Chapter 382 - Secret Exposed

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Three years ago, Yvette Larson happened to get into some trouble when the couple had first gotten married. It had been such a long time ago that she herself had forgotten what had happened.

At that time, Finn Taylor had told her that she could always contact him if anything happened in the future. However, Finn Taylor had been a useless piece of trash, and Yvette Larson had looked down on him.

The latter had even retorted, “So what if I call you? Will you be able to do anything?”

That was the first time Yvette Larson had seen her husband speak seriously to her. “Yes.”

Yet, she refused to believe him due to her own beliefs.

That night, Finn Taylor suddenly handed her a piece of paper. “If you can’t get me on my phone, call this number.”

However, Yvette Larson had never thought of using that number. After all, her husband was just a piece of trash who knew nothing but how to do household chores. How could he possibly protect her?

There was no way she would believe him.

But now that she thought about it, she realized that she probably still had that piece of paper. For some reason, she hadn’t thrown it away.

‘Where is it? Where did I put it?’ All of a sudden, Yvette Larson started searching the room as though she had gone crazy.

“Yvette, what are you looking for?” Linda James didn’t understand what her daughter was doing, and the latter simply ignored her mother.

Linda James had wanted to help her daughter, but she couldn’t do anything since the latter wasn’t saying anything.

Yvette Larson racked her brains as she searched the room. Then, it suddenly struck her.

She rushed to her cabinet and dug through it until she found a dress. She reached into the pocket, and just as expected, that piece of paper was still there.

This was the dress she had worn three years ago. At that time, she had carelessly shoved the piece of paper into her pocket.

In the past three years, she had never worn that dress again, so that piece of paper was still there.

Linda James had been following her daughter around and naturally saw the latter take the piece of paper out. She immediately rushed forward and demanded, “What’s this?”

“A contact number Finn gave me in the past. He said that I could contact this number if I couldn’t get to him.”

“Hurry up and try it then.”

For some reason, Yvette Larson felt that her mother was acting strangely today. ‘She seems even more anxious to see if Finn will get in contact with me.’ 

However, she didn’t worry too much about it because her mind was focused on her ex-husband.

She made the call.

Finn Taylor was still thinking about how to handle the situation at Nile Street when his watch suddenly flashed red.

Shock!

Finn Taylor’s expression immediately dropped. ‘It’s an emergency call! Not many people know about this—probably fewer than ten.’ 

Not only could Finn Taylor call for help with his watch, but he could also receive calls for help.

‘Who’s in danger this time?’ Finn Taylor picked up the call. “Hello?”

He had only said one word before his tears started streaming down his face. He was too familiar with this voice that he had missed so dearly.

He had run through all the names in his mind, yet he had never expected Yvette Larson to be the one calling. “Yvette…”

On the other end of the call, Yvette Larson’s tears flowed freely too.

The couple loved each other, and they were both the most important people in each other’s lives.

Circumstances had forced them apart, but their feelings for each other had never changed. Even the time apart hadn’t changed anything.

On the contrary, it had caused them to miss each other even more.

Finally, Finn Taylor spoke up. “Yvette, did something happen at home?”

Holding back her tears, she replied, “No, I just missed you too much and tried looking for this number.”

“I miss you too. Yvette, wait for me. I’ll defeat Melanie Taylor very soon.”

Hearing this, Linda James was overwhelmed with emotions because she knew that the most crucial part of the conversation was about to come. Thus, she urged her daughter. “Yvette, ask him what plans he has and how you can help.”

By now, Yvette Larson had already lost all sense and reason and did just as her mother instructed. “Finn, what are you doing? Melanie Taylor isn’t one to be trifled with. Do you need any help?”

Finn Taylor gave it some thought and didn’t hide anything. “Can you transfer ownership of our house on Nile Street to me?”

“Are you homeless now?” The woman’s heart scrunched up when she heard that. ‘Has Finn been sleeping on the streets?’ 

“No, don’t worry about me. I’m going to buy the whole neighborhood and sell it to Melanie Taylor at a high price.”

“Why?”

“Melanie Taylor has been trying to acquire the Nile Street neighborhood and turn it into a public toilet to insult me because I used to live there. I’ll buy it before her and spread the news that she wants to buy it. Then, she’ll have no choice but to do so for the sake of her face. But of course, I’ll find ways to make that place worthless after she does so that she’ll lose millions of dollars.”

Out of trust in Yvette Larson, Finn Taylor hid nothing. However, he had never imagined that his ex-mother-in-law would be listening in too.

Upon hearing this, Linda James acted as though nothing had happened and simply left.

She was a completely different person just moments earlier. She was the one who had frantically asked her daughter to get in touch with Finn Taylor, yet she was now leaving without a care.

Now that Linda James knew about Finn Taylor’s secret, she decided to look for Melanie Taylor the next day.

Last time, Levi Taylor had agreed on coming to meet her daughter but had eventually canceled the appointment. However, there was no way they would miss out on this critical piece of news!

…

San Francisco, the gate of the Gold family.

A Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped in front of the gate.

As the car door opened, Melanie Taylor and her brother walked out of the car and headed straight into the compound.

Third Master Gold and his granddaughter were painting together.

The siblings had no sooner walked in than Melanie Taylor sneered before smashing the easel.. She even threw the painting at Third Master Gold.
