Puzzled, Yara picked up the document and flipped it open. There was a letter from a lawyer inside.
The letter stated that James had made a will before his death, leaving all his assets to Yvette. Now, Yvette was demanding that Yara and Terrence return all of Snyder Group’s businesses.
When Yara had married James, Rufus hadn’t favored her, so she had signed a prenuptial agreement. According to the agreement, all profits from Snyder Group belonged solely to James and had nothing to do with Yara. Therefore, it was legal for him to leave everything to Yvette in his will.
“How dare she sue me?”
Zoey sneered coldly. “Mom, you’d better handle this matter properly, or it could affect Dad’s company.”
Zoey knew that Lawrence had reached his current position largely thanks to Yara, which was why she showed her some respect. But deep down, she looked down on Yara and didn’t want to acknowledge her as her biological mother.
“I know. I’ll take care of it.” If Yvette succeeded in her lawsuit, Yara wouldn’t be able to continue holding her position as Mrs. Yandell.
Meanwhile, Terrence sat on the couch with his legs crossed, eating candy and listening silently. He hadn’t expected his once-weak and incompetent sister would actually dare to file a lawsuit against their mother. It seemed Yvette had really changed. Now, he saw a chance to rebuild Snyder Group.
“Mom, I’m going out for a bit,” Terrence said as he left to give Yvette a call.
When the call connected, he praised her. “Yvvy, let’s work together. I’ll help you win the lawsuit, and when you get the money back, I’ll be the CEO.”
Yvette was taken aback by his unrealistic thinking at a time like this.
“Didn’t I make myself clear last time? You are not fit to manage Snyder Group. If you need a job, I can offer you a position as a janitor.” Yvette’s cold voice that came through the phone sounded piercing to Terrence’s ears.
If it weren’t for Tristan, Terrence would have slapped Yvette a few times by now. “You’re a woman, and yet you want to manage Snyder Group? Have you no shame?” he snapped.
Yvette immediately hung up the phone.
Terrence tried calling her again, but the new number was also blocked-Yvette had blocked him once more.
“Damn it! Just you wait!” he muttered in frustration.
After blocking Terrence’s number, Yvette was about to take a break when her phone rang again. She picked it up, puzzled, and saw that it was from the investigator she had hired.
“Ms. Snyder, the results are in. Zoey Yandell is Yara Cadwell’s biological daughter. I’ve sent you the paternity test images,” the investigator reported.
Yvette’s grip on her phone tightened so much that her fingertips turned slightly pale.
Although she had suspected this, hearing the confirmation still shocked her deeply. Yara had betrayed James long ago by having a child with another man. All those times Yara blamed Yvette forruining her figure-it had all been a lie!
Yvette couldn’t believe how convincingly Yara had acted, probably even fooling herself. After ending the call, Yvette stared at the paternity test results. She was lost in thought for a long time.
It wasn’t until Matthew called that she snapped back to reality.
“Matthew, how’s it going?”
“The lawyer’s letter has been sent. I doubt Yara will have a peaceful day anytime soon,” Matthew replied.
“Thank you,” Yvette said, determined to keep Yara on edge.
Soon after, Yara’s calls started flooding in, one after another. Yvette silenced her phone, ignoring the calls. She needed time to process the fact that Yara was Zoey’s mother.
With Xavier out at work, Yvette was home alone with Viola. Noticing that Yvette had stayed in her room for a long time, Viola knocked and entered to check on her. “Yvvy, what’s wrong?” Viola asked gently.
Yvette didn’t hide anything back from Viola. “Yara has another biological daughter. She’s a little over a year older than me her name is Zoey Yandell.”
