Three months had easily passed. Su Xiaofei was adamant on seeing her daughters every chance she could. When the twins were allowed to be transported back home, she didn't leave their side and watched closely as they were brought into the sterile room where the two would be occupying for a few weeks.

Meanwhile, Ye Mingyu continued to spiral into depression as she couldn't get any roles from the auditions she took part in over the past weeks. She would always lose the roles to others, most of them were those who were signed under Su Xiaofei's company.

Aside from that one film that Han Yize had secured for her, her name was constantly dragged into several issues involving young artists she used to work with. She initially thought that these were Han Yize's doing to keep her name relevant, but as the gossip and rumors slowly became libelous, Ye Mingyu started to wonder if it was Su Xiaofei's doing.

However, it had been more than nine months since she poisoned Su Xiaofei. Since then, that woman had never been spotted in public. Ye Mingyu supposed that Su Xiaofei was gravely ill by now or she might really be pregnant like others assumed her to be.

Ye Mingyu was starting to lose her cool. It also didn't help that she barely saw or even talked to Han Yize now. It seemed to her that the man always had an excuse not to meet her. She was starting to wonder if the man finally grew tired of her, or perhaps he was keeping another woman behind her back.

Han Yize wasn't at the company whenever she dropped by to pay him a visit. He couldn't be found at his penthouse either, which drove Ye Mingyu mad. It was late at night and she awaited his return outside the building of his penthouse.

She tried to dial his number, but he wouldn't pick up. She waited until she was awakened by the arrival of a black sedan car and she rushed to see if it was her lover.

Ye Mingyu was stunned and stopped dead when she saw two people alight from the car. Her heart dropped when she saw Han Yize clinging to a familiar looking woman. He looked drunk, whether it was from the alcohol or love, Ye Mingyu wasn't sure.

'Han Yize, you bastard! You dare to betray me?!'

She glowered at her lover. Not even Mo Yuchen would humiliate her to this extent. Men were supposed to heed to her every whim in the past. It had never occured that she was to be at their disposal.

She rushed to the two and pushed the woman away from Han Yize. Thankfully, the woman was able to keep her balance and stared at Ye Mingyu in surprise. She then straightened her back and glanced at Han Yize with a smile.

"Yize, you've been following me around for weeks and yet you're keeping a secret lover here? We haven't seen each other for years. You truly have changed." She chuckled, brushing off the invisible dirt from her coat.

"I should get going now. You've really collected a lot of hearts to break. You are truly a pitiful man."

Before Han Yize could respond, the woman slid into the driver's seat and drove the car away from the complex, leaving him and Ye Mingyu standing at the empty space.

Seconds passed before it dawned to Ye Mingyu the identity of that woman. Wasn't that Huo Yunxi? How did Han Yize end up knowing that woman?

Huo Yunxi's face had been in the recent news these days as the newest talent joining Su Xiaofei's company. Under Su Xiaofei's management, Huo Yunxi was starting to get back on her track to stardom. The actress even managed to snatch one of the roles Ye Mingyu had been eyeing for.

Bluemedia's reputation had taken a massive leap and had naturally become one of the most competitive entertainment agencies these days. They were considered as the dark horse that broke the rivalry between Top Tier and Golden Star. All of these started ever since Su Xiaofei joined Bluemedia.

Ye Mingyu couldn't believe that the foolish villainess she used to push around was capable of such a feat. The Su Xiaofei she knew in the past wouldn't even dare to do things out of her comfort zone. It was one of the reasons why she was able to manipulate her in the first place.

'Don't tell me Su Xiaofei was the one who brought Huo Yunxi back?' She seethed, her face contorted in anger. She couldn't believe that even at the brink of death, Su Xiaofei still managed to mess with her life.

"Yize, what's the meaning of this?" She grabbed Han Yize's arm, while he was still in daze, looking in the direction where Huo Yunxi's car disappeared.

He turned to face her and glowered at her.

"What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you that you're not allowed to see me here?" Han Yize replied, pulling his arm from her grasp and strode towards the apartment building.

Ye Mingyu was stunned for a moment, before she ran and followed after him.

"You dare to see another woman behind my back? What do you take me for, Han Yize?!" She demanded, obstructing his way.

At this rate, she could feel that she was losing him. How could this be possible? Ye Mingyu thought that if she was able to get a strong support like Lu Qingfeng was to Su Xiaofei, she wouldn't need to encounter many obstacles not only in her career, but in her life too.

It would have been better if Mo Yuchen would fall for her charm again, but that stupid man was still head over heels for Su Xiaofei even in this lifetime. Ye Mingyu couldn't understand what Mo Yuchen and Lu Qingfeng saw in that foolish woman that they were willing to put everything at stake for her sake.

"Just another woman who doesn't know her place." Han Yize sneered, before walking passed her.
