Reincarnated As the Enemy's Wife: Married the Rival, Bound by Revenge -
Chapter 27: Suspect of Her Identity
Chapter 27: Suspect of Her Identity
Yvonne realized that she had lost control of her emotions just now.
The scene of the car accident was really horrible. What had happened to her mother in her previous life had been really unforgettable to her.
Zachary’s sharp gaze made her nervous.
She quickly put away her phone and said, "I just..."
Zachary just smiled calmly, hiding away the concerns in his heart. "It’s okay. It’s good that you’re not injured."
"That driver should be fatigue driving. After all, this kind of incidents don’t happen very often. After going back, you’re supposed to take a hot bath, drink a cup of warm milk, and then go to sleep. Don’t overthink."
Zachary voice somehow reassured her. Yvonne got out of the car at a spot which was an intersection away from the Taylor Family. After saying goodbye to him, the cool night breeze calmed her down a little.

In Lord Villa.
It was the private mansion Zachary mostly lived in. Usually. He would always choose to stay here if he did not return to the Leinster Mansion.
The whole villa was decorated in a very simplistic style. It looked a little cold, but very magnificent.
Zachary was sitting in the study and making a phone call.
"How is the investigation I asked you to do going?"
"I have already got the medical reports of Miss Taylor when she entered Zagor University. Mr. Leinster, do you want me to send it to your email now?"
"Yes."
"There’s another thing I need to tell you, Mr. Leinster."
"Just say it."
"Miss Taylor... seems to have an allergic to a special chemical. I think that if you want to be sure about Miss Taylor’s identity, you can add this special substance into her drinking water or food..."
"That will be unnecessary."
Zachary rejected the suggestion immediately.
He would not do anything that might be harmful for Yvonne’s health.
"Here’s the thing. I’ve asked a private doctor. Such chemical can be extracted. It’s
colorless and tasteless, and it won’t harm the human body. It doesn’t even cause common allergic symptoms. Those who get allergic would only slightly blush and get excited."
Zachary asked, "Will it cause any side effects?"
"I’ve already consulted a professional doctor. It wouldn’t cause any harm at all if a limited amount of the chemical is taken."
"I see."
Zachary hung up the phone. He decided to spend some more time thinking over it.
He suspected whether the Yvonne was the one he had known.
But if it wasn’t for the real Yvonne, then why did she look exactly like Yvonne? And why did her personality seem to have changed completely overnight?
*
A few days later.
Yvonne’s words at the banquet were well-spread in the upper class of Hiltonan. For a time, everyone changed to a different view at Miss Taylor who used to be notorious.
It made Frank extremely gratified. However, others were worried while he was happy.
Zolia had been completely driven out of the Taylor family. Every day, Sarah was thinking about how she could manage to get her daughter back to the family.
After careful consideration, she figured that the best way was to get rid of the troublesome little bitch, Yvonne. By then, Frank would care about Zolia after he lost his only daughter.
However, at this moment, Sarah did not have the courage to kill Yvonne directly. Therefore, she could only use the connection to kick her out of the house step by step.
In recent days, the gossip about the relationship between Yvonne and the president of the Leinster Group has been widespread, some people even saw Zachary and Yvonne kissing unscrupulously in the hall of the banquet.
It provided Sarah with a new idea. As long as the relationship between the Zachary and Frank kept getting worse till they became mortal enemies, then she could make Yvonne and the Zachary dating, which would make Frank completely disappointed in this daughter.
Thinking of this, Sarah immediately told this new plan to Zolia, who stayed in her hometown temporarily.
As soon as Zolia heard that her mother was going to bring Yvonne and Zachary together, she was totally irritated.
"Why can she be with the man I like?! She already has everything, why does she even want to take Zachary away from me?! I don’t agree."
Sarah said fiercely, "What’s the point of your objection? Do you think that the president of the Leinster would take a second look at you due to your current status? Even in the past, he never took you seriously!"
Zolia was so angry that she burst into tears.
Sarah comforted her, "Well, do as I say. When you become the only heir of the Taylor Family, there will be a lot of people proposing to marry you. Since you like the Zachary, the first thing you should do is to get rid of Yvonne. She is your rival in love."
Zolia’s mind was moved by this sentence.
"That’s right. Yvonne was her rival in love! As long as it’s way to get rid of Yvonne, she was willing to do it!
