Chapter 174 My Daughter-inw
L stared at her in disbelief. What on earth gave her the guts to hit her? Who did she think she was?
How dare she bully her like this? She would not let her get away with this!
"Ynda!" Harry became serious as he quickly grabbed L closer to his side and pushed Ynda
away.
With eyes wide open, Ynda stared at Harry in dismay. Why was Harry protecting L? What kind of
spell did this wrench cast on him?
Harry gently stroked L''s pretty face and frowned when he saw the reddish marks left by Ynda''s
p. "I will ask Joey to send you some ice cubes. You return to work first."
L nodded in agreement, obviously d of Harry''s unexpected concern.
Harry cast a cold nce on Ynda and uttered in a cold voice, "Meet me in my office. I need to have
a word with you."
The office went quiet again when both of them left. L held onto her cheek as it was quite painful.
She thought about her p on Harry''s face. It must be quite painful for him as well.
She calmed down and decided to n her actions. She did not want Ynda around, trying to
sabotage her ns. She really needed to take advantage of every opportunity she had with Harry. She
has to totally sway Harry into choosing her.
In no time, Joey entered the room and gave the ice cubes to her. "Here Miss Li, please put some on
your right cheek. I need to share a secret with you. I overheard her arguing with boss in the office. It
was quite fierce and loud. But I am standing firmly by your side. You need to cheer up!" Joey
encouragingly showed his support and dashed towards L''s desk. He acted swiftly and with purpose,
just like a true assistant.
Lughed and replied, "Fair enough! Thank you for your support. If an opportunity presents itself, I
will make sure to speak good things about you in front of the CEO."
Joey nodded in great appreciation. As far as he knew, the CEO always took L''s words very
seriously. If only Ynda did not get involved, Mr. Si would definitely listen to L all the time.
Joey returned to the CEO''s office and saw Ynda walk out of the room. She was wearing a pair of
sunsses.
Inside the room, Harry was standing still, seeming looking out the window and deeply lost in thoughts.
Joey silently closed the door left open by Ynda and returned to his seat at the secretary division to
continue his work.
After a heated argument with his fiance, Ynda returned to Crescent Spring Vi and started packing
her stuff.
Rose heard the noise and curiously went out to see what was happening. She caught Ynda packing
her clothes into the suitcase as she was wiping away her tears in great sadness.
She walked up to her and asked her in a calming tone, "What''s wrong, Ynda?"
Ynda momentarily nced away from her to wipe her eyes, then turned around and forced a smile.
"I am okay, Auntie. Now that my job is done here, I need to leave for D City anyway."
Rose looked at Ynda and noticed that most of her rashes had disappeared. "Then why are you
crying? Was it because of Harry?"
Ynda paused and hesitatingly nodded "Auntie, I am scared that my rtionship with Harry is over."
The thought almost killed her and she broke down into tears.
Rose quickly pulled her into her arms and said, "Please tell me everything. What happened? I will try
my best to help you out!"
She knew it had something to do with that wrench!
Ynda used some tissues to wipe her teary eyes and carried on, "Auntie, I am really in love with
Harry. I have never felt these kind of emotions in my life. I do not what to do if I can''t be with him."
"I know. Haven''t I told you already... That you must be my daughter-inw!" Rose brought more tissues
to her.
Ynda tried to calm herself down and was thinking hard on how to exin herself better. "Harry once
said that he only agreed to be engaged to me because of you. He also said that I should step away
from L and avoid having conflicts with her."
She gritted her teeth in great anger as she remembered how cold Harry was treating hertely. With all
these harsh remarks, he treated her almost like a stranger!
He was behaving like this all because of that girl!
Rose looked at Ynda''s sad face and felt her pain. However, she did not know what to say to her. She
could only threaten her son with her life. But wasn''t that too extreme? She had no other solutions.
"The most horrifying thing is that L always tries to push me to the corner. She is always testing my
limits. I am trying my best to stay away from her. But she would always try to hurt me in any way
possible. What else can I do?" With this, Ynda felt incredibly pressured and wept even harder.
Rose thought about her words and replied, "My dear child, don''t cry anymore. If I say you are the
daughter-inw of the Si family, then you are! If you are leaving, then I shall be leaving with you. I will
go home and tell my husband to arrange a wedding date for you two!"Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.
Ynda felt relieved inside as she wiped her eyes dry. "Thank you auntie. You are truly nice to me!"
She hugged Rose tightly like a little girl.
Rose lovingly patted her on the back while being consumed with mixed emotions.
When she was about to finish her work for the day, L dialed Zoe Lu''s number.
"Ahem, Boss Lu, how are you?" She tried to sound serious in the phone as it was always fun to tease
him.
When Zoe received L''s call, he was just sitting anxiously in his office staring at the documents that
needed his approval.
On hearing L''s voice, he felt delighted and quickly forgot about all his worries.
"What boss? Stop it! I am not a real boss. Can''t you see that I''m not even busy at the moment. Anyway,
why did you call me? You know how rare I receive a call from you." Zoe added.
L broke into a smile, "Don''t be mad. I was busy myself. How about a drink tonight? It''s on me! You
know I''m always up for it. Any drink you want!" She patted on her thigh in excitement. "Ouch..." That
hurts a lot! She gently rubbed her thigh to ease the pain.
Andrew stepped into the office and happened to see a rare and genuine smile spread over Zoe''s face.
He raised his eyebrows in surprise and had a vague idea who he might be talking to. But he said
nothing and sat down on the sofa to wait for Zoe to finish the call.
"No problem. Just let me know the time and the ce." Zoe said with an obvious tone of excitement.
Zoe noticed that his father went in and his smile disappeared. He quickly changed his tone into a
whisper.
L thought for a moment and replied, "How about Lux Bar? I will be off from work around six and will
be there at half past six. Will that be okay?"
"No problem. Deal! I need to go now. Talk to youter." Zoe agreed without hesitation. Anything that
L wanted, he wouldply.
Zoe hung up the phone and stared at his father. The anxieties and the worries came back all of a
sudden.
"What can I do for you?" His tone sounded stiff.
Andrew sensed a discouraged tone but he was not offended. He knew Zoe too well. Instead, he smiled
gently. "L called?" He had a strong hunch.
Zoe put away the documents from the desk and ignored him.
This irritated Andrew greatly as he shouted at him in anger, "I am your father. What kind of attitude you
have here!"
Such a rebellious child! I should have abandoned him when he was still young!
And his vile mother, too! She seduced him. That was the only reason why he had a child. He never
wanted this!
"Well, I did ask how would I be of help to you. You did not answer me and now you me me for my
attitude?" Zoe agitatedly threw the documents aside. He was not in a good mood whenever he saw
anyone from the Lu family.
Andrew mmed his fist hard on the desk and pointed at him in great anger. "Zoe! The only reason
that you are now sitting in this luxury CEO chair is because of me!"
Zoe stood and gazed deeply at his so-called father and scornfully replied, "I don''t care. If you want to
take it back, be my guest!"
"You don''t care?" "If only the other two sons of mine are useful, I would never let you take charge of the
company!" Andrew sarcastically added. He had his reasons. He would hate to see thepany fall
into other people''s hands. He had to acknowledge Zoe as his son. He just had no other choice.
"Oh father, thank you so much for appreciating me for who I am. A CEO who did not even do anything
to deserve what he got." He put his hands into the pockets of his grey suit trousers and leaned against
the desk.
Andrew was utterly shocked that he could not say anything back. He pointed at the indifferent Zoe in
dismay. What a bastard!
