Reincarnated As the Enemy's Wife: Married the Rival, Bound by Revenge
Chapter 24: He Blocked the Knife for Her

Chapter 24: He Blocked the Knife for Her

She didn’t think too much and rushed over immediately.

Eva was pushed to the ground, and blood oozed out of the wound.

The zither case was broken and everything inside was scattered all over the ground.

She looked a little embarrassed, but her eyes were still as proud and cold as usual.

"What are you doing?"

Yvonne rushed over and pushed them away.

There were men and women, who were all dressed in a very exaggerated way.

A boy was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and his hair was dyed golden. His arms were tattooed with dragon patterns. His figure was very big and looked extremely aggressive.

Yvonne sensed that they shouldn’t be students from this school.

"Who sent you here?"

"Huh, when did you call for reinforcement?" The tattooed man who stood in the front said to Eva who was lying on the ground, "Don’t worry, we won’t make things difficult for you today. As long as you tell us everything you saw in the corridor that day, we will let you go."

Yvonne immediately understood that they were really sent by Zolia to seek revenge.

"You’re sent here by Zolia, aren’t you? I’m Yvonne. If you have anything to say, I’m right here!"

In her previous life, she had been arrogant and domineering. She used to be an expert in fighting, drinking and being an badass.

How dare they start a fight in front of her. She was not afraid of anyone of them!

Yvonne exuded a strong aura. An ordinary student would have retreated already.

But this time, the men Zolia sent were gangsters in Hiltonan. The men were in their twenties and very hot-blooded, and they didn’t watch how much strength they exerted. Nor would they care about her status. Immediately, a boy came out and gave her a push.

"So what if you are Yvonne? Who do you think you are? Ah? What’s so great about being the daughter of the Taylor Family? Let me ask you, why are you so prestigious?"

The boy pushed Yvonne several times in a row, and he put much strength in it. Yvonne had learned some basic self-defense skills when she was a child, so she wasn’t pushed to the ground, but her face had turned pale.

Eva frowned and stood up from the ground. "This is Zagor University. You’re not allowed to make trouble in our school!"

"So what? What is so awesome about the university" A girl wearing a nasal nail shouted.

"We’re going to teach you two a lesson here today. Eva, you’re just an orphan whom no one cares about. Even your tuition fee is sponsored. What’s there to be proud of? I advise you to tell me the truth immediately, or else we’ll expose all the filthy things you’ve done in the past!"

Those people came here for Eva today, and they must have made an investigation and preparation on her personal information.

Eva seemed to be very sensitive to these things. Her face turned pale little by little, and she gritted his teeth tightly. Her whole body was trembling.

"Hmm? Are you scared? Haha."

In the midst of the chaotic push, Yvonne angrily said, "Eva, don’t be afraid. They are just a group of ignorant guys who know nothing about the law. Sooner or later, they will be caught by the police!"

In her previous life, Yvonne had done illegal things such as stopping and intimidating students in school, so she knew the mentality of this group of people best. They looked like fierce gangsters, but in fact, they were just a group of teenagers who knew nothing about the law because their parents didn’t care about them.

No matter how arrogant they looked, it was just a bluff. They couldn’t do anything actually harmful. They were nothing like Zolia, who looked innocent and harmless, while in fact, she was jealous and vicious.

But even so, before the security guards and the police came, she and Eva had to endure some physical pain.

Yvonne was ready for a fierce battle. At this moment, a cold light flashed in front of her eyes. Someone took out a knife from the arms!

"Yvonne, since you’ve come here today, don’t blame me for..."

The tattooed men who seemed to be the leader of the group rushed forward with knife in his hand.

He didn’t really dare to kill Yvonne, but Zolia had said that if anyone could ruin Yvonne’s face, she would give the person a million dollars.

The tattooed man thought that since Zolia was the second miss of the Taylor family, she must be very rich. He didn’t know what kind of punishment he might be sentenced to, and he thought that he could get it over with after staying in the jail for two or three years at most. Anyway, he couldn’t get so much money even if he didn’t go to jail after graduation, so he rushed forward out of impulse.

"Hey, Mr. Zane, don’t—"

The others felt that something was going wrong and wanted to dissuade him, but it was already too late.

The tattooed man’s knife had already fallen toward Yvonne’s face. Yvonne had no time to avoid it now. Her white and tender face was about to be cut with a deep

knife mark for the rest of her life when a force from her right side pushed her away in time.

Yvonne screamed and narrowly avoided the knife, but she saw a familiar figure standing in front of her. She didn’t know when Zachary came. Zachary was dressed in a business suit. He frowned, and there was a blood cut on his wrist by the sharp blade.

