[Is this Yannie? Am I seeing things?][Why is Yannie in Thomas' bedroom? Are they not just professionals working together?][I saw the stretch marks on Yannie's belly! She did give birth to a child after all!][If she already has a child, how dare she pretend to be an onscreen couple with Thomas? How dare she waited for him in his bedroom, wearing just that?][How shameless of her! Quit the entertainment industry!]…Only just by seeing Yannie standing in Thomas' bedroom in her underwear, the people watching the live stream went off the roof as they made various scathing remarks about Yannie.Wendy took a rough glance, and upon seeing the insults aimed at Yannie, she was instantly excited. This was the effect that she wanted!She wanted Yannie's ugliest side to be exposed to everyone. She wanted Thomas to hate Yannie, to despise her.Moreover, at that moment, everything was right before their eyes. Even if Thomas did not hate Yannie, he could not stop the people on the interne
However, only Joshua had been helping Yannie deal with her news since that morning.Thomas' team did nothing.Of course, it did not matter that much. After all, Joshua's men had settled everything.At this moment, however, Thomas seemed to not know anything about this live footage and the comments about Yannie. It was too strange."Don't care about whether it's strange or not." Gwen furrowed her brow and passed Luna her phone. "Don't you have Thomas' number? Call him to let him know. Get him to settle the secret live stream first."Luna pursed her lips and looked at the phone in her hands. She hesitated for a moment before quickly looking for Thomas' contact and called him.…The moment Luna dialed him, Thomas' phone rang in the live stream, too.His eyebrows pressed together as he took out his phone to have a look. When he saw that it was Luna, he furrowed his brow. His eyes flashed with mild confusion and irritation, but he picked up the call. "Can I help you?"His cold tone
Thomas' words instantly froze the atmosphere, both offline and online.No one on the live stream dared to say anything. Everyone was baffled, thinking that they had heard wrongly.Even Yannie, who was in his arms, thought so too.She was rooted on the spot for a long time and was unable to believe what she was hearing. She could not believe what was happening.Did Thomas truly know that she had his child, or was he merely trying to help her?"I—Impossible!"Wendy was the first one to come to her senses. She rushed toward Thomas like a lunatic as she incredulously hissed, "Thomas, are you mad? Is this worth it for a woman like Yannie? Yannie could earn money for you, but I could do it too! Also, I've been fighting my way through the entertainment industry for many years! Many on the internet wish for us to become a couple."As long as you're willing to work with me, and as long as you're willing to become an onscreen couple with me, I know I'll earn more than Yannie ever will!"
Still, Wendy steeled herself from overreacting. "Thomas, you don't need to sacrifice yourself like that! You…""You still don't believe me?" Thomas let go of Yannie, who was rather dizzy and lacking oxygen, and smiled. "Will you only believe me when I show you my daughter with Yannie?"I'm warning you: Yannie is my woman, and she has been since a year ago. She gave birth to a child three months ago, yes, and she's also mine. Also, our child isn't dead. Our child has been always under the care of Joshua Lynch and Luna."If you don't believe me, you can go and ask them!"Yannie, who was in his arms, stiffened upon hearing what he said. She was unsure whether he knew about the matter a year ago or if he was making it up to protect her.She was not even sure, like what Thomas said, that Riley was their daughter. She was not sure at all.Yannie's mind was in a mess, so much so that she could not think.If Riley was her daughter, what would happen to Luna?"Anything else that you wis
Wendy's expression twisted upon hearing Yannie's question, biting her lip as she did. "I have no idea what you're talking about, Yannie. I don't know any Dr. Camila."Wendy's words were contradicting.Yannie furrowed her brow. "But you just said that you saw my information from Dr. Camila, Ms. Fann, and that my child should be three years old by now."Wendy panicked. She turned to look at Yannie, then at Thomas, who had his hands crossed around his chest, eager to watch things unfold. She clenched her fists tightly."I said that I saw the documents from the news this morning. That's how I found out that your child is already three months old! I don't know any Dr. Camila!"Yannie furrowed her brow at this response. She remembered that the news on the internet that morning did expose the details of her previous stay in the hospital.Wendy had always disliked her. It was not impossible for Wendy to pay more attention to such news of hers.At that thought, Yannie pursed her lips and
"While it looks like I've known Yannie for more than a month or so, we've been together for more than a year. For the past year, Yannie had been hiding from me, thinking that she wasn't worthy of me and bore my child silently. It was also because of her and the child that I came all the way to Merchant City."You said that you're no worse than Yannie. I admit that you are much better than Yannie in many aspects, but…"Thomas walked over to Yannie, who was still in a daze, and hugged her. He said calmly, "Yannie has something that you don't."Dazed, Wendy looked at Thomas with confusion in her eyes. "What is it?"Thomas smiled and gently touched the stretch marks on Yannie's belly. "She has this."His voice was charming and sincere. "This happened because she gave birth to my child. This was proof of her sacrifice for me and my child."Thoma's words completely shattered Wendy's pride.Biting her lip, she tried to refute, to come up with an argument when all of a sudden, her phone
Yannie failed to catch Thomas' meaning. She furrowed her brow and turned to look at him with confusion.Looking at her small face, Thomas found himself softening at the sight.He sighed and reached out his hand, gently pinching her small nose. "Enough; don't think about Wendy and Joshua. We have more important things to do."Yannie furrowed her brow. "And that is?"Thomas sighed. He lowered his gaze and looked at Yannie, who was clad only in underwear in his arms.At the thought of her petite body shown to the people on the internet, he could not help but get furious. "Firstly, put on your clothes."Yannie shrieked in realization and quickly turned, burying herself under the sheets.She was so wrapped up in defending herself against Wendy and her venomous remarks that she completely forgot that she was only in lingerie!When Thomas pointed it out, she instantly blushed.She bit her lip. "I…I didn't want this to happen, but when I woke up, I realized that I was locked in your b
The pure white top and the mint green skirt only enhanced Yannie's beauty. She looked like a little fairy that had walked out of a forest.Having been in the entertainment industry for so many years, Thomas has seen all sorts of beautiful women, but at this moment, he was completely dazzled by Yannie's beauty.He was silent for a while before looking away, gently clearing his throat. "I don't know who Riley's biological mother is, but from today onward, you're her mother."From the moment he told Wendy that Yannie's child was his, he had already planned to have Yannie be Riley's mother.Despite not visiting Riley for the past month, he knew that Yannie had often gone to visit her, so he placed a camera on Yannie, wanting to see his daughter through Yannie.That way, he could see Yannie through the camera and not catch Joshua's attention.However, he never expected that Yannie would adore Riley the way she did, and her love for the infant was palpable.Since he could not find Ril
