The Invisible Daughter (Yunice Saunders) novel Chapter 269

hapter 269

Gill suddenly lit up with an idea.

She stuffed the meatball container into Yunice’s hands. “Ms. Saunders, take this and go deliver lunch to Mr. Cooper!”

Yunice glanced toward the direction of the temporary office. That did not sound like a bad idea.

They were under the same roof, after all. Showing a bit of attentiveness would not hurt.

Yunice made her way across the construction site toward the office building.

Most people on–site did not know her identity. Wyatt’s wedding had not made the papers, and news of it had only circulated in elite social circles.

That worked well for Yunice.

“Yunice!” A voice rose from afar.

The moment she heard Owen’s voice, a wave of instinctive disgust surged through her.

He came charging toward her, eyes wide, scanning her up and down. When he confirmed she was unharmed, his expression twisted into fury. “I thought they were all crazy, but you’re really alive! Why didn’t you come home? Don’t you know how worried everyone was?”

Owen was practically shouting, his voice tearing through the quiet lunch hour.

Nearby workers and staff all turned to look.

Yunice gave him a look of cold revulsion. “Come with me.”

She led him toward a small grove beside the site, away from prying eyes.

As soon as they stopped, Owen’s temper reignited. Seeing the lunchbox in her hands only fueled his anger, so he smacked it away in one motion. “You still have the appetite to eat?!”

Yunice stared down at the meatballs rolling across the dirt, her expression losing all patience.

Owen did not stop. “Why haven’t you contacted anyone in the family? Do you even know Oscar’s back? He’s been fighting with everyone in the house over you! If you’re alive, why hide? Don’t you owe him at least that? You’re coming home tonight no matter what!”

Yunice did not respond, as if the words simply passed by her cars.

Owen sneered, “Elsie’s really going to give your identity back this time.” Then added, “Oscar’s ready to flip the house over because of this.”

Yunice’s eyes flickered slightly. After a few seconds, she said, “Alright.”

Wyatt let out a long breath and leaned lazily back in his chair. “Make it up to me next time.”

“Okay, Yunice replied.

Jordan lingered in the office, pacing around, pretending to tidy up, just to eavesdrop.

A good assistant’s top skill? Reading their boss’s true feelings.

After yesterday’s chaos at the wedding, gossip had been flying left and right. Yet somehow, the couple seemed completely unfazed.

She and Victor sat casually on a rock at the construction site, marking notes on blueprints with pens in hand.

The Northvale project was set to become the largest hospital in Silverburgh. The layout of each department required meticulous planning, not just for efficiency, but for life–saving transitions during emergencies.

Yunice’s medical expertise, paired with Victor’s architectural skills, made them the perfect team. That’s exactly why Carl put the two of them together.

Victor tapped the paper. “Let me tweak this section a bit.”
