Chapter 1542
"W- what?" When Faye finally came to her senses, Yvette had already run upstairs. Sebastian and Faye quickly followed after her, but her room had been locked from the inside. Faye knocked on her door anxiously, asking, "Yvette, what do you mean by that? Please explain it to us."
Sebastian held Faye's hand and said, "Don't panic, Faye. We'll talk it out when she comes out later."
Faye was so anxious that she yelled at him, "Sebastian, tell me that I heard it wrong. It's not true, isn't it? It couldn't be true!"
"Calm down, Faye," Sebastian comforted her.
Faye screamed hysterically, "She' s my daughter! How could I calm down? If something really happened to her, what am I supposed to do? Tell me, Sebastian, what should I do? She's our only daughter."
If she hadn't acted impulsively the night before and brought Yvette home, all of these wouldn't have happened.
Sebastian tried to convince her. "Yvette will be fine."
Faye found a little comfort in Sebastian's words. She said to herself out loud, "Yes, she will be fine, she will be fine. I must've thought too much. She might have said that on purpose just to hurt me."
Faye knew very well that it was unlikely the truth. However, she could only comfort herself by thinking that way.
For a long time, there was not a single sound coming from inside the room. Faye could not stand it any longer. She found the room's spare key and unlocked the door.
"Yvette..." Faye called out, but no one responded. Instinctively, she walked into the bathroom. The scene that greeted her made her blood run cold. Yvette was lying in the bathtub filled with water. Blood was oozing out of her slashed wrists, staining the water in the bathtub red.
Faye immediately rushed toward the bathtub like a mad woman and held Yvetter up. "Yvette, why are you doing this?!" Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Sebastian, who followed behind Faye, hurriedly grabbed a bath towel and wrapped Yvette's cut wrist. "Let me carry her. We need to send her to the hospital right now," he said to Faye.
Faye was distraught. After Sebastian took Yvette away from her arms, she stood rooted to the spot. After a while, she finally came back to her senses and caught up with them.
Fortunately, Yvette's wound was not very deep. Moreover, she had been found in time. Therefore, she was not in a life-threatening situation.
After cheating death, Yvettle looked as pale as a sheet. Lying on the bed, she looked lifeless. Faye was heartbroken at the sight of her. "Look at me please, Yvette, Say something, won’t you?”
But no matter what Faye said, Yvette ignored her.
"Yvette, I’m begging you. Don’t just stay silent. Can you please say something?" Faye pleaded for a long time before Yvette finally opened her eyes. Staring at Faye, tears began flowing down her face. "Mom, I know I was wrong. I was wrong. I shouldn't have fallen for Julien. I will never fall for him again, can you just tell them to back off?"
Yvette's words sounded like she was hinting at something. Faye picked it up immediately and asked "What are you talking about?"
"Mom, can you please call Auntie Karen now? Tell her to inform them that I’ll never go to their house anymore. Also, I'll stop fancying Julien anymore." Yvette was crying so hard that her body was
trembling. "They're right. I come from an ordinary family. I don't have the right to fancy the mighty Young Master Julien!"
Faye grabbed Yvette's hand tightly, as if doing so would give Yvette some strength, and then asked slowly, "Yvette, tell me, what happened last night?"
Yvette was so scared that she shrank under the blanket. "Quick, Mom. Call Auntie Karen and ask her to tell Vanessa that I'll give up on Julien. Don't ask me what happened last night. I don't know anything. I won't say anything."
Every word that came out of Yvette's mouth showed that something had indeed happened the previous night. Moreover, it had something to do with the Kyle family. How could Faye not ask more about it? "Yvette, just tell me what happened last night. Dad and I will stand up for you."
Sebastian walked over and sat on the edge of her bed. He held both of their hands and said, "Don't be afraid, Yvette. You have us. I'll just ask you one thing now, do you remember what that man looked like?"
"Dad, what can you do even if you know what he looks like? Call the police? Or get Fynn to find someone to kill him?" Crying, Yvette shook her head. "It's useless. No matter what you try to do, it's of no use... Dad, Mom, stop asking me. I'm begging you. Just pretend nothing had happened."
Apart from feeling anxious, Faye's heart ached for her. "Yvette, your dad is right. You're not alone, you have us. No matter what happens, we'll bear it together as a family. There's no need to carry all the burden on your own.”
Yvette still shook her head and said tearfully, "Trust me. It's no use. It's better if you don't know anything. I need some time alone. Can you please leave the room for now? Also, please call Auntie Karen and pass my message.”
Faye was about to say something else, but Sebastian stopped her. "Forget it. Let's leave her alone."
Having no choice, Faye could only vent her anger on Sebastian. "You' re her father for God's sake! How could you be so calm at a time like this? Are you still treating her as your daughter?"
Yvette scurried under the blanket and said breathlessly, "Mom, Dad, please don't quarrel here. I want to be alone in peace."
No matter how reluctant and worried Faye was, she still cared for Yvette's emotional wellbeing. With that, she left the room with Sebastian. After stepping out of the room, she immediately asked, "Tell me, Sebastian. What did Yvette mean? Was she implying that the person who harassed her was... No, that's impossible, they would never do such a thing."
"The Kyle family is known to be upright. You've also known Karen for so many years. She treats Yvette like her own child. They would never lay a finger on Yvette, but it's hard to say about others." Sebastian looked out of the window. The sun was shining brightly outside, but there was a nip in the air in the corridor of the hospital.
"What do you mean?" Faye was puzzled.
Sebastian explained, "I believe in Karen and the Kyle family, but Yvette mentioned someone else earlier."
"Do you mean Vanessa?" Faye suddenly recalled.
"Well, Yvette said it, not me."
Faye was at a loss for words.
She was dumbfounded.
In fact, Faye had met Vanessa before. She thought Vanessa was beautiful and charming. She didn't look like a scheming person, but... Faye immediately shook her head to push away her bad thoughts. "I'm going to make a call to Karen and inform her about Yvette's situation."
Before she could do that, Sebastian stopped her. "This matter has nothing to do with Karen or the Kyle family. Let's not make them worried about Yvette."
