Mysterious Husband: Pampering Wife Chapter 23
“Really? How shameful can that little b*tch get? If she’s not going to take the high way out, we might as well push her down to hell. Let’s embarrass her tonight!” Susan said as she laughed. “Mom, what are you planning to do? “You guys are planning to meet up with others tonight, right? If I recall correctly, Mr. Lance will be there as well, right?” “Yes.” “Mr. Lance is known for not being able to step away from pretty women. That little b*tch is so pretty, there’s no way he will let her go. You have to think of a way to get Mr. Lance to make a move on Yvonne.” Fiona’s eyes sparkled when she heard that Mr. Lance was known for being a playboy who slept with all kinds of women without regard or responsibility for anything afterward. Her mom’s experience was the most valuable advantage she has over Yvonne.Yvonne had no idea that the evil mother and daughter duo were getting ready to set her up that night. She entered a private booth in The Night Sky with Zachary and his band o

“I won’t let go! You look so gorgeous and tasty. Come with me tonight. I’ll take good care of you!” Mr. Lance began groping Yvonne as he spoke. Yvonne became angry as she dodged his hands and slapped him. “How dare you slap me?” Flames were in Mr. Lance’s eyes as he got slapped. “Such audacity. Do you know who I am?” “Why should I care who you are? F*ck off!” This time, she attracted the attention of the bodyguards Mr. Lance had brought along with him. “Mr. Lance! Are you alright?” Mr. Lance nursed his stinging cheek. There was no way that he would let this go. He pointed at Yvonne as he said, “Take this woman to my room!” “Mr. Lance, she isn’t the kind of woman that you think she is!” the bodyguard answered after glancing at Yvonne. “I don’t care what kind of woman she is. I’ve got my eyes set on her tonight. Hurry up and take her to my room!” The two men dared not say anything else against Mr. Lance and dragged Yvonne along with them. “Help!” was the only thing Yvonne m

He had just finished speaking to someone when he opened the door. “You seem to be having a lot of fun, Mr. Lance!” a voice spoke out.That voice sounded incredibly familiar. Yvonne looked up in a daze toward the door and saw Jackson, dressed in a black suit looking back at her by the doorway with a shocked expression on his face. As her blurry vision came to focus, a cold smile appeared on that familiar face. He stood above her while observing her. His eyes were devoid of any emotion. Yvonne closed her eyes in desperation. She would rather get r*ped than letting him see her in such a messy state now. “President Miller!” Mr. Lance had not expected Jackson to make an appearance, and a cheeky grin appeared on his face. “What attracted you here to my place?” “This is my territory!” Jackson said coldly. “Mr. Lance, don’t you think you owe me an explanation for causing trouble in my territory?” Jackson was an apathetic man who rarely paid attention to other people’s business. He h

“Of course I am fine. What could happen to me?” Zachary laughed and said, “We’ll train together again another day, Miller. I’m going to get my revenge.” “I look forward to it!” Jackson retorted. Zachary had said that he was alright, but Yvonne saw what was going on just now. He was obviously at a disadvantage during his fight with Jackson because he had had too much to drink. She had always hated Zachary for some reason. She suddenly realized there was nothing about him to hate after he took his shirt to cover her tonight. Jackson sat in the room dejected. The corner of his mouth was bleeding from the fight, and there were bruises on his face. That made him look incredibly disheveled. James ordered someone to bring the first aid kit over. “President Miller, this might hurt a little. Hang on.” “This tiny wound does nothing to me!” Jackson said as he gritted his teeth. Compared to the gaping wound in his heart, a tiny wound like that meant nothing. He could not help but cur

“I’m much better. The doctor said I’m recovering well, and I can be discharged tomorrow to rest at home. Hospital stays are so expensive.” Wesley was worried about the cost of staying in a hospital, and it made Yvonne feel sad. “You’re not getting discharged tomorrow. Stay longer for a few more days. We’ll leave once you have fully recovered.” “I’m fine, Yvonne!” “Don’t worry about money, uncle. I have money! President Quimby is paying me a high salary.” “Zachary indeed treats you well, but you’re not alone, Yvonne. Besides your burdensome uncle, you also have a child to take care of. Leo is growing day by day. You can’t leave him with Yosef forever, you know? Your son needs a mother’s love.” The name “Leo” caused a sad expression to appear on Yvonne’s face. That’s right, she had a son. She could not ask Yosef to care for him forever, right? Sighing slightly, she forced a smile on her face and said, “Don’t worry, uncle. Once you’re better and I have saved up enough money, I

The next morning, Yvonne went to the office with a bruise on the corner of his mouth. Zachary also had a bruise on the corner of his mouth. When they saw the bruises on each other’s faces, the two burst into laughter. The atmosphere was a massive improvement from the night before. When it was time for lunch, Zachary took Yvonne to a nearby restaurant. It was a Mexican restaurant. Yvonne thought to herself, ‘Doesn't Zachary hate Mexican food? What’s going on today?’The two had not placed their orders when a voice spoke out, “I can’t believe we meet again so quickly!” When Yvonne turned around, she saw that Mr. Lance and two of his bodyguards were looking at her and Zachary. Zachary might have just arrived at South City, but he knew what’s going on in South City. He immediately recognized Mr. Lance at first glance and laughed as he said, “You missed out on the second part. It was no trouble finding you!”“Teach this boy a lesson!” Mr. Lance ordered his two men. The two men imme

The only thing left for Yvonne to do was pack up and go home. When she walked to the first floor, she saw an Audi parked outside. The door opened abruptly when the person inside the car saw her. Jared stepped out of the car. “Yvonne.” “What are you doing here?” Yvonne asked in surprise. “What happened to your mouth?” Jared’s expression turned sad when he saw the bruise at the corner of her mouth. “Who hit you?” “Who hit me? Commissioner Lance’s son!” Yvonne said, laughing out loud. “He hit you? Does that mean Zachary beat him up today because of you?” “Yes!” Jared was there to discuss the city development project with Yvonne. He knew all about Jackson’s plans to develop the city, and he also understood that Jackson was a capable man. There would be nothing to worry about if the city development project fell into Jackson’s hands. However, things had changed now since Zachary had returned and caused some trouble. The Quimby family was influential, and more importantly, Yv

“How about the twenty-fifth of next month as the engagement date? The city development tender should be settled by then!” “Alright, the twenty-fifth of next month it is.” Susan immediately agreed, and the two discussed details about Fiona and Jackson’s engagement before going their separate ways. Jackson only returned at ten o’clock that night. Jade started talking to him about the engagement when he returned. “I’ve discussed the engagement with Madam Millers today. The date was decided on the twenty-fifth of next month.” Jackson remained silent, and Jade continued coaxing him. “Jackson, Fiona is a kind, obedient girl who has suffered so much for you. You should marry her because of that. Besides, she’s Jared Summers’ daughter. No harm in marrying her.” Jackson remained silent. Jade had already grown used to her son’s silence. Ever since she had threatened him with death so that he would kick Yvonne out of the family, they had had less and less to talk to each other. Sometime

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
Mysterious Husband: Pampering Wife Chapter 685
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
Mysterious Husband: Pampering Wife Chapter 684
“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