As a result, Zolia contacted several hooligans she had known recently and gave them a sum of money. She immediately asked them to spread the news that the Taylor Group would destroy a subsidiary company of the Leinster Group within a month.
The news soon got to the ears the higher-ups of the Leinster Group and everyone was immediately gathered for a meeting.
"Mr. Leinster, the Taylor Group have been aiming at us for a long time in hope of our first place in the field. I don’t think this news is groundless."
"That’s true, Mr. Leinster. The revenue of the Saatchi Company has been greatly reduced this season. If we don’t fight back, I’m afraid the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Mr. Leinster, it’s time to fight back against the Taylor Family."
Several senior executives proposed. Meanwhile, the man sitting in the middle didn’t say a single word, his lips pressed together. For a moment, he couldn’t make a decision.
...
This news quickly reached Yvonne’s ears when she was drawing. She got distracted and her brush fell to the ground.
"What? Dad is going to take a move on Zachary? It is going to happen?"
She immediately went to the study to look for her father. As expected, her father was on the call with his partner, and his tone sounded pretty annoyed.
"This news is was deliberately released by the shareholders of the Leinster Group to deal with us. They claim to be defensive, but in fact, they just wanted to find an excuse to attack us!"
"Humph, if Zachary wants to fight, I will not run! I don’t believe that the three generations of the Taylor family can’t defeat this arrogant brat!"
As soon as Yvonne arrived at the door, she heard her father’s words and stamped her feet in anger.
She immediately rushed in and said, "Dad, don’t be impulsive. Zachary would never attack your company intentionally. It must be a rumor!"
Frank hung up the phone and looked at Yvonne seriously. "Who told you that?"
Yvonne gritted her teeth. "He promised me!"
Frank seemed to have heard a joke. "My silly daughter, he promised? The most worthless thing in the business world is verbal promises. Let me ask you, did he write a letter of commitment?"
"Did you sign a contract?"
"But I believe in his character!" Yvonne said, "I also believe in his love for me!"
"His love for you?" Frank laughed. "My silly girl, I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want you to be sad. Do you know who is the former girlfriend of Zachary?"
...
Yvonne didn’t want to know this answer, but she was unable to suppress her curiosity. "...Who is it?"
"You only need to know that it’s a woman who has a personality and character which is completely different from yours. What makes you think that a man who can control the business world would fall in love with an innocent and naive little girl like you?"
Yvonne knew that there was a gap between her and Zachary in age and experience, but she did not believe what her father had said.
"I won’t let you do anything to him!"
As she spoke, she ran out.
Since her dad wouldn’t cooperate, she could only turn to one person for help.
Last time, Yesmina had said that she would prevent Frank from doing anything like that.
Yvonne immediately called Yesmina to explain what had happened.
Yesmina had already made it clear that she would not stay out of this matter. After hearing Yvonne’s words, she decided to intervene.
No matter whether it was for sake of Yvonne or Frank, she would not stand idly by. This was because she knew that with Frank’s power, there was nearly no chance for him to defeat Zachary.
Although Yesmina had already divorced Frank, she still did not want to see him miserable.
"Don’t worry, Yvonne. Leave this matter to me. I will stop your silly dad!"
"Really? Mom! You’re the only one who can stop him." At this moment, Yvonne really appreciated that she had such a reasonable mother.
"If I need your help, I’ll let you know."
"Okay!"
After hanging up the phone, Yvonne felt a little better.
Even so, she did not know what would happen in the end.
*
A few days later.
In the headquarters of the Leinster Group.
The battle between the Taylor Group and the Leinster Group hadn’t started yet, but everyone in the entire subsidiary company, the Saatchi Company, was in panic.
At the meeting of higher-levels of the company.
On the day, everyone was still discussing about how to deal with the Taylor Group. In order to prevent economic attacks, many high-level officials suggested taking the initiative to attack.
But the suggestion had been rejected by Zachary the last time.
"We only got hearsay now. As far as I know, the Taylor Group didn’t do anything specific against us. Taking the initiative to attack is not in accordance with the style of our company."
As soon as Zachary finished speaking, a middle-aged man sitting in the middle of the table laughed weirdly.
"I think there is another reason why Mr. Leinster doesn’t want to attack the Taylor Group."
The man who spoke was Mat Shaw, one of the major shareholders who used to struggle with Jack Leinster when building up the company.
