Chapter 201 I Won’t Ask for Custody
Finished
The nammy next to us leaned in and spoke in a low voice, Mrs. Hartwell, Yuna really does miss you Lately. Ms Lackman’s been showering her with gifts, but she won’t even touch them. Ms. Ta kon even tried to take Yura out for fun, but turned her down
ing here to see

Vina nodded earnestly, her little fists clenched. “Yeah, I don’t like Queena anymore. She’s acting way too frienally now, and 1 know she wants to be my new mommy, Grandma’s always around her, too, but I don’t want a new mommy. I just want you.”
Yuma’s eyes welled up with tears as she wrapped her arms tightly around my waist, pressing her face into my clothes. Her voice tremilled as she said, “Mommy, I don’t want anyone else to be my morn. I only want you. Daddy promised me too–h said he wouldn’t let anyone else take your place. He said the three of us will always be together that we’re a real family
I stared at Yuna in surprise, unsure when she’d come to understand what being a family really meant,
Tit deep down, I knew I couldn’t truly welcome her into my heart again. The wounds she left in my past life were still too
“You’ve grown up a lot, I said softly, placing a hand on her shoulder. “Mommy just wants you to be strong and take care of yourself. Study well, become someone amazing I gently eased her away from me just as someone walked over and said, “Ms. Mayfield, there are some papers that need your signature”
I picked up a pen, briefly glancing at Yuna, who seemed lost in thought. I signed the document quickly and followed the man back to the office, exchanging a few words along the way.
I could tell Yuna had started to reflect and grow, becoming more mature and thoughtful. In a way, it was actually a positive development.
Today, Jace had taken the day off, informing me that he needed two days for personal reasons. I granted his request and reminded him to submit a formal leave request when he returned.
By the end of July, it was time for the salary settlement. I made sure to instruct the HR department to include a bonus for Jace as well.
For the next three days, Yuna visited the hotel whenever she had some free time. Sometimes, she’d take a nap in my office, while other times, she’d wander off. Fortunately, there was a dedicated nanny who stayed with her, so I didn’t have to worry about her safety.
It seemed that Yuna’s frequent visits to my office had started to irritate Susanna.
She called me to a coffee shop outside the hotel, her expression clearly displeased.
“Ms. Lawrence, is there something you’d like to discuss?” I asked, my tone colder than before. Given that Susanna had been pushing for her sister to take over my role, I couldn’t bring myself to be as polite as Lonce was.
I don’t seek to bully others, but that doesn’t mean I’ll let anyone bully me.
Susanna had always been cordial with me, but it was never out of genuine kindness It was simply because I hadn’t yet
sterfered with her interests, and since I was a daughter–in–law with no desires or intentions to cause trouble. Now that those interests were at stake, she saw me as nothing less than an enemy
“Tiffany, Yuna has been insisting on seeing you again and keeps coming to find you. What did you do to her? You and Shawn are griting livorce, you say you don’t want kids, yet you keep drawing Yuna in. It’s honestly ridiculous,” Susanna snapped
me her frustration clear
Thaven’t said anything to her. She came on her own. Are you blaming me for this as well?” I was just as surprised that Yuna had come to sea
Tmost be something you told her You’re her mother, blood runs deep. With just one word from you, she could end up with you You cant take her away if you get divorced.” Susanna snapped, her voice rising with anger. “She’s our family s only child now, and you won’t take her unless I’m dead”
