Yvonne walked over to Stephen; he was holding out the deed to Miller Villa.

Yvonne stared at it for a long time without taking it.

Stephen was confused. "What? You don't want it?"

Yvonne shook her head. "Ever since returning to Northerna City, I've only stayed one night there. It's no longer how I remembered it to be." Although the place was kept clean, she still felt dirty being there.

"Leave it. Perhaps there might be a use for it in the future." Yvonne accepted the deed, thinking that if Miller Jewels really needed the money, she could still sell the mansion. If it really came to that, she wondered if her grandfather and mother in heaven would call her a failure.

Yvonne secretly sighed before looking up at Stephen. "Katie wanted to give me this, but she went to Anderson Group instead?"

"She said she was afraid you would be unhappy to see her, so she got me to pass it on to you," Stephen said honestly.

Yvonne was amused. "And you believe this nonsense?"

No. I've seen many wom

    Katie furrowed her brows. Kayla, that useless piece of trash, wanted to get into QT?Monica couldn't wait for Katie's answer and continued, "Kayla is going to marry into the Robinson family in the future. As her family, we should help her as much as we can, right?"Then she looked at Katie eagerly and said, "Katie, I'm sure you don't want Kayla's in-laws to look down on her, right? If you help Kayla out this time, she'll be able to help you in the future. Sisters should help each other out."Hearing that, Katie swallowed down the rejection she'd been about to express."Mom, you're right. I only have Kayla. How could I not help her out?" She paused before saying, "But I remember Kayla didn't study jewelry design, right?""You're right; she doesn't have the educational background, but she's been with your father and I for so many years. I'm sure she would've learned a thing or two during that time." Monica held Katie's hand. "As long as you agree to put in a word for her, I'll let K

    Peter's assistant welcomed Yvonne with a smile as she got out of the car. "Ms. Y, Mr. Bowie's been in a terrible mood for the past few days. He finally smiled when he found out you were coming. But I'm sure you know his temper, and he's probably going to pretend not to care in front of you," he warned before leading Yvonne into the mansion.Peter had been watching the two enter the mansion from his floor-to-ceiling windows. He hadn't seen Yvonne in a long time. He'd always been waiting for her to cave in, but he'd never expected her to be even more stubborn than him!Peter was just lamenting about it when he heard Yvonne call out to him. "Mr. Bowie!"He stiffened and pursed his smiling lips hard, forcing down the smile as he looked at Yvonne with a stern face. He scoffed curtly.Yvonne smiled and approached him. "Are you still mad at me? It's been so long! Why are you still so petty?""Me? Petty?" Peter's eyes widened. "Back then, I'd already informed the higher-ups that I'd bring

    After entering Peter's mansion, Katie handed her gifts to the servants, who'd notified her that Peter was working on his perfume in his studio.She gently stepped into the studio, walking over to Peter. "Mr. Peter, are you—""Wait for me to finish." Peter didn't even look up. He waved his hand, asking Katie to step backward.Katie took a few steps back. After sizing up her surroundings, her gaze fell on Peter once more. Peter was one of the oldest staff members in Muguet. His authority was only second to that of the big boss.In the early years, Peter had created a few of Muguet's most famous perfumes. The other executives had been researching marketing, and he was the only one who'd focused on perfumery.Some of the people in the office had privately said that he was an arrogant person and very hard to work with, so no one wanted to make friends with him.Katie finally realized it at that moment. This was her first time meeting Peter after returning to the country. She didn't kn

    When Yvonne received news of the stock prices rising, her first thought was Stephen. After all, Stephen was the only one foolish enough to waste his limitless funds; no one else would do such a thing at this moment.Yvonne returned to Oceania Villa and headed directly for the study room. She pushed the door open and asked, "Why are you doing this?"Stephen placed his book down and looked at Yvonne. "Is there a problem?"If Miller Jewels stock prices hadn't gone back up, even the influence of public opinion alone could cause huge cancellations of pre-orders.Then who the hell would go to see the product launch? Stephen leaned back and said relaxedly, "If I hadn't saved the stock prices, you would be looking at the calendar and choosing the dates to close up shop. Or are you saying that, besides my solution, you have other ideas?"Yvonne was struck dumb and had no comeback. Since the morning of the stock price's nosedive, she'd been in the meeting room for an emergency meeting wit

    At Oceania Villa, Yvonne had just taken a shower and was lying in bed, video-calling Rachel as she put a mask on.Rachel was bored on set, so she was knitting a sweater while chatting with Yvonne. Yvonne found it interesting. "Why are you knitting a sweater on such a hot day?""This is a gift for Dexter!" Rachel showed Yvonne the sweater. "I'm missing a hem, and it'll be done! How is it? Does it look nice?"Yvonne looked at it closely before commenting objectively, "The collar could be wider, the length of the sleeves could be more uniform, and if the color could be more—""Okay, okay. If you continue, I'll have to undo everything and redo it once more." Rachel hugged the sweater happily. "It’s the thought that counts. You won't know anything about it. By the way, have you prepared a Valentine's Day gift? What does Stephen want? I'm sure you must be stumped on what to give him, right?"The moment she finished her question, Rachel saw a perplexed look on Yvonne's face. It looked as

    At Anderson Group Tower, Katie had tried every means to get in before she finally managed to get a chance to see Stephen.The moment she entered his office, she saw him sitting on the couch. Outside the window, the sunset cast a glow on the bustling city, as if they were all bowing before Stephen, making him look authoritative.Katie's heart was beating wildly, and she stood still.Stephen furrowed his brows in displeasure, causing Katie to come to her senses. She frantically walked over to the one-seater couch next to Stephen and sat down. Then she handed Stephen the collaboration project proposal with both hands."This is the situation of Muguet's sales in the country, as well as collaborations with hotels—""I can read for myself." Stephen took the proposal and flipped through it, clearly not willing to talk to her.Katie smiled awkwardly and patiently waited for him to finish reading. Stephen skimmed through it. Within five minutes, he'd flipped to the last page. Katie took

    Although it was a working day on Wednesday, the atmosphere was thick with romance.All these years, Yvonne had been alone; she'd never thought much about special occasions and was even quite against romantic traditions.However, ever since she'd woken up today, she'd been looking forward to it. Upon closer reflection, perhaps it was because this was her first time celebrating Valentine's Day.She got off work on time that day. At the parking lot, she casually placed her gift on the passenger seat before sending a message to Stephen.Last night, she'd already arranged to have dinner with Stephen at 7.30 pm today. They'd agreed that she would pick the restaurant. Stephen had been very accommodating and only told her to send him the address before she left for the restaurant.Yvonne had asked her assistant to look for the most luxurious restaurant. She was prepared to lose money that night.She sent the location to Stephen, and he soon replied, "Okay."On the other hand, at Anderso

Xavier understood what she was trying to do, but he didn't stop her.Up until that day, he would still fume in rage at the thought of the hickey on Yvonne's neck when he'd gone to see her at Oceania Villa after his engagement.After that day, he'd promised his grandfather to marry Kayla, denying that he'd ever been interested in Yvonne.However, seeing the two of them there that day, he couldn't help but think about her once more. He never would have thought that Yvonne would make him miss her for that long.In the ladies' room, Yvonne was by the sink, watching Kayla in the mirror as she approached her."Who would have thought that you had it in you?" Kayla looked at Yvonne through the mirror and smiled condescendingly, saying, "With your ugly looks, you could still bag a man. Look at how slutty you're dressed. You're cle

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.

    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.

    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.
