Three days later, Yvonne slept in since it was a weekend. By the time she went downstairs, Stephen had already had his breakfast and was reading a financial newspaper.Tabitha and Alfie couldn't be happier since Stephen had recovered his sight; they even looked at Yvonne with extra tenderness in their eyes. Before this, they had respected her as Mrs. Anderson, but now they treated her as a lucky charm.Tabitha specifically waited for Yvonne to sit down before she went to prepare a special meal for her. The breakfast she made for Yvonne was even more lavish than Stephen's.Yvonne took a bite of her croissant and couldn't help but throw a flaunting glance at Stephen.Without lifting his gaze, Stephen said, "Come out with me tonight. You'll find out more when we get there." His last words shut down the question that had been about to leave Yvonne's mouth. She furrowed her brows, curious about his secretive behavior.Yvonne was in suspense for the rest of the day. In the evening, sh
Stephen remained silent. Yvonne stepped on Danny, and her eyes fixed on Stanley before quickly darting to the medication, signaling him to take the medication packet from the table.Stanley regained his senses and hurriedly snatched the medication packet. Then he handed it to Yvonne. Yvonne sniffed the powder and turned to look at Stephen, confirming, "This is aconite powder."Stephen nodded and instructed Stanley, "Have someone take them away."Soon, Stanley's men rushed into the room and tied Camille and Danny up."Stephen, you can't treat me like this!" Camille shouted, "Charles won't let you off if you dare to lay a finger on me!"Stanley was afraid that her shouts would annoy Stephen, so he nudged the man holding her and urged him to take Camille and Danny away quickly.After they left, the room went silent. Yvonne approached Stephen with the medication packet in hand. "We have all the proof we need. Why don't we just take them to the Anderson family?""We will need to wait
Conan was a teenager, about 15 years old. His features bore a striking resemblance to Stephen's. He had a slender figure and unnaturally pale skin. It was as if he'd been confined indoors for a long time.The young boy exuded a strong air of stubbornness as he stood as still as a log in front of Camille. He remained silent, staring fixedly at Elizabeth.As Yvonne observed the scene, she deduced that the Andersons must have kept the young boy hidden for so long because of his mental illness. She remembered how Camille had been desperately trying to hide someone in the Rolls-Royce Dawn when she and Stephen had moved out of the mansion. It had probably been Conan."Conan, you should leave now. This matter should be handled by adults; you shouldn't interfere," Charles kindly advised. However, the young boy paid no attention and continued to keep his arms spread wide.Tears streamed down Camille's face as she said, "Don't bring Conan into this. Let me bear all the blame …""It's good t
Elizabeth asked Stephen incredulously, "Is your grandfather telling the truth?" The Anderson family had received both good and bad news on the same day.When Elizabeth saw Stephen nod, she couldn't bear it. She put her hands over her chest, and tears of excitement welled up in her eyes. She murmured words of gratitude to God repeatedly.In contrast, William and his family weren't in such high spirits. They knew what this turn of events meant for them.After Stephen had become blind, Noah had temporarily taken over as president of Anderson Group, and their family had greatly benefited from it. Now that Stephen had recovered, they had to give up the benefits that had fallen into their laps. How could they be happy about it?"It's a great joy that Stephen's regained his eyesight!"Noah asked a maid to pour some wine. He raised his glass to toast Stephen, and he said, "Congratulations; Anderson Group has been waiting for you." Under the bright light, he looked picturesque, with a be
"If it hadn't been for you, Camille's plan would have succeeded."On the way to Anderson Mansion earlier, Yvonne had explained how she'd discovered the aconite powder in the medication. Since she had to keep her medical skills a secret, she made up a story claiming that she'd mistakenly consumed aconite as a child and had almost lost her life. Hence, she vividly remembered its smell and taste, which had inadvertently saved Stephen.Philip looked at Yvonne with warmth and said, "Thank you, Yvonne."Perhaps it was due to his gratitude toward Yvonne for saving Stephen's life, but Philip didn't find Yvonne's scar unsightly, no matter how he looked at her. He liked her very much.Initially, he'd believed that Elizabeth arranging a marriage for Stephen was absurd, but now he had to give her credit for a job well done."Stephen is my husband; it's only natural for me to save him. You don't have to thank me," Yvonne replied obediently.Seeing how Stephen showed no reaction, Philip couldn
Stephen got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom. From a distance, he saw the curtains of the floor-to-ceiling window fluttering in the wind. Yvonne was wearing a robe and leaning against the railing, revealing her fair legs.Although Stephen approached quietly, Yvonne still managed to notice him. She spoke into the phone, saying, "Okay, I got it. You should continue resting." Then she hastily ended the call.She turned around and smiled at Stephen. "Why did you wake up so early?""Who were you talking to on the phone?""Grandfather," said Yvonne as she shrugged her shoulders helplessly.Philip was used to waking up very early because he tended to sleep less, and he'd also had something on his mind today. However, Yvonne was sleep deprived; she'd only had a few hours of sleep. When she'd walked out of the bedroom, she hadn't even been able to keep her eyes open.She'd stood on the balcony to enjoy the breeze while answering Philip's call, and her mind had gradually become cle
It was the first time Stephen had stepped into Anderson Group in five years, and even the receptionists in the lobby almost didn't recognize him. Several female receptionists were shocked as they looked at Stephen and Julian, who took the president's elevator.Why was Mr. Anderson back? Wasn't he blind?Stephen proceeded to attend the Monday meeting with the board. The meeting room door swung open, drawing everyone's attention. Everyone was stunned when they saw Stephen, and they had a mixture of different expressions plastered on their faces.Noah clenched his hand on the table tightly before quickly releasing it as he plastered a smile on his face.He stood up and said, "Stephen, I thought you needed a few more days to rest. If I'd known you were coming today, I would have postponed the meeting."Stephen walked past Noah and sat at the head of the table. "It's not too late for me to join the meeting. You guys continue the discussion; I'll listen." With that, the atmosphere in th
Meanwhile, in Anderson Mansion, Camille could only stay quiet for one night in the attic. At the crack of dawn the next day, she banged on the door, wanting to see Charles.Elizabeth couldn’t take it anymore and berated Philip for causing this mess before screaming for someone to get Charles.The moment Charles got to the attic and opened the door, Camille flung herself at him. "Where is Conan? How is he?""He’s already been sent to the school. The teachers and the staff are looking after him. He’ll be fine."They called it a school, but it was actually a learning facility for people with special needs. In truth, it was more like an institute. They had come to take him during the weekend, when Conan just happened to be at home.Conan had already been unstable at the time. His emotions had spiraled out of control that day, and he'd gotten worse after being forcibly sent back to school. According to the teachers, he'd refused to eat or take his medication. He'd even spouted nonsense
