If Elizabeth said so, there is no way she could reject her directly. So Yvonne resorted to saying, "We'll work hard on it."

"Good. It’ll be nice if you both listen." Camille became curious as she glanced at Stephen. She clearly remembered increasing the dosage of aconite in his medication so it would be more intense, so why did he look better? What the hell?

She pushed the pack of medication toward Yvonne. "Are you making sure Stephen takes his medicine on time?"

"I am." Yvonne answered, appearing to be the picture of obedience. "Don’t you think he looks better?"

Her words make Camille speechless. So Yvonne was the problem! Camille smiled. "Yes, we all wish that Stephen will recover soon."

"I know." Yvonne looked at Stephen. "I hope he recovers soon too." Even though she looked affectionate, she was actually gnashing at her teeth. She would've left him to suffer if she'd known that he would be so annoying.

Camille didn’t stay for long. She repeatedly reminded Yvonne to give Steph

    Yvonne was in low spirits today, perhaps because she'd suffered the entire day yesterday. She went straight to bed after she had dinner. She slept until midnight. She heard someone knocking on the door in a daze. Irritated, she crept out of bed and opened the door with a long face. "Who is it? What aren't you sleeping at the middle of the—"A figure passed by her, breaking her off in the middle of her sentence. He said in a deep voice, "There's something I want to talk to you about."Yvonne trembled and looked at Stephen’s back with a frown on her face. Did he need to go crazy in the middle of the night? She closed the door and followed him while yawning. "Can’t you say it tomorrow? I’m so tired—"Stephen turned around abruptly. She wasn’t able to react quickly and almost bumped into his chest. With his blurry vision, he could still see that she only wore a sling nightdress. Her fair skin made her look like she was shining.He couldn't help but think back to how her skin felt aga

    Yvonne received a call from her assistant early the next morning, informing her that Mr. Lind had gone to the police station to report Patrick for purchasing fake diamonds from him in person. Miller Jewels' legal department had also gone there early to assist in the investigation. After the investigation results came out, Miller Jewels could press charges against Patrick immediately and ask him to compensate for the company's losses and pursue the company's funds.Everything was under Yvonne's control. She was in a great mood. She was even humming to herself when she went downstairs. "Madam, what made you so happy?" Tabitha asked out of curiosity."It's about the company," Yvonne replied. She saw Stephen sitting at the dining table and greeted him. "Good morning, Mr. Anderson."Tabitha felt that something was wrong between them, and she was pretty worried about it. So she was very happy when she saw Yvonne taking the initiative to greet Stephen. Tabitha elbowed Stephen when he

    Yvonne didn't even turn her head back to look at him. "We have no grudges against each other. I don't think we need to meet in private except for business."Xavier was smiling the whole time. "Since we hold no grudges against each other, why must you be unapproachable?""It was you." Kayla came and stood beside Xavier. She stared at Yvonne arrogantly. "You're so shameless. This isn't the place for you. How dare you come in!""There's actually a sign saying no dogs are allowed outside the door. Didn't you just come in?" Yvonne answered with a question.Kayla lost her temper and shouted, "Yvonne Miller!""You're not allowed to bark here.""You…"Kayla stomped her foot angrily. She couldn't fight with Yvonne directly since Xavier was here; it would ruin her image as the refined daughter of a wealthy family. She could only clench her fists, her nails digging into her palms.Kayla's friends rushed to her side. Sensing that something was wrong, they quickly spoke in support of her.

    Xavier looked at the curly-haired woman. "Show me your necklace."The woman took the necklace off and argued, "It's real. It's a birthday present from my mom, so it can't be fake!"Xavier took the necklace, pulled out the magnifying loupe he carried around with him, and held it over the gemstone. While it was difficult for him to pinpoint whether the gem was genuine or not, its purity was visible even to the naked eye. QT only sold high-quality jewelry with the finest gemstones, so there was no way a stone of this purity was genuine.At best, it could only be seen as a high-quality imitation. A seasoned gemologist like Xavier needed the help of tools to appraise gems, yet Yvonne had been able to distinguish them with a single glance. While her skills astounded him, he was also becoming more curious about how many more surprises she had in store for him.He tossed the necklace back to the other woman and ordered, "Don't wear that anymore. It's embarrassing. I hate seeing people wear kn

    "I—I have no idea what you're talking about," Charles answered falteringly, feigning ignorance. "I just remembered that I haven't checked in on you for some time, a—and it's been a while since you moved home, so I wanted to know if that freak has been taking care of you—""We have nothing to talk about." Stephen had heard enough of this nonsense and had already gotten the answers he needed.Charles had switched out the medication Camille sent him, which meant that despite knowing that Camille had tampered with the medicine, his father had chosen to ignore this matter and was even protecting her. This was more than enough to prove how insignificant Stephen was to Charles.If that were the case, saying anything else would be useless.Stephen hung up resolutely, his knuckles turning white from his tight grip on his phone.…That night, Stephen didn't go downstairs for dinner. Tabitha brought some food to his door, but the man refused before she even entered his room. Back in the dining ro

    The moonlight spun around them like yarn, illuminating the beautiful room. Abruptly, someone's phone went off, shattering the steamy mood. Stephen cursed softly, his lips next to Yvonne's ears. He pulled himself up and sat on the other end of the couch.Meanwhile, Yvonne felt oddly disappointed. She pulled up the parts of her shirt that had slipped off and grabbed her phone to see six missed calls from Thomas. Frowning, she called him back. "Hello?"Thomas was already boiling with rage after having been unable to reach her the past few tries, and his anger only increased upon hearing her displeased tone. "Why did it take you so long to pick up? Do you think you can ignore me just because you've grown up?" Thomas fumed.The sudden admonition annoyed Yvonne. "Talk about something serious, or hang up. You're calling the wrong person if you want to act like a loving father.""You!" Thomas massaged his temple to calm himself. He then enunciated, "Do you really plan to make Miller Jewels sue

    Back in Miller Villa, Monica gingerly approached Thomas as he hung up his phone. "Patrick has been spending a lot of money these years. It's impossible to make up for it now…""I know that!" Thomas snapped, his face dark. "Tomorrow, I'll ask him how much money he has left and find a way to come up with the rest.""What?" Monica's eyes widened. "No way! You shouldn't even have to deal with this shit! I'll talk to Dad and blame everything on Yvonne–""Enough! Things are messy enough as they are." Thomas glared at his wife. "Yvonne promised to let Patrick go once she receives the money. So that's what we'll do.""Why do you have to be the dupe? Patrick got himself into this mess, so why should you clean up after him?" Monica pointed a finger at him. "The old man doesn't take you seriously because you're too weak! Can't you stand up for yourself? He'll be the one to regret cutting ties with you anyway! Ha! He's also got a good eye for weaklings. He knows how to keep you under his thumb for

    Earlier this morning, Thomas had gone to the police station to pick Patrick up, only to be told that his brother had been sent to a detention center. It turned out that Yvonne's lawyer had sued Patrick for attempting to murder her by hiring a contract killer. On his way to the company, Thomas was so furious that he almost ran a red light. He wanted to kill Yvonne. "Didn't you promise to let him go? What is the meaning of this?""I did what I promised to do." Yvonne smiled. "But I never said anything about forgiving him for hiring someone to kill me. He should pay the price for his actions.""You!" Thomas was at a loss for words. He'd never expected her to do such a thing!Yvonne stood up and rested her palms on the table, leaning over to stare at Thomas. "Say, if I had died in that container, would you seek justice for me? Or would you still let Patrick go?"Thomas dared not reply. Even he couldn't answer whether he would continue to protect his brother if Yvonne had truly been killed

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.
