"Monica!" Thomas tried to stop her in dismay.

"Very well!" Elizabeth laughed mockingly, clapping her hands. "I can finally see why your daughter's such a spoiled brat. Like mother, like daughter."

Elizabeth had been doubtful when Yvonne tearfully told her what had actually happened a few days ago. Yet she was fully convinced now. Monica was not only materialistic but also a cruel and despicable woman.

"Men, hold this woman down and slap her so that she knows her place!" Elizabeth ordered, and two bodyguards rushed forward. One held Monica down while the other slapped her ruthlessly.

Monica’s screams and the sound of the slaps echoed in the living room while Kayla cried and begged them to stop. Yvonne was secretly enjoying the satisfaction. It was a shame that she couldn’t personally lend a hand in beating Monica up.

At this moment, a Rolls-Royce entered the courtyard. The license plate seemed very familiar to the bodyguards stationed outside.

A man stepped out of the car. When the bodyguards saw who it was, they were stunned before quickly running into the living room to report his arrival. "Madam, Mr. Anderson is here."

Elizabeth was shocked as she looked at the door incredulously. "Stephen's here?"

Stephen hadn't set foot outside since he lost his eyesight. He wouldn't listen to anyone's advice to leave the mansion. Why did he come to Miller Villa today? It was unbelievable! Elizabeth felt like she was in a dream as she watched Stephen walk through the door with a cane in his hand.

Everyone in the living room fell silent at Stephen's arrival. They stared at him with widened eyes, afraid to even breathe too loudly.

Stephen broke the silence. "Grandma, why did you bring my wife back to her parents' home without telling me?"

His question took everyone by surprise. What did he mean? With his dull eyes, Stephen turned left and right, seemingly searching for someone. "Where's Yvonne?"

Reading the situation quickly, Yvonne stepped forward and headed straight for Stephen. "Stephen, why did you leave the mansion?"

"I woke up from my nap and couldn't find you. When I asked the maids, they told me that you'd gone out with Grandma."

Stephen reached out his hand, and Yvonne understood immediately, wrapping her hand around his.

The two looked like a newlywed couple, completely enamored with each other. However, the scene was a little too much to take in at first sight for outsiders.

A blind man and an ugly girl...

No matter how affectionate they were, it was a strange picture to behold.

"Grandma, I’ve brought some gifts for my father- and mother-in-law. Can you help me arrange it?"

As Stephen was blind, he had no idea of the chaos that had erupted in the living room just now. His only thought was to take Yvonne home as soon as possible.

Yvonne could feel the cold sweat on Stephen’s hand and noticed his anxiety. She turned to Elizabeth and begged, "Grandma, can I go home with Stephen first?"

Elizabeth furrowed her brows as she stared at Yvonne. She wasn't pleased with this ugly granddaughter-in-law of hers. However, Stephen had finally left the mansion and appeared in public because of her.

In addition, Elizabeth felt somewhat calmer now. The situation had gotten so out of hand that the embarrassment was getting too much to bear. After much hesitation, she waved her hand in resignation and said, "Forget it. You two go back first; I'll handle the rest."

Yvonne gave Stephen a helping hand as they walked out, but she came to a halt all of a sudden, as if she remembered something. She turned to Thomas and said in a beseeching tone, "Father, when will you give me my dowry?"

It was an item Thomas had promised to return to her after she got married. With Elizabeth around, he couldn’t go back on his word.

Hearing this, Thomas' face twisted in anger, but he could only grit his teeth and respond, "Alright, I'll go get it now."

Monica knew exactly what Yvonne wanted. Her furious gaze bore into Yvonne, giving her a death stare.

That little bitch deliberately came here to provoke her!

    Thomas went to his study and returned with a box made out of redwood. He handed it over to Yvonne.Yvonne smiled and obediently said, "Thank you, Father."Thomas gritted his teeth. "No need to thank me. Just make sure you live happily with Mr. Anderson." In other words, once she took the gift, she should never return home again. Yvonne had no intention of following his wishes. This was only the start of her revenge. She said teasingly, "Don't worry, I'll bring Mr. Anderson home to visit both of you often."Thomas was so mad that his expression became stormy.In the car, Stephen stretched out his hand. "What did you get from your father?""It’s my late mother’s last masterpiece, a ruby necklace," Yvonne replied.She opened the box. A luxurious and extravagant ruby necklace, Treasured Love, was lying inside. It had finally returned to her after so many years! But when Yvonne remembered that her mother's love for Thomas had inspired the creation of this necklace, she slammed the b

    At Anderson Mansion. Elizabeth was still emotional about what happened at Miller Villa. When she met Camille after returning home, she didn’t even greet her and stalked back to her own room instead. Camille followed after Elizabeth, asking curiously, "Mother, did Stephen really go to bring Yvonne back?" Elizabeth nodded in reply and exclaimed indignantly, "I really don't know what's wrong with Stephen. How could he take that ugly monster’s side?""It seems that Stephen's serious about this."Camille hid the disdain in her voice and put on the air of a cultured and virtuous lady. "Mother, I thought about this situation carefully after you left. This isn't necessarily a bad thing."Elizabeth couldn't understand it. "Not a bad thing? Our family’s reputation will be completely ruined! If the public found out that Stephen married an uneducated and ugly wife, it would be the joke of the town!""The reason you arranged a wife for Stephen was because you wanted him to have an heir, ri

