It was so quiet in the study that only the sound of their breathing could be heard.

Yvonne smiled faintly. "It's the first time I've heard that I need protection. Since I had joined Emerald Group, I had been taught about protecting others even at the cost of my life."

She added, "Unfortunately, I only remember that and completely forgot about following orders.

"If Mark had known about my rebellious nature early on, do you think he might have killed me before I reached adulthood?"

Yvonne sounded casual, but her words made Stephen's heart ache.

He released his grip, grabbed her shoulder, and turned her around.

As Yvonne lifted her gaze to meet Stephen's affectionate eyes, she chuckled lightly and said, "Why are you bothered now? It's all in the past now, and it's not a big deal—"

With utmost seriousness, Stephen interrupted, "Regardless of your identity and origin, to me, you're simply Yvonne, my woman.

"You deserve protection, and it's a failure on my part if I make you worry

    Jane was secretly pleased. She had been so engrossed in dealing with Jade these past few days that she had forgotten to report this matter to Claude and the others.With that in mind, she grabbed the phone and exclaimed excitedly without waiting for the other end to speak, "Grandpa, I've successfully completed the task. "Mark must be frantically worried now, and it won't be long before Yvonne holds him accountable!" "It's good that it's been taken care of. You should find some time to return to the manor ..." Claude coughed forcefully several times, and his voice became weak. "I'm currently in the hospital. I hope you can come and keep me company."Jane was taken aback. "What happened to you? Why are you in the hospital?""I … I slipped and fell a few days ago … I'm in great discomfort. Please come back soon." It was the first time Claude had lied to Jane, so he couldn't help but feel uneasy. However, having grown up by Claude's side, Jane knew him like the back of her hand.

    Yvonne's worry about Jade's situation made her slightly distracted during her interactions with the medical corporations. Fortunately, with Jim's help, she avoided any mistakes.Later in the evening, Yvonne took a break from entertaining a visiting team. After downing a few glasses of wine out of courtesy, she went to the terrace for some fresh air. She stood by the railing, savoring the gentle breeze, and decided to call Curtis."How's Howard? Any movement at the mansion?" she asked."Howard refuses to rest. He's still keeping an eye on the mansion," Curtis replied.He moved aside and cast a brief look in Howard's direction. A sigh escaped him. "If this goes on, I worry that he might collapse before catching a glimpse of Jade.""Jade means everything to him. He won't rest until he knows she's safe."Looking up at the night sky, Yvonne added, "Keep an eye on Howard. I'll join you soon." Her eyes were filled with hints of melancholy."Please rest ass

    The sound of punches and kicks echoed through the dimly lit parking lot for 20 minutes.When the bag was finally removed from Chuck's head, he was woefully out of shape. His face was covered in blood, and he lay on the ground, unable to move at all.Mark approached Chuck slowly and squatted down beside him. He smacked a report on the latter's face."Chuck, I trusted you, and is this how you repay me? How dare you tamper with the drowsy incense?"Mark gripped Chuck's collar and forced their eyes to meet. "Did Leonard and Claude order you to do that? It appears you are still under their influence."Chuck was overwhelmed by sheer terror upon seeing the murderous intent in Mark's eyes. He quickly apologized. "I-I know I messed up. Please spare me."Mark sneered. "A biting dog can't be let loose.""No … I swear I won't …"Chuck was so frightened that he could barely speak.

Well done. I'm giving you credit."Chuck chuckled wryly after reading the message.

    "The daughter of one of Yvonne's men."A person's life was at stake. Jane was finally panicking. "Grandpa, I wanted to tell you two about this. But I was angry at you, so I forgot about it. I went to the border because I found out that Mark was holding someone captive to threaten Yvonne. "I thought of taking her away so that Mark and Yvonne could tear at each other's throats."Jane's voice was trembling. "But … before they even start to fight, the hostage is going to die in my hands. What should I do?""What?" Leonard's expression darkened. He soon guessed who the hostage was. "Are you talking about Howard Hough's daughter?""I guess. Her name is Jade …" Jane looked at Leonard aggrievedly. "Grandpa Leonard, am I in trouble?""Yes." Leonard said sternly, "Howard is Yvonne's right-hand man at the mines at the border.

    Outside the mansion, Howard suddenly panicked. He could barely hold onto his flask of hot water, and some of it even splashed to the ground.Curtis immediately passed him some tissues. Unexpectedly, Howard grabbed his hand instead."Curtis, I'm really worried. I feel that something bad is about to happen. Do you think Jade …""Don't scare yourself." Curtis placed his hand on Howard's shoulder. "We're all here, keeping watch. What could happen to her?""But …"Right at this moment, Howard noticed a man driving out of the mansion. He suddenly had an urge. "Curtis, come with me.""What?" Before Curtis could react, Howard had already dragged him onto a motorcycle. He put on a helmet. The next second, the motorcycle flew forward. Curtis instinctively held onto it. He asked Howard, "Why are we following him? We could let the others do it."Howard didn't reply to him. He merely kept looking at the car. At the border, a motorcycle was much easier to get around compared to a car, so

    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.

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.

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.

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.
