Chapter 161 Was There No One Else in the Entertainment Industry?

The moment their words aligned, Thomas came to a conclusion, which he then thought was unlikely. He frowned and said, "Yvonne was living in the village before this. How would she know the owner of an international jewelry brand?"Katie said, "I’m not too sure about that. I’ll try to weasel information out of Andy when I get the chance to."Thomas was quiet for a minute. This was weird. Many unexpected things had happened since Yvonne had returned. He had to get to the bottom of this. He looked at Monica. "Ask the villagers what Yvonne had been doing there during the past 20 years."Monica nodded. "Alright."Katie sighed in relief when she saw that they had believed her words. This could also be a good chance to move out of the Jones family house. She masked a pitiful expression and said, "Mom, dad, I want to move out."Monica grew anxious. "This is your home. Where else do you want to live?""After my return, I tried to be good to you and Kayla. But …" Katie smiled bitterly. "I’v

Meanwhile, Stephen had just finished meeting with his foreign clients.On the way home, he rubbed his forehead, his feather-like eyelashes concealing the exhaustion in his eyes.After working under so much pressure for so many days in a row, even a strong body would start to feel the effects.Julian asked warily, "Mr. Anderson, would you like to take two days off? If you keep going on like this, I fear …""There’s no need," Stephen said in a low voice. "How many things are left on the itinerary?""Not many." Julian had checked it in the morning. They were making progress faster than they'd expected. "If we keep this up, we’ll be able to return next week.""Very well," Stephen replied. Then he shut his eyes.His head felt like it was about to explode, but as he rested, his thoughts drifted to Yvonne. Had she cooled off yet?…In the morning, Yvonne dragged Rachel out of the house, saying there was a show that they had to watch.To Rachel's surprise, Yvonne drove her to City Ha

Chapter 163 I’m Helping You

Lindsey watched the car disappear into traffic and gathered her emotions, wiping away her tears. She gritted her teeth in anger. "Fuck! I only had one last thing to do!"Once she registered her marriage with that old fuck, she would be able to claim half of the Joneses’ property as her own. She'd kept her true intentions so well hidden. Why did Thomas have to ruin everything at the last second?"Get up. They’re already gone. How long are you going to be sitting for?" A woman’s voice sounded from above.Lindsey looked up. The sun blinded her, and she had to narrow her eyes for a while to see that it was her neighbor.Although they’d only met for a while, Lindsey remembered her because of the scar on her face. She stood up and asked, after a pause, "Why are you here? Did you see anything? Don’t you dare spread nonsense if you did!""The person you want to marry is my grandfather," Yvonne said, revealing her identity.Lindsey was stunned, but she snapped back to reality in an instan

Chapter 164 Smart Indeed

"Do you really not believe in the organization?" Gwen said coldly. "Don’t worry. Forget Monica. Even if Stephen comes knocking, he won’t be able to find anything."As a secret organization that worked primarily with the rich, Emerald Group was notorious for being thorough. They even kept their employees’ identities concealed. Thus, making someone disappear and creating a new person altogether was as easy as pie.Yvonne relaxed when she got Gwen’s reassurance. "I don't need to worry since you're around, Gwen.""I’ve heard about Miller Jewels." Gwen seemed awkward. After a pause, she added, "Congratulations, Yvonne."She'd been against Yvonne taking over Miller Jewels at first. She'd said it for Yvonne's own good, as she didn’t want Yvonne to be pitted against the organization. Now that she knew Miller Jewels had crossed their first obstacle, she was relieved on Yvonne’s behalf. Regardless of which side Gwen was on, she was sincere.Yvonne smiled. "Thanks, Gwen."They talked for a

Chapter 165 I Must See Yvonne

That night, Thomas sent Joseph to the town.News of the young sugarbaby had consumed the city overnight like wildfire.Stephen heard of it when his plane landed. He guessed that this was Yvonne’s doing and smirked. She hadn’t stopped to take a break since he'd left."There’s one more thing, Mr. Anderson." Julian leaned over, looking pained. "Ariel is back."Stephen’s face turned cold. "When did she come back?""The day we left."They’d been so busy with work that they hadn’t noticed the news of her return. Now that they were back, Julian had caught up on everything that had happened, and the news of Ariel returning had taken him by surprise.She’d gone abroad for quite a few years without a single peep. Why was she suddenly back?Julian discreetly observed Stephen’s expression. He couldn’t quite tell what was going through Stephen's head. He’d been with Stephen for many years, and he’d witnessed the relationship between him and Ariel.Although it had been an arranged marriage

