Ysabella's face immediately flushed when she felt the change in Tyrone. She quickly raised her leg to kick him. If Tyrone didn't react quickly enough, he would've lost his manhood. "You'll be sleeping on the floor. Don't blame me for whatever happens if you dare come on the bed." After saying that, Ysabella curled into a ball while wrapping herself in her blanket and turned away from Tyrone. Tyrone looked at Ysabella with a sheepish smile. He had no choice but to take a cold shower. Ysabella was breathing steadily when he came out of the bathroom. She was probably asleep. He tiptoed to Ysabella's bedside and kissed her on the forehead lightly. Then, Tyrone took his blanket and went to sleep on the floor with a satisfied expression. As long as he was with Ysabella, he didn't mind where he slept.The next day, when Ysabella woke up, she saw that she had over 99 messages on WhatsApp when she looked at her phone to check the time. She opened the app and saw that her best fri
Tyrone quickly told Leopard what he had learned from Emerson and John. "You want me to send people to protect Ysabella, right?" Leopard understood what Tyrone needed immediately. Tyrone nodded and said, "Yes. I don't want to risk anything happening to Ysabella." His siblings had taken Ysabella once. There was no guarantee that they wouldn't do it again. "Alright, I'll get some people on it." Leopard proceeded to order some of his most trustworthy men to guard Ysabella. Naturally, Ysabella wouldn't be informed of this matter. Or else, she would be living in fear. "Thanks."Leopard punched Tyrone on the chest quite hard as he said, "We're practically brothers. There's no need for thanks."Tyrone rubbed his chest, smiled, and nodded. The friends he had, like Emerson and Leopard, were way better than his actual siblings. After he had arranged everything, Tyrone headed to Tergot Tech to talk to Emerson. All of the company's upper management knew who Tyrone was. So, they were
Tyrone slowly helped Ysabella back into the bed after she finished drinking the water. Then, he covered her with a blanket. Tyrone's phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Karl. Tyrone looked at Ysabella again before leaving the room with his phone. "Hey, Karl.""Mr. Hendrick Senior's condition is worsening, Tyrone. You need to be prepared." "Thanks, Karl. I got it."Tyrone looked at his phone with complicated feelings after he hung up. He had thought he didn't have any love for the old man any longer. But when he heard that he was near death, he still felt a little sad. He sighed deeply. He was still human, and he couldn't rid himself of his emotions completely. But he still wouldn't be going home. He didn't want to go back to that vicious household. Tyrone went back to the bedroom. He took off his top and wrapped his arms around Ysabella. He felt a little better with her in his arms. The next day, when Ysabella woke up, Tyrone was already making breakfast. There was a
"Oh, and here I thought it was an important document," Tyrone said disappointedly. He looked at the people in the room and said, "Who are these people? Why do they look like a bunch of hooligans.""Who are you calling a hooligan!" a buzz-cut man stood up and pointed at Tyrone, speaking loudly.Tyrone spread his arms and stood in front of Ysabella. "You, of course. Why? Did I hit the nail on the head?"Tyrone signaled to Gina to call the police. He was sure Victor and his guys weren't from the Department of Commerce. "Sit down, you're an embarrassment," Victor growled. The buzz-cut man sat down unwillingly as he looked at Victor. "Don't be afraid, Honey. I'll protect you." Tyrone tried to wrap his arms around Ysabella, but she pushed him away."You can go. I can handle this.""No way. I can't let these hooligans bully you." Victor's men looked at him angrily when he said that. If Victor weren't holding them back, they would have started throwing hands already. They wante
Ysabella's situation wasn't as bad as Tyrone thought. She was kept in a cell, but no one bothered her as she sat in a corner with a cold expression, like she was a tough person.Ysabella wasn't worried about her situation. Her biggest worry was that the company would be thrown into chaos without her leadership. She also knew that Tyrone was probably freaking out. She smiled when she thought about how anxious Tyrone would be. She felt terrible for him, but she also felt happy. It was a fortunate thing to have someone that cared about her so much. Tyrone was finally able to visit Ysabella the next day. But it was in the station with two cops watching. "Honey, it must've been rough for you," Tyrone said as he held her hand tightly. Ysabella shook her head and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. Has the culprit been apprehended?"Ysabella thought she was a failure as CEO because she allowed the culprit to get to the company's ledgers so easily. Tyrone shook his head and said, "Not ye
Originally, the Prescotts asked Lawson to destroy the ledger and get rid of all incriminating evidence. However, fearing that the Prescotts might not uphold their part of the deal, Lawson made a copy of the ledger with a USB drive.He brought it to somewhere he thought was 100% safe—the toilet of his rented apartment in Cleyton. He figured that most people wouldn't look there. The USB contained Sky High's real ledger and evidence of his accounting fraud.Tyrone called Emerson and asked him to raid Lawson's apartment for the USB drive.All of a sudden, police officers barged into the space. "Freeze!""Sir! Help! He wants to kill me!" screamed Lawson.Tyrone pursed his lips and dropped his knife. He raised his arms and addressed the officer, "It's all a misunderstanding, sir."The policeman did not want to hear Tyrone's excuse and cuffed him. Meanwhile, knowing that he was safe, Lawson let out a sigh of relief. However, he was still worried about the USB drive. If the police got ho
After a few days in the police station, Tyrone now had stubbles on his chin, which aged him.Tyrone rubbed his chin and teased Ysabella, "What do you think of my new look, Honey? Do I look like Brad Pitt now?"Ysabella laughed out loud. She wiped her nose and said, "Brad Pitt? You look like an idiot."Tyrone pouted. "Your idiot. Not anyone else's.""Yes, my idiot." For once, Ysabella indulged in Tyrone's joke. Tyrone was overjoyed as if his dream just came true.Before long, the visiting hour was over. Tyrone was escorted out of the room by two policemen, but he never took his eyes off Ysabella."Take good care of yourself, Honey." Tyrone figured he should leave another reminder."I will."After Ysabella left the room, she returned to her stoic self. She then turned to Emerson. "Mr. Rivers, can I see Lawson now?"Emerson shook his head. "It's not possible at the moment. Lawson is injured and has been admitted to a hospital. Only family members are allowed to visit.""Okay the
Meanwhile, Ysabella finally found the chance to speak with Lawson."What brought you here, Ms. Vaughn?" Lawson scanned Ysabella's body with a perverted grin. What a waste that a sexy woman like her married a loser.But thinking of that loser, Lawson shuddered. He almost lost his life to Tyrone."You know why I'm here. I'll cut to the chase. Confess, or you will spend the rest of your life wishing you did," uttered Ysabella coldly."You lost me there, Ms. Vaughn. Everyone saw that Tyrone kidnapped me. What do you want me to say?" Lawson shrugged. "If you spend a night with me, maybe we'll talk."Lawson tried to grab Ysabella's wrist, but she evaded the attack.Ysabella sniggered. "You just sealed your own fate.""What do you mean? Yes, I tampered with the data on our ledger. I'll be locked up for one or two years. But Tyrone? Tyrone will be behind bars for a decade," said Lawson enthusiastically.Right then, Emerson came in. He was surprised to see Ysabella here. Ysabella gestur
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
