Mark was stunned. He hadn't expected Lillian to see him meeting Jeana, let alone take pictures of them."Lily, I can explain." When he tried sending out the message, it failed. Lillian had blocked him on social media as well.His heart sank. Without wasting more time, he immediately drove to her company.Meanwhile, Lillian looked extremely angry in her office. She wanted to punch Mark badly for not telling the truth until that point.Since her company wasn't that big and didn't have any security, Mark rushed inside right away. Then, he grabbed her hand and said, "Lily, I can explain."Lillian frowned in confusion. Her colleagues looked at them curiously.Left with no choice, she followed him out of the building. When they got to a secluded spot, Mark immediately apologized to her. "I'm sorry, Lily. I shouldn't have lied. I was worried that you might be angry. That was why I didn't dare to tell you the truth."When she heard that, she became even more furious. "How about I find
Mark was still slow when it came to being in a relationship. He had no idea that Lillian was giving him a chance. She didn't want to waste her breath on him anymore and got up to return to the company.Mark followed her, and she turned around to scold him. "Do you not even want to be friends anymore?"He obediently stopped in his tracks. "That's not it."He knew he had really made a big mistake this time. However, Lillian didn't want to forgive him just like that. Otherwise, it might happen again with another woman.When she returned to her office, she felt devastated. But she didn't have anyone to talk to about it. After all, she'd followed Mark to this city after they'd started dating. She didn't have any friends here at all.At that moment, she had said everything she could, including breaking up and moving out. However, she didn't know where she should live from now on.Suddenly, she thought of Yvette. Then, she endured the embarrassment and sent the latter a message. "Yvvy
However, when the cab stopped, Mark realized the person in the vehicle wasn't the one he was looking for."Damn it!"Meanwhile, Jeana was still calling him. He answered the call in annoyance. "Can I help you, Ms. Churchill?"She thought he sounded like he was in a bad mood that day. However, she figured she'd heard it wrong and didn't care at all. "Were you asleep, Mark?""No." He really wanted to blame her for being the reason why he couldn't sleep that night anymore.She hurriedly said, "I'm a little scared. There were some weird noises in the manor last night. Can you tell Xavier to bring me to his place and let me stay there?"When Mark heard that, he coldly said, "It's not up to me. You should just call Mr. Lane yourself. If there's nothing else, I'll be hanging up now."When the call ended, Jeana was confused. Suddenly, she remembered how Lillian had met her the other night. She wondered if Lillian had told Mark about everything.She instantly regretted not telling him ab
Lillian was really grateful for Yvette, and the latter was glad to have done her a favor.After the call ended, Yvette saw Jeana walking past her with a long face. Suddenly, Jeana stopped in her tracks and looked at Yvette. "Yvette, I need to ask you something.""What is it?""Do you know Mark's fiancée?"It was the first time that Jeana had been hurt so badly. She knew Lillian had something to do with it. She figured the latter must've said something that had made Mark remove her from his contacts.Yvette didn't answer her question directly. "Why? Do you need her for something?"When Jeana heard that, she sat down to talk to Yvette. "Yvette, I met her once the other night, and she was really arrogant."She started making up stories in front of Yvette again. The latter pretended to be interested. "Oh, really? How was she arrogant?""She told me bad things about you and said you weren't worthy of Xavier at all. She even said Mark would always talk behind your back and talk about
Yvette wanted to enter the competition with a normal status to make it fair.Cynthia finally understood what was going on and said, "Boss, you're too kind. Some people would do anything just to get the first place right away."Soon, the registration was completed. Yvette had no idea, but Zoey had been paying attention to this competition. She wanted to find a personal composer to work with. Gemma had even invested in the competition for her sake.When Zoey got a list of the contestants, she glanced through it and locked her sights on Yvette's name."Yvette Snyder?" She immediately called Mila and said, "Ask the organizers for this Yvette's information."She wondered if someone shared the same name as Yvette. She knew Yvette had hearing difficulties, but she didn't know that the latter could compose songs as well.After a short while, Mila returned. "Ms. Yandell, the organizers said this Yvette was recommended by a veteran composer. Other than her name, they don't have anything el
Just as Zoey was about to rush in there, Jackie stopped her."Have you thought this through, Ms. Yandell? Are you really going to charge in there? If Mr. Jeremiah gets angry, you'll have to calm him down yourself."When Zoey heard that, she had no choice but to back out for now. Then, she chose to wait in Jeremiah's office for his meeting to end. Jackie ignored her and returned to the office to secretly tell Jeremiah about her arrival.He frowned and said, "Got it. Head back to work now and don't worry about her.""Yes, sir."Yvette was sitting close to him and roughly heard what Jackie said. She noticed Jackie's gaze earlier and figured Zoey's presence here wasn't good news. Then, it hit her that she might be the reason why Zoey was there.Jeremiah noticed that Yvette was a little distracted. He nudged her a little and asked softly, "What's wrong?"She immediately returned to her senses and shook her head. "Nothing. My mind went somewhere else for a moment there. I'm sorry."
Zoey's eyes teared up after Jeremiah yelled at her in front of Yvette. She was afraid of him, so she endured it and unwillingly returned to the office. After she was gone, Jeremiah looked at Yvette. "If something like this happens again and someone bullies you, be sure to fight back like this."When he was done speaking, he returned to his office while Yvette watched on in confusion.Upon seeing him returning, Zoey looked at him with an aggrieved and teary look in her eyes. "Jerry, why did you yell at me in front of her? Do you still like her?"He didn't answer her question and asked her instead, "Do you know where we were just now?"She looked at him in confusion."There were a lot of members of the upper management there. As my fiancée, how could you fight Yvette? What would the others think about it?"Zoey couldn't answer him at all.Then, he added, "Mom was the one who arranged for Yvette to work here. She's hoping that Yvette can help Xav with work. After all, you know he
Xavier was leaning his back against the car seat with his eyes closed. When Yvette saw him, she was confused. "What are you doing, Xavier?"When he heard her angry tone, he opened his eyes. "Tell Jeremiah that you're resigning, and do it in front of me."She'd never thought he would get someone to abduct her just to tell her to resign."I'm not doing it." Everything was going well for her, and she had no reason to quit her job. She also finally had a way to anger Zoey. If she left the company now, she would be admitting that she was afraid of Zoey.Xavier frowned slightly and coldly said, "Are you still holding on to hope to be with Jeremiah when you're carrying my children now?"Yvette felt frustrated. If she hadn't known that he had lost his memories, she would've punched him at that moment. When he noticed that she wasn't saying anything, he thought she really wanted it to happen. So, he became extremely gloomy."Don't forget that you're pregnant and already have two more ch
