Jackson told Yvonne what had happened and did not hide anything. He did not know what kind of judgment he would face, and he also did not expect Yvonne to forgive him. He only hoped that she would not forbid him from seeing his children. “So you’re saying that she worked with Ella to drug you so that she could get pregnant with your babies?”Yvonne looked at Jackson in shock. She did not expect that Jackson would tell her everything. From her perception of him, Jackson would always find ways to hide these sorts of matters and not let her know anything about them.Jackson nodded. “I can’t remember what happened that night. Only Fiona will know the truth. I’m guessing that she did something to me when I was unconscious, which is why she’s pregnant now.”Yvonne felt uncomfortable when she knew that Fiona did such a shameless thing to Jackson.“Jackson has nothing to do with me anymore. He can be with who he wants.’ Yvonne shook her head and tried to ignore the discomfort she was fee
“You don’t have to worry about this. If the child is willing to see you, I’ll not stop both of you from meeting!”At night, after Sandra and Wesley came home, Yvonne told them about how Fiona had schemed against Jackson and got herself pregnant. Sandra was very angry when she heard about it. “How can someone this shameless exist in this world?”“Like mother, like daughter. Susan once schemed against your mother the same way. Now, she has passed her skills to her daughter.” Wesley was very angry.“Whenever I think about it, I get angry too. Susan snatched your mother’s husband away and now that little b*tch is trying to snatch yours. They really think that it’s easy to bully us, huh?” Sandra could not control herself and cursed out when she heard what Wesley said.“Remember to take care of your image!” Yvonne smiled and Sandra stuck out her tongue. “I’m just very angry.”Wesley sighed. “Jackson is unlucky. He already has a mother like that yet he met a disgusting woman as well. N
“Jade won’t agree to it.” Sandra sighed.“If Jackson has the heart to do it, then there’s no way Jade will be able to stop him.” “You’re right.” Sandra nodded. “Anyway, how’s the investigation on Susan going?”“I’ve looked into it. That beauty salon is owned by someone named Hannah Drago. Both Hannah and Susan came from Cat Lane and there’s nothing else suspicious about it. Besides, Susan hasn’t been visiting that place recently.” “How did it end up like this?” Sandra sighed disappointedly. “I thought that we would finally have something that we can use against that b*tch, but there isn’t much progress at all.”“Not necessarily. As long as we pay close attention to things, then we’ll definitely be able to catch her. You don’t have to worry too much about it.”After parting ways with Zachary, Sandra went back to the TV station. When she got off work, she was stopped by Pearlie at the entrance of the TV station. “You’re Sandra Willis, right? I’d like to have a talk with you.”“
Sandra turned and left after she finished speaking. She started the engine and saw Pearlie standing still from the rear-view mirror. Sandra snorted. ‘The young lady of a rich family? It’s all just for show. Only Yvonne would not want to fight back with this kind of person. She’s unlucky that she met me this time.’She was humming along to songs while she drove. On her way, she thought about the situation and gave Zachary a call. “Your fiancée stopped me at the entrance of the TV station and warned me not to have any thoughts about you.”“Really?” Zachary laughed. It turned out Pearlie had gone to look for Sandra, and according to Sandra’s attitude, she would not have treated Pearlie nicely. He was very curious about how Sandra treated her. “How did you deal with her?”“What do you mean? I was so scared that I cried and immediately called you to complain.”“Geez! Are you the kind of person who gets scared?”"Haha, you don’t believe me? In fact, I don’t believe that I can be scared
"I don't know if Yvonne will turn me into a bad person but I think I know why you're so emotional about it, Mom. Don't worry, I won't touch a single penny of your share." Jackson sneered."Is that the way to talk to your mother? I’m not doing it solely for money! And my money is your money!”"I wouldn't dare to ask for your property. If I could, I would choose to have been born into a different family. That way, at least I wouldn't experience the pain of being used by my own mother.""When did I use you for anything?" Jade felt guilty. She did not know what her son meant by that. ‘Does it mean he knows something?’ After thinking about it, she thought that Fiona would not be so stupid to tell her son about the pregnancy at this time. Hence, she was emboldened and retorted with a bluff."Let me ask you a question, then. How was Fiona's baby conceived?" When Jackson saw how his mother was still trying to dodge the question, he could not hold it in any longer."You found out? Of cours
Fiona started to get scared. She could not believe that Jackson would say that and ignore Jade’s feelings. It seemed that her last barrier of protection was gone and she was in danger.‘No, I can’t let this happen.’ Jackson had already found out the truth but Jared was not investigating to find out who was the one who leaked the information to him, so she did not have to worry about Jared punishing her for now. Hence, Fiona decided to go to see Yvonne.Yvonne was bringing Leo for a walk outside when a woman with a pair of sunglasses and a hat came toward her and Leo. When the woman in front of them suddenly stopped her and called out to her, Yvonne realized that it was Fiona.Yvonne looked at Fiona, appearing to be in a bad mood. "Ms. Summers, why did you stop me?”"I have something I need to talk to you about. Let’s go over there to talk about it.” Fiona was being sneaky."I'm busy." Yvonne outright refused her."Sister, I'm pregnant! I’m begging you, please help me! I'm despera
"You hate me because of my mom, right? Yvonne, wise up a little. It’s your own stupid short-lived mother’s fault that she couldn’t control her own man. You shouldn’t hate me just because of that. I mean, everything happens for a reason. If he really was in the right, none of this would’ve happened. How could you betray your own sister for this man? Yvonne, mark my words. You’ll be punished for this." Fiona knew Yvonne's weakness and touched on her sore spot on purpose.Yvonne was so angry with Fiona that she could not hold back and gave her a slap on the face. Fiona covered her face and did not fight back. Her eyes were fiercely fixed on Yvonne's stomach. She could not attack Yvonne first, so she knew she had to provoke Yvonne to make the first strike in order for her to get away with pushing Yvonne. That way, no one would suspect her of anything."Look at your son, getting sick at such a young age. As his mother, it’s all your—”Before she could finish her sentence, a voice sounded
"Mom, if you can get rid of Sandra, why don't you deal with Yvonne as well? It’ll save me a lot of time!""We can't touch her now. One move and everything will be ruined. But Sandra is a nobody and she’s not rich. Dealing with her is like squishing an ant!" Susan's face was full of resentment."I knew you would say that." Fiona took out her phone and handed it to Susan. "Take a look and tell me what you think.”Susan unlocked the phone and watched the video which was recorded, a wicked smile gradually appearing on her face. "Not bad. Your acting is pretty good, but don't take such risks next time. If Yvonne had laid a finger on your stomach, it’d be a bigger loss for you.”"I know. I was afraid that Yvonne would do something to my babies too, so I tied some pieces of sponge on top of my stomach." Fiona was quite proud of herself. "When the time comes, show this video to dad. When he sees Yvonne beating me up so viciously, we’ll see what he has to say."When Jared heard that Fiona
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
