Tyrone cursed. He gave chase to Mariposa, but a wall of humans stood in his way.

"Yo! Give us Mariposa's number, will you?" said one of the five thuggish guys with dyed hair.

"I don't have her number."

"You don't?" No one believed Tyrone.

"We heard it loud and clear that you had her number. Don't lie."

"Play nice and give us the number now. She deserves someone better than you."

Tyrone was too lazy to explain to them. They were all entranced by Mariposa.

He tried to walk past them, but the five thugs continued to block his way.

"You're not leaving this place until you give us her number."

"What do you want?" said Tyrone sternly. His eyes hardened.

"Kid, do you know who he is? He's Chad."

The leader of the thugs was someone called Chad. He shoved Tyrone.

Before anyone could react, Tyrone grabbed Chad's wrist and twisted it. The pain made Chad's body bend awkwardly.

"Ow! Ow! Ow! Let go! You're breaking my arm."

"Hit him!" The rest of the thugs charged in to free their bos

    "Just answer it or block it. It's annoying." Ysabella was pissed. Why couldn't Tyrone handle such a simple problem?Tyrone decided to pick up the call. "Hi, is this Mr. Hendrick?"Tyrone's mind went blank. He recognized that voice. It was one he could never forget—Mariposa.If Mariposa called him now, did that mean Connor …Noticing Tyrone's unusual reaction, Ysabella asked, "Who is it? If it's a spam call, just hang up.""It's my friend." Tyrone kept the phone close to his ear so that Ysabella couldn't hear Mariposa's voice. "He needs me. I need to go now.""It's late. Where are you going?""He's in a car accident. I have to be there."Ysabella was confused. How could a security guard like Tyrone be useful at the scene? Besides, she knew all of his friends anyway. Why was he acting suspicious?Despite her doubts, Ysabella let him go. "Come back soon. I want to talk to you too."She had learned a lot from the conversation they had last night. She still had some question

    Tyrone let out a sigh of relief. It was all a misunderstanding. The guy Mariposa referred to was Chad.But where was Connor then?"Never mind."Tyrone left the third floor and called Connor. Since Mariposa was in her room, it meant Connor was gone. Almost immediately, Connor picked up."Ty!""Connor, where are you? Are you okay?"The string of questions took Connor by surprise. "What could happen to me? I'm right beside Vassini Hotel now.""Where? I'll meet you now."Five minutes later, the two met at a bistro. Connor ordered a few bottles of beer and chugged them as if he was having a celebration. The sight of it put Tyrone's mind at ease."You have no idea how scary it was, Ty. I was about to leave when Mariposa came back.""She didn't see you?"Connor rolled his eyes. "Of course not. I, Connor, am the greatest thief there is. You won't even notice me if I truly want to fool you."Tyrone knew that Connor wasn't exaggerating. He was capable of doing that. The two then took

    So it was indeed Tara.Tyrone inquired further, "Karl, the Munns should be doing well, right? Why is Tara busking then?"Tyrone noticed the inappropriateness of his question immediately. Wherever Tara went, her bodyguards followed her. That was proof that her family was still doing well.And the way she dressed—clearly it was one class above everyone in Cleyton.Karl answered, "Tyrone, I have contacted the butler working for the Munn family. He told me that after she was taken away from you, she had never given up on finding you again. After she heard what happened to you, she came to Cleyton despite her family's opposition. She has been here for more than a year now."So Tara had used a pseudonym and lived in Cleyton for over a year already?If Tyrone wasn't trying to get information about Teddy, he wouldn't have entered Callady Bar. They wouldn't have met.However, Tara didn't come to Tyrone and reveal her identity. That was quite puzzling.Also, her phone must be a burner ph