Chapter 166 You’re So Heartless

"What are you standing there for?" Rachel’s loud voice reached Yvonne’s ears.Yvonne snapped out of it and turned towards the table. Rachel was walking towards her with a glass of juice in her hands.When she drew near, Yvonne asked in a low voice, "What’s happening?"Rachel smiled brightly. "Mr. Anderson happened to have come back. Isn’t it great for everyone to party together?"Yvonne was speechless and wondered if her friend had been replaced by an alien. She seemed to be a part of Stanley’s group now.Rachel gave her the juice and said, "Don’t be mad at him anymore. You’ve already stayed at my place for long enough."Yvonne rolled her eyes. "Are you kicking me out?""Of course not. I’d love for you to stay with me forever." Rachel linked her arm with Yvonne’s, then said in her ear, "Julian says that Mr. Anderson was rushing through work to come back to see you. He got Stanley to help plan this the moment he touched down. How can I hold on to you when he’s so sincere? I can’t

Chapter 167 Come Home With Me

Stephen let her go, but not entirely. His breaths were erratic. Hoarsely, he said, "Come home with me."His request, filled with desire, sounded like a command. A single whisper from him could hypnotize someone.As Yvonne hesitated, the hand around her waist pinched her impatiently. She glared at Stephen. If she didn’t follow him home, he could drive everyone out of this room and teach her a lesson.Seeing that she didn't refuse him, his smile widened. He scooped her into his arms.Yvonne exclaimed. "I just got here. You …""Four of them are enough. They don’t need us here."Stephen carried her out, not staying for another moment.The other people in the room were courteous enough to keep their gazes trained on their cards.Rachel snuck a glance at them out of the corner of her eye, and Stanley instantly swiveled her head back to the table.When the door was shut, Rachel exploded. "He’s so good to her!""Don’t you think it’s weird?" James was bewildered. "He knows that Ariel

Chapter 168 Ms. Y’s Threat

Yvonne didn't voice out the questions in her heart. She didn't think it was worth discussing. After all, her relationship with Stephen was unique—they were only legally married.What could be brought up and interfered with was clear. She couldn't cross the line to ask about inappropriate things.Yvonne had to rest in bed until the evening before she finally regained her strength.She went back to her room to shower. She dug up the gift and opened the box. It was a diamond bracelet from QT.No wonder Stephen had asked that question when he saw her bare hand.Yvonne tried it on. Paired with the bracelet, her wrist looked even more delicate. It was really pretty. What a pity that she wasn’t used to wearing jewelry.She took it off, put it back into the box, and stashed it away.Suddenly, her phone vibrated on the table. She took it and tapped on the message Gwen had sent. It was a list of the members in her group and an address.She looked it up. It was to the east of Northerna Ci

Chapter 169 The Stars Were Messing With Her

"Put the mission on hold."Yvonne had sent the message to Curtis Weller, the leader of the team. As Ms. Y’s team, they had to obey her every decision.When he received the order, he didn't question it. He took the cigarette between his lips and stamped it out, telling the others, "Let’s retreat."One of his subordinates asked, "What is it? Is there an update from Ms. Y?""Yes. The mission has been postponed. Something might have happened. I’m going to talk to the client." Curtis took two of his subordinates and headed toward the room. When they opened the door, the woman, who'd been pacing anxiously in the room, rushed over."Is Ms. Y here? How is Conan doing?" It was Camille."We’re sorry," Curtis said slowly. "Something has happened. We might have to meet up at another time.""What … what does that mean?" Camille was stunned. "Has Ms. Y changed her mind? Have I done something wrong? Is it not enough? We can discuss this. She …""I’m not sure what happened, so I can’t give you

Chapter 170 Things Weren't Looking Good

Gwen didn't ask Yvonne to make a decision. Instead, she gave Yvonne time to consider it.For the whole night, Yvonne tossed and turned in bed. In the end, she stared at the ceiling, slowly collecting her thoughts.She wasn't afraid of anyone or anything. But when she'd seen Conan lying on that bed today, her first instinct had been to think of Stephen.She wasn’t afraid of him. Rather, she just didn’t want to do anything that would upset him.Yvonne came to a realization. Since when had she become so concerned about how Stephen felt?When it came to anything to do with Conan, Stephen would abandon her without hesitation.Why did she have to care about him? On top of that, as long as the entire treatment was kept secret, Stephen wouldn't know that she'd treated Conan. She'd be able to complete her task and grant Conan a whole new life.In other words, she was basically giving this up for nothing.After a bout of consideration, Yvonne finally made her decision.…For two consec
