Ch. 2391..2400
Chapter 2391 Just like that, time was wasted one year after another. Eva did not marry into a good family when she was already more than 30 years old. Not only that, but Eva even was so spoiled that she had a bad habit of being arrogant. From the bottom of her heart, she already thought that she was an elite from a noble and eminent family. She even thought that she always had four brothers and she was the only girl in the family, she considered herself to be a young lady of the Shaw family. This kind of mindset had been deeply planted in her mind.
After that, when she was looking at men out there, she felt that no one was worthy of being with her. However, she no longer tried to have any ideas about the men in the Shaw family anymore because she knew that they would never marry her. Never had she ever expected that at that moment, Keegan would be telling her that the person he wanted to introduce to her to be her boyfriend was actually the youngest master of the Shaw family, Marcus. 1 Of course, Eva wanted to marry him. she wanted it very much.
Even if the youngest mast of the Shaw family, Marcus, was not as powerful as Sebastian, the Shaw family was great. The three Shaw brothers, Keegan, Caelus, and Lokni, had never fooled around with women out there. Their fourth brother, Marcus, certainly would not as well. If she was able to marry into the Shaw family, her parents would be even more highly regarded in front of the many maids of the Shaw family. Besides, Marcus was also the same age as her. He was the most suitable. However, Eva also felt something was strange. 1 She covered her cheek, "why did you guys think of letting me marry Marcus? Don't you dislike me for being the Shaw family's maid?"
At that moment, Keegan softened his tone to coax Eva, "We didn't marry you back then because firstly, we truly treated you as our sister, and secondly, I am more than ten years older than you, how can I marry you? If I had married you, then wouldn't I have wronged you? However, Marcus was different. You and Marcus had been separated since you were about five years old.
Both of you never lived together after that so there's no sibling bond between the two of you. Also, you're a college graduate who returned from abroad and you knew the Shaw family so well. We will be most at ease for you to be married to my fourth brother."
Eva immediately stopped crying and smiled. "R-Really?"
"Of course! Otherwise, why did we ask you to travel all the way back here? It's just there's a difficult problem in front of US now,"
Caelus immediately said.
"What difficult problem?" Eva immediately asked.
Just as she asked that, Marcus had already driven the car over. He poked his head out of the car. "Are you guys getting in the car? You can talk after we've gone home!"
"Marcus, you can drive yourself. We will all take one car and we'll discipline Eva on the way home, she is too insensible," Keegan immediately said to Marcus.
"That would be best!" without waiting for his brothers to reply, Marcus drove off.
He felt really annoyed! He desperately wanted to let his brothers and Eva return abroad as soon as possible and let his life return to being peaceful! since they had stayed abroad since childhood, then it was fine for them to not return again!
Marcus thought of that angrily while he was on his way home.
Once he arrived home, he parked his car, entered the house, and he saw both his parents were on a call at the same time. Also, the voice on the other end was very loud. It seemed like someone was crying and yelling.
"Dad, Mom, what happened?" Marcus asked.
His father raised his head and looked at Marcus. His tone was stern as he said, "Marcus, hurry up and tell me, did Yvonne really do such a thing?"
Marcus was stunned. "What did Yvonne do?"
Chapter 2392 After he asked that question, Marcus already knew what was going on. His parents should be talking about the matter of Yvonne condemning Eva at the Ford Group. Perhaps once Eva was released, she told her parents, and her parents made a call to Marcus' parents. After all, she was a pampered girl. She could not stand suffering a tiny bit of disadvantage at all. After she had a little disadvantage, she had to tell her parents.
Without waiting for his parents to reply, Marcus took over the phone that was in his father's hand and listened to what the person on the other end said. On the other end of the call, the woman was complaining in tears, "sir and madam, our family, the Yerbury family, had been utmost loyal to the Shaw family. Our family of three followed the three youngest masters and had been taking care of them since their childhood. We have taken meticulous care of them. We truly have done our duty with our very best. We only have one child, Eva. She had just returned to the country, and once she returned to the country...Sir and madam, you have to seek justice for our Eva. To think that back then, for the sake of the old madam, Eva's grandfather truly had given up his life..."
She sobbed.
"I know, Mister and Missus Yerbury," Marcus said at that moment.
On the other end of the call, Eva's mother stopped crying. Instead, she asked cautiously in fear, "Ah, is that Master Marcus?
