It was a rare occurrence to see Zelda setting aside her usual grace and becoming so furious. Seeing this, Rebecca smiled brightly to one side. Thinking of the phone call this morning, she nodded and played along. "Isn't that right? It's all my fault for not knowing many people when I was younger. That's why I was so blind as to only like him."Thinking about it now, Rebecca really felt that it was lamentable. She had really been bound by the marriage arrangement decided by the elders of the two families. Zelda was enjoying herself as her daughter massaged her shoulders."Don't think about what happened in the past anymore. There's a long road ahead of you still. There are many handsome young men in Rookfort. Once you get familiar with things here, have Albert bring you around and attend more charity auctions and such. Got it?"Great. There they went again.Rebecca felt troubled by the suggestion, but she obediently agreed to it. Then, she turned to look pleadingly over at Alber
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 230 I Found You
Him?Albert became slightly stunned when he heard Rebecca's question. He even drove slower in response.Rebecca understood what was going on with just a glance. "Alright, Albert. Focus on the road. Remember I'm in the car too," she joked, prompting Albert to come back to himself.Albert chuckled. "Don't worry, I won't put you in danger."Rebecca laughed as well. However, she didn't respond. She only turned to look out the window.The scenery sped by outside. Besides the occasional reminders from the GPS, there wasn't much noise in the car. There were many things in life that remained shrouded if no one pointed them out. Sometimes, it was just a brave step that banished the curtain of ignorance. It was a shame that there were far more cowards in life. Albert was one, and so was Rebecca herself.That Wendy person seemed to be one too.But luckily, Albert still had a chance.The night breeze swept up the fallen leaves by the roadside in a swirl. After a brief dance, they fell to
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 231 Wendy's Rejection
"You …"Albert's words astonished Wendy so much that she couldn't speak. She stared at Albert's large figure before her as her heart roiled. He …Did he know what he was saying?As if he'd heard her thoughts, Albert answered."I know what I'm saying, and I'm very clear about what I'm doing. Wendy, I like you. Can you not leave?"Wendy's heart raced. She instinctively took a step backward, seemingly wanting to run away.Albert liked her? Did he really like her?How was that possible? How could Albert Johnson actually like her?Wendy patted her face lightly and inhaled deeply. She walked past Albert as she mumbled to herself."I must be seeing things. Really, is there a need to be so happy about quitting that I'm hallucinating? Wendy, stop daydreaming. How could you have such an unrealistic dream …"Before she could take two steps, someone grabbed her slender wrist.Caught unawares, Wendy fell into that person's warm embrace.Losing her balance, Wendy's forehead knocked int
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 232 I Have Someone I Like
Wendy looked up at Albert, meeting his gaze directly."I have someone I like," she repeated, her tone solemn.All the words Albert wanted to say disappeared when he heard this, and he became unable to say a thing. He kept silent, he put away his intentions to try and endear himself to her and regained an air of coldness.He became even colder than the breeze that blew in from the river."Really?" Albert finally squeezed out bitterly.Wendy's complexion was deathly pale as she said, "Yes!" Her teeth were gritted, and it had been very difficult to get the words out. Yet, she forced a smile. "Why would I lie to you? There's no need for such a thing in this situation, is there? Logically speaking, most women would want to date you, Mr. Johnson. If I didn't already have someone I like, why would I reject your confession?"Albert was the eldest son of the richest man in Riverwood and the heir to the MRC Group. Oh, wait. He was actually the person currently in charge of the MRC Group.
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 233 You and Albert
For a moment, Wendy felt like she had something stuck in her throat. She tried to swallow it down, but it hurt. Still, she couldn't cough it out.So, when Albert had said that she liked her, did he do it while allowing another woman to sit in his car's front passenger seat?Wendy's chest hurt sharply, but she didn't want to argue with Albert any further. Faking calm, she looked away and held back her anger."It's getting late, Albert. I should be getting back. I've thought through my resignation very seriously, so I hope that you can approve it as soon as possible." After saying that, Wendy turned and left without looking at Albert.Wendy had misjudged.Albert didn't expect Wendy to react this way. Things had definitely gotten better just now, but now the situation between them had become tense again."A reason." In an instant, Albert's emotions overwhelmed him. "If you want to resign, you must at least give me a reason."He grabbed Wendy almost instinctively, shoving aside all
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 234 Just Albert's Sister
"You … H-he's your older brother?" Wendy was frozen in place as her brain stopped working. She didn't react for a long while.So … she had misunderstood Albert? Was Rebecca really just Albert's sister?Looking at Rebecca in her purple dress, Wendy was even more speechless. Seeing the way Wendy was reacting, Rebecca could guess what she was thinking. She couldn't help but smile. But she didn't go overboard and expose Wendy for her thoughts. She only spoke gently to pull Wendy back to earth."Wendy, you should go wash up first. Breakfast has been prepared downstairs. Once you're done, we can all have breakfast. Can we go shopping later? I just got back to Rookfort and Albert's always so busy. He said he gave you some time off, so you can go with me."Bringing Wendy home last night, Rebecca had gotten some information from Albert as they traveled. Although she still didn't understand why Wendy insisted on quitting, she was sure that her clueless brother couldn't see Wendy's feelin
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 235 An Interesting Breakfast
It was lucky that Wendy had worked with Albert for so many years and met some famous people herself. Though there was a storm in her heart, her feelings didn't show on her face.Wendy smiled warmly and said good morning to the three men at the table. Then, she took a seat before the plate of pancakes that Rebecca had indicated.There was another man at the table that Wendy didn't recognize, but she was sure that he must be someone impressive too. Looking at his resemblance with Ethan, she guessed that he was another relative of the Johnson family.Wendy didn't ask about it. She picked up a fork and knife and started eating. Honestly, she didn't have the time to ask about it either.When she took her first bite of the pancakes, its delicious taste filled her mouth. The pancakes had been cooked just right, and the different toppings made the eating experience that much more enjoyable. She added more maple syrup and kept eating.Enjoying her pancakes, Wendy felt like her body was f
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 236 It Should've Been That Way
Her face turned pale at once. The rosy hue that had graced her cheeks after a night's rest and a hot bowl of soup in the morning had vanished completely.She didn't want to answer Nelson's call.Taking a deep breath, Wendy gritted her teeth and decisively hung up."Wendy, what's wrong?" Rebecca, who was in the driver's seat, noticed Wendy's sudden change in demeanor. She couldn't help but voice her concern.Wendy shook her head and fastened her seatbelt. She tried to maintain a calm appearance. "It's nothing. Let's get going. It's not good to keep the little one waiting.""Alright."Rebecca didn't press further.Everyone had their hidden secrets, even she did. Wendy wasn't obligated to reveal anything, especially to someone she had only met briefly. They were practically strangers."Wendy, if there's anything on your mind, you can tell me. I might not be able to solve it myself, but I can talk to Albert. We'll find a solution together. Keeping problems bottled up inside o
