Yennefer couldn’t bear to see Yvette crying, so she had no choice but to pretend to be Yvette’s mother to comfort the child.
She understood what Yvette was feeling at that moment since Josephine had gone through the same thing when the latter’s parents passed away.
Yvette, upon thinking that Yennefer was really her mother, hugged Yennefer tightly and cried sadly. “Mommy, don’t leave me and Daddy anymore, okay?”
“Okay, I promise you. I won’t leave you and your daddy.”
While speaking. Yennefer gently released Yvette so that she could wipe off the latter’s tears.
Yvette’s eyes had a dazed look to them as if she was dreaming. A smile appeared on her face.
“Mommy, do you know that I’ve been waiting for this day to come for a long time?” she asked happily.
Yennefer felt uneasy upon seeing Yvette act like that..
Christopher looked at Yennefer gratefully, and his affection for her became deeper and deeper.
“Yennefer is so kind. She’s willing to pretend to be Amelia just to comfort Yvette. No wonder Yvette likes her so much” thought Christopher.
He passed the medicine he was holding in his hand to Yennefer.
Yennefer took the medicine and looked at Yvette. Her voice was still gentle when she said, “Yvette, here. Take the medicine. You’ll get better after taking it.”
“No. I don’t want to take them!” Yvette pushed Yennefer’s hand away and turned her head the other way.
“Don’t be a bad girl, Yvette. Yennefer pretended to be angry.
“I don’t want to take medicine. I don’t want to get better.”
“Why don’t you want to get better?” asked Yennefer. She was curious as to why Yvette would say that.
“Because all of this is just an illusion from my fever. When I get better, you will disappear again. Mommy,” answered Yvette sadly.
Yennefer felt like a knife had sliced through her heart when she heard Yvette’s answer. She was so incredibly heartbroken. She really liked Yvette even though they had only met each other a few times.
Yvette reminded Yennefer of herself and Josephine when they were little.
Yennefer was moved by Yvette’s words.
She smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Yvette. When you get better, you will see me all the time.”
“Really?” Yvette looked at Yennefer in surprise.
“Yes. Really.” Yennefer nodded.
“You’re not lying to me?” Yvette asked again.
“I’m not.”
“Okay. Pinky promises that you’re not lying to me, then.” Yvette’s pinky finger was already up in the air. Yennefer knew that she had no choice but to go along with Yvette seeing as the little girl was serious about it.
Without any hesitation, she went to hook Yvette’s pinky finger with hers.
Then, Yvette jook the medicine without any fuss and soon fell asleep soon.
“Thank you, Yennefer Christopher looked at Yennefer gratefully. “Yvette has always wanted a mother. It’s my fault for not taking good care of her.”
“Mr. Hayes, don’t be a stranger. I can’t bear to make a cute kid like Yvette sad. Besides, she’s sick, Yennefer said while Siniling
“Yennefer, you can call me ‘Christopher‘ since we’re friends. It feels so weird to me when I hear you call me ‘Mr. Hayes,” said Christopher, not wanting her to call him “Mr. Hayes” anymore.
“Okay.” Yennefer didn’t refuse.
Anyway, they were just business partners.
They would rarely see each other after the contract had been settled.
“I’ll treat you to dinner when Yvette is better.” Christopher knew what Yennefer was thinking.

“Does she really think that we won’t see each other anymore after the contract has been signed? No woman I have ever set my sights on will be able to escape so easily.” mused Christopher.
“Okay.” Yennefer thought that she would go along with him, then find an excuse to not go to the dinner when the time came.
Christopher’s face lit up with rarely–seen joy when he heard her answer.
“Okay. It’s a deal, then.”
“Yup. It’s a deal.” Yennefer smiled slightly.
“By the way, I have some work to do. If you don’t have anything urgent, can you take care of Yvette for me?” asked Christopher.
He just wanted to find an excuse to make Yennefer stay.
Yennefer nodded. “Okay. Go now. I happen to be free today”
“That’s great. Thank you.”
Then, Christopher left, leaving Yennefer in the ward to take care of Yvette.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Winnie was looking around nervously, for fear of being seen. “Didn’t I tell you that we’re over? What are you doing here?”
She was on the way to the hospital, with Samantha accompanying her, to do a prenatal checkup.
They had forgotten to bring something, so Samantha had gone back to get it.
Winnie never expected that the man before her would come to find her.
“I’ve been looking for you for a long time, Winnie.” He looked Winnie up and down and asked happily, “Winnie, are you pregnant? Is it mine? Oh, my God. I’m going to be a father!”
Winnie was afraid that the man would ruin her plan, so she hurriedly pushed him away. “The baby is not yours. We have broken up. Don’t bother me anymore.”
The man was angered by Winnie’s words, and his face instantly darkened. “Winnie, you were the one who wanted to be with me in the first place. Who gave you the right to break up with me first? Only 1 can say whether we’ve broken up or not!”
Winnie was afraid that Samantha would overhear their conversation, so the former decided that it was more important to send the man away. “Please go first. I’ll explain everything to you later, okay?”
“No! Tell me now! Is the baby mine?”
The man thought back to the last time they made love to each other and came up with the conclusion that there was a high possibility that the baby was his.
At that moment, a ding came from the elevator door, and Winnie’s face turned pale with fear. She quickly said, “If you really love me, don’t ruin this for me.”
“Who are you? What do you want?” shouted Samantha, who was just walking out of the elevator, upon seeing a man in a scuffle with Winnie.
The man understood that Winnie was going through some hardship when he heard what she had said to him.
At that moment, he pushed Winnie to the floor and snatched away her bag. It was better for Samantha to think that he was a robber rather than someone Winnie knew.
The man immediately ran away after snatching Winnie’s bag.
“Winnie, are you okay?” asked Samantha anxiously. She was actually worried about her grandchild. There was no way she would let anything happen to the grandchild of the Zimmerman family.
“Samantha, iyfurts… Winnie was holding her belly, and her face was pale with pain.
“You’re bleeding!” Samantha was shocked and at a loss for what to do.
Just then, a passerby walked by and immediately called for an ambulance when he realized what was happening.
In the ambulance, Samantha kept comforting Winnie and holding the latter’s hand tightly.
She kept praying in her heart that her grandchild would be okay.
Soon, the ambulance arrived at the hospital, and Winnie was brought into the operating room.
Two hours later, the doors of the operating room opened, and the nurse brought out a baby boy. The nurse informed Samantha that the doctor had no choice but to give Winnie an emergency C–section since her water had broken.
Samantha was so happy that her face was smiling.
Jonathan happened to arrive at that time. He was also happy to see the baby boy in Samantha’s arms.
Chapter 121
He didn’t like Winnie, but he really liked their baby boy from the bottom of his heart.
He finally had his own kid. When the time came, he would tell Winnie that he would raise the boy himself and give her a sum of money to leave them alone.
Soon, Winnie was pushed into a ward on a hospital bed.
Samantha and Jonathan followed her in.
Both of them were looking at the child. They didn’t even spare a glance at Winnie. It was as if she was invisible.
Winnie felt that she was about to explode with anger when she realized that they didn’t care about her lying there on the hospital bed at all.
