Chapter 478 Persuading Us to Break Up
Madam Young specially came over looking for me?N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.
After a moment of hesitation, I opened the exquisite box before me. Inside was a green silk ribbon. finely crafted and obviously valuable. There was
also a beautifully designed invitation card beside it.
An invitation card?
I hesitated for a few seconds before opening the card. It was an invitation to Idris and Alice''s wedding, featuring a cartoon bride and groom in ce of
their wedding photo.
Looking at the invitation card in my hand, I did not rush to speak and remained silent, focusing on the wedding date. May 18th was less than two
weeks away. Why the rush and why this date? I wondered who picked it.
After a long silence, I looked at Madam Young and smiled faintly. "Thank you for your gift. I really like it. Also, congrattions to Mr. Young and Ms.
Cruz.”
Madam Young had seemingly been observing my reaction all along. Upon hearing my words, she nodded slightly and said, "In theory, Iddy''s wedding
shouldn''t concern you, but the Youngs and the Scotts have been friends for many years. So, I still hope you cane. Alice also said that your
presence would be greatly appreciated as a blessing to their union.”
I pursed my lips, forcing a smile. "I can''t guarantee whether I can attend the wedding, but I will send my blessings to them.”
She nodded and made a thoughtful sound before continuing, "Alice is pregnant now and can''t move around much. She worries a lot. Yvette, you and
Iddy were once a married couple, after all. Although you''re no longer together, Iddy still has unique feelings for you. You''re a good girl. Now that
you''ve separated, each of you should lead your own lives. Can you..."
"I won''t have any further involvement with him, Grandma, rest assured.” I interrupted, feeling a lump in my chest that made it hard to breathe. Still. I
maintained a smile on my face. "Don''t worry, I won''t stay in Lake City for too long."
Hearing my words, Madam Young
felt relieved. Then, perhaps thinking
she had been too overbearing, she
ooked at mewith concern and said,
"Yvette, dontoverthink it. I don''t NS
want to force you to leave Lake City.
just thought it would be bette Yor
everyone. Alice is different from you.
She-fias experienced a life of
Hardship with her mother:since
childhood. She has suffered a lot
over the years. Now, after finding out
about her father''s death, her life
story is truly pitiful. It was a
coincidence for her to find out about
it through Iddy''s father. This is also a
way to let her father rest in peace."
In all her subtle words, I understood what Madam Young was determined te do: she wanted to take Alice into the Youngs’ care tofort herself over
her deceased son.
Understanding her intentions, I had nothing to say. After all, what right did I have to intervene in this matter? I had my own path to walk, so why
involve myself?
Perhaps due to a sense of
indebtedness toward me, Madam
Young had MrsZachary hand me a
bank card, sdying, "Inside here is the
ie fram all the projects the =>
Youngs have in Tully. The dividends
are paid every April. Although it''s not
a lotif Scott Corporation faces any
trotible, this money can also help
you out. However, I hearebfrom your
mother that you''ve already handed
over all matters rted to Scott
Corporation. So, if you take this
money, it can at least allow you to
live your life freely.” Content belongs

Looking at the bank card in front of me, I hesitated for a few seconds and could not help but smile. It seemed that Madam Young liked to use money
to solve her problems. Well, money could indeed solve 99% of life''s problems.
I pursed my lips and pushed the bank card back, saying, "I don''t need it. thank you. I divorced Idris a long time ago, and we settled all our property
and other matters. You don''t need to worry about what I might do. Between us adults. we should do things with dignity even when parting ways."
She nodded and then suddenly nced at the house. Looking back at me, she said, "Indeed, you''re both adults and should part with dignity. I heard
that this house belongs to Iddy. If you like it, I can arrange to transfer ownership to you. Consider it my gratitude to you. How about that?"
I furrowed my brows and naturally understood the implications behind her words. She must have learned about me staying with Idris for the past two
days. Even though I was forcibly brought here by him, it still crossed the line.
Looking at her, I forced a smile and said, "No need. I have a ce to stay, and I''ll be leaving shortly.”
