Tristan was at the hospital as well. When he saw Yvette leading Xavier into the building, he wanted to snap a photo of them and post it online badly. He wanted to show his friends what was happening, but he didn't dare do so."Xav!" He hurriedly approached Xavier.Yvette was about to let Tristan take over, but Xavier unexpectedly tightened his grip on her hand. Then, he said to Tristan, "Let's go and take a look.""Sure." Tristan couldn't help feeling he was third-wheeling.After they entered the building, Xavier soon went into a specialized examination room. Meanwhile, Yvette was waiting outside.They had been trying out various treatments for some time, and she was slowly losing hope for his recovery. After all, his condition was rare.After a short while, Mark arrived as well and learned that Xavier had regained his memories again. Unfortunately, Xavier couldn't remember what had happened during the time he'd last lost his memories.As expected, after the examinations were do
"Xav lost his memories once before. I'm guessing he hasn't fully recovered yet," Jeremiah said to Jeana as he stood at the top floor of Empire Club."He lost his memories?" She couldn't help feeling surprised. "No wonder he couldn't tell who I was again."Jeremiah suddenly changed the topic, asking, "Do you really want to marry him?"She said without any hesitation, "Yes. I've liked him since I was a little girl."Be it within the Lane family or in the outside world, Xavier had always been an amazing person. He was just unfortunate to have become blind. However, that was the reason why she thought she was worthy of him at that moment."In that case, you should grab the opportunity. If he loses his memories again…" Jeremiah stopped talking after that.Jeana understood what he meant, but she felt frustrated again. "I pretended to be in an accident just so I could stay in Tirion. I'm worried they still won't let me stay now.""It looks like you're not determined enough," Jeremiah m
Back at the hospital, Jeana fell into a deep thought after Jeremiah told him that she wasn't determined enough. After thinking about it for a long time, she finally had an idea. She limped her way out of the hospital and hailed a cab. She went straight to Lane Mansion.…When Yvette and Xavier returned to Dewberry Manor that afternoon, they saw Jeana was there as well. Since her legs were supposedly hurt, she was sitting down. Clifford was sitting next to her on the couch."You're back," said Clifford."Hi, Grandpa," Yvette politely greeted him.After he nodded, he went to the point right away. "Xav, Yvette, Jeana is my old friend's granddaughter, and that makes her your cousin. Her accident this time has something to do with you chasing her away too."He was saying that Jeana wouldn't have been in an accident if they hadn't chased her away. He continued, "I've made a decision on your behalf to let her stay. After she has recovered, she can help you look after the kids. She c
After Jeana got into an accident, Yvette had come to understand how determined the woman could be. Jeana could even give up on her own life to get what she wanted, and she wasn't as foolish as she seemed.Hearing that she could stay, Jeana finally stopped kneeling. "Thank you, Yvette and Xav! Once I'm fully recovered, I'll definitely take good care of you.""There's no need for that. Grandpa had a point. Since you're our relative, that makes you our guest," Yvette said calmly.Jeana pursed her lips. "You sure are great, Yvette. I used to think Daphne would be more benevolent than you if she were my cousin-in-law."She sure knew how to attack where it would hurt the most.Seeing that everything had been decided, Clifford didn't stay there any longer. After he met Noah when the latter came back, he returned to the mansion.Noah didn't like Clifford that much. He thought Clifford wasn't as great as Archibald. As he had expected, when he saw Jeana, he understood what was going on.
