Ysabella came out of her room too. She felt a bit awkward because she did not inform Tyrone that Vania would be coming.Tyrone nodded at the girls. He asked, "What do you girls want to eat?""I have been starving! This brings me back to the days you two crashed at my place." Vania then dragged Ysabella with her and came downstairs.Vania was very excited because she couldn't believe that she got to stay in a luxurious mansion. A dreamy mansion like this only existed in her fantasy, and she got to see one today. Who would have known that a loser like Tyrone could be this rich?"Tyrone, how did you get the money to buy this mansion? I'm curious," Vania asked frankly.Ysabella, while appalled by her bestie's straightforwardness, was also curious about the answer. She looked at Tyrone expectantly."Uhm … Let me cook for you." Before Tyrone could flee the scene, Vania quickly grabbed Tyrone by his elbow to stop him from leaving. "You see, the company works with the Prescotts from Shor
"Don't worry about it. The owner of Providence Group and I go way back," said Tyrone nonchalantly."No way!" Aloysius exclaimed incredulously. "Mr. Hendrick, the owner of Providence Group is a mysterious wealthy man. There's no way you personally know someone godlike like him."Even the most successful entrepreneurs in Shoredale had not met the owner of Providence Group. Tyrone was a rising star, but that didn't mean that Providence Group would entertain Tyrone.While the Prescotts agreed to help Tyrone move into Shoredale, they didn't expect Tyrone to attack Providence Group right away.Tyrone chuckled. "Godlike? He is flawed in my eyes. Just drive."Aloysius was flabbergasted by Tyrone's confidence. It took him a while to remember that he should ask the chauffeur to drive.Meanwhile, Irvin was idling on the top floor of Providence Tower. He was bored because he hadn't had anything to do for months."Sir, the financial report from last month is out. Our net income is 1.2 billio
While neutrality seemed to be the best solution, no one in their right mind would ruffle a vulture's feather for mere fledglings."Tyrone, you were in Stillmond. You know Elijah would hunt you down. So why are you dragging me into this? Unless the others are helping you?"Tyrone shook his head. Even accounting for Serena, he didn't have much help."Tsk," Irvin protested. Tyrone came to him without any bargaining chips. "Tyrone, no one would antagonize you if you just lead a normal life. But you have the audacity to go up against someone stronger than you before you learn how to walk. Didn't we teach you that this is suicidal?"Tyrone knew that this talk was over. However, he wasn't too bummed about it. The game had always been this competitive. Serena might have helped him, but Tyrone did not trust her completely.He still remembered vividly that he once had a fight with another brother, Eaton. Serena only intervened once the adults appeared so that she would be seen as the peace-
"Shoredale is such a great place. I don't feel like going back to my tiny town anymore," Tyrone said as he lounged on the couch, briefly forgetting the men he had planted outside."If you can defeat me, you can have this place.""I can defeat you."The brothers spoke casually as if they were waiting for someone to arrive. Before long, Irvin's underling came to whisper something into his ear."Tyrone, I have an old friend of yours that you'd like to meet," said Irvin with a sly grin. Elijah was here. Tyrone would be dead soon.Once Tyrone was removed from the inheritance war and Elijah got what he was after, Irvin could live his dream life."I, too, have an old friend of yours that you'd like to meet," replied Tyrone."What a coincidence!" Irvin was getting impatient. "Why don't we meet them together?"There were two sharp knocks on the door before it swung open. Elijah walked in."Elijah!" Irvin greeted his older brother."Hi, Irvin," Elijah nodded as he glanced at Tyrone.I
Aloysius felt a chill run down his spine. He was no stranger to dangerous situations as he had built his business from the ground up. However, compared to the internal feud between these three Hendrick brothers, he had never felt this insignificant. It was like he was a bug ready to be squashed.The tension rose."Guilty? Of what? This is your territory. He's your man. You have the gun. What does Aloysius have anything to do with me? He knows about our family now. You might as well dispose of him," Tyrone said in a carefree tone.Aloysius was infuriated. He thrashed violently to get closer to Tyrone. He bellowed, "You're a piece of trash from a small town. You don't get to decide if I live or die. I should have strangled you to avenge my son!"Irvin was surprised. He had assumed Tyrone colluded with Aloysius, but it did not seem so. Maybe Tyrone and Aloysius were acting. Unsure of what to do, Irvin looked at Elijah. He nodded in response. Irvin grinned and gestured to becko
"You think I'm dumb enough to let you go? Among all our brothers and sisters, you pose the greatest threat. Others are either content with a simple life or too afraid to look me in the eyes. Now that you're here, I should get rid of you for good."As your brother, I might not be allowed to kill you. But once I become the head of the family …" Elijah sniggered. "You won't be able to protect Ysabella for long."The winner couldn't be any more obvious. Irvin grinned, too. "Elijah, you've said many times how beautiful Ysabella is. I can't wait to see her."As soon as Irvin finished his sentence, Tyrone dashed forward and slammed him to the ground by his neck."Say that again." That was Tyrone's greatest peeve.Irvin shouted, "Elijah, look! Tyrone has gone crazy. He wants to kill me. Get your men here and stop him."Elijah didn't entertain Irvin. He gazed at Tyrone intensely, sensing the murderous intent behind his eyes."Tyrone, kill Irvin here, and you're done for.""I won't kill
Time ground to a halt. Tarzan lowered his eyes and shot a disappointed look at Tyrone, who was shorter than he was. Tarzan had thought he'd found himself a worthy opponent, and it would be a thrilling match. To his dismay, Tyrone's punch was soft and weak.Irvin and Elijah weren't surprised. Tyrone was no match for Tarzan. It had always been a one-sided fight, and Tyrone would get beaten.Suddenly, to everyone's surprise, Tyrone grinned. He condensed all his energy into his middle finger and did a small flick.A loud explosion echoed through the building. Tarzan was hurled backward like a bowling ball, knocking out the Ironsteel Army behind him. His body fell to the ground seconds later. Elite fighters like them were powerless against this force."How can this be?" Irvin refused to believe that Tarzan had been knocked out. He walked to the corridor and looked at the fallen masses. Irvin gulped. If Tyrone had done that to him, his body would have been perforated.Elijah could
Grinch sensed the sudden coming force and whirled around, ready to fight. His open palm met his opponent's. Grinch felt a great wave of power and almost stumbled backward. But he held on and threw out his other palm. Elijah wasn't afraid of Grinch at all. He returned the attack with his own palm.The collision was extraordinary. Grinch was at a severe disadvantage. Elijah's strike forced him to take several steps backward, and it was only because Tyrone helped him that he didn't fall and hurt himself internally."What an oppressive strength! Who is he?" Grinch said in shock."I told you long before that he's from my family. He's my eldest brother," Tyrone replied impatiently. Even he would not get into a fight with Elijah for nothing. He was shocked that Grinch dared to make a move."Little Ty, you should fight." Elijah hooked a finger, wanting to exchange a few moves with Tyrone.What happened today was far out of his expectations. He needed to get into this fight himself and
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. Time passed by, but there was no sign of activity in the operating room.At that moment, a figure rushed out of the elevator. Without warning, Irvin took a punch to the face.Tyrone stood before him, radiating hostility. Irvin wiped the blood from his m
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?" Yanis asked with a furrowed brow.It was the Hendricks Consortium, after all. It was a symbol of wealth and power. If they could enter the Hendricks Consortium, t
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. The younger generation didn't dare to continue eating.Even though none of them had eaten their
"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
