Claude glared at Leonard. "There is nothing to explain! You chose to side with Yvonne tonight! I have nothing to say to you!"

"I got a call from Kendrick just now," Leonard said.

"He was the one who asked me to let Yvonne go."

"What?" Claude was baffled.

"This has something to do with him too?"

Leonard shook his head. "I don't know. He wouldn't tell me. He only said that if we want to see him, we'll have to do as he says."

Leonard added, "Claude, we have worked so hard to try to meet him. He's offered us the rare opportunity to meet. Are you willing to give this up?

"Besides, we don't know why Kendrick is helping Yvonne. If we offend him as well because of this, we will be facing an enemy that we are no match for."

By then, forget seeking justice for Jane; they might end up getting killed.

Leonard placed a hand on Claude's shoulder. "I know you're thinking of Jane. So am I. But we can't be too impulsive right now. We can't give up what we've been working so hard for."

    Not long after Leonard and Claude let Yvonne go, Mark caught wind of the news. He furrowed his brows and looked at his subordinate, who had told him about the news. "Are you sure that Yvonne and the rest have safely boarded the flight?""Yes." His subordinate couldn't understand it either. "Claude stopped Ms. Y right by the hospital's entrance. He was getting really worked up. I thought they were going to even fight, but then … Leonard suddenly let them go. "There were too many people. I didn't dare to go close, so I didn't find out what they were saying."The subordinate lowered his head. "I'm sorry, I wouldn't bring any more news.""Forget about it." Mark supported his forehead with his hand and closed his eyes.Leonard was a scheming, sly fox. Since he had forced Claude back and insisted on letting Yvonne go this time, surely it was because there was profit to be made. But what could be worth Leonard going to this extent for?At that thought, Mark ordered coldly, "Keep

    The second she received the news, Yvonne rushed back to Hope Health Services.Once she got out of the car, she ran all the way to the emergency room, where she bumped into a doctor.Yvonne grabbed the doctor. "What's the situation inside?"The doctor shook his head. "The patient is barely going to make it. Her blood test results just came back. We found lots of theophylline in her system."Yvonne was bewildered. "Who gave her the drug?"Theophylline could lead to severe arrhythmia, which was absolutely fatal for Jade's weak and fragile heart! "Before Jim went into the emergency room, he had instructed a thorough check on the staff who were in charge of Jade's daily medication. We'll soon find out, but …"The doctor sighed. "She might not live to get an answer.""No." Yvonne looked at the emergency room with a burning determination, yet there was no hiding the sadness in her eyes.She had never thought that Jade might not even see Howard for the last time. The universe sure wa

    Six hours later, the heart transplant finished successfully. Jade was transferred to the ICU.In the emergency room, everyone said their goodbyes to Howard. Then, the nurse gently covered his body in a white shroud.At that moment, the fact that Howard had passed away properly hit Yvonne. She stumbled and instinctively grabbed onto the operating table to support herself.Jim immediately went to help her. He asked in concern, "Are you alright?"Yvonne shook her head. She sounded exhausted. "Please take Howard to the mortuary. Once Jade's condition gets better, we'll let her see him.""Hmm. I thought so too." Jim hesitated before asking, "How did Howard end up this way? Was it Leonard and Claude?""It was Mark." Yvonne grabbed the operating table harder, and her knuckles turned white. "He framed Howard."Jim was furious. "Mark is a monster! How did Howard offend him? How could he be so cruel?"Yvonne said in a deep voice, "I won't let Howard's death be in vain." She looked at

    Dr. Jackson was taken away, crying and wailing. His plea for mercy echoed down the corridors. Yet, Yvonne didn't even look once at him.She looked at Stephen. "Thank you.""No need to thank me," Stephen replied. After Yvonne had gone into the emergency room, he stood outside the door alone for a very long time. He hadn't been willing to wallow in his helplessness, so he had headed to check on the theophylline incident.After checking the staff's shift schedule and those who had taken a leave recently, Stephen had only approached Dr. Jackson to try his luck. When he had reached Dr. Jackson's house, he had never thought he would bump into the man panicking and frantically packing.Dr. Jackson had claimed that he was going on a holiday, but he hadn't looked one bit relaxed.Stephen had only pressed on a little before Dr. Jackson had knelt and confessed everything. He had even begged Stephen to let him off the hook.Stephen couldn't have been bothered to deal with him, so he had

