Although Jackson was surprised to hear the news that Ella was resigning to further her studies abroad, he did not stop her. He agreed to Ella's resignation quickly. He even asked the finance department to pay Ella a few months extra.

At night, he went back to Fragrant Hills Valley. Yvonne was talking to Leo on the phone. Leo said he missed her and asked when Yvonne was going to visit him. Yvonne told him that she would visit him in a few days.

Yvonne quickly hung up the phone when she saw Jackson back home. Jackson pulled her and they sat on the sofa together. “Yvonne, Uncle asked to meet me today.”

“What did he want to do?” Yvonne asked him. Her senses told her that something must be wrong if Jared went looking for Jackson.

“Uncle gave me these.” Jackson took out the paintings that Jared had passed to him just now for Yvonne to look at.

Yvonne opened the scroll paintings and looked at them before putting them down. She knew nothing about paintings, but they must cost over a hund

    Yvonne would never believe in his promises anymore. Sandra had mentioned to her that having a child was not the problem. If she were able to get pregnant, what she was going to face was the problem of having two children. She could not be single for her whole life. She had to marry, and she had to look for a father for her child. There was no doubt that Jackson was the perfect and only candidate. Maybe she should give it a try. After all, Jackson was not a bad person. She remained silent for a while before nodding her head.Jackson was overwhelmed with happiness. He carried her in his arms and spun her around in the house. He had done the same thing—carrying her in his arms and spinning her around in the house—a few years ago when she said yes to Jackson's marriage proposal. There was a cloud of sadness in Yvonne's heart. She only hoped that it would be different this time. …Ever since Pearlie got engaged to Zachary, she would come over to keep Janice company and talk to her eve

    “Pearlie, you don’t understand what I mean. I’m worried that the life I’m living now will be yours in the future, do you understand?” Pearlie refused to believe it. She was pretty and had so many means. She refused to believe that Zachary would not see the good in her. Janice had to speak frankly, "I was exactly like you last time. I was madly in love with Gordon Quimby. I thought that I’d only marry Gordon. I had the same thoughts as you, not caring whether he loved me back or not as long as I loved him. I wanted to move him with my sincerity and let him see the good in me. I’d have him slowly fall for me... But what did I get in the end?"Bitterness was all over Janice's face. "Even though I married him and gave birth to his child for him, he never had me in his heart—not even a tiny bit. I married Gordon when I was in my 20s. I’ve wasted so many years of my youth. Look at what has become of me now? I’m living the remaining years of my life in solitude while practicing Christian

    The old madam and Yosef were talking about Yvonne in the study. “Yvonne has been away for a long time. Is there any news about her?”Yosef smiled. "Grandma, why are you suddenly so concerned about Yvonne? You're making me feel uncomfortable." “I treated her so badly before but she chose to forgive and forget. She even saved me. It’s hard to find such a person these days. It was my fault.” The old madam sighed. “If it weren’t for me, both of you wouldn't have ended up like this. Yvonne wouldn’t have had to suffer!” “Grandma, don’t blame yourself. Yvonne and I have never blamed you for this. You had your own reasons. Both of us know that.” Yosef comforted her.“You aren’t busy with the company lately, right? Spare some time to visit Yvonne!” The old madam added, “You don’t have to worry about Leo. Leave him to me. I’ll make sure he’s taken care of.” “Maybe next time.”“Why aren’t you more excited about this? Back then when I stopped you from seeing her, you’d always try to find

    “I won’t tell the others, but if the child is Jackson’s, why didn’t Yvonne tell him the truth? As the saying goes, a mother doesn’t kill her own. No matter how bad of a person Jackson is, he’s not that cold-blooded person to the point that he wouldn’t save his own son, right?” “Yvonne once called Jackson before he got engaged to Fiona. She asked him to call off the engagement with Fiona but Jackson heartlessly rejected her.” Yosef sighed. “What a tragedy that Yvonne met such a cold-hearted man.” The old madam was pissed. "Miller is such a malicious person. That's strange, though. Yvonne must’ve been blind when she chose him.” Old Madam Turner blamed herself, thinking that Yvonne only married Jackson because she disapproved of her being with Yosef. “It’s my fault. If it weren’t for me, Yvonne wouldn’t have ended up like this. I'm a sinner! Oh, my dear grandson, I’ll never stop you from getting together with Yvonne anymore!" “Grandma, it’s in the past. We have to move on, it’s not

