After they'd slipped away to the engagement party, Rachel's attention had been diverted from her breakup. The whole afternoon, they stayed at the coffee shop, chatting about rumors and gossip that Rachel had collected recently. As Rachel's incessant chatter filled the air, Yvonne enjoyed leisurely time for the first time in a long while.At that moment, she almost forgot that she was a runaway.It wasn't until Julian appeared in front of them and nodded respectfully at Yvonne that she remembered her situation. "Madam, you've been out for a long time now. Mr. Anderson would be worried.""Madam?" Rachel grabbed Yvonne's arm in shock. "Have you already married Mr. Anderson?"Rolling her eyes at Julian, Yvonne explained to Rachel, "Mr. Anderson and I have a good relationship. We often refer to each other as husband and wife at home, so his subordinates address me as 'Madam'."After listening to her explanation, Rachel's face was full of admiration. "You two lovebirds are so sweet!
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 117 Brought Humiliation on Himself
His scorching breath brushed against Yvonne's neck as he planted kisses on her skin. Like a patient hunter, Stephen slowly devoured her, inch by inch. Yvonne opened her eyes momentarily and met Stephen's gaze. Her breath hitched in her throat inexplicably. Usually, this man was as cold as ice. His eyes would only become warm and restrained when he was overcome with emotion, entrancing her with his allure and sensuality. In a daze, Yvonne thought that Stephen was definitely her arch nemesis. She was completely at his mercy, at least in moments like this. …The next day, Yvonne went downstairs to have breakfast. Rachel kept looking over at her throughout the meal.Yvonne spoke up: "Why do you keep looking at me? Am I that attractive?" Rachel pulled her chair closer and said earnestly, "Mr. Anderson has just recovered from his illness; you should take it easy on him."Yvonne was puzzled by her words. The next second, she remembered seeing several hickeys on her neck
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 118 She'd Long Wanted to Meet Him
Yvonne rushed all the way back to the villa. As she entered the gates, she bumped into Camille, who'd just been leaving with tears in her eyes. A question mark popped up in Yvonne's mind. Was Camille the woman Rachel had mentioned?At that moment, Charles emerged from behind Yvonne and walked briskly towards Camille. "Didn't I tell you not to wander around?"Camille shook her head helplessly, unable to speak, as tears streamed down her face. Concerned, Yvonne asked Charles in a low voice, "What happened to her?""Yvonne," Stephen's commanding voice rang out, "come over here.""Stephen, you're going overboard with your behavior!" Charles turned around and glared sternly at Stephen. "Camille is still ill. Can't you treat her kindly? Are you going to push her to the brink of death?""Am I supposed to greet a woman who attempted to poison me with a smile? You overestimate my tolerance," Stephen threatened coldly. "If you bother me again, she won't be able to leave this place on he
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 119 She Could Knock Out Ten Guys in One Punch
Yvonne accompanied Rachel and waited at the entrance of the villa for Dexter to arrive. After ten minutes, a Mercedes-Benz approached the gates slowly and stopped in front of them. The car window rolled down, revealing a young, handsome face behind the wheel. Dexter had short, blond hair that accentuated his fair skin, glowing with radiance in the sunlight. Whenever he smiled, his eyes disappeared. Dexter's vibe was that of a golden retriever, pure and innocent. Regardless of his personality, his handsome appearance was enough to charm numerous girls who would fall for his princely looks. However, he wasn't Yvonne's type. He appeared too feeble and weak for her liking. She could knock out ten guys like him with one punch.Dexter stared at the villa with admiration. "Rachel, did you stay here? When did you make such wealthy friends?" When he'd driven up from the foot of the mountain, he'd looked up the location of Oceania Villa. He'd discovered it was located in an upscale ar

"Yes, it's true. The higher management of the company showed much favor to Katie. They must have wanted to enhance her resume by entrusting such a big project to her." "In that case, Ms. Jones has a bright future ahead in her career.""I heard that the reason behind Ms. Jones' return this time is to train her to be the regional CEO's successor!"

Although it was normal for an adult to have desire, Yvonne found it weird when she thought about it. On some level, she was dependent on another body, and that was a dangerous sign.She patted her cheeks, forcing the unwanted thoughts out of her mind. Then she tucked herself in and tried to sleep.Half an hour later, she opened her eyes. She couldn't sleep one bit! She looked over at the invitation on her nightstand, where she'd left it when she'd returned home. Katie's welcome-home party. Hehe! Yvonne sneered. They had both returned to Northerna City, but the way they were treated was poles apart.The moment she'd reached home, she'd been sent to the Anderson family to marry a blind guy, whereas Katie was getting a grand welcome home party.

It was an ironic sight.She was just about to take a step forward when someone hit her back hard with a stick, almost making her fall over. She turned around to see a hand raising a can in mid-air.The hand belonged to Thomas' father, Joseph Jones.Yvonne grabbed the cane and looked at him icily. "What are you doing?"Joseph glared at Yvonne, so furious that he was trembling. "You stupid bitch! How dare you show yourself in front of me? How dare you send your uncle to prison? Why do I have such a ruthless grandchild? Pfft!"Joseph had grown up in the countryside, so he had a rough personality. He'd been so furious when he laid eyes on Yvonne that he wanted to teach her a lesson, completely disregarding where

Chapter 1676 His World Falling Apart
Yvonne stood by the door of the bedroom and looked at Otto, who was looking out of the window in a daze on the bed.The sun shone on his face. He looked quite hungover and had a sickly pale face.Yvonne hesitated for a while before saying gently, "Mrs. Jenner called me last night. She's worried about you."Otto didn't respond.Yvonne went in closer and added, "She said that you called her and asked about your father. She found it strange."Mr. Carrington, why did you suddenly think about your father? Did Mrs. Carrington Senior bring him up yesterday?"All Yvonne got was silence.Luckily, she was patient.

Yvonne also fell into a daze as she watched them float about.Suddenly, Otto asked, "Have you ever felt like your world was falling apart?""Hmm?" Yvonne was confused.

Have you been standing outside this door all this while?""Hmm." Stephen looked at Yvonne intently. "I thought you would've figured it out quickly."Yvonne was speechless, but she thought to herself that she'd slept like a baby the night before.She smiled at him. "Figure what out?" She noticed Stephen frowning as though he were on the brink of losing his temper.She quickly added, "I-I mean, you have to give me a hint, right? I've thought about it the entire night, but I still don't understand. My brain isn't functioning well."Stephen asked suspiciously, "You've been thinking about it the entire night?""Yes, which is why I didn't look for yo

"If I hadn't come to find you tonight, you probably wouldn't tell me anything about what happened tonight, would you?" Stephen asked in retort.It wasn't a big deal, as long as they returned safely. Yvonne wondered why she needed to report this to him.But she still smiled. "It's late. How could I disrupt your rest? It would've been the same if I told you about it tomorrow morning, right?"Stephen sniggered. "Yvonne, you still don't know where you've gone wrong."He suddenly went in closer to her.

Yvonne turned around to see Jane smiling at her ambiguously. She furrowed her brows. How were they always bumping into each other?Jane crossed her hands in front of her chest and leaned against the wall. She swept her gaze at Calbert and Otto. "Two guys and one woman. You sure know how to have fun!"Calbert instantly snapped, "What the hell are you talking about?""Why are you being so fierce? Did I hit the nail on the head?" Jane snickered. "Two guys and a woman came out of a private room in the middle of the night. Anyone would come to the same conclusion. We're all adults.
