"You've crossed a line!" Neil slapped the side of the bed, reprimanding Jane.

Jane jumped. She only dared to mutter softly, "Uncle Neil, weren't you going to help me?"

Neil ignored her. He looked at Yvonne, a little calmer this time. "Ms. Miller, I’m sorry. If I hadn't asked you about it, I wouldn't have known that Jane had done such a terrible thing to that girl in the past.

"If there is a chance in the future, I'll get Jane to apologize to her."

Yvonne refused without a change in her expression. "No need. I don't think Jade would want to see her."

"Now that we have laid everything out, we're clear that none of us bear any ill will. Why don't you—"

"It is indeed clear."

Neil was a little stunned at Yvonne's response. He looked at her, stumped.

"Mr. Foster, you clearly called me over to seek justice for Ms. Ford and get me to send Jade away. Since you had already thought about that from the beginning, it proves that you are still on guard. You don't trust me."

Yvonne stood up

    "More or less. I've already gotten the list of names. I'll organize them and send them to you later. We'll be able to use it when the time comes."Yvonne's goal for this trip hadn't only been to visit Neil but also to understand the metal business better. That way, she could better utilize her resources in the future.Besides, when she had decided to get into the metal business, she hadn't been planning to settle just for that little bit. She also wanted Mark's portion of the metal business.Of course, that was all for a later time.Yvonne walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked out at the city's skyline at night. "I didn't plan on leaving this early, but Jane has targeted us. If I don't leave, she will try to drive a wedge between Neil and me. I don't want any further problems right now. I can't be bothered to deal with her either."Yvonne yawned lazily. "I want to go back earlier so I can spend more time with Elvin. I haven't seen him in a long time.""Hmm, it's

    At the hospital, Kai timidly handed the documents to Neil."Mr. Foster, Ms. Miller asked me to hand this to you. She handed over all her duties today."Neil threw the stack of documents to the floor.He berated Kai, "Didn't I ask you to make her stay? Now you're telling me she has already handed over her duties. How useless can you be?"Kai lowered his head. "I-I tried to persuade her, but she was insistent on leaving. She said she didn't want to come between you and Ms. Ford."At that moment, the door to the room opened. Jane entered with an exquisite-looking lunchbox. She said with a smile, "Uncle Neil, if Yvonne wants to leave, let her go. You don't have to beg her to stay."Neil's gaze darkened. "Why are you here?""I'm the only one who cares for you." Jane went over to the side of the bed. She placed the lunchbox by the nightstand. "Uncle Neil, I've really thought about it. If I really lost my temper at you, I would have fallen into Yvonne's trap. She—""Shut up!" Neil

    Yvonne and Jade took the same flight back to Hope Health Services. As they came out of the arrival terminal, Yvonne spotted a sign with a rather bad drawing on it.If it hadn't been for her name on the sign, she wouldn't have been able to recognize that the stick figure of a woman on the drawing was her.Britney was clearly happy with her drawing. She had made Stephen carry her in her arms so that Yvonne would notice the sign immediately.When she spotted Yvonne, she waved the sign excitedly, almost hitting Stephen squarely in the face a few times.Yvonne was amused by this scene. She quickened her steps and went up to them. She took the sign and asked, "Britney, did you draw this?""Yes!" Then, Britney shook her head and pointed at Elvin, who was standing next to Stephen. "El drew it too!""I have nothing to do with that ugly painting," Elvin flatly denied.Yvonne naturally believed Britney more. She took the sign and bent down. She asked Elvin, "Babe, which part did you draw