Master Marcus, is that you?"
Marcus was still very polite, but he had anger raging within. "I am Marcus, Missus Yerbury."
"Master Marcus, Eva is just a little eager. Do you know why Eva would be eager? She didn't want you guys to worry for her anymore, she had simply secretly gone on a blind date. Little girls would have moments when they're mischievous. Has she done anything heinous that warrants her to be sent to the police station? She is a child from a family of maids after all. Nobody cared and loved her. If a girl from the top most noble family in the world had secretly gone over to Mister Ford's office to check it out and mistaken him for someone else, it may turn out to be a good story. Everyone would think that this girl is very cute. Cute and also naughty, and was particularly bold. Look at that! This girl was able to do what others can't. After all, she is different from the ordinary family, what happens when it's Eva in this story instead? We are from a family of maids. Could it be that children whose families were maids can't make a single mistake in life? Once she has done something slightly out of line, she has to be directly sent to the police station?"
Towards the end, Eva's mother cried with immense grievance and her voice was getting louder and louder.
Marcus was speechless. At that moment, he had nothing to say. After all, he was the one at a disadvantage. Even if Eva was wrong, since her mother had already said it like that, what else could Marcus say? It seemed like what Eva's mother had said made sense as well. One day, if Sebastian's child, Aino, was to barge into someplace, as long as someone knew Aino's identity, nobody would blame the cunning little queen. Marcus would be the first who would not blame her. Could it be due to the differences in status? Perhaps.
Marcus felt guilt. Even if the person who had sent Eva to the police station was not him but Sebastian, he still apologized very sincerely, "I'm sorry, Mister and Missus Yerbury. We didn't take good care of Eva. Now that Eva is in the hands of the Shaw family, you don't have to be worried anymore. We will not mistreat Eva." "There's that Yvonne Yates as well!" Eva's mother suddenly said in anger.
"Missus Yerbury..."
Before he replied, Eva's mother got more and more furious on the other end of the call. "Who the hell is she? How old is she?
She is not even the same age as Eva! Even if she is the Shaw family's young lady of the house, how can she show off her authority like that? How many days has it been since she got into the Shaw family? The Yerbury family had already been with the Shaw family for almost a hundred years! We have been serving and taking care of the Shaw family for generations! We have an inseparable relationship with the Shaw family!"
Chapter 2393 "She is just a girl who had just married into the Shaw family. Does she want to abuse US, the maids who had made great contributions, to death? she is not marrying into the Shaw family! she clearly wants to ruin the Shaw family! She wants to ruin the good reputation of the Shaw family that has been maintained for a hundred years!"
Seeing that Eva's mother was in a fit of anger, Marcus did not argue with her. He just went along with whatever she said.
However, Eva's mother was still relentless. "Now that my daughter has moved into the Shaw Residence, what would happen to Yvonne? If Yvonne is in the Shaw Residence, then my daughter won't stay there. As maids, even if we were to be poor as hell and no matter how lowly our status is, we still have dignity! Has Eva arrived home yet? If she has, get her on the phone. I will ask her to move out! I will ask her to move out now. I will let her come back to us after a few days. From then on, we will no longer have any relations with the Shaw family anymore!"
"Missus Yerbury- " Marcus said.
At some point, Yvonne came to the back of Marcus. She then snatched the phone away from his hand, and said, "It's fine, Missus Yerbury. It's alright to let Eva stay here for a few days. I won't be staying at the Shaw Residence these few days."
"Yvonne, what are you talking about! This is your home!" Marcus said.
However, he heard Eva's mother say on the other end of the call, " Fine! You're the one who said it. My daughter doesn't wish to see you, but we also didn't intend to shamelessly stay in the Shaw Residence! My daughter will book a flight and return as soon as possible. It'll just take a couple of days! I hope the lady of the house can put up with it for a couple of days! You have your birth family to return to in South city, but Eva only has the Shaw family in South City, so please bear with it!"
"I know. I will return to my family now. My husband and in-laws will certainly take good care of Eva," Yvonne calmly said.
After saying that, Yvonne automatically hung up the call.
Immediately after that, Marcus and his parents were all looking at Yvonne. Marcus' mother, in particular, said, "Yvonne, my good girl. We didn't have this intention. We can find the best hotel for Eva. She is only staying for a couple of days anyway."
