Chapter 103

Author: Beanie Gold
Not wanting to listen to Xavier anymore, Yvette slammed her cutlery on the table. "I'm full." She stood up and started to walk away.

Only then did Xavier realize that she was mad. He quickly got up and grabbed her wrist. "Why are you angry?" he asked.

Yvette pulled her hand away. "I'm not angry. Mr. Lane, you're absolutely right. My friend and I are the ones who lack skills. Otherwise, your people wouldn't have been able to throw her in jail for a day."

Clearly, she was angry.

Xavier had to lower his pride and explain, "I didn't know that the lawyer Daphne had mentioned was your friend."

Yvette listened in silence.

For the first time, Xavier was at a loss for what to do. He could only try to placate her. "Tell me how I can make up for her being locked up. Should I have someone apologize to her?"

Yvette was surprised to hear this but didn't get a chance to respond as a cough came from the door.

Mark was standing there with shock written all over his face.

    "My apologies, sir." Mark had always known his place. He had only spoken up this time because he didn't want Xavier to have any regrets in the future.After all, he was the one who knew best just how much Xavier had changed during the years Yvette had been missing.Xavier didn't blame him. After Mark left, Xavier returned to the room.Yvette had just received a call from Kiki, who informed her that she had been released late last night."Yvvy, did you meet up with Xavier?" Kiki asked. She had sensed that something was off since Yvette hadn't answered her calls the night before."Yes, I talked to him about it yesterday," Yvette admitted without hiding anything."Did he give you a hard time?" Kiki asked anxiously."He didn't." Yvette saw Xavier coming back into the room. "I'll talk to you later." Then, she hung up the phone."Who called?" Xavier asked as he strode into the room."My friend, Kiki," Yvette replied. As she stood up, she looked at Xavier and asked, "Where's Noah? I

    "You mean Xavier brought Noah here?" Kiki was stunned when she heard about Noah."It's true, but I don't know where he's taken Noah." Yvette's eyes were filled with worry. "And he already knows I was faking my amnesia. I'll be living at his place from now on, so I need you to take care of Zac. You mustn't let Xavier find out about him.""Don't worry, I'll make sure to hide Zac well," Kiki confidently assured her.Suddenly, she thought of a possibility. "Yvvy, do you think he's fallen for you? Why else would he want you to stay at Dewberry Manor?" she asked.Yvette was taken aback but quickly dismissed the idea. "Daphne was right about one thing—if someone doesn't love you, they never will. Why would he start liking me just because I was gone for a few years?"Kiki mulled over it for a moment, still feeling frustrated. "Xavier is such a jerk. He doesn't love you, yet he's keeping you tied down."Yvette patted Kiki's hand. "Let's not talk about this anymore. It's Friday today; le

    Malcolm's disdain for Daphne likely stemmed from his mother constantly telling him that Daphne wanted to have Xavier's child and compete for the future head position of the Lane family.Zachary put down his book and looked over with his beautiful eyes. "What's the plan?"At that question, the two other boys looked at each other, wide-eyed.Malcolm moved closer to Zachary, pouting slightly. "Zac, what do you think we should do?"Zachary knew they didn't have any plans at all. However, he had already thought of one.He leaned in and shared his plan with the two boys, who listened intently, getting more excited by the minute.Just then, a little girl came over to the trio. "Zac, what are you guys talking about?"Malcolm gently pushed her aside. "Go away. Don't disturb us men when we're talking business."The little girl pouted, almost on the verge of tears.…Meanwhile, a minivan drove down the road. Daphne had just finished touching up her makeup when her assistant, Laura Win

