The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 180 A Tough Battle
Slowly, Ariel said, "I've promised Madam Elizabeth that I would drop by the suburban manor during Thanksgiving and spend some time with Old Mr. Anderson."Since Stephen was being so protective of Yvonne, Ariel was determined to pay her a visit and see what kind of person she was."Really?"Excitedly, Katie held Ariel's hand and said, "That's great, Ariel! Everyone knows that you're way more qualified to be Stephen's wife, you …"Ariel shook her head and said, "Don't say that. I still don't know what's going to happen for sure.""In any case, it's wonderful that you're willing to take that step!"Katie had forgotten whatever bad memories she'd had because of Yvonne. She was too busy being happy for Ariel.As long as Ariel could reclaim her rightful place by Stephen's side, she'd definitely make Yvonne pay for what she'd done.… Yvonne felt a shiver run down her spine the moment that she walked out of Cougar Coffees.She calculated that it would be two weeks before Thanksgivin
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 181 You Don't Control Me
"Everything went well. You can wake the patient after half an hour. The next appointment for his treatment will be after Thanksgiving."Once he finished reading the text message, Curtis turned back and informed Camille about it.When Camille heard it, she sank to her knees, covering her face with her hands as she sobbed with joy. Then she thanked Curtis profusely.At last, fate was showing her some mercy! There was finally some hope for her dear son.Camille was determined to thank Ms. Y in person when Conan recovered fully.… As Yvonne drove back to Miller Jewels, she gave Old Jim a call to update him on how the treatment had gone today.Halfway through their call, she received an incoming call.Yvonne thought that something had happened at the company when she saw that her assistant was calling, so she quickly ended the call with Old Jim.Her assistant's anxious voice came through as soon as Yvonne answered the call."Ms. Miller! Mr. Anderson's assistant is in your office!
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 182 How Very Strange!
However, Yvonne was stunned to hear Stephen's response."Okay." It was just a word—one that wasn't filled with malice.Casually, Stephen continued, "Right, I'm going to drop by Grandfather's manor for Thanksgiving. Do you want to come along?"His question snapped Yvonne out of her trance. She asked, "Is everyone from your family going too?""Yes.""Then how could I possibly refuse?" Yvonne was helpless because she knew that if she didn't show up, her image as a good wife would be ruined. Besides, she had to go for Phillip's sake.It became quiet, and Yvonne pretended to be asleep as she leaned her head against the window.She was grateful that Stephen didn't ask her any questions; otherwise, she wouldn't be able to escape from his scrutiny.Yvonne wasn't sure just how many more times she was going to be tested like this. Just the thought of it gave her a headache.She cracked an eye open to steal a glance at Stephen, thinking that he seemed to have changed recently. Before, he
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 183 Was There a Need for Nicknames?
Ariel stared at Stephen, her eyes full of affection, and said, "It's been a while, Stephie."Yvonne frowned, thinking, "Stephie? Was there a need for her to call him by such an affectionate nickname?"Stephen only grunted in response before walking closer with Yvonne in tow. He introduced her to Ariel, saying, "This is Yvonne, my wife."Yvonne was taken aback for a moment. She hadn't expected Stephen to introduce her to his ex so nonchalantly.Before she could react, Ariel extended her hand toward her. "It's nice to meet you, Yvonne. I've heard many things about you.""Likewise, Ariel. It's great to finally see you in person." Yvonne shook Ariel's hand, catching a glimpse of sadness in her eyes. It was obvious that Ariel still loved Stephen dearly.Yvonne felt out of place, like a villain who was here to snatch the hero's heart away from the heroine. This inexplicable feeling stuck with her even after she entered the manor.As a result, Yvonne felt a little upset whenever she lo
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 184 Did Stephen Tell You?
No one dared to say anything.It was just their first meal together, but the tension was so thick that one could cut it with a knife. Neither Phillip nor Elizabeth agreed to see eye-to-eye with each other.Elizabeth set her fork and spoon down and left the dining room early with Ariel in tow.As for Phillip, he asked Yvonne to join him in his study later.It was Thanksgiving tomorrow, and the moon hung brightly in the night sky.Phillip was in great spirits, so he invited Yvonne for a drink under the moonlight on the balcony.He'd brewed his own alcohol—moonshine—and Yvonne could taste the perfect balance of sourness and sweetness in it.Before she knew it, she'd already downed several cups of moonshine. She was about to pour herself another cup when Phillip stopped her."If you leave my room drunk, Stephen's going to be very cross with me." Phillip looked at her with a smile and asked, "Were you upset about what happened today?"Yvonne could tell that he'd invited her over fo
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 185 What Would Happen to Her in the Future?
Yvonne may not have known much about love, but she knew how to deal with people. A weak woman like Ariel would play the victim card just so she'd get her way. That was the easiest sort of person to deal with.Yvonne felt no need to continue the conversation, so she moved to sidestep Ariel.Ariel was in a hurry, so she blurted out the first thing that popped into her head: "Haven't you given it any thought? With that appearance of yours, you're going to embarrass him just by being by his side."Yvonne paused and "tsked" at her. Ariel was a wealthy snob through and through. She knew she couldn't win through an intellectual conversation, so of course she resorted to taking a dig at Yvonne's appearance.Yvonne turned around and replied, "Oh, I'm so sorry! But Stephen doesn't mind it. Are you questioning his taste and judgment? Why don't you bring it up with him?""You—" Ariel had never met anyone as ruthless as Yvonne. She was at a complete loss for words. Ariel kept silent, trying to
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 186 How Could You Be So Cruel?
Early the next morning, Stephen left the room while Yvonne was still sound asleep, hugging the blanket in her arms.He walked out of the room and instructed the maids not to disturb her slumber. Then he asked one of them to call Ariel to a guest room.A short while later, Ariel knocked on the door to the room. Her face was brightly lit up in joy, with the corners of her eyes crinkling as she smiled."Come in."She quickly opened the door and strolled over to Stephen, asking, "Stephen, why did you ask for me?""Yvonne told me that you spoke to her last night." Not wanting to waste time with her, Stephen got straight to the point. "I'd always thought you were a sensible person, Ms. Clarke, so I'd never wanted to do this. But it seems like I need to make some things clear."Just the way he called her "Ms. Clarke" was enough to wound Ariel's heart. She looked at Stephen in disbelief and asked, "Must we be so distant with each other? I mean, we used to—""The past is behind us." St
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 187 Yvonne Had It Coming for Her
"Stephen was looking for you earlier today? Why didn't you tell me?" Elizabeth said as she took Ariel's hand in hers."I—" She hesitated, glancing at Yvonne briefly. Her little glance made everyone think that something had happened between Ariel and Stephen and that she couldn't talk about it in front of Yvonne.Elizabeth smiled and said, "Oh, I just knew that Stephen was always fond of you! I mean, both of you were together for such a long time, so how could he just cut things off with you?""But of course! What sort of relationship can be stronger than that of childhood sweethearts?" Hazel continued, staring at Yvonne from the corner of her eyes to see how she would react.Yvonne lowered her eyes and took a sip of her juice, concealing her sneer. Stephen had told her that yesterday was the first time he'd seen Ariel after she'd returned from overseas. Yet here he was, seeking her out so eagerly the first thing in the morning.How untrustworthy! He said one thing and did anothe

