Chapter 111
Beryl gently retracted her hand from Jane, concealing a hint of melancholy in her gaze. She remained silent and assisted Yvette with cleaning up, and Jane promptly joined. In truth, everyone was experiencing an underlying sense of unease.
After a while, some new furniture arrived, which appeared to be of high-end quality at first glance.
“The furniture here is not broken. Why does it need replacing? It is not cheap, right?” one ser vant murmured.
“Isn’t it for welcoming Ms. Violet Yeager?” asked another.
“Whose idea is this? Is this an order from Ms. Violet Yeager? There’s no need to replace it at all,” chimed in some other ser vants.
“I think it is Mr. Yeager’s idea,” one ser vant put forward her opinion.
“Don’t call her Ms. Violet Yeager anymore. From now on, she is Ms. Yeager, which has been deliberately ordered by Mr. Yeager,” another ser vant warned.
“I already feel that she will be difficult to serve even before she arrives… Will our life be smooth? Is she going to boss around us?” They could help to complain.
“Let’s leave it up to fate. After all, she is our boss. Since Mr. Yeager favors her, we mustn’t offend her. Let’s focus on doing our work well.”
The ser vants couldn’t help but whisper while working.
After helping Jane clean up, Beryl accompanied Yvette to relax in the yard.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
The environment was elegant, but no one was in the mood to appreciate it.
“Mom, forget it. It’s fortunate enough that Violet didn’t make us move out.” Beryl said calmly, “As for the future, let’s take it step by step. Who knows who will have the last laugh? Violet has no emotional connection with Dad, and Dad is not a fool. It’s just for the sake of interests.”
“Is there any chance that the situation will change in the future?” Yvette muttered to herself, who suddenly lost her confidence by saying, “Xayah is moving in too. What if Xayah and your father are back together?”
This should be the most worrying problem for Yvette.
“What love can there be for people in their forties or fifties?” Beryl comforted Yvette and continued, “Maybe this Xayah is already remarried because she was still young when she was abandoned by Dad. At that time, she was in her early twenties.”
Beryl made a valid point, and Yvette sighed in relief, feeling somewhat better.
When Beryl returned upstairs, she opened her computer and retrieved the photos of Jack that she had collected yesterday. Beryl flipped through them one by one, feeling an overwhelming sense of unease in her heart.
She couldn’t help wondering, ‘Why did I run away from the marriage?
What a regret!
Is it bad to be the wife of the first conglomerate in the empire?
Many women are desiring for the title. But at that time, Beryl thought Jack wouldn’t attend the wedding and would never compromise. She didn’t want to be abandoned by Jack in front of the whole world, so she tried to escape from the marriage.
Another reason was that the Yancey manor was rumored to be haunted. Beryl had encountered some terrifying posts on forums describing the haunting experiences.
The wealthy family had many secrets, and Beryl didn’t want to die…
Knowing that Jack didn’t live in the old mansion at all and he even attended the wedding held in the church, Beryl couldn’t suppress her regret anymore.
If the wedding had proceeded as planned, perhaps it would be Beryl standing beside Jack, and Violet would have no connection to Jack whatsoever!
Violet embarrassed the Yanceys at the wedding venue and even slapped Jack’s face. But Jack chose not to blame Violet, which indicated Jack’s good-natured personality and that he was an affectionate man and would make a good husband. Beryl thought if she had married Jack that day, maybe Jack would gradually fall in love with her too.
But it was too late. Beryl could only make up for it and find a way to turn the tide.
When Beryl realized Jack and Violet hadn’t got married, Beryl began to make up her mind.
She stood in front of the minor and gased at her reflection Beryl couldn’t help but feel she was also beautiful compared to Dody. There was even a slight resemblance between them in their facial teamies
Then an do came into Beryl mind She would reclaim what belonged to her before!

The Yancey Group
In the president’s office, Jack had already left for the day. Due to his eye condition, he never worked overtime.
Michael was still in the office right now. He had just got an important piece of information that left him shocked.
After hesitating for a while, he finally chaled Jack’s number, as he couldn’t wait until tomorrow.
77e sustion was too important, so it should be reported immediately.
M: Yancey, our competitor, Grande Group, has signed a contract with Alyssa,” Michael exclaimed in shock and regret.
What Jack raised his voice and continued, “How is that possible?” Jack was also rarely shocked.
In the bonful villa of Goldbay Estate, Jack stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with one hand in his pocket and fowned
m. The confirmed it. The contract was signed a week ago, but it seems like Alyssa hasn’t started working at the company yet, answerest Michael.
Didn’t Alyssa say she wouldn’t come to Rheinsville City for development?” Jack put forward his confusion.
Michael med to comfort him and replied, “Well, people’s thoughts can always change.”
Then why is it Grande Group?” Jack was unwilling to accept it.
Michael and, “Because we didn’t express tenti
to sign her, nor did we make any effort to contact Alyssa. If we had contact with her and she was willing to come to Rheinsville City for development, Alyssa would definitely choose our company I seems that Grande Group was more proactive in this matter”

Jack was left speechless
Michael added, “Mr. Yancey, Ive inquired about it. Grande Group offered Alyssa a significantly higher price compared to our chief designer’s annual salary
I can sign Alyssa, I will offer three times that amount, Jack blurted out.
Michael sghest and didn’t know what to say
They be spent a lot of money” Jack couldn’t accept it, ‘Grande Group’s design department has always been formidable, on par with our company. Now with Alyssa joining them, it will be much easier for them to surpass in the market this year”
Jack started to worry.
Michael also sighed and furthered, “We received this information too late. I guess Alyssa doesn’t know much about the Grande Group. In fact, many of their transactions are suspected of being illegal, and everyone in the industry knows it. Still, Grande Group hasn’t threatened anyone, and they are powerful themselves, so no one has taken action against them”
“Alyssa is interested in their design department team, not the company itself” Jack thought for a while and made up his judgment before saying, “Grande Group has several renowned designers. They are highly skilled. This makes them more competitive.”
“Mr. Yancey, I’ll try to see if I can contact Alyssa. It might be difficult, but I will try it. Grande Group will probably keep Alyssa’s information under wraps. She might not even go to the office. No one will know her true identity,” Michael proposed.
“Let’s leave it to fate,” Jack said calmly.
Jack liked Alyssa’s design very much. If other designers could score eight points, hers could score nine points for sure.
In Jack’s eyes, there were still no perfect scores.
“Even though Alyssa has already signed with them, it doesn’t hurt to try it and build a friendship. Who knows, maybe she will consider switching in the future?” Michael began to think positively, “I believe Alyssa will be willing to be friends with you because you understand her designs the best.”
