Mr. Webb, Make Your Move! Chapter 500
The car pulled up to the entrance of the Central Hospital. Zara stepped out, eager to leave. However, Yosef, who had followed her, caught her arm."Yosef!" she protested, trying to pull away. However, he said calmly, "If you want to see your mom, you'll need to work with me."Work with him on what? Zara's brows furrowed, but Yosef did not explain. He just took her hand and led her into the hospital, not letting go even once.As they climbed the steps, a car that had been trailing them came to a stop. The back window rolled down, revealing Yaxley and Chase.They watched the pair walk in together, their gazes lingering until Yosef and Zara disappeared inside the hospital.Yaxley chuckled. "Mr. Webb actually managed to bring Ms. Lowry back. I thought she had taken off with Shawn... Isn't he her first love? Looks like she's decided Mr. Webb is the better choice, after all."Chase played with a string of beads in his hand and said calmly, "She returned because of her mom, which is why

The doctor nodded knowingly. "Usually, if there's no bleeding, it's not a serious issue. Lie down on the bed, and I'll check with the ultrasound.""Okay."Shelby got up and lay on the hospital bed, lifting up her shirt. The chilly probe glided over her still-flat belly. She gazed at the bright white ceiling, gripping the hem of her shirt tightly.Since the incident at the hotel two weeks ago, she and Harper had a big fight. He accused her of reuniting with Chase and booking a hotel room together. She did not even try to explain—especially since he had gone fishing with young models. He was the one who had cheated.She was sure Harper would not want a divorce because he was eyeing her inheritance. Hence, she went straight to court to ask for a divorce.She could overlook Harper's greed, but she could not stand him being unfaithful.Then, there was the baby—unexpected and sudden. She was still unsure if she should keep it...The doctor put the probe away and handed her some tiss

Zara was gently placed into the car by Yosef. She clutched his collar, refusing to let him leave. She looked into his eyes. "Yosef, why did my mom suddenly pass out? What did you guys do to her?"She remembered leaving Starville with her mom, Sharon, perfectly fine. It had only been a few days. What could have gone wrong?Yosef stayed bent over, his eyes on Zara. He then glanced out the back window, spotting a sedan creeping closer.Zara could not stop picturing her mom in the hospital bed and struggled to breathe. "You didn't scare her, did you?"Yosef stayed quiet. Zara always got upset when it came to her mom. She yanked on his collar. "Yosef! We need to clear this up now. What do you really want? The ledger or our lives?"Yosef, being tugged forward, looked at her angry face and said something unexpected, "I don't want any of that. I just want you to stay with me."Zara was about to tell him he was dreaming when Yosef gently held the back of her head and kissed her before she

Yosef's neck wound went untreated, and the blood turned the collar of his black shirt even darker. The blood had dried into a scab. It was stark against his pale skin.Zara bit her lip.She knew all too well about Yosef, the only son of the wealthy Webb family from Starville. With his high status, he probably never even had a scraped knee as a child. Her causing him to bleed was a big deal, not just to the powerful Azure Cloud Group and the Webb family, but also to his close circle—like Wilder, who always followed him. They would never stand for it.However, wait, that was not entirely true.He had been hurt before, and both times it involved her. Once, in the wild forest, he was hit in the back with a stick while protecting her. Another time, during a village inspection, he got stabbed in the belly by one of Winston's men. Luckily, she acted fast enough to stop a second attack.Zara stayed silent as Yosef pulled her close, letting her rest her chin on his shoulder.In a gentle

