With a half-hearted chuckle, Yarmine piped up, "Ms. White, I didn't expect you
Irene casually sauntered over to Yonas, slipping her arm into his like they were a couple. "Yonas offered me a lift. Ms. Sanchez, you don't look too good."
Yasmine housed her bag of meds, her voice at. "Yeah, not feeling my best."
Irene flashed her own bag of pills with a smirk. "Oh, we're on the same meds. Looks like we've got more in common than I thought, Ms. Sanchez." Yamine's expression fell, realization dawning on her that Yonas had come with Irene. "That's quite a coincidence," she muttered under her breath. She was too drained to read Yonas's reaction, and with Irene's scrutinizing gaze, she felt an overwhelming desire to say nothing at all.
As Yonas's girlfriend, she felt oddly out of place, as if Irene was the real deal
"How's Yoselin these days? I've seen the rumors online about you, Ms. Sanchez, but I know they're not true, Irene said, her voice dripping with fake

Yasmine gave a slight nod. "Yoselin's getting better, but it's slow going.
Yoselin clung to Yasmine, peering at Yonas and Irene with a timid gaze, as if they were strangers.
"By the way, Ms. Sanchez, I mentioned I'd love to treat you to a meal. How about today? What do you think, Yonas? Irene asked.
Irene playfully jostled Yonas's arm, their interaction almost too intimate fo

However, Yonas looked at Yasmine.

Yasmine was silent, momentarily lost and unsure of what Yonas was getting at. Seeing no warmth in his eyes, she suspected he was hinting for her to decline.

She had no intention of going, 10 her reason for being there.
Irene seemed to suddenly remember, quickly responding. "My apologies. I almost forgot You should go. Ms. Sancher.
Yasmine nodded, casting one last lingering glance at Yonas. Although she couldn't fathom Yonas's thoughts, her heart ached unbearably, like wwiching her home burn helplessly from the sidelines.
After Yasmine left, Yonas watched them depart, his gaze growing colder as he spoke. "The kidnapping really set Yoselin back." Irene looked at him with concern and advised, "Why not consult a professional psychiatrist! Ms. Sanchez is talented, but she's not yet. Soucrity has many experts. There's a doctor, Eric Smith, who's recently returned from abroad and is highly recommended."

Yonas stared at her, searching for any sign of unease, but he found none. From start to finish, Irene spoke calmly, as if the kidnapping had nothing to do with her.
"Come to think of it, the day I picked you up. Yoselin and

Irene chuckled lightly and said, "What terrible timing. It's eerily similar to the kidnapping a few years back. If Ms. Sanchez could regain her memory, she might recall something. I know several excellent psychiatrists I could refer her to. What do you think?" The
eyes met with a calm exterior masking the tension beneath. Both of them were aware of the secret, yet neither dared to let it out.
Yonas's eyes softened as he lowered his gaze and said coldly. "Let's go."

In just two days, Yvette had felt extreme oppression, and she even considered leaving. At this point, she snapped.
Xavier, what do you want from me? Are you still thinking about Yasmine? I've already deleted the article myself?" she cried.
Xavier glanced at her and then looked away coldly. "Is just deleting it enough? What about the harm to Yasmine?
Yvette nearly lost her balance, looking at Xavier in disbelief. "So what? Should I go apologize to her? Xavier, do you want me to apologize to her!
"Isn't that the least you should do?" Xavier countered.
ver used to treat me this way. All I did was question things
Yvette cried and then laughed. Tm your wife, and you treat me like this? You never reasonably. Why..."
Suddenly, Xavier stood up, slamming his laptop shut. "Reasonable questioning? And those rumors you spread online? Were they reasonable questioning too? I've always been clear on how I feel about you. If you hadn't been so determined to harm her, I would sull treat you the same way!"
Yvette's face turned red, but she didn't say anything more, fearful of an angry Xavier. These past two days, no matter what she said to Xavier, it was as if he didn't hear her. All her efforts were ignored, and she thought it was all because of Yasmine. If Xavier insisted she apologize, she felt she could go.
The next day, as Yasmine was coming downstairs, she noticed someone lurking suspiciously at the front gate. She was about to call security when the person took off their sunglasses.
"Ms, Sanchez, it's me, Yvette said,

ay out of each other's way."
Yvette grabbed her hand and begged, "Ms. Sanchez, I came to apologize for the online incident. It was wrong of me to post without understanding the full story. I've deleted all the articles and videos, and I will make a public clarification. But before that, I wanted to apologize to you personally
"There's no need for an apology, Yasmine said, dismissing her.
"But there is! Xavier is ignoring me because of you!" Tears welled up in Yvette's eyes.
Yasmine looked at her sarcastically. "He's ignoring you! It has nothing to do with me."
"Yasmine, you can't just walk away!" Yvette snapped
Right then, Yasmine raised her hand and slapped Yvette, looking at her indifferently. She was fed up.
"You dare hili me?" Yvette's eyes widened in disbelief
