Chapter 776 My Son Likes You?

Author: Bambina Unica
While Yvonne was thinking about how to ask Stephen to go back first, she heard him unbuckle his seatbelt.

He got out of the car and looked at Caleb. "Do you have so much free time lately, Mr. Turner?"

The atmosphere between them was nowhere near amicable.

Curling up his lips, Caleb replied, "I'm not as free as you, Mr. Anderson."

Although they had only exchanged a few words, Yvonne could sense the growing tension in the air. Feeling her head throb, she cleared her throat to ease the stalemate in front of her.

Then, she looked at Stephen. "It's late now. Go home first, Mr. Anderson. Thanks for the dinner tonight."

After saying that, she walked toward Caleb and said in a soft voice, "I need your help with something."

Caleb didn't ask anything further. He simply followed Yvonne into the villa.

As Stephen stared at their receding figures, his expression darkened.

Less than half an hour later, Caleb came out and saw that Stephen was still standing by his car. He couldn't hel

    Yvonne had asked Caleb to investigate Mark's mother, Jennifer. Ever since then, she had been patiently waiting for his news. During this time, Carmen got someone to send an invitation to Miller Jewels to invite Yvonne to a banquet. Yvonne showed up at the venue on time.Carmen was surrounded by a group of wealthy ladies. The moment she looked up and saw Yvonne, her eyes instantly brightened. "Please excuse me. I need to go greet my friend over there."As she spoke, she gave the champagne to the waiter and stepped away from the crowd. Katie was standing not far away. She had been waiting for the people around Carmen to disperse. Upon seeing Carmen was on her own now, Katie approached her with a glass of champagne. However, Carmen continued walking ahead. It seemed as though she hadn't seen Katie. Katie followed Carmen's line of sight, only to see Yvonne in a long, red dress in the distance. She resembled an alluring rose.Several other guests had noticed Yvonne too. They kn

    As soon as Katie finished speaking, the other guests began to whisper among themselves about it. Ariel was stunned. She couldn't think of anything to say and simply stared at Katie in shock. At this moment, Katie seemed so unfamiliar to her, unlike the person she had thought she was. Jodie couldn't stand it anymore. Pulling a long face, she retorted, "Katie, stop dragging Yvonne down! Aren't you aware of what you did? Ariel trusted you so much, yet you abused her trust and hurt her repeatedly! Do you even deserve to be her friend?" "I ... I only wanted to help her." Katie remained aggrieved. "Since you believe Yvonne's words, whatever I say is going to be useless." "Oh? What did I say?" Yvonne's voice came through before she stepped into the scene. Standing in between Katie and Ariel, Yvonne looked at Ariel and asked, "Ms. Clarke, did I say anything that drove a wedge between you two?"Ariel shook her head."I only taught you how to deal with those who casually leak medic

    Yvonne went over to wash her hands. She had no intention to talk about Katie. Looking at her, Ariel said softly, "Thank you for just now." If it hadn't been for Yvonne, Ariel would probably have collapsed again under Katie's barrage of questions. Her resilience was extremely fragile at the moment. After washing her hands, Yvonne wiped them dry with a tissue and casually leaned against the side of the washbasin. "I was just speaking for myself. You don't have to thank me. But you should toughen up. Don't let anyone speak nonsense about you. Even if you can't think of anything to retort, you should just slap their faces so that they shut up on the spot." As soon as Yvonne finished speaking, she threw the tissue into the bin and headed to leave.However, Ariel grabbed her hand and asked timidly. "Yvonne, I've made a lot of mistakes before. Why are you still willing to help me?"Yvonne heaved a sigh. "I'm not helping you." Why hadn't she noticed that Ariel was such a self-abs

