After Yvette had married Xavier, he had told Mark to give her a card. There had been 1.2 million dollars in it as well.Back then, Mark had said, "This has 1.2 million dollars. Mr. Lane is giving this to you as your monthly allowance. He also said his money doesn't grow on trees. So, you'll have to record how much you've spent whenever you buy something."When she had agreed to let Xavier stay with her, she had thought about it. She wanted him to experience everything she had faced with him and the Lanes in the past. That way, he could have a taste of his own medicine and restore bits and pieces of his memories.She figured his pride would definitely be hurt, especially since he liked maintaining his reputation. After all, he now had to depend on a woman and report everything to her.However, when he accepted the card, he didn't look angry at all. Instead, it looked like he was smiling as well. "Yvvy, let me know if you need anything. I'll buy everything together."Yvette was st
Yvette hadn't expected Xavier to buy everything so soon and even prepared breakfast. She took a closer look at the food. There was oatmeal, bread, and milk. There were also fruits, and the table was basically full.When Xavier heard her footsteps, he looked toward her. "I didn't know what you liked, so I decided to buy a little bit of everything. Also, here are the receipts."She looked at the receipts he gave her and was surprised that he had actually listened to her. "Aren't you blind? How did you buy these?"Xavier placed a glass of milk in front of her and said, "I can key in text on my phone using voice input."Yvette didn't suspect him and drank some milk. It was still warm. Then, she took a few bites of bread and purposely made things difficult for him. "I'm not used to having delivered breakfast."When he heard that, he was stunned. "But I don't know how to cook."He had tried making his own breakfast that morning, but he hadn't known where to start at all.When Mark had
Zachary had followed Malcolm to Lane Mansion that day. He had said that he wanted to see his so-called father that Shannon had found. However, he was actually there to see who had replaced Xavier. That was why he had purposely made Malcolm bring him to where Xavier had been staying before."I guess he's not coming today, Zac. We won't be seeing him this time." Malcolm sighed. He had originally been planning on punishing "Zachary's dad" with him for abandoning his wife and son.Zachary didn't mind about it, but he pretended to care. "If you see him one day, you have to call me.""Alright." Malcolm patted his chest and said, "When I become the CEO of Lane Group one day, I'll get someone to punish him."He wasn't even a grown up yet, but he was showing potential to be a tyrant in the future. Who knew where he got that personality from?Zachary continued giving him perfunctory responses. Suddenly, his gaze fell on a tall man nearby. Jeremiah was wearing a black coat as he stood ta
Right after Malcolm said that, he started regretting it. However, since he had said it, he couldn't go back on his word. So, he secretly took Zachary to a secluded area and entered Xavier's place through the side door.When they reached there, Malcolm's heart was pounding, and he looked pleased. "See? This is my uncle's house."Zachary took a look at their surroundings and noticed a luxuriously decorated room on the east side. The pillars were made of wood. Suddenly, he put his hand on his stomach. "Ah! My tummy is hurting. I can't hold it anymore. I need a toilet!"After saying that, he immediately ran to the east before Malcolm could say anything.Malcolm instantly became anxious. "You can't go there! That's where my uncle lives!"Right after he said that, a housekeeper approached him. When she saw it was Malcolm, she couldn't help scolding him. "Where are you here, Mr. Malcolm? Mr. Lane dislikes children, so you have to leave now. Otherwise, I'll have to call him."Malcolm
"Kiki, why didn't you knock again?" Zachary looked angry."Oh! I'm sorry. I've forgotten about it." Kiki approached him and said, "Zac, do you remember what you promised me before?"He sighed. "Of course. You wanted me to pretend to be your son and help you get revenge on your ex-boyfriend, right? I'm the best when it comes to revenge. I can even find you a husband and get him to be my dad."Kiki's eyes widened as she stared at him. "Really?"He hadn't thought that she would actually believe him. In order to ensure her happiness, he patted his chest and said, "Of course! That man will definitely be better than your previous boyfriend.""How much do you want?" Kiki asked solemnly. She figured a male escort who was more handsome than Leonard wouldn't be cheap. She couldn't believe that Zachary would have connections for this at such a young age."You don't have to worry about that. We should get some sleep now. Good night." Zachary lay in bed and covered his head with his blanket.
After Xavier heard what Viola said, he immediately left the kitchen. As he walked, he accidentally bumped into a cabinet with his arm. The glass bottles on it all fell to the ground. One of them even smashed onto the back of his palm.His good-looking arm was bruised immediately. However, he didn't care at all. Although he had memorized the position of everything there in the past few days, it was inevitable that things would be moved.He only managed to reach outside the house after bumping into a few more tables and chairs. Then, he immediately called Mark and told the latter to drive over.As he waited for Mark, he finally understood the great difference between a normal person and a blind person. If he wasn't blind, he would've driven himself to look for Yvette by now. However, he had no choice but to wait for Mark.Since Mark lived nearby, he was able to reach Xavier in six minutes. When he saw Xavier standing in the snow, he thought Yvette had chased the latter out. He im
Back at the restaurant's entrance, Yvette hurriedly pulled her hand back from Claude's face. "I was young back then and didn't know what I was doing."She had only been a few years old and hadn't known about keeping her distance from other boys at all. Back then, Claude had been short and chubby. He hadn't even been as tall as Yvette. She had treated him like a younger brother. Everytime Viola had made something tasty, Yvette had taken some for him.Now, he was taller than her by a head, and he looked dashing. Most importantly, he seemed so regal that no woman wouldn't dare to place her hands on his face.As Claude looked at Yvette keeping her distance, he seemed lonely. "You don't have to have everything when you're with me."He remembered how he ha dbeen freezing during the winter when he had been young. Yvette was the one who had brought him clothes and food and made him happy. If it hadn't for her, he would've frozen to death or gotten killed.However, Yvette shook her head.
Yvette pinched Xavier's waist harder and lowered her voice. "No one's going to think you're mute if you don't say anything."It seemed as if he couldn't feel the pain at all. He said to Claude, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lander. My wife and I had planned to Netflix and chill tonight, so we won't be inviting you for dinner this time."When Claude heard that, his dashing face turned cold in an instant. He knew Xavier was trying to get on his nerves, but he couldn't help being angry.Mark had been worried about Xavier getting bullied at first. However, seeing how things were progressing, he could now breathe in relief.The people around them would look in their direction from time to time. They thought Yvette and Claude were a couple at first. Then, they realized that Xavier was Yvette's husband.They bought the pierogies under the crowd's curious gazes. Since Yvette had said that she would buy Claude some, she gave him a set of pierogies and said, "I'm heading back now.""Sure. See you next t
