Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1035 The Joy of Being Alive
Scarlett's surgery was very successful, and her recovery went smoothly afterward.After another two weeks in the hospital for recuperation, Penny and Cecilia brought her home.During this time, Penny learned to cook. Initially, Cecilia did the cooking while Penny watched or followed along with videos.But later, Penny took the initiative to try cooking herself. In the first couple of days, Cecilia watched over her, but soon, Penny could manage on her own.She picked things up quickly, just like she did with her studies at school.At first, she could only cook simple dishes like baked chicken and peppered pork. Eventually, she learned to braise food, and her cutting skills became refined and beautiful.On the day Scarlett was discharged, Penny prepared a full table of dishes.There was no extravagant fare. All the ingredients were chosen based on the doctor's advice and the hospital's dietary recommendations.Still, the food looked and smelled fantastic. It was a clear indicatio
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1036 Cannot Afford to Relax
Scarlett drank half a bowl of soup and tried a few bites of the food, then complimented them repeatedly under Penny's expectant gaze.Feeling satisfied, Penny boasted openly, "I think it tastes great, too."From the first day I started cooking cooked, I felt I was born to be a chef. At least I'll never go hungry and won't need to order delivery again."Since moving here, except for the first day when they were too tired from cleaning, Penny and Cecilia had been cooking their own meals.Of course, they still bought breakfast from the restaurants downstairs.A lot of working people lived in this urban village, and there were several restaurants downstairs offering many different breakfast options.Recently, Penny had tried all these different breakfasts with Cecilia, only staying in to cook on rainy days.In any case, they have been living healthy and deliciously.After praising Penny for another while, Scarlett then turned her attention to Cecilia. She wasn't as satisfied with h
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1037 Take It Slow
Like Penny, Cecilia also worried about her life. She had the same realization but came to it much earlier than Penny.Cecilia knew from a young age that she was different from other kids.She was abandoned by her mother. Besides that, her father was a drunk gambler who didn't contribute to the family, so what could she expect from him?In fact, the family's situation only improved after Moses was imprisoned. Before that, any money the family had was quickly taken by him.Even additional money that others lent them went to him, including everything Scarlett earned.From the time Cecilia became sensible, she knew she had to rely on herself.While peers had accumulated wealth from their families, she had to build it herself step-by-step.Other kids could enjoy delicacies and live in bright, clean houses since birth, while she had to save up for her own new home.What else could she do? Just take it slow. People had different fates.She wasn't negative but instead believed in hers
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1038 Is It Him
Cecilia casually responded, "Maybe you can become a celebrity."You don't need to have acting skills like an actor, as long as you have fans who like you. Money just flows into your pocket easily, and it's a high-paying job."She remembered how everyone used to criticize pop stars back in school. Of course, there was also an element of envy involved.When they were students, they talked about having ambitious goals.They wrote down their grand aspirations, dreaming of becoming scientists, astronomers, doctors who would save lives, or police officers who would protect the public.It wasn't until they faced the harsh realities of life that they realized how ordinary and mundane they truly were.They didn't want anything in particular—just money.They were only ordinary people. They still looked down on those high-earning celebrities, but if given the chance to become one themselves, they would surely be pleased.It was like how everyone at work would curse the boss. But if one da

Cecilia widened her eyes and slowly compared the face in the photo with the much trendier and paler young man on her phone."It IS him," Cecilia said with a sigh. "It seems like all the pictures online are edited. He looks much better in them."It was a young guy's selfie that was shared on social media. It looked like he wasn't used to using beauty filters, and his photography skills weren't great, so the picture didn't look as good as the promotional photos online.Cecilia continued making comparisons and wondered why the person looked somewhat familiar.Of course, he would look familiar. He was the chubby kid from the neighboring class who asked Penny if she could tutor him before.The other party's family wasn't short on money and offered a high price, so Penny had no reason to refuse and naturally agreed.At that time, although Cecilia wasn't always by Penny's side, pretty much everyone Penny met would also end up meeting Cecilia.Cecilia may not be friends with them, but i
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1040 Entering the Scene
To be honest, Penny had never thought she would end up in the entertainment industry.After sending that message, she felt really embarrassed.It wasn't just that the chubby kid would actually respond to her messages—it was because he would show concern for how she had been doing lately.After all, he had achieved great success and fame now. Penny could occasionally see posters of products he endorsed on the streets. You might even hear kids mentioning his name when students were on vacation.He wasn't exactly a top-tier celebrity, but he was definitely well-known.Who would have the time or interest to care about this Penny, who had faded into the crowd?The three years of high school were one of the most significant periods in most people's lives.A while ago, Penny and Cecilia came across a reunion of old friends at the restaurant when they went out to eat.The owner mentioned it was a class reunion, with the people's average age being over 60.In addition to feeling shocke
