Yearning for Her Return Chapter 270 Happy Tears
"Are you fucking cursing me, you brat?" Kenneth questioned Sam so loudly that Sam closed his eyes and almost covered his ears. Kenneth's voice echoed in the study for the longest time. Sam frowned and waited until he no longer heard the echoes of his father's voice before speaking again. "I wasn't trying to! It's just how you spoke sounded like you were—"He refrained from saying, "Giving your final words," to preserve his father's pride. Still, one couldn't blame him for thinking that way. Kenneth always yelled at him and gave him plenty of lectures on the phone for not visiting home. Kenneth always sounded arrogant during their calls. The same happened during their previous meal together. He hadn't returned home in years, so he thought Kenneth would show some concern for him. Yet, the first thing Kenneth did was demand he move his company back to Rookfort. How dare Kenneth?It was a stark difference from today. Kenneth reasoned with Sam patiently and politely. He even offered

With so many people around, Zelda felt extremely embarrassed. She then pushed Kenneth away. "Don't be so cheeky. Stay away from me." "Alright, alright, I'll keep my distance. But my dear, you mustn't cry anymore. The doctor said that if you keep crying like this, you might really go blind." Kenneth was both worried and heartbroken. In her earlier years, Zelda had damaged her eyes from crying too much. Therefore, doctors advised her not to shed tears anymore, as it could potentially lead to blindness.Rebecca stepped in to cheer her mother up. "Mom, Dad is right. Today, we should be happy. You can't shed tears anymore. I've just returned, and you haven't even had a good look at me yet." Rebecca playfully teased her mom. Zelda immediately smiled and replied, "Alright, alright. We're all here to celebrate happily. Go and cut the cake with Sam. Let me taste your culinary masterpiece." Rebecca said with pride, "Of course, the food I make is delicious!" Rebecca had little ce

Mary covered her face in disbelief and looked at Emily. She said in a trembling voice, "You ... you dare to hit me?"The pain hadn't fully registered in Mary yet. She stared at Emily in shock, pointed a finger at her, and waited for an explanation. It was Emily’s first time resorting to physical force, so she didn't put all her strength behind the slap. Though her hand was shaking, she didn't feel any pain. Apparently, Mary didn't either. However, for Emily, it was different. For the first time, Emily stood up for herself in front of Mary. "I slapped you. What of it? As your sister-in-law, am I not allowed to discipline you? Look at your behavior! All you talk about is your family. This house was indeed bought by your parents. However, since I’m married into your family, I'm also a member of the Stigg family. So, why should I move out?" And bringing up the maids, wasn't it a way of mocking Emily for living at home like a maid every day? Emily had married into the Stigg

The rules of the Grand Culinary Championship allowed participating teams to choose an apprentice for the competition. After all, most people went to restaurants to enjoy the dishes prepared by the apprentices. Besides, it wouldn't be very interesting to have a bunch of old chefs competing, especially when most of them were too lazy to participate and would rather have their apprentices represent them. The apprentices in the Stigg family in recent years had average talent, and they would probably be eliminated in the first round if they participated. Henry’s son was even worse. He started his own business after getting into college and had no interest in working in the kitchen at all. No matter how talented someone was, if they weren't willing to cook, they couldn't be forced to.Moreover, there was no guarantee that the dishes his son made would even be edible. If anything went wrong, it would ruin their reputation. However, Mary's adopted daughter, Serena, showed some t
Last Updated : 2023-09-30Yearning for Her Return Chapter 274 Think Highly of Themselves
The judges for the Grand Culinary Championship were renowned chefs from various well-known restaurants.Most of them were retired and no longer worked in the kitchen, like Markus.Alternatively, they were famous gourmands who had been enjoying fine cuisine for decades, like Mr. Manson.Each of them had a placard in front of them. They were representing their respective restaurants.These were the names that had appeared on television and in documentaries and were widely recognized.Rebecca's placard was also well-known. But the fact that she, a young woman, was seated here made her somewhat conspicuous.There were also younger people present, such as media reporters and magazine column editors. But they sat in the back.Therefore, it was unusual to see a young person seated in the front row with a group of elderly people.Fortunately, Rebecca remained composed and continued to smile amidst the bustling crowd.As people approached her inquiring about her restaurant, she graciou

"They look down on us." "They think highly of themselves." These phrases portrayed Four Seasons as if they were superior. They had won several championships and were now looking down on smaller restaurants. The participants were mostly young and spirited individuals. When they heard all that, their emotions flared up, and they joined in with Serena to question and protest. "Even if Four Seasons doesn't participate, there's no need to insult us like this, is there?" "Yeah, we don't mind a woman being a judge, especially in this era when gender doesn't determine one's profession. But is she even skilled enough? Can she handle a knife and ladle properly? Does she have the qualifications to be a judge?""If Four Seasons doesn't think highly of the Grand Culinary Championship, why bother coming? Appointing a judge like her is just disgusting." The controversy grew louder, and Serena wore a cold smile. Serena had personally tasted Rebecca’s cooking, and she was indeed exceptio

"You—"The young man was provoked by Rebecca's words and couldn't contain his anger any longer. He approached her directly."Why do you have the right to say such things? Is there anything wrong with what I said? You're just a woman, and you don't seem very old either. Your role as a judge here is an insult to us, and we have every right to tell you to get lost!"As he walked closer, his voice suddenly grew louder. This made Rebecca frown slightly uncomfortably.However, Rebecca remained seated in her chair. Her voice was calm and unhurried."Firstly, I'll reiterate that I'm against any form of gender discrimination. I'm not the only female chef here.“Secondly, I was invited to be a judge on behalf of Four Seasons by the organizers. You have no right to tell me to leave. And if you think this is an insult, it's not my doing.“Lastly, I'd like to remind you that if you're confident in your cooking, you shouldn't care who's sitting here today. As long as your skills are good enou

The familiar voice made Rebecca look up, and she saw Daniel in a black suit.His tall and slender figure was accentuated by the suit, and his straight-cut trousers hugged his long legs as he walked.Daniel exuded an aloof air of nobility that was far from approachable.Rebecca's eyes widened.Why was he here?If she remembered correctly, Sam had beaten Daniel up pretty badly yesterday.However, when Rebecca looked at Daniel’s face, it seemed as if nothing had happened.Of course, Rebecca didn't know that all the punches exchanged yesterday landed on Daniel's body and not on his face. Hence, there were no visible injuries on his face.As for Daniel’s disheveled appearance yesterday, it was mainly due to the heavy blows and the dirt on the ground, which made him appear terrifying.Today, Daniel had tidied himself up. He wore a well-fitted suit and polished shoes. His hair was perfectly styled. So, there was no hint of disarray.In fact, Daniel had even attracted the attention o

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

"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

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

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

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

"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.

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
