Zachary nodded. “But it was useless looking for him. The authority has already stated that the pitching call needs to be done fair and square. The most important thing is not just having the ability but also being able to come up with innovative designs.”

Yvonne smiled wryly. No wonder Jared did not respond to her intimidation last night. It turned out that he already knew the outcome. Yvonne suddenly felt annoyed about it. Zachary was surprised to see her face turning gloomy. “You don’t seem to be too happy about it?”

“No, that’s not it.” Yvonne forced a smile. “Is the current focus of your work finding a designer?”

Zachary nodded. “My grandfather called and said there was news that Frank Moss might be in South City. He told me to do all I can to find him.”

“Is Frank Moss a famous designer?” Yvonne Yates asked.

“He’s not only a designer but a genius designer. He became famous more than 30 years ago, and he won the most honorable architecture award at the age of 25—the Pritker’s

    Yvonne shook her head. “Since he’s deliberately hiding from the public, he’ll certainly be hard to find. We shouldn’t only focus on him.”“I know. I’ll go overseas and meet with a few designers. You can take a break as I’ll not be around in the next two days,” said Zachary to Yvonne while standing up. After Zachary and Felix left the office, Yvonne went home. Wesley was very happy that she came home. “‘I’ll go buy groceries now and prepare lunch.” Yvonne stopped him and said, “Uncle, it’s not lunchtime yet. Let's have a talk.” Wesley sat down and asked, “Do Jared and that woman treat you well?” “Just like usual,” said Yvonne. She then told Wesley, “Jared was very outright last night and I thought that it was because he felt that he owed me. But who would have thought that it was all part of his plan? He’s such a cunning person!” “If he were not a bad person, he wouldn’t have cheated on your mother back then,” said Wesley. “You shouldn’t believe his w

    Yvonne did not realize that Wesley’s expression had changed at the mention of Dave. Zachary had mentioned that Frank Moss was living in seclusion in South City. She wondered if her uncle who stayed in South City had heard about this person. “Anyways, Uncle, since you lived in South City for many years, have you heard of someone named Frank Moss? “No!” answered Wesley.“I suppose anger has made me befuddled. Since Frank Moss is living in seclusion, it’s impossible that he would reveal his real name,” Yvonne laughed. “Yvonne, why are you looking for this Frank Moss?” Wesley asked. Yvonne told Wesley about what happened to the design of the venue. “If we can get Frank’s design, then Centurion Group will have a higher chance of winning. Or else, we’ll be tied with Miller Corporation.“ Wesley looked thoughtful. “Yvonne, God will bless good people. Who knows, maybe you can really find Frank Moss?” “I know you’re comforting me. Even if we can find Frank, it doesn’t

    “You….” “Once again, the city construction project was earned by Centurion’s own ability, and as for the sports competition, didn't Secretary Summers say it’s going to be a fair competition? Don’t worry, Miss Summers. You’re Secretary Summers’ sweetheart while Jackson Miller is his future son-in-law. Of course, he won’t treat you shabbily.”“You don't have to act like this. Father promised me the sports competition but he made it a fair competition. Father is biased toward you, so why are you still not satisfied?”“Biased? Secretary Summers, is it true?” Yvonne looked at Jared. “You can’t use paper to put out a fire, thus no matter how perfect your lies are, it’s still possible that the truth will be revealed one day. Regarding the sports competition, I’m sure that you know very well what’s really going on right?” Jared’s face was flushed for a moment and then he turned pale. He had wanted to find time to talk to her about it but did not expect that she would find out about th

    “Those properties will obviously belong to you but only after Fiona gets married,” Jared explained. “Which means if Fiona never gets married, then I’ll not be able to get the properties?” Yvonne mocked, “Secretary Summers, just be clear with me. You’re worried that I’ll snatch away your daughter’s man, right?” “Yvonne, you’ve misunderstood me!” Jared felt awkward as he had told Susan and her daughter that the properties would only go to Yvonne when Fiona and Jackson got married. Since Fiona had not married Jackson yet, those properties could not be touched as they did not amount to a small amount. If Susan and her daughter knew that he was hiding all these properties, he knew unnecessary trouble would come knocking on his door—especially with Susan’s greed.Jared was not afraid of Susan’s greed. It was because others should not know the existence of these properties. “Enough, Secretary Summers. If you’re not giving them to me, then forget it. You don’t have to explain!” Yvon

