Stephen's phone was knocked to the ground. The screen instantly turned black.Before Stephen could react, a wet and sticky hand covered his mouth. The person pushed him to the back of the door.The light on the backdoor instantly switched off.The man warned through gritted teeth, "If you want to live, you better be good."In the dark, one's senses were magnified. The blood was all Stephen could smell. He furrowed his brows.Soon, scurried footsteps could be heard outside the door.The man seemed to have perked his ears up to listen to the movements outside. His grip on Stephen loosened.Just when he was distracted, Stephen grabbed him by the wrist and tackled him, pinning him deadly on the wall."You …" The man wanted to curse, but at the thought that the people hunting him down were still outside, he could only glare at Stephen through reddened eyes."If you want me to save you, you better be good." Stephen mimicked what the man had said to him, but in a much colder tone.T

A night has passed, and Cory seemed to have vanished into thin air.Kendrick's men had even searched through the trash, but they couldn't find anything at all.While Kendrick was pissed off and lecturing his men, Otto opened the door and interrupted him.Kendrick was a little stunned. He furrowed his brows and asked, "How did you find me?"Otto had a grim expression. He walked over to Kendrick. "Sloan was doing business at the North Docks the day before yesterday. Last night, he went missing. Was this your doing?""Yes," Kendrick admitted openly. He looked at Otto intently. "Is there a problem? So Sloan can cause me trouble, but I can't hit back?""I have no objections to you hitting back, but you can't kill him off in one shot! Now, you're just alarming him!"Otto stopped right in front of Kendrick and grabbed him by his collar. "Now that Sloan is missing, you're out in the open while he's hiding in a corner somewhere. He could find an opportunity and get rid of you at any ti

That night, after Stephen's call with Yvonne, he started to consider if he should take some other illegal routes.However, three days later, before he could do anything, Neil shared some good news with him."It's done! We have a deal!" Neil pushed open the door and walked over to Stephen delightedly. "Mr. Anderson, those two contractors have decided to sign with us. They even agreed to the original price and said that it could even be lowered!"He continued, "They were afraid that we wouldn't believe them. They brought a contract over for us to have a look. They said if there are no problems with it, we can sign it whenever we want!"Then, Neil handed the contracts to Stephen with both hands. "Have a look at it, Mr. Anderson."Stephen furrowed his brows. "Why did they suddenly agree?""I found it strange too, but I went through the contracts in detail. There really isn't any problem. Also, they were really sincere. It was as if …"Neil added hesitantly. "They were afraid we wo

It was winter now, and it snowed often. The entire city was covered in snow.Since it was warm inside, many people became lazy and didn't like to leave the house.Yvonne had spent the weekend playing with the children at home. When it was time to get to work on Monday, she almost slept through. Jim had to knock on her door to wake her up.However, even when she was at Hope Health Services, her soul seemed to still be in bed.After yawning a few times, she asked her assistant to bring her a cup of coffee. When her assistant returned with the coffee, she had a package in her hands too."Ms. Miller, this is a package from you. I think it's from a client."Yvonne took the package and glanced at the information on it. She guessed randomly. "It's probably from Mrs. Jenner."After her assistant left, Yvonne drank her coffee while opening the package. Sure enough, she found a neatly folded gown in the package.The intricacy of the embroidery on the front of the gown was beautifully don

"I've passed on your thanks to my mother."When Yvonne received the message, she was in bed with Elvin and Britney, reading them their bedtime stories.Britney had a good eye. She immediately noticed the name on the screen. It wasn't a name she was familiar with."Aunt Yvonne, who's talking to you?"Elvin also subconsciously took a glance. Otto Carrington? That was the man they had seen at the Christmas party!"A friend." Yvonne didn't reply to the message. She put her phone aside and turned to look at the both of them. They were looking at her with their huge, round eyes, not one bit sleepy.Yvonne smiled helplessly. "I'll go get you two some milk.""Okay!" Britney nodded obediently and saw Yvonne leaving the room."Did you see what that man wrote to my mommy?" Elvin asked.Britney turned and shook her head innocently. "I saw it, but I couldn't read." It was challenging for Britney to read a sentence in such a short time.Elvin felt a little depressed. He knew he shouldn't h
