Ray told Yvette about everything he had discovered during his investigation. However, he was more curious about the person who’d helped him.

“I’ll let you know if I find out anything new.”

“Thank you.”

As Yvette continued grasping her phone, she felt devastated. She’d only had a hunch previously, and she hadn’t expected it to be true at all. She thought Terrence was dumb for transferring everything they had to someone else.

Seeing that she was done talking on the phone, Xavier asked, “What’s wrong?”

She told him everything, thinking she’d just consider him like a good listener.

“So, what are you planning to do?” Xavier had long known about it. However, he’d never cared in the past.

“I’m going to take back everything that belongs to my family.”

It wouldn’t have mattered as much if Terrence had lost everything due to a business failure. However, it turned out that he’d been scammed instead.

Now, Yvette finally understood why James had made a backup will back then. She figured he must’ve known about Yara’s intentions long ago.

Yvette blamed herself for being a fool and focusing solely on Xavier. Because of that, she’d never known why the Snyders had fallen from grace.

“Yeah. That sounds good.”

Xavier had made up his mind to help her. But it seemed like she didn’t expect him to help her at all. Instead, she said, “You should talk to your mom soon. Get her help with paying the debt off.”

Then, she got out of his embrace. “I’m going to rest now.”

When Xavier’s arms were empty, he tried grabbing her again, but in vain

After she had left, he grabbed his phone. Mark had sent him a message. He’d informed Xavier that he’d dug up Yara’s past and told Ray about it.

Xavier replied, “Got it. I want you to keep your eyes on Yandell Group in secret.”

Mark was lying in his bed. When he received his new task, he was confused. He didn’t know why he needed to watch Yandell Group next.

“Yes, sir,” he immediately replied to Xavier. Then, he put his phone away and sighed. He wondered when they were going to stop pretending to be poor.

The next morning, Yvette contacted Matthew and handed him James‘ will. Then, she told the latter what had happened.

“If we want to get the Snyders‘ assets back, we have to find evidence to prove that Terrence had

transferred everything away. Since it has been so many years, most of the proof must be gone now.”

Yvette knew that too. “In that case, we’ll just have to take our time.”

Since she knew the truth now, she wouldn’t continue letting someone else enjoy everything her father had worked hard for.

“Alright.”

Yvette hired Matthew once more and asked him to help her investigate Yandell Group in secret. Then, she also privately hired someone else to do the same thing.

When she was done arranging everything, it was already noon. After she had her lunch, she felt sleepy and fell asleep by the window.

Suddenly, she felt a breeze on her face, and a tall figure blocked the light in front of her. She dreamt of her childhood–she saw Jeremiah ruffling her hair and gently asking, “Yvvy, why have you fallen asleep?” She opened her eyes in a daze and looked at the man, who looked like Jeremiah. Then, she instinctively said, “Jeremiah…”

Xavier’s hand froze in mid–air. He hadn’t gone to work that day. When he’d realized that Yvette hadn’t come downstairs, he’d decided to check on her. Then, he’d realized that she was sleeping.

“What did you call me?”

Yvette’s vision slowly cleared up, and she immediately returned to her senses. “Sorry. I fell asleep just now and was in a daze.”

Xavier grabbed her shoulders next and slowly tightened his grip. “Call me again!”

Her heart skipped a beat; she was startled by how he was acting at that moment. “X–Xavier… Xav…” she stuttered.
