He quickly walked to Stephen without looking at Yvonne. "Sir, do you know what Ms. Miller looks like?"

Julian didn't think Yvonne was ugly, but she looked rather scary. Yet Stephen seemed calm. "I know. There's an X-shaped scar on her left cheek."

"Y-You knew?" Julian asked in shock. "Still, you—"

"I married her, didn't I?"

Julian was speechless. Had Mr. Anderson also lost his mind in addition to his sight? He turned to Yvonne and asked, "What dirty tricks did you use to force Mr. Anderson into this?"

"Julian," Stephen said sharply. "It's been a while since you started working for me. Has that made you forget your place?"

"I—" Having spent years working for Stephen, Julian was familiar with his temper. Stephen detested hearing other people's opinions, especially regarding decisions he'd already made. However, Julian thought this situation was too ridiculous. Why did Mr. Anderson choose to marry a troll in the first place? Even so, he was aware that an assistant like him had no place to say anything. He stepped back and apologized. "I'm sorry, Mr. Anderson. I shouldn’t have crossed the line."

The picture was taken hastily after that. Once they left the area, Yvonne snatched the marriage certificate from Stephen and said, "You can head back first. I have something else to do."

Stephen's face became stormy at her actions. There were lots of women in Notherna City who wanted to marry him. Yvonne, however, left him right after they got their marriage certificate. Shouldn't they be celebrating instead? The more he thought about it, the more he felt like he was being used.

Julian could sense Stephen's bad mood but assumed that he was angry because he'd married an ugly woman. So, he suggested, "Mr. Anderson, if you have second thoughts, I could—"

"How's the company doing?" Stephen asked abruptly.

Julian was happy when he heard that and immediately forgot about Yvonne. "I'll report everything to you right after we get in the car." After all, Stephen hadn't asked about the company after he lost his sight.

Julian was anxious that Noah Anderson, Camille's eldest son, was slowly taking over the Anderson Group. He'd wanted to talk to Stephen about it, but the latter had never wanted to hear it. Now that Stephen seemed to be taking company matters to heart, Julian didn't have to worry that much anymore.

The Mr. Anderson he knew was finally back!

Monica was tidying her jewelry at the Miller Villa. She was still furious that she'd lost "Treasured Love." She complained, "How could you give 'Treasured Love' back to Yvonne? It's a unique necklace!"

"Enough. You've been nagging for days! How many times do you need to talk about it?" Thomas was annoyed as well. "Didn't you see how Mr. Anderson personally came to pick Yvonne up? How can anyone protest when he's obviously on her side?"

Monica spat, "Mr. Anderson only values her because he's blind. If he was really on her side, the Andersons wouldn't have asked us to keep their marriage a secret! They're only using her; she'll be kicked out of the family once she gives birth to an heir for them," she said, sneering. "I can't wait to see that happen."

Just then, a maid entered the room and announced, "Sir, Madam, Ms. Miller is here."

Monica's smirk widened. "I didn't think she would get kicked out this quickly."

    Thomas and Monica found Yvonne sitting on the couch when they went downstairs.Yvonne heard Monica's sharp, harsh voice before she even saw her. "It's Mrs. Anderson, indeed. I thought the maid was senseless enough to mistake her for the wrong person."Yvonne remained expressionless. She sneered inwardly, thinking that the couple would be the ones wailing later. She waited until they sat down and said, "I just came to notify you of one thing." She took out her marriage certificate and placed it on the table. "Stephen and I got our marriage certificate. We're legally married now."Monica was shocked and took the marriage certificate to check. Stephen's and Yvonne's signatures were on the certificate, and it was stamped with an official seal. Didn't the Anderson family say they'd only have a trial marriage? Hadn't they been unwilling to acknowledge Yvonne as their daughter-in-law? How the hell did they still manage to get their marriage registered?Thomas frowned and congratulated Y

    The air was thick with tension when Yvonne returned to Anderson Mansion.She looked around and saw Elizabeth sitting on the couch with a stern expression. A middle-aged man sat beside her, exuding power. Stephen was casually sitting on an armchair; his undignified manner looked out of place given the current atmosphere in the mansion.Yvonne was confused; she had no idea what was happening. She greeted them with a smile and asked, "Why is everyone in the living room?"Elizabeth banged the floor with her walking stick. "How dare you seduce Stephen and force him into marrying you?"Yvonne was stunned by the accusation. She couldn't understand why Elizabeth said she'd "seduced" Stephen.She looked inquiringly at Stephen, wanting to ask him what he'd said to Elizabeth. However, she quickly remembered that he was blind. Sighing, she decided to take the blame anyway. She looked at Elizabeth and said in a pitiful voice, "Grandma, if this is about the marriage certificate, Stephen's the o

