Yearning for Her Return Chapter 924 Head Back to Rookfort
Mary had her back turned to James. She was clueless that he was shooting angry looks at Angela as she chimed in, "Totally! What's the deal with Zelda and her family? They behave like bloodsuckers, who are enjoying the good life while pulling off disrespectful acts. Don't they care about karma?"James's deep voice echoed from behind, "Karma, huh? Even someone like you, who plotted against your own family, hasn't faced any karma. Zelda and her family are successful in business and often give to charity. Why do you see them as bloodsuckers? What does that say about you?"Mary broke into a cold sweat. She didn't dare to look sideways. She sent a pleading gaze toward Angela, who was lying in the hospital bed.Angela was about to respond when James abruptly stood up and admitted, "I made a mistake. I thought bringing you here would prove the Zelda family's commitment and secure a peaceful retirement for you. "I didn't expect your strong bias. Once the hospital reports are ready, and the
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 925 Pushing Your Luck
James knew why Mary had come to Fairport. He had sensed it on their way to the villa, but he chose to ignore it. Little did he expect Mary to view him as favoring Zelda's family. She thought that he had given them all his money.However, James had divided Gourmet Haven equally among his three children. He had shown no favoritism. He gazed at his daughter with a heavy heart. She'd been spoiled since she was little. A storm of feelings churned inside him.Mary could tell from James' expression that something was off. Yet, she remembered that no matter how much she messed up before, like when she purposefully hurt Rebecca, James never scolded her much. At most, he just uttered a few stern words.Even back when Mary made a fuss during the family property split years ago, James didn't kick her out of the Johnson residence. In her eyes, James seemed tough on the surface, but deep down, he had a soft heart.She straightened her shoulders and boldly declared, "Dad, spare me that expression
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 926 Maintaining a Private Zoo
Mary couldn't bring herself to look up when James revealed all her wrongdoings. She felt a heavy guilt weighing on her.She realized she wasn't young anymore, and even her daughter, Serena, was old enough to be a mother. Those carefree days of asking her parents for money without a second thought were now just a distant memory.Mary was simply a good-for-nothing person. As long as her parents didn't object, she was happy being a boomerang child. She believed that the money Gourmet Haven had amassed would surely support her for a lifetime.It was only when Mary assumed control of a few Gourmet Haven branches that she realized the business wasn't thriving as she had imagined. Rather than taking responsibility, she shifted the blame to others.She blamed James for entrusting Gourmet Haven to her, even though she lacked any culinary skills. She thought Zelda was heartless for not looking out for her and Serena, even though their family was rich.She blamed Henry for seeming to forget
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 927 No Money
James had had enough of being stuck in the hospital ward. He was afraid he'd get really mad and find himself a patient, too. All he wanted was to head home and enjoy some peace."Sorry, no money," James straightforwardly told Angela. Then he looked at Mary and said, "Sure, parents should help their kids, but think about your age. You're old enough to be the one helping us now. I don't want your money, but at least don't come asking for money so boldly from me and your mom."Considering Mary's spending habits, James wondered who she would lean on once he and Angela were no longer there.A look of disappointment slowly spread across his face as he declared, "You won't be getting any money from me. I don't have any to spare. I did earn a bit from those short videos, but I'm sorry to say, your so-called bloodsucker has already donated it all to charity."Since handing over Gourmet Haven to the next generation, James had no source of income in his retirement. While he had some savings,
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 928 Time for a Serious Talk
James looked dead serious as he questioned, "Do I seem like I'm lying?"His serious tone showed he wasn't kidding. Mary's heart fell. That money was supposed to be hers. However, Angela didn't seem bothered. With a life of luxury, money wasn't a big deal for her. Helping others was just something nice to do."Money comes and goes. You'll make more down the road. Look at Mae's situation. You told her to stand on her own feet, but she needs a bit of a push first. We have to support our kids, right? When your next ad or profit rolls in, toss a bit Mae's way," Angela advised.Mary's face brightened at Angela's words. Her distress melted away, and she shot a thankful smile at Angela. "Thanks, Mom."Mary leaned toward Angela and sought comfort like a child. Angela smiled. She found joy in being there for her daughter. However, her smile faded quickly."I've said it before. I don't have any money. I gave away all I had. Any future earnings will also go to charity. As for Mary," James sno
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 929 A Meaningful Life
Angela couldn't stand Mary's endless complaints. She let out a sigh and promised, "I'll talk to your dad and sort things out. He won't ignore you and Serena if you're going through a rough patch. Believe me."Before Mary could get excited, Angela added, "But your dad does have a point. You and Serena are grown-ups, and it's time to handle things yourselves. If he's firm about not giving you money this time, there might not be much I can do."As time went by, Angela had nearly used up all her money to support Mary. While she still had some savings left, handing it all over to Mary didn't make practical sense.Even though James expressed himself strongly, Angela understood that his words carried wisdom. Both she and James had only a limited number of years left to live. Once they were gone, their wealth would be shared among their three children.However, if Mary kept relying on others for money, she could soon find herself in a tough situation. That was why Angela reminded Mary to b
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 930 Avoid Another Mistake
Angela spent two days in the hospital before being discharged. Her hospitalization was a result of sudden dizziness from too much anger, but there was no serious illness. She could have been discharged the same day.The reason for delaying the discharge was that she wanted to see if Zelda was truly so heartless as to not even spare a moment to visit her. Unfortunately, it turned out to be true, and Angela felt disappointed and frustrated.On the other hand, Mary had practically lived in the hospital these days. Yet, she complained about how hard it was for her and Serena whenever she had time.Angela knew Mary was only after money. Mary would say the nicest things if Angela gave her money. Otherwise, Mary would continue to complain about her financial problems.Angela kept a record of all the money that she had given to Mary over the years. If she hadn't done that, she might have thought that Mary was being mistreated at home. It was sad at first to hear Mary talk about being poor,
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 931 A Troublemaker
Zelda was quick to answer Angela's call. After Angela shared that she and Mary were going back to the villa, Zelda's mood immediately turned sour."She's doing you a favor by bringing you here, but she should leave by the entrance to the villa area. I'll send someone to pick you up. Just ask her to leave," Zelda said bluntly.Mary was furious. Last time, she had managed to enter the villa with Angela, but she wasn't even allowed at the entrance to the villa area now. Despite her frustration, there wasn't much she could do. The entrance to the villa area had security, and the Johnsons' bodyguards and drivers were there.Angela tried to reason with them, but there was no way to change their minds. It was Angela leaving with Mary or Angela returning to the villa alone.It had been two days since Angela had heard from James. He hadn't returned any of her calls or messages. There had been no updates on his social media account or his Instagram either. She decided to find out for herself

Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1065 Final
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
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
