"How's Becca?"After learning that Rebecca had been rescued, Albert and Sam immediately called Nate.Nate had just come down from the medical car. His expression was solemn. "She has superficial wounds all over her body, and I've found two fractured ribs for now. We need to assess the extent of her injuries at the hospital. I've done some basic first aid on her bleeding wounds, so her life isn't in immediate danger, but ... the injuries are quite severe."They weren't sure if they should feel lucky for finding Rebecca in time before things got worse or blame themselves for not looking after Rebecca well.They still remember the first time they saw Rebecca.Back then, she was still abroad. The Johnsons rushed over as soon as Sam called them. Yet, they encountered a young girl in a wheelchair covered in injuries.Nate remembered Rebecca was reluctant to accept help from others even though she was injured. Rebecca was reluctant to accept help from others. Whenever she succeeded i
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 442 Such a Pity
Ryan stopped talking when he saw Sam.He knew the Johnsons weren't fond of them. An air of tension filled the room, and he fell silent.Indeed, Sam didn't have a good impression of Ryan.From what he remembered, Rebecca was quite close to Ryan. She even considered him a friend.So, he wasn't particularly hostile towards Ryan.Daniel glanced at him and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. This is Sam, Becca's elder brother. You don't have to hide anything from him. Also, hand the guys you've interrogated earlier to the Johnsons."To Daniel, the hooligans were a lesser concern compared to David.In his eyes, David was the primary culprit behind Rebecca's ordeal.Rebecca wouldn't have been kidnapped and subjected to this dire situation if it wasn't because of David.It was pointless and a waste of time to blame those hooligans.But since the Johnsons wanted them, he didn't mind handing them over.After all, those hooligans would eventually face the same consequence
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 443 A Lunatic
Rebecca had been in a coma for three days in the hospital.She hadn't shown any signs of waking up since she was rescued from Tillfort Peaks.However, her medical report showed no problems aside from the two broken ribs. All her other injuries were external.Technically, she shouldn't be unconscious for so long.Even if she was physically exhausted and needed extended rest, she should be awake by now.Although the hospital claimed there was no immediate danger to her life, the Johnsons couldn't help feeling anxious that Rebecca was still comatose.They even asked Liam to examine her pulse. But the result was the same. He said she needed rest and would wake up on her own.Other than waiting anxiously, there was nothing else they could do. During this time, Sam and Daniel took the opportunity to thoroughly investigate David's people in Riverwood.Riverwood wasn't David's territory to begin with. He came on a whim. All his men were hired, and that made them easy to track down.
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 444 He Will Agree
Darren's smile deepened. Usually, he would be angry.He wouldn't be able to tolerate someone calling the child he raised a lunatic.However, he didn't seem angry at all.He even nodded in agreement after hearing Daniel's words."Indeed, David always got his own way. Nobody can control him. He would be fine abroad, but he does seem like a lunatic here. It's not good to be too out of control."He spoke calmly, and it further fueled Daniel's impatience. What was this old man trying to say?Daniel was about to question Darren, but his following words made him pause.Darren raised his gaze and stared at Daniel solemnly."I came to Riverwood this time to ask if you are willing to take over the Winstons in Clarkdale."For a moment, Daniel didn't quite grasp the meaning behind his words. He furrowed his brows and pursed his lips. He remained silent.Darren continued, "Stay here tonight if you are willing to do so. I will show you the current situation of the Winstons. If you do
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 445 Only Two Broken Ribs
Next to a warehouse at Geralton Pier, there stood a somewhat old-looking single-story house.It was lunchtime, and the smell of cooked food wafted through the corridor to the river outside.It was hard to notice the subtle blend of the medicinal and culinary scents."Mr. Winston, I brought the item back."Sheldon stood at the door of a room at the end of the corridor. He held a small box in his hands. He didn't dare to step inside.Unlike the weathered appearance of the building, everything was clean and well-furnished in the room. It looked like a five-star hotel room.David sat on a sofa against the wall.It was late autumn, but he wore only his pants. His muscled chest and abdomen bore clear scars. The one on his abdomen was especially obvious. Now marked by dark brown streaks due to the use of healing ointments, it appeared even more menacing.He was diligently applying medicine to his wounds before bandaging himself.Hearing the noise at the door, he didn't raise his head
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 446 You Cunning Thing
It was around six in the evening.The Winstons were preparing dinner in the kitchen.Darren wanted to have some grilled BBQ. So, the chefs brought out the grill and started preparing some grilled meat.When Daniel arrived at the Winston Residence, he could smell the aroma of food coming from the kitchen.Darren probably missed his life in Riverwood after all the years living in Clarkdale. He even volunteered to cook.Upon catching the smell of the food, he smiled contentedly.He was about to use a towel to carry the food from the grill to the table. Then, he heard Richard's voice. "Mr. Winston Senior, Mr. Winston is back."Darren didn't respond. He continued to transport the steaming food to the dining area and asked everyone to move out of the way."Make way for me! This freshly grilled beef is still piping hot. Be careful not to get burned."He made the grilled beef himself, while the other dishes were prepared by the chefs. Naturally, they served the other dishes, too.Dar
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 447 The Johnsons Don't Deserve It
Daniel didn't mind being straightforward.After working with Ryan for a while, he'd been influenced by the man's way of speaking.But due to his status, nobody would dare to provoke him to the extent that he had to be so rude before this. Finally, he had a chance to express himself.He didn't think that Darren would do anything to Rebecca.As the old man had mentioned, he came from an aristocratic family in Clarkdale. Why would he be bothered with the Johnsons?Yet, except for Darren, nobody else in Riverwood had the ability to quietly remove a patient still in a coma from the hospital.Besides Darren's men, the Johnsons had also arranged for people to look after Rebecca in the hospital.Yet, during the short two hours in the afternoon, the patient recovering in the ward had disappeared without a trace.No matter how Daniel thought about it, nobody else had the power to pull off such a trick except for Darren."Mr. Winston, I believe the Winstons had hired teachers to teach yo
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 448 Safe and Sound
"You!" Ryan was about to retaliate as he was unable to withstand someone else being insulted. Then, Albert clasped his wrist tightly and stopped him from getting up. He shook his head sternly and signaled for Ryan to stay put.Ryan might be hotheaded, but he wasn't an idiot. He sneered but sat back down. He glared at George. The old man didn't bother with his outrage, however. To him, these were no more than children trying to prove themselves worthy when they weren't. Plus, it was fun to watch them struggle."If there's nothing else, why don't we continue this conversation after Mr. Winston's dinner? Or, you may opt to drop by tomorrow. I'm afraid we did not prepare enough to invite you all to dinner. Please accept our sincerest apologies," Richard called out.That was naturally addressed to Albert and the rest. However, given that Daniel was still George's grandson, the butler added, "If you'd like to stay for dinner, Mr. Daniel, there's always a seat for you."It might sound lik

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

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.

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