    Tyrone looked at Emerson wryly. Emerson shrugged. For some reason, Loren had the gall to disrespect another company whose scale was bigger than his."If I wasn't trying to guide Ysabella to become a competent entrepreneur, I would have destroyed a cocky company like Skybound."It wasn't because Loren was a prick. Ysabella had wasted so much time and energy on Loren to no avail. Sometimes, one needed to use violence to reason with someone obstinate."Emerson, you and Grinch will keep spying on Teddy. If something happens to Ysabella, report to me immediately.""Ty, where are you going?""Since Loren refused to come to us, I will go to him."One hour later, Tyrone arrived at Skybound. It was indeed a small company. It had a tiny office, two workshops, and one cafeteria. That was all.A mismanaged company like Skybound could flourish if it was incorporated into Sky High. Tyrone could only hope that someone wasn't behind Loren's stubbornness."Who are you?" One of the three guards,

    "Who exactly are you? How did you know all that?" said Loren incredulously."It's not hard to get that information. I also heard that you have a rocky relationship with MilleJoie Complex."Loren slumped back to his seat. If the dark secret of Skybound was just a theory on Tyrone's part, then the part about MilleJoie was no longer mere guesswork.Most people wouldn't associate Skybound, a sports gear company, with MilleJoie, a shopping complex. Not many knew that the owner of MilleJoie was, in fact, Loren's mistress.Loren's wife found out about the affair and confronted the mistress. They fought violently. Loren tried to stop them, and he was slapped by his wife.In a bout of fury, Loren grabbed something and hit his wife's head. Blood was everywhere. Loren did everything he could to cover the whole incident. He thought no one would know about it.But Tyrone's last sentence put fear in his mind. His relationship with his mistress did turn rocky after the passing of his wife.His

    After the call with Loren, Ysabella called Tyrone.She needed reassurance. One, her meetings with potential business partners had often put her in dangerous situations. And two, the sudden change in Loren's attitude made Ysabella think that he was planning something nefarious."Tyrone, come to Sky High if you're free. I need you."Tyrone knew right away that it must be a meeting with Skybound's Loren. But he didn't want to attend it. Loren now knew how scary Tyrone was. If Loren saw Tyrone in the meeting again, Loren would panic. And he might accidentally expose Tyrone's secret.If Ysabella knew that Tyrone had helped her in secret, all Tyrone did would be in vain."I'm busy now. I can't come," refused Tyrone categorically."It's lunchtime now. Can't you squeeze out some time for me? It won't take you too long. I can explain to Mr. Rivers.""Did something bad happen?""No, I just want to have lunch with you at the restaurant outside Sky High."Tyrone was very certain that Ysab

    "And Tyrone, do you have anything to say?" Belinda looked at Tyrone, who was sitting silently.She was annoyed. Yanis only had a daughter. But his daughter married the son of the richest man in Shoredale. She was now filthy rich.It was unlike Belinda, who had to put up with her useless son-in-law."Belinda, you must be tired from the journey. You should get some rest now.""Are you asking me to shut up now? How dare you?" Belinda couldn't believe what she just heard. That loser actually talked back to her."Mom, Tyrone wasn't asking you to shut up. You should drink some water now because you're all dehydrated from the trip."Belinda pouted, "Tyrone, I'm thirsty. Go make something refreshing for me. Unless you want me to die from thirst."Tyrone was happy to get out of the noisy scene. He went to the kitchen to prepare some nutritious fruit juices for both Ysabella and Belinda.Until Ysabella went to bed, Belinda refused to let go of her baby daughter. She kept persuading Ysabe

    Tyrone couldn't remain calm anymore. From what he had heard, he understood that this woman named Lisa was a girl boss. For some reason, she had claimed that the riverside villa was her home to a group of people. The crowd had called her out on it. They urged her to bring them to the villa. She had no choice but to bring them there. She was feeling guilty, so she wore a cap. She would pull the brim of the cap lower whenever someone came close to her. Coincidentally, no renovation was to be done to the villa today since the materials needed to be replenished. Renovation would resume on the next day. Tyrone was there to supervise the replenishment of the materials. He didn't expect to run into Lisa and the crowd of on-lookers. "Is this villa really yours?" Tyrone followed behind them and asked. The group heard him and turned around in annoyance. But they were shocked to see Tyrone. It felt like he had teleported. He was suddenly so close to them. But they were still youngste