    That night, after Yvonne tucked Elvin in bed, she heard someone knock on the door.She gently got down from the bed.She opened the door to see Jade standing nervously in the corridor. Yvonne was curious. "What is it?""Is El asleep?" Jade asked."He just fell asleep." Yvonne took a step out of the room and closed the door behind her. "We can talk in the living room.""Okay." Jade nodded. She followed Yvonne downstairs.Yvonne went to the kitchen and poured two glasses of water. She passed one to Jade. "You must be exhausted after playing with the children today.""It was alright. Britney is adorable, and El is …" Jade racked her brain for an apt way to describe him. She found out that nothing could describe the feeling that Elvin gave her.Elvin was such a special child. He was like a miniature version of Stephen."El would surely grow up to become an amazing person like Mr. Anderson," Jade said seriously.Yvonne chuckled. "That would be worrying. Having two Stephens in my

    For the next few days, Jade showed her gratitude by spending more time with Britney and Elvin.In the evening, they were all in the garden. A chill breeze signaled that winter was coming. Yvonne and Stephen sat on a bench, watching Jade play with the children further away.Compared to the aloof Elvin, Jade seemed more like a child. She would lead Britney along and tease Elvin from time to time. Their laughter echoed throughout the entire garden.Under the sunset, Jade's smile was as bright as the sun.Yvonne couldn't help but sigh. "Howard really took great care of Jade. She has such a pure smile, even at her age."Stephen hummed before saying, "I heard from Old Jim that she has decided to study.""Yes." Yvonne smiled apologetically. "I forgot to tell you about that. Since I've just returned to Hope, there are too many things for me to deal with.""It's fine." Stephen didn't take it to heart. "It's good that Jade managed to come to terms with it on her own."Yvonne nodded.

    Leonard entered the study and looked at Claude sternly. "I overheard everything you said. By calling Neil right now, are you trying to blow things out of proportion or trying to get yourself a few more enemies?""Leonard, Neil is clearly siding with Yvonne! Are you asking me to just stand down and ignore this? I can't do that!"Claude was just about to take his phone out when Leonard stopped him. "You can already see that Neil is siding with Yvonne. Is there a need to call him? What good will it do you to argue with Neil?"Leonard glared at Claude. "Think about our situation right now. If we offend another person, that is one more risk we have to take. Don't let emotions cloud your judgment.""But …" Jane chimed in reluctantly. "Grandpa Leonard, are you saying I have to just swallow this bitter pill of indignation? Uncle Neil was really mean! He—""I know he has crossed a line this time, but everyone is too worked up right now. A phone call will only add fuel to the fire. Not on

    Half a month later, Neil was in a wheelchair, about to leave the hospital.When Kai returned to the ward after paying the bills, he looked a little awkward. Neil was just about to ask him what was going on when he saw Claude, Leonard, and Jane behind him.Jane reluctantly presented Neil with a bouquet. "Uncle Neil, congratulations on getting discharged."Neil looked at her before looking at Leonard and Claude. "Are you two here to seek justice for Jane?""Neil—"Leonard cleared his throat to stop Claude from flaring up."Mr. Foster, you're getting discharged today. It's a great day. We're here to celebrate with you and treat you to a meal," Leonard said politely.Neil was silent. He looked at Leonard for a while and calmed down a little. "Well, I can't say no to that, can I?"Leonard smiled. "You won't regret it."Just like that, they left the hospital together and headed to the restaurant that Leonard had booked beforehand.As they got seated, a feast was served, along with

    Once Yvonne answered the call, Neil calmly said, "Ms. Miller, I've been discharged from the hospital.""Congratulations," Yvonne replied. She continued signing some documents."I just met with Leonard, Claude, and Jane."Yvonne paused a little. "What?""Because of Jade's incident, I lost my temper with Jane. She couldn't take it, so she went to complain about me to Claude."Neil chuckled. He looked like a completely different person from when he had been in the room with Leonard, Claude, and Jane a moment ago.He continued, "That girl has been spoiled rotten since she was young. She's too selfish. I won't let her go off the hook that easily this time since she offended you. No matter what, I'll teach her a lesson."Yvonne put her pen down and leaned back in thought. "Mr. Foster, you don't have to do this for me. In fact—""No, no." Neil was serious. "I didn't deal with this matter properly, so I should bear the responsibility. I should apologize to you as well."At that poin

    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.