Yvonne smiled, looking at her mother-in-law. "Missus and Mister Shaw, I know that you are very nice to me. Marcus also dotes on me very much. I know all that. However, the Shaw family is going through a lot during this period of time. Grandpa has just left this world. There were incidents with Marcus' three brothers a few days ago as well. At this moment, the Shaw family can't have any other troubles anymore. Particularly regarding Eva. Three generations of her family were indeed maids of our family. Eva's grandfather had once saved Marcus' grandma's life. We can't forget this kindness, especially after Grandpa had just died, otherwise, the entire South City would despise US. It's just a couple of days and a week at best. It's not a problem for me to go back and stay at my parents' house, Mister and Missus Shaw. We're a family. We can discuss everything. We have to be united now."
Yvonne usually seemed like a little firecracker and a sweet girl, who never worried about anything, who only knew to be doted on by others, and was very ignorant. However, nobody expected that at that moment, she would actually act so sensibly.
Marcus immediately hugged Yvonne. "My wifey, I just knew that I didn't marry the wrong person. I didn't marry the wrong person."
Yvonne's in-laws also hugged her and treated her like their own daughter. "Good girl, good girl. We thank you. what a good girl."
With tears welled up in her eyes, Yvonne waved goodbye to her in laws and Marcus. "Mister and Missus Shaw, dear, I will first go back to my parents' house to stay for a few days. I will return after Eva has left."
The three of them nodded with teary eyes.
Yvonne grabbed the bag she had been carrying around with her and left the entrance of the Shaw Residence.
At this end, a few people immediately cheered in the car that was parked not far away from the entrance of the Shaw Residence.
"It worked! The first step of our plan has succeeded. Can I seduce Marcus without a car in the world now then?"
Chapter 2394 Seeing how slutty Eva looked, the three brothers were quite angry. Some people were just born slutty! Even if she has been sent abroad to become a better version of herself, has grown up abroad since childhood, and was a polyglot such as Eva at that moment, she was still a slut in her bones, she could actually speak of seducing the moment she opened her mouth. The three brothers sneered at the same time.
Keegan even shot a disgusted glance at Eva. "If you were to strip naked and climb onto my brother's bed today, within a minute, you would be kicked out by him!"
Eva instantly felt a sense of injustice. "Am I that ugly? I am a person who returned from abroad."
"A person who returned from abroad? Do you mean a prostitute who returned from abroad?" Keegan asked rudely.
"Keegan, how can you say that I am a prostitute?" she sobbed.
"You had just known him for a day and you haven't even stepped into the house yet, but you eagerly speak of seducing and stripping naked to climb onto my brother's bed. You're not even shy at all. If you're not a prostitute, then what are you? Say it yourself! Slutty bitch!"
Keegan did not let Eva save face at all. Eva also felt that she might truly be a little too eager and behaved too vulgarly. "I just think that all three of you are no outsiders, so I told the truth. The thing that I am doing is indeed the truth. I indeed want to seduce Marcus. I know I am a little eager. Tell me then, what should I do?
The three brothers rolled their eyes at Eva and looked at her angrily. They truly wanted to kick this maid out! However, they did not have any other suitable candidates. Who else in the world could be instructed by them and would obey all of their orders?
There was only this maid who wholeheartedly wanted to climb up the social ladder! One after another, the three of them told Eva what to do. Eva laughed at one moment and blushed at another moment.
It was half an hour later that she entered the door to the Shaw Residence while being accompanied by her three brothers. At that moment, Marcus and his parents were sitting inside the main hall of the Shaw Residence.
Marcus looked at his three brothers angrily. "Was there traffic on your way back? You guys are so late! You clearly were right behind me, but you're only back so late. You have made an overseas call, haven't you? Mister and Missus Yerbury, who were abroad, had already found out about it in an instant!"
Initially, Marcus still felt sorry for his three brothers, but at that moment, Marcus desperately wished that his brothers were dead.
For a moment, Marcus even suddenly understood why Sebastian was so vicious and heartless back then to be able to lay his hand on his own brothers! At that moment, he was able to feel more and more of that kind of anger and torment, when a person had been pushed too far, the person truly could do anything!
How much hardship Sebastian and Grace had gone through living abroad back then. When Sebastian was still a child, all Grace wanted was to give Sebastian an unbroken family, she wanted to let Sebastian have a father, she never wanted to get anything from the Ford family at all. However, Rose repeatedly forced her into a corner to the point that Grace almost lost her life. In the end, she was directly sent to prison. Thinking about that at that moment, under those circumstances, it would have been strange if Sebastian was not driven mad. In order to live and to not let his mother suffer any more humiliation, what was there that he could not do? He had been pushed too far!