    The directors shuddered in fear. Tyrone looked like a devil straight from the pits of hell. Tyrone had realized something was wrong with these people long ago. There had been too many coincidences. Only someone from the inside could have known where Ysabella had been headed. Besides, Ysabella's investigation would have undoubtedly had a negative impact on their interests. The directors quickly confessed to being the ones who hired the kidnappers. Yet when they tried to call the kidnappers, no one picked up."Mr. Hendrick, we really don't know what's going on. The kidnappers aren't listening to us anymore." The man who had spoken up was shivering like a leaf. Tyrone's eyes darkened. Based on the footage of Ysabella's kidnapping, he could tell the kidnappers were highly trained. These directors weren't capable of hiring people like them. Tyrone ignored them and walked out. These people would pay for their actions. …Tyrone drove to York Residence. Louisa was still sitting

    This way, Ysabella stood a higher chance of being discovered. Yet the kidnappers found Ysabella's phone. They grabbed it and tossed it away immediately. "Get inside!" The kidnappers pushed Ysabella into a black sedan.Then, Ysabella's face was shoved into a black bag. She couldn't see anything, and her hands were bound. She took several deep breaths while telling herself to calm down. She shouldn't do anything reckless now, or she might get herself killed."She's hot!" exclaimed one of the kidnappers in a perverted way."Keep it in your pants. She's not someone you can lay your fingers on," warned another kidnapper."I'm just saying. Geez." Nonetheless, Ysabella could feel a pair of creepy eyes scanning her body. She could only endure it silently. The kidnappers drove steadily on the road. After a long while, they arrived at their destination.Ysabella was forcefully dragged out of the sedan. Her nose picked up the scent of nature and poop. She deduced that she must have

    But when she heard that Horatio and the others were fine, Maisey breathed a sigh of relief. She couldn't help but glance at Ysabella, whose features were truly exquisite and naturally beautiful. Up close, Ysabella's skin was flawless.Even though Maisey had already met Eve, she couldn't deny that Ysabella was indeed very beautiful. In fact, she was so beautiful that even as a woman, Maisey couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy."I'm sorry about earlier," Maisey said, gently touching her belly, which still had a noticeable bump. It gave her a slight sense of reassurance.Ysabella smiled. "It's okay. While your baby is holding on, it's crucial not to get too worked up and to avoid any strenuous activities."The most important thing is to maintain a healthy and pleasant state of mind. Otherwise, there might be risks for your baby."Maisey nodded hurriedly. "I'll make sure to do that.""That's good. I've already saved my number on your phone. Feel free to reach out to me if y

    Later on, Irvin got dressed and patted Maisey, who lay on the bed with her eyes tightly closed."Stop playing dead. Wake up," he said.However, Maisey didn't wake up, and a faint scent of blood lingered in the air.A sense of unease crept into Irvin's heart. He hurriedly lifted Maisey, but she had lost consciousness.In that moment, Irvin genuinely felt fear gripping his heart, as if something very important was slipping away from him. He carried Maisey and rushed out of the room.Jeremy ran up quickly and asked, "Mr. Irvin, what's—""Get lost!" Irvin shouted as he carried Maisey to the car. Without waiting for Jeremy, he raced to the hospital.Finally, he took Maisey to the emergency room. Irvin's hands trembled incessantly.

