The True Heiress's Return novel Chapter 284

Chapter 284 

“Mom, I’m thirsty…” Rebecca suddenly remembered and used a cotton swab to moisten Yvette’s lips. “The doctor said you can drink water only twelve hours after waking up, so let’s just riisten them first.” 

Yvette enjoyed Rebecca’s careful attention, her thick eyelashes fluttering gently. 

“Mom, do Grandma and Dad think I embarrassed the family?” asked Yvette. 

Rebecca’s expression froze. After Ella publicly accused Yvette in front of the national audience, Selena slammed her cane to the ground, clutching her chest, seething so much she was speechless. 

Selena had invited a bunch of her old friends to watch the livestream, gushing about the pride she had in her granddaughter. Little did she know, it would all turn into a big joke. 

Since Yvette had her accident, Selena hadn’t asked about her once. “Yvette, your grandma hasn’t visited because she hasn’t been feeling well lately. 

“Your dad and Finn are busy with the company and dealing with the online rumors. Once things calm down, they’ll definitely come to see you.” 

“Okay,” Yvette replied softly. “I’ll get better soon, so you guys don’t have to worry about me.” 

“Good girl,” Rebecca said, feeling relieved. 

The next day, Rebecca stayed by Yvette’s side, personally taking care of her. By evening, seeing Rebecca looking tired, Yvette 

convinced her to go home and rest, assuring Rebecca that the caregiver could look after her. 

Rebecca had been staying at the hospital and hadn’t gone back home. Seeing Yvette was in good spirits now, she agreed to 

return. 

“Yvette, get some rest. I’ll come by tomorrow.” 

“See you tomorrow, Mom.” Yvette’s affectionate gaze made Rebecca’s heart melt. After giving the caregiver detailed instructions on how to take good care of Yvette, she finally left. 

As soon as Rebecca left, the weak gentleness on Yvette’s face disappeared instantly. She asked the caregiver to bring her phone over, and half an hour later, she found an excuse to send the caregiver off to buy something for her. 

When Yvette was the only one left in the ward, Lago and Jessie, who had been waiting at the hotel nearby, found the right opportunity to sneak in. 

Seeing Yvette lying weakly on the hospital bed, looking as fragile as a paper figure, Jessie couldn’t help but sob while covering her mouth. 

“My poor girl, you hurt like this and I can’t even take care of you…” 

“What are you crying about? I’m not dead yet.” Jessie let out a hiccup through her sobs, feeling wronged but quieting down. 

Lago walked to the other side of the bed. “I asked Dr. Jenkins, and he said the surgery went smoothly. After a week of rest, you can be discharged. This time, you’re incredibly fortunate to have escaped with your life!” 

“Fortunate? You want the kind of luck that gets your kidney pierced by a tree branch?” Yvette gritted her teeth. 

Lago was at a loss for words. “Well, no one could have seen this coming…” 

He never thought it would be such a coincidence.

“Danın it. Didn’t Shakira’s lucky fate switch to me? Why am I still so unlucky? It’s one thing after another, and now disaster strikes. If this happens again, what else can they cut out of me?” Yvette ranted her true nature now on full display.

Lago and Jessic couldn’t figure it out either. They thought, ‘We have been fine for so many years, so why are things going off 

the rails now? 

Lago said, “We had the perfect chance to swap 

“That day, we watched Rebecca and her fan lakira’s kidney and end things once and for all 

ask Shakira to give you her kidney in the parking lot. Who would have 

thought the Nelson family would be so scared of Walter that they wouldn’t dare use force? We were so frustrated just 

Jessie said angrily. “Exactly, Rebecca seemed to 

at first, but after a few sarcastic remarks from Shakira, she just backed 

down. If it were me, there’s no way I’d leave without dragging Shakira into the surgery room.” 

As she said this, Jessie stole a glance at Yvette to see her reaction. 

Jessie thought, “These days are the most vulnerable for Yvette, with Rebecca taking care of her every day. Yvette must be so touched. In the future, she’ll be even closer to Rebecca and leave me behind! 

‘I need to show Yvette Rebecca’s fake facade soon to stop her from being lured away by little favors! 

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Yvette darkened her face. “Humph, I wondered why she’d be so kind and take care of me all the time Apparently, it’s out of guilt.” 

“All in all, they still can’t bear to hurt their own daughter,” said Jessie. 

Lago quickly jumped in to exaggerate the story, sharing the same concerns as Jessie. They both feared Yvette had a soft spot for the Nelson family. “Well, it’s true. Shakira is her own flesh and blood. It’s different.” 

Yvette’s expression was cold and she said mockingly, “So, what have you, my biological parents, done for me?” 

Lago and Jessie exchanged a glance and hurriedly replied, “Of course, we care about you. Right after the accident, we got a hotel room nearby and kept tabs on your condition, just so we could be here immediately if anything came up.” 

Yvette scoffed, “Oh, and what good is that?” 

“There’s more,” Lago replied with a mysterious smile. “We’ve brought someone you’ve always wanted to see.” As Lago spoke, Jessie couldn’t wait to open the door, and a slender elderly man with gray hair slowly walked in…. 

These days, Shakira was so busy she could hardly keep up. 

Brian took her to confirm the 3% of Lopez Group that was gifted to her. 

It had got everything from big stuff like real estate, steel, cutting–edge tech, medicine, and hotels, all the way down to the little things like courier services, milk shakes, and florists. 

It covered almost every industry that mattered to the people. Wow, this wasn’t just a wicked capitalist, it was a billionaire evil. 

Soon, it was Carnaval. Enrique had arranged for lunch, and early that morning, Shakira played with her cat and walked her pet alligator, then picked up the gifts Levi had prepared and headed to the Sullivan residence. 

The Sullivan residence was nestled in the old downtown villa district. As Shakira got close, she messaged Xanthe, and the whole Sullivan family came out to warmly welcome her in the front yard. 

“Shakira.” As soon as the car stopped, Xanthe eagerly hopped over to open the car door.