Marcus had that kind of feeling at that moment. He had never seen his brothers make any contributions to the family since childhood! He had never seen his brothers take care of their grandfather and parents. However, they created all sorts of trouble as soon as they returned.
Chapter 2395 Their grandfather's body was almost left in the open and unable to be laid to rest because of the trouble the three of them had stirred up. Finally, their grandfather had been buried. They then created another trouble and abducted Aino. Finally, Aino has returned. They still wanted to repeat their offense. At that moment, everything had finally returned to a peaceful state after their aunt had pleaded for them. It would have been fine after that, and the Shaw family was still unbroken. How great was that?
However, Eva has returned. Even a person as foolish as a pig was able to figure out that Eva's return this time certainly has something to do with the three brothers, otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that Eva would return at this juncture?
Also, she even went straight to Sebastian's office as soon as she returned. If this was not Marcus' three brothers changing a method to seek revenge on Sabrina and Sebastian, then what else could it be?
At that moment, Marcus only thought that his brothers had asked Eva to return as a means to revenge on Sebastian and Sabrina. He simply did not expect that his brothers had brought Eva over to fight against him and Yvonne. They were his family!
How could Marcus have guessed that?
To keep his brothers and Eva from going to create trouble with Sebastian, and also to ensure that his brothers were able to live safely and not cause any trouble, Marcus painfully agreed for Yvonne to first go back to her parents' house to stay. He simply wanted to personally send his brothers and Eva back abroad. Only then would he be able to be at ease.
He looked at his three brothers with an extremely long face. His three brothers smiled at their parents and brother with great sincerity. Keegan, of course, was the leader of the group of four, so he had to be the first to speak for anything. "Marcus, I know that you would think that we are the ones who had asked Eva to come back, but it's really not US. Think about it. How foolish would we be? We had just escaped death by the skin of our teeth at Sebastian's end. If we were to create any other trouble, do we still want to live or not?"
Marus was speechless. It indeed made sense after he thought about it.
"Then what's going on with Eva's return? Why did she go to Sebastian's office as soon as she returned?" Marcus asked with a darkened expression.
"I'm sorry, Marcus. It's my fault. I admit that this is all my fault. When I was on the plane back, what I had heard the most was people discussing what South city's Sebastian Ford was like, when I got off the plane and took the cab, the driver also told me a lot about the legendary life that Sebastian had. I was a little unconvinced at that moment. I was thinking that when I had left South City back then, Sebastian was still a beggar who could not even enter the door of the Ford Residence. How could he become so powerful now? I still remember when I was five, I went to the Ford Residence with Grandpa Shaw as guests. At that time, Sebastian and his mother were like beggars outside of the Shaw Residence. I was the one who had given him some snacks. Till today, I can still remember that I had so kindly put the snacks by her feet, but he held his head high arrogantly and he didn't even glance at me. I was simply curious how such a person inherited the Ford Group's business. I also wanted to ask him if he still remembered the kindness of me giving him snacks back then. You have to know that a small kindness should be repaid generously! I was just curious, so I went to his office to take a look. I had never expected that he...Sebastian would act just like a robber and ask the security to forcefully push me out of there. After that, he felt so embarrassed that he got angry, and he even had the police arrest me. In fact, in the end, it was after I had gotten into the prison that I figured out why Sebastian would be so embarrassed that he got angry."
Marcus was so angry that he was almost out of his mind after hearing what Eva had said, she was even able to find out the reason why Sebastian was angry in the end?
Marcus did not get angry but he laughed and asked instead, " Alright, alright! Tell me then, why was Sebastian so embarrassed that he got angry?"
Eva looked at everyone present. "It's because he was eager to have an affair with that woman named Yvonne!"
Chapter 2396 Marcus shouted, "what nonsense are you talking about?"
He truly wanted to slap this damned woman to death! she was too damned despicable! Sure enough, even a gentle and well- mannered man like Marcus had the urge to curse at that moment! However, he still held back the urge to curse. Instead, he grabbed Eva by her collar and said word by word, "Eva Yerbury! Did you know that ever since you were at the tender age of five, you had started to be condescending and you worship those you see as superior while trampling over those you consider inferior to you!