    A black Rolls-Royce Phantom slowly came to a stop in front of the alley.Irvin gazed at the large willow tree at the entrance of the alley, his eyes gradually darkening.He had snuck in here with Ambrose when he was a child. He had been young at the time and had still been eager for what he thought was paternal love.He had attempted to understand why Ambrose liked Tyrone so much.However, after coming here, he hadn't found any answers. He had only observed Tyrone, Ambrose, and that woman from a distance. They had looked like a harmonious family of three.Irony, resentment, and discomfort surged in Irvin's veins.Since then, Irvin's yearning for Ambrose's paternal love had gradually subsided.This was the only way he could ensure minimal emotional harm to himself within this family. It also shaped Irvin's current indifferent personality.But everything changed when he met Maisey.She was money-minded, always seeking small advantages, and exuded a cunning charm from every fiber

    Of course, the Vaughns dared not openly discuss these matters in the living room, considering there were so many household staff present.With many people around, there was a risk that the household staff might relay their words to Tyrone, and it would end up causing more harm than good.So they gathered in Marcella's room to discuss the matter.Except for Yelena, everyone was filled with resentment.Belinda furrowed her brow, conflicted. After all, Tyrone was her son-in-law. In a way, he represented her as well. She wasn't pleased with how Yakov spoke about Tyrone, but the latter had also ignored her earlier, which was a blow to her pride.Thinking about this, Belinda's expression turned sour.As everyone criticized Tyrone, she didn't say much."But in this way, how do we get the kid into the Hendricks Consortium?"

    At that moment, it was like a tiger encountering a mouse. Yakov couldn't help but feel afraid at the overwhelming dominance Tyrone exuded. Yakov's face changed repeatedly.Soon, Tyrone withdrew his gaze, and the oppressive air about him instantly disappeared.While Yakov breathed a sigh of relief, his expression turned quite unpleasant again. He couldn't believe that just Tyrone's gaze had frightened him so much.Tyrone didn't bother with Yakov. In his eyes, Yakov was like a mouse in a filthy drain. He wasn't worth his attention.The more Tyrone ignored Yakov, the more Yakov felt that Tyrone was looking down on him, fueling the anger inside him.For someone so self-centered, they couldn't see the good in others and couldn't hear advice. They lived in their own world, believing themselves to be the king of that world.Now that Tyrone had put his spoon down, Marcella followed suit too.

    "What's wrong, Mom? Let's eat," Tyrone chuckled.Deep down, Belinda was still somewhat afraid of Tyrone. After all, the ruthless methods Tyrone had displayed in her presence had left her with lingering fear.The seemingly amiable son-in-law in front of her didn't entirely match that cold persona."Sure, let's all sit down," Belinda hurriedly responded.Tyrone held Ysabella's hand and walked to the dining table. Observing the spread, aside from the tomato omelet that Ysabella enjoyed, the rest of the dishes were Yvan's favorites."Oh dear, Ysabella, I knew your favorite is tomato omelet, so I specially made a portion for you," Belinda said with a smile.Ysabella's eyes flickered slightly, looking at Belinda with surprise.Although it was only one dish she liked, Belinda had only ever paid attention to Yvan from the beginning. This was the first time Belinda had noticed what she enjoyed eating.Although there were ulterior motives behind this gathering, it didn't stop the emotion

    At that moment, Ysabella's phone vibrated, signaling an incoming call. Although the caller ID didn't reveal the who the caller was, Ysabella knew the home number by heart.Seeing Ysabella's distressed expression, Tyrone looked at her phone and instantly understood the situation. "Let me take this," he offered, picking up Ysabella's phone.Since Louisa had forcefully taken Ysabella away, most of the latter's contact information had been either deactivated or altered. Hence, if Belinda to get her hands on Ysabella's current number, someone must have assisted her. It wasn't difficult to guess who that person might be.A cold smirk appeared on Tyrone's lips as he answered the call, "Hello, Mom."On the other end of the line, Belinda was momentarily taken aback. Hadn't she called Ysabella? Why was Tyrone answering?But none of this affected her good mood. "Oh, Tyrone, how come it's you who answered the phone? Where's Ysabella?""Ysabella went to the restroom, and I picked up when th
