Abandoned Super Cutie Adopted by Billionaire Clan

“On the day Mr. Yeats came to pick me up, Marian locked me in the woodshed…” Yvonne whispered, her small hands clutching tightly onto Kelvin’s sleeve. She was so nervous that even her voice trembled.

“Daddy, I’m telling the truth… Yvonne’s tiny voice carried a sob, and her eyes, so clear and pure, seemed to show everything inside her.

Kelvin lifted a hand and gently ruffled her hair. “I believe you.”

As soon as those three words left his mouth, Jan spoke up as well, shaking his head in disbelief. He remarked, “She’s really only three?”

Ian had already been surprised the first time he met Yvonne. She spoke fluently, her thoughts were clear, and she was unbelievably likable.

But now, hearing about what Marian had done, Ian was even more stunned. He thought, ‘Are kids evolving in secret these days? A three–year–old already scheming, locking another child in a woodshed just to get closer to the Yates family?

“With a kid like that in the Yates family, I doubt they’ll ever have a peaceful day again.” Jeremy sighed.

Since Oliver sat right behind him in class, Jeremy figured he’d give him a little heads–up tomorrow.

At the Yates‘ house, Marian knew the family was upset with her. She also knew she’d gone too far back at the Adler family.

So, Marian had to find a way to win them back. The best way? Play the victim.

As soon as she stepped through the door, Marian started crying. “Mom, Dad, I’m sorry.”