    "She was a victim. Back then, she thought she could hide the truth by insisting that the child she was carrying was mine. Sadly, the truth was bound to be revealed sooner or later." At the time, when he'd found out that Ariel had slept with Benjamin, he had thought of confronting the situation. However, Ariel came from a well-known family. So he had realized that revealing the truth would not only ruin her reputation but also her life. Despite having to bear the criticism of being a heartless man, Stephen had remained resolute about Ariel getting the abortion. He had kept the truth hidden throughout the years for the sake of Ariel's dignity. Pulling himself out of his memories, Stephen spoke again after a moment of silence. "That child shouldn't have been born, nor should she have insisted that I was the child's father." Hearing that, Yvonne was so shocked that she was at a loss for words. She subconsciously reduced the force of her hands on his eyes. Stephen caught sight o

    "Do I need you to meddle in my business?" Noah was angry. "Carmen is the acting president of Anderson Group. You attended her banquet as my fiancée and made a fool of yourself in front of her. Now you're saying you did it to help me out?" Letting out a laugh in exasperation, he grabbed Katie's chin."Because of what happened last night, Carmen has an extremely poor impression of you. She will definitely favor Stephen more at the shareholders' meeting next time.""How can someone as dumb as you have the guts to make trouble at the banquet? I'm seriously wondering if you're someone sent by Stephen to stay by my side!" As soon as he finished speaking, he fiercely shoved Katie's face away. Katie's cheeks stung. She didn't dare turn around to look at Noah. "I ... I wanted Ms. Lynch to know that Yvonne isn't a decent person either. Ms. Lynch didn't even spare me a glance, yet she treated Yvonne so warmly. Why? I'm your fiancée! Yvonne is just someone who was kicked out of the And

    Yvonne wasn't going anywhere too far this time. Besides, it was also the weekend. Considering that she hadn't taken Elvin out to have some fun in a long time, she decided to take him with her. When Elvin heard about it, he maintained a calm expression. Although he said that only kids enjoyed going out to play, his actions revealed how he truly felt. After returning home from school on Friday, he went to his room and packed his bag.Walking down the stairs with her bag, Yvonne couldn't help but chuckle upon seeing Elvin waiting in the living room. "You're fast. Have you done packing your things?"Elvin hummed in response, seemingly a little awkward. Yvonne was amused by how cute he was. She was about to approach him when she heard the doorbell ring. She put her bag down and went over to open the door. The moment she did, she saw a very excited Britney. "Aunt Yvonne!" Britney hugged Yvonne's thigh and acted like a spoiled child. "Daddy is cooking today!" Yvonne was slig

    All of a sudden, a loud noise came from the kitchen.Yvonne immediately ran over, forgetting the question she had asked Curtis earlier. Curtis breathed a long sigh and followed after her, only to find the kitchen in a complete mess. The pot had been shattered into several pieces.It sure seemed like someone had fought a battle in there.Suppressing her anger, Yvonne asked, "Are you here to ruin my kitchen or cook?""I made a slight error." Stephen crouched down and cleaned up the mess on the floor. No matter how chaotic the situation was, he seemed to be able to handle it skillfully.Yvonne didn't know why her anger dissipated in an instant. What could she expect from a wealthy man who rarely did housework?She turned around and fetched some cleaning tools. "Go ahead with the rest. I'll clean these up." Hearing that, Stephen went along with her and continued to prepare the remaining dishes. When Yvonne was done cleaning up the mess, she looked over at Stephen. He was wa

    Hearing that, Yvonne turned around and met Stephen's gaze. Under the dim light in the car, his eyes were particularly bright. It was as if he could see through her. Yvonne was slightly stunned before she looked away. "Knowing too much won't do you any good. Let's part ways when we reach Guartique Town." "Are you going there to investigate Mark?" he asked.Yvonne didn't want to talk about it. She ignored him and leaned against the window with her eyes closed. Seeing that, Stephen stared at her side profile for a long time. He didn't ask her anything else. Silence enveloped the car throughout the five-hour journey By the time they arrived at Guartique Town, it was already early in the morning. Everywhere was dark. They carried the children and headed toward the homestay. Yvonne had booked the entire place for the sake of convenience. The landlord, Raymond Styles, was waiting in the living room. As soon as he saw Stephen and the rest, he assumed that they were a family of f

    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.

    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.
