The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1630 I’ll Advise You to Reconsider
While they entered the headquarters' cafeteria, they bumped into many of Emerald Group's members. All of them only greeted Garrett and Stephen.Yvonne's head was wrapped in her silk scarf once again. She secretly sized everyone up.In half a year, Emerald Group had gotten a lot of new faces. Yvonne had heard from Otto before that Stephen had injected fresh blood into the Group. He had even changed their business model.Emerald Group, which had once been along the blurred lines of legality, had become much cleaner and more legitimate in their business dealings.Thanks to that, their influence had become stronger, and their businesses expanded a lot, too.It was exactly what Yvonne had wanted to do. She hadn't wanted people who joined Emerald Group to sacrifice their lives for the organization. She had wanted everyone to work hard in unity to manage the Group better. She had wanted every person who wandered to the Emerald Group to find a sense of belonging. Yet, before she could

After listening to what Garrett said, Yvonne gave Stephen a glance. He was a natural-born capitalist. He was great at buying people off.Stephen had just finished his tea. He placed the teacup down and looked at Garrett. "Emerald Group has always belonged to her. I was only taking it on temporarily during the past six months.""Mr. Anderson, you can't say that. Everyone respects you a lot. If you really give up, there will be internal conflict. Even if you hand it over to Ms. Y at that point, it will be hard to manage it."Halfway through, Garrett looked at Yvonne apologetically. "Ms. Y. I'm not saying that you aren't capable. It's just that everyone has strong opinions about this. They surely won't be able to come to terms with it immediately. I'm just worried that it will be hard for you."Yvonne looked at the two of them. She could vaguely sense a hint of a conspiracy going on."Okay, then, tell me what I should do," Yvonne said.Garrett immediately chuckled nervously. "How

"I got married to her." Stephen looked at Garrett and said distractedly, "What's mine is hers. Not to mention the fact that Emerald Group has always belonged to her."Garrett's mind blanked immediately. He was in a daze for a while before he finally managed to speak."Mr. Anderson, you should have told me earlier! I was trying so hard to help you keep control of the Group. It turns out that I was just making a fool of myself!"I really don't understand you two. You were acting so strangely this entire time. I thought you were against Ms. Y taking back the Group! But it seems that it was just a trick!"Garrett almost lost it. He said bitterly, "Please don't take what I said to you to heart. Also, please don't tell Ms. Y about it. We will still recognize her as your wife."Stephen reached out to pat Garrett on the shoulder. "You did well just now. I'm really happy."Garrett was perplexed.What the hell did Stephen mean? Had he intentionally become part of Stephen's plan? How rude

By the time Yvonne finished drinking her beer, she had pretty much said everything that had been on her mind. She looked at Stephen, her eyes rather glassy thanks to the alcohol. She looked gorgeous.Stephen's breath caught, and his gaze darkened a little.Yvonne smiled and said seriously, "No matter what, thank you. You've turned the Group into my dream version of it."For a long time, Stephen said nothing. He merely looked at Yvonne intently.The room fell into silence.Yvonne felt a little uneasy. She feigned a casual tone and said, "Alright. I've already said what I wanted to say. It's late. You should rest."Then, she threw the bottle into the bin from a distance with a perfect arc.Stephen looked away as Yvonne left the room and turned to face the window once more.He raised his bottle as if raising a glass to Emerald Group, and then he downed the rest of his beer.…Two days later, Emerald Group had a board meeting at Yvonne's request.Garrett knew Yvonne's true ide

"What you said is also what I want." Yvonne smiled and said slowly, "I don't want Emerald Group to revert to its old ways. The current situation is great. It'll only get better."I'm really happy to see the changes Mr. Anderson has made to the Group." She chuckled and added, "You're right. This seat should be for Mr. Anderson. I've just returned, so I haven't gotten used to it yet."Then, Yvonne took a step aside to make way for Stephen.But the next second, Stephen put his hands on her shoulders. Before she could react, he pressed her down onto the main seat.He stood next to Yvonne and swept a glance across all the executives' faces. "I had only stepped in to take care of things on her behalf for the last six months. Now that she has returned, it's only logical that she should manage the Group."I can assure all of you that Ms. Y is much more suitable to run the Group. Her passion for it is as great as all of yours."His tone was firm and serious.The room suddenly fell

As a result of Stephen's sudden announcement about his marriage, the meeting was adjourned before it had even begun.All the executives needed time to process the news. Even Yvonne needed time to get used to Stephen's sudden, unwarranted announcement.The moment they entered the office, Yvonne looked at Stephen in dismay. "Mr. Anderson, I'm really grateful to you for speaking on my behalf, but couldn't you have given me a heads-up beforehand? At least let me be mentally prepared."Stephen distractedly replied, "I'll pay attention to it the next time.""There is no next time!" Yvonne almost lost her temper. "Soon, this news will be spread through the entire Group. They will all know that I'm your…"Wife.Yvonne found it awkward to say the word out loud.She ground her teeth in fury. "Forget about it! It's pointless to cry over spilled milk right now."At that moment, a knock on the door interrupted their conversation.Yvonne walked past Stephen to open the door, only to see s

"To Beck and Call. I want to follow Calbert and look for Mark!"After Yvonne had gotten into the accident, Lloyd had asked Stephen if he could join Call and Beck. Stephen had been finding excuses to delay it, and Lloyd had waited patiently until that moment.Now that Yvonne had returned and he had also finished the mission Stephen had assigned him, it was time to get down to the real business.Seeing Stephen not say anything, Lloyd started to worry. "Mr. Anderson, you can't go back on your word!""Lloyd, Beck and Call isn't a place where you can go just on a whim." Yvonne furrowed her brows. "You can't go up against Mark with just brute force. I don't want anyone else to get hurt anymore, so—""Ms. Yvonne, I'd already made up my mind a long time ago. I know what sort of place Beck and Call is." Lloyd looked flustered. He was afraid that Yvonne and Stephen would find excuses to stop him from going again. "Gwen is gone, and Curtis is down. I can't just stay a coward forever, right

After that day, they no longer saw Lloyd. Yvonne got people to look for him in the headquarters a few times, yet no one could find him.In the end, Yvonne remembered what Stephen said.When she looked for Stephen, he was talking to Garrett and the others about work.When Garrett saw Yvonne, he enthusiastically greeted her. "Ms. Y, are you looking for Mr. Anderson?""Hmm." As Yvonne went closer, Harold lowered his head awkwardly. "Ms. Y, I was out of line when I said those things about you at the last meeting. I'm sorry. Please forgive me."Yvonne chuckled. "It's fine. I've already forgotten what you said."Harold looked up to see Yvonne smiling at him sincerely. He felt even more embarrassed.Stephen and Yvonne were married. He had overstepped by objecting to Yvonne. After the meeting, not only had Yvonne not made things difficult for him, but she had even given him space to leave with grace.Just based on this alone, her behavior was very different from how the past Principa

The Jewel of Your Love Chapter 1678 You Were Their Whole Life
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.
