Marcus woke up early the next morning. His throat was parched after drinking heavily the night before. As soon as he opened his eyes, he reached for the bedside table, expecting to find a cup of tea as usual, but it wasn't there.The sheets beside him had already gone cold as well.He wondered where Yvonne was. Something felt off, but before he could think much of it, he got a call from his sister, Quinn Cunningham. She told him she was bringing a friend over for a visit.Meanwhile, Yvonne, who had spent the entire night on the app until her eyes were red and swollen, had finally fallen asleep in the adjacent room at dawn.She woke up to a commotion downstairs.The housekeeper, Maria Shaw, informed her, "Ms. Cunningham asked you to change and join them when you wake up."At the pool, Yvonne felt out of place in her overly revealing swimsuit. As soon as she appeared, a wave of teasing and lewd remarks crashed over her. "Damn, Marcus, your fiancée is quite the looker.""Yeah, is

Yvonne had always made excuses for Marcus, but now, she knew that he simply didn't care for her."I would like to thank the Cunningham Group for sponsoring tonight's auction. Now, let us begin," the auctioneer announced.Rachel was hanging off Marcus' arm as they took their seats.The first item was a gold bracelet carved with intricate patterns. Yvonne watched as Rachel whispered something to Marcus. He raised his paddle, raising the price from 100,000 dollars to a million dollars."Such generosity! As expected from Mr. Cunningham!" someone said. "I heard Rachel Sinclair was his first love, the one that got away. Now that she's back, it looks like he's determined to win her back!""But I heard Mr. Cunningham was engaged. Wouldn't that make Ms. Sinclair the mistress?" another whispered."Oh, stop it. Didn't you hear? She's his first love. She came first! Besides, I know that he only got engaged to his current fiancée because his family pressured him. I heard that she's deaf. How

Following Suzy's advice, Yvonne found herself a tutor.Though absurd, it turned out to be the quickest solution.After moving out of Waterfront Bay, she managed to find a college student majoring in Anderian who needed a part-time job. He was fluent in the language and taught her well. He had even spent some time studying abroad, but due to financial difficulties at home, he was in urgent need of money.Combined with Yvonne's own diligence, her speaking skills improved by leaps and bounds. Soon, she would have no problem moving abroad.For a whole month, she focused on studying, ignoring everyone but Suzy.She also managed to sell the pink diamond brooch.Xavier was the perfect buyer. Yvonne was quite satisfied with dealing with him, as he hadn't haggled and paid promptly.However, she did notice that his intentions weren't entirely pure, so she didn't respond to his messages after the deal was done.To her surprise, Marcus began sending her multiple messages daily. In the past

When Rachel wrapped her arms around Marcus, pressing her soft bosom against his back, she thought that he wouldn't refuse her—especially not when he had nearly killed himself after she left him all those years ago.However, Marcus' reaction was nothing like she expected.Instead of affection, he rejected her outright—mercilessly and without regard for her dignity. "You're drunk, Rachel."He pushed her away. Despite her alluring figure and tender invitation, he didn't feel any desire for her.Even Marcus was surprised by his reaction. How could he, in the presence of the woman he had once longed for desperately, feel disgusted when she wrapped herself around him? He had pushed her away without a second thought.Rachel's face fell, unable to keep her composure any longer. "What the hell, Marcus Cunningham? So what if that deaf woman is gone? Do you have to be so indifferent toward me?"Marcus was both shocked and furious when he heard Rachel calling Yvonne "that deaf woman". Rachel

In the end, Xavier was still the one who paid for the meal.While they talked, the topic naturally turned to why Yvonne went abroad.Yvonne was candid with the reason. "I risked my life to undergo a life-threatening surgery just so that I could be worthy of him, but before I could share the joy, I heard him calling another woman's name while holding me. That's when I gave up on him.She added, "It's nothing, really. It's no big deal."Her casual tone only made Xavier's heart ache for her. He raised his glass and said, "Come on, let's have a toast.""What?""Here's to your new life."…It took Yvonne three years to complete her studies, finishing ahead of schedule. Under her mentor, John Keyes', guidance, she could now lead her own project independently.Yvonne thought that she would never return to her home country. Settling abroad wasn't such a bad option.But one phone call shattered all her plans.At dinner, Yvonne seemed distracted.Seeing this, Xavier asked, "What's wr
