Anyone with a clear mind would know it wasn't possible, but in his overwhelming love, Grady had lost all reason. He firmly believed that as long as Yonas and Yasmine were together, Irene would be his.. "Grady, I can't believe you're so easy to fool, Yasmine mocked.

"In any case, I've already told you the truth. After the whole thing was exposed, she came to me once, and I d her cover it up. I succeeded; everyone believes that Yvette is the culprit, and that I was just goaded into it," G. colder Yasmine gave him a deep look, "Mr. Grady, I would like you to repeat this on the stand in court."

"In court?" Grady shook his head silently, I've already told you the truth. The rest has nothing to do with me anymore. I hope you understand, I can't personally send someone I love to prison. After all, he would always remember the smile he saw back in high school, warm enough to last him a long, long time.

He stood up and turned to head back to his cell but was called back. 1 hope you'll reconsider, Yasmine said.

Grady nodded and promptly left.

Xavier returned home and started rummaging through boxes and drawers, searching for something. Selena looked at him in confusion, "Xavier, what are you looking for?" Xavier gave a wry smile and said, "Oh, nothing, Mom. I'll find it myself

Selena nodded, "Alright, you look for it yourself. I'm off to find Auntie Wang and the others to play mahjong." Ever since Yvette was put under surveillance, there was some trouble Selena caused initially, but she seemed to have come to terms with it and stopped getting involved, even finding joy in returning to her old mahjong games.

In Mrs. Mitchell's house, a few women were already playing malijong. Seeing Selena coming in, Mrs. Mitchell quickly set up another table, "There you are! We've been waiting for you for a while. Now we have enough for two tables!"

Once Selena sat down, she realized that across from her was Ivette, the mother of Morgan and aunt to Yasmine. The intricate relationship between the Flynn and Sarghez families was palpable, making everyone around feel the tension in the air. Mrs. Mitchell stepped in to ease things, "We're all here to play mahjong, so let's just focus on the game and leave everything else aside, alright?

Selena glanced at Ivette and nodded. She shared a lineage with this Ivette woman, even if they hadn't interacted much. She knew Ivette wasn't a simple person, quite the character, really.

Selena's original name was Selena Mayfield, while Ivette was Ivette Mayfield. They hailed from the same lineage, with a matriarch named Christine still alive, weaving a thin thread of kinship between them.

This mahjong game wasn't going well for her. She really wanted to leave but held herself back. After several setbacks at the Flynn residence, its current strength was not what it used to be, and many ladies who once had a good relationship with her now looked down on her. At least Mrs. Mitchell didn't shun her and had invited hepover to play.

After playing for two hours straight, everyone decided to take a break and catch up on some gossip Selena found a spot in the corner, wanting to keep her distance from Ivette. But to her surprise, Ivette came over, full of energy, offering her a drink. "If I'm not mistaken, you're Selena Mayfield, right? We haven't met before, so you probably don't recognize me."

Selena nodded repeatedly, thinking to herself how easy it is to change pleasantries like these. She had encountered such conversations plenty of times at family banquets before.

"Since we're all in Soucrity, we should keep in touch more often Ivette said with a smile. "Besides, your son and my niece

were married once. Even though they're divorced now, there's no reason our families can't stay connected."

Selena found the situation a bit bewildering. "Yes, yes, she replied, going along with it. Truth be told, if it weren't for Mrs. Mitchell, she wouldn't even bother with Ivette. "Sigh," Ivette let out a deep breath.

Selena asked, "Ivette, what's on your mind?"

"Oh, it's my niece again! She's nothing but trouble," Ivette said, shaking her head. "Mrs. Flynn, I'm sure you've had your fair share of worries too. Let's not even delve into it. I just can't stand that girl. I mean, she's divorced your son, yet she still goes out of her way to get your daughter-in-law thrown in jail. And she's pregnant! How much more exhausting could it get?"

The topic of Selena popped up, and she spoke as if she found an ally, "Ivette, you have no idea. This girl, I don't know what grudge she has against our family, but she's been putting my daughter in jail time and again. This time, though, she didn't land her in jail but sent her to a mental hospital instead. My daughter is a lively person, perfectly healthy with no illnesses, and now she can only be a patient in a mental hospital. I'm really heartbroken..."

A hint of coldness flashed in Ivette's eyes. You're so heartbroken, yet you still come over to play Mahjong? But she didn't

A gleam appeared in Selena's eyes. "Ivette, our thoughts are perfectly aligned. We're not saying we want to harm her, just give her a lesson."

"Then Mrs. Flynn, tell me, how should we teach her this lesson?" Ivette asked.

Selena pondered for a moment. "Here's what I'm thinking" She leaned closer to Ivette and whispered a few words in her ear. The two shared a knowing smile.

Xavier spent nearly three hours searching through his house before he finally found what he was looking for-an old, dusty, photo album. The first picture was their wedding photo with Yashine. The pure white dress she wore made her look so pure and holy. Xavier, standing beside her in a matching suit, seemed indifferent, as if he was not the groom, but just an outsider.

Besides the first picture, the rest were quite similar. Back then, Xavier felt that taking wedding photos was a complete waste of time and had no intention of posing for them, However, due to Yasmine's insistence, he had no choice but to oblige and shoot a few sets. Now, as it turns out, the photos he was reluctane to take have become his only solace in reminiscing.

He wasn't sure why he dug out the wedding album. Maybe, after being accustomed to Yasmine's cold and distant demeanor. he longed to see how it was when she loved him. In the photos, Yasmine wore a charming dress, smiling at the man by her side. Her slightly flushed cheeks and twinkling eyes portrayed the demeanor of a woman in love.

Such affection was so profound and moving, but why does she no longer feel the same? Can love for someone really fade away? Xavier couldn't believe that Yasmine had completely fallen out of love with him.