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1041 Sign It
Of course, when it came to Bubbles, Penny currently felt quite relieved. The Walker family didn't lack money, so he didn't need to degrade himself for his career.He had a sunny and cheerful personality, being a straightforward guy who couldn't keep things to himself. He mentioned that he had never been bullied in his circle.Penny sighed, remarking that having connections and confidence really made a difference no matter what you were doing.Of course, her trust in Bubbles also stemmed from the friendship they built over those years as classmates.After tutoring Bubbles for over a year, a bond between teacher and student naturally developed. If she didn't have even this basic level of trust, Penny would have despised herself.After finishing their meal, both parties had pretty much reached a consensus.Penny and Cecilia had a general understanding of his progress over the past few years and their company's current state.After Bubbles signed the contract to join the industry, t
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1042 Over the Top
Penny signed a ten-year contract with Bubbles' company.It might be due to her connection with Bubbles, or perhaps because she was attractive and easily recognizable on camera, but the company gave her a decent amount of resources.She couldn't compete with those big celebrities. But, compared to some artists who didn't even have a chance to be in the spotlight, Penny seemed to have quite a bit of access to resources.Her first assignment was a low-budget web series invested in by the company, where she played a supporting villain role, earning a pay of 140 thousand dollars.After splitting with the company and deducting taxes, she ended up with around 40 thousand dollars.She didn't have many scenes in the show and was with the crew for about a month. The production covered her meals and accommodation.In just over a month, she earned what she used to make in a year, and that was when she worked all year round without any days off, doing translation work every day.No wonder ev

Penny didn't have much free time over the past three years.As she had envisioned, during the first year, she honed her acting skills amidst criticism while also working as a translator.Later on, she felt that acting didn't hold much appeal anymore. Moreover, realizing that there weren't any roles left for her, she gradually gave up and moved toward working behind the scenes.She had some work during this period.It seemed that a daring reality show, not caring about potential risks, decided to capitalize on her controversial popularity and invited her to participate in one of their programs.The reason Penny agreed to participate was because the show's first season had a good reputation, and the payment offered was reasonable.Continuously doing translations could be quite tiring. After discussing with Cecilia and weighing the pros and cons, she eventually signed up for this TV show.Unfortunately, she had underestimated the darker side of human nature.The show's production
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1064 End It
"Really?" Zane blurted out, staring incredulously at Sam, who nodded calmly. His unruly and carefree demeanor was restrained, and his composed attitude showed that he wasn't joking.Zane fell silent again, furrowing his brow as he intently observed Sam.It was as if he thought everything through in an instant, giving up without hesitation. He didn't even remind Zane of the request from years ago to take care of Penny. Instead, he said this would be the last time he would help out.Logically speaking, this should be a satisfactory outcome for Zane. After all, from any perspective, the Lowe family's scion would only be a burden to Sam.Looking again at Sam's attitude, it seemed he didn't want Penny to know he was the one quietly spending money to handle things behind the scenes.Since there was no plan to meet her, he didn't need to worry about anything after that. If that was the case, it would be better to just end it early.That way, if Sam saw Penny falling in love, getting mar
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1063 No Need to Bother
All those old scoundrels from the Lowe family undoubtedly ranked the highest. Then there was Jessica, the entertainment industry's national goddess, who also played a significant role.Besides them, there were a few minor celebrities who didn't really make the cut.However, as Sam's partner and someone who watched him grow up, Zane privately hoped Sam could find a better girl.So, he advised, "There are plenty of socialites in Riverwood, and Amdale has no shortage of beautiful young ladies, either, and Rookfort isn't much different."You and the Lowe family's daughter haven't even officially met…""Who said I haven't met her?" Sam interrupted him without a second thought.He had even seen her twice. How could Zane say they hadn't even met yet?The first time, she gave him all the money she had. The second time, he spoke up to help her get that role.After these interactions, they could be considered acquaintances.Zane choked up and couldn't find the words to refute.He was s
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1062 Enough