Chapter 1678 You Were Their Whole Life
A light breeze blew by in the courtyard. Agatha slowly recounted the past.Back then, Daniel and his wife, Katherine, had just had Mark. The entire Carrington family had been celebrating.They had doted on Mark and taken him wherever they went.That day, they had headed out. Before they'd known it, Mark had been taken away.Just when Daniel and Katherine had been on the brink of losing it, they had received a call from the kidnapper to bring the ransom to a specific spot.They had gotten the money and driven there without any hesitation. No one had thought that they would ever return after that. Even Mark had disappeared.When Agatha finished recounting this, her cup of tea had already cooled.She wiped her tears away. She said through a catch in her throat, "Katherine was hugging the bag of money tightly until the moment she passed away, as though she were hugging you."Mark furrowed his brows. Now that he'd heard the truth about Daniel and Katherine, he should have felt pain

Chapter 1677 He Won't Take it to Heart
As Yvonne left the room, she could tell that Stephen's mood was much better.She looked at him. "Are you thinking of something nice?""No." Stephen looked at Yvonne with a rare twinkle in his eyes."Let me take you to breakfast." Before Yvonne could respond, he took her hand and led her to the elevator.Thinking about how he'd stood outside her room the entire night, Yvonne decided to let him hold her hand.Then, her thoughts drifted to Otto. Somehow, she had a bad feeling.…At the same time, Mark was in the courtyard of Carrington Mansion. He sat next to Agatha and poured some tea for her.He handed her a cup of hot tea. "Great-Grandma, try this."When he noticed that Agatha had no reaction, he called out to her once more. "Great-Grandma?""Huh?" Agatha came to her senses. She looked at Mark in confusion. "What is it?""You've been distracted since yesterday. Are you thinking of something?" Mark asked.Agatha shook her head. "Nothing." Then, she picked up her teacup and

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

Chapter 1675 Let Otto Have Yvonne for a While
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

Chapter 1674 You Still Think There's No Problem
"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. Calbert couldn't reach him the entire day, so he

Chapter 1673 Do You Think I'm Blind
Jane returned to the private room, distracted.She sat down next to Cory. She looked at him as he reached his hand out to her in confusion.Cory furrowed his brows and asked unhappily, "Where's the wine?""Wine… Yes! Wine!" Jane came to her senses. 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. Now that you know he's gotten married, you're in this shitty mood

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. There's no need to pretend to be innocent.""You—" Calbert was about to go up to Jane, but Yvonne stopped him."Since Ms. Ford is here, I'm guessing so is Cory?" Yvonne smiled, yet her smile didn't reach her eyes. "If you cause a scene here and this bar gets raided, guess who'll be the ones walking out here alive?"Jane's expression turned ugly. "Are you threatening me?""It's just a kind reminder." Yvon

Chapter 1671 We Meet Again
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

Chapter 1670 I Won't Let That Old Hag Off the Hook
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.
