Chapter 305
âDonât worry. I wonât let them bully me anymore.â
After they ended the call, Yvette called a foreign branch company. She asked them to send a bank statement and wanted to give it to Matthew as proof.
He was a lawyer himself. He wasnât as great as Leonard, but he still had once been the head of Snyder Groupâs legal department. So, he knew what to do.
By the time she was done with the call, she felt complicated and couldnât calm down for a long while. Five years ago, she had risked her life to cut ties with Yara. Now, the latter was back.
âYvvy.â The bedroom door hadnât been closed.
Yvette hadnât even realized when Viola had come to the door. The latter was looking at her with a caring
gaze.
Yvette turned around when she heard Viola. âWhy are you up, Viola?â
âIâve slept for too long. Now, I canât sleep anymore.â Viola smiled warmly.
Yvette immediately got up to support her. âIn that case, shall I accompany you on a walk?â
âSure.â
When Viola had been standing at the door earlier, she had heard part of Yvetteâs conversation on the
phone.
She had heard the person on the other end of the call saying that someone had returned. He had also told
Yvette to be careful.
Since Viola hadnât caught the full conversation, she didnât ask about it. She knew Yvette had grown up and wasnât the little girl who would cling to her all day anymore.
Yvette grabbed a coat and put it on Viola. Then, she let Xavier know they were going for a walk and headed out with Viola.
There wasnât a lot of people on the street. It had just stopped snowing, and about an inch of snow had piled up on the road.
âI remember how you loved the snow when you were younger, Yvvy,â Viola mumbled.
Yvette grabbed her arm and said, âYeah. Thatâs because a new year is around the corner when it starts to snow. I would get to buy new clothes for the New Year, and there would be a feast to celebrate the festival too.â
Viola had never told Yvette that she hated the New Year the most. It was because Yvette had gone back to the Snyder family one New Year and never returned after that.
Viola looked into the distance and let out a long sigh. âYvvy, I wish to see someone taking care of you before Iâm gone.â
Yvette stopped in her tracks, and hurriedly hugged Viola tightly. Her eyes started to tear up. âDrop the nonsense. Youâre not going anywhereâ¦â
She didnât even believe herself when she said that. All she could think of was what Claude had saidâthe
1/2
doctor told them that Viola might not make it past the New Year.

Viola gently patted Yvetteâs hand and didnât expose her lie. âI know. I want to watch Zac and Noah grow up too. However, before that happens, I also want to see you find someone who truly loves you, my dear
Yvvy.â
Viola turned back to look in the houseâs direction. âXavier isnât meant to be your partner. Heâs only nice to you because he has lost his memories and become blind. If he recovers his memory and sight, heâs going to revert back to his old self again.â
âI know.â Yvette nodded. âIâm not going soft on him.â
âYeah.â Viola tightened her grip on Yvetteâs hand. âClaudeâs a great guy, and I can tell he likes you. If itâs possible-â
Yvette shook her head and interrupted Viola. âViola, I donât want to be with anyone else right now. Claudeâs a great guy, but I know I donât love him. Iâm not going to marry someone I donât love. Thatâll be unfair to him.â
Viola was speechless, and she didnât know how to persuade Yvette anymore.
The latter was great in many ways. However, she was too stubborn. Once she had decided on something, she wouldnât change her mind. She wouldnât even try being selfish for once.
After they walked for a moment, Viola started feeling tired, and Yvette helped her return to the house. They didnât realize a woman was standing in a corner far away. She was dressed extravagantly. Behind her was a young male assistant, Spencer Allen.
Spencer asked politely, âShall I ask Ms. Snyder to come out, Madam Yara?â
Yara slowly shook her head. âThereâs no need for that.
She decided there was no reason to talk to Yvette, who was hearingâimpaired, and treated Viola as her mother instead. Yara thought she was useless.
