At first, Bennett couldn’t understand why she had dropped out, but he still told her dotingly, “It’s okay if you don’t want to be a police officer or work at all. I can support you.”
Later, to get close to Colin, Yvonne had to play along with him. Rumors spread that she was his kept woman, and everyone scorned her.
But only Bennett held her gently, telling her with earnest conviction, “As long as you say it’s not true, I’ll believe you.”
Later still, to gain Colin’s trust, she was forced to act as his lover. Somehow, Colin found out about her relationship with Bennett and forced them to break up.
By then, Yvonne had made significant progress in her undercover mission and couldn’t back out. She said many hurtful things to Bennett, calling him sanctimonious for choosing a hard life when he could have been the comfortable Mr. Thompson. She told him a poor man like him could never give her the life she wanted.
Bennett’s father had cheated on his mother and had two illegitimate children, so Bennett had a terrible relationship with him and had grown up in his uncle’s house.
But for her, Bennett went back and bowed his head to his father. He became the heir to the Thompson family, the sought-after Mr. Bennett Thompson.
He had said, “Yvonne, do you regret it? I’ll give you a chance to come back to me. Anything that old man can give you, I can give you too. And I can give you what he can’t.”
When he said those words, the corners of his eyes were red.
Back then, Yvonne’s heart ached so much it felt like it was dying. But she couldn’t answer him, couldn’t even reach out to hold him.
And then, later, later on… the once proud man had even set aside his dignity, pleading with her, his eyes red.
He said, “This thing with him won’t last, right? When you’re tired of playing, you’ll come back, won’t you? Vonnie, please, just look back at me.”
By then, her mission was almost over.
George and Teresa were engrossed in planning Queena’s engagement party, making it even more grand than an actual wedding.
George genuinely doted on his illegitimate daughter, Queena. He had not only secured her future but was also giving her half of the Spencer family’s assets as a wedding gifts. Marrying into the Rogers family was a leap into the highest echelons of society.
But George hadn’t given a single thought to the three children he had with Teresa. Once he was arrested and Nexus Media was investigated, the company would be on the brink of bankruptcy.
Teresa and her children’s futures were completely unsecured.
And yet, Teresa remained blissfully unaware, pouring her heart and soul into planning the wedding for the illegitimate daughter of George and Megan.
Yvonne watched Teresa rushing around and couldn’t help but find it laughable.
