Chapter 6

Penulis: Bright Roost
Yvonne didn't respond. She went straight upstairs.

The next morning, someone yanked her awake.

She opened her eyes to find Cole gripping her arm, his face dark.

"Where's Yuri?"

Before she could even process the question, he shoved a video in front of her.

Renee was kneeling on the floor in the video, crying.

"Yvonne, I wasn't the one who told everyone at work. I never called you a homewrecker, and I never told anyone to film you and post it online.

"If you hate me, take it out on me. Please don't hurt Yuri.

"I posted the private video like you wanted. Please, just tell me where Yuri is."

Cole's eyes were full of anger.

"Yvonne Carter, what do you want?

"Your coworkers said a few things, and you made Renee post that video and hid Yuri because of it? How could you do that to a child?"

His grip on her arm hurt. Yvonne struggled against him, shaking her head.

"I didn't. I don't know what you're talking about."

The door opened, and Yale hurried in.

"Did you find him?"

Cole shook his head.

Yale turned to Yvonne, anger and disappointment written across his face.

"Yvonne, what happened to you? How could you be this cruel?

"He's just a child, and you're putting his life at risk."

Then Renee came in and dropped to her knees at Yvonne's feet, crying so hard she could barely speak.

"Yvonne, I posted the video just like you asked. Please tell me where Yuri is. He can't take something like this."

Cole pulled her into his arms.

"Don't be scared. I'm here. Yuri will be fine."

Then he looked back at Yvonne.

"Where is he?"

"I don't know," Yvonne said hoarsely.

"You still won't tell me?"

Cole finally lost patience and called for the bodyguards outside.

A moment later, one of them came in holding a phone.

On the screen, Teddy was trembling inside a cage while another bodyguard approached with a syringe.

Cole looked at her coldly.

"I'm asking you one last time. Where is Yuri?"

The moment Yvonne saw Teddy trembling in the cage, she broke down and rushed forward.

"No! Stop! I really don't know. Please!"

Cole didn't react.

Yvonne turned to Yale.

"Yale, believe me. I didn't do anything."

Yale frowned.

"You've really disappointed me."

Yvonne sank to the floor.

The two people closest to her, the two people she loved most, didn't believe her.

"I didn't do it. I really didn't."

Just as the needle was about to pierce Teddy's neck, the door opened, and an assistant rushed in.

"We found Yuri. He's unconscious and already at the hospital being treated."

  • He Wanted Our Baby’s Bone Marrow   Chapter 20

    At the wedding, Yvonne wore a gown she'd designed herself and slowly made her way toward Yosef.The moment he saw her, Yosef hurried toward her. He took her hand, his eyes reddening."Yvonne, I love you."They exchanged rings and made their vows amid the cheers and well wishes of everyone around them.Then they kissed.Not far away, Cole watched the scene and suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.He couldn't help thinking that if none of it had happened, he would be the one standing beside Yvonne now.They would have built a family together, had a beautiful child, raised the little animals she loved, and spent the rest of their lives happily together.But there were no what-ifs.He had once been only one step away from that happiness, and he'd destroyed it with his own hands.He still wore his ring. Around his neck hung the ring Yvonne had thrown away, and he closed his hand tightly around it.Watching her so happy, Cole could only comfort himself with the thought that, at least, he

    Two years later, Yvonne was ready to graduate.She had excelled throughout her time at school. Her Rebirth collection continued to dominate international fashion rankings, and she'd held several art exhibitions, with many of her works purchased by collectors.Chosen to speak as one of the outstanding graduates, Yvonne stood onstage and looked out at her friends, the people she'd worked alongside, and Yosef.Over the past two years, they had been there for her through every difficult and important moment.She raised the microphone with a smile."I want to thank the person I was three years ago for having the courage to make that choice. And I want to thank all my friends."After the graduation party, Yosef took Yvonne for a walk along the beach.The setting sun washed the ocean in orange and red as the evening breeze drifted around them. They walked side by side in comfortable silence."Thank you."After a long while, Yvonne suddenly spoke.Yosef smiled and looked down at her."You've s

    The car door opened, and Yosef stepped out.His brows drew together as he moved in front of Yvonne, blocking Cole's path."Mr. Foster, Yvonne told you to leave. Didn't you hear her?"Seeing Yosef standing protectively in front of Yvonne, Cole finally understood why he'd been unable to find any trace of her for so long.The easy familiarity between them brought months of pent-up pain rushing to the surface.His eyes reddened as he shouted, "She's my wife! What right do you have to interfere between us and tell me to let her go?"Yosef gave a quiet scoff and shook his head."Cole Foster, that marriage certificate was fake. You and Yvonne were never legally married. And after everything you did to hurt her, whatever you had was over a long time ago."She doesn't belong to anyone now. She's Yvonne Carter, and she has every right to choose the life she wants. That has nothing to do with you."Cole began to shake. He clenched his fist and swung at Yosef.Before he could reach him, Yosef's bo

    That day, Yvonne had just finished up at the studio and was heading home when she suddenly spotted a familiar figure standing outside the house.Cole had found her.He had lost a great deal of weight, and dark circles shadowed his eyes. His gaze locked onto her, and even his breathing quickened.Yvonne's heart sank slightly, and the smile on her face slowly faded.The moment Cole saw her, the emotions he'd been holding back for months finally broke free. He rushed over and pulled her into his arms as if she were something precious he'd finally gotten back, holding her so tightly it was almost as though he wanted to press her into his very bones. His voice choked as he said, "Yvonne, I finally found you. I've spent more than six months looking everywhere for you. I've regretted it every day, every night. I thought I'd never see you again."He couldn't bring himself to let go. Instead, he carefully touched her cheek."I'm sorry, Yvonne. This was all my fault. Renee set everything up, an

    After he got home, Cole spent the entire night organizing the evidence and released the full truth to the public.The moment the video went online, it caused an uproar.Condemnation of Renee flooded social media. Yvonne's former coworkers saw the clarification and were filled with guilt. One after another, they posted apologies, admitting they never should have believed Renee's side of the story without question.Meanwhile, Yale used every connection and resource he had to keep searching for Yvonne, but he still couldn't find a single lead.He went straight to Cole's house and found him sitting in the living room, looking completely drained.All the anger Yale had been holding back finally erupted. He strode over and punched Cole to the floor."If it weren't for you, my sister never would've disappeared!"Cole didn't get up. He simply sat there, defeated, as memories of Yvonne flooded his mind.Whenever she couldn't sleep, he would hold her every night until she drifted off.She loved

    When Cole pushed open the front door, Renee heard him come in and hurried over.Her eyes were slightly red, and she looked as if she'd been wronged."Cole, you haven't been here in two days. Yuri asks about you every day. He misses you so much."She slipped her arm through his and continued softly, "He's been recovering pretty well, but his doctor warned me that if we want to cure him completely and make sure there are no problems later, the best thing would still be for us to have another child."A full sibling would be a guaranteed match, and Yuri would have a little brother or sister to play with."Cole said nothing. He pulled her hand off his arm and looked at her, his expression cold.The look in his eyes made Renee uneasy, but she forced a faint smile."Why are you looking at me like that? What happened?""You cost Yvonne and me our baby."Cole spoke slowly, one word at a time."Renee Abbott, you really planned this whole thing out. From beginning to end, you even had me fooled."
