Chapter 6

However, since Simon's body was too weak, he only remained conscious for a while before falling asleep again. Yet, that was the least of Francesco's concerns. He stared at Simon and was stuck in a daze for a while. "What a miracle! "This is really a miracle! "Mr. Carter's condition has stabilized!" Though he was certain that Simon would die, the latter's condition suddenly improved. "Mr. Wyatt, is Mr. Carter alright now?" the middle-aged man beside him asked cautiously. The man was Simon's assistant, Gordon Clark. He often planned Simon's schedules and took care of his living arrangements. "He's alright at the moment, but…" Francesco paused. After checking his body again, he realized that Simon's illness was only temporarily controlled. Apart from that, there were acupuncture marks on the latter's temples and chest. Francesco wondered, "Is Yolanda skilled in medicine?" Then, he tried to remain calm and smiled at Gordon. "He's fine at the moment, but he'll only be able to live on for a few more months. If he doesn't get proper treatment within this period, he will still have a heart failure." Though he didn't want to admit it, Yolanda saved Simon's life. "What are we waiting for? Let's treat Mr. Carter's illness now!" Gordon yelled anxiously. Meanwhile, Francesco sighed, "I can't help him… We have to ask Yolanda for help instead!" If Yolanda didn't cure Simon's sickness fully, the hospital would've taken credit for rescuing him. However, since he required more treatment after this, they wouldn't have been able to claim credit for it either. "The Henderson family?" Gordon wasn't from Riverdale City, so he didn't know who the Hendersons were. "The Henderson family is a relatively rich family who are managing a business. Their reputation isn't very remarkable. The ugly and fat girl who you saw just now belongs to that family. "I'm not sure what methods she used to treat Mr. Carter, but his condition has stabilized. If we want to cure his sickness completely, we'll have to find her." Though the hospital wasn't able to claim credit for Yolanda's work, they pushed all the responsibility of treating Simon to her. As such, Simon's condition wouldn't be any of their business in the future. If Yolanda couldn't save him, it meant that she was just pretending to be capable. "The Henderson family? I got it." After thinking about it, Gordon took out his phone and called someone. … Once Yolanda returned to the Henderson residence, Diana started scolding her shrilly. "Where did you go earlier on? You just came out from the juvenile detention center. Do you want to go back in now? "What did I do to deserve such an embarrassment in our family?" Diana looked at Yolanda resentfully. She felt that Yolanda, who was useless and ugly, had tarnished her image! If not for the sake of her own reputation, Diana would've cut off ties with the latter. Meanwhile, Yolanda looked indifferent when she heard that. After being reborn, she experienced familial relationships that were different from her past life. In her past life, she had four brothers and teachers who doted on her. She didn't know that not all family members loved one another. However, when Diana scolded her harshly, she felt the sadness that the original Yolanda experienced. The original Yolanda was utterly devastated. Since she couldn't contact her brothers at the moment, Yolanda decided to remain in the Henderson residence and take back whatever Yvonne had stolen from the original Yolanda. It was repayment for taking over the original Yolanda's body. While she thought of a plan, someone suddenly hurled a book at her. Though she wanted to dodge it, the poison in her body restricted her movements. "Smack!" The book hit her face. "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and revise your traditional painting knowledge! We're going to attend an art exhibition tomorrow. If you embarrass me there, you'll get it from me!" "Mom, Yolanda has always been wasting away her life like this. I brewed some lemon tea to soothe your throat. Don't hurt your body by losing your temper." Yvonne walked out of the kitchen while carrying a tray. As she spoke, she carefully passed the drink to Diana. Her actions were elegant and appropriate. She behaved politely, like a daughter from a wealthy family who had been brought up well. "Yvonne, you're so obedient." Diana looked at Yvonne affectionately. The latter said, "Yolanda, you just came back. It's normal for mom to be unable to accept the way you turned out at the moment. If possible, you should avoid being around her in the future! Why don't you read some books and expand your knowledge first?" When Diana heard that, she looked disgusted again. "I was worried sick about her. But look at what she did! She ate so much and became fat like this. "Even worse, she didn't learn anything at all! If I knew she'd turn out like this, I would've kept her in the juvenile detention center forever!" Then, she looked at Yolanda. "You should learn from your sister. Look at Yvonne. Not only are her grades amazing, but she also gained the approval of her art teachers. "Besides, she has many friends in school and is the center of attention everywhere she goes. Reflect on yourself! "I would've thought that you were switched with another baby at birth if you two weren't twins!" If Yolanda had been useless since young, Diana wouldn't have been so upset and angry at her. When she was young, everyone liked her, and she stood out from everyone else in her neighborhood. At first, Diana thought that she had two beautiful and talented daughters. Yet, her daughter who she placed all her hopes on became an embarrassment. How could she accept that fact calmly? "Mom, I think Yolanda will be able to correct her mistakes in the future. Just give her more time!" Yvonne stood behind Diana and looked at Yolanda condescendingly. Hmph! When she was young, everyone said that Yolanda was much better than her. But now that they grew up, Yolanda had turned into a failure. How the tides had turned! When Yolanda saw how smug Yvonne looked, she wasn't upset at all. She simply smiled and asked her, "Do you think you've become impressive just because you learned some petty tricks?" "What do you mean?" Yvonne's expression instantly turned aloof. However, Yolanda ignored her and looked at Diana. "Ask yourself if you've ever loved your daughter. She's just a tool in your eyes, and you're using her to brag to others in your social circle!" "What nonsense are you spouting?" Diana was infuriated. Yolanda was amused when she saw Diana's reaction after she exposed the latter. She could come up with many ways to create a conflict between Yvonne and Diana, who seemed to be pretty close. But, instead of plotting in secret, it would be better to just reveal the truth directly. Before Yolanda left, she looked at Yvonne with pity in her eyes. "If you're not that capable in the future, she'll treat you like how she treats me now. "You're quite pitiful. Other children get unconditional love from their mothers without having to do anything, but you need to put in effort and trick her into loving you. "If you have nothing better to do, you should consider if what you did to get her attention was worth it or not." After that, Yolanda left the living room and headed to her bedroom. On the other hand, Yvonne stood in the same spot and started blanking out. Gradually, the expression on her face turned bitter.
