The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 239 He Never Loved Her
The washroom wasn't an optimal place for private conversations. Simone led Yvonne to a secluded balcony. Both women leaned against the banister while enjoying the light breeze.Yvonne handed Simone a bottle of water. Then she asked, "When did you find out about your pregnancy?""Last week." Simone took a sip of water while recalling the moment she'd confirmed her pregnancy. While she'd been alarmed, there had also been a trace of joy that she hadn't noticed back then.She'd dreamt of having a baby with the man she loved, after all.Simone had envisioned countless ways to break the news to Noah in her mind. At the same time, she'd also considered ways to ensure that she could give birth to her baby.However, the interactions with Noah that had transpired over the past few days made her snap out of her fantasies. Noah would never allow her to bring the baby into this world. He'd never loved her from the start."I'm really unlucky, aren't I?" A bitter smile appeared on Simone's fa

"He told me that I should cherish you. He even said that he wouldn't hesitate to teach me a lesson if I were to harm a hair on your head. How did you and Caleb get to know each other, hmm? He sounded like he was very close to you."Stephen softened his tone on purpose when he reached the final sentence. The danger in his tone was evident.Yvonne felt chills run up her spine. She swallowed nervously before squeezing out a smile at Stephen. "Maybe you don't know this, but Caleb is Rachel's older brother."Stephen looked slightly surprised. Indeed, he hadn't known about that.Caleb had founded Turner Tech by making it through difficulties with pure passion and perseverance as soon as he'd graduated from his university. After that, he'd made a name for the company in Northerna City thanks to his outstanding capabilities.Some time after that, Anderson Group had issued its tender document for a business contract as they wanted to start expanding in the technological field. Caleb had wo

According to Stephen's schedule, he was to fly back to his home on the same day once the convention was over.However, Yvonne was still concerned about Mrs. McKinnon's health, so Stephen decided to extend his stay by another week.Once Mrs. McKinnon was discharged from the ICU, Yvonne finally flew back to Northerna City with Stephen.Before she left, she received her cut of the mission's reward from Gwen. It was a total of 15 million dollars.The pay used to be split in a ratio of seven to three between Yvonne and Emerald Group. Now, it was a ratio of five to five. She could only chuckle darkly in response. Not only did the organization force her to take on a mission, but it also deducted her cut of the payment.Had the Group never considered the fact that Yvonne might quit if it continued exploiting her? Did the higher-ups seriously think of her as a pushover?The journey home was arduously long. Luckily, Stephen had arranged for them to fly back home on his private plane.Than

Once Monica left the study, she quickly called Katie. Then she started cursing Yvonne out.It took a long time before Katie managed to convince her mother to end the call. By the time she put down the phone, her brows were already knitted into a deep frown.When Ariel returned, she noticed the frustrated look on Katie's face. "What's wrong?""It's nothing. Something happened at home." Katie let out a sigh. "My mom is super proud, so she can't stand it when her friends start talking about Yvo—"She quickly stopped talking.Ariel just smiled at her friend. "It's fine. I don't mind hearing Yvonne's name. What's wrong? Is she involved in the news again?""Well—"Even if Katie didn't tell Ariel anything, the latter would still find out about the news sooner or later. She hesitated for a moment before telling her friend all about the trending topic that had gone viral online.Ariel listened to Katie's explanation silently. She was still lost in thought long after Katie had finished t

In the end, Yvonne still managed to complete the third treatment without any problems. She spent half an hour longer than she expected.Instead of leaving right away, Yvonne invited Curtis to a nearby café for a cup of coffee.By the time Curtis arrived, Yvonne was already slumping over the table so she could rest.He treaded carefully toward her subconsciously, not wanting to make too much noise. Then he took a seat at the table.Noticing how soundly she was sleeping, Curtis took off his jacket and draped it over her. His actions were so gentle that not even an ant would be startled by them.Just like that, a burly guy stayed by Yvonne's side as she slept.Yvonne finally woke up and rubbed her eyes blearily when someone turned on the lights in the café. She looked up to find Curtis glaring threateningly at the employee.The poor employee looked very helpless. He needed to keep the café running, after all. The sky had already darkened at this point; how could the café attract mo
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 244 Inviting Trouble to Their Doorstep
Stephen was the one driving the Maybach. An idea popped into his head as he drove past a flower shop, and he parked the car at the side of the road right away.Yvonne watched him get out of the car. Minutes later, he returned with a bouquet of champagne-yellow roses. He walked over to Yvonne's side of the car and passed the bouquet to her through the window "Think of this as my way of apologizing to you. I'd been too busy, and I couldn't spend much time with you."Yvonne accepted the bouquet graciously and hugged it to her chest. She decided to tease him on purpose. "Do you even know the name of these flowers? How could you buy me random flowers without knowing anything?""It means 'I love you, my precious lover,'" Stephen replied straight away.Yvonne was rendered speechless. She was stunned for a moment before finally finding her voice. "Did you pick them out on purpose?""Yup. I even asked the florist."After getting into the car, Stephen noticed the tinge of red coloring Yv
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 245 How Dare You Interfere
Meanwhile, Michael Grant was still waiting for Simone's return in the private room. The producer, who sat next to him, clinked glasses with him with a smile on his face."Simone's quite beautiful. It's just that she's a haughty woman, so you'll have to put her in her place, Mr. Grant.""It's normal for beautiful women to be temperamental, after all."Having downed a shot of vodka earlier, Michael narrowed his eyes slightly as lust started taking over his mind. "She'll settle down once I'm done with her in bed."The moment his words fell, the private room's door was kicked open. Yvonne took the lead as she walked into the room. Simone followed behind her meekly, whereas the men that Michael had dispatched earlier trailed behind the two.As for Stephen, he just stood at the doorway, leaning against the frame and gazing at the people inside the private room nonchalantly.He'd spent a chunk of his life strategizing and running a huge company. As a result, Stephen was, at his core, a
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 246 Stop Slandering Me
"Yvonne did a great job at hospitalizing Mr. Grant! Do you have any idea who Mr. Grant is? He's a famous director who's known for creating popular dramas! My company spent so much time and effort just to get in touch with him, only for our potential business deal to be ruined thanks to Yvonne!"Hazel continued ranting, "Mother, you have to judge this situation fairly! Was I ever mean to her? Why did she do this to me?"Hazel had already launched into a tirade at this point. Spittle started flying everywhere, with flecks almost landing on Elizabeth's face. "You need to help me out! At the very least, I want Yvonne to apologize to me!"Elizabeth quietly listened to Hazel complain, a frown forming on her wrinkled face. "I can't do anything about this."Hazel looked shocked. "What do you mean by that?""I visited Yvonne some time ago. Now that Stephen has her back, even I can't do anything to her." Elizabeth was still angry at Yvonne whenever she remembered how she had torn up the che

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. Calbert couldn't reach him the entire day, so he

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.

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

Otto's car was right outside the bar.Calbert looked at the neon sign and furrowed his brows. "Why is Otto here?
