Monica gulped and smiled nervously. "What are you doing here, Xavier?"

Xavier still couldn't talk, so he waved her over and began typing on his phone. "Are you misunderstanding something, Mrs. Jones?"

Monica read what he'd typed and studied Xavier worriedly. "Your voice still hasn't returned?"

Xavier nodded and began typing again. "Yvonne messed with me. That's why I'm here."

"That bitch—" Monica quickly corrected herself, smiling apologetically. "She's that capable? How did I never realize?"

Xavier thought to himself, "Kayla really is her daughter. Both of them are so dumb. They still haven't realized that Yvonne isn't someone they want to mess with."

Just then, Yvonne's assistant entered the room to inform them. "Ms. Miller isn't feeling well, so she won't be coming in for the next few days. She also asked me to express her apologies to both of you." She relayed Yvonne's message and bowed her head. "I apologize for making you come all the way down here."

Yvonne had clearly expected t

    When Andy Swift woke up and saw Yvonne's text, he immediately called her, worried that she might be in trouble."I'm kind of in deep water back here, so I can only turn to foreign partners," Yvonne explained softly. "Try to find a company with a low price but decent quality. You know what I want."Andy patted his chest confidently. "Sure thing! Leave it to me!"After that, the two of them began chatting casually. Andy was her partner and her second-in-command at QT, but to the public, he was known as the CEO of QT. Yvonne only worked behind the scenes, so not many people knew who she was. Before returning to the country, Yvonne had given Andy full reign over the company, intending to pass it on to him as well. However, Andy had yet to accept her offer.Yvonne was about to bring the topic up again when Andy suddenly shouted, "Right! Someone from Muguet contacted us last week. They're proposing a collaboration to come up with a new perfume. We'll be in charge of designing the bottle."Mu

    "My boyfriend!" Rachel grinned, not forgetting to send a kissing emoji to the other person. "He needs some decent clothes for an event. It'll be too much trouble to always rent some."Yvonne frowned. "Why can't he buy them himself?""He just started working. How could he have so much money?"Yvonne wanted to say something but kept quiet when she saw how happy Rachel looked. What if she was thinking too much? She probably shouldn't be making assumptions when she hadn't even met the man yet. "I guess it's fine since it's not much to you." Yvonne gave in. "But you better keep your money under lock and key. Don't blindly believe everything he says, especially when it comes to large sums.""Got it!"…Yvonne received a text from Andy after three days saying that he'd found a supplier and jewelry crafting company for her. The other party had cooperated happily when they heard that this was for Ms. Y. While Yvonne wasn't happy that Andy had used her organizational name, she gave him credit f

    A man came running over, pausing when he saw Yvonne. Yvonne was used to the scornful and mocking looks he was trying to conceal. He was definitely another member of the family trying to make fun of her.The man was slightly older than her. While he shared facial similarities with the rest of the Andersons, he definitely seemed like a womanizer. "Hi, Sis. My name's Benjamin."Yvonne immediately realized that he was Noah's younger brother. She flashed him a polite smile. "Hello."Benjamin was about to say something else when Stephen walked into the house, completely ignoring him. Naturally, Yvonne walked past Benjamin and followed Stephen hurriedly. Benjamin watched the couple, sneering silently. "You blind bastard, do you think you're still the same man you were back then?"Noah stopped beside Benjamin and warned him with a frown. "Don't provoke him.""Alright." Benjamin couldn't understand. "Noah, you're the one in charge of Anderson Group now. Why are you still so afraid of him? He's

    The dinner ended quickly due to Elizabeth's bad mood. On the other hand, Yvonne ate heartily like nothing was wrong and even ordered a dessert to take home.Benjamin whispered to Noah, "Is Yvonne stupid? She made Grandma angry, and yet she’s still eating so happily?" Noah gave him a side eye and didn’t bother to say much. After their last encounter, Noah realized that, while Yvonne seemed meek and obedient on the surface, she was quite aggressive in reality. Compared to Stephen's frosty demeanor, Yvonne's ability to conceal her true intentions made her even more difficult to read. Noah watched Yvonne from afar with a hint of admiration. He sensed a kindred spirit in her.Meanwhile, Yvonne was frowning as she stared at the large pot of bitter tea in front of her. Elizabeth ordered her sternly, "This tea is good for your health and can boost fertility. Drink it all up before you leave."Yvonne was at a loss for words. This was blatant revenge!After she finished the tea, Elizabet

