Chapter 2 The Renaissance
902 Words
"Yvonne... I love you."
Yvonne was awakened by a kind of pressure.
She unconsciously frowned and then opened her eyes as if she had thought of something.
In front of her was a man's face.
He had almond-shaped eyes, fair skin, and a teardrop-shaped mole at the corner of his eye, which made him extremely charming and slightly feminine.
Looking at the face she hated so much, Yvonne couldn't wait to jump out of bed and kill this man!
He was Jordan Yale.
The instant Yvonne saw him, an endless hatred appeared in her eyes.
Jordan Yale frowned instinctively when he saw the murderous look in her eyes.
"Yvonne, what's wrong? Did I...?"
Before Jordan could finish his next word, Yvonne had already pushed him away.
And then he slapped her in the face!
Before Jordan could react, Yvonne grabbed the lamp from the bedside table and smashed it over his head with all her might.
"Oh my God, that hurts."
"Jordan Yale, you traitor, I'm going to kill you."
"Bang!"
The metal struck Jordan Yale's head, and his blood immediately gushed out!
"Yvonne, what are you doing? Stop!"
Yvonne beat Jordan like a madwoman. He was the one who had allied himself with Zoila Mooney and planned to push her off the deck and kill Zachary Leinster when they went to sea on an ocean liner. She wanted to kill Jordan and avenge Zachary Leinster.
She didn't know there was someone outside the door.
"Sarah, what are you trying to show me?" Frank Taylor asked from outside the door. And it was Yvonne's father.
No one dared underestimate the Taylor family's wealth in Hiltonan. Although Frank Taylor was around forty, he was well-built and had a mature temperament. The pretty woman in a simple cheongsam beside him was Sarah Mooney, Yvonne's stepmother.
"Someone said they saw Yvonne with a man at this hotel... I'm not sure, so I want to..."
"What did you say?" Frank Taylor erupted in a fit of rage.
Yvonne was the daughter of the Taylor family, but she never acted like a well-bred young lady.
She lacked both education and practical skills, and all she could do was go to bars and splurge.
She looked like she was spending the night with a man?!
Yvonne's father was so angry that the blue veins on his forehead were bulging. Seeing this, Sarah Mooney immediately cheered up and said, "Frank, she's still young and immature. Don't lose your temper..."
"She's 18 now. She's an adult!"
"Knock, knock, knock!" "Knock, knock, knock!"
In the hotel room, Yvonne was still arguing with Jordan. Then she heard an angry roar from outside the door.
"Yvonne Taylor, come out!"
Upon hearing this voice, Yvonne Taylor was completely stunned.
"This is the voice."
"Father?" she thought.
She hadn't realized there was someone outside the door.
Frank was so angry he was trembling all over.
Sarah secretly assessed him with a sinister smile.
She had planned all of this.
At noon, Sarah lured Yvonne, who was shopping nearby, to rest, and then asked Jordan, who had allied himself with her, to come over.
Finally, she asked Frank to see them in person, and he would definitely be disappointed in his eldest daughter.
When Yvonne heard the familiar voice, she was completely stunned.
"Dad, Dad?" she murmured to herself.
Then she opened the door.
Seeing his disheveled daughter, the middle-aged man in a suit raised his hand and was about to slap her.
It was at this moment that Yvonne threw herself into Frank Taylor's arms!
"Father!" she burst into tears.
Frank was stunned at first, as was Sarah.
Frank didn't know what to do, so he asked, "Yvonne, what's wrong?"
Yvonne said nothing. She hugged Frank and rested her head on his chest. "Dad, it's you... Dad... I miss you so much..." she murmured and thought it must be a dream, one in which her father was still alive. She hoped she would never wake up again.
Frank was stunned.
For so many years, ever since he and Yvonne's mother had divorced, Yvonne had never called him father, much less hugged him like this!
Every day, when he left work and went home, his daughter was out at the bars or playing, and she didn't come home until he fell asleep. In the morning, she went to school early. It was rare for father and daughter to see each other every month, and their relationship was like fire and water.
However, Yvonne was as obedient as a kitten today. She said, "Dad, I won't disappoint you again. Don't leave me alone, please..."
Frank was suddenly overcome with emotion.
"Yvonne, don't cry. It was just a week-long business trip to Arcus. Look, I'm back."
"Arcus?" Yvonne suddenly thought of something!
She realized she had misunderstood something.
When she was eighteen, her father went on a week-long business trip to Arcus. Sarah took advantage of the situation to trick her into going to a hotel, where Jordan was waiting for her.
Just as she was about to do something with Jordan in bed, Sarah burst in with Frank.
Frank slapped her on the head for the first time. Yvonne, when she was a rebellious child, had run away from home and threatened to cut all ties with her father. Because of this, Yvonne completely broke up with Frank.
An idea flashed into Yvonne's mind.
She was reborn!