    "Poor Daphne! A famous celebrity like her came to pick up the Lane family's child, only to end up getting pranked!""It sure isn't easy to join a wealthy family. Even a big shot celebrity like her has to curry favor with her boyfriend's nephew.""Tsk, tsk. What's so bad about being an independent woman? Is her income from being a celebrity not enough? Why does she have to rely on marrying into a wealthy family?""People are never satisfied."Everyone was talking.Kiki finally understood what was going on—Daphne was here!She squeezed through the crowd and stood on tiptoe, only to see several bodyguards escorting a drenched Daphne to a minivan. Kiki couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Even someone like Daphne got pranked. Serves her right!"As soon as Daphne left, the crowd gradually dispersed.Kiki was still wondering where Zachary was when she heard a voice calling, "Aunt Kiki.""Darren? Why haven't you gone home yet?" Kiki asked, seeing Darren with his shirt off and smiling

    Shannon hung up on Daphne before the latter could explain herself.She clenched her fists in anger. That brat, Malcolm, must have tattled on her!Thinking it over, she realized her fall had to be connected to those kids. How could the kindergarten hallway have been that slippery? And how much of a coincidence was it that Malcolm and another kid had come by with a bucket of mop water just as she had fallen, resulting in it splashing all over her?She hadn't expected to be outsmarted by a brat. The next time she saw Malcolm, she wouldn't let him off so easily.Just as she was fuming, she received a call from Kelly. "We're in trouble, Daph. Your song 'A Sliver of Light' is being sued for plagiarism. It's all over the internet.""I thought we resolved this," Daphne said, confused."Nothing's resolved. Check it out yourself. Your song is 99% identical to a song Ms. Cameron released four years ago," Kelly replied, sounding frantic. "People are saying that you not only plagiarized b

    Yvette had dinner at Kiki's house and chatted with her for a long time. When it started to get late, she took a car back to Dewberry Manor. She didn't want Zachary to worry, so she asked Kiki not to tell him about her current living situation at Dewberry Manor or about Noah.Zachary had actually already sensed something was off with Yvette today. Being the considerate child he was, he didn't ask her about it directly; instead, he planned to subtly get information from Kiki.Meanwhile, Xavier had returned to Dewberry Manor from the company at 5:00 pm. He sat on the living room couch. There was a delicate gift box on the coffee table in front of him.The hour hand on the Oshtran-style wall clock struck 10. It was already 10:00 pm, yet Yvette hadn't come back yet.Xavier had never waited for anyone so long. He pulled at his tie in frustration, his handsome eyebrows furrowed.He picked up the gift box with his slender, elegant hand. He had been checking its contents repeatedly to ma

    Xavier was taken aback. Hadn't she said that she liked jewelry?"Are you sure?" Xavier asked, his expression gradually turning cold.Seeing his reaction now, Yvette was sure that he had forgotten what she had said before."I'll accept gifts from anyone but you. I don't want anything from you!" After saying that, she pushed past Xavier and went upstairs.As Xavier watched Yvette's cold figure, he threw the gift box into the trash. Since he had a cold and hadn't eaten all night, his stomach started to ache.He didn't know what was wrong with him today. When he had seen the luxurious bracelet one of the clients had sent, he had recalled what Yvette had said when she had been pretending to have amnesia."I can tell you very clearly that I like putting on makeup, and I also like bright and pretty clothes and jewelry."He sure was embarrassing himself. Xavier's face grew darker, and he angrily sat back on the couch.Unlike her past self, Yvette no longer tried to appease him. She wen

    Instead of stopping, Xavier sneered. "Looks like Claude doesn't love you very much. How long has he been neglecting you?"This time, Yvette was genuinely provoked. As she regained her senses and raised her hand to strike him again, Xavier seized her wrist."Hit a nerve there, didn't I?" Xavier asked.Yvette had no intention of explaining to him. She and Claude had just been friends over the years."You're not being very picky about your food either. Is it because Daphne doesn't love you as well?"Xavier wasn't the only one who knew how to pick a fight.Xavier mocked, "I'm different from you." He had never touched Daphne.Yvette laughed at that. "What's the difference? We're the same. You think you're better than me? I always thought you were a loyal lover, but it seems like that's not the case. Does Daphne know what you've done?"Xavier wasn't angry at all. He didn't answer; he only held Yvette firmly against his chest.In return, Yvette bit hard into his shoulder. Xavier gasp

