Chapter 220 Mountainside Family Reunion
- Yvette was at last relieved when she got the telegram in Kingbourne. She didn't want to answer when she saw Ewan's missed call in her inbox. The Empathy Clinic's profit was too good to pass up. It just so happened that her mountain relatives were begging for money again. Given that they were aware of her secrets, her real family was the real bloodsucker in comparison to Ewan. Yvette could not ignore them any longer. Over the phone, Fanny's voice sounded anxious. When are you coming to meet us, Yvette? In the village, people are inquiring about that girl once more. I cannot continue to live in dread, nor can your father. Would you mind taking us away from the village?
- Yvette's thoughts whirled. "Mom, I recall that the son of the village chief has been seeking a wife." Fanny felt uncomfortable about bringing up this subject. "But you weren't interested in getting married, and now he's showing interest in you." Yvette gave a little laugh. He's just attracted to beauty, Mom. You don't realize how beautiful your alleged daughter is. "Really?" Fanny became intrigued. "So what about—" Yvette cut her off. "No one will dare to interfere in our business if this marriage actually happens and the village leader supports our family. In town, you'll be able to hold your head high. Gary will also have solid employment opportunities. Fanny candidly acknowledged, "But your father and I are still keen on going to the city." "The villas there are luxurious," Gary said.
- Yvette let out a long sigh. "I also wanted to take you all to the city." The Yates family, however, is currently insolvent. Uncle Ewan is in hiding, and Aunt Wanda has been put in jail. I'm even being pursued by debt collectors. I fear that I will simply bring you down. "Is that correct?" Fanny gasped. "But everything was all right." Yvette forced a face of sadness. "That's the way things are in the city. There are a lot of unknowns. Nothing compares to the tranquility and security found in the countryside. When Fanny heard this, her demeanor changed dramatically. "Yvette, you're quite correct. You look for yourself. I'll be going to the city shortly with your dad!