    Jackson stood at the doorway with a solemn face. He received a call from Fiona, informing him that his mother had gone to look for Yvonne. His mother had a short temper, and Yvonne was pretty ill-tempered as well.He was worried that they would end up arguing. Hence, he immediately rushed over as soon as he received the call. At the door, he heard his mother begging Yvonne. In return, Yvonne asked her if Jackson was a car or a dog. Hearing this, Jackson was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot."What are you doing here?" Jade was shocked to see her son. Jackson did not answer her but just stared at Yvonne for quite a while. Then, he extended his hand to Yvonne and said, "Ms. Yates, nice to meet you. I'm Jackson. I'm neither a cat nor a dog as you just said."Yvonne turned a blind eye to his outstretched hand. "Madam Miller, I have nothing more to say to you. I hope you won't do such childish things like calling me or showing up in person to look for me at my company aga

    Hearing the words ‘ex-husband’ and ‘wife’ from the other side of the door, Zachary was stunned. It turned out the man Yvonne was previously married to was Jackson? Hearing Jackson asking Yvonne to apologize, Zachary became furious and rushed in without thinking much.Zachary stopped in front of Yvonne and Jackson. "President Miller, is it really appropriate for you to hold the hand of your sister-in-law like this?""F*ck off!" Jackson felt like he was being stabbed by a needle when he heard the words 'sister-in-law'. He shouted back at Zachary fiercely.Zachary was not angry. "Did I say something wrong?" He pretended to look at Jade. "Ms. Lewis, I'll let you be the judge of it. Isn't Jackson engaged to Secretary Summers’ second daughter? Yvonne is Secretary Summers’ eldest daughter, so doesn't that make her Chairman Miller's sister-in-law? What kind of message is being sent when a brother-in-law holds his sister-in-law's hand like this? If word gets out, won't it be embarrassing for

    “Does your son belong to Jackson?” he could not help but ask. Yvonne nodded. “He’s my son, and he’s not related to Jackson at all. I hope you won’t tell anyone else what you now know about my son. Other than Yosef and my uncle, you’re the fourth person to know this.” “Jackson doesn’t know?” Zachary was stunned. Yvonne was actually cruel enough to hide the fact that she had given birth to Jackson’s son from him. If Jackson knew he had a son, how would he react? However, after thinking about it, Jackson had cheated on her during their marriage. He then felt that Yvonne had made the right decision. As for the man who cheated, he deserved to be treated this way. “Who did Jackson cheat with back then? Yvonne felt that there was no point in hiding it anymore. “Actually, I didn’t choose to divorce him because of the cheating. It was because of my inability to bear a child.” “Then what about that kid?” “When he made that woman pregnant, I received my pregnancy test re

    Zachary was enraged. “Don’t let that Miller guy off the hook either. He likes to cheat, doesn’t he? So you should find women to seduce him and let Fiona feel the pain that you felt before.” Yvonne paused for a while. She realized that Zachary’s suggestion was actually not bad. If she could find a woman to seduce Jackson and steal his sperm... She stopped the car. “Zachary, can you do me a favor?” “What favor?” Yvonne told him about her plan to extract Jackson’s sperm. Zachary was stunned. “Do you really want to have another child with Jackson?” “It’s not about wanting to have a child with Jackson. I’m just doing it for my son. The doctor has said that the bone marrow transplant doesn’t have a high recovery rate. I don’t want anything to happen to my son, so…” Zachary remained silent for a moment. “Giving birth to a child is not that big of a fuss. But the thought of you having one with a scumbag like Jackson makes me uncomfortable.” “I don’t want to be invol

    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