Yvette had no idea that Xavier was actually still jealous. She just said, "You should get your memory fixed first and stop losing them from time to time."She really couldn't handle it. After all, Xavier had been really frustrating in the past. He just answered with a hum.Labor Day was around the corner. When Yvette thought about returning to Lane Mansion again, she felt annoyed."Let's sleep now. I'm tired."However, Xavier didn't want to sleep at all. He held her in his arms and gently kissed her forehead."Go ahead and sleep. I'm not tired yet." His hoarse voice sounded irresistible.After being kissed on the forehead, Yvette opened her eyes and saw his face being closed to her. "Don't do this."She avoided him and pushed him away with her hand. However, he just grabbed her wrist and said softly, "Be good and listen to me."Yvette didn't know what was wrong with her—she couldn't resist his temptation that night. …When she woke up the next day, it was already 11:00 am, a
An hour later, Yvette and Jeana had gotten kidnapped, with both their eyes covered. When the two pieces of cloth were removed from their heads, Yvette realized they were held at an abandoned factory.Jeana was tied to a post, and she was anxiously struggling. "What's going on, Yvette?"An hour ago, a vehicle had stopped in front of them. Then, a few men had rushed out and forced them into the MPV. At that moment, Jeana still hadn't returned to her senses and was in a daze.Yvette frowned when she heard Jeana. "Shut up!"She thought it was obvious that someone had abducted them. She instinctively thought Zoey must have instigated Gemma to do it again. However, shortly after that, someone opened the doors. Then, a woman walked in with her loud high heels.When Yvette saw who it was, she was stunned. "Daphne?"Daphne slowly approached Yvette and bent down. "I bet you never expected this day to come, did you, Yvette?"Yvette had truly never seen it coming. However, she was curio
"Ahh! My leg! You're going to break it…" Jeana cried nonstop. Seeing how her pleading wasn't working on Daphne, she turned to Yvette. "Yvette, call the police now! Think of something to get me out of here!"Upon hearing Yvette's name, Daphne finally took her foot off and looked at Yvette again. "I almost forgot about you."Yvette glared at Jeana for a moment before saying to Daphne, "I still remember what you said to me before.""What is it?" Daphne was confused."You said that we had no conflicts between us other than the fight over Xavier. We were still friends back then, and we only became love rivals later on, didn't we?" said Yvette.Daphne remembered it. It was true that she had said that. However, she clenched her fists tightly."You're right. We didn't have any hatred between us back then. However, you've ruined my reputation, and I have to hide from society because of you. Now, I just want you to die!"Yvette remained calm. She knew she had to buy herself more time unti
Sunny told Xavier to meet him alone. Otherwise, he would kill Yvette and the two children in her belly.Mark couldn't help frowning. "Not only is this guy cunning, but he's a fool as well! How does he expect you to go and see him alone when you're blind?"Xavier clenched his fists tightly. Then, he received another message from Sunny, saying that there was a car downstairs to pick him up. He even said no one else was allowed to get in the car."Take me downstairs," Xavier said coldly."Mr. Lane, this is a trap. If you go there, he definitely won't let you go. Let's get someone to find Mrs. Lane in secret. At least we can save her that way," Mark explained.Although Xavier looked calm, he was already feeling anxious on the inside. Yvette had already become his weak spot. "I can't risk her life. Let's go."Mark knew there was no way he could change Xavier's mind after a decision was made. So, he had no choice but to take Xavier out.Before Xavier got into the vehicle, he said to M
After Xavier was taken away, Tristan and Mark frantically searched everywhere but couldn't find Jeremiah, that lunatic.The main problem was that they were both seriously injured and could only rely on their subordinates to find help."If something happens to Xav, I will never forgive myself." Tristan felt especially guilty, wondering why he hadn't been more cautious.He had been too arrogant.Mark, being a bit more rational than him, said, "Mr. Shaw, since we haven't heard any bad news about Mr. Lane, I assume everything is fine with him.""What do you mean?" Tristan asked."If I were Jeremiah and wanted to frame us for Mr. Lane's death, I definitely wouldn't drag it out," Mark replied.Both of them were currently in a lot of pain, and even simple conversations were very difficult for them.So, after talking for a bit, they took another break.Unfortunately, Mark's phone kept persistently ringing. He saw that Lillian was calling, but he didn't dare answer. He was worried that
Jeremiah gradually tightened his grip. Once Xavier died, he could claim that Tristan and Mark were responsible for secretly harming Xavier.No one knew what kind of surgery they had performed on Xavier, only that it ultimately led to his death."Xavier, don't blame me. If you want to blame anyone, blame yourself. You just had to fight with me over everything," Jeremiah said as he covered Xavier's mouth and nose. "When I met Yvvy, I thought I finally had something you didn't, but even she was taken away by you."It's bad enough you took her from me, but you won't even let me move on! Do you have any idea how much it hurts to see you two together every day, especially knowing she's pregnant with your children?"Jeremiah's eyes were slightly reddened."Now, it's all good. With you gone from this world, I'll take good care of Yvette for you."He seemed to have deliberately emphasized the word "Yvette". He didn't know if Xavier was aware of it, but it just felt incredibly satisfying!
