When She Rose From the Ashes (Natalie and Jensen) novel Chapter 598

**TITLE: HereSelf 598**
**Chapter 598 A Bitter Realization**

Yvonne’s composure shattered, and she erupted into tears, her sobs echoing through the room like a haunting melody of despair.

Aiden’s heart raced at the sight of her distress, panic gripping him. “Please, Yvonne, don’t cry. I never meant to hurt you. I just…” His words faltered, the weight of the moment pressing down on him like a heavy shroud.

“Just what?” Yvonne interrupted, her voice sharp, tinged with indignation. “My name is Yvonne now, Yvonne Gunn! You are my father’s son, the rightful heir to the Xenon legacy. If you care about my future, you better claim everything my father left behind and build a life for me. I’m not even married yet!”

Aiden fell silent, the gravity of her words leaving him momentarily speechless. The room was thick with tension, and he could feel the weight of her expectations pressing down on his shoulders.

“Okay, fine,” he finally managed to say, determination creeping into his voice. “I’ll focus on my health. I promise to work hard, to earn enough money and save up a substantial dowry for you. I swear I won’t let you down.”

Yvonne wiped her tears, a small smile breaking through her earlier distress. She had successfully managed to steer Aiden’s focus, and for a moment, the storm within her calmed.

Natalie, who had been observing the exchange, couldn’t help but smile at the scene unfolding before her. The values instilled in the Stone family were truly commendable.

Aside from that one traitor, the rest were nothing short of wonderful. With such a strong bond among the siblings, how could the family not thrive?

Meanwhile, Payne had taken control of the ongoing situation with the Hayes, which reportedly sent shockwaves through Gunn Corp. Many within the company seized this opportunity to reach out to Baron, hoping he would return to reclaim his position of authority.

As for Hayes’ younger son, upon discovering the extent of his father’s betrayal, he had fled the country under the cover of darkness, absconding with a hefty sum of money and abandoning even his own mother in the process.

Baron, overwhelmed by the relentless pressure from the Gunn family, had finally reached his breaking point. In a desperate bid for peace, he whisked Natalie and the two children away on an overseas vacation, seeking solace far from the turmoil.

Jensen’s true lineage had ultimately come to light, shattering the illusion he had clung to for so long. When the Luke family learned that he was not a biological member, they demanded his resignation. With Yulia offering no support, Jensen found himself willing yet utterly powerless to fight back.

Just as he was contemplating leaving the Luke family with Loretta by his side, Rachel had requested to see him, igniting a flicker of hope within him.