"Mr. Leinster!"

Yvonne screamed and saw his blood flowing out of the wound.

The rest of the school leaders, who were originally talking with Zachary, were frightened when they saw the scene. The vice president immediately shouted,

"How did you sneak in? You guys don’t belong to this school. Where are the security guards? Security! Hurry up and arrest all these people!"

Zachary had been following a group of school leaders to check the area chosen for the school library. Unexpectedly, when he passed by, he saw that there seemed to be a scene of students fighting in the woods by the roadside—one of them was the person he was most familiar with, Yvonne.

The girl knitted her brows tightly and looked at Zachary’s hand worriedly. "Are you all right? Let’s go to the hospital to bandage it... No, let’s go to the school’s medical room. The school’s medical room is closer..."

Yvonne was very anxious. Seeing that the little girl was so anxious that she was about to cry, Zachary smiled gently.

"It’s just a small wound. Are you okay?"

Yvonne shook her head.

At this time, the leaders of the school came over and asked about Zachary’s injury.

In the face of them, Zachary’s attitude was much plainer. He just responded to their concern for a few times.

The vice president had seen Zachary treated Yvonne differently many times, so he quickly realized something and said subconsciously,

"Yvonne, are you injured?"

"I’m fine, but Eva’s hand is injured. We should go to the infirmary together."

Eva did not refute. The vice president nodded repeatedly and said, "Mr. Leinster, it’s for the best to stop the bleeding as soon as possible. The infirmary of our school contains highly skilled doctors. If you don’t mind, you can go to the infirmary nearby to bandage it first."

"Okay."

"Yvonne, Eva, you can take Mr. Leinster there now."

Yvonne only cared about Zachary’s injury. She took his hand and walked towards the

infirmary.

Although Zachary was hurt by the knife for the sake of saving Yvonne, it was only a scratch and did not hurt his bones or muscles. Those young men who had started the fight were subdued by the security guards of the school on the spot. They would be disciplined or sued. All these problems were solved by the law department belonging to Zachary.

However, although the disturbance seemed to have quieted down, the news that the inheritor of the Leinster Group used his own body to block the knife for Yvonne soon spread widely in the university.

"What’s the relationship between this Yvonne and Zachary Leinster?" The teachers in the school were also curious about it.

"Maybe they’re distantly related? In terms of age, it’s possible that Zachary is a senior for Yvonne. Yvonne calls him uncle."

"But I’ve never heard of any relationship between the Taylor family and the Leinster family." Another teacher said.

"I’m not sure... ah, there she it. Ask her personally." A teacher, who was Yvonne’s headmaster immediately called her over upon seeing Yvonne. "Yvonne!"

...

Yvonne was getting along pretty well with her headmaster in this life. "What’s the matter, miss?"

"Nothing, just a casual chat." The two teachers were relatively young. "There have been rumors in school recently. What’s the actual relationship between you and the general manager of the Leinster Group?"

Yvonne was totally embarrassed. She hadn’t expected that these words had already reached the ears of her headmaster, and that the headmaster would be so gossipy.

"It’s... is just an ordinary business cooperative relationship between two enterprises. There’s nothing special about it."

"Oh..."

The teachers responded briefly on the surface, but deep down, they didn’t buy it.

It was known to all that the Taylor family and the Leinster family had always been competitors. Recently, it seemed that their relationship had become more intense. It was good enough that they didn’t start a war. It seemed that there was really something going on between Yvonne and Zachary.

"Miss, is there anything else?"

"Nothing special. You may leave now."

"Okay."

After the conversation with the teachers, the young girl puffed out her cheeks and let out a small breath. She had finally got through the chat.

However, she and Zachary were officially a couple now. It was just that they hadn’t reached that final stage yet. How much longer would she have to keep hiding it like this?

Yvonne walked alone on campus. When she saw couples holding each other’s hands intimately and shyly, she suddenly felt very envious.

When could she love without worries?

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help calling Zachary.

"Hello."

The call was quickly picked up. Zachary always answered Yvonne’s call very fast, but he was in a meeting now, so his tone sounded a bit serious.

"What... are you doing?"

"I’m in a meeting."

"Then hang up. You can call me after the meeting is over."

"Just tell me. I’m already out."

Yvonne’s originally bitter heart suddenly felt a little warmer. The man had always been like this. There was warmth and consideration in his strength, as well as a hidden gentleness in his coldness.

"I was just walking on the road. When I saw the couples holding hands, I felt so envious. I... missed you a little."

"Oh?"

This was the first time Yvonne had taken the initiative to speak sweet words to him.

