Abandoned by All I Took It All Back novel Chapter 48

Thinking about it, Yvonne's tone became more impatient.

"He still has feelings for Janina, what can I do? If he found out I drugged him, that door would be closed forever. I can't take that risk."

Silvia grew anxious. She was counting on her daughter to secure Julius so she could enjoy a life of luxury. "Listen to me. Next time, drug him. No man can resist that. You have to become his woman, only then will he truly commit to you."

Yvonne shifted her position and murmured, "I know. We'll see about it next time."

Sensing her daughter's lack of enthusiasm, Silvia thought she'd give her another reminder.

"Don't let this chance slip away again. Last time, you were so caught up chasing that other guy that you overlooked Julius. And look how that turned out — you didn't end up with the one you wanted, and the one you brushed off turned out to be quite a catch. Seriously, Yvonne, don't overthink it this time. A man's financial stability is his biggest strength. He still has feelings for you, so you should lock him down before it's too late."

The mention of this only soured Yvonne's mood further.

In high school, a transfer student named Hugh Locke had arrived. The moment she saw him, she had fallen for him completely.

Hugh was tall, handsome, smart, came from a good family, and dressed well. Everything about him was exactly her type.

That incredibly handsome face of his was unforgettable.

Many girls had a crush on Hugh. But Hugh never gave any of his admirers the time of day.

Back then, Julius paled in comparison to Hugh. In terms of looks or family background, the Aurelius family couldn't compete.

Even though she knew Julius liked her, she had always kept him at arm's length, never giving him a clear answer.

After high school graduation, Hugh went to Meridia, and she resolutely followed him abroad.

But things didn't go as planned.
