The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1168 You've Been Possessed
Jane only remembered someone knocking her unconscious. She didn't know what happened after that.When she heard what Stephen said, she quickly looked around for her belongings. Sure enough, her jewelry and bag were missing.Jane was instantly furious. "Robbers are really getting more and more brazen these days!""It's fine as long as you're safe."Now that everything was explained, Claude felt a little embarrassed. "Mr. Anderson, I got a little emotional back there. I'm sorry. I …""It's fine. I understand." Stephen tidied his collar and looked at Jane. He kindly reminded her, "Ms. Ford, you should pay more attention to Mr. Ford's feelings. Don't do things that make him worry.""How would I—""Mr. Anderson is right," Claude answered before Jane could say anything. He glared at her warningly, too.Stephen has already made himself clear. If Jane were to still fawn after him, his suspicion toward Stephen a moment ago would be a complete joke.Stephen was already showing courtes
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1137 I Thought You Ran Off
"Stephen!" Yvonne was flustered. She glared at him. "This is my room. Without my permission, you can't—"The next second, Stephen grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her into his arms.Yvonne tried to resist, but he was too strong. He hugged her tightly, not letting her go.He buried his head in Yvonne's neck. In a rather aggrieved and resentful tone, he said "All this while, you didn't even ask me what I was doing. "Yvonne, where is your heart? I've been helping you do so many things. Don't I deserve your concern?"Yvonne was stunned. "Y-You were waiting for me to contact you?""What else?" Stephen hugged her tighter, as if he were punishing her. "I left you a note. I thought you would soon send me a message. I never thought that I wouldn't hear a single word from you for such a long time. "Do you just not care about me? Or are you just unwilling to take the first step?"What he said easily stopped Yvonne from retorting in reflex. She pursed her lips and muttered, "I thoug
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1138 He's Looking For You
Sure enough, Yvonne quieted down.Stephen slowly said, "Didn't I promise you I would snatch those few pieces of land that Mark wanted? I was busy with this all this time. "I had only gotten two pieces of land when Mark noticed. He sent men to track me down. If I'm not wrong, he should already be in the city."Yvonne was a little surprised. "He's coming to look for you?""Yes." Stephen shut his eyes a little. "That is also part of my plan."Yvonne pondered for a while before frowning. "You're going to deliberately mislead him to think that you're also interested in the metal mines so that his focus will all be on you?""That's right."While Yvonne was thinking, Stephen hugged her tightly. "All you need to do is prepare for the bid. I'll handle the rest. Just wait to get the mine in your hands."Stephen smiled. "Treat it as compensation for my rough behavior last night."Instantly, the atmosphere turned flirtatious once more.Yvonne rolled her eyes. "Am I to thank you for bein
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1139 Give Mark a Surprise
An hour later, the middle-aged man was sent back to his hotel.Seeing the car leave, the man calmed down. Gone was the panic on his face. He entered the hotel and quickly found Julian."Mr. Jacobs, I did everything according to Mr. Anderson's instructions. I've told them what he told me to say."Julian patted the man on the shoulder. "Thank you.""It's nothing much. I was only kicked once. They saw that I was rather honest, so they didn't cause me much trouble. It's just that …" The man hesitated before asking, "They are our competitors, but you told me to spill information, even going as far as letting them know our bidding price. Won't we lose out on the bid then?""Mr. Anderson has his reasons for doing so. Your task is complete. You don't have to ask any further questions." Julian handed the man a check. "This is your reward."When the man saw the check, he happily accepted it and thanked Julian. He no longer cared about Stephen's reasons.After the man left, Julian sent
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1140 His True Self
"He has already stolen two pieces of land from me. He's also attending this bid today. Take a guess—do you think he'll bid for this mine and give it to Yvonne?"Mark shrugged nonchalantly. "I'm fine with it, but I heard that you've found a lot of partners just for this mine today. If you don't manage to get it, you won't be able to explain yourself."Over the years, Neil had been eager to expand his business, so the cash flow had been tight for a long time. He had found a few partners to fund the bid for him this time.That was why Neil had to get the mine, no matter what. After all, he needed to give his partners an explanation.This news wasn't a secret in the industry.Neil glared at Mark. "You don't have to worry about me.""I'm just reminding you that the biggest competitor today is Stephen. You and I have worked together in the past. I am who I am today because of you—""Shut up," Neil berated. "You and I have no past together.""Sure." Mark pretended to shrug helplessly.
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1169 None of Them Will Get Away
After Stephen left, Yvonne returned to her seat. She looked at Leonard with interest. "Do tell."Leonard cleared his throat. "So … we won't be able to help you anymore in the future.""Is that so?" Yvonne was curious. "Do you have any problems? Tell me. Perhaps I could help you out.""We have our own plans, so we might be too busy to help you. We just wanted to let you know ahead so you'd be prepared." Leonard said apologetically, "Yvonne, you don't have to pay us back the money for the lead mine. If you have any problems in the metallurgy industry, you can talk to Neil. I'll let him know in advance."He continued, "As for Well Spring Pharma, you know it better than we do. I'm sure we don't need to worry about it, right?"Yvonne could roughly guess what Leonard was trying to do. They had still been trying to get her on their side the day before, yet they were letting her go now. She was a little caught off guard by this 180-degree change.She looked at Leonard for a while, th

"I was following Mark's men, which led me to Leonard and Claude," Gwen said softly. "Last week, Mark sent men to wreck Claude's business in the docks. I was curious about what they had done to make Mark so angry."Ever since she had left Northerna City, she had been looking for a chance to spy on Mark to collect information. If she were to find out about important information, she could let Yvonne know.She had initially wanted to contact Yvonne once she got to the bottom of this matter. But she had never thought that Yvonne would also come to Leonard and Claude's manor.She had also been surprised to find Howard staking out near the manor. When she had seen him following Jane's car, she had followed him into the city and witnessed him knocking Jane unconscious.Gwen looked at Howard. "Yvonne came to the manor to look for you, right?"Howard shook her head. "Ms. Y doesn't know that I'm here. They're here because Leonard and Claude asked for a meeting.""A meeting at this time?"
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1171 Don’t Let Chuck Take Advantage of You
Gwen ignored Howard. She took off her jacket and the inner layer, revealing the tank top she wore underneath, as well as her scars all over her body.Howard was bewildered. He asked stiffly, "Gwen, h-how did this happen?""This was Chuck's doing."Gwen got up and walked over to Howard. "He imprisoned me and tortured me. He almost killed me. If it hadn't been for Yvonne, I would have long been dead."Howard's eyes widened in disbelief. He couldn't find his words for a very long time. He would never have imagined that the scars on Gwen's body had anything to do with the polite and sympathetic Chuck!Gwen continued coldly, "Chuck is a wolf in sheep's clothing. It's impossible that he's doing anything for you sincerely. "He only told you Jane was the one who kidnapped Jade because he plans on taking advantage of you. Are you going to let him succeed?"Howard was stunned. He slowly came to his senses. So Gwen was the reason Jim and Yvonne had refused to let Chuck treat Jade."I …

The Jewel of Your Love 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. 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. "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. "What is it?""You've been distracted since yesterday. Are you thinking of something?" Mark asked.Agatha shook her head. "Nothing." Then, she picked up her teacup and
The Jewel of Your Love 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
The Jewel of Your Love 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
The Jewel of Your Love 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

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
The Jewel of Your Love 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

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.
