The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1235 Huge Ego
At the restaurant, Otto chivalrously pulled out a chair for Yvonne.Yvonne looked at Otto as he took a seat opposite her. She asked curiously, "How did you and Kendrick become friends?""It's a long story. I met him on the battlefield. Back then, I went to a war-torn country to assist with medical relief, and he was there to—" Otto corrected himself in time and said, "To do some business."He continued, "The team I was leading was in a considerably safe place. No one expected that we would be ambushed one night. Kendrick was passing by, and he rescued us."Thinking back to the situation back then, Otto couldn't help but find it rather amusing. At that time, he had been so prejudiced against Kendrick and had even refused to accept Kendrick's help. In the end, Kendrick had knocked him out with his gun and taken him away.When he had finally come around, Kendrick had been sitting by his side, polishing his gun. The latter had even said coldly, "You might not weigh too much, but y

Yvonne and Otto were chatting away happily when they suddenly sensed a chilly air around them.Yvonne looked up to see Stephen's grim expression. She was just about to greet him when he walked up to her and took a seat next to her. He crossed his legs and looked at Otto domineeringly."Hello. I'm Stephen Anderson."Otto was clearly shocked by Stephen's arrogance. He was in a daze before his face finally broke out into a smile. "Hello. Otto Carrington.""Hmm?" Stephen raised an eyebrow. "What business are you in, Mr. Carrington? This is the first I've heard of you."Otto replied politely, "Just small businesses. It's normal that you've never heard of me."Stephen cleared his throat. "Mr. Carrington, you're being too modest. I know my woman well. She never goes for small businesses, nor forgets our date because of them."Yvonne was baffled.In an attempt to prevent the atmosphere from getting more awkward, she smiled and said, "Mr. Carrington is here on behalf of Carrington and
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1237 Any Last Words
Stephen led Yvonne to a Porsche Cayenne. He opened the door to reveal three men who had been tied up. Their mouths were gagged with a cloth. Since they couldn't speak, they could only express their defiance and rage through their eyes.Yvonne was in no rush to question them. She merely crossed her arms across her chest. "When did they start following me?""They haven't started," Stephen calmly replied."What?" Yvonne was a little confused. She turned to look at Stephen. "What do you mean?""I have men on Mark's side too." Stephen turned to the three men. "These three were instructed to follow you. The moment they landed here, we captured them."Yvonne rolled her eyes. "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you had men spying on Mark?""I prefer to attack head-on rather than waiting."Yvonne made a mental note to get used to Stephen's way of doing things first and asking for forgiveness later instead of asking for permission.Stephen looked at her. "There's another thing. My

"I …" The man was at a loss for words. He started sweating profusely."Let's do this instead." Yvonne said slowly, "List out your family members. I'll get people to take care of them. That way, you don't have to worry about them, and you can work for me without any distractions. I can fully trust you all too."The man was bewildered. He looked at Yvonne in a daze. He was at a loss for words.They all knew that Yvonne "taking care" of their family was actually a threat. The fact that she said it so nonchalantly terrified them.Seeing how the man wasn't replying to her, she said rather impatiently, "Don't test my patience. I don't have the time to waste with you."The man immediately came to his senses and said frantically, "Ms. Y, we'll do whatever you say!"The other two men nodded fervently in agreement as well.Yvonne was satisfied. "Alright. At least you guys are clever." Then, she instructed the subordinate in the car, "Note down their information. After making sure that

A week later, the news of Well Spring Pharma donating 50 million dollars' worth of medical supplies to Carrington and Hertz was published on their website.The vice president and the manager of the PR department attended the donation ceremony, which was streamed live. The process of the entire ceremony was open and known to the entire public.That day, many people watched the livestream."Now that the old CEO of Well Spring Pharma is dead, are the staff trying to sell the company off? Which kind-hearted soul among the upper management decided to donate such a huge amount?""Chuck Jensen is the scum of the earth. Even the money that he earned was dirty. Donating it away is doing a good thing!""Maybe the PR department thinks of it that way too. They're doing charity work to show the public that they care. That way, they can draw a line between them and Chuck Jensen too."The comments online were heated. Most of them thought that the donation was a good thing. Of course, some looke
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1240 Wild Ambition
The donation ceremony brought nothing but good to Well Spring Pharma.The executives expressed their admiration for Yvonne. She managed to get such a great partnership with Carrington and Hertz at such a crucial moment. It had completely saved the company.The company's employees' skepticism also died down.That day, after the meeting, Yvonne was still discussing with Rory when she heard someone ask, "Ms. Miller, are you free to talk for a while?"Yvonne looked up. "Mr. Leech, how can I help you?""No. I just wanted to talk to you about something." Anthony Leech, the vice president, said with a smile, "Carrington and Hertz has done Well Spring Pharma such a huge favor this time. We should probably treat them to a meal."He continued, "You took part in the entire drafting of the agreement this time. So I haven't met with the person in charge of Carrington and Hertz. I'm the vice president of Well Spring Pharma. Shouldn't I thank them too?"Yvonne looked at Anthony for a little
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1241 My Thank-You Gift
During dinner that night, Yvonne told Stephen about Anthony.Stephen thought about it for a while. "Almost half of the executives of Well Spring Pharma left. Do you want to hire a batch of new people to help you keep an eye on Anthony Leech?""I thought about that too." Yvonne supported her chin with her hand. She looked at Stephen with a smile. "From what I know, the Anderson Group has a strict hiring process. If Well Spring Pharma were to recruit by Anderson Group's standards, surely we would be able to recruit a bunch of great people, right?"Stephen looked at her. "Ms. Miller, are you eyeing Anderson Group's talent pool?"Yvonne chuckled. "You know me well, Mr. Anderson."Stephen looked at her dotingly. "Sure, I'll send over a group of trustworthy people to Well Spring Pharma.""Thank you, Mr. Anderson!"Yvonne was elated. She fed Stephen a piece of steak. "This is my thank-you gift."Stephen looked at Yvonne, who was smiling at him. His heart fluttered. He opened his m
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1242 How Humiliating
When she heard him, Yvonne placed her work down and looked at Anthony. "What could be so urgent that you even forgot your manners?"Anthony stopped. He thought about the new recruits and got infuriated once more."Let's not care about manners first. I would like an explanation from you as to what our basic operating procedures for the company are now."His expression darkened. He questioned, "How could you decide to recruit in large quantities to fill executive vacancies without holding a meeting?""We're running out of time, and we're in dire need of talent. If we run the so-called operating procedure that you mentioned, will Well Spring Pharma be back up and running in no time?" Yvonne calmly asked and leaned back in her chair.She looked at Anthony. "Of course, if you have any better ideas, I'm open to suggestions."Anthony was at a loss for words. Obviously, he couldn't openly say that he was unhappy because he suspected Yvonne was planting moles to keep an eye on him!"I kn

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
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 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

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.