"My grandpa did not take you with him when you visited the Ford family together with him at the age of five! Instead, it was because my grandpa was afraid that Mindy would be lonely, so he asked you, a young maid, to keep her accompanied! Also, do you still think that you giving Sebastian the snacks was showing him kindness? Do you know that you can't hurt the other party's dignity when you are truly helping the person? If you truly wanted to help him, why didn't you hand the snacks to him and give him true warmth? You! You were giving him a handout! You were giving him a handout in a condescending manner!"
Eva did not dare to talk back to Marcus. She knew that Marcus was her next target, so of course, she could not talk back to him.
she cried and said softly, "Back then, I... I was being kind back then. It's just that the way I have done things was not right!"
"But you didn't even know that he didn't need your snacks at all! Sebastian Ford was Sean Ford's son. He was the son of the princess of Star Island. Would he be short on basic necessities? You idiot!"
Finally, Marcus was unable to hold himself back anymore and he scolded Eva.
Eva asked, "Then what was he doing standing at the door of the Ford Residence?"
"He was standing at the door of the Ford Residence because Sean and Old Master Ford had let him in. It was because the Ford family was holding a banquet for the rich and powerful in South City that day. All the young masters of the Ford family were in the yard. Sebastian originally should be there as well. He was the one who had come out. He was the one who was unwilling to stay inside that yard! That was because his mother was not acknowledged by the Ford family! Do you understand that? Idiot!
"He was not begging for food at the door of the Ford Residence! He did not even care about entering the Ford Residence at all.
He had run out of there and his mother was at the door, forcing and pushing him to go back in. He was unwilling, so he stood at the door being pissed off with his mother! He was not standing at the door begging for food! Do you understand that?"
Marcus was truly pissed beyond measure because of her. He truly had no idea what the was the purpose of this stupid woman to return! Most of the people in the world were mediocre. There was nothing wrong with mediocrity. However, she clearly was so mediocre to the point of being stupid, but did she still think that she was smart, beautiful, and loved by everyone? what kind of bullshit thinking was that?
What Marcus said made Yvonne incomparably embarrassed, she wanted to cry, but she did not dare to cry. She rolled her eyes over and over again, and in the end, she finally thought of the words that the three Shaw brothers had told her in the car. She immediately burst out crying, and her voice was shaking as she said, "Well, I know I was wrong. I had it all wrong. However, there is one thing that I am right about. Yvonne had clearly gone to seduce Sebastian. She and Sebastian were very intimate.
She even personally delivered ravioli to him. On the way here, Keegan, Caelus, and Lokni had told me that Sebastian had already been married and had children. Then isn't Yvonne knowingly committing the mistake? If she were some other woman, I couldn't say so much or anything about her. However, I heard... that Yvonne is... She truly is the young lady of the house for the Shaw family. In that case, I can't hide this matter from all of you. I have to report this to you, young master."
Marcus was speechless.
"I-I have done reporting. I know that I have done something wrong. I know...that I have committed an unforgivable sin. I will now kneel to sir and madam to atone for my sin."
While saying that, Eva was about to kneel. The way she looked while pretending to be meekly enduring the adversity she faced truly made Marcus feel disgusted. Also, what era were they living in at that moment? why was she still employing the tactic of kneeling to atone for her sins?
Chapter 2397 Were they still in ancient times? Besides, she was a woman who returned from abroad. Was she not supposed to be independent and free? However, she knelt instead. The more Marcus looked at Eva, the more disgusted he felt. However, no matter how disgusted he felt, he also had to pull through for the next few days. He would be at peace again when his brothers and Eva returned abroad. Just endure it for the moment then.
Before Eva went down on her knees, Marcus immediately bent over to hold Eva.
"Gosh, what... What's the matter with me?" Suddenly, Eva felt dizzy and she gradually landed in Marcus' arms.
Marcus hugged Eva and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Eva! Eva! What's the matter with you?"
Eva fainted.
"What's going on? What's the matter with Eva?" Marcus anxiously turned his head back to look at his three brothers.
Keegan sighed and said, "What else can it be? she had been on the plane for more than ten hours. Once she got off the plane, she rushed to visit the pitiful person that she thought she had once saved. In the end, she was sent to prison by that person and was locked up there. She had spent almost half a day there while being frightened and exhausted. Finally, she was bailed out, but in the end, once she got home, she went through all sorts of interrogations by US. You have to know that she grew up abroad. She is unfamiliar with everything here. Try to think what would happen if you were the one who had gone to an unfamiliar place and was locked up in prison while being exhausted from flying for more than ten hours!"
