Xavier pinched Sean's arm tentatively and thought that Yasmine was right. Sean had very strong arms.When they got home, Xavier looked around and was fairly satisfied with what he saw. "Mr. Lawson…" Taylor had just done arranging the children's things when he saw Sean taking his shoes off in the foyer, still with Xavier in his arms. He smiled and greeted Xavier, "Good evening, little Yasmine!" Xavier raised his eyebrows. He looked adorably stern as he said, "I'm Xavier! Yasmine is my little sister." Taylor was surprised, his eyes widened. Xavier was the elder brother, and Yasmine was the younger sister. They were twins.This meant that Angeline's children had been fine from the start.When Taylor saw Angeline with a little girl at the airport previously, he had suspected that she had adopted a child. Now that he had seen Yasmine's twin older brother, Taylor immediately grasped the situation. They were both the children of Angeline and Sean. When Xavier saw Taylor's exp
"No." Xavier turned on the tap. Sean heard the sound of water running and stood uncertainly in the doorway.Then he heard the water stop, and there was the sound of Xavier pushing the stool across the floor inside. He knocked again. "Can I come in?" "Yes." Sean pushed the door open and entered. He saw Xavier, who looked damp and soft, rather like a tiny marshmallow. He had wrapped himself up in a little hooded bath towel printed with bears and had a matching hat. He looked like a newborn bear cub but with a cool expression. "Can I help you?" asked Sean. "It's dangerous for children to use hairdryers by themselves. I'll dry your hair," said Sean. He plugged the hairdryer in and began to blow Xavier's hair. Xavier's hair was a mess. He looked up and watched the man in the mirror, who had his head lowered as he turned Xavier's head around with his large, powerful hands. His grip was firm but not too strong, and it felt rather comfortable. When Xavier's hair was dry and he h
"Ms. Emmerson, Tommy has paid back the money he owed this time. I don't know where he got so much money, but he borrowed again…" Billy's voice traveled over the phone. Angeline wasn't surprised. Tommy must have used the funds that were meant for the production of that batch of drugs. After all, she had specially instructed Billy to remind Tommy to use those funds first and return the money when he won it back from gambling. No one would know. Tommy hadn't had the guts to do so the last time, so he had chosen to steal the prescription. Angeline hadn't made a fuss out of that because she wanted Tommy to feel that he was safe whilst in the grip of his gambling addiction. That way, he could be forced into a corner again. As long as Tommy was in a desperate situation, he would think about using that money even without Billy mentioning it. He would think that he would be able to win it back at gambling and just return the money quietly. That was the typical gambler's mindset. A
"Please, Ingrid!" Carmen said while tugging Ingrid's hand. "Your uncle is still in the hospital undergoing surgery. I know Tommy had botched things up this time, but… the money is gone now, thanks to this idiot. "Could you call Mr. Fletcher and see if he has any idea how to escape this sticky situation?" Ingrid bit her lips. She thought she could use this opportunity to contribute to Fletcher Corporation so the Fletchers would view the Yates in a new light. After all, Sherryn had always looked down on Ingrid and the Yates family, believing they only brought trouble to Ned. However, Ingrid never expected that they somehow managed to cause trouble to Ned. If Sherryn found out about this, she would be more disappointed in her. "Please, Ingrid. Just call Ned. It's the only way we can get out of this! I'm begging you," Tommy pleaded and raised his right hand. "I swear that I'm never going to gamble again! I promise! So please, Ingrid, save our family!" Seeing Tommy beg this persis
The fuming Ned hung up and quickly called the company executives for an emergency meeting.Ned sat at the center of the meeting table with a stoic face, not saying a word.The executives, on the other hand, were debating non-stop on this sudden occurrence."Great, what did I say? We shouldn't have eyed Vitality Biotech Group's cure for cancer or whatever medicines they're trying to make. We shouldn't have signed the contract with them.""The ship had already sailed. It's pointless for you to still talk about this right now. What we should do right now is to find someone to take over this order!" "It's no use regardless of who we find to take over the order. There's no time to buy new equipment." "We can just use the equipment from Yates Group. Since they're the ones who used up the fund and breached the contract! Can they even compensate the loss according to the contract?""According to the contract, we can't afford to compensate Vitality Biotech Group too! So, how about we d
As Vitality Biotech Group's laboratory and research data were not in Marvonia, Eric was fearless in confronting the Marvonian representative directly. Angeline had said that at worst, they could just withdraw themselves from the Marvonia market.Angeline switched off the television and looked at the photos Yasmine sent from a few days ago. Sean and Robert had been taking care of Yasmine these days. Because Yasmine loved the amusement park after they visited one, Robert decided to build one for her. Angeline rubbed her temples and was about to say something. But she stopped when Robert said, "But Sean loves it, too!" Perhaps Angeline wasn't old enough to understand why the elderlies always unconditionally pampered their grandchildren. Since she couldn't outargue Robert, she could only accept that Yasmine would be getting an amusement park from Robert. "Ding dong!"The doorbell rang. Angeline stood up to get to the door and saw Sherryn standing outside. Angeline was surpris
Sherryn didn't want to stay longer with Angeline. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Are you saying this because you're worried that we will fight you for custody of the kids?" "Please, Mrs. Fletcher. Like I said, if you want a paternity test, I'll gladly cooperate!" Angeline did a quick math before continuing, "Right now, Yasmine is with my husband. If you want to do a paternity test, we can do it in about… 20 days. You're free to call me after that." Angeline wondered if Sherryn would still be in the mood to talk about the paternity test after 20 days.Seeing how determined Angeline was, Sherryn couldn't decide what to do. She let out a sigh and said, "Angie, since you said the kids aren't Ned's, how about you leave Oceanford and never come back for all of our sake?" "I'm going to decline that request, Mrs. Fletcher. I have my life planning," Angeline replied. Sherryn couldn't hold her temper and shouted in an ordering voice, "Then change your stupid life plan!" Angeline ch
Sherryn saw Ingrid sitting in the living room as soon as she entered the Fletcher residence.Sherryn vented on Ingrid, "Why are you here?" Ingrid quickly put down her glass of water and stood up to greet, "Hello, Mrs. Fletcher." Ingrid thought Sherryn was mad at her because of the Yates family and explained, "I went to Fletcher Corporation, and Ned wasn't there. I thought he was back home, so I came to wait for him. "I wanted to know if there's anything Yates Group could help since it's Tommy who screwed up to begin with. I'm worried that something would go wrong with Ned's and Vitality Biotech Group's contract." Shocked, Sherryn shouted, "What did Tommy do again?" The confused Ingrid stared at Sherryn and stuttered, "I-It's about Yates Group's fund. Something went wrong with our working capital." Although Sherryn wasn't involved with the company's affair anymore, that didn't mean she hadn't caught up on its situation. When Fletcher Corporation signed the contract with V