Yvette saw that the call was disconnected and decided not to worry about Xavier anymore.…On the other end, Mark stood outside the ICU ward. Up until now, Xavier still hadn't woken up.Tristan came over and checked all the indicators. "There's nothing wrong, so why hasn't he woken up yet?""Mr. Shaw, do you think Mr. Lane might never wake up?" There was a look of concern in Mark's eyes as he asked that. He couldn't believe that the person he had always followed would leave in such a way."Don't overthink it," Tristan said, giving him a pat on the shoulder.Suddenly, there was a noise from the outside."Who are you? This is a private hospital. No one else is allowed to be here.""How can you resort to violence?"There was the sound of things clattering, followed by the cries of pain from those in a fight.Tristan frowned. "Who is it? Do they have a death wish?"Mark was also in disbelief. Shortly afterward, they finally saw clearly who was approaching them.Jeremiah was s
Over at Snyder Residence, Yvette was woken up early by Kiki, who also informed her that there were negative rumors about Zoey circulating online."Yvvy, see, I told you that the media wouldn't easily let Zoey off the hook."Yvette read through them again.However, these news stories disappeared not long after they were published.While eating breakfast, Kiki frowned and said, "The speed at which trending articles change is just too fast.""That's the benefit of having money," Yvette said.Even the children knew about the trending articles being removed.Zachary had originally wanted to hack in further to make Zoey's news trend more frequently. Unfortunately, it seems they had figured out about the hacking attempts, so they fortified their firewall and posted someone to monitor the situation.If he hacked in again, there was a chance he might expose himself.Zachary decided to back off and settled for teaching Zoey a small lesson.…Yara was to be laid to rest today.Yvette
"We've found her, and we're currently figuring out how to obtain her biological sample," Elijah replied.Zoey was really anxious. She said, "Great. Once you've got it, come back as soon as you can.""Okay."Zoey hung up the phone and laid down to rest, but she just couldn't fall asleep.If Xandra really was Gemma's daughter, given Gemma's doting and overprotective nature, she would want to give half of everything she owned to Xandra.No, it wasn't just half. By then, Zoey might end up with nothing, and everything would go to Xandra.Zoey had a rough night and didn't sleep well, but fortunately, Elijah sent a message saying everything had been arranged. They were coming back today, so they could move forward with the examination earlier than planned.Just as things got settled over at Zoey's, online articles started trending elsewhere."Zoey Yandell is suspected to be the biological daughter of Yara Cadwell.""Zoey Yandell is unwilling to acknowledge her biological mother in or
"Fine, then. What a pity," Kiki said as she put down her phone.Yvette reassured her, saying, "There's nothing to feel bad about. What happened today was a warning to Zoey that I'm not someone to be messed with."Kiki nodded, saying, "Yes."They all understood that as long as Zoey was the Zelnik family's daughter, she would always have someone to protect her.Kiki said, "Gemma treats her adopted daughter so well. If she had her own kids, they'd definitely be happy too.""Yes, indeed."Yvette admired Zoey for having such a supportive mother who stood by her no matter what happened.Kiki asked, "Yvvy, have you ever thought about finding your biological mother?"She suddenly realized that many parents who abandoned their children might have done so because they had no other choice, or perhaps they did so for other reasons.Yvette shook her head. "I don't want to be disappointed again."Parents who could abandon their daughter at the orphanage probably didn't love her very much.
Kiki nodded and said, "Yes, it's them. They're incredibly arrogant. Just thinking about it still makes me really angry."Yvette picked up her phone and made a call. A bodyguard that was stationed nearby answered her.Kiki overheard her telling the person on the phone to isolate a few of them and beat them up."What do you mean?"Kiki still didn't understand what was happening.The driver started the car and drove them to a secluded location.Kiki then realized that all the people who had previously pushed her were now being cornered and beaten up."Yvvy, this is...""I can tolerate it if they bully me, but I can't stand it when they bully you," Yvette said, enunciating each word clearly.Kiki felt moved. She hugged Yvette tightly, saying, "Yvvy, you're amazing! My true love!"Yvette couldn't help but laugh. "Dummy. You're my best friend. You stood by me, so of course, I'll stand by you."She was no longer the person she once was, with nothing to her name. Yvette now had weal
Zoey never imagined that Yvette had secretly recorded their conversation back then.She immediately told the approaching reporters, "Stop taking pictures."However, even if the reporters didn't take photos, the guests who attended would take pictures and record videos."With this whole mix-up between the real and fake daughters, is Zoey actually from the Yandell family or the Snyder family?"Lawrence was upset and said, "My daughter, of course, took my last name.""Ah, so Yara was having an affair..."The people who came to attend the funeral on behalf of the Snyder family were instantly displeased."Are you kidding? Yara has been with you all along. Do you think us Snyders are a bunch of nobodies?"The members of the Snyder family and the people from the Cadwell family suddenly started arguing fiercely.Yvette looked at everything happening before her and just felt a deep sense of sadness.Kiki was supporting her upright, fearing she might get unintentionally caught up in th
The people present whispered to each other, confused about what Yvette was trying to do."Yvette, we were in the wrong before. Please don't take our words too seriously."The ones who previously criticized Yvette were now pretending to say nice things, fearing retaliation from her.Zoey and Lawrence stood among the crowd, unsure of what Yvette was going to do or say.Yvette ignored the person speaking and instead pulled out a report. "This is a paternity test. I am not Ms. Cadwell's biological daughter."She spoke about it boldly and bluntly.Everyone present was stunned to hear that, including Zoey and Terrence.Terrence never imagined that the sister he grew up with was not actually the daughter of the Cadwells."Yvette, don't joke around," Terrence said while forcing a laugh.Yvette looked at Terrence and said, "I'm not joking. To avoid anyone thinking I'm faking it, I've undergone tests at several major hospitals. I'm definitely not a daughter of the Cadwell family or the