Marcus truly was at a loss for words at Keegan's remark. He suddenly shouted angrily, "Hurry up and call the ambulance!"
Upon saying that, he shouted again, "Forget it. We'll drive there ourselves!"
As soon as he said that, he did not have time to think over the matter deeply. He simply carried Eva in his arms and ran quickly toward the car. Marcus steadily placed her in the car and drove straight to the hospital in a hurry. His brothers also drove and followed behind him.
Marcus' three brothers sneered together in the car, and they said in almost unison, "Yvonne Yates! We absolutely will never let you, a scum, into our family and be a Missus Shaw! The young lady of the house? Don't you even think about it!"
After saying that, Caelus tailed Marcus' car as they went to the hospital.
Outside of the emergency ward, the four brothers were waiting with immense anxiety.
"Gosh, if Eva's parents were to find out about this, they certainly would think we didn't take good care of Eva."
"The Yerbury family had been loyal to our family for generations, we can't treat Eva like that..."
"Stop it. Marcus didn't mean to either..."
The three brothers complemented each other's words.
Marcus did not hear them. That was because he was just looking at the door to the emergency room with great concern.
More than two hours later, the door was still shut.
What was going on? Would Eva be in any danger? If that truly was the case, then Marcus would have an inescapable responsibility. She had just got off the plane and had just returned, why was he so harsh to her? He even called her an idiot! oh!
He was too impulsive, after all.
Suddenly, the door of the emergency room opened.
Marcus immediately grabbed the doctor's arm. "Doctor, Doctor, may I know how my sister is doing?"
"Are you Eva's family?" asked the doctor.
"Yes, I am. I am his younger brother. Those are her elder brothers. The four of us are her closest family. If there is anything, please don't worry and just tell US."
The doctor sighed and said, "It's actually nothing serious, she may not have lived in South City before, so she can't get used to the humid air in South city. On top of that, she is anemic. Under the circumstance when there's not enough blood supply, it's very easy for a person to faint. The patient is not used to the new environment. As her family, you have to take good care of her."
"...I got it," said Marcus.
At that moment, his phone rang. He took out his phone and saw that it was Yvonne calling. He then said with a rather exhaustive tone, "Yvonne, we're busy at the moment. Don't call me if there's nothing."
On the other end of the call, Yvonne's heart sank, and then she said in a considerate manner, "I got it..."
Chapter 2397
Chapter 2398 Right at that moment, Yvonne was sipping on a glass of red in a cafe. The people who were accompanying her were Sabrina and Ruth.
"Sabrina, Ruth, I have actually never had this kind of trouble like yours all this while. I have always been very sympathetic to Sabrina's circumstances. Ruth's family matters as well. It's true. I have always felt that when it was my turn, the Shaw family was already very open-minded.
"Grandpa Shaw had been extra tolerant to me because of Sabrina and Aunt Gloria, so much so that he can be said to have spoiled me. My in-laws have always been loving me as well. In fact, I have never suffered any grievances being in the Shaw family. I have been living very freely. I feel that I am truly fortunate and happy. However, I have never ever thought that this kind of fortune and happiness will be broken so quickly. I now truly understand what it means that marrying rich is like entering an unknown world as deep as the oceans. It truly is as deep as the oceans. Also, the troubles are endless."
Speaking of that, Yvonne had a sorrowful expression on her face. It was after Sabrina had carefully observed Yvonne that she noticed that this girl had tears welled up in her eyes. She was just stubbornly holding back her tears.
Sabrina felt sorry as she patted Yvonne on her shoulder. "Girl, don't be sad. This conflict of yours is nothing at all. You had no idea how Ruth and I had pulled through, since the day I had a connection with Sebastian, the Ford family had plotted against me.
The Lynn family had plotted against me. Old Master Shaw and also Sebastian's stepmother, Rose, had also plotted against me.
Almost all the people that could plot against me had plotted against me. I still survived, didn't I? Listen to me. You just have to be certain that you and Marcus love each other. Marcus loves you and that's all that matters. Believe me and believe in yourself as well. Marcus is a man of honor, baby."
"Yes, yes, Yvonne," Ruth also followed along and consoled her.
