Ysabella tossed and turned. She couldn't fall asleep. Something was gnawing at her mind.

"Honey, you grew up with Joe?" Tyrone asked when he noticed Ysabella was still awake. Clearly, he wasn't the only restless one.

"Yes, he's clingy. But I don't like him." For some reason, Ysabella thought she needed to clear things up.

"But he seems like a nice guy. He's polite and rich. Was he very popular?"

Ysabella was piqued. She propped herself up and looked at the floor where Tyrone should be lying. But it was too dark.

Was Tyrone being jealous?

Happy to get a tiny bit of reaction, Ysabella answered, "Hmmm ... How should I put it? Everyone was fond of him, including the adults and the kids. He threw me birthday parties for 11 years consecutively, from my 7th to my 18th birthday. He gave me tons of gifts, like the doll next to the television. He's sweet but at times, mischievous."

Ysabella blabbered on and on. She wanted to mention Joe's shortcomings, but it was hard to find o

    A condescending look appeared on Joe's face.When Tyrone refused to shake his hand yesterday, Joe thought that Tyrone was probably awestruck by his Lamborghini. But he was wrong. Tyrone was simply an idiot.Who in their right mind would choose Volkswagen over Lamborghini?Tyrone was trying to make Ysabella look bad in front of her colleagues.Ysabella regained her senses and withdrew her hands. She almost betrayed Tyrone."Sorry, Joe. I can't accept this expensive gift of yours."As Ysabella left the scene, she finally knew why she felt something was off. How did Tyrone find this Volkswagen?Not one to meddle in her boss's affair, Gina dispersed the crowd and went home.Ysabella scuffled past Joe and confronted Tyrone. "Tyrone, did you borrow the Volkswagen?""Hehe. Mr. Rivers said I did well in my job, so he gave it to me."Volkswagen was a cheap car, so Ysabella shouldn't be suspicious.Ysabella looked at Tyrone. Her eyebrows furrowed. Was the position of a security guard

    "A thousand?" probed Belinda. She would flaunt necklaces of that value around. Joe shook and raised five fingers. Belinda gasped. "Five thousand dollars?" If one accessory costs five thousand dollars, imagine the entire attire! Joe shook his head again. "500 thousand dollars." Yvan shrieked. "Did you rob a bank for that?" 500 thousand dollars for a necklace! What in the world? When Joe returned, he gave Belinda a credit card that contained one million dollars. Now, he gave Ysabella a necklace worth 500 thousand dollars. Maybe Yvan could get Luna the mansion she dreamed of. Wait ... When Yvan was that rich, he could drop Luna for someone hotter, of course. "Yvan, this is a limited edition Tiffany and Co. necklace. You can't find it anywhere." In other words, this necklace was so exclusive that most people wouldn't even have the chance to look at it. Belinda was so excited. "Joe, you bought this for Ysabella?" "Yes. All of you took good care of me when I was youn

    Tyrone answered Yvan's mockery with a smile. There was no point in rebuking anyway. Outsiders like them would never know the true value of Heart of the Sea. And besides, they already viewed him as a villain. "I'm talking to you!" Yvan shoved Tyrone, but thanks to Tyrone's martial arts training, he remained unmoved. Ysabella sighed. Her husband was as unresponsive as ever. "The emcee from Auspice Jewelry Mall gave Tyrone the present. Yasmine was there too." Yvan was shocked. Luna had pestered Yvan to visit the mall many times. He knew the place well and was sure that the first floor was reserved for cheap, ordinary jewelry. The emcee of the mall, however, did not work on the first floor. He mainly hosted events on the third floor, which sold expensive jewelry far beyond anyone's affordability. Only someone rich like Joe could buy something on the third floor. "Tyrone, the emcee of Auspice Jewelry Mall works on the third floor. Do you know him?" Yvan gave in to his curio

    Well, that wasn't the response Joe was expecting. To humiliate Tyrone, Joe put his phone on speaker. It seemed like his plan had backfired. Yannick, who wished to stay away from the whole debacle, put down his newspaper and listened in. Belinda and Yvan were baffled by Laurent's refusal. How dared he turn down someone powerful like Joe? And worse, why would Laurent side with a loser like Tyrone? Flustered, Joe cleared his throat and confronted Laurent again. "Mr. Laurent, think carefully now. If things go well, I might invest more than three million dollars." Laurent knew what was at stake, but he couldn't comply. "Sorry, Mr. Joe. Even if you're investing 30 million dollars, my mind will not be swayed." "I will need to reconsider the whole thing then, Mr. Laurent." "Auspice Jewelry Mall will be happy to have you as our investor, Mr. Joe. But if that comes with an unreasonable demand, I'm afraid things will not work out between us. I still have things to do, Mr. Joe.

