The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 690 How Could She Not Regret It?
"Grandpa, I would like to call the engagement off as well." When Philip heard that, he looked at Ariel in disbelief. "W—what are you talking about, Ariel? Are you thinking straight?"Enduring her heartache, she shook her head. "I'm serious. Since Stephen doesn't want to marry me, what's the point of forcing him? Grandpa, forced marriage doesn't bring happiness.""No ... It shouldn't be like this ..." Philip was at a loss. He couldn't figure out what Ariel was thinking. All this time, Ariel's biggest wish had been to get married to Stephen. She had even sacrificed so much for it. How could she simply give up on it now?Ariel's heart stung like hell. But there was nothing else she could do but force a smile. "Isn't loving someone all about wanting them to be happy?"Philip seemed to have thought of something and immediately pulled a long face. "Did he threaten you?""No, I'm the one who wants to give up on this marriage." Ariel glanced at Stephen. Her eyes were filled with uns
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 691 Don't Boss Me Around!
After the confrontation, Philip stopped contacting Stephen. Everyone in Anderson Mansion was wise enough not to bring the whole thing up. They didn't want to make Philip angry.Meanwhile, Stephen's days went on as if nothing had ever happened. During this period, he only received a text from Linda, encouraging him to follow his heart's desire. But no one knew that Yvonne had already blocked him.He decided to reach out again after the whole mess had subsided.However, before that could happen, Elvin made an appearance. Since Julian knew Elvin well, he knew who it was when the front desk told him a child was looking for Stephen.Julian wasn't one to take his boss' affairs lightly, so he headed straight for the conference room. Yet the tense atmosphere that greeted him when he got there made his steps falter. Julian stopped and assessed the situation.It seemed like the meeting between Noah and Stephen had taken a turn for the worse while Julian had stepped out to answer the p
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 692 Who's the Fool Now?
"Because I'm about to own more shares," retorted Noah confidently. After the fallout in the conference room, Noah felt like there was no use hiding it anymore. He approached Stephen with a smug look. "Say, what will our dad do when he finds out that you transferred 20% of your shares to Emerald Group?"Stephen frowned and grabbed Noah by the collar. "Who told you that?""Who do you think?" Noah sneered. A flustered Stephen was such a sight to behold. "You're the one who gave the shares away. Better prepare yourself for the consequences. After all, you won't be able to control the outcome."Noah then rapped Stephen's shoulder mockingly. "Yelling just shows how desperate you are."Stephen refused to let go of Noah. His eyes were brimming with murderous intent. He hadn't expected Mark to transfer the shares to Noah right away. It was clear Mark had done it to make Stephen and Noah fight each other. Noah was an ambitious man. More shares meant he could demand more power in An
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 693 It's What I Should Do
"I saw online that you want to remarry my mommy." Elvin fixed his eyes on Stephen and enunciated his words clearly. "I don't agree."Stephen frowned. "It's not your place to object to it.""My mommy won't get married to you again. You're a bad man. I don't like you, nor does my mommy," Elvin continued. Stephen's face darkened. "Then in your eyes, who's a good man? Caleb?" "Yes!" Elvin replied resolutely. Julian immediately stepped forward to defend Elvin and looked at Stephen with a troubled expression. "Mr. Anderson, don't take his words to heart." Yvonne cared deeply about Elvin. If Stephen were to do something to the little boy for real, things would only get worse.Stephen knew that Julian was telling him to calm down. Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath and ordered coldly, "Send him back to where he came from." "I'll do it right now." Julian nodded in a hurry. He turned around to pull Elvin along with him. However, the little boy shoved Julian's hand off and gla
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 694 Can You Not Be a Smart Alec?
Stephen was surprised when he received a call from Yvonne in the middle of the night. With an imperceptible curl at the corners of his lips, he answered the phone. "What's the matter?"Yvonne cut straight to the chase. "Are you in your right mind? Why did you give shares to Emerald Group?"Stephen was stunned. It seemed like it had been a waste of time talking to Elvin today. The kid simply didn't listen to him."Did you meet Mark?" Yvonne continued without waiting for his reply.She had been thinking about this since dinner. The only explanation that she managed to think of was that Stephen had made a deal with Mark. "Stephen, can you not be a smart alec? I don't need you to intervene in my affairs. Don't think that I'll be grateful to you just because you gave 20% of Anderson Group's shares to Emerald Group." Yvonne was bent out of shape. "Do you have any idea how foolish it was to fall into Mark's trap?" "I do," he replied. "But I'd still make the same decision even if I
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 695 Where Is Stephen?
"I just want to have a chat with you. Why are you keeping me at arm's length, Ms. Miller?" Noah approached her and curled up the corners of his lips. "I heard that Stephen wants to remarry you. What do you think about it?""I don't think this has anything to do with you, Mr. Noah," she said. However, Yvonne's indifference didn't stop him from getting closer to her. He stood right in front of her, so close that he could get a clear look at her delicate face when he lowered his eyes. Noah's eyes glinted. "Ms. Miller, I told you that we could become great business partners. My opinion on that still hasn't changed. I'm still waiting for you to reconsider it."He added, "You know, I think highly of you, Ms. Miller. I don't want you to make the wrong decision." He raised his hand and wanted to push the loose strands of her hair from her shoulder.However, Yvonne took a step back and dodged his touch. "Whether it turns out to be right or wrong, the decision is still mine."Noah wa
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 696 He Didn't Have to Go There Personally
"Mr. Stephen has gone to the border. There are some problems with the dock development project. He told me to stay at Anderson Group Tower to keep an eye on Mr. Noah, so I didn't follow him there."Julian added, "Ms. Miller, I know I shouldn't say much about this, but I'm really worried about Mr. Stephen."Julian didn't make things clear over the phone. However, Yvonne could guess that Stephen's visit to the border must have something to do with Mark. After sorting out her work at Miller Jewels, she booked the earliest flight to the border. No matter what, Stephen was entangled in this mess because of her. She couldn't just sit by and do nothing. When the flight landed at the border the next morning, Yvonne called Howard to pick her up. Since Yvonne's visit was so sudden, Howard couldn't help feeling curious. "Why are you here?" he asked as soon as he saw her."Has there been any news about Mark lately?" Yvonne got straight to the point right away. That made Howard uneasy. "
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 697 That Pretty Boy?
"I dislike people like you the most! You guys always have a mask on, and your words are nothing but lies!" Dylan spat on the floor and continued, "Listen up, I'm not going to let you guys have the dock! Tell your people to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'm going to have you killed and hang your corpse out for everyone to see!" The border had always been in a state of turmoil, with violence and firearms going unchecked. If Dylan dared to say something like that, he naturally had the ability to do so.However, Stephen showed no signs of fear. Staring straight into Dylan's eyes, he said, "I've already acquired the dock. Your business is nothing more than a small logistics company. Do you think you can keep the dock with you just by taking my life?""You ..." Exasperated, Dylan pressed the broken glass against Stephen's neck. "Damn! Are you not afraid of death?"The sharp end scratched Stephen's skin, leaving a streak of red. Nevertheless, there were no changes in his expr

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.

"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.

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

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
Chapter 1672 I'm The Woman Stephen Married
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.
