"I need a lady to act as my fake wife for a certain period." "The term is three years. When the time is up, I'll divorce you with 10 million dollars, no strings attached." The man spoke to my parents with absolute authority. Turns out he's no other than the third richest person alive, Eric Laurent!

Meeting Her, Yvonna.

Mu Jiayu was also skeptical of Irene's actions in the heart today and felt that she had become more tricky after marrying into the Laurent mansion.

But after seeing Irene's blizzard behaviour, she felt that it was normal, after all, she came back to ask her for help instead of just firing the two maids.

Irene knew that Mu Jiayu would never give her the money directly and would rather just change the maids holding the money:

"Mother..you..you lied..! I hate you! I hate you..!" 

Irene, who was already standing, ran out of the mansion's main gate.

Mu Jiayu stared at Irene running out, but rather than letting the big bodyguards go, she simply sent Hailey behind her to keep an eye. 

The bodygaurds couldn't leave when Mu Jiayu gave them the reason of 'not being able to comfort a crazy person.'

…...

Irene ran fast to the bus station, it was easy for her to reach here because she

had always taken this bus in her previous life.

"Pitter..patter.."

It suddenly rained. It was out of Irene's estimation that it would unexpectedly rain. The five centimetre bloody cut on her thigh was rinsed clean during this heavy rain pour.

Not long after, a raven car halted in front of Irene and the driver of the car got off: "Madam, Master Yvonna wants you to get in the car."

Irene sat in the back seat while lowering her head. She suddenly turned her head to thank Yvonna for the ride. As a result, the water dripping from her hair fell on Yvonna's suit.

Shit. Irene truly wanted to turn back time now.

Yvonna's expression was very 'unpleasant' to look at: "Dry yourself or do I need to make you, Irene?"

"No need..I can.." Irene quickly grabbed five to ten tissues to squeeze the wet hair strands.

The air-conditioning in the car made Irene shudder occasionally it was really cold.

The driver David was moreover secretly peeking through the rearview mirror, his master's expressionless face now had a frown. He was amazed.

 It's rumoured that this lady was the master's stepmother. I didn't expect the new wife to be so miserable.

The frequent movement of Irene also exposed the cut on her leg. Yvonna's frown worsened, she was in a relatively bad mood.

 Just as the silence continued, Irene whispered: "Thank...thank you..Yvonna."

Yes, today's meeting was schemed by Irene all along. She remembered the life routines of Yvonna Laurent, her rival. She left for work at 7 in the morning and returned home at 6 in the evening. She is also a vegetarian, strong and athletic, distant and cold.

The Driver David saw that the woman tried to talk and comforted his anxiety filled heart a little.

The atmosphere in the car was depressing, his master Yvonna didn't respond and he did not dare to speak as well. 

David was furthermore nervous, his master was a neat freak,he recalled the last employee who mistakenly splashed water in the car, that poor boy was was immediately fired!

The weeping of that employee was exceptionally depressing, Master Yvonna had merely instructed him to toss the employee out of the car.

"Ha...Ahhchii."

Irene immediately covered her nose with a tissue, she had sneezed, in the silent atmosphere of the car, it was very loud.

Irene's lips trembled, she had expected to act cute and vulnerable to gain some backing from Yvonna, but instead of looking like a feeble beauty, she now looks more like a sick shit.

Irene quickly touched her face, no snorts, she sighed gladly. Looking out the window, the rain was still heavy making it appear that it had already passed nine in the night.

Irene similarly pressed her leg wound with the tissues, the contact of water made the wound sting ten times more, the more she pressed her wound the more shaky her shoulders were.

It hurted like hell.

A low voice sounded beside her: "Go to the Hospital."

Irene hastily pressed harder on her would bringing some tears out of her eyes: "Yvonna..please don't, it doesn't hurt at all."

The words were said weakly, but Irene didn't forget to produce more tears.

Yvonna's expression didn't change at all: "Then, go home, David."

Is it because I'm just an ordinary woman? Why doesn't this woman act like a CEO and send her to the damn hospital...?

Irene rolled her eyes and came up with another plan, she slammed her skull back to the seat shutting her eyes.

The driver took a closer glance from the rearview mirror, the lady had closed her eyes and slumped on the seat. David was shocked: "Master, the Madam seems to have fainted!"

Yvonna leaned back against her seat and said lazily: "Sleeping."

Irene who was acting to be unconscious furthermore heard the man say to the Driver: "Wake her up."

I'm not sleeping! I fainted you, idiot!

David cleared his throat and yelled to her in a remarkable voice: "Madam! Madam! Madam!" 

Irene's ears bled, this was a driver with a rockstar's loud voice! Irene made a dizzy look and sat up.

The rockstar driver David said to his master: "Sir, Madam woke up!"

Irene was embarrassed, this woman was tougher to trick, but at this Irene's acting abilities scored to the max:

 "My head was just a bit dizzy..The rain must have gotten into me…"

The wrinkles on Yvonna's forehead increased, he loathed sick people: "Drop Lady Irene off the next bus stop."

Irene's heart jumped, not good, this woman wants to kick her out!

Irene turned her head towards Yvonna's face, and this time her acting skills skyrocketed one step more, with tear-filled eyes she spoke:

"Yvonna, they will find me and bully me again...please let me stay with you!"

Yvonna inquired while her eyes narrowed: "Who will frighten the wife of the Laurent family?"

Irene lowered her head and said: "I am stupid and my spouse doesn't like me, and my attendants don't like me..

Irene's shoulders trembled: "Step-Mother doesn't like me...if only my dead mother had taken me with her.."

Rockstar Driver David's head sweated, he wished to stick cotton into his ears. 

He was very nervous, listening to the insides of the Laurent family, he felt he would be fired!

The atmosphere in the car was again a bit silent with only Irene's sobs. Irene also intentionally mentioned her mother, let Yvonna think of her dead mother, they could have a friendship of hearts!

 It can arouse a little consciousness as well.

A pin drop silence drew in the car for a while. After the last bus stop taking off to the Laurent Mansion passed by, Irene loosened up a lot. 

Yvonna appeared to have thought of something and spoke: "David, go to the hospital."

With his master's words, David drove to the hospital in ten minutes. The car was parked in front of the hospital, and Yvonna lifted her foot and got out of the car: "Follow me."

Irene left the car as well, as she strolled behind Yvonna, she didn't forget to wave goodbye to the rockstar Driver David: "See you soon, Uncle David!"