    "Sorry to interrupt, but I need to take this call." Emerson pointed at his phone."Sure."Emerson then left Joe alone in the office and took the call outside.Meanwhile, Joe thought that Emerson was being way too courteous. This was Emerson's office. Emerson didn't need to excuse himself to take a call.And Emerson's soft-spoken attitude also reminded Joe of Tyrone. One was a successful businessman, while the other was ... a piece of trash.Regardless, Joe's mind was set on acquiring Sky High. He couldn't care less about Tergot Tech.Just imagine all the things he could do once Ysabella became his secretary. Haha!Outside, Emerson went to a quiet room and called Tyrone."Emerson! Any news about Teddy?" asked Tyrone straight away. He didn't come to the office today because he had to see Laurent first.Fearing that Joe would confront Laurent, Tyrone figured he should buy Laurent's silence.And it cost only 5 million dollars. Laurent was all too happy to receive the sum."Ty, y

    For the next few days, Joe didn't come to bother Ysabella.No picking her up from work. No sudden visit. Nothing.Ysabella was enjoying the peace, though she still ignored Tyrone most of the time."Stop picking me up from work with your rundown Volkswagen. It's embarrassing." She went home with Tyrone a few days ago because Joe was pestering her. Now that Joe was gone, Ysabella wanted to keep her distance from Tyrone.Tyrone sucked it up and left his car by the roadside. He then walked home with Ysabella.And at dinner, Belinda finally let it rip. "Tyrone, what have you done? Joe stopped talking to us. Why? Why would you ruin our bright financial prospects?"Belinda was so pissed that she no longer felt hungry.She called Joe many times, but Joe turned her down by saying that he was busy. What could possibly be more important than Ysabella?He gave them money, a car, and an expensive necklace. Everything screamed "Let's get married" and then it was nothing?"Mom, it's not Ty

    Only Tyrone and Ysabella remained in the living room. Tyrone didn't punch Belinda in the face because Belinda was his mother-in-law. Otherwise, he would have definitely done that. Either way, Tyrone managed to calm down. He was glad that Ysabella's slap brought him back to his senses. If he revealed his true identity, Belinda would be happy, but Ysabella would grow resentful. That's because she had suffered so much during the past three years. Now wasn't the good time for the ultimate revelation. On the other hand, Ysabella was also deep in her thoughts. She didn't know why she slapped Tyrone just now. Was it because she was afraid of a divorce? No, it couldn't be. She had already long accepted the fact that they were not meant for each other. At night, both of them couldn't fall asleep. "Tyrone, you agreed to my mother's deal. Does that mean you are ready to get a divorce?" "Huh?" Tyrone turned to look at Ysabella. "Otherwise, why did you agree to my mothe

    Emerson's secretary knocked on the door after five minutes. "Come in!" said Emerson without lifting his head. He was busy cleaning the desk. Joe was wearing his friendly demeanor when he walked in. But when he noticed the leftover breakfast on Emerson's desk, as well as Tyrone, his expression darkened. "Mr. Joe, we meet again," exclaimed Tyrone. Emerson finally realized that he should be meeting with Joe now. "Mr. Rivers, why is he here?" "Tyrone? He's my childhood friend. We were having breakfast together. Take a seat," answered Emerson. Joe was panicking. His plan was to use Emerson to get rid of Tyrone. Since Tyrone was Emerson's childhood friend, things would be complicated for Joe. "I see. Please proceed. I'll visit you another day." "No, stay, stay. He knows nothing about this company. Pretend he isn't here." Emerson got into his character now. He lightly shoved Tyrone. "Make way for Mr. Joe now." Seeing how Emerson kicked Tyrone around like a ball, Joe felt

    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.

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.

    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
