Ysabella felt a pair of malicious eyes on her out of nowhere. She looked around but found no one other than Iris. Plus, Iris looked perfectly normal.

Was she just being paranoid? Ysabella returned to the task at hand.

Nia clung to Ysabella and asked, "Fiona, can we have lunch together?"

Ysabella patted Nia's head and said, "Well, that depends if I'm busy this noon."

Nia turned to Tyrone and pouted, "What about you, Tyrone?"

Tyrone smiled wryly and turned to Ysabella. "If you don't mind, Ms. Crenshaw, let's have lunch together." Ysabella knew that there was no getting out of it, so she nodded.

From afar, the three looked like a family, especially Tyrone and Ysabella, who seemed like a couple. The thought made Tyrone feel uncomfortable.

Unbeknownst to all of them, there was a subtle change in Iris' mood. Nia saw Iris and thought something was wrong with her. However, she couldn't pinpoint what.

After Tyrone returned to the office, he received a call from Horatio.

Everything seemed to indicate that things were getting better for Maisey.Tyrone carried the box containing Mumbo and walked in. Mumbo was a very long snake. Fortunately, Tyrone was strong enough to carry it. When Tyrone reached the door, he knocked on it. Maisey quickly answered the door.When Maisey saw Mumbo in Tyrone's hands, her eyes faltered. "He gave it to you?"Tyrone nodded. "He said it was a gift for you, so he didn't ask for any money." Maisey nodded in silence. Her eyes brimmed with emotion, but she sighed in the end. Her tummy was getting bigger. She looked chubbier than before.Perhaps life was simpler here. Maisey looked more serene and at peace. If Tyrone had to find another word to describe her, it would be motherly. Since Maisey couldn't carry the heavy box, she had Tyrone carry Mumbo to

    But, would things really be so simple? Ysabella didn't believe it. Louisa was such a cunning person. Every move she made was definitely planned out. If Louisa was ready to let her show her true face to Tyrone, there was definitely some nefarious plot behind it. Ysabella quickly composed herself. She decided against doing anything before she learned Louisa's true motive. For the moment, she would continue to appear before Tyrone as Fiona. …Meanwhile, Tyrone was already on the bed, preparing to sleep. Suddenly, someone knocked on his door. He frowned. Who would come looking for him at this hour? Could it be Nia? Tyrone got out of bed and went to open the door. "Your father wants to see you, Tyrone," Karl said. Karl's face was pale with a hint of dejection. Tyrone saw his expression, and his heart skipped a beat. "Okay."Tyrone walked briskly to Ambrose's room. Ambrose was sitting on his bed with rosy cheeks. He didn't look as sickly as he was before. Tyrone's h

    The blood started to flow in his legs again. Tyrone quickly stood up and went to open the door. "Tyrone, your father has passed," Karl said with a sorrowful expression.Tyrone had guessed it but was still stunned when he heard that. After a while, he said hoarsely, "Have my brothers and sisters been notified?"Karl nodded. "Yes.""Alright." He nodded and walked to Ambrose's room.There were already quite a few people in his room. They were all making preparations for his funeral. There was only one person who was crying—Nia. Her voice was heart-wrenching. It wasn't like she hadn't seen anyone die before, but those were just neighbors in the village she lived in. She wasn't really close with them. This time, it was the uncle who had doted on her since she was a child. She crouched by the bed as tears streamed down her face. There were a lot of people tidying things up in the room. All of them thought Nia was insincere. They didn't think she was that sad. In their eyes, she

    Tyrone talked with Fiona about work for over an hour. "Thanks for the help. If you have any issues, you can go straight to Clifford for help."Ysabella nodded. "Understood, Mr. Hendrick."After a slight pause, Ysabella asked, "How are you doing?" "Don't worry, I'm fine. You should get some rest. I'll be hanging up.""Okay."Tyrone went to his bed and lay down after he hung up. There was an unmistakable sign of fatigue on his face. There was a hard battle waiting for him tomorrow. …The following day, Tyrone felt more refreshed after he woke up. He wouldn't have fallen asleep if not for the fact that he didn't get a wink of sleep the night before. After all, it was a very tense period for the Hendricks. A victor would be chosen among them. Tyrone freshened up and walked out the door to go to Nia's room. The door wasn't closed properly. He knocked a couple of times. There was no response, but the door slowly opened.

    "I could get those companies you acquired back for you. We can partner up," Clifford said."For what?"Clifford narrowed his eyes and said, "We'll work together, and I'll help you become the head of the Hendrick family."Tyrone was stunned by his words. Then, he burst out laughing. "Even now, you're joking with me. Do you think I'd believe you?""I'm not lying, nor am I joking."Tyrone's expression froze. "Let me tell you straight up. I won't fall for you. I'm straight, and I only have eyes for my wife.""Think carefully. Refusing my help means I'll become your enemy. If that happens, you'll have to face off against the Hendrick and Guthrie families," Clifford said coldly. "So what? I'm not desperate enough to sell my body."Tyrone's lips curved into a cold and distant smile. "Then, you'll have to leave the company. None of the companies owned by the Hendrick family will welcome you. You'll be the weakest one of them. "Since your family's successor battle is a life or deat

After leaving the office, Ysabella returned to her apartment and removed all her disguises, including the voice changer in her throat. She had a hard time removing the voice changer. After everything had been removed, she felt a little emotional looking at her face in the mirror. It had been a long time since she saw her real face. Ysabella washed her face and freshened up before she exited her apartment to go to Tyrone's. Before that, she took out her phone and called Tyrone."Where are you?" Ysabella asked when he picked up. She didn't address him as "Mr. Hendrick"."I'm at home," Tyrone said in a deep tone laced with surprise. "I have something to tell you." Ysabella hung up after she said that. She drove toward

    "I …" Ysabella wanted to explain further.Tyrone cut her off and stared at her expressionlessly. "I don't care what your goal is but don't ever try to hurt my wife. Or else, I'll come at you with everything I have."Suddenly, Tyrone started to exude terrifying pressure. Ysabella was stunned. Looking at Tyrone's distrustful gaze, she finally understood what Louisa's goal was. She wanted her, the real Ysabella, to be branded an imposter. So, the imposter would be able to replace her. The fake Ysabella was none other than the real Fiona. She was sent to Qoria for plastic surgery by Louisa. The surgery was very successful. And with the help of some top-of-the-line medication, her face was almost exactly like Ysabella's. Then, she underwent months of imitation training and self-hypnotism. Fiona was able to convince herself that she was indeed the real Ysabella. That was why she was able to speak so confidently and why she had Ysabella's cold demeanor. Even Ysabella had to admi

    Meanwhile, Ysabella was still fuming after she exited the villa and entered her car. Tyrone actually failed to recognize her. He didn't even give her a chance to explain herself. She didn't know what she was feeling, but she finally understood how bad it felt to be distrusted. She sighed deeply as she thought about that. She was finally in Tyrone's shoes for once. Since she failed to return to Tyrone's side, she had to make further plans on how to proceed. Ysabella started her car and slowly drove away. She didn't notice a pair of eyes staring at her from a dark corner of the villa. …Ysabella arrived at her apartment. Before she opened the door, she felt something was off. The white powder that was on the doorknob was gone. She left in a hurry this morning. Some mineral powder from her bag spilled out. She cleaned up the powder on the floor, but some was left on the doorknob. Before she went to see Tyrone, she noticed some powder on the inner part of the doorknob. It wa

    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.

    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.

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.

    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.

    "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.

    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
