Yearning for Her Return Chapter 753 Absurdity
Rebecca was recalling the nightmare she had just experienced. Even though there were no visible images from the dream, vivid scenes unfolded in her mind at that moment. The crashing waves at the pier echoed loudly, and the lighthouse beam pierced through the darkness as it swung around. What was most terrifying was the boundless deep sea and the fear of sinking as her feet could not reach the bottom. Rebecca furrowed her brows involuntarily, but her curiosity quickly waned. She was reluctant to dwell on the past. Taking another sip of her latte, Rebecca pretended as if she hadn't been lost in thought earlier. She turned to Daniel with a smile and remarked, "Being able to control one's curiosity is a sign of greater intelligence. No wonder you’ve achieved so much, Mr. Winston." Her playful smile dispelled any lingering concern in Daniel's heart. He chuckled lightly and expressed a hint of helplessness. "You flatter me, Becca." Daniel suddenly realized that the formal a
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 754 Sure
Rebecca wasn't particularly surprised about the reversal of public opinion. After all, the truth remained true, and falsehood remained false. Even if someone created a seemingly reasonable fake story to exploit information gaps, it couldn't alter the underlying reality. What truly caught Rebecca off guard was the rapid emergence of netizens fervently shipping Alex and Carissa. She was taken aback and couldn't believe how quickly everyone seemed to pick up on the scent of romance. As she marveled at this, she clicked into the fan club. It was only at this moment that Rebecca realized there were not only the new fans shipping them, but many existing fans had been secretly shipping them for a while. Yet, these fans adhered to unwritten rules like avoiding the use of real names in the fan club. Even the in-game IDs of the players were kept undisclosed. This precaution was taken to prevent any potential embarrassment if the subjects of the ship stumbled upon the fan club. It

Rebecca's eyes widened as she gazed at the message. Swiftly bringing her phone closer, she carefully read the message from Alex. Instead of a period or ellipsis, it was a clear and straightforward "Sure." Rebecca blinked and copied the message. After confirming that Alex had indeed sent the message and ensuring he hadn't retracted it, she enthusiastically replied with a question. Becca: "Alex, am I understanding this correctly? Are you really confessing? You're not joking, right? You're not just fooling around with me?" AlmightyAlex: "....." A long string of ellipses conveyed Alex's frustration. He followed it up with a voice message, and he sounded somewhat annoyed. "You little troublemaker, do I look like someone who would joke about my lifelong decision? I'm confessing to Carissa, not to you. What do you mean by fooling around with you? It has nothing to do with you. Stop messing around." Despite the scolding, Rebecca continued to laugh cheekily. Becca: "Of cou
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 756 I Don’t Know
While Rebecca and Caleb exchanged voice messages, she kept the speaker at a low volume. The surrounding tables couldn't hear, and there was no one nearby. However, as he was sitting next to her, Daniel did overhear quite a bit. Hearing Rebecca's quiet and puzzled complaint, he chuckled and said, "It might not necessarily be that he's not right in his mind. People often have a gambler's mentality. He might be betting on a situation where everyone loses, but it's advantageous for him." As previously analyzed, if CalX won the championship, following the club's policy of not deducting a share of the prize money, Simon's earnings would match the illicit gains proposed by the opponent if he secured a starting lineup position. However, the condition was that CalX must emerge victorious. Success in the competitive gaming world demanded equal effort; there was no room for a one-sided victory without exertion. Simon understood this principle well. Perhaps, after watching the semi-f
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 757 I Have No Idea
"You don't know? You're telling me you've got no idea where that money in your account came from?" Before the police or Alex could react, the rest of the team couldn't contain themselves and bombarded Simon with questions. They stared in disbelief at Simon, their teammate with whom they had shared countless moments. It was tough for them to accept that Simon was involved in fixing matches for money. Shock and astonishment played out on everyone's face except Terry. No one could believe it. When they signed up with CalX, they went through a thorough background check. Throughout the league, it was common knowledge that CalX had the most stringent entry standards. It wasn't just about skills and game awareness; personal integrity had to be assured. Unlike other teams where one could get in as long as they had the skills and passed the training, CalX was strict in their selection process. Yet, here they were, faced with a teammate who had become a disgrace to the entire lea
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 758 Believe Me
At this point, any further argument would be futile. The money was in his account, and his performance in the grand finals was evident to everyone. Insisting on a poor condition? That was just an attempt at deceiving others, not oneself. Having lived together and trained almost every day, even when nervousness led to mistakes, they were well aware of the kind of performance Simon was capable of delivering. Yet, there he was, sticking to his story. Even if it was a false accusation and if the money had been intentionally deposited by someone else, what about his subpar performance in the match? Attempting to brush off everyone by attributing it to his poor condition—did he genuinely believe everyone was as naive as a three-year-old child? As the crowd turned away and left, Simon suddenly felt a sense of abandonment. "None of you believes me?" Simon uttered a final question. His voice was tinged with a tremor. No one responded. Alex, who was observing from the sid
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 759 Eat Before Heading Home
Upon hearing Carissa's words, Alex let out a light chuckle, and his demeanor became lazy. "Ms. Stevens, I've already reached out to you online with my inquiry. If I were to face rejection, it would be a topic of embarrassment all over the internet. So, why should I be concerned about a bit of embarrassment in front of my family?" Carissa glanced at his smile. A spontaneous smile appeared on her lips too. "And what if I were to agree?" Rising from his chair, Alex adopted a respectful tone. "If you agree, Ms. Stevens, it would be my honor. And as for them ..." His gaze shifted toward the curious Rebecca, and a smile broke across his face. "They would be just as happy as I am." Indeed, Rebecca's smile was almost stretching to her ears. Who would have thought that the rumored couple would become a reality? In the past, she couldn't comprehend those who shipped couples, especially considering that many so-called 'sweet moments' seemed forced. It was often just regular friends
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 760 Ex-Husband
Rebecca's words struck a chord with Carissa.Even if she had decided to go back, she should at least wait until they finished eating.Just as she was hesitating whether to give Rebecca a response, Alex, who was sitting beside Carissa, casually said, "Why are you two all being so considerate to each other? It seems like I have a competitor now."Carissa was still lost in her thoughts when she heard Alex's words. She couldn’t help but start blushing.Rebecca, sitting across from her, said, "What can you do about it? We take care of each other. You should step up your game."Alex squinted and looked back at Rebecca, "Oh, look who's talking! Should I watch out for you?"Caleb, standing beside Rebecca, chuckled and added, "I agree with Becca."Alright, the whole family had become united.Caleb didn’t say anything.Coincidentally, the dishes started to be served, and they were ready to eat. Alex was the first to reach for the dishes. He picked up some food and put it on Carissa’s pl

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. 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
