Chapter 119
The menacing darkness in Hayden’s eyes ebbed away slightly, revealing a trace of tenderness. In his line of vision, Yvonne, who was as strikingly beautiful as a night elf, was smiling while defly managing everything in her vicinity.
She had delicate features, especially those lively big eyes that seemed to speak valumes.
Beneath her dainty nose, her rosy lips resembled a delectable little cupcake, enticing anyone to have a nibble.
As his eyes moved down, her collarbones were as exquisite as a butterfly, drawing Hayden in so he couldn’t look away.
As
Her sleek, alabaster shoulders and a waist so slender that it seemed one could encircle it with a single hand were equally alluring… Hayden had never before noticed just how sumning she appeared in the color purple.
At this very instant, she carried herself with the grace and nobility of a queen. Her innate cool and captivating charm emanated inadvertently. much like a rare orchid thriving in a secluded valley, overshadowing all that surrounded her.
Even Zachary was amazed. He had seen many beauties before, but never a woman as breathtakingly beautiful as the one before him.
The beauties before, though pretty, always carried a hint of fawning and pride. But there was not a hint of that in Yvonne
She was an embodiment of coldness and purity, existing in a realm of her own as if no mortal man could ever hope to draw her attention anew.
Zachary thought, “What a wonderful woman. truly one to desire. Even in his admiration, he didn’t forget to observe Hayden’s expression.
He noticed the same amazement in Hayden’s eyes as in his own. Zachary was puzzled. How could Hayden have spent so much time with Yvonne and never seen this side of het
He couldn’t help but wonder if it was this marriage that had made Yvonne so disillusioned with love and led her to be in such a state
Lost in his thoughts, Sean leaned over and whispered into Zachary’s car, “There’s someone else in the car.”
Zachary’s heart instantly clenched with unease. He swiftly spun around, his eyes starting about in an attempt to catch a glimpse of who was in the vehide…
Yvonne didn’t come with Hayden, Zachary thought. So she came with another man! Even though he hadn’t seen the man yer, a murderous intent was already rising in Zachary’s heart
Hayden’s thoughts were the same as Zachary’s, Hayden mused, “Yonne declined to show up with me. So, who on earth did she arrive with! And this car. Whose could it possibly bel
Amidst the intense scrutiny. Lucy alighted from the car. Being a smart girl, she had already discerned what those men were ruminating about. Unable to contain herself, she chuckled and remarked. “Wonne, you look stunning. Everyone’s eyes are fixed on you!”
My face stiffened. “Are they just waiting to laugh at me if 1 mess up? Even Joanna is here.” Lucy asked, “Huh? Hayden brought her here?”
“She texted me, informing me to await her vengeance, I responded composedly, I’ve been getting a fair number of such messages recently.
I suspect Sophia must have dispatched a great many similar messages to my moon in the past as well since Joanna was trained by Sophia….
It was under the weight of all this pressure and the sting of such humiliation that my mom, feeling unterly hopeless, made the choice to depart from this world.
“She is insane!” Lucy rolled her eyes. “You haven’t blocked her yet?” I chuckled. “I want to see what else she’s capable of”
Actually, I was eager to understand how Sophia had pushed my mom to the brink of death… I felt compelled to experience is all for myself. Lucy. being unaware of any of this, simply pulled me into the venue.
“Hurry up and get inside! Tonight you’ll definitely be the center of attention! I can’t wait to see that jerk Hayden’s regretful face! Haha! Just thinking about it is so satisfying!”
I knew what
Lucy was hoping for, but I couldn’t bring myself to burst her bubble.
Someone like Hayden, there was no way he’d ever feel regret, especially over me; right now, he looked at me like Fm some sort of monster…
“Let’s put this aside for the moment. Later on, help me track down llert Torres,” I reminded her “Why do you want to find him? the inquired.
“He holds shares in the Jackson Group, and in interested in purchasing them, 1 elaborated.

Lucy suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned to look at ane. “Don’t you already have the most shares?”
Te still short of Bert’s shares,” I said firmly. “It’s not enough to sell the company”
Just as I said that, Zachary walked over “Ms. Jackson, you’re stunning tonight… May I have the honor of being your dance partner?”
Just as he finished speaking. I saw Hayden standing behind him. “Sorry, I already have a dance partner, I snapped back to reality and bluntly rejected Zachary,
Lucy was next to me, covering her mouth and gizzling. Zachary noticed my look and deliberately raised his voice to ask, “Oh Could it be Mr.
Parker!”
of coine
course not. I responded with a straightforward answer, heading into the venue with Lucy
As we pasard by Hayden, I deliberately avoided eye contact, acting as if he was invisible.
Soon, Lucy leaned in close to my car and whispered, ‘Did you see that? Hayden couldn’t take his eyes off you” I give a cool smile, not concerned at all, and started scanning the room.
Bert was a close friend of my grandfather, Back in the day, they built the company together. Later, Bert quit after achieving great success, and my grandfather gave him some shares of the Jackson Group
In other words, if I want to sell Jackson Group, Ineeded Bert’s approval
As I entered. I caught sight of numerous familiar faces and greeted them in turn. Eventually, I succeeded in spotting Bert, with his grizzled hair and wrinkled face, among the throng.
“Mr. Torres.” I walked over with my wine glass and greeted him with a smile.
Bert turned around and recognized me right away. “Oh, it’s you, Yvonne! It’s been a while, and you haven’t changed much since you were a kid?”
-Given his advanced age, everyone probably seemed like a youngster to him. “You’re still hale and hearty, Mr. Torres I responded with encouragement. Since there weren’t many people in the vicinity as of yes, I seized the opportunity to clarify the purpose of my visit.
Bert’s smile suddenly froze. “You want to sell the Jackson Group! That’s your grandfather’s legacy!”
He was pretty upset the older generation went through so much to build their businesses, intending to pass them down. No one waedws to give
that up.
I had predicted his reaction before 1 came, so I wasn’t nervous. I just sighed and said, “Mr. Torres, you must have heard about our family situation. My dad plans to leave the Jackson Group to his son, so it really won’t concern me anymore.”
With just those words, most of his anger was diffused. He gritted his teeth and sighed. This company was left to you by your grandfather, and your father should have some shares too. Does he know you’re doing this?”
“He’s not my father anymore.” I said casually, as if it was just regular comenation, not important at all
Het was completely stunned… He never expected the jackson family to have ended up in such a mess
“Yvonne, I’m sure you have your reasons for doing this, but as an old friend of your grandpa, I can’t just watch you sell off his business.”
Bert’s refusal made me frown. It seemed that I had to put in some extra effort. Just then, Hayden walked over and said. “Mr. Torres, we’re willing to buy your shares at a high price.”
