    Chapter 495 Yvonne’s Mutiny


    Only through Yvonne’s phone call did Veronica know about this matter. “Roni, where are you? Are you


    alright?”


    Yvonne sounded anxious on the phone, like she had discovered something shocking. “What’s wrong?”


    Veronica was spread out on her bed, applying a coldpress to her cheeks to reduce swelling.


    “You’re asking me what’s wrong?! Didn’t you watch the news?!” Yvonne was furious. “Why didn’t you tell


    me about such a huge issue? You can alwayse and work in mypany if you can’t find a job. So,


    why bother selling cars and suffering such indignity?”


    After Yvonne watched the video, she felt terrible for Veronica. Deep down, she thought that it was really


    a waste for Veronica to be a car salesperson with her capabilities.


    “I’m lying down and resting. I don’t have time to watch the news.”


    Veronica reached out and touched her cheek. Although she could feel it was still swollen due to the


    stinging pain she felt when she applied pressure to her cheek, she grinned and replied lightheartedly. “It’s


    okay. I’m doing quite well. You don’t have to worry about me.”


    “I—”


    Just as Yvonne was about to say something, Conrad, who was hugging her, hinted at her. At once,


    Yvonne understood and said, “Of course, I’m worried about you, but I’m more worried about my son.


    Look: you had an excellent rtionship with Matthew before, yet he’s now driving you to a dead end


    merely because you pped Sasha. What about my son? Will Matthew really do anything to my son?”


    Yvonne was genuinely concerned about Ian’s safety.


    Matthew treated Veronica very kindly before because she had rescued Old Mrs. Kings and was his


    godsister.


    But Matthew isn’t directly rted to Ian, so he has no reason to help Ian at all.


    What’s more: I’m worried that Matthew will use Ian to threaten Conrad one day.


    Not only is Conrad the father of my child, but he also has a terminal illness now, so I must protect them.


    Meanwhile, Veronica didn’t know how to answer after she listened to Yvonne’s words.


    My break up with Matthew was simply a show, and because of that, I could understand Matthew’s


    problematic situation. But it’s different for Yvonne. She doesn’t know the truth, so how can she


    understand Matthew’s intention?


    “Although that b*stard isn’t as kind as we thought, he won’t go as far as to murder a child. Think about it:


    how can you give birth to the child so smoothly if he wants to kill your son?”


    Veronica enlightened Yvonne, hoping that she wouldn’t overthink the matter.


    “You can say that, b-but… I’m still worried.” Yvonne sighed. “Prior to this, you and Matthew just called it


    off, and your rtionship with him wasn’t this terrible. But, now that you two are on terrible terms with


    each other, I’m truly worried for my son’s safety.”


    At the same time, Conrady beside Yvonne and hugged her. While he had an ear to the words Yvonne


    said to Veronica, he smiled and yed with a strand of her hair in front of her chest, curling it around his


    finger.


    It sure took me a lot of time and effort to put up a show so that I could gain Yvonne’s trust and find out


    where the child was.


    Now that everything’s going ording to n, victory is within my grasp!


    On the other end of the phone, Veronica could understand Yvonne’s anxious mood. “Yvonne, although


    Matthew indeed pushed me to a dead end, I think he’s more of a gentlemanpared to Conrad.”


    Since there was something that she couldn’t be frank with Yvonne about, Veronica could only indirectly


    tell her.


    Initially, she thought that Yvonne would trust Matthew. But God knew what had happened to her, and she


    suddenly changed her mind. “Roni, I-I want to… bring my child back.”


    When she said those words, she looked up and nced at Conrad, who was in front of her. Then, she


    wrapped her arms around his waist and rubbed her face against his chest.

    Now that Conrad was seriously ill, all that she wanted was for Ian toe back and stay by Conrad’s


    side.


    She thought maybe in this way, Conrad would live longer.


    “You—do you want to rethink it?” Veronica tried to press her.


    “No. I had thought about it clearly.” Yvonne gave her exact answer.


    Ever since she knew that Conrad was ‘ill’, all that she could think of every day was that she wanted to


    bring Ian back from Matthew’s side.


    It just so happened that she had a logical and sensible reason for her to do so after something happened


    to Veronica today.


    Yvonne was worried that if she didn’t seize the opportunity now, she didn’t know when it would be the


    next time she wished to bring the child back from Matthew’s side.


    Meanwhile, Veronica felt rather helpless when she knew that her persuasion had failed. “Since you have


    thought about it clearly, then contact him yourself. I have lost contact with Matthew and don’t wish to see


    him again.”


    Veronica didn’t dare to tell Yvonne the truth. As the saying goes, caution is the parent of safety. I still


    have to watch what I say, even in front of Yvonne.


    It’s not that I suspect Yvonne, but I’m worried that someone will purposely approach her to gain


    information or inquire about my rtionship with Matthew through Yvonne.


    The consequences will be disastrous if someone finds out that Matthew and I are still keeping in touch.


    “Oh, okay then.”


    Yvonne breathed a sigh of relief the moment Veronica gave in to her request, and there was a faint smile


    on her face that couldn’t be concealed. Then, she continued. “Actually, Roni, you can just quit your job in


    the automobile shop ande to work at Honeycloud Cosmetics Limited. I have a lot of positions that


    are suitable for you. It’s rather a waste for you to work as a salesperson in an automobile shop.”


    Based on Yvonne’s understanding of Veronica, she felt that Veronica was a well-rounded person, and


    one should not underestimate her sales ability. Therefore, it was a waste of talent to use her ability in an


    automobile shop. Thus, instead of letting her continue working in the automobile shop, Yvonne believed


    it was better for Veronica toe to herpany and hold the position of sales manager. She felt that


    only in that way Veronica could truly shine and have a bright future awaiting her.


    “Yvonne, I appreciate your kindness, but I think I’m doing fine here. It’s gettingte, and I want to rest.


    We’ll talk about it tomorrow if anything else happens.”


    “Okay, then I’ll go find Matthew tomorrow. Can—you apany me?” Yvonne begged Veronica. “I’m


    afraid Matthew wouldn’t want to let my son go if you don’t go with me. What shall I do then?”