Because Penny declined his offer, Zane didn't insist. After a bit of small talk, he ended the call.He politely mentioned that if she needed any help, she could call this number again. If he could assist in any way, he certainly would.However, Zanw knew very well that, given Penny's temperament, she would rather give up what she had than actively seek help from a stranger.Yes, to Penny, Zane was just a stranger. He was a person she had met once but didn't really know.This time, Penny didn't respond as coldly as she did when she was 18. Instead, she exchanged a couple of polite pleasantries, mentioned that she would reach out if needed, and then hung up the phone.After that, she let out a long sigh of relief and lay on the lounge chair on the balcony, gazing at the view outside the window.There were fluffy white clouds in the azure sky and the greenery visible in the neighborhood. Sparrows were chirping persistently as they darted through the forest, and the cicadas loudly bu
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1061 Better
Although the other person said only one word, Penny could still tell he didn't have any ill intentions.Because of that faint sense of familiarity, Penny didn't hang up the phone immediately. "Hello? May I ask what this is about?"The unfamiliar and distant tone probably made the man on the other end of the phone pause for a moment. It was only after a brief silence that he responded."Young lady, don't you remember me? It's Zane Moran."His voice carried a laugh, with a hint of teasing.Only then did Penny remember who he was, but she wasn't happy at all.Zane meant no harm when that incident happened back then. But despite that, over the years that had passed, he became one of the people and things Penny would rather not recall.Whether it was the exam she missed, the incident where Spencer took her to the hotel against her will, or Zane, who gave her 30 dollars for a taxi ride.She just wanted to hide all of them deep in her memories.The recent events had particularly made
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1060 Resilient
"I'm fine. You all don't have to look so worried. You're making it seem as if something bad is going to happen to me."Penny looked at the two people at the door who were showing a range of expressions, feeling speechless.Cecilia was provoked by her words, and her eyes turned red."We're worried about you. You have no idea what you look like right now. You're almost like one of those disheartened protagonists in novels who hated the world."Penny clicked her tongue twice and said, "Aren't you exaggerating?"She didn't believe it. She was just worried about money. It wasn't like she had become disillusioned with life.Besides, she didn't dislike this world at all. On the contrary, she really liked it.Whenever Penny came across posts online suggesting that all humans should just die, she always felt like rolling her eyes. If they wanted to die, they shouldn't drag others with them.When searching for her own role in movies, TV dramas, and novels, Penny particularly preferred re
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1059 Helpless
Penny's way of clarifying things was to simply tell the truth.Sometimes, trying to cover things up would just lead to needing 100 more lies to continue the cover-up. That would often end up making things worse and more ridiculous.It was better to tell the truth about the situation.To answer the question of why she lashed out at the Lowe family, she briefly explained her experiences over the years.Why didn't she attend the final paper of the college entrance examinations? She personally reopened that old wound.As for that man in the hotel, Penny didn't have much of an impression of him anymore. She only remembered not taking his business card and accepting 30 dollars from him.Why did she show up at that man's hotel room? She wrote it down truthfully—it was her father who personally took her and left her at the hotel, wanting to trade her like a commodity.Every single word was carefully considered and written by Penny.She didn't share much of these things with Cecilia. Th
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1058 Excuses
Once the official statements were released, Penny's career being ruined became a certainty.The only surprising thing was probably that after the film crew issued their statement, the largest investor also requested to withdraw.The film crew was completely shocked, but there was nothing they could do. The scion was willing to lose money just to withdraw his investment, so what could they do?The amount of money in the compensation was nothing compared to the amount that the scion planned to invest. The production team would incur a significant loss.With one less investor, the project's status was essentially downgraded. They had much less room to manipulate their gains now, too.One would understand why the scion was doing this if they used their brain a little.However, the protests from the audience couldn't be ignored, and compared to the investors, it was clearly more important to keep the show going.After all, they could always attract more sponsors, even if the amount o
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1057 Despised
In addition to the widespread backlash caused by the phone recording, Penny's academic credentials were also scrutinized and exposed.Before the college entrance exam, she had always been the top student in her school and had never ranked anything else.However, in the college entrance exam, she barely passed the minimum mark for key institutions, far below her usual performance.Some people speculated that she had been cheating during regular exams and that her actual abilities were much worse.However, the exam results could be checked online, and the fact that Penny scored zero on the last exam was surprising.It was even more shocking that she was admitted to a top-tier university despite missing an exam. It was truly exceptional.But few people paid attention to this information.After all, the achievements attained through hard work couldn't be faked. Even if the results weren't as expected, it was undeniable that she was stronger than many others.Regarding this topic, t
