Yvonne had always known what she wanted, which was why she kept her distance from Edwin.She knew they were not the same kind of people, and the gap between them was far too wide.Besides, Edwin had never been her ideal type—something Yvonne had always been firm about.So, no matter how wealthy or powerful his family was, she had no intention of being with him.More importantly, he showed little respect toward her parents.Every time she thought about that, Yvonne felt a surge of anger. She felt she had never received the respect she deserved.Because of that, there was nothing more to say between her and Edwin.Saying anything more would only be a waste of her time.So once again, Yvonne went to the production company building and waited downstairs for the director to arrive at work.She refused to believe that after waiting this long, she still wouldn’t even get to see the director in person.…At the same time, Edwin confirmed Yvonne’s location.She was still at that director’s stud
Wouldn’t it be better for the two of them to stay out of each other’s lives and not interfere at all?On top of that, she had just been questioned at length by her parents and truly did not want to waste any more energy on Edwin.That was better for both of them.Yvonne stared at the ringing phone, hesitating. Her mind kept circling around the same question—should she answer it or not?Just as she was still hesitating, the call disconnected on its own.She immediately felt relieved.An automatic hang-up was perfect. It meant she didn’t have to think about whether to pick up or not.She really didn’t have the energy to deal with Edwin anymore.But in the very next second, his call came through again.Yvonne was already on her way to the production company. Seeing Edwin’s name pop up again made her head ache.She couldn’t understand why he kept pestering her over and over again.They no longer had any relationship. His persistence would only earn her displeasure.Nothing more than that.
This was something Philip had already noticed lately.The Song family had already come looking for him. If he, as a parent, said nothing at all, wouldn’t that make him seem utterly irresponsible?“Don’t do anything that brings shame to this family. If you have things to attend to, then go.”Philip waved his hand, clearly not wanting to see Edwin anymore.At his age, he was still being worn down by this son, something he truly could not understand—he had never worried this much even over his grandson.Lucas, on the other hand, always put his mind at ease.Thinking of that, Philip suddenly missed his grandson.Seeing that Philip had given his consent, Edwin left without wasting a second.After all, he was confident that his father ultimately stood on his side.No matter what, this was his own father—there was no way he would actually stop him from pursuing love.That was simply impossible.Because he understood this so well, Edwin usually acted without restraint.Yet as Philip watched hi
“Where are you going now?”Seeing that Edwin couldn’t sit still for even a moment, Philip lifted a hand to pinch the bridge of his nose. He truly didn’t understand how the son he raised could have so much energy.He seemed incapable of staying home.There was no one restricting him, so was it really that hard to stay in the house?Every day, he was either thinking about going out or already on his way out.Even though Philip had long known what kind of temperament his son had, he still found it hard to accept.Because Edwin’s biggest flaw was his arrogance.Every time Philip saw him like this, he felt utterly exhausted.Neither he nor his wife had personalities like this, so he truly couldn’t understand how they ended up with such an unruly son.“Dad, you already agreed. Now that I’m heading out, are you going to stop me?”Edwin shrugged and looked at Philip with mock grievance.His expression seemed to say: you just said you’d let me go pursue my love, and now you’re trying to interfe
“Besides, “Yvonne isn’t like the women you casually mess around with.”Edwin’s expression grew serious.“Of course I know she’s not like those women. She has status, identity, and pride. More than that, she and I grew up together. How could I not understand that?”Philip found it almost laughable.He snorted coldly, his expression full of disdain.“If you understand that so well, why do I need to repeat myself this many times?”“In my view, you little bastard simply haven’t realized how serious this situation is, which is why you keep provoking both the Song family and the Carter family again and again.”Philip took a deep breath. “Do you even know how long our two families have known each other?”Edwin nodded seriously.“Of course I know. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said I like Yvonne.”“But she doesn’t have feelings for you,”Philip felt his head throb violently.He had emphasized this so many times, yet that bastard hadn’t taken in a single word, completely lost in his own world.See