Get the doctor!"Soon, the doctor and the nurses filled the ward. After a series of simple checkups, the doctor instructed Claude to let Jane rest well and pay attention to the stitches on her injuries.After the doctor left, Jane slowly came to her senses. "A-Am I still alive?""Of course!"Claude looked at Jane with tears welling up in his eyes. "Jane, you almost scared me half to death. If anything happened to you, what would I do?"Leonard went in closer. "Jane, tell Grandpa Leonard, how did you get hurt?"Claude was instantly displeased. He shoved Leonard aside. "Jane has just woken up. How could you remind her of such horrible memories?"Anyway, what if she could remember? Yvonne has taken the murderer away! You chose to let him go! Don't pretend that you care about Jane!"Jane was perp

    Seeing Mark walk closer to Jane, Claude stood up and stopped him. He barked, "What are you doing?"Mark raised the fruit basket in his hand. "I just want to put this thing down. You don't have to be so nervous, Claude. "Those who might not know any better might think that I was the one who hurt Ms. Ford."Mark looked at Jane as he said that. His seemingly friendly gaze had a hint of warning in it.Jane felt chills run down her back. This man was terrifying! No wonder Leonard and Claude had been so cautious of him for so many years!"Claude," Leonard called out. "Mark is kind enough to visit Jane. Don't be so unwelcoming.""He …" Was he that kind?Claude reluctantly stopped himself from saying what was on his mind. He reached out and accepted the fruit basket. "Thank you.""It's not a big deal." Mark looked at Leonard and said casually, "I don't think you two know about this yet, but Howard is dead."Leonard was stunned. "What?""Yvonne took Howard back to Hope Health Ser

    At Hope Health Services, Yvonne had no idea that the target was slowly being redirected at her.At that moment, she had just received news that Jade was coming around. She quickly headed to the ICU, with Stephen following behind her.When she entered the ward, she walked over to Jim and asked concernedly, "How is she doing?""Not bad."Jim looked at where Jade's heart was. His heart ached. The heart that had belonged to Howard was beating well.Although Howard had left, he was still protecting Jade.Yvonne followed Jim's gaze, sharing his sentiments. Her emotions overwhelmed her once more.She quietly clenched her fists. She turned to look at Jade and asked in a feigned relaxed tone, "Jade, how are you feeling?"Jade looked at Yvonne for a while. Her lips moved a little under the oxygen mask.She had just come out of a major surgery. She had been unconscious for a few days. At that moment, she had just gained a little consciousness, so her voice was so soft that it was almost

    Upon hearing that, Yvonne's intense guilt finally subsided. She remained silent for a while before looking at Stephen and smiling. "Thank you for the reminder."All this while, she had been rather emotional due to Howard's death. Luckily, Stephen could always remain sensible.First, he had discovered the mole and then silently stayed by her side. Right now, he was even reminding them not to wallow in self-blame.He was part of the group, yet also a calm observer. He was always ready to pull her back on track.Yvonne was thankful for him. She looked at him with a deep gaze. Jim noticed that and gently left. He was afraid he would interrupt them.After Jim left, Stephen went closer to Yvonne. He raised his hand and touched her face, gently rubbing her eye bags. "You should get some good rest."His voice was deep yet extremely tender. "You're about to go to war. You need to be mentally and physically ready. Otherwise, how are you going to win?"Yvonne touched his palm and smiled.

The entire Carrington family had been celebrating.They had doted on Mark and taken him wherever they went.That day, they had headed out. Before they'd known it, Mark had been taken away.Just when Daniel and Katherine had been on the brink of losing it, they had received a call from the kidnapper to bring the ransom to a specific spot.They had gotten the money and driven there without any hesitation. No one had thought that they would ever return after that. Even Mark had disappeared.When Agatha finished recounting this, her cup of tea had already cooled.She wiped her tears away.

Now that he'd heard the truth about Daniel and Katherine, he should have felt pain

    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

    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. 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

    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.
