Mister and Missus Yates were both stunned. Then, the thief came tearing down the lane towards Missus Yates. The thief was a bony man, who looked about as old as Kingston Yates. He had only seen Yvonne's mother, when he reached out and deftly grabbed the necklace on Missus Yate's neck, tugged it, and ran. The whole chain of events took less than two seconds from beginning to end.When Yvonne's parents came to their senses, the thief was running off again.Behind him, a woman ran up to Yvonne's parents panting. She put her hands on her knees, and she gasped for air as she said to Misterand Missus Yates, "What has the world come to, for someone to commit daylight robbery? Call the police!Call the police! Don't let him get away! You saw him clearly!"Yvonne's parents did not say a word. Albeit only for a second or two.However, Yvonne's parents saw who the thief was.Mister Yates could recognize the thief by his bones, even if he had lost his skin. Mister and Missus Yates lo
Mister Yates lamented, "Things never happen if it's not the time, but when they happen, we can't avoid them. Yvonne's an adule now, she should know about it."Missus Yates hesitated, "But I... I'm afraid Yvonne...""She's your own daughter, what are you afraid of?" Mister Yates put his arms around Missus Yates.Missus Yates's eyes turned red, "We were supposed to go shopping and cook a delicious meal for our daughter to appease her. Now we have come back empty-handed, ah...""It's okay." Mister Yates comforted his wife. At that moment, a chirpy voice suddenly spoke, "Dad! Mom! Aren't you afraid of being seen? You're an old couple, but you're still so lovey-dovey. I'm jealous! Hmph!"The couple turned around and saw Yvonne carrying groceries and breakfast in her hands."Where have you… where have you been, girl?" There was an obvious panic in Missus Yates' eyes.If Yvonne also went to the farmer's market, did she witness the scene at the farmer's market?Yvonne immediately sai
The policeman repeated himself, "The pickpocket, he claims he knows Mister Yates. He wants Mister Yates to come and bail him out."Yvonne was stunned. She looked at her parents in a daze, holding the receiver in her hand, and then asked her parents, "What's going on?"Yvonne's parents bowed their heads.Yvonne had to say into the receiver, "I see. We'll come as soon as possible."When she hung up, she became slightly agitated, "What's going on? How did this happen when you went out for morning exercises? Marcus bought that necklace as a gift for you. The necklace was stolen, but you were indifferent and didn't let me call the police.Now the police have found him on their own initiative. Is the pickpocket who stole the necklace at the police station now?Dad!Mom!What the hell is going on?Can you tell me?! At this time, please don't make any trouble!"Yvonne, who seldom got angry with her parents since she was a child, finally could not help it at this moment.She ha
"So what if I did?" The man smiled shamelessly. "I just robbed her, but I also wanted to strangle her! I just don't have enough strength!" The man said maliciously.Mister Yates shook his head contemptuously, "You stole it, but you were caught. The necklace still has to be returned to us. Not only that, but you have to go to jail!"The man looked at Mister Yates defiantly, "So, I asked the police station to call you and ask you to bail me out. And you're here, aren't you? "Dad got up and stood up immediately, "Do you think I will bail you out? This is a crime! Being a street robber is a real crime! So many people are watching! Don't you know how harmful you are? You're not just a robber, you're a junkie! You want me to bail you out? I have no right to bail you out! Even if I do, why should I? You're delusional!" The man shrugged it off, but said in a threatening tone, "Anyway, I'm used to getting in and out, and I have no money now. Arrest me, and it'll just give me a chance to
"What did you say? What kind of shit did you just spew from your mouth?! Your mother's the whore. Your entire family are whores! You pickpocket! Robber!" Yvonne spat. Her parents were the most perfect.Since she was born, she has never seen her parents gotten angry or quarrel. They loved each other very much. How could her mother have been a mistress?"My mother is not a mistress, my mother has always been faithful. Your mother is a shameless and dirty mistress!""You're bluffing!" Yvonne suddenly stood up, and burst into tears. She would never allow anyone to insult her mother.But the man was very calm: "I am not. Ask your dad!"Yvonne turned to look at her father.She hoped to find the answer from her father's face.Mister Yates did not look at Yvonne, but he also looked at the man calmly: "Is your mother a mistress? In fact, you will know by looking at yourself. When your mother gave birth to you, your mother and I were still married.But you are not my child.Is your
"She is your mother! You should respect her! You should always remember that your mother is the best mother in the world and the one you really admire! " Yvonne's uncle looked at Yvonne sharply.Yvonne teared up, unhappy. She asked in confusion, "Is it all untrue?"At this time, her aunt came up, looked at Yvonne, and said earnestly, "Girl, whether or not your mother is a mistress is all in the past. Let's say she is not. Even if she is, your mother and your father have been legally married for more than 30 years now. Now, at this juncture, how can it be so coincidental that ancient history that's more than 30 years old have been brought up again?Obviously, it's premeditated.It's aimed at the Yates family. It's aimed at you, girl. If at this time, we fight among ourselves, we will really fall into the trap of others. You will be laughed at by others, those who plotted this will get away with it. Do you understand, girl?"Her aunt's words snapped Yvonne out of it.She stoppe
Eva, who was sitting in the hospital bed, gently comforted Oliver Shaw and his wife, "Uncle, aunty, don't be too angry. It's not worth being angry about such a person. We are all educated families. Naturally, you don't know how unscrupulous those ordinary families are when they want to climb up the ladder.It is also because my brother Marcus is too kind-hearted, so he is more tolerant of being exploited."The words were clearly meant to comfort Marcus parents. In fact, every word was laid against Yvonne and Yvonne's parents.At this moment, Oliver was very angry. Hearing Eva's encouragement, he became even more furious, "Marcus! Divorce this woman! Leave her at once! The Shaw family shouldn't have such a woman! As it turned out, she's unrefined! She's base!" Marcus' mother has a much better temperament, "I don't think Yvonne is such a person. She and Sabrina, and Ruth are good friends. Sabrina and Ruth are our relatives. How can they deceive Marcus?Besides, Yvonne has lived in ou
Yvonne's mother had already become the target of criticism. Some people even began to spat at her mother. They were in an era where mistresses were rampant and everyone hated them.Her mother burst out crying. "I'm not wrong. I'm not wrong. I didn't do anything wrong. Why are all of you doing this to me? I am not wrong. I am not wrong…"Her mother, who had always been strong and gentle, was incomparably weak at that moment. There was even a moment when Yvonne saw an expression of disgust for life on her mother's face. Yvonne suddenly felt terrified. Her mother had been such a strong woman. She was both gentle and strong. She would discuss every big and important matter in the family with Yvonne's father. Sometimes when her father could not make a decision, her mother would also provide the correct opinion.Just like the matter of Ruth not having a place to stay back then. Even Yvonne's father thought that Ruth had failed to do the right thing, had misbehaved, and done bad things. Th
