Mark put the phone on speaker as he took a left turn." Hey mom, is anything going on?"
"Yes, and it's really important. It's urgent, so get back t o the Valentine mansion for a while." Yvette sounded rushed.
"I have an important meeting to attend. I'll go back after I'm done with work." He looked over to the time and responded flatly.
However, Yvette was not having it. "I can't wait that long. If you don't have time to come home, I'll go to your office."
Mark furrowed his brows as he hung up and took another turn, driving back to the Valentine mansion.
Over there, Yvette had been waiting in the living room for a long time. As soon as Mark walked in, she showed him the report without saying anything else.
Mark was sitting on the couch with his legs crossed. H e flipped the pages of the report as his expression started to change. He then asked in a deep voice, "Why do you have these things?"
Yvette chuckled coldly, sitting at the opposite of him." I have never wanted to investigate her. Her birth was a n accident. What I investigated was Ronald and
Samantha, that cunning woman!"
Mark could hear the unusualness in her words, starting to understand the situation.
"Ronald’s been having an affair behind my back, and the woman is Samantha Blake. They were both caught red-handed by me!"
Mark's lips were forced into a straight line. He swallowed and kept quiet as he clenched the report tighter in his hand.
"Oh Mark, he has another woman behind my back. What did I do to him?! Also, because of that woman, he asked for a divorce..."
Yvette sobbed in front of her son as she finally let up all the pent-up anger in her heart.
Mark's eyes were slightly narrowed as he watched her shoulders tremble. He stood up and gave her a hug as he slowly closed his eyes.
Yvette was crying her lungs out. It was completely different from her outburst last time. This time, she was in a lot of pain. Her tears were streaming down her face unendingly as she held onto Mark’s shirt.
"I gave him two sons and took care of the house for so many years. Not once did I ever complain, but how did he treat me?"
Yvette got even more upset when she spoke. She was crying so hard that she could not breathe. It looked like she was having a really hard time.
Mark placed his big hands on her back as he gently patted her. His face was also clouded with darkness with his brows knitted.
"Oh Mark, I have such a miserable life. All these years, I've been watching over the mansion like a dog. But he was having the time of his life outside, enjoying himself! Who does he think he is?!"
Yvette held her fists up and started hitting her chest, which felt extremely tight. She was out of breath, but she wanted to release everything.
"Also, leave Summer. Stop getting back together. She i s Samantha's daughter, you know. Her biological daughter!”
His voice was as deep as the sea when he replied," That is my business. I know what to do."
"Mark, Samantha is her biological mother. She is having an affair with your father now, but you still want to be with her daughter? Do you think I haven’t suffered enough? You just want to take a knife and stab my heart a few times. Leave her!"
If he did not, she would really go insane. The old witch was with Ronald, and the young witch was with her son. How could she continue to live?! 1
