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!

    After dealing with Well Spring Pharma, Yvonne and Stephen returned to Hope Health Services.Before the plane took off, Yvonne received an agreement from Neil via email. She opened the file to have a look before passing it to Stephen.She explained, "I handed all the resources that Leonard gave me to Neil so he could handle them. The draft I made was a 50-50 split, but Neil changed it to 30-70. I never thought he would be this honest in business.""Hmm," Stephen responded. He looked through the agreement. "Given Neil's current position, profit isn't that important to him anymore. He's most likely thinking of using your power to suppress Mark's power in the metal business."Stephen added, "If he wants to maintain a long-term collaboration with you, he has to give you this little profit. There's no need to suffer a great loss just by trying to save a little."Stephen slowly came to a conclusion. "It looks like Neil has fully accepted you now."Yvonne slowly raised an eyebrow. "I c

    That night, Jade slowly opened her eyes. The pain on her forehead was so excruciating that she gasped. "Ouch …""You had 12 stitches on your forehead. Don't move." Jade turned to look. Her eyes instantly sparkled. "Yvonne, you're really back!""If I hadn't returned any sooner, you would have starved yourself to death in your room." Yvonne noticed that the IV drip was almost finished. She got up to change a different bottle. She said curtly, "Your body can't take such torment. You probably would have died before you even managed to get your revenge. Don't you think it isn't worth it?""I …" Jade pursed her lips, feeling aggrieved. "I thought you didn't want to take me along. Also … I was afraid that something had happened to you.""What could happen to me?" Yvonne sat back down on the chair. She looked at Jade seriously and said, "You can't rush revenge. I need to slowly plan it out too, to ensure that there will be no mistakes."Jade didn't seem to understand. "You weren

    The next day, Jade went to look for Yvonne. She agreed to go to school in the spring, but before that, Yvonne had to take her along wherever she went.Jade was clearly still a little resentful. After giving Yvonne an answer, she left the latter's office without saying anything else.As the door closed, Yvonne looked at Stephen. "Do you think it's too late for me to back out?""Yes." Stephen smiled as if reveling in Yvonne's misfortune. Yvonne was a little depressed. "I never thought that she would be so hard to coax. I guess I can only take her with me for now. I'll talk to her again when I have the chance.""Hmm …" Stephen pondered for a while. "Elvin and Britney are about to have their winter break. Why don't we get them over and let Jade look after them? Consider it a chance for her to help you too."Yvonne's eyes brightened instantly. "You're right! No wonder you're the great Mr. Anderson. What a smart idea!""I'm going back in a few days. When I return, I can bring them

    The plane landed safely. Once they left the airport, Yvonne led Jade to the hospital, where Neil was. It was a high-end private hospital. Neil was in the VIP ward. Ever since he had checked in, there had been a group of paramedics around him.He was already annoyed that he had been set up by Mark. Seeing the people surrounding him all day long for the past two days irritated him further.Yvonne had just arrived outside his ward when she heard Neil rebuking the caretaker. "Do you know what the hell you are doing or not? If you don't know what you're doing, you can just leave!"Soon, a caretaker exited his ward with her head lowered.Yvonne entered and said, "Mr. Foster, you just had surgery. You should try to stay calm."Neil looked over. He was surprised. "Why are you here?""Mark gave me a call on the day of your accident." Yvonne went in closer to him. "He wasn't just trying to teach you a lesson. He was also reminding me not to cross him."Neil was infuriated. He raised

    Yvonne smiled in relief. "I'm here. Why are you so worried? The most important thing right now is for you to get better. You have a group of subordinates that you need to feed."Neil sighed. "Before I get discharged, I really need your help to look after my business. I'm worried that Mark will take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.""Even if you hadn't brought it up, I would still help you. After all, I'm part of this business. If Mark really destroys it, I'll lose out a lot."Neil was relieved, seeing how understanding Yvonne was. He looked at her with more respect and admiration."Ms. Miller, I should have worked with you earlier." Thinking about how he had treated Yvonne at first, Neil felt a little apologetic. "I was narrow-minded, thinking that you women would be less courageous than men."He continued. "I never would have thought that after the accident, you would be bold enough to visit me right away …"Neil smiled bitterly and shook his head. "An old man li

    Yvonne stood up. "What's going on?""I don't know how the news of Mr. Foster's accident got out. A few buyers are here to have their orders canceled. They said that now that the company is without its leader, if there are any problems or delays with the delivery, it would affect their businesses."Kai finished explaining only to see Yvonne walking straight out of the office with a frosty expression. He quickly followed along.Jade had just finished pouring the water. Before she could place it on Yvonne's desk, she saw the two of them leaving the office. She quickly placed the glass down and chased after them.Outside, the buyers were still yelling, "This isn't up for discussion! We're here to cancel our orders today!""Sure, you can cancel your orders." A calm woman's voice silenced everyone there.Kai paved the way for Yvonne. The staff members retreated to the side as they saw Yvonne confidently walking over to the buyers in her high heels.The leader of the buyers came to h

    "N-No." The man felt embarrassed. He was at a loss for words. The other buyers behind him could no longer bear to watch him get humiliated. They immediately said, "We won't cancel our orders!""Ms. Miller, don't take this to heart! We'll leave right away!"Then, they nudged each other to leave. Someone even pulled the man away.The man went along with them. He had just left with his head hung low when he heard Yvonne's voice ring out."Everyone here is a businessperson. Trusting your partners is the most basic thing. Don't let anyone encourage you to do anything that would hurt your business."Yvonne continued, "Since all of you chose to trust us today, we won't let you down. I promise you that we will deliver on time."Then, Yvonne got Kai to send them off.The man looked at Yvonne as she walked off. His face paled a little. Had her words been aimed at him? Had she noticed something?…Entering the office, Jade went up to Yvonne and said excitedly, "Yvonne, you were amazing

    Soon, a concerned face appeared right in front of Neil."Uncle Neil, are you alright? I heard that you got into an accident! You almost scared me to death!"Neil looked at Jane and frowned. "How did you know that I had gotten into an accident?""Grandpa told me about it. He can't leave at the moment, so he got me to come and visit you."Jane looked at Neil, who was covered in injuries. She felt sorry for him. "Uncle Neil, you must be in pain. How did the accident happen?"Neil remained silent. He gave Kai a look, asking him to check who on earth had leaked the news.Kai understood immediately and left the room.Once the door was closed, Neil said slowly, "The injuries look scary, but I'm not really hurt. I'll be fine after recovering for a while. You can go home and tell Claude. Don't let him worry."Jane nodded. "Luckily, you're fine. It really is terrifying. Why don't I stay back to care for you for a while? I'll feel better once you can leave the bed and walk around."Neil

    A light breeze blew by in the courtyard. Agatha slowly recounted the past.Back then, Daniel and his wife, Katherine, had just had Mark. 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. She said through a catch in her throat, "Katherine was hugging the bag of money tightly until the moment she passed away, as though she were hugging you."Mark furrowed his brows. 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.
