”I’m not surprised, I’m touched!” This was the first time Yvonne suggested that she would make breakfast ever since she moved in. Before this, she would give the excuse that she had forgotten about it. Now, she was willing to make breakfast. Did that mean she had let go of the past and was ready to accept him again?

Jared pushed the door open after coming back from her morning jog. Guilt was written all over Fiona’s face. “Dad, I’m sorry! I drank too much last night. I won’t do it again!”

“Do you know that you’ve made a terrible mistake?” Jared said without a trace of warmth in his eyes.

“I’m really sorry,” Fiona replied, “Dad, it was just a moment of weakness. Please forgive me!”

Jared gave no comments, and Fiona added, "Dad, it's been a long time since Yvonne came home. I miss her. Why don't you ask Ms. Lucy to prepare some of her favorite dishes and ask her to come home for dinner together with Brother-in-law?"

The word ‘brother-in-law’ made Jared turn to look at Fiona. Th

    “Stop! I don’t want to talk about this again.” Yvonne interrupted him. Jared could easily say nonsense like ‘It’s for the sake of your happiness’ and ‘I did everything for you’ but the words were unpleasant in her ears.“Secretary Summers, you’re a big-hearted and tolerant official. However, that mistress and her daughter are just ordinary people. Are you sure they’ll be alright with you saying such things?”"They’re well aware of their position,” Jared replied. What a good explanation to say that they were well aware of their position. Ever since Jared pretended to be sick, Yvonne had refused to believe in Jared anymore. She had a bad feeling about Jared asking her and Jackson to go back. She was sure that something was up. Yvonne did not care if he was planning something as she was prepared to watch the show that Jared and his family would put on. Others may have some emotions while watching but she absolutely would not. No matter what Jared had in mind, he would not succeed.

    Jared coldly swept his gaze over Fiona. His younger daughter had always carried the label of being kind, gentle, and sensible. However, he did not like that. He preferred the stubborn Yvonne who was rough around the edges as she was unpretentious and harmless.Jared Summers had been an official for several years. Although he hoped that his younger daughter could change and be made aware of her standing, he had started to grow vigilant of her. At this moment, he was surprised by the drastic change in his younger daughter. It was either she had realized her mistakes, or she was just putting on a show. Jackson was surprised too when he heard Fiona calling him her brother-in-law. She had wanted to sleep with him last night but was calling him her brother-in-law today. It was strange no matter how hard he tried to figure it out. Fiona was not a simple person at all! "Let's talk in the house," Jared said. They entered the house. Jared and Susan were sitting on the sofa. Yvonne and Jacks

    Jared tapped on the table in front of him with his fingers while keeping silent. Jackson continued to speak, "Although I'm engaged to Fiona, there's no chemistry between us and we haven’t done anything inappropriate either. I only have eyes for Yvonne. I hope you can give us your blessing!" “Things have already turned out this way, so I have no choice. I’m not against it as long as Yvonne agrees to marry you. Poor Fiona!” Jared gave out a long sigh.Jackson replied to him, “If there’s anything that Fiona needs, I shall compensate her! But by compensation, I only mean it in terms of money.”Jared's eyes brightened up when he heard the word ‘compensation’. He pondered for a moment. "There's no need for compensation. As long as you and Yvonne are happy, as Yvonne’s younger sister, Fiona will be happy for both of you.”Jackson thought that it was easy. Everything was final since Jared was not opposing him.After Jared and Jackson went into the study, Susan and her daughter pretende

