All Chapters of He Sent Me Away for Three Years. Now My Divorce Has Him Panicking.: Chapter 431 - Chapter 440

Rain pattered against the fallen leaves in the yard.Only after Yvonne and the others disappeared down the path did the small house finally fall quiet again.The boy’s mother gently took him by the wrist and led him back inside.Her heart ached as she rubbed his shoulders and comforted him again and again, speaking softly until some of the fear and uneasiness finally faded from his eyes.Only then did she step back outside.Her husband was still standing there, his face dark with anger and his chest rising and falling heavily.She let out a long, tired sigh.“You were too impulsive just now.“That woman looks like she has money. We can’t afford to make an enemy of someone like her.”The man turned away sharply.There was no regret on his face.His hands curled into fists as he remembered the way Yvonne had looked at their son.“I don’t care if I was impulsive. I don’t regret it.“Didn’t you see the way she looked at Caleb?“Like he was some kind of monster.”His voice ro

The next morning, the weather finally cleared.The first thing Yvonne did after getting up was tell the local community leader to arrange another visit to the family.Before speaking to him, she had already contacted Professor Smith and told him that the weather was clear enough for his team to come into the mountains.She was confident she could get the family to cooperate today.That way, by the time Professor Smith and the others arrived later, everything would already be settled and they could begin their work immediately.Yvonne could already picture the surprise on Professor Smith’s face when he arrived and found that she had taken care of everything on her own.She had spent a long time thinking about what happened the night before.Eventually, she decided she understood why the family had been so hostile toward them.It was about money.She had already spent quite a bit making arrangements before the trip, but she had no idea how much of that money, if any, had actuall

There was no argument.No protest.The woman had agreed so easily that it was almost unbelievable.A smug smile immediately spread across Yvonne’s face.So much for pride and principles.Put enough cash in front of people, and all of that disappeared soon enough.She held the money casually in one hand, already thinking several steps ahead.Once they brought Caleb out, she would finish the interview and collect the data as quickly as possible.Then she could hand everything over to Professor Smith.If she pulled this off, there would be no question who deserved the credit for making this field study possible.Professor Smith would finally see what she was capable of.And James...Yvonne was still lost in her thoughts when the door suddenly flew open again.For a second, she thought the family was already bringing Caleb out.Instead, a large, muddy farm dog came charging through the doorway.It ran straight at them.No one had expected it.The group immediately erupted

When Yvonne returned after getting her rabies shots, she discovered that Nina was there too.Her expression immediately darkened.Of course Nina had shown up.No matter what it was or where they were, she always had to come compete with her.Did she really think she belonged here?Annoyed, Yvonne immediately started making snide remarks about Nina to Professor Smith again.But Professor Smith had no interest in listening this time. His attention was entirely focused on the patient.Instead, he asked, “When can we begin the interviews and field research?”After everything that had happened over the past two days, Yvonne had learned her lesson.She no longer dared promise that it could happen immediately.“I’ll need to discuss that with the local community leader first.”Professor Smith frowned.“Didn’t you tell me this morning that everything had already been arranged? You said we could begin as soon as we got here.”She had said exactly that.But at the time, she hadn’t e

“What do you mean by that?” Yvonne immediately snapped at him.The community leader sighed.“I mean this is where things stand right now.”He was getting tired of the whole situation himself.Over the past few days, he had been dragged back and forth because of Yvonne’s group, and after meeting Nina and the others, he had become even less impressed with the way Yvonne handled things.At this point, he just wanted the matter settled so everyone could leave.So he decided to be direct with her.“This is as much as I can do. If you’re not satisfied, you can try talking to the family yourself.”“You think I won’t?”Yvonne sounded defiant, but the memory of her last two visits still made her uneasy.The wounds from the dog bite were still sore.Professor Smith was becoming impatient.They had been going back and forth for several minutes without seeing the patient.Yvonne had been speaking quickly, and the community leader had a strong local accent, so Professor Smith had only
