His son! He quickly walked to Leo and squatted down. The moment he placed his hand on Leo’s face, the air became stagnant and time stopped. The only thing left in the world was his heartbeat, which was so violent that it was about to jump out of his chest.

Jackson gently stroked Leo's face. His delicate skin, his pale face, and those dark shimmering eyes...

The corners of his lips twitched unnaturally. This was his son, this was him and Yvonne’s son.

Old Madam Turner sighed. Branches were being stretched out after all.

“Old Madam…” Yvonne wanted to greet her but she saw Jackson who was dressed in a casual outfit, and her face turned pale.

Yosef noticed his presence and took a step forward. He nodded at Jackson and hugged Yvonne by the shoulder. “Do not worry, I am here.”

When his voice sounded, she instantly felt relieved, and she stood up straight and looked at him. "Why are you here?"

Even this sentence made her feel uncomfortable.

Jackson stood up and looked at her, with r

    Yvonne nodded without saying anything.“Good, I will bring Leo for a DNA test tomorrow. Everything will be decided based on the test!”“What right do you have? He is my son, so why should I allow you to bring him for a DNA test?” Yvonne refuted.“Are you feeling guilty?” Jackson sneered. “What exactly are you afraid of?“What am I afraid of? My child is sick. He can’t face any disturbances!”“Really? How about that unborn child of yours? As far as I know, you are pregnant now. Do you dare to swear the child is not mine?” Jackson aggressively said. “Yvonne, things have already escalated until this point, there is no point in concealing the truth. I already know what I should have known a long time ago!”“Mommy, what does concealing mean?”“This…” Yvonne did not know how to answer Leo. Jackson stared at her. “Yvonne, are you able to tell Leo who I am to him with a clear conscience?” ‘Whose fault was it back then which led to the situation turning out like this today?’Yvonne’

    “Do you think you are being reasonable, Jackson Miller?” “What right do you have to make such a decision?” Yvonne questioned, her voice quivering in anger. “I have every right to do so because I am Leo’s father!” “Father? Do you not feel embarrassed saying that? Who was it who threw me out of the house at the time? After you left me with nothing from the divorce, my child and I have had nothing to do with you!” Yvonne retorted. “Yvonne, I have already explained what happened back then; I was left with no other choice!” Jackson clenched both of his fists, and green veins began to appear as well, which indicated that he was feeling extremely conflicted. What happened back then was an unbearable anguish for him. In the past few years, he had not felt at ease for even the slightest moment. “Yes, you have your difficulties, but does it matter? Will you not be held accountable if you murder someone because of your problems?” Yvonne tried her hardest to keep her emotions in check, b

    Jackson would undoubtedly never give up if he discovered the truth. After seeing how he acted tonight, she was certain. What should she do if he persisted in this?Yosef gently pushed the door open and walked in. When he noticed Yvonne’s frown, he lowered his voice and comforted her. “You need not worry, Yvonne, I am by your side! Rest assured, everything will be fine!” Yvonne smiled at him and said, “Thank you, Yosef! I am truly fortunate to have you!” “Jackson is not a wicked person, he simply could not accept it at the moment. Everything will be fine once he figures it out!” Yosef continued. “Yosef, I understand. You must be exhausted after being busy all day. You should take a break, just having me here is enough!” The sight of his harrowed complexion moved Yvonne deeply. Yosef had to manage the company while looking after Leo. He was indeed weary throughout this period of time. Now that she has returned, she should return to the responsibility of looking after Leo. “Alr

    "I will not tell him that I am his father for the time being, but I will stay here to care for him. I was not previously involved in any aspects of his life. From now on, I am not going to miss a minute or a second of it!”“You!” Yvonne took on a ghastly expression. Jackson meant that he was determined about not leaving. She had been married to him for several years and was well aware of his pigheadedness. It seemed that this matter was not going to be so easily solved. Jackson insisted on staying by Leo’s side, so Yvonne had no choice but to return to her quarters for some rest. She had a restless night’s sleep and awoke early the next morning. As soon as she woke up, she hurried to Leo’s room, only to find Jackson assisting him in getting dressed. To her surprise, Leo was not afraid of him. Instead, he asked in a childlike tone, “Will you stay here with me from now on, Uncle Miller?” “Of course! From now on, Uncle Miller will be with you every single day!” Leo could not believ

    Jackson became slightly deranged as he watched Yosef leave, muttering darkly, “If it had not been for the fact that you have taken such good care of my wife and child, I would have beaten you to death, Turner!” “You are quite the impressive one, President Miller!” Yvonne sneered. Jackson turned around, and all of a sudden his face flushed when he saw Yvonne. He smiled hollowly and asked, “Yvonne, has Leo fallen asleep already?” “Why bother asking when you already know!” Yvonne glared at him. “Jackson, I am warning you. Yosef and I will not make any adjustments just because you are staying here now, so do not get any strange ideas!” Jackson’s face turned pale all of a sudden. Yvonne seemed unconcerned about him and went straight into the kitchen. She needed to make pork congee for Leo so he could eat it as soon as he woke up. Jackson stood in the living room for quite some time before he brazenly followed her into the kitchen. “Do you need my help, Yvonne?” “No need!” Yvonne

    James agreed, and said to Jackson, “Ella Pearson will arrive in the United States soon. Her plane leaves tomorrow.” “Got it!” Jackson answered. South City. Ella packed her luggage and looked at Roxanne, who seemed reluctant to let her leave. She thought, ‘I am not sure how long it will be before I return from abroad this time.’ “I am going to miss you, mother!” “My sweet child, I will miss you too!” Roxanne’s face also showed a hint of trepidation. The person in front of her was a difficult one, and she never hesitated while dealing with a difficult situation. It was simply because the show must go on. “I will take time off to visit you. Even if I do not have time to see you as frequently as I would wish, we can always chat online or video call now that the internet is so advanced.” Roxanne’s reluctance was alleviated by Ella’s comforting, and the two of them went to the airport together. Roxanne drove while advising her on things to look out for when traveling overseas.

    Ella was no fool. She could tell that something was going wrong from the conversation earlier. When Lawrence ended his call and turned around, he saw Ella standing at the door. His facial expression became stiff, and his fake smile had disappeared.“Who the h*ll are you?”“A man!” He approached her with a sinister smile. “Little beauty, since you have heard everything, I will not keep things from you. I am not your mother’s friend. I am just someone who will earn money from taking your life! Since you are beautiful, I pitied you and decided to keep you alive. You should appreciate it.”Ella was completely frightened, to the point where her legs were trembling. “Why?”“How would I know?” Lawrence sneered. “Ninth Brother will be here soon. You better behave yourself. Perhaps you can live for a few more days if you make him happy. If not……”‘This is terrible!’ Without waiting for him to finish, Ella turned around and ran away immediately, but Lawrence followed behind her! Ella stumbl

    When Yosef was about to head home after he finished his work, the phone rang. One of the factory managers said to Yosef on the phone, “An accident happened in the factory, please come over as soon as possible!”Yosef was startled. He immediately got up and headed to the factory. He was anxious all the way, and he kept telling his driver to drive faster. When they passed by a secluded path, the driver exclaimed.“Boss, look!”The driver applied the emergency brake, and Yosef was startled when he saw the scene. Within two meters from their car, a woman covered in blood was lying on the road. “Let us go to have a look!” Yosef came to his senses quickly and was first to open the door.“It does not seem like she is breathing anymore.” The driver turned over the injured person’s head carefully and checked her breath with his hands. Yosef was surprised when he saw the injured person’s face. “How could it be her?”“You know her?”“Yes! Her body is still warm, let us take her to the hospi

    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

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!

    “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