The driver and Charvi sat up front, masters of making themselves nearly invisible when Yosef did not need them.At Yosef's command, the car roared to life."Tell Samwell to take a team to East Coast," Yosef ordered, his voice cold as ice. "Before we get home, make sure all the knives, porcelain, and anything sharp that could hurt or be used for self-harm are gone. We can't risk our young lady getting hurt."Charvi nodded, murmuring quietly, "Yes."Zara knew he was watching out for her, but what could she do? She just had to play along....Their car sped toward East Coast while Yaxley's vehicle pulled over to the side of the road. "You followed me into the hospital. See anything?"Chase stayed silent, and that meant a firm no. Yaxley, fighting off sleepiness, let out a big yawn and asked in a tired voice, "You saw them too, right? Kissing in the car. They're really close. They're probably heading home together now. Don't believe me? Want to keep following them?"Chase said, "No
Mr. Webb, Make Your Move! Chapter 505
Chase strolled up as the driver stepped out, swung open the back door of the car, and greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Wiste, have you had dinner yet? My boss has set up a table of delicious dishes at Dutton Tower. She'd be delighted if you could join us.""What should I call your boss?" Chase inquired."She goes by the name Mrs. Parker," the driver answered.Oh, Mrs. Parker? That was intriguing.Chase thought for a moment before hopping into the car....Zara found herself at East Coast, courtesy of Yosef.As she stepped in, she noticed the house was indeed very 'safe' with no porcelain in sight. Even the flower vases were plastic.Zara smirked. "What's next? Am I going to be locked up here, not allowed to leave?"Yosef shrugged off his coat, which a silent helper promptly collected. "I wouldn't dream of confining you. You've had a rough time and need some rest. Just relax at home for now."What could Zara do but agree? "Fine, I'll rest."She marched upstairs to the guest roo
Mr. Webb, Make Your Move! Chapter 506
Zara paused, shocked.Then, realizing what he had just said, she got even angrier. Without thinking, she started throwing everything within reach at him. "Yosef!"He did not dodge everything this time. A tissue box hit his shoulder and fell to the floor. He picked it up, casually wiped his mouth with a tissue, and walked over to her as a helper brought his coat.He tried to ruffle her hair, but Zara dodged out of the way. He did not seem to care. He just put on his coat and said, "Stay put and wait for me at home."Zara just watched him with a cold stare.Yosef spun on his heel, stepped out, and locked the door behind him. As the lock beeped, Zara squeezed her eyes shut. In a rare fit of anger, she smashed everything else in sight.She never acted that way, but a wave of rage was crushing her chest. If she did not let it out, she felt like she might explode.The helpers were supposed to clean up, but she commanded them, "Leave it!"The helpers exchanged puzzled looks. Zara stor

Wilder did not hesitate. He strode down to the lobby and called for the valet to fetch his car.As he waited, he glanced back at the Azure Cloud Group sign and thought back to the day Zara shattered the bowl. He had instantly noticed a missing piece of porcelain, but...He touched his tongue to his cheek. His sharp features and narrow eyes shone brightly.Several valet attendants were having a tough time pushing the heavy motorcycle toward Wilder. He watched them struggle, gave a disapproving click of his tongue, and walked over with big steps.He slipped on his helmet, swung his long legs over the seat, revved the engine, and zoomed off....As March arrived and spring began, the days started to stretch longer. Yosef stepped into East Coast while bathed in the last glow of the evening sky.At that moment, Zara was nearly done with her meal at the dining table. There were four dishes served in total.Yosef remarked, "You're eating well. I thought you might be skipping meals."

Harper's kisses were always teasing, intentionally awakening her senses.Their tongues tangled, taking her breath away. When she felt like she could not breathe and instinctively grabbed at his shirt, Harper let go and kissed his way down to her chin, neck, and chest.She could not resist him.Shelby was torn. She did not have to hold back her body's needs and reactions, especially since they could not end their marriage just yet. He was her husband, after all, so why should she deny herself? She decided to make the most of it.Men could easily separate love from physical desire, and women could too. Shelby did not think that accepting Harper's touches meant she liked him. It was just about meeting a need.She would just get that over with.Shelby's fingers gripped the sheets tightly as Harper kissed her growing belly. She was six months along, and her belly was a little bigger. The thought of their child made his heart melt, and he kissed her several more times before suddenly s

Shelby made a sound of agreement, her back sore from sitting too long. She leaned back against Harper without much thought. She was busy with her work and not in the mood for conversation.Harper quickly got the gist of the case file. In short, it was a classic example of someone facing the consequences of their own actions.In the western part of Starville, there was a middle school and a vocational school. The two schools were just a street apart. Not all, but at least 80% of the vocational school students were troublemakers.One of those students, Yered, often rounded up his gang to shake down the middle school kids for their money.Since last year, the bullies had been targeting Steven Scott, a middle schooler. They would often demand money from him. Steven was shy and scared, so he never stood up to them and just handed over the cash.However, this time, as he was walking with a girl from his class, the bullies blocked their path again. They started to pick on the girl becaus

Samantha was really happy. She lifted her finger elegantly and said softly, "One step at a time. First, we'll make sure the child is gone. Then, we'll push them to divorce, and in the end, when she's weak from losing the baby, we'll take care of her." If Shelby died as Harper's wife, then Harper would get everything, and that would be bad. The two women agreed. While reclining on their bamboo chairs, they started dreaming about their perfect future—one with the Young family and the other with all the money. Since the foot masseuse could not hear or speak, they talked freely, not worried about anyone overhearing them. After the massage, they even went to eat together. The masseuse quietly cleaned up and tidied the room. Then, she headed straight for the lookout point. The resort was in the mountains, with lots of trees and streams. The lookout was up high, with a great view of all the little mountains. It was a beautiful spot that every guest at the hotel made sure to visit.

