn't get angry with someone like Zachary. "What are you doing here?""What am I doing? Aren't you ashamed to ask?" Zachary turned to look at Yvonne. "Don't you know you've been absent from work?""Didn't I ask for leave? And you agreed," Yvonne retorted."I'm not happy now. Hurry up and go back to work!""Now?" Yvonne looked at him in confusion. What was wrong with Zachary?"I'm participating in an entrepreneur's gathering in South City tonight. I don't have a female companion. Come with me!" he ordered.Jackson would definitely attend the entrepreneurial event. Yvonne shook her head. "I'm not going.""This is your job scope! I'll cut out your bonus if you don't!" Zachary threa

    Zachary and Jackson greeted each other in a friendly manner. They were indeed businessmen, they didn't look like they had exchanged blows before.Yvonne looked at the two of them exchanging pleasantries politely. She felt stifled when she saw the fake smiles on their faces.In front of others, Fiona had always ignored Fiona. She would only call her sister when there was no one else around. Therefore, when she saw Yvonne and Zachary coming over, she only nodded politely. Yvonne, on the other hand, was indifferent and didn't take her seriously at all.The people attending the event tonight were all reputable and powerful. Yvonne was just a small assistant, yet she was so pretty, so she naturally became the target of exclusion and ridicule."Isn't this woman the divorced woman from the television station last time?" A wealthy lady recalled that Yvonne was on a blind date show."Yes, yes! Young Master Zachary even participated in the blind date program for her.""Yes, she rejected Yo

    Yvonne had just taken her feet out of her heels to get comfortable when a low voice spoke behind her. "If Zachary sees you like this, he'll definitely be disgusted!"Yvonne sneered without turning her head. "What does it have to do with you whether he likes it or not?"Jackson was provoked by the coldness in her tone. He approached Yvonne. "Who is that man?""What man?" Yvonne was baffled."You don't understand what I'm trying to say?" Jackson narrowed his eyes slightly, a dangerous look filling his eyes. "I say, who is the child's father? Don't tell me you don't even know who the child's father is?"Yvonne's heart skipped a beat and she stood up immediately. Jackson's words shocked her. It was only when she heard the last part that she reacted and started to put on her shoes. "Mr. Miller, are you so bored that you have to be nosy about other people's private matters?"Jackson was very dissatisfied with her answer. He reached out and held her chin, forcing her to look into his ey

    He did not want to come to tonight's gathering at all, but he could not reject it. Initially, he only wanted to leave after arriving at the venue for a while, but he did not expect to see her again.She was so eye-catching that she easily stole his heart. Seeing how protective Zachary was of her, his jealousy was riled up again.When he saw her going to the garden alone, he followed her. He had a lot of questions to ask her. What he really wanted to know was who that man was.However, she refused to answer! This made his suspicions about his guess even greater. Was that man really Yosef?However, if it was Yosef, why would she have such an ambiguous relationship with Zachary? He did not forget that night when he saw her kissing Zachary in the car.A friend's wife should not be made a wife of your own. How could Zachary do anything to Yosef's woman?If it was not Yosef, who could that man be? Who was it that was worthy of her having his child?A fire was burning in his heart. The

    Fiona did not dodge and took that hard slap. Immediately, an obvious palm mark appeared on her tender and pale face.At that exact moment, a woman walked into the bathroom and saw the scene of Yvonne hitting Fiona clearly. Fiona was Secretary Summers' daughter, Jackson's girlfriend, while Yvonne was just a little old nobody.A little old nobody slapping Secretary Summers' daughter was clearly asking for death. The noble lady immediately shrieked and when Fiona saw someone there, she began to cover her face and cry.Immediately, someone told everyone in the hall about the scene. When Jackson heard the commotion in the garden, he threw down his cigarette and turned around. In the corridor, he saw a group of people gathered around and in a glance, he saw Yvonne in the middle, surrounded by everyone.His heart tightened and he strode over. When Fiona saw Jackson, it was as if she saw her savior as she pitifully threw herself into his arms and cried even harder.Jackson held her in his

    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
