Sabrina was stunned for a long while before she muttered, "What?"
Yvonne's father was so excited that he choked up several times. "Sabrina, Yvonne is...she's back. Our daughter is...back."
"Mister Yates, calm down. Tell me where is Yvonne now?" Sabrina said.
"She's at home," Mister Yates said.
"I.. I'll come over immediately!" Sabrina hung up the call as soon as she said that.
Aino, who was next to her, looked at her in disbelief." What's happening, Mom?"
"Your Aunt Yvonne, the real Aunt Yvonne, has returned. She is at her own house now, " Sabrina said.
Aino sneered. "That’s really odd!"
Sabrina shrugged her shoulders. She did not believe it either. Therefore, she could not wait to go over there and see what the true Yvonne looked like.
"I'm going with you!" Aino said.
"Aunt Sabrina, I'll go with you as well, alright?" Minerva said.
"Alright, let’s go together!" Sabrina already started to get changed and took her bag.
Helena hugged her and asked impatiently," Tell us, how have you been in the past few years?"
Yvonne answered honestly, "That year, somebody pretended to be Marcus and gave me a call. He asked me to go to a city down south to try on a ring with a precious stone. As soon as I arrived in the city, I saw that Marcus was sitting inside a car that was across from me, and he actually ran me over with a car. I fainted on impact on the spot. When I woke up, the pain in my body was not as painful as the one I felt in my heart. What made me even sadder was that I was pregnant at that time, and I didn't manage to keep the child in my belly. I then ran far away with my body still injured. For more than a year, my health was very bad. I practically survived the whole time by begging for food. Later, my health started to get slightly better, but it was far from how it used to be. I had no money. I had nothing. I wanted to come home. I wanted to give both of you a call, but when I saw that my face was out of shape after being run over, I didn’t have the courage to come back anymore. All these years, I had been working odd jobs out there. Every time I earned a little money, I would look for a plastic surgeon to help me reconstruct my face. After so many years, my face was finally reconstructed to the point that it looked slightly like me, so I could not wait anymore and came home. Dad, Mom, I missed both of you too much. I thought about both of you every day and every night, so much so that I almost went crazy."
Yvonne rushed into Vincent's arms and
cried for a moment before she rushed into Helena's arms to cry. The family of three hugged each other, cried for a moment, and laughed the next moment.
It was at that moment Sabrina and others arrived outside their door.
