“I'm not crazy. I swear I am sober now.”
Vito looked firmly at Yayoi and said, "I know what I'm doing.”
Yayoi sneered, "Since you are clear-headed, then you should know that this matter is impossible. Why
do you still want to humiliate yourself?"
“Because I love you!"
Just as she finished her words, he confessed his love to her anxiously.
Yayoi was stunned. "You love me?"
“Yes, I love you!" Vito stared at her affectionately.
"You love me?" Yayoi asked again. Before Vito could reply, she suddenly burst into laughter.
Vito frowned. Was she mocking him?
After about ten seconds, Yayoi gradually stopped laughing.
After calming herself down, she said slowly with a faint smile, "Vito, you are so shameless. How dare
you say that you love me and want to be with me again after doing such a thing?"
At this point, she sneered, "You are indeed shameless!"
Out of displeasure, Vito's face darkened slightly. Although he had mentally prepared for her to react like
this, he still felt uncomfortable when hearing her say this.
He knew very well that Yayoi, who was standing in front of him now, no longer saw him as the center of
her world.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling depressed. She loved him so much in the past, but her love for
him had disappeared in just a short period of time.
He could not accept the fact.
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed his displeasure and revealed a gentle smile. Looking at Yayoi
fondly, he said, "Yayoi, if I can win your heart back by being brazen, I am glad to do that.”
Yayoi was amused. "Since you can say those words, you are truly shameless.”
“Are you willing to be with me again?” Vito took a step forward with an expectant look.
“Of course not!" Yayoi replied without any hesitation. Then she added, "If you want to daydream, just
go back home. You're not welcomed here."
"Yayoi!" Vito was anxious. After realizing that he had overreacted, he quickly suppressed his anger and
said to her patiently,
"Yayoi, I was too foolish to be with Candance. The person I truly love is you..."
“Have you said this to Candance?" Yayoi interrupted him and gave him a long searching look.
A Hint of uneasiness appeared on his face. He stammered, "I ... I will find an opportunity ... to explain it
to her."
“Really?” Yayoi raised her eyebrows. "I doubt the sincerity of your statement. Is it possible that you
want to get me back without giving up on Candance?"
Vito quickly denied, “No. I just want to be with you.”
“Alright then." Yayoi nodded. "Call Candance right now and explain your thoughts to her clearly."
As she said that, she walked to the sofa and sat down. Crossing her arms, she looked at Vito in a
leisurely manner.
“If I make myself clear to her, are you willing to be with me again?” Vito asked.
“I will think about it.”
She honestly expressed her attitude.
Vito's eyes narrowed slightly. Her answer indicated that she wasn't absolutely sure to be with him. It
was highly likely that she would refuse him.
Since that was the case, why should he make this call? He was not that stupid.
Instead of winning her heart back, he might even lose Candance. He would never do such a thing that
did no good to himself.
Although the Young family had lost its power, a lean camel was bigger than a horse.
Seeing that he hadn't taken out his phone to make a call, Yayoi had no idea what he was thinking. So
she urged, “Hurry up and call her. Don't you want to win my heart back? Show me your determination.”
Hearing this, he looked up at her and said, "I will make a phone call, but the condition is that you must
return to me."
It turned out he was negotiating with her.
"That's impossible!” Yayoi smiled grimly with her face turning colder. "Vito, it's you who is begging me
now. Do you think you're qualified to negotiate with me?"
Vito clenched his fists tightly and said, "Candance is pregnant.”
“So you're saying that her child is more important than me, right?” Yayoi seemed to wear a smile, but
her expression didn't change at all.
“Yayoi, trust me. As long as you are willing to return to me, I will handle my relationship with Candance
well, Vito said anxiously.
“Why should I believe you?” Yayoi gave a scornful laugh and said, "Have you forgot that you cheated
on me?"
“I...” Vito's face turned livid as he saw her contemptuous look.
Yayoi continued, "Also, since you and Candance framed my parents, I will never forgive you for the rest
of my life."
Yayoi's eyes widened, with a hint of hatred on her face.
Being shocked, Vito subconsciously explained, "This has nothing to do with me. It's Candance ... it's
her idea ... I swear it has nothing to do with me!”
“It has nothing to do with you?" Yayoi revealed a mocking smile. “I will never forget what you and
Candance did to me back then. You two were so complacent and arrogant, as if you had the right to
bully me.”
"Yayoi, please listen to my explanation, okay?” Vito was so desperate to get Yayoi back that he even
softened his attitude.
Yayoi took a deep breath and said, "OK. I'll listen to your explanation.”
As she said this, her gaze fell upon the phone on the table. He didn't notice her action.
But when she agreed to listen to his explanation, Vito hesitated.
This was about Candance and her uncle. If he told Yayoi the truth, they would definitely be in trouble.
Yayoi could tell he was hesitant. She had thought that she could hear something beneficial to her
parents, but now it seemed to be impossible. She couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
If Vito didn't reveal any useful information, it would be rather difficult to overturn the case regarding her
parents.
She knew she couldn't give up this great opportunity.
Then, she raised her voice and said to Vito, who was still hesitating, “Aren't you going to explain it to
me? Why do you remain silent?"
Looking at her, Vito was at a loss as to what to do.
Yayoi was now the chairman of the group, which meant that her social status had been elevated a lot.
Compared to Candance, it was obvious that she could be more useful to him.
After thinking for a while, he finally made a choice.
“Candance and her uncle lost a lot of money at the casino in Las Vegas. To pay off their gambling
debts, they transferred the company's funds. Your father found out about this. As you know, he is an
upright person. Unable to tolerate such a thing, he told the president about this. However...”
He sighed softly. "However, Candance and her uncle made a false countercharge by saying that it was
your parents who had embezzled the funds.”
Yayoi asked with a grim look, “President Young just believed them?”
As the president of the company, it would be ridiculous for him to bend the law for the benefit of his
daughter and brother just because of their one- sided story!
