Chapter 358


    "Well, you must be tired now. Just rest. My chauffeur i s waiting downstairs. By the way, don’t forget to


    take the supplements that I bought for you. And your grandma has returned from Athana. She looks full


    of beans judging by how loud she lectures people." Apparently, Mark was showing her the door. Yvette


    stood up from the settee.


    "Okay."


    As Yvette emerged from the apartment, she thought of the telephone call she received in the morning;


    Ms. Moore wasining and expressing her dissatisfaction with her and Ronald.


    When Ms. Moore suffered from a cerebral hemorrhage and underwent treatment in Athana, Ronald


    had never visited her. It was undeniably unbing of him as a son-inw.


    Now that Ms. Moore was back from Athana, Ronald had to go to Norwood, no matter what.


    She took out her mobile phone, dialed the number, and pressed the call button. There was no answer.


    Anger boiled inside Yvette. Since he did not pick up her call, she would keep calling until he answered.


    The call finally got through after six or seven


    attempts, and she heard heavy breathing at the other end. 1


    "What are you doing? Why did you only pick up after s o long? I have been trying to call you for seven


    times!” Yvette was upset.


    "I am busy with documentation work. Someone ising for an inspection tomorrow. Please cut it


    short if you have anything to say." Ronald''s voice was a little hoarse.


    Yvette sensed something amiss. "What’s the matter with your voice? You sound like you have a frog in


    your throat."


    "I have caught a cold. Just cut to the chase. What’s u p?" Ronald urged.


    "How could you catch a cold on such a hot day? I wonder how you take care of yourself. Do you want


    me to go to Grudin North to take care of you?"


    "You are run down yourself and may not get used to the weather here. I will feel bad if you fall sick. Just


    stay in the Valentine mansion. I will make time to go home."


    Ronald apparently just wanted to brush her off. But Yvette had fallen for his sweet talk and not sensed


    anything amiss. Her initial anger had dissipated." Whatever you say. By the way, my mom is back from


    Athana. Make time to visit her in Norwood. Or else, she would be angry.” "All right. Is there anything


    else? If not, I will hang up."


    "Okay, remember-"


    The line went dead before Yvette could finish her sentence. But at the moment he hung up, Yvette


    faintly heard a female voice calling Ronald. The voice was tender as the murmur of rain.


    She shook her head, thinking she must have imagined it. 1


    Ronald had been treating her better than previously for the past four years. Sometimes he would return


    every couple of months, although he would not stay overnight in the Valentine mansion. He would also


    go shopping with her, have dinner with and buy clothes for her. Even the press in Norwood reported


    they were a model couple.


    The next day


    Summer woke up early, freshened up, and then took a taxi to the apartment. Maria, who answered the


    door, immediately knew that Summer was Charlotte''s mom. 1


    Charlotte was ying with Kaka when she heard Summer''s voice. She rushed over and hugged her

    legs. "Mommy!"


    Summer carried her up in her arms and thanked Maria before sitting down on the settee with Charlotte.