    When Jeana found out, she clicked her tongue and said, "How shameless. She's already divorced from Xav and yet is still sleeping together."Yvette heard murmuring outside and got up to check it out. She saw Jeana and a few maids badmouthing her.She was speechless. What could Xavier possibly do to her in his current state?"You don't like me sleeping with Xavier. How about you take my place?" Yvette stood upstairs and spoke loudly.Upon hearing this, Jeana's expression shifted immediately.If she were to sleep next to Xavier, she definitely wouldn't live to see the sunrise tomorrow."I'm not like you. I'm not married to Xav yet, so nothing will happen between us," Jeana said with feigned innocence.Yvette laughed. "Then, after you marry him, would you dare to share a bed with him and have something happen?"Jeana was at a loss for words once again. She stopped talking, went back to her room, and slammed the door shut.She couldn't wait to hear Yvette's screams tonight.During

    Kiki sat beside him and asked, "What exactly happened? Why was Mr. Shaw Senior so angry a couple of days ago, and what's going on with Xavier?""Just know that while I'm not a saint, I'm not a terribly wicked person either. But Jeremiah is a wolf in sheep's clothing, so make sure Yvette stays cautious," Tristan advised.Kiki rolled her eyes at him."As far as I know, Jeremiah has always been kind to Yvvy. When they were young, he often helped her and stood up for her when she was bullied. But you, when she just married Xavier, you were the one who bullied her the most!"Tristan was momentarily at a loss for words.That was because Kiki was right in pointing out that Tristan used to frequently bully Yvette.Yvette's hearing had worsened in both ears, and she currently relied on hearing aids until now.Tristan was filled with regret, and he understood that he could never make things right with Yvette. He had been researching ways to treat mild hearing loss but hadn't made much pro

    Yvette shook her head and said, "Not yet. His condition is still very unstable. Once Dad's health improves, I'll take you and Zachary to see him."Noah nodded obediently and said, "Alright. Go ahead. Ms. Wendy and Lily are at home. I'll be good.""Okay."Yvette listened to what Noah said and felt genuinely gratified. She was really thankful to have two such thoughtful children at such a young age.After soothing Noah, Yvette had the driver drive to the manor.She had just arrived and saw the nurses and doctor forcibly administering an injection to Xavier."What kind of injection is this?" Yvette immediately stepped forward."It's a sedative," Nathaniel replied with a stern expression. "Mr. Lane lost control again earlier and started hitting people."Yvette frowned. "Didn't I tell you? If he has an episode, just call me, and I'll come over right away."Nathaniel feigned a helpless look at Yvette. "That won't do. When Mr. Lane gets violent, he doesn't hold back at all. If we don

    Yvette immediately understood what Jacqueline meant. "Thank you so much. I'll cover all your losses personally.""You don't have to. Just continue working with me when you're in charge in the future."Jacqueline realized that Yvette was genuinely kind-hearted. In their collaboration, she found that she got a fair deal and even made more profit compared to working with others."Okay." Yvette didn't exchange any more pleasantries with her after that.Today's parent meeting had unexpectedly helped Yvette solve a big problem.She finally breathed a sigh of relief. She could now take a proper rest.First, she took care of Noah, and then she planned to go to the manor to visit Xavier.At home, Noah had already learned from Zachary's investigation that the manor was private property belonging to Jeremiah."Zac, I feel like it's not really a good thing for Mom, but if she wants to be with Jeremiah, I'll support her."Noah rested his head on his hand and said, "But Jeremiah is already