Adalee was doubtful. "Is it really that serious? Our husband doesn't like that dowdy wife or the eldest son. Even if he's started to favor Harper more because of his marriage to the Lambert family, that still won't affect our children.""Our husband used to leave the company matters to our sons, but now he's handing them over to Harper. Who knows what the future holds?" Samantha said with a hint of malice. "We can't take that risk. We can't let Harper get too much leverage. We can't let him and his child have too great a chance to win."Adalee could see Samantha was desperate and asked anxiously, "What are you thinking of doing? She's a lawyer. She knows the law, and she's the sole heir to the Lambert family."Samantha's eyes suddenly became slits. "That's right, she's the only one who will inherit the Lambert family's fortune. With that kind of money, there are loads of people who want to trick her or get their hands on it. "She's a lawyer, not a superhero. Just wait. I'll make

It was Shelby's first visit to the Youngs' place, and by chance, she walked in on his father's so-called second and third wives being snide to Harper. His dad had not lifted a finger to help. It seemed like this was not a one-off occurrence.Was that the way they always treated him?Harper, taken aback by her blunt question, nearly slammed on the brakes. What?"Me, being pushed around in the family? That's just because I can't be bothered..." Who would waste their time arguing with a bunch of women or stoop so low as to fight with their dad's other women? That would be so embarrassing, right?However, he stopped himself mid-sentence.Because he suddenly realized that by saying that, he was making it sound like he felt bad for being 'picked on' at home.Harper slowed the car down and glanced at Shelby. Her eyebrows were knitted together, and she looked really serious. She was definitely not happy.He almost smiled, but he pushed it back down. He swallowed hard and changed his voi

She faced Samantha, not bothering to argue about inheritance rights. "You still haven't answered my earlier question. What does 'stepmother' mean?"Caught off guard by the sudden shift back to the topic, Samantha was momentarily speechless.Shelby did not wait for her to catch up. She pulled out her phone and quickly tapped the screen."Ah, I see," Shelby remarked, glancing at her phone. "According to this, 'stepmother' used to refer to a concubine in ancient times. That's similar to a servant, isn't it? So, in modern terms, it's like a maid. "Got it now. Would you mind getting me some salad? Thanks."The nerve of her, treating Samantha like a common maid! She had never been so insulted. "You!"Shelby set her phone down and met her gaze. "Since you're so curious, I'll fill you in. In the Lambert family, my word is law. If you're ever curious about me again, just ask me directly. No need to rely on rumors."Samantha bit her lip and looked to Gilbert for support, but he just sat

It was Shelby.Pregnant and in flats, she stood firm with not a hint of weakness about her.Her steady gaze fell on the two women who fancied themselves important, leaving them at a loss for words.Harper paused for just a moment, then quickly got to his feet and hurried over. "Dear!"The Young family's house was bright and airy. Harper's eyes sparkled with the unexpected joy of seeing Shelby, who had said she would not come. His face lit up with a smile.Shelby watched him, amused. She thought he was like their excited Shiba Inu, dashing over at the sight of its owner.Harper reached her side, calling out again, "Dear."Shelby gave a small nod. "Yeah."The guests at the dining table snapped out of their surprise, and Wrenley beamed. "Shelby, you're here."Shelby greeted her parents-in-law, "Mom, Dad."Wrenley hurried over to help her, her actions showing just how much she cherished her daughter-in-law.That was Shelby's first visit to the Young family since her wedding. She

Harper waited until Wrenley had said enough, andthen he spoke up."I just don't get you. Your family's loaded, my grandparents are laidback, and Dad doesn't even like you. Why stick to him? Just divorce him, take half his stuff, go home, and hang out with some young models. "That'd be way better than sticking to a lost cause. You've got no ambition."If it were Shelby, she would have left by then if he had not trapped her by getting her pregnant and holding something over her head. Why couldn't his mom be more like his wife?"In your dreams!"Wrenley, with tears in her eyes, scoffed. "The Young family wasn't always so fancy. I married him, and he promised me the moon. 'A good wife helps me reach my dreams, and I'll pay her back in gold.' And then what? "Once the Young family made it big, he just kept bringing in more women and their kids. How can I accept that? I'll fight him to the end, even if it kills me!"Harper sighed. "You want to fight him, I don't. Shelby and her baby

"An old friend?" Zara questioned. "If an old friend wanted to see me, they should be visiting the cemetery, not here."Only a very few people knew she was still alive.Shawn asked, "Is it a man or a woman?""A young man. He also said something else...""What did he say?"The butler hesitated, then relayed, "He said... The miss tricked him, and now she owes him for it."Zara was speechless.The garden fell silent for a moment, with only the whisper of the summer wind rustling through the flowers.Seconds later, Shawn set aside his tablet and smiled slightly. "Really? That sounds fun. Get him to come in. I'd like to meet him too."Zara had thought it was just a joke, but when the butler led the visitor in, she stood up in astonishment.It was him!...In Parnova, the sun shone brightly.However, in Starville, the weather was turning.The sky had been clear when Harper left home in the morning. However, when he reached the Youngs' place at noon, he saw the sun hidden behind