It brought Zachary a good mood, even though he still pretended to be calm. He held his mobile phone in one hand and took the coffee out of the coffee maker with the other hand. "You missed me only just now?"

"That’s not true... I’ve always loved you very much, okay?"

"It’s easy if you want to hold hands." The mature and restrained man said in a frivolous tone in the empty tea room. "Not only hand holding, even if you want a face-to-face communication on the bed at night... It’s doable."

The sweetness that Yvonne had worked so hard to brew was instantly destroyed by the man who played with dirty words.

"Zachary, can you be a little serious?"

"It’s my fault. I haven’t dated any woman before at my age, and you’re so lively and attractive..." As he spoke, he turned around, leaned against the table in the tea room, and leisurely took a sip of coffee. "I can’t control myself."

However, the sweeter Yvonne felt, the more worried she got. She worried that one day, there would be a war between Frank and Zachary.

Yvonne wanted to say something more but stopped on second thought. In the end, she said, "I heard that... recently, my father has started to attack a subsidiary company under your charge. Is that true?"

The fact that Zachary didn’t deny it was basically an answer for Yvonne.

"My father has prejudice against you because of me. He always feels that you have bad intentions when you approach me, but he really dotes on me very much! Please give me some more time, I will definitely make him stop. But... Can you, can you not go against him?"

Yvonne was a little cautious as she told the last words.

In her previous life, it only took Zachary a month to make the Taylor Family go bankrupt. She knew that her father was no match for Zachary at all. If possible, she hoped that they would never become enemies.

While on the other side of the phone, the man who was drinking coffee looked a little frustrated.

"So, you called me specially to tell me that you missed me in order to persuade me

not to go against your father?"

"No, I didn’t mean that..."

"Since I’ve promised you, I won’t break my promise."

Zachary emphasized, but his expression became even colder.

"The premise is that he can’t be too out of line."

"But..."

Zachary knew what she was going to say and said, "Yvonne, there are many things that are not as simple as you think. Although I am now the biggest shareholder of the Leinster Group, I can’t do whatever I want. I can only tell you that you will be my future wife, and Frank will be my future father-in-law. I will have the basic lines."

"If there’s nothing more you want to say, I’ll go back to the meeting."

Yvonne could tell that Zachary’s tone was solemn. It would be useless for her to continue the conversation.

"Well... you should take a rest when you have time. Don’t work too hard."

"Okay."

Zachary hung up the phone, but Yvonne was kind of depressed.

<What should I do?>

<In fact, Mr. Leinster’s words made sense. If it’s her father who continues to make trouble, Mr. Leinster couldn’t do nothing about it. It might not be too unfair to ask him to give in.>

Thinking of this, Yvonne felt that the point was her father.

If she wanted to ease the tension between her father and Mr. Leinster, she still had to dissuade his father, who was the root cause.

*

In the Taylor Mansion.

Since the end of the school celebration last time, Frank was particularly cautious toward the relationship of Yvonne and Zachary.

When a man in his 40s became stubborn, he was no different from a child. Every day before Yvonne went out, he would ask her about where she was going, and when she would come back. After Yvonne came back home, he would ask her whom she had met and if there was anyone strange.

Yvonne intended to talk everything straight to her father today.

On one hand, she felt that this matter should not be put off like this. On the other hand, she really did not want to continue to deceive her father.

In front of the study.

Yvonne knocked on the door. Frank was busy reading the contract when he heard a knock on the door and raised his head.

Yvonne’s heart ached when she saw the white hair near her father’s temples. She walked in and hugged her father’s neck from behind.

"Dad, Mrs. Li said that you didn’t have time for lunch. What have you been up to?"

"Those are just affairs of the company. Don’t worry, I will eat after finishing going through those."

Yvonne thought of the darkest time when her father had died in her previous life because of cerebral hemorrhage. She could not help but feel a pain in her heart and choked with sobs.

She snuggled up to her father and said, "No, you need to have a good meal and have body check on time so that Yvonne can rest assured."

"My silly girl, I’m still very young."

But in the previous life, you died half a year later.

Yvonne held back her tears and said, "Definitely, my father is still young, and my father will live to two hundred years old. If there is anything at work that I can help with, you can ask me for help."

Frank felt her daughter’s care and concern and instantly beamed with joy.

"The work can be too complicated and trying. You’re still studying. You can worry about work after you graduate. I’m already very happy that you go back to the family, Yvonne."

Yvonne burst into tears. In her previous life, her father didn’t see her looking back when he was dying. Thinking of this, she felt that she had been a bastard. She quickly wiped away her tears and said, "After all, you’re my father... " She sighed slightly. "But Dad, today, I have something very important to say to you."
