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

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."

They were both grown-ups, and Zara knew exactly what he meant by 'something else to trade'. They were so close that she could feel his every reaction!After all the commotion, he was still like that with her. It was clear that him being exposed and her knowing his true self did not bother him one bit!She was in his grasp, and nothing would change that. He could do whatever he wanted. He was so full of pride and carelessness!Zara felt like she was going to burst. "Let me go!"Yosef held her firmly, took her chin, and tried to kiss her. Without a second thought, Zara bit his tongue hard as if she wanted to sever it.He recoiled quickly, his eyes meeting her fiery gaze that was full of fury and loathing. His forehead creased, and he covered her eyes with his hand. "Why can't you just be easy?"Hearing those words, it seemed like he was saying Zara was just being silly.Zara was so angry she actually laughed. "Your dad killed my real dad, you killed the dad who raised me, and now

It was not until they got to the hospital and Yosef led her straight to the doctor's office that she felt something was off. "Aren't we supposed to visit my mom in the ICU? Why are we here?"Yosef stood by and said, "Take a seat."Confused, Zara had barely sat down when a nurse came over with a tray. She was ready to roll up Zara's sleeve.On the tray, Zara saw a rubber band for blood tests, disinfectant, needles, and blood collection tubes...Yosef said softly, "We're just going to do a blood test."Zara got it right away and turned to him. "You still think I might be pregnant?"Yosef had been hoping for a while that Zara would get pregnant. They had not been careful, so it would not be a surprise."It's just to be sure," he said.She did not want to be tested.She had not thought about the possibility before and felt it could not be true, but her recent sleepiness, big appetite, and queasiness did seem like signs.Her hand touched her stomach without her thinking, and her h

Zara was once the top secretary at Azure Cloud Group, and everyone knew her.No one could have guessed that she would come back after a year. She was even walking side by side with Yosef.With them not even trying to hide from the staring eyes, how could anyone not wonder about what was going on between them?In less than 30 minutes of Zara stepping into Azure Cloud Group, the news spread like wildfire. For the next three days, it was all anyone could talk about during their coffee breaks and lunchtime.That chatter even dug up the old love story between Yosef and Beatrice.Little by little, a tale took shape among the staff. They figured that Zara must have quit because Yosef got charmed by Beatrice, who they called a sly fox. However, Yosef had come to his senses and was trying to win back his old flame. The proof? Before the holidays, Yosef was spotted heading to Westwood a lot, and Zara was working at Schmidt Group in Westwood back then!The rumor mill was buzzing with the

The most popular club in Starville was West Palace.In a private room, dim lights and suggestive shadows danced as women in skimpy outfits moved behind a screen. The night was getting heaty. Yaxley, however, was bored.He reclined on the couch. There was a pretty woman sitting on the floor by his feet. She leaned against his knees, pouring his drinks and offering him fruit. She pretended to be close but was actually keeping her distance.After ending a phone call, he tossed his phone aside. The woman quickly popped a grape into his mouth and called out sweetly, "Mr. Lark!""Good girl," Yaxley said with a smile, patting her head like she was a little puppy. Chase walked in just then and asked, "Who was on the phone?""It was our Mr. Webb," Yaxley replied, enjoying the sweet grapes. "The hospital insider told us Yosef took Ms. Lowry for a blood test. Looks like she might be pregnant."Chase's face fell when he heard the news. He sat down on the couch, looking gloomy. Another woma

Chase walked back into the private room, his expression serious.Yaxley pointed out, "Try this sweet shrimp, it's fresh."Chase grabbed his coat from the couch, his expression blank. "Let me know if Zara is pregnant. I've got to go. I have other things to handle."Yaxley waved him off, picked up his phone, and swiped through it. Just then, a call came in. "Yes?"The voice on the phone said, "Mr. Lark, there's been a significant change in the patient's data in the ICU."Yaxley's eyes narrowed. "Is she waking up?""She's not awake yet. I just saw the data change while passing by the ICU. The doctor hasn't said much, but from what I've seen, she might be coming around."Yaxley was keeping a watchful eye on Zara, but he was determined to get the ledger from Sharon. "Stay alert and let me know if anything happens," he instructed."Understood!"...As the evening sky turned a deep orange, the clock struck seven.The Azure Cloud Group's office hours were over, and in the tall build

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