In fact, Ruth was not a woman who knew how to console others. She had always spoken very roughly and had never been able to express what she meant through words. However, the concern she had for Yvonne was not the least bit lesser than Sabrina.
Ruth also said very earnestly, "Yes, Yvonne. At the very least, my uncle and aunt love you and treat you like their own daughter, old Master Shaw even treated you like his own granddaughter just like Sabrina. The main thing is my cousin, Marcus. He is really a one in a million kind of good man. He has power and capabilities and is running many companies. In fact, the majority of the Shaw family's income is provided by him, and such a huge family is being supported by him alone. Marcus had always been composed and reliable in the field of business.
"Not only that, but he had always treated people very nicely. He truly is a flawless person. The main thing is that this flawless man truly loves you very much. Yvonne, it's already enough to have these. As for the matters that follow, you and Marcus have to deal with them alongside each other. Sabrina and I, as well as Mister Ford, won't be sitting idle as well. Therefore, all these troubles are just temporary."
Yvonne looked at her two besties gratefully. Yvonne has been blessed to have become such good friends with these two women in her life. Thinking of that, Yvonne's tears suddenly streamed down her face. Immediately after that, she burst out crying. She completely broke down. "I... Am I very useless? I am truly feeling very suffocated and frightened now. How would I know that Eva's grandfather is the Shaw family's life savior? Why does the Shaw family have so many family and friends? They are not even the proper relatives of the Shaw family as well. The Shaw family indeed has proper relatives. Aunt Gloria is the only daughter of the Shaw family, but she had spent her whole life wandering around. There's you as well, Ruth. You are my mother- in-law's niece, right? Have you ever had a day where you were treated well in the Shaw family? You've never even entered the door to the Shaw Residence.
However, what about those who are not even close to the family? All of them claimed to be the young lady from the family. Yes!"
Chapter 2399 "It's true! Eva's grandfather had once saved Marcus' grandmother, but Grandpa Shaw had already repaid the kindness within his generation. It has all been repaid! Grandpa Shaw had given them plenty of the Shaw family's precious jewelry and silk. He even paid for Eva to study at the best school abroad, what more do they want? They are simply insatiably greedy. The Shaw family has repaid them in one lifetime after another! In the end, they still owe them! I really can't stand it!"
Speaking of that, Yvonne was covered in tears. She was terribly aggrieved, and she had not been able to vent her feelings. At that moment, she finally let everything out like a broken dam.
"You guys have never seen Eva! When I didn't know her identity, I just thought that she was a call girl! That behavior, impulsivity, and shamelessness of hers! I had personally seen her seducing Mister Ford!"
Speaking of that, Yvonne glanced at Sabrina. "I'm sorry, Sabrina. I don’t mean to provoke you. I saw it with my own eyes that Eva stood outside of Mister Ford's office. Her boy-crazy look was just the same as a psychiatric patient. Also, she was extremely shameless! I saw that she was harassing Mister Ford, so of course, I had to stop her. I desperately wanted to step on her with all my might, let alone hit her! It was so infuriating!
"The man already has a wife and three children! Has she made any inquiries about that? How could she come to the outside of Mister Ford's office once she got off the plane and made all kinds of harassment! what in the world is that? This kind of woman, who appeared out of nowhere, came up to seduce my friend's husband. I already could not tolerate this kind of matter. In the end, she even told me that she was a young lady and a princess from the Shaw family! I was so infuriated that I lost my mind, you know! I just slapped her! However, who wouldn't be angry in that kind of situation? What happened next? Eva's parents then made a call from abroad to my in-laws to complain about me."
Hearing that, Ruth absolutely could not believe it. "She is just a maid. How can they be so ill-mannered?"
Yvonne helplessly sneered. "The legacy of the Shaw family that had been passed down for almost two hundred years was to treat their maids like their own family. That is because maids are human as well. It's just that their jobs are different. Old Master Shaw was absolutely right. He absolutely was very upright. However, that was exactly why the Shaw family has been exploited so many times by these people who are not even close to the family!"
"Well, sometimes I feel that Grandpa Shaw cared about saving face too much. He had been saving face all his life, which was great for the others, but miserable for his own family!" Ruth said helplessly.
Yvonne smiled miserably. "All these don't matter. I don't care about them at all. I was born a commoner. I also feel that everyone is equal, to begin with."
