PopularNovelChapter 358
When Yolanda walked into the living room, she noticed that both Harold and Diana looked displeased. Although
Yvonne put on a somewhat pensive expression, she couldn't completely hide the glee in her eyes.
From Yvonne's expression, Yolanda immediately guessed that whatever her parents had stayed up to confront
her about was definitely not good news.
"You chso late every day, and all you do is fool around. You're dragging the Henderson family's
reputation through the mud!" Diana scolded, pointing a finger at Yolanda angrily.
Before Harold could say anything, she berated harshly, "Ever since you got out of the juvenile detention center, |
haven't even dared to go to any social gatherings with the other wealthy ladies for fear of being asked about
you! Can't you be more like Yvonne and lethave speace of mind?"
As Yolanda listened to Diana's words, she still couldn't figure out why the two of them were so upset. Thus, she
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtremained silent and sat down on the couch
opposite them without saying a word.
"Did | say you could sit?" Harold fumed.
Upon seeing Yolanda's indifferent attitude, Harold beceven more furious and got straight to the point. "Tell
me, why did you make a bet with the board of directors at First Academy?"
They wouldn't have known about this if Diana hadn't attended the gathering with the other rich ladies that
afternoon.
The monthly exam was less than two weeks away. Zora had smugly mocked Diana, saying that she was about to
have a daughter who would be expelled from First Academy.
At first, Diana was absolutely confused and could barely hold herself from lashing out at Zora. Only then did she
learn from her that Yolanda had entered into a bet with the school's board of directors.
"If you don't get first place in the monthly exam and the upcoming physics competition, you'll drop out. How
foolish could you be to make such a bet?" Diana shouted angrily, looking as if she were deeply disappointed.
She said, "The school board couldn't have expelled you when you didn't violate any rules. But now, you've given
them a reason to kick you out. You're going to get kicked out for sure!"
In Harold's and Diana's opinions, even if Yolanda managed to get first place once, it would be impossible for her
to consistently stay at the top because they hadn't seen her study at all recently. Furthermore, the Southdale
Physics Competition was a hundred times more difficult than the monthly exam.
To them, Yolanda was being reckless by making a bet with the board of directors and burning her bridges. They
thought she was a fool for doing that.
"How could | have given birth to someone as stupid as you?" The more Harold spoke, the angrier he became.
"Also, the last tyou secured a contract with Dunhill Group was because you relied on Mr. Savage's
connections, wasn't it?"
Harold had thought it was the result of Yolanda's hard work, but it turned out she had just used Gavin's influence.
Originally, he had a slightly better impression of Yolanda, but now his opinion of her plummeted once more.
It wasn't that he was particularly upright or didn't want to leverage the Savage family's connections—after all,
the Henderson family was doing everything possible to maintain a potential marriage alliance with the Savage
family to boost their business.
But Yolanda, who was not yet formally recognized as Gavin's fiancée, used the Savage family's connections to
secure contracts for them even before an engagement ceremony took place.
This would only reflect poorly on the Henderson family if word got out. If Gavin's parents found out, they would
only think the Henderson family were opportunists driven solely by greed.
"You stole your sister's fiancé. Now, you're flaunting your status as Mr. Savage's fiancée to show off everywhere.
Do you know how foolish your actions are? You'll only beca laughingstock among the upper-class families!"
"Grandpa had originally agreed that the eldest daughter of the Henderson family would be engaged to Gavin.
Tellhow did | steal her fiancé?" Yolanda finally spoke up.
"How dare you talk back to us?" Harold was taken aback for a moment. Then, his expression morphed into anger
arising out of embarrassment.