It was the first time that Zachary had encountered such a great disturbance after he succeeded the position of the president. Many major shareholders with bad intentions hoped that he would get into trouble this time. Although Zachary was ten years older than Yvonne and was already 30, he was still the youngest among the high-level officials. Mat was one of those senior generals who did not obey Zachary’s management.
Mat was the most arrogant major shareholder of the company. With his high status and power, he was always disobedient, which made Zachary worried all the time.
Even so, Mat was considered a former subordinate of his father. So Zachary still maintained the most basic respect when facing him.
"Mr. Shaw, if you have any evidence, you may put forward."
"Ha, it is said that the dignified president of the Leinster Group has been very intimate with Frank’s daughter recently. Although we old guys do trust you very much, I’m afraid that it will cause public opinion if we treat the Taylor Group differently!"
Mat was deliberately making Zachary awkward. However, Zachary’s expression was very calm as he flipped through a page of the file.
"Yvonne is just a child whom I like being friends with. My relationship with her has nothing to do with the affairs of the company. If anyone wants to involve the personal affair of the boss with the company, it would be too boring and stupid."
Mat’s face was ashen.
"Well, I still hold the original opinion on how to get along with the Taylor Group. If anyone of you have enough evidence, please put forward it at the meeting on Monday. All right, the meeting is over."
After saying that, Zachary strode out of the meeting room, and his secretary followed him out.
Mat didn’t expect that his scheme would be broken by several sentences of Zachary.
He sat in his seat and looked at Zachary’s back, with his eyes full of sinisterness.
Just now, the undercover he had sent in the Taylor Group had received the exact message. Frank had decided to spare no effort to attack the Leinster Group and would catch them off guard!
As was reported, the Taylor Group had already withdrawn several large amounts of fund and gathered the fund. They would attack the shares of the Leinster Group in a secret way.
The board meeting would start at three o’clock in the morning of Monday. And the stock price of the company would drop sharply as soon as the opening quotation started at three o’clock!
However, Mat would not take out the evidence so quickly, because his real intention was not to attack the Taylor Group!
He was going to personally prove to everyone at the board meeting that Zachary had put the company in danger for the sake of his personal life! By that time, he would join forces with other shareholders to overturn him directly!
Thinking of this, Mat exposed a sinister smile.
<The Taylor Group, Zachary.>
<You guys could fight, and I will finish you both and be the final winner!>
*
After the meeting, Zachary returned to his office.
He calmly recalled what Mat had said just now while he was dressed neatly in a suit and sitting in front of the president’s desk.
After thinking for ten minutes, he listed out all the suspicious parts. Finally, after thinking for a while, he called Yvonne.
In order to prevent the relationship between her father and Zachary from getting worse, Yvonne had been making up for her business knowledge during this period of time. When Zachary called, she was reading an economical textbook. When she saw the caller ID, she picked it up immediately. "Hello, Mr. Leinster?"
"Yvonne, are you alone at home right now?"
Yvonne looked around, stood up and closed the bedroom door.
"Well, you can say it now."
"I’ve just held an emergency meeting. The situation is still stable currently. Your father hasn’t done anything yet."
Hearing this, Yvonne finally heaved a sigh of relief.
"But there is one thing I need to tell you."
"What?"
"I think that there is an undercover in the Taylor Group."
There must be a reason for Mat’s confidence.
If that’s the case, it was likely that not only the Leinster Group or the Taylor Group would be harmed, but there was a bigger conspiracy in it.
"Find a way to tell your father not to act rashly before the board meeting of the Leinster Group on Monday."
Yvonne suddenly became anxious. "Did you get a message that my father has begun to prepare? He doesn’t listen to me at all!"
"Don’t worry. If it’s just a small movement, it won’t cause any big disturbances. I’ll continue to track him down and try not to let things go out of control."
As the president of the Leinster Group, the head of the headquarter of the Saatchi Company, he absolutely couldn’t betray the interests of his company.
However, he trusted Yvonne. He believed that as long as he told her this news, Yvonne would definitely figure out a way to stop Frank.
...
Hanging up the phone, Yvonne became extremely anxious.
As expected, her father could not stand being provoked at a;;! He had started the preparation!
She immediately contacted Yesmina. Yesmina said that she had been paying close attention to the action of the Taylor Group during this period of time. Based on the tacit understanding between a couple for many years, she had basically figured out what Frank was going to do next.
"Yvonne, it’s urgent now. If you want to stop your father from making a mistake, you must get this thing now..."
