The second eldest of the McGregor clan, Yvette is somewhat cold and conniving and people know from the moment they meet her that she is a force to be reckoned with. She craves power and is willing to do anything to get it. At the same time, she’s made a life for herself, being married to shipping magnate Chester. They have a young daughter who is at school in Europe. While she loves her husband and daughter, family isn’t always first and foremost with her, which sometimes puts her at odds with Chester, who has a demanding job of his own and has had to be almost totally responsible for their daughter’s upbringing. Unlike Joseph, she sometimes forgets the values she was taught in her pursuit of power. Her perpetual condescending tone and selfish ways make her a formidable businesswoman, but a very unpleasant figure in her personal life. She grew up watching both of her parents wheel and deal their way to the top, her admiration of them turned into determination to be just like them and that determination became competition, the need to become even more successful than her parents. It’s that attitude that has put her at constant odds with Anna. She took that attitude with her to Oxford, her main focus was doing every single thing better than her fellow students.
She eventually fell for junior shipping executive Chester, who was a few years older than her. At first she didn’t like the thought of getting married, as it would interfere with her fledgling career, but was Chester was able to talk her into it, with some help from Anna. When she had her daughter, Kate, she reluctantly decided to put her career on hold for a few years to raise her. No sooner than Kate’s 4th birthday, Yvette resumed her career and enter McGregor has a junior VP. She eventually worked her way up to VP of marketing, making a name as a promising young executive, with other companies trying to lure her away. The more she rose in the business word, the more rigid she became. Her aspiration is to build a shopping mall, but Anna doesn’t want to take on such an enormous task. She’ll join forces with the devious and ruthless Cassandra Lightner to displace Anna as CEO and take over McGregor, after a shocking revelation about Andrew. Will she permanently damage her relationship with her mother or will she do the right thing and put family before power? Yvette cannot always connect with her conscience, which is her biggest flaw. At times, she knows what she is doing is wrong, but continues to do it if it benefits her. The only person, who can speak to her better nature, is Joseph, because of his keen perception of all his siblings. There will be times that he will be able to show her the right way and there will be time when he cannot.
