An elegant woman stood on the top floor of Seasons Hotel, looking at the view of Tirion. She held a cigarette in her hand, and the smoke dispersed in the air. She narrowed her eyes, and no one could tell what was on her mind. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door, and she put out the cigarette. "Cin." Then, Zoey slowly opened the door and walked inside. "Mom." Gemma turned around, looking gentler compared to seconds ago. "Chere." After Zoey approached her, Gemma adjusted her shirt for her and asked, "How are you?" She had been busy dealing with overseas projects most of the time. After hearing about Yara killing someone, she had rushed back to check on Zoey.
Zoey was like a silly bunny in front of Gemma. "I'm not doing well at all, Mom." Gemma's face fell immediately. "Who dares to make my daughter feel aggrieved? Was it Jeremiah?" She clenched her fists, thinking that Jeremiah had a death wish. She couldn't believe he would bully the Zelniks after he becthe head of the Lane family.
Zoey hurriedly shook her head. "It's not him. Jerry's nice to me." "Then, who was it?" "It's Yvette. I've told you about her before. She's Xavier's wife, which makes her my future sister-in-law," Zoey said.

Although Zoey wasn't Gemma's actual daughter, she had raised the latter like her own. Zoey had always been arrogant, and no one would dare to bully her at all. "Mom, you have no idea how scheming she is. She actually secretly seduced Jerry. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it at all," Zoey cried and complained.
When Gemma heard that, she was instantly infuriated. "I hate bitches who interfere in other people's relationships the most!" Then, she patted Zoey's shoulders. "Don't worry. I'll get justice for you." "Alright." Zoey nodded. She knew Gemma had tricks up her sleeves and wouldn't be defeated easily like Yara. "Now, stop crying. My daughter can never be this weak." "Alright." After Gemma comforted Zoey for a while, she called someone to investigate Yvette.
That afternoon, a Lamborghini slowly stopped at Dewberry Manor's entrance.
Yvette was composing music when she was interrupted by her phone ringing. When she accepted the call, she heard someone coldly saying, "Cout." She felt confused and walked out of the manor. Then, she saw there was an unfamiliar car parked outside. When the window rolled down, she saw a woman's weathered face, indicating she had experienced a lot in life.
Yvette had only seen Gemma once Conty-se during the engagement. Now that she saw the latter again, she recognized her immediately.
Although Gemma didn't look special, her elegance wasn't something that could be forgotten easily.
Yvette walked out and greeted, saying, "Ms. Zelnik." Gemma was surprised; she hadn't expected Yvette to still remember her.

She had never liked to beat around the bush, so she got straight to the point and took out a check "You can Look out fitt fill in the amount yourself. Don't letsee you have any contact with Jeremiah again. Otherwise, don't blme for killing you." Unlike Yara and Shannon, she was a woman of her word and would give Yvette as much money as she wanted.
Yvette finally realized Gemma was there to put the blon her, and she didn't accept the check.
"I've always thought you're a great woman in the business world who
could tell right from wrong, Ms.
Zelnik. It seems like you're nothing special at all. Jeremiah is my hat husband's brother, so how am I going to avoid him all the time?"
When Gemma heard that, there was a meaningful gaze in her eyes. That was the first tsomeone had dared to talk back to her. She thought Yvette really had a death wish. She didn't say another word. It seemed as if the driver had been paid in advance and given directions. He immediately backed up the car before driving toward Yvette. X