    Right after Fiona kneeled, the door of the study opened as though it had been planned. Jared and Jackson walked out of the room and witnessed the scene in front of them. Jared's brows furrowed. "Fiona, why are you kneeling on the floor?" “I… I’m apologizing to Yvonne. If she doesn’t forgive me, I… I won’t stand up!” Fiona’s eyes were teary. She looked like she was being bullied by Yvonne.Jared quickly strode over when he heard this. “You’re both sisters. Family relationships are the strongest. You’ve learned from your mistake, so don’t do it again!” He moved his gaze to Yvonne. “Fiona is still young. It's inevitable for her to make mistakes. Forgive her this time.”Did Fiona not say that she would not stand up unless Yvonne forgave her? Jared simply wanted Yvonne to forgive her so that she could stand up.Yvonne gave a scornful smile. She did not help Fiona up or said anything. She only stared at Fiona, which creeped her out. She then said, “Secretary Summers, did you ask me to c

    Ella had been preoccupied these few days. At last, she followed Roxanne's order not to tell Jackson the truth about meeting Roxanne. When she heard that Roxanne was not her mother, Jackson had even comforted her and told her not to worry. He said he would help her to look for her mother in the future. Ella was feeling extremely guilty for deceiving Jackson. She was not an evil person, after all. She felt bad to be keeping this information from him.Roxanne came to see her, claiming that she had never fulfilled her responsibility as a mother for so many years. Now that she had some money, she wanted to make it up to Ella by sending her to further her studies abroad. Studying abroad was everyone’s dream, and Ella was tempted. Roxanne noticed her interest, so she said she would be handling the procedures of sending her abroad to study. She wanted Ella to quit her job in Jackson’s company immediately. Ella had been struggling with this. She was interested in Jackson. It was not only

    “Isn’t Fiona the mistress? What’s so pitiful about her?” Ella objected."Fiona isn't the mistress, it’s Yvonne. I know this better than you do." Roxanne told Ella that Fiona and Yvonne were sisters. She distorted the facts, claiming that Fiona and Jackson were childhood sweethearts. Yvonne was the mistress who gave up on her own boyfriend, Yosef Turner, to destroy Fiona and Jackson's relationship. She even tricked Jackson to sleep with her and forced him to marry her in the end.“It was not that she couldn’t bear a child, she was just giving excuses saying that she was sick. She was unwilling to bear Jackson’s child because she was still in love with Yosef and wanted to get back together with him. When she was married to Jackson, she would secretly meet Yosef. Jade got mad after she heard that, so she forced Jackson to divorce her. So it wasn’t because she was infertile but because she had an affair.”“She had an affair while she was still married?” Ella was so surprised that her ja

    "Yes. Last Friday was Jade's birthday and she invited Fiona over for dinner. Yvonne went mad again. She was afraid that something would happen between Fiona and Jackson. She called Jackson non-stop. He was planning to stay in the Millers’ house to accompany his mother that night but she got his assistant to go over to pick him up. She ruined the birthday celebration. Jade was so angry that she cried." “So that’s why there were marks on Jackson’s face. I knew it was because of her.” Ella was able to quickly put the pieces together.“Yes, she’s no different from a shrew. She was always fighting with Jade when she was married to Jackson back then. The house was always in a mess as she would smash everything.” Roxanne had no idea that there were marks on Jackson’s face. She just went along with it and continued to lie after hearing Ella saying so.“This woman is a pain in the *ss!” Ella was pissed. “We can’t let her get away with this, we have to do something about her!” After Roxann

    Yvonne’s words mercilessly exposed the fact that Ella only got together with Jackson because of a business deal. Ella’s face reddened immediately. “Yvonne, you’re out of line!” “Am I? I don’t think so.” Yvonne spread her hands. “I’m telling you, there’s nothing between me and Jackson. You don’t have the right to point fingers at me!”“Regardless of whether something is going on with you and Jackson or not, it has nothing to do with me. I’m not interested in criticizing people. If you don’t want to embarrass yourself, stop using Jackson as an excuse to look for me. I’m tired of people throwing themselves at others. As far as I know, you’re not someone close to Jackson, so stop blowing your own trumpet.” “You… Do you think I came looking for you because I wanted to? If it isn’t because you’re dominating Jackson and making him confused about what’s right and wrong, I wouldn’t have had the time to come looking for you,” Ella refuted.“Dominating? Confusing him about what's right an

    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