    Now that Yvonne knew of the woman's hypocrisy, she thought the smile on Camille’s face looked chilling. On the other hand, Stephen didn't react at all. He sat there quietly, waiting to see what tricks Yvonne had up her sleeve. The next second, a cry pierced everyone's ears. "What! How could you? How could you install surveillance cameras in someone’s bedroom? Isn’t this the work of a pervert?" Yvonne screamed, horrified at the sight of the maintenance worker climbing up the stairs, acting as if she'd just discovered that the cameras were installed in the bedroom ceiling. The loud scream shocked everyone present. The maintenance workers looked at each other and turned to Camille. Camille recovered from the surprise and said awkwardly, "It's all my fault. I forgot to tell you earlier. The surveillance cameras in the bedroom were installed after Stephen went blind, mainly for his safety.""What about... what about what happened on our wedding night? Did all of you see it?" Yvo

    "No, it was her daughter, Kayla. It happened a long time ago, so there's no need to discuss it. By the way, what about the medication?" Yvonne didn’t want to talk about the scar, so she changed the subject.Stephen fell silent. "A doctor I trust prescribed it.""What makes you so sure that he wouldn't betray you?" Throughout the years, Yvonne had witnessed too many betrayals, making her despise the word "trust.""He wouldn't." Stephen was very certain. After all, Dr. Austin Parker had been his mother’s best friend before she passed away. For years, Dr. Austin had treated him well—better than his own father, Charles.That was why Stephen allowed Dr. Austin to take care of him after the accident and why he'd never suspected the medication. If it weren’t for Yvonne, he would've never thought that there was something wrong with it."Fine, I won’t argue with you," Yvonne said, spreading her hands. "If there is no problem with the doctor and the medication he prescribed, then it must be

    He could see!Darkness was no longer the only thing he could see. Now he could detect a faint white light. Stephen’s eyes widened. He was drawn to the light like a moth to a flame. Although his vision was still blurry, it gave him a huge burst of confidence in his recovery. Excited, he stood up and walked toward the windows. Before Yvonne was able to warn him to be careful, he stumbled and fell down.Yvonne darted forward and asked, "Are you alright? Your eyesight hasn’t fully recovered yet. You can only see bright light at the moment."Stephen abruptly grabbed her hand tightly and asked desperately, "Tell me, when will I fully recover?" Under the sunlight, his usually indifferent face showed a trace of a smile for the first time.Yvonne was startled and drew her hand away. "I’m not sure, but if you cooperate, you’ll recover sooner or later.""Okay," Stephen agreed happily. He looked toward the window. He'd never loved sunlight as much as he did at this moment. After a while,

    He quickly walked to Stephen without looking at Yvonne. "Sir, do you know what Ms. Miller looks like?"Julian didn't think Yvonne was ugly, but she looked rather scary. Yet Stephen seemed calm. "I know. There's an X-shaped scar on her left cheek.""Y-You knew?" Julian asked in shock. "Still, you—""I married her, didn't I?"Julian was speechless. Had Mr. Anderson also lost his mind in addition to his sight? He turned to Yvonne and asked, "What dirty tricks did you use to force Mr. Anderson into this?""Julian," Stephen said sharply. "It's been a while since you started working for me. Has that made you forget your place?""I—" Having spent years working for Stephen, Julian was familiar with his temper. Stephen detested hearing other people's opinions, especially regarding decisions he'd already made. However, Julian thought this situation was too ridiculous. Why did Mr. Anderson choose to marry a troll in the first place? Even so, he was aware that an assistant like him had no pl

    Thomas and Monica found Yvonne sitting on the couch when they went downstairs.Yvonne heard Monica's sharp, harsh voice before she even saw her. "It's Mrs. Anderson, indeed. I thought the maid was senseless enough to mistake her for the wrong person."Yvonne remained expressionless. She sneered inwardly, thinking that the couple would be the ones wailing later. She waited until they sat down and said, "I just came to notify you of one thing." She took out her marriage certificate and placed it on the table. "Stephen and I got our marriage certificate. We're legally married now."Monica was shocked and took the marriage certificate to check. Stephen's and Yvonne's signatures were on the certificate, and it was stamped with an official seal. Didn't the Anderson family say they'd only have a trial marriage? Hadn't they been unwilling to acknowledge Yvonne as their daughter-in-law? How the hell did they still manage to get their marriage registered?Thomas frowned and congratulated Y

    The air was thick with tension when Yvonne returned to Anderson Mansion.She looked around and saw Elizabeth sitting on the couch with a stern expression. A middle-aged man sat beside her, exuding power. Stephen was casually sitting on an armchair; his undignified manner looked out of place given the current atmosphere in the mansion.Yvonne was confused; she had no idea what was happening. She greeted them with a smile and asked, "Why is everyone in the living room?"Elizabeth banged the floor with her walking stick. "How dare you seduce Stephen and force him into marrying you?"Yvonne was stunned by the accusation. She couldn't understand why Elizabeth said she'd "seduced" Stephen.She looked inquiringly at Stephen, wanting to ask him what he'd said to Elizabeth. However, she quickly remembered that he was blind. Sighing, she decided to take the blame anyway. She looked at Elizabeth and said in a pitiful voice, "Grandma, if this is about the marriage certificate, Stephen's the o

    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.

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.

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.

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

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.
