Chapter 415
It was completely silent in the house for a moment.
Shannon spoke up after a long time. âYeah, thatâs right.â
Zoey.smirked and said mockingly, âSheâs my stepmotherâs daughter. But I havenât even seen her since I returned.â
Since they were both cunning women, there was no point for her to pretend to be innocent.
Since Shannon had agreed to let Zoey marry Jeremiah, it was a given that sheâd looked into Zoeyâs background.
Sheâd only approved of Zoey after learning of how capable Gemma was. Besides, she knew Yara wouldnât dare to do anything to her. After all, Shannon didnât want another daughterâinâlaw who was as useless as Yvette.
âYouâll have a lot of chances to see her in the future. Here. Make sure you eat more.â Shannon put on a fake smile, and it was clear that she didnât want to talk about Yvette.
Zoey had just been trying to see how Shannon would react when Yvette was mentioned. From what sheâd seen, she was confident that sheâd be able to control the Lane familyâs finances after she got married.
After they finished eating, Zoey went on a walk with Jeremiah. Shannon had asked her to stay with them, and she hadnât rejected the offer. She also wanted to know what Yvette was like.
âJerry, I think itâs unfair for Xav. A person like Yvette isnât worthy of him at all.â
Jeremiah stopped in his tracks, revealing no emotions at all. Instead, he just looked at her nonchalantly. You seem to know a lot about her.â
Not only did that fail to curb her arrogance, but she also continued to yap nonstop.
âIâve heard about her from my stepmother. Despite being the daughter of the Snyder family, she canât do well in anything and was born with a hearing impairment. She canât even manage a company or have a single talent. Sheâs really a failure.â
Jeremiah hadnât expected his fiancée to talk about Yvette like that.
Zoey thought Yvette couldnât manage a company and didnât have any talent. However, she had no idea that Yvette had composed the song sheâd tried so hard to getâand that too, without breaking a sweat.
As for managing a company, the business Yvette had started had made way more than the amount of Lawrenceâs money Zoey spent.
âZoey, donât talk behind other peopleâs backs in the future, especially when it comes to our seniors. I donât like it.â Although Jeremiah sounded gentle as usual, his tone was cold.
Zoey had wanted to say something else, but her face fell when she heard that. She wondered if Jeremiah was starting to dislike her. Besides, she didnât see Yvette as her senior.
Since Zoey had always been pampered, she didnât know when to back down at all. âI was just stating the truth. If you donât like listening to it, I wonât mention it ever again.â

After saying that, she stubbornly turned around and left. He didnât try to catch up with her at all.
Meanwhile, Jackie had been following them from behind. After seeing what had happened, she hurriedly approached him and handed him a coat. âWhatâs wrong with Ms. Yandell, Mr. Jeremiah? She seems to be angry.â
He accepted the coat and put it on. Then, he calmly said, âJackie, please get something for me. Iâll send you the address later.â
âSure.â She didnât ask anything else. After she received her instructions, she went to get what heâd asked for.
Once she left, Jeremiah took out his phone and looked at the text and drug a pharmacist had sent him. This is an effective drug, Mr. Lane. I hope you and your fiancée have a great night tonight.â
Meanwhile, Yvette had made all the arrangements for Viola and Noah. She also called Kiki and told Zachary that she was returning to Tirion for a while. After that, she returned to Lane Mansion with Xavier. When she thought about what Jeremiah had said the last time theyâd met, she felt a little restless. Xavier could sense it too, so he gripped her hand tightly. She took a look at him but didnât pull her hand back.
