The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1427 They’ve Gone Mad
Yvonne couldn't remember if she had fallen asleep on the couch that night.When she woke up the next morning, she was in bed. Her entire body was sore, and there was no one next to her anymore.She went into the bathroom to wash up. When she looked at herself in the mirror, she finally recalled how intense the night before had been.The marks around her neck were Stephen's doing.Yvonne gritted her teeth and cursed Stephen in her head. She should have known that a capitalist like him would never do a good deed for free!After taking a shower, Yvonne went to her closet and picked out a high-collar dress that would cover her neck.She still had a dinner to attend that night. She didn't want her private life to become a topic of gossip for others.At that thought, her resentment grew more intense. That bastard! He knew that she had to meet people that day. Why couldn't he have been more gentle?At that moment, there was a knock on the door.Yvonne thought that it was Stephen. She
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1428 Everyone's Finished
That evening, Yvonne wore a plain, high-collared gown for dinner. Compared to her extragavant look the day before, she looked much more gentle that night.However, her makeup was more eye-catching and detailed. She had put on a strikingly red lipstick, which made her look somewhat demure yet seductive. She looked even more powerful.Only Yvonne would be able to pull off two contrasting temperaments at the same time. She was dazzling.Yvonne held Stephen's arm and entered the venue. She seemed to sense his gaze on her neck. She was unhappy about it and secretly pinched him.Then, she heard a chuckle coming from next to her.That bastard must have done it on purpose! She glared at Stephen.When she saw guests coming up to her from the corner of her eyes, she held back her temper and smiled at the guests.Nearby, Calbert was standing next to Otto. He said, "Stop looking. No matter how great Yvonne is, she only has eyes for Stephen."Otto retracted his gaze and said nothing. He dow
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1429 Trying Means Death
"W-What is going on? W-Who are these people?""Are we going to die here?"The guests gathered in a group. They were terrified. Some tried to persuade the group of men."How much money do you want? We can give it to you! Why do you need to die together?""Yes, we have money. As long as you let us go, we'll give you whatever you want once we get off the ship!""We have no grudges against you. You don't have to drag us to our deaths with you!"The leader of the group of men became annoyed. He waved the detonator in the air. "If you don't shut up, I'll send you all to hell right away!"His threat was effective. The guests shut up immediately.The man looked at Yvonne once more, feeling smug. "Ms. Y, you gave a wonderful speech just now. Now that you know you're about to die, do you have any last words?""Since everyone is about to die, then answer me this." Yvonne had no trace of fear on her face. "Who sent you?""Sure, you're all going to die anyway, so I'll answer you." The man
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1430 No Glory Without Risk
To everyone's surprise, no bombs went off!A group of men in black appeared and apprehended Mark's and Cory's men in a short time, pinning them to the ground.All the guests were baffled by this scene. What was going on?Calbert came out and stepped on the crazy man's back. The latter was in so much pain that he wailed."Everyone, don't panic." Calbert said coldly, "We have already dismantled all the bombs on the ship. Nothing will go off."The man beneath Calbert's foot roared, "I'm going to kill all of you!" He tried to resist, but Calbert kicked him right in the head. Blood spluttered everywhere. The man was finally quiet.The guests quieted down too, as if they had also received his kick. Calbert looked at the blood on his shoes and furrowed his brows in disgust. Then, he wiped them on the man's shirt.He did everything so casually, as if his shoes had gotten wet in the rain.He didn't need to introduce himself. The guests immediately knew that he wasn't someone to be mes
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1431 Mark Is That Child
"It's a long story." Yvonne turned around and placed her hands on the railing. She fiddled with the detonator distractedly.She'd had quite a lot to drink that night. At that moment, she felt a little hot. It was rare for her to have the urge to talk about her feelings."Mark has a grudge against the Miller family. I guess it started with my grandfather. My father married into the family and took my mother's name. So when I say grandfather, I mean my maternal one."Yvonne explained simply before chuckling self-deprecatingly. "This entire thing is quite absurd. My grandfather had an affair with a college girl. He kept the affair under wraps really well. He was a great father and a grandfather."She continued, "The college girl looked a lot like my late grandmother, but that wasn't an excuse for the affair. He had committed an unforgivable mistake."Yvonne was a little agitated.Otto felt a little sorry. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have—""It's fine." Yvonne waved her hand. "I'm ju
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1432 You Still Think You're Right
Yvonne turned to look and smiled. "You're here."Stephen walked over to her. He subtly cast Otto a cold gaze. The night breeze was chilly, but his gaze was frosty.Otto sneered inwardly. He took a step back and bade Yvonne farewell. "Thank you for telling me all of that, Ms. Miller. Now that Mr. Anderson is here, I won't be in your way.""Okay." Yvonne looked at Otto leaving. Suddenly, a hand was right in front of her eyes.Yvonne couldn't help but chuckle. She looked at Stephen. "What? Can't I even look at a man's back?""What were you two talking about?" Stephen asked coldly."Mr. Carrington was here to pass me something." Yvonne waved the detonator in her hand. "Calbert took this from one of the men. Apparently, there's still a bomb here that we haven't found yet."Stephen furrowed his brows.Yvonne leaned against the railing. "Luckily, I wasn't that arrogant to get them to set off all the detonators. If not, we would have been done for."Seeing how lightly she was taking
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1433 More Tricks up Her Sleeve
The next morning, everyone arrived at the meeting room early.After the incident the night before, they were still worried. The atmosphere in the meeting room was much heavier than usual.As they waited in silence, the door slowly opened.Yvonne entered in her high heels. She naturally took a seat at the head of the table. She said with a light smile, "You're all here early.""Ms. Y, such a dangerous thing happened last night. Everyone is still traumatized by it. I don't think any of us want to be on board much longer."A middle-aged man suggested, "I think we should finish the meeting quickly and get off this ship as soon as possible."The others chimed in, agreeing, "Yes, I think so too.""I didn't sleep well the entire night. I kept having nightmares! I don't want to stay on board this ship any longer.""Me too! Who knows what other crazy things Mark might be up to?"Yvonne raised her hand to silence the crowd. "Since everyone is worried, I won't force you to stay. We'll do
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1434 Yvonne's Territory
"Not long ago, Carrington Ventures reached out to Claude's businesses at Ms. Miller's request. Many people in charge of those companies have expressed a strong desire to collaborate."Otto cut right to the chase. "This is the contract all of them have signed. You can all have a look at it. If you have any objections, please feel free to raise them."Then, Otto gave his assistants a look.Soon, a copy of the contract was handed to each of Emerald Group's executives.The executives looked at the contract. As they read it, their expressions turned uglier.The contract clearly stated that the persons in charge would hand over the management of the companies to Yvonne. Moreover, the company's future development and capital operations would be taken over by Carrington Ventures.It was obvious that Carrington Ventures had extended an olive branch to all of them and had them side with Yvonne.Only now that everything was finalized did they realize that Yvonne had just been stalling at

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
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1677 He Won't Take it to Heart
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 Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1675 Let Otto Have Yvonne for a While
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
The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1671 We Meet Again
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.