    "You must keep your marriage a secret."Elizabeth added sternly, "The Anderson family cannot afford to bear the disgrace!"Before Stephen could object, he heard Yvonne agree determinedly, "No problem."Everyone was shocked by how quickly and decisively Yvonne agreed. She looked unbothered by Elizabeth's demand, even though it was an unfair request. Yvonne grinned. "I know my place and that I'm not good enough for Stephen. I'm so fortunate to be married to him. Why would I embarrass him?"Elizabeth snorted after listening to Yvonne's explanation. "Good. That's it. Anyway, Stephen's a grown man, and it's about time he got married and had a child. We can't stop him from exercising his freedom." No one dared to object any more after Elizabeth said this. Charles stomped his feet viciously to express his disapproval and left the room.After Charles left, Elizabeth turned to Yvonne. "Since you and Stephen are legally married, you should get pregnant soon. To be honest, unless you're g

    Stephen sneered. "We're a legally married couple. We have to handle our finances and debts together. I'm just worried that you'll drag me down with you.""Oh?" Yvonne raised her eyebrows. "Don't worry. I'll handle my business on my own." She took a step back. "I must take Miller Jewels back, even if it's a mess."After all, she'd returned to Northerna City to take back Miller Jewels. In addition, she didn't want her mother's designs to remain hidden from the public anymore; with their help, she would show the world Miller Jewels' true value.Stephen was surprised to find that Yvonne had such ambition; he'd just thought she was acting recklessly. "Brace yourself," Stephen said with a deep voice as he walked past her. "I won't help you even if you beg me later." He would be an absolute idiot to help such a fool."Also, we won't have children. You better give up on that soon." With that, Stephen went out of the room, leaving Yvonne staring at his retreating figure speechlessly.Who w

    That night, a maid knocked on Stephen's door.Yvonne thought the maid had brought dinner, but when she opened the door, she saw that the maid was empty-handed."Ms. Miller, Mrs. Anderson wanted both of you to have dinner with her downstairs."After he'd become blind, Stephen had only had his dinner in his room, and Yvonne had done the same after moving in. This was the first time Elizabeth invited them downstairs. The sudden invitation gave Yvonne a bad feeling, and she grumbled inwardly. Even so, she replied obediently, "Sure. I'll go down with Stephen in a moment."After the maid left, Yvonne turned and looked at Stephen. "Is Grandma trying to torment us again?"Stephen, however, remained expressionless. "You can reject her."Yvonne shook her head. "No way. I need to continue playing my role as an obedient granddaughter-in-law," she murmured thoughtfully. "If we have dinner downstairs, we'll probably have more to eat, I guess?"The corner of Stephen's mouth twitched. He didn't

    "Are you crazy?"Stunned by his question, Yvonne shoved Stephen's chest. "Don't be so full of yourself. I'm not interested in bearing your child."Stephen ignored her and warned through gritted teeth, "If you think you can do whatever you want just because you can help me recover my eyesight, you're terribly mistaken, Yvonne. I agreed to marry you and make you Mrs. Anderson, but don't expect anything else. And don't blame me for being ruthless if you plan to get pregnant just to get on my grandmother's good side." A thought suddenly occurred to Yvonne, and without thinking, she blurted out, "What if I get pregnant accidentally?""Get an abortion." His instant reply dismayed her, and she rolled her eyes. "I guess you are sick in the head."Then again, what did this have to do with her? She leaned back with a small smile. "Don't worry, I have no intention of causing trouble for myself."Stephen jeered at her casual tone. "Grandma made it clear that you'll have everything if you give he

    Noah's hand froze in midair, his expression apologetic. "I'm sorry. Did I startle you again?"He glanced at the cup of milk in Yvonne's hand. "You shouldn't drink cold milk at night; it isn't good for you. Let me warm it up for you.""It's fine." Yvonne nodded politely. "Thanks for the offer, but I'm used to drinking cold milk."Noah smiled softly. "It's not a good habit to have.""If you don't mind, I'm going back to my room. I don't want to leave Stephen alone for too long." Before she could move, Noah called out to her again. "We're a family now. Feel free to ask me for help anytime." He pushed a business card into Yvonne's pocket. "You have my number."Since it would be rude to refuse, Yvonne just nodded. "Sure. Thanks, Noah.""You're welcome. Go ahead then."Noah's eyes gradually lost their warmth as they followed Yvonne up the stairs, leaving only a cold stare.…Yvonne was still puzzled when she reached the room. Why did she feel so uncomfortable even though Noah had been so ki

