Female Novel
Chapter 229
Chapter 229 Family Reunion In the Mountains When Yvette received the message in Kingbourne, she finally felt a sense of relief. She noticed Ewan's missed call in her inbox, but she had no desire to respond. The profit from the Empathy Clinic was too promising to ignore.
Coincidentally, her family in the mountains was once again asking for money. Compared to Ewan, her true family were the real bloodsuckers, especially since they knew her secrets. Yvette couldn't keep ignoring them.novelbin
Fanny's voice sounded urgent over the phone. "Yvette, when are you going to meet us? People are asking about that girl again in the village. Your father and I can't keep living in fear. Why don't you come to the village and take us away?"
Yvette's mind raced. "Mom, I remember the village chief's son has been looking for a wife." Bringing up this topic made Fanny uneasy. "But you were not keen on marriage, and now he's taken an interest in you."
Yvette chuckled softly. "Mom, he's simply drawn to beauty. You underestimate how striking your supposed daughter truly is."
"Really?" Fanny's interest was piqued. "Then what about-"
Yvette interrupted her. "If this marriage truly materializes, with the village chief supporting our family, no one will dare to meddle in our affairs. You'll be able to hold your head high in town. And as for Gary, he'll have good job prospects too."
"But your father and I are still keen on going to the city," Fanny admitted bluntly. "Gary mentioned the villas there are luxurious!"
Yvette sighed deeply. "I did want to bring you all to the city as well. But now, the Yates family is bankrupt. Aunt Wanda has been imprisoned, and Uncle Ewan is hiding away. Even debt collectors are coming after me. I'm afraid I'll only drag you down."
"Is that so?" Fanny was shocked. "But everything was fine..."
Yvette put on a sorrowful expression. "That's just how it is in the city. It's full of uncertainties. There's nothing like the peace and stability we have in the countryside."
Fanny's expression shifted decisively as she heard this. "Yvette, you're absolutely right. You take care of yourself. Your father and I will head to the city soon!"
"Alright. Given that she's now a wealthy streamer, she shouldn't be hard to locate," Yvette said with a sly smile. "Just search for the Empathy Clinic."

"A streamer? Oh, she's one of those popular internet celebrities we often see, isn't she? She's really something!" Fanny exclaimed. In this era of the Internet, Fanny was no stranger to popular platforms.
Yvette lowered her gaze. "Yes, she's quite impressive." Yvette truly hoped they would suck her dry, and preferably, dispose of her altogether.
Despite Yvette's disdain for her biological family, she occasionally found herself begrudgingly admiring their cunning tactics. Once Wynter reached the mountains, there would be no escape for her.
As the night deepened outside the window, Margaret remained unaware of Wynter's perfect exam score. She had awakened several times during the night, eagerly anticipating the dawn of the new day.
Finally, the rooster crowed, and Wolf trembled in fear in the corner.
Margaret didn't even bother making breakfast. Instead, she borrowed a senior mobility scooter from Susan and intended to accompany Wynter to school to check her grades.
Following Wynter's past habits, a text notification would suffice.
Standing by Wynter's bed, Margaret watched her with a fond smile, while Wolf tried to imitate her.
"You all must be nervous for my correspondence college entrancen examination," Wynter teased lightly as she revved up the electric scooter and zoomed away.
The school building was swarmed with students, all eagerly anticipating the announcement of the test results.
