Yvonne's nails dug deep into her palms. She never imagined the first one to demand divorce would be her father-in-law, Vincent Valois!
Everything she'd done was for Lucien Valois!
Vincent stood up, looking down at her with cold detachment. "Before this escalates, file for divorce tomorrow. I'll compensate you for your years with the Valois family."
"You'll regret this!" Yvonne snatched her phone and stormed out, her stilettos striking the floor in furious rhythm.
Vincent turned to his son. "Don't think divorce means you can run to Jenna Roland. Set foot in her home, and I'll break your legs."
"Understood." Lucien lowered his head to hide his smirk.
His pulse quickened at the thought of freedom. Years of suppressed longing for Jenna would finally be unleashed.
That obstacle Yvonne would finally be gone from his life!
......
The black Mercedes sped down the highway.
Yvonne nearly swerved when her father's call came through.
"Dad! The Valois family is throwing me out!" She jerked the car to the roadside. "After all I've done for them!"
Leonard Heilbronn's roar vibrated through the speaker. "I was about to ask your father-in-law for help! Ethan Roscente is targeting our family—we've already lost nearly a hundred million!"
"Ethan?" Ice flooded Yvonne's veins.
"Our stocks are crashing! The company will go bankrupt if this continues! Get Vincent to intervene immediately!"
Her hands trembled.
Now she understood—that insignificant Jenna was Ethan's untouchable weakness!
"Dad... I dragged our family into this." Her voice shook as she confessed her schemes against Jenna.
The sound of shattering porcelain exploded through the phone.
"You foolish girl!" Leonard bellowed. "Don't you dare step foot in the Heilbronn residence again!"
The call ended with brutal finality.
Yvonne sat frozen, her ghostly reflection staring back from the rearview mirror.
Ethan Roscente would destroy her entire family—all for Jenna Roland!