    Anne, thinking about her child at home, said, "I need to go back and check on my kid too."As the three people got ready to leave, Elena hesitated and stayed behind.Once they left, a few of the other moms also decided to leave.The remaining people seemed to want to get on Marlene's good side.Marlene also knew of this and told them, "Zayden will be returning to the main headquarters of Titan Corporation very soon.""Really? To what position?" Mia asked.Marlene smiled and said, "It has to be a high-ranking position.""Congratulations are definitely in order. Once Mr. Zayden returns to work at the headquarters, could you possibly help make some introductions?" Mia tentatively suggested.Elena made a point to remember everything that happened here so she could tell Yvette all about it.Elena felt that even if Yvette and Xavier were divorced, Yvette's life wouldn't be any worse than Marlene'sShe was determined to become friends with Yvette again, and she believed she was maki

    Upon learning of the situation, Jeremiah instructed Nathaniel to keep a close watch on Xavier's every move, especially when he was with Yvette.Nathaniel said, "Yvette also wants Mr. Xavier to be able to go out for walks."Jeremiah paused before replying, "As long as he doesn't leave the manor, he can go for a walk."Yvette could look at Xavier at any moment, and Jeremiah didn't want Yvette to have a negative impression of him."Understood."…As the end of the month approached at Titan Corporation, those with the lowest sales would be fired.Division Five had been performing well, but unfortunately, there were issues with the accounts. If the upper management or shareholders found out, it could become a significant problem.At that time, it was likely that Division Five, who were suspected of fraud, would be fired.Yvette had already arranged for someone to look into this matter, focusing on who has been in close contact with Marlene or Division One recently.However, there

    Jeana stopped talking after that. If Shannon were to see hers hurting Xavier, not only would the idea of them getting married be out of the question, but she would definitely be kicked out.Yvette couldn't be bothered to continue the conversation and said, "In the future, be more careful. If it happens again, it won't just end with a slap."She returned to her room to continue resting.The next day, when morning came, Xavier was still asleep.The doctor came to give him a medical check-up.The doctor said, "Most of Mr. Lane's physical injuries have healed, but the brain damage is something that won't recover in this lifetime."Yvette listened with a worried expression on her face.Before, it was just that Xavier couldn't see. Now, he had turned into a fool.Although he was once a favored and exceptionally talented person, his current life of his was incredibly difficult.Nathaniel escorted the doctor out, leaving only Yvette and Xavier in the room. Yvette was about to go to w

    Yvette quietly peeked through the crack in the door and saw that Xavier was still lying in bed. His eyes were still closed.He hadn't woken up at all. He must have been having a nightmare just now.Yvette finally felt relieved enough to go back in and tucked the covers back around him, teasing him as she did so, "Look at you in your current state, yet you've got beautiful women eager to marry you. You're really lucky."After finishing speaking, she thought it was getting late and decided to go back to her room to rest.Suddenly, Xavier's large hand grasped her wrist tightly.Yvette's pupils constricted. She thought Xavier had woken up, so she immediately called out to him. "Xavier..."Xavier, however, let go of her.Yvette's eyes were filled with disappointment as she gently placed his hand down."I'll see you again tomorrow."Yvette then went back to her room to sleep.In the early hours of the morning, the sky was exceptionally dark. Yvette was a light sleeper and had a vag

    "It's so late. It can't be good, right?" Nathaniel said, standing in front of Yvette.Yvette asked, puzzled, "What's not good?""I'm just concerned about your safety," Nathaniel explained.Yvette stepped past him and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of myself."She quickly walked toward Xavier's room.Nathaniel assumed that Xavier would not wake up now, so he didn't stop her again.In the spacious bedroom, Xavier lay quietly on the bed with his eyes tightly shut. He didn't appear to be sleeping normally.Yvette closed the door before walking to his side."Xavier," she called out.The person on the bed showed no signs of movement.Yvette sat beside him on the bed and pulled the covers aside a little to look at him, only to discover that he was covered in injuries.It looked like he was hit with a stick, leaving bruises all over. It seemed really painful.Yvette looked around, found a medical kit, picked it up, and began to tend to his wounds.What she didn't know was that
