"Wow! Mom, this place is huge!"Edward exclaimed.Xandra hadn't yet processed what was happening when her son suddenly pulled away from her grasp and ran inside the room."Mom, this bed is so big and so soft.""What is this? It's all shiny."Edward was looking around everywhere, feeling incredibly excited.Upon seeing this, Gemma became even happier and said, "Just tell Grandma what you like, and I'll have someone get a bunch of it for you."As she spoke, she looked at Irene."Make a list of everything the child likes.""Okay! I want a toy car and also an airplane…" Edward listed off happily.Although he didn't understand why this stranger claimed to be his grandmother, he was quite happy because this new grandmother was generous and wealthy.Xandra gently pulled Edward back and then, feeling embarrassed, said to Gemma, "There's no need to get anything else for decoration. I think it's great just the way it is now."She had never lived in such a nice place before.Gemma noti
Zoey's eyes were filled with excitement. "So what's the results?""They're not related by blood in any way," Elijah responded.Zoey immediately let out a sigh of relief. That was great! Xandra wasn't Gemma's daughter.Zoey couldn't hide the happiness in her eyes. She wanted to go and tell Gemma the truth, but then she remembered Gemma's warning from not long ago."Since Xandra isn't her daughter, I might as well take this opportunity to treat Xandra well and change Gemma's mind."Zoey knew that the situation involving Xandra not being Gemma's daughter would eventually come to light.She didn't need to be in a rush right now. She could start by cooperating with Xandra to show Gemma that she wasn't jealous of Xandra at all.Afterward, when Gemma discovered that Xandra wasn't her biological daughter, she would feel even more guilt toward Zoey.With this thought in mind, Zoey headed toward Xandra's room.Xandra tensed up the moment she saw her enter.There was also the Zelnik fam
Georgia felt even more guilty after seeing how concerned Yvette was about her situation.She felt really guilty toward Yvette and stammered a bit, struggling to find the right words. "I-It's okay now. Um, she probably won't bother us again."When Yvette heard this, she found it somewhat strange. "How do you know so much about this?"When Georgia was asked about this, she had no idea how to explain."I just know she won't cause any trouble anymore, Ms. Snyder. I'm really grateful to you. In a few days, I'll visit to thank you in person."It wasn't just about visiting Yvette to express her gratitude. It was also about visiting her to apologize.Georgia felt incredibly guilty toward Yvette, knowing that she was likely Gemma's biological daughter. Yet she selfishly prevented the mother and daughter from reuniting.Yvette seemed to have sensed that Georgia had some things she didn't want to share, so she wisely chose not to ask further."No need to thank me. Just live well."Yvette
Jeana nodded in agreement and said, "Yeah, he doesn't seem like a normal person at all right now."Marlene's eyes were filled with joy that she couldn't hide, although she pretended to sound regretful with her words. "How did this happen?" she asked."I heard there was some kind of surgery, and it failed, which caused him to have brain damage," Jeana said.She had been dreaming of becoming a wife of the wealthy, but as soon as she thought about Xavier wanting to strangle her, all her desires vanished.Moreover, she didn't like Xavier at all anymore.Xavier was now disheveled and repulsive. He was also a fool now and had completely lost the charm and elegance he once had as a talented individual."Fate is really playing tricks on people."Although Marlene said those words, she was already thinking about bringing Zayden back, who had been sent away by Clifford to do menial tasks at the branch office.Jeana was confused about what Marlene was thinking about. She just kept asking,
When Jeremiah's kindness toward Yvette was mentioned, Zoey's expression immediately darkened."Don't go making things up. Jerry said that the reason he kept Yvette was because it was his mom's decision, and he couldn't go against her wishes." Even though she said this, she knew she wasn't fooling anyone, not even herself.Marlene scoffed disdainfully. "I would hope that's the case."Her heels clacked as she walked away, brushing past Zoey.Zoey finally managed to calm herself down after dealing with Xandra, but now she was once again feeling a storm of emotions inside.She needed to get rid of Yvette! Otherwise, Marlene would really feel that Zoey couldn't compare to Yvette in terms of her place in Jerry's heart.Zoey quickly came up with a solution. She would leverage the collaboration between the Zelnik family and Lane Group.The collaboration between the two companies was critical as it affected a major shareholder and both Titan Corporation's and Jeremiah's futures.If Yv
"What's the situation with Mr. Lane now?" Mark asked.Yvette didn't answer his question but instead asked him, "Mr. Xyrax, shouldn't this be something you should be asking yourself?""You told me not to get involved since Xavier and I are already divorced," Yvette continued.Mark spoke that way because Xavier instructed him that if he ever became a fool, he should not become a burden to Yvette or cause her any worry.But recently, Mark noticed that Xavier hadn't been doing well.He investigated and discovered that Jeremiah had confined Xavier, severely restricting his movements. He was practically living in inhumane conditions.Mark wanted to rescue Xavier, but the security around the manor was too tight.He knew that Jeremiah had special feelings for Yvette, so he thought about asking Yvette for help."Mrs. Lane, you probably understand Mr. Lane's intentions by now, right? He had a check-up and discovered that there was a piece of glass embedded in his head, pressing against t
Shannon was taken aback to hear that. After all, it was Xavier who took the initiative to divorce Yvette, abandoning not only their children but also the ones Yvette was carrying.But now that something had happened to Xavier, Yvette was surprisingly still willing to take care of him.Shannon thought about Xavier, who now had violent tendencies. "Yvvy, Xav isn't just intellectually challenged now. He also has violent tendencies. The maids and butler who look after him often get hurt. If you go over there and he happens to lose control, what would you do?"Her biggest concern was the two babies Yvette was carrying."Mom, I've been married to Xavier for many years, so I'm not afraid of these things. If he wakes up and has another episode, I'll just have someone else take care of him. Do you think that's okay?" Yvette asked earnestly.Shannon simply couldn't find another reason to say no to her.However, she also said, "You might not be aware of this, but Mr. Lane Senior has arrange
Ray was skilled at following people. Yvette was in the car ahead and was completely unaware she was being tailed.It was only when Yvette arrived at the manor that Ray realized she was there to see Xavier.Noah was feeling uneasy and anxious "Does Mom have another family outside of ours?"He had no idea that Yvette had such a private manor like this.Ray sat at the side, saying, "I think you misunderstood."He wasn't sure if he should share so much with a child, so he just said, "Let's go back.""No way. I'm not going back." Noah gripped Ray's arm tightly. "Mr. Septer, do you think Mom has another child outside?"Ray sighed a bit helplessly: "How could that be? Don't overthink it."Noah was feeling a bit flustered. "Then does Mom have a boyfriend?"He was really worried about Yvette's safety right now. Noah secretly sent his current address to Zachary.Once Yvette entered the manor, Noah and Ray quickly lost sight of her movements."Noah, let's head back now. It's getting la
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
