When Kiki heard what the people in the room were saying about her, she frowned slightly. "Tristan, Grandpa told me to bring you home for dinner."When she spoke up, it suddenly became quiet in the room. Everyone looked at her in confusion at first. Then, they started to think about what she had said. When they returned to their senses, they had to hold back their laughter. They couldn't believe that the great Tristan Shaw was being told to go home for dinner.Tristan's face fell, and he pretended not to know her. Kiki didn't want to repeat herself, so she looked at Zachary. Zachary said unwillingly, "Great-Grandpa said you don't have to come home ever again if you return late again."After saying that, he looked at Kiki. "We've already passed the message, Mom. Let's go home."Kiki nodded. However, before she left, she glared at Tristan's friends and said loudly, "The Torres family might be small, but we've never cared about marrying someone from the Shaw family. They were the o
Now that she and Yvette had started talking about it, Kiki couldn't hold back."Yvvy, in hindsight, we kept thinking he was a bastard for not loving you because you mistook him for Jeremiah. But you were just a stranger to him. There was no way he could give you love when he felt nothing for you."The only flaw he had was blaming you for what your mother and brother did. At the end of the day, he's just a petty guy who's too prideful; he's not that much of a bastard."As Kiki realized that, she could finally relax a little.Yvette seriously listened to what Kiki said. "Yeah, I know."However, Kiki immediately said, "However, not only has he lost his memories, but he's also blind now. Yvvy, you'll have a hard life ahead if you stay with him."It would be hard for a blind man to make any money. Since he was part of the upper class, it would be more difficult for him.Kiki couldn't help worrying again when she thought about that. "Yvvy, you shouldn't let his good looks distract you
"Don't overthink it, Kiki. I just care about you. Even if you didn't have a child with Tris, I'donly acknowledge you as my granddaughter-in-law," Archibald explained.Kiki hadn't expected to ever get that much recognition from someone, and she was touched. "Thank you, Grandpa."Now that she thought about it, she figured it wouldn't be that bad to be married to the Shaw family. Tristan's parents had passed away a long time ago, so she wouldn't have any argument with her mother-in-law. Archibald was the only elder family member Tristan had, and he treated her well."You don't have to be so formal with me."When Kiki remembered the other thing that was bothering her, she couldn't help saying, "Grandpa, I would like to visit my friend tomorrow. May I do that?""Of course, but Zac has to stay. I've already asked my old friends to come over. They're traveling from far away just to see my smart great-grandson.""Sure." After all, Kiki just wanted to meet Xavier alone.…It snowed ag
Kiki alighted the vehicle and picked up her courage to walk toward Xavier. "Mr. Lane."He stood there and got straight to the point. "What's up?"Kiki had already thought about what she would say while she had been on her way there. So, she immediately said, "Yvvy is kind and innocent. She's only been treating you well in the past few months because you've lost your sight. I hope you won't mistake it for some stupid love."Xavier frowned a little. "And?""Please leave Yvvy and stop bothering her, alright?" Kiki clenched her fists, hoping that it would make her more confident.Xavier calmly asked, "What if I don't want to leave her?" He finally made Yvette stay by his side, and there was no way he would give up that easily.Kiki was stunned. She hadn't thought Xavier would still be so difficult to handle after he lost his memories. He still sounded harsh when he spoke."Do you think Yvvy will be happy by staying with you? You can't even take care of yourself now that you're blind
"Nothing. She just told me to treat you well," Xavier answered. He wasn't afraid of Kiki's threats at all. He just wasn't sure if he was more important to Yvette or if Kiki was more important to her.Then, Yvette realized Kiki was most likely feeling restless after hearing what she had said last night."The pierogies are ready. Go have some now." After saying that, she looked in the direction Kiki had driven off, a warm feeling spreading through her. While they were eating, Xavier told Yvette that he had started a new company. Kiki's visit that day made him realize he couldn't keep pretending to be broke. So, he had to put an end to the lie."What kind of company is it?" she asked."A foreign trading company."Previously, Titan Corporation had slowly became greater because Xavier had started doing foreign trades. She remembered how tough it had been when he had first started dealing with foreign business partners. Everyone had picked on him for being young.Some people had ev
Just as Xavier was about to say something, Yvette stopped him. "If they don't mind redecorating the place, we should just let them do it. After all, it'll be nice to change it up a little for the new year. Please thank Madam Shannon for me, Luther."When Luther heard that, he frowned. "Sure."Noah quietly enjoyed the pierogies with a cold gaze. Yara had just been locked up, and Shannon was here to torture Yvette next. This time, there was no way he would watch from the sidelines while Yvette got bullied.After making up his mind, he put down his cutlery and said, "Mom, I'm done eating now. May I go out for a walk?"Yvette placed her cutlery down too. "Sure. I'll come with you.""Mom, didn't you say you still needed to prepare for Christmas? I can go by myself, and I'll be back in no time. It'll be fine!" He spoke tactfully."In that case, can Mr. Septer tag along?" After Noah had snuck into Lane Mansion behind Yvette's back, she didn't dare to let him go out by himself anymore.
After letting Noah return to the house, Xavier called Shannon and told her to stop being a busybody. He seldom lectured her, and she was upset about it. So, she told him about Yvette and Jeremiah to make things worse. "Xav, you might have lost your memories and sight, but you're still a Lane. You can have any woman you want. "A fickle woman like Yvette who's interested in her own brother-in-law isn't worthy of being part of our family at all. If it weren't for the two…"She stopped herself from mentioning the kids. After all, she hadn't gotten to the bottom of it yet. So, it wouldn't be wise for her to tell him about it."What have you heard?" Xavier narrowed his eyes.Shannon's heart skipped a beat, and she was clearly acting unnatural. "No one has to tell me anything about it. I've seen Yvette and Jerry being intimate with my own eyes."Liars would tend to lie to themselves first.Xavier tightened his grip on his phone until his knuckles turned white. "Don't bring this up ev
"Sure, I'll give you one last chance," said Jeremiah.Daphne let out a breath of relief. "Mr. Jeremiah, don't forget your promise. You said you would help me get back into the entertainment industry if I succeeded in my task.""Of course."Then, she finally told him her plan. Although it was a vicious plan, it was a surefire way to make Yvette give up on Xavier entirely. So, Jeremiah agreed to it.…When Xavier returned to the manor, he told his men to check the surveillance cameras. As expected, he was told that Jeremiah was in a car outside, talking to Daphne. Xavier's gaze went cold. It seemed like he had to get Jeremiah out of the country as soon as possible.Unfortunately, he couldn't see anything at that moment, and it made everything difficult.Meanwhile, Yvette had finished the preparations for the Christmas dinner. All she needed to do was finish cooking everything when the time came.When she saw Noah entering the manor, she couldn't help being confused. "Didn't you