    Within a week, news about the Millers' true heir taking over Miller Jewels spread like wildfire in the company and became the hottest workplace gossip."Didn't Ms. Miller go abroad for her studies? Considering her age, she hasn't graduated yet, right? Why is she in such a hurry to fight for the inheritance?""Haven't you heard that Ms. Miller is actually an ingrate?""Seeing how Miller Jewels is on the brink of collapse, I think she's a moron rather than an ingrate!"Just then, the subject of all the gossip, Yvonne, stepped out of a taxi in front of the company. She was wearing a mask and dressed in a plain tee and long pants, her fierceness on full display.As Yvonne confidently strode toward the entrance, a security guard stopped her. She tried to reason with him peacefully, but he refused to allow her inside. Just as she was considering forcing her way in, the guard moved aside respectfully, pulling Yvonne along with him.Yvonne turned to see a sharp-looking Thomas stepping out of a

    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. She sat on the couch and followed Otto's line of sight. Tiny dust particles were floating among the sunbeams. 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. "For example?""I mean, like the person that you trust turns out to be different from what you'd t

    The next morning, Yvonne opened her door to see Stephen standing outside. She was caught off guard."What is wrong with you this morning? Why didn't you knock…"While talking, Yvonne noticed that Stephen was still wearing the same clothes as the night before. She furrowed her brows and asked, "Don't tell me you didn't leave last night? 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 instinctively retreated until her back was up against the wall. She glared at him."What on earth is wrong with you? I've already said that I would've told you tomorrow morning—"A punch went past Yvonne and landed brutally on the wall.Yvonne was a little stunned. She looked into Stephen's eyes and furrowed her brows. "Stephen, I don't want to quarrel with you for no reason. "Mrs. Carrington Senior went to look for Otto today.

She was just about to get up when Cory pulled her back.He grabbed her by her chin and forced her to look at him. "What happened when you went out?""N-Nothing."Cory tightened his grip. Jane furrowed her brows in pain. "I-I… I saw Yvonne. She told me that she and Stephen got remarried.""What?" Cory relaxed his grip a little. "They got remarried?""Hmm.""So, what?" He had no intention of letting her go, and he looked at her sharply. "Does it bother you so much that Stephen got remarried?"Jane looked at Cory frantically. "Cory, what do you mean by that?""What do I mean? You know what I mean."Cory went in closer. His tone turned icy. "You used to pursue Stephen.

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.

    Calbert and Yvonne managed to track Otto's car to a bar, thanks to the information they'd gotten from his staff. Otto's car was right outside the bar.Calbert looked at the neon sign and furrowed his brows. "Why is Otto here? Did what Mrs. Carrington Senior said really hit him so badly that he has to drown himself in alcohol?"Yvonne said nothing and headed directly inside the bar."Wait up for me!" Calbert went after her. He subconsciously protected her from all the drunk patrons.The lighting in the bar was dim. Many of the patrons were drunk and having fun.Yvonne and Calbert walked around the booth area, but Otto was nowhere to be found. They pulled a server over to ask if there was a patron by the name of Otto Carrington who had reserved a private room.Coincidentally, the server had just taken two bottles of wine to Otto's room. So, he led them to the private room.Calbert tipped the server before opening the door and entering. The entire room reeked of alcohol.He looked

    After Agatha left, Otto stood in the same spot without moving.A long time later, Zac entered the office. He looked at Otto's back and asked quietly, "Mr. Carrington, will you still see the client?""No." Otto sounded heartbroken.Zac didn't dare ask further questions. He gently closed the door and reminded the secretary that no one was to disturb Otto.In the office, Otto was alone. He slowly walked over to the couch and slumped into it. His mind was in a mess."Alexander was the one who planned the kidnapping back then."Agatha's words rang in his mind for a long time.Alexander's young face appeared in Otto's mind, smiling at him affectionately."Otto! Amazing! Yes! Just like that!""You're amazing at badminton! You're going to make the country proud! I'm going to be so proud of you!""Otto, my son!"Memories of his interactions with Alexander flashed across his mind at that moment.Otto couldn't imagine that such a loving father would do such an absurd thing.