    "Uncle, I know Yosef and Zachary have been kind to me, but Zachary is engaged now. Pearlie is a kind person, I don't want to drag her down." "Yvonne, this isn't about dragging someone down. To be able to take care of you is the happiest thing someone who loves you can do for you. I hope that you can think carefully about the matter with Jackson. Besides having a history with each other, Jackson also has an unreasonable mother. As long as his mother is still around, there'll always be problems between you and him. I don't want to see you compromising like how you used to in the past. Thus, I don't support you getting back together with Jackson."Yvonne had the same concerns as Wesley as well. She left Wesley's house with a heavy heart. When she was on the way back home, she picked up Jackson's call. He told her that he was going home late tonight and asked her to eat dinner first. He told her she did not have to wait for him.Yvonne was planning to have dinner outside since Jackson

    Zachary followed Yvonne's gaze and saw Jackson and Ella together. There was a sneer at the corner of his lips. Was Miller trying to put one foot in two boats? On the one hand, he was spending time with his lover. On the other hand, he wanted to get back together with Yvonne. He did not expect to bump into them so coincidentally today. It was pure coincidence. While he was thinking about it, he shot a glance at Yvonne and saw her face turning sullen.She put down the cutleries that she was holding. “I’m full!” “I’m full too, let’s go!” Zachary was being considerate and left with Yvonne. Yvonne’s face was still sullen and she kept silent the entire time. Although she did not say anything, Zachary knew she had made a decision about Jackson. It seemed like it was over for Miller this time. Ella said she was going to leave the day after tomorrow, so she invited Jackson out for dinner to express her gratitude for taking care of her all these years. Jackson had selected Ella because h

    Fiona got into the car, then Ella said, “My place is nearby. Brother Miller, you can drop me off first before dropping off Ms. Summers.”Jackson nodded. He had not drunk much but was feeling dizzy. He sat in the backseat and closed his eyes, unknowingly dozing off.When Ella and Fiona saw that Jackson had fallen asleep, they sent him back to the Millers’ house. Jade and Roxanne were waiting impatiently. They were delighted when they saw them. They all helped Jackson upstairs. Ella had accomplished her mission. She stood up and left the Millers’ house. Jade and Roxanne signaled Fiona to enter Jackson’s room. “Seize your chance and get pregnant!” Fiona closed the door with a sneer on her face. She had brought her secret weapon with her today. Jackson was asleep, so how were they supposed to have sex? She came here tonight not to sleep with Jackson but to make it seem as though they had sex and have Jade believe it. Roxanne had told her that Jackson’s semen was still being store

    There was the smell of Chanel perfume in the room. Jackson rubbed his forehead, rolled over and sat up. He then realized he did not have any clothes on. “Who took my clothes off?”“Mother removed them for you, fearing that you would not be able to sleep comfortably,” Jade explained. ‘Did I not only drink a few cups of alcohol? How was I that drunk?’ Jackson instantly felt that something was not right. He saw Jade standing there with a bowl of soup, and he got slightly irritated. “Mother, can you go out?”“I will leave after you drink the soup.”“Bah, I do not dare to drink your soup!” Jackson smiled coldly. “Please, just leave.”“Ungrateful,” Jade murmured and left. Jackson got up quickly and put on his clothes. He fumbled around to find his phone but he could not. Thus, he opened the door and yelled at Jade, “Mother, where is my cell phone?!”“Here.” Jade pointed at the coffee table in the living room.Jackson rushed downstairs and took his phone. He saw that there was an answ

    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
