On the same night, a screenshot of a group chat conversation was leaked online. However, the internet was being closely monitored, and it was intercepted before any of the netizens could see the screenshot.Caleb looked at the information his subordinates had submitted and saw that the IP address was from the internal management of Johnson Talent Agency. Meanwhile, Curtis had also managed to get leads indicating that the rumor originated from there. All the clues were clear.Caleb showed the screenshot to Yvonne and said, "They're probably thinking of spreading the news through the fans' group chat. Things like this are pretty common in the entertainment industry. There aren't any photos, so they rely solely on making things up." When Yvonne saw the name of the group chat, she clicked her tongue. "So it's really Ariel." "When did she find out that I have a son? But it seems like she doesn't know Elvin's true identity yet. That's why she's doing whatever she can to spread the ne
"What?" Ariel was so shocked that she almost shot up from her seat.If Yvonne hadn't held her down, everyone's attention would have been on them by now. "If you insist on making a big deal out of it, I can't stop you," Yvonne said calmly. "I'm just concerned that Stephen will end up being criticized for abandoning his wife and son. All the heat will be directed at the Andersons. As the instigator, I doubt you'll be having a good time either. " "You ..." Ariel suddenly grabbed Yvonne's wrist and squeezed the words through gritted teeth. "Don't try to scare me. You aborted your child with Stephen a long time ago. How is it possible ..." "You can go and ask Stephen about it. He took my son to a paternity testing center not long ago." Ariel's face gradually turned pale. It had never occurred to her that Stephen was the father of Yvonne's son. She couldn't believe it!"Don't worry, Ms. Clarke. I'm not interested in Stephen or the Andersons, nor have I ever thought of using my child
Nadia had given Yvonne an invitation card at the beginning of the month. Yvonne had also heard from Rachel that Bernard and Judith had spent a lot of effort and money to pave the way for Timothy in the city. A lot of influential figures in Northerna City were supposedly attending the banquet this time. Rachel tried hard to persuade Yvonne to attend it with her and Andrea, Stanley's mother, saying that Andrea had been wanting to know her.Yvonne couldn't refuse the warm invitation. Hence, she got ready that night and waited for them to pick her up. Andrea started praising Yvonne nonstop from the moment she saw her. "I've always heard Rachel talking about you. Now that I'm seeing you in person, I realize that she's actually been quite modest in her praises for you." Yvonne smiled. "You're flattering me, Mrs. Smith. Rachel often mentions you to me too. She's lucky to have such a good mother-in-law like you." "It's our fortune that Rachel was willing to get married to Stanley. I jus
"Children keep the family together; they're the hope for the future!""Look at how spoiled women are nowadays. They're afraid of getting married and giving birth. When they reach our age, they will understand how good it is to have a child."Yvonne spared a glance at Judith and clearly saw the hint of cunning laced in her eyes. "Tsk, so she planned this," Yvonne muttered inwardly. "Regina, if you hadn't been held up by that bastard, you probably would've had kids going to school by now, right? Just like ours." "Exactly. What a pity. You wasted the best time of your life, Regina." Although the women appeared to sympathize with Regina and sounded like they felt sorry for her, their biting remarks were harsh. Regina couldn't help but look displeased. "Why are you in a hurry to teach people how to live their lives? Do you even understand the lessons taught by the elementary school teachers?" A casual voice came through. Everyone turned to look at Yvonne. One of the women coul
"Bitch, it's you! Don't think that I hadn't been able to recognize you just because it was dark that night!" Benjamin gripped Nadia's wrist tightly. "Let me tell you; I have keen eyesight! Come to the police station with me now! I want to sue you for intentional injury!" "What do you mean by 'intentional injury'? At most, I was just sorting out trash!" Nadia retorted and seized the moment to kick him in his private parts. Benjamin howled in pain. He instinctively let go of her hand and jumped to the back. "Bitch ... You're going to pay for this!"Nadia made a face at him and turned around to run away. However, she bumped into a group of wealthy women who'd come by to check on the situation. Regina stopped her. "Didn't I tell you to get some beverages? Why did you end up in a fight with someone?""Aunt Regina, he's a jerk! He took advantage of my friend at Euphoria Smith last time. I'd taught him a lesson, but he still doesn't seem to regret his actions! He even had the nerve to
The door was suddenly pushed open, startling everyone in the room.Stephen stepped into the room, as composed as ever. "Since we're resolving a conflict between the Andersons and the Dawsons, how can I not be around?"Noah straightened up and said faintly, "It's settled now. I don't think there's any need for you to get involved."Looking at Benjamin, who was still bowing, Stephen said, "Is this a show of sacrificing a family member for the sake of justice? I didn't expect you to become more and more unprincipled, Noah." Noah frowned. "What do you mean?""I mean exactly what I said." As soon as Stephen entered, he completely overshadowed Noah. He wasn't doing anything to conceal the aggressiveness he emanated. The atmosphere, which had been relatively harmonious until a moment ago, was now filled with tension. Yvonne was rendered speechless. She wondered if this banquet was going to end up as a place for the Andersons to confront each other. "Yvonne, I feel like these two m
As the car's window rolled down, Stephen's face came into view. He looked even frostier in the shadows. "Get in. I have something to ask you."Yvonne didn't move.With a frown, Stephen threatened her in a cold voice, "Either you get in yourself, or I'll come out and drag you in. Choose."Yvonne was rendered speechless. "He's still as unreasonable as before!" she thought. Sitting in the driver's seat, Stanley felt a tingling sensation traveling across his scalp. If he'd known something like this would happen, he wouldn't have told Stephen that Yvonne would be at the banquet with Rachel. Right now, Stanley could only hope that Yvonne wouldn't piss Stephen off, or else he'd be the one to suffer in the end. Thinking about this, Stanley sincerely invited Yvonne to get in the car. "Yvonne, let us drop you home. Weren't you going to hail a taxi anyway?"Out of consideration for Stanley, Yvonne reluctantly opened the door and got in. Thankfully, it was wide inside. She sat close to the
After being kicked out of the car, Yvonne smiled brightly and said to the people sitting inside, "If you want to buy the medicine again, I can refer you to someone, Mr. Anderson. They can help you get it." The next second, the Maybach sped away, almost causing Yvonne to lose her balance. She couldn't help but curse Stephen countless times in her heart for it. On the other hand, Stanley thought that Yvonne was the only person who dared to ruffle Stephen's feathers. Stanley remained silent the entire way, too afraid to utter a single word. He clenched the steering wheel tightly, and his palms began to sweat unconsciously.Just as he was about to let out a sigh of relief upon reaching the entrance of Oceania Villa, he heard Stephen's cold voice. "Was she lying?"Stanley didn't understand what he meant by that. "If she didn't care about me, why did she try so hard to give birth to my son? And why did I coincidentally find the perfect medication for my condition when I needed it the
