For some reason, Yvonne felt a lump in her throat."Yvonne, this isn't just a responsibility. It's an expectation," Jean said.Her eyes, along with the others', were filled with sincerity. "I believe you can do it. Through this Intangible Cultural Heritage Promotional Event, you'll bring these work
"How dare this kind of guy compete with you for a woman? He clearly doesn't know his place."Shane shook his head in disbelief.Everyone could see how ordinary Harold looked. He would never be able to provide for someone like Yvonne, who'd been pampered her whole life."If the Jamison family hadn't
"Who else could Yvonne possibly choose, if not me?" Jared was confident.For some reason, Anthony's mood soured upon hearing Jared's words. Before the Jamison family's downfall, Yvonne had many suitors surrounding her.When Anthony lifted his gaze again, his expression had returned to calm. "Who els
Yvonne could clearly see the mockery in Selena's eyes."No need," she replied flatly. She didn't like the pearls anyway.In fact, she and Selena had known each other for many years. Since Selena was Jared's sister, Yvonne had tried to be friendly, even making an effort to get along. However, she'd a
"Thank you, Professor Weedle," Selena said, but her smile barely masked her condescension.In comparison, the two friends beside her seemed to be mere accessories to Selena, lacking in all areas."Professor Weedle, we've all signed up for the Jeriton City Jewelry Design Competition. Given your autho
The thought of Yvonne having to go through a breakup and losing her job at the same time made Jared's heart ache for her.His mumbling startled Shirley, who was walking in with a cup of coffee. Her hands trembled, causing the coffee to spill.Was Jared going to bring Yvonne back? What about her then
"Yvonne, have you heard about this year's Jewelry Design Competition in Jeriton City?" Jean asked suddenly as they enjoyed some fruits for dessert.Yvonne nodded. "I heard about it while working on the exhibition. I think the rules state that designers who have already signed with a company aren't a
Yvonne booked a table at a high-end restaurant. She arrived early and ordered drinks for them, all in line with proper dining etiquette. Samuel arrived precisely on time."Good evening, Mr. Hover.""Good evening to you too, Ms. Jamison." Samuel returned Yvonne's greeting, looking at her with gentle
The moment Luther spoke, hostility sparked between him and Jared.Jared had a dark, dangerous look on his face. "Do you think you can take my place as long as you keep pestering Yvvy?"Luther walked over to stand in front of him, smiled, and said nothing. He simply kept drinking his wine.However, i
When Yvonne finally got home, she placed Andrew's posthumous work in the best spot in her workshop."Sorry it took so long for me to return to the design world you loved so much, Dad. From now on, you can watch me gradually grow here."Although she'd spent the night in the hospital yesterday, she wa
Jared started firing off a barrage of questions at Yvonne. "You still haven't told me why you didn't come home last night. Did Isabel arrange another place for you to stay so that you could avoid me on purpose? "You have no idea how worried I was! I didn't sleep the entire night. You just want me t
There was a hint of self-deprecation in Yvonne's words, and Isabel couldn't help inwardly cursing out Jared when she picked up on it."It's all in the past," she told Yvonne reassuringly. "It won't happen again."Yvonne hummed in acknowledgement.Was it truly all in the past though?After successful
"Alright," Yvonne said at last.She glanced at the clock, then poured a glass of water and placed the medicine that Samuel needed to take on the table. "You should take a day off from work today, Mr. Hover. Please take the medicine and get some more rest.""Okay," Samuel said agreeably. Just as he t
Yvonne was still very concerned when she saw Samuel's weak appearance. In the end, she could only make the worst choice available."How can I be comfortable leaving with you like this, Mr. Hover?""It's alright. I'm not very hungry anyway," said Samuel.However, he pressed his hand to his stomach as
"Are you getting changed to go out for a walk, Mr. Hover?" asked Yvonne."I'm heading home. I can't stay in the hospital for too long," replied Samuel, standing up before pausing and asking, "Will you be able to help me, Ms. Jamison? Is your ankle alright now?"Yvonne walked over to support him. "My
Jared felt like he was really about to lose control.He regretted leaving Yvonne behind, and he was equally worried about what she'd experienced today.Yet, when he thought about the possibility that Yvonne had already taken Andrew's posthumous work, his heart felt as if it was being swallowed by a
Isabel was trying to uncover Samuel's lies.It turned out that even men could be incredibly scheming in relationships."Aren't you being too paranoid?" asked Yvonne, still attempting to defend Samuel. "Mr. Hover kept asking me to go home and rest just now, and I was the one who insisted on remaining
