Chapter 1539
"Vanessa, Yvette is my best friend''s daughter. I treat her just like my own daughter! To Julien, she''s
only a younger sister, and he doesn''t have any romantic feelings for her." Karen didn''t know if Yvette
had said anything to Vanessa, but she had to dere her stand. Karen absolutely wouldn''t allow her
future daughter-inw to feel threatened in her own home.
Vanessa smiled politely and replied, "Mrs. Kyle, I''ve heard Julien mention Yvette before. I know that
they grew up together and are very close, just like siblings. If I have the chance, I wish to be friends
with a beautiful girl like her."

In fact, Julien had never mentioned Yvette to her. Vanessa lied because she did not want the elders
to worry about her. At first, she was upset from Yvette''s provocation. However, after some thought,
she came to a realization.
If Julien truly had feelings for Yvette, Yvette wouldn''t have been so anxious to the point of asking
her mother toe over and ask for confirmation.
Furthermore, the Kyle family had clearly stated their stance. They epted her and Lawrie. As for
Yvette, if she liked Julien, no one could stop her. Thinking from a different perspective, Vanessa''s
mood instantly lifted. She decided not to take what had happened to heart.
"Silvia, aren''t you going to sleep with Vanessa and the kids? It''s gettingte. Go to bed early," said
Karen.
Silvia and Vanessa nodded. "Okay."
Looking at the backs of the twodies, Karen nodded with satisfaction. Her sons had good tastes
indeed. Their wives were not only beautiful, but also well-educated and filial.
At the same time, Yvette''s reluctant gaze before she left shed across Karen''s mind. She couldn''t
help feeling a little uneasy. She could only hope that Yvette would think things through and not be
obsessed with someone who did not belong to her.
After getting into the car, Yvette''s anger immediately erupted. "Mrs. Spencer, are you even my real
mother?"
Faye replied with a solemn face, "What did you just say to me? Say it again."
"I said I wanted to stay with the Kyles for the night. Why did you pull me away?"
In the past, no matter how petnt Yvette was, her parents and brother would always let her do
whatever she wanted. This time, her mother finally showed her displeasure.
Seeing how unrepentant Yvette was and how she med everything on her, Faye was heartbroken.
"I''ve told you before that Julien has no feelings for you. Yet you refused to listen to me and keep
pining after him. Are you happy to see me losing my best friend of decades?"
Yvette bit her lip. She said as if she had been wronged, "How am I inferior to Vanessa?"
"Just by saying that, you are already inferior to her." After her stern scolding, Faye softened her
tone again. "Yvette, listen carefully. Love is a two- sided thing. A onesided love is pointless. Also, it''s
not about who is better. When you love or don''t love someone, you don''t need a reason. Take Kevin
for example. At that time, he was such a perfect man. A lot of women were dying to marry him, but I
have never had any interest in him."
"There''s only Auntie Karen in Uncle Kevin''s eyes. Even if you liked him, there''s no way you could
win his heart.
Faye nodded. "That''s true. Kevin''s heart only belonged to Karen. Even if there were many women
who were better than Karen in this world, he would never set his eyes on them. That''s because his
heart was already filled with Karen. No matter how great any other women were, to him, they were
nothing and didn''t worth his attention."
"But I..."
Faye interrupted Yvette, "Do you want to say that you are different from others because you grew
up with Julien? It''s true that our families have a good rtionship. Are you wondering why you
couldn''t be together with him given all the advantages you have? Let me tell you, that''s because he
only treats you as his sister."
"I don''t want to be his sister. I just want to be his lover."
Faye replied furiously, "Yvette, if you still want to maintain your friendship with Julien, you have to
push all your nonsensical thoughts away and see him as your brother. If not, feel free to do
whatever you want. I''ll not acknowledge you as my daughter."
Yvette turned her head away, turning a deaf ear to Faye''s advice.
Once again, Faye softened her tone. "There are still many good men in this world. Don''t be a
shameless woman who only knows how to steal someone else''s man. You''ll just be looked down
upon by others. Besides, you are an outstanding woman. As long as you get over him, you will
definitely meet your Mr. Right one day."
Yvette took a deep breath. She insisted, "Yes, there are a lot of men in the world. But too bad, my
heart is set on a man I can''t have. It''s not like I want to feel this way either, but I can''t control myself.
Just like what you said, there''s no reason for loving someone."
Faye was rendered speechless by Yvette''s retort. After a long pause, she finally said, "Let me ask
you then, do you think it''s right for you to steal someone else''s man?"
"I''m not stealing anyone''s man, I just want a fairpetition." Yvette turned to look at Faye. "Mom,
just because I am your daughter and Auntie Karen is your best friend, you''re going to strip me of my
right to pursue happiness?"
"If it weren''t for my rtionship with Karen, would you even have the chance to know Julien? And
would Julien even know who you are?"
Yvette said in a cold manner, "At the end of the day, your best friend is still the most important
person to you."
Faye''s anger exploded. She pped Yvette hard on the face. "You..."
Yvette raised her head and said frigidly, "Just hit me. It''s even better if you hit me to death. So that I
don''t have to suffer anymore. So that I don''t want to stand idly by while the man I love marries
someone else."
Faye was breathing heavily. "Tell me, what do you n to do?"
"If it weren''t for our close rtionship with the Kyle family, I would''ve done something to that woman
a long time ago. She should thank her lucky stars that she''s still allowed to be Julien''s girlfriend right
now." Yvette gritted her teeth as she spoke. Her usually adorable appearance had be a little
sinister, and even Faye was shocked to see this side of her. "Yvette, if you dare act recklessly, I will
disown you."
"I can''t believe you are willing to disown your daughter because of your best friend. I would like to
have a best friend like you too."
Just when Faye raised her hand to hit her again, she stopped when she saw the provocative look
on Yvette''s face. She then ordered the driver, "Stop the car."
The driver immediately pulled over.
Pointing at the car door, Faye said, "Get out."