"Then what are you upset about?" Ruth relaxed and smiled. "Be happy, baby. Let's have a few drinks. I will call my cousin in a moment and ask him to pick you up. Let's discuss a good strategy to deal with that Yerbury woman! Son of a bitch! I just don't believe that a maid can be more shrewish than me! I will fight injustice for you!"
Yvonne knew that Ruth was speaking the truth. The more it was like that, the harder Yvonne cried. She put her head on Ruth's shoulder and cried with immense sorrow. "Ruth, when I heard Marcus on the phone just now, I sensed that he was annoyed with me. I feel, does Marcus not love me anymore?"
Both Yvonne and Sabrina were speechless.
Right at that moment, Yvonne's phone rang again, she thought it was Marcus calling, so she did not care about crying anymore, she picked up her phone and answered it right away. "Marcus, are you free now?"
"I am sorry, Miss Yates. I am not Marcus. I am Eva." Eva's tone on the other end of the call was clearly boasting.
Chapter 2400 Yvonne was stunned, she mumbled as if she was talking to herself, "Eva? Why would you be holding my husband's phone?"
"Bullshit!" Eva was not polite at all. "I am holding my brother's phone, alright? I'm sick. It's because someone has pissed me off so much that I am hospitalized. My brother is now handling the paperwork for my hospitalization at the hospital right now. He's very occupied running back and forth. He even has to stay here to take care of me tonight. He has no time to call and inform you, so he asked me to let you know."
"You..." Yvonne was so pissed that she immediately wanted to curse. However, her phone was snatched away by Ruth, who was next to her.
Yvonne was speechless. Sabrina then held Yvonne back.
At this end, Ruth politely smiled and said on the phone, "Alright. I got it, Eva. If there is anything that you need, just let my husband know. In any case, I also feel assured that he is there taking care of you. I am rather busy on this end, Eva. Once I am done with matters, I will go to the hospital to take care of you and accompany you with my husband. After all, we are a family.
The three of US can all squeeze in one room at night. As my husband's sister, you should be fine with that, right? After all, which sister would not hope that her brother's marriage is happy? Don't miss me, sister- in-law. I will be right over in a few days. Take a good rest."
Eva was stunned when she heard that on the other end of the call. She originally intended to piss Yvonne off. However, it was unexpected that not only did Eva not piss the other party off, but the other party made such aggressive remarks that Eva was unable to handle it.
"You... Pervert, you're so kinky!" Eva did not notice that the other party was no longer Yvonne. After all, she had not seen and spoken much to Yvonne.
"Haha! You are kinkier than me! You kept saying that Marcus is your brother. You can even make a pass at your own brother. You even made a call to your brother's wife at the hospital and that is a public place. If you're not kinky, what are you? It's not that I have not seen a boy-crazy woman. I have truly seen plenty. However, this is my first time seeing a boy-crazy woman like you who is so thirsty that you won't even let your own brother go. You certainly don't know that you are a strange one. However, the doctors will certainly know, otherwise, just ask the doctor if you are having some delusional fantasies?"
Ruth has been living with the Poole family like a daughter-in-law who has been bullied, she was born a shrew and was born loving to argue with others. However, when was with the Poole family, she did not have that imposing manner and she was reserved. Things were different at that moment. This was Yvonne's matter. At that moment, Ruth was calmer and more composed than Yvonne instead.
Perhaps the majority of the people in the world are like that. It would be easy for one to be impulsive and be caught in it when dealing with one's own matters. However, when it came to another person's matters, one could see it clearer. It would also be much easier when handling the matter. Ruth was just like that at that moment. At that moment, even Sabrina was impressed by Ruth's shrewish behavior and decisiveness when dealing with Eva, let alone the dumbfounded Yvonne.
Yvonne asked Ruth in surprise, "Ruth, little shrew, was she pissed to death? Hurry up and tell me. Was Eva pissed to death?"
Eva had not disconnected the call at the other end of the phone. She did not hear what Yvonne had said, but she heard every single word that Ruth had said very clearly. Not only did she hear it clearly, but she was even so pissed that her speech was incoherent and she was completely dazed.
It so happened that a doctor had come to deliver Eva's report at that moment. Eva then grabbed the doctor and asked without any context, "Am I having delusional fantasies? Tell me! Tell me, am I having delusional fantasies? You have to be honest!"
Gosh! Has this person gone crazy? Ha!
