The old master's heart was feeling uncomfortable while watching his grandson going insane. What charms do Yvonne and her mother possess?Cindy Yates made his son abandon his own family, and now his grandson was willing to do anything for her daughter. There was a wave of slight anger in his heart, he raised his teacup and sipped some tea. "Zach, actually I didn't say anything to Ms. Yates, she volunteered to leave you, you can ask her if you don't believe what I said.""Volunteered? How is that possible?" Of course, Zachary would not believe what he said, "Grandpa, tell me honestly, what tricks did you play to make Yvonne so determined to leave me." “It’s simple, I told her that she’s a divorced woman, she had a child, and she’s not good enough for you. I don’t like her, that’s all.” “That’s impossible!” Zachary refused to believe. “It’s the truth, she gave up because she thought that she didn't deserve you, which proves that she’s not deeply in love with you.” The old maste
Once, Yvonne felt nothing wrong with Zachary's companionship every day. Now she was suddenly living a life without Zachary, she realized that she was spending her days in misery. After dinner when she sat in the living room, she would look at her phone, even if she knew that there would be no text messages or phone calls, but deep down in her heart, she was still expecting something inexplicably.Wesley was playing with Leo beside her, Yvonne’s actions did not manage to escape his sight, he sighed. “Yvonne, it’s still early, what about bringing Leo outside for a walk?” "Sure!" Yvonne stood up, held Leo's hand, and went downstairs with Wesley.The three of them got out of the district and walked beside the road, there was a bazaar not far away from the district. It had always been busy there during the nighttime.Leo saw many people there, he pointed in the direction of the bazaar with his fat little fingers. "Mommy, can we go there to play?" “Alright!”The trio reached the ba
Jackson’s heart was finally at ease, Leo saw his mother was lying on the hospital bed asleep. Leo struggled out of Jackson’s arms, and approached Yvonne to hold her hands, and shook them. “Mommy, don’t sleep. I’m afraid!”Jackson went up and held him while comforting him. “Mommy is tired, she’ll get better after sleeping.” The sensible Leo fell silent after listening to Jackson, he held his mother’s hand with his little hand, he remained motionless and watched over her. Jackson felt a little sad watching this, the young child was so sensible at his age, he could feel his eyes tearing up, then he held Leo’s and Yvonne’s hands together in his. Not sure how long it took for Yvonne to finally open her eyes. “Mommy! Mommy is awake!” Leo was pleasantly surprised.The first thing Yvonne saw after waking up was Jackson, she felt her whole body aching. “Leo… Leo!”"Leo is here right? Don't worry, he's fine," Jackson replied to her instantly. “Jackson...why...why are you here?” Yvonne l
Sandra was holding her hand and comforting her. “Yvonne, don’t worry, get yourself recovered first. After you’re discharged, you can move to my house, then slowly find yourself a job. I’ll prepare your portion when it comes to food.” Yvonne was speechless while she held Sandra’s hand, the only right thing she had done in her whole life was to get to know a friend like Sandra. Yvonne rejected those ideas when Sandra was planning to take a leave from work to take care of her. "Sandra, go ahead, I'm not injured to the point that I can't take care of myself."Sandra nodded her head. “I’ll visit again at night.” She had been busy with a case lately, there would be a significant amount of money coming in if she did it successfully. Yvonne was in trouble now, everything would be easier if there was money.Jared found out about the fire in the first place as soon as he heard the news, he personally went to the hospital to visit the injured.Those who were hurt were in the same ward with
“What would you like to drink?” Jackson asked her gently, “Blue Mountain or Cappuccino?” She had always preferred Mocha, and she always ordered Mocha whenever she met Jackson, but Jackson had no idea what she liked to drink until now. Fiona felt sad in her heart. “Mocha.”Jackson helped her to order Mocha, while he ordered Blue Mountain for himself. Fiona harbored a deep resentment when she saw him and Yvonne having the same taste preferences, but she appeared to be concerned. "Jackson, you looked like you've lost weight."“Did I?” Jackson gave a faint smile. In the meantime, the waiter came to serve the coffee, Fiona took a sip of her coffee, Jackson remained still and waited for Fiona to put down the cup. He spoke, “Fiona, I’m sorry, I can’t get engaged with you.”She knew he was going to tell her something when he asked her out, but she did not expect he would tell her in such a straightforward manner saying that he was unable to get engaged with her. A few years earlier, it
“I’m fine.”“I’ve talked to President Quimby about your matter, he’s in the United States, he’ll probably be back by tomorrow. He asked me to send you a message.”Felix paused for a moment. "President Quimby said, for you have signed a contract with him, and if you're not going back to the company to work, you're obliged to pay for a huge amount of compensation for breaching the contract. So I hope you can think about it carefully, it'd be better to go back to work. Besides, President Quimby knew you've been quite unlucky recently, he said you're allowed to take leave from work until you're fully recovered then you can go back to work."“I…” Yvonne had no idea what to say.“President Quimby added, your break time is not limited, and you’re getting paid leave. However, after recovering you must go back to work immediately. Otherwise, he’ll make sure that you’ll be held liable under the law!”Yvonne tried to stop her tears from rolling out of her eyes. “How is he?”“He’s fine, he e
There was a definite possibility that Miller did not know about Yvonne and Fiona’s relationship, perhaps he was attracted to her beauty. He recalled how Jackson was staring at Yvonne the last time they met, Zachary furrowed his brows. He had to think of a solution, he must not let Miller take advantage first.He was deeply in thought when Felix suddenly spoke, "President Quimby, Assistant Yates can't stay there anymore."“I know.” Zachary was slightly impatient when he got interrupted. He closed his eyes and thought for a moment then he spoke, “Go and buy a new house right now, then rent it to her. This must be done without anyone noticing.” “President Quimby, what are you up to? During times like this, you should take the initiative to care about her to show that you’ve got the whole ethics thing, that’s how you get the girl, right?” Felix could not understand.“What do you know?” Zachary gave him a hard stare, he had to be particular about the methods and means in pursuing a w
Jade was shocked when she heard that her son risked his life being knocked down by a car to save Yvonne's son. Last time, her son was burned because of Yvonne, and now he did not consider his own safety to save her son. Jade came to realize that Yvonne was a jinx, she might kill her son someday at this rate. She had to get her out of South City, as soon as possible! Roxanne said that Yvonne's house was burned down and she had nowhere to stay, and she lost her job. It was the perfect timing to add fuel to the fire, she could take the opportunity to deal with Yvonne, make her leave South City immediately, and as far as possible. Jade agreed that it was a chance instead, so she called Yvonne on the phone. “Madam Miller? Why are you calling me?” Yvonne felt uncomfortable listening to Jade’s voice, her tone was cold too. “I just found out what happened to your home after I saw the news. I’m sorry to hear that.”Jade called to express her sympathy, that was unusual. There was no dou
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