    Xavier glared at Yvonne with eyes that showed how much he wished to tear her limb from limb. Yvonne felt some satisfaction at seeing his anger after facing obstacles at every turn. "I won't leave Stephen just because of your despicable actions. Besides, I have a warning for you. If you provoke me again, you won’t just lose your voice next time," Yvonne hissed with narrowed eyes. After uttering these harsh words, Yvonne turned around and left. Infuriated and anxious, Xavier was contemplating whether he should compromise when Yvonne’s faint voice called out, "The medicine’s effect will wear off in three days. Don't come looking for me again."It was quite a distance from the entrance at the foot of the mountain to Oceania Villa itself. When Yvonne finally reached her destination, the villa was dark. She found her way up to the second floor in the dark. She was startled to see a dark figure sitting on the couch when she opened the door. Yvonne switched the lights on and asked in conf

    After a moment of silence, Gwen spoke regretfully. "Yvonne, you should know that the organization objected to you leaving QT and going back to take over Miller Jewels. They did it in hopes that you would come back. You can't handle Miller Jewels on your own. It's better to give up sooner rather than later."Gwen tried to word it as delicately as possible, but Yvonne could sense the domineering tone in her voice when she read between the lines. "I understand; you don't need to say anymore."Hearing the disappointment and resistance in Yvonne's reply, Gwen furrowed her brows. Before hanging up, she reminded Yvonne in a low voice, "Yvonne, you must remember that everything you have now was given to you by Emerald Group. You need to prioritize what’s important."At Oceania Villa, Stephen woke up from his nap and heard from Tabitha that Yvonne had come home for lunch. "I wanted to take up some tea for her, but she said that she was too tired and wanted some quiet time." Tabitha was very

    Yvonne had a grim expression on her face as she hung up. She was startled to see Stephen staring at her unwaveringly when she turned around. It was the first time Stephen had a good look at Yvonne’s face. She had clear skin, shining brown eyes, and rosy lips. Her features were delicate and beautiful. However, the fake scar on her face was even more terrifying than he'd imagined. In contrast to her beautiful and alluring appearance, the appalling scar on her cheek made her seem even more eerie Inexplicably, Stephen recognized Yvonne’s eyes. They seemed familiar to him, but he couldn't remember when he'd seen them before. Perhaps he was mistaken. When he saw Yvonne lost in thought, Stephen hesitated for a moment before deciding to ask another question. "Who called you?""It was Xavier." Yvonne didn't want to lie to Stephen and replied honestly, "He asked me to meet him, saying that he would bail Miller Jewels out." "You're going to meet him?" Stephen furrowed his brows."Yes.

    Back at Oceania Villa, Stephen had been standing on the balcony ever since Yvonne had the villa in her car.His dark eyes, which were previously dull, now seemed brighter. He could see the dazzling sunlight, the lush forests, and the birds that flew about in the sky. It was a picturesque scene. He could even see the specks of dust floating in the air around him. This was the world he'd almost been about to give up, but Yvonne had brought it back to him once again. Last night, when he regained his sight, his heart was so full of joy that he couldn’t stop himself from wanting to share it with her. Unfortunately, Yvonne was being such a killjoy. At this crucial juncture, she would rather go and beg Xavier for help than request Stephen's help! He really couldn't understand what went on in her head.Stephen slowly closed his eyes. The more he tried to organize his muddled thoughts, the more irritable he became. He tried suppressing the idea that kept reappearing in his mind, but to no a

    As Yvonne left the room, she could tell that Stephen's mood was much better.She looked at him.

    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.

    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.
