Chapter 81 She’s No a Damsel in Distress

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

Chapter 82 Kick Me When I'm Down

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

Chapter 83 Am I Supposed to Give Up on Living?

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

Chapter 84 Don’t Come Back Crying

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.

Chapter 85 Beg Me in Person

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

Chapter 86 Don’t You Need a Way Out?

Stephen left the villa with Yvonne in tow. On the way, she bombarded him with questions, but he didn’t answer. An hour later, the Maybach stopped in the underground parking lot of a shopping mall. Stephen got out of the car, and Yvonne followed him cautiously.Stephen had excellent body proportions, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His long legs made him look like a model, even though he was wearing casual clothes. As he walked through the crowd, he drew everyone's attention with his striking presence and noble temperament. Yvonne couldn’t help but sigh as she followed behind him. Stephen was definitely easy on the eyes. Fortunately, he was blind; otherwise, she wouldn’t stand a chance. Lost in thought, Yvonne bumped into Stephen's back, making her scowl in pain. Poking her head out, she noticed that they had stopped outside a store selling luxury goods. "Why did you bring me here?""To buy clothes.""I have clothes to wear; there’s no need..."Without another word, Ste

Chapter 87 Ill-Mannered Brat

Two paintings and two china figurines had already been auctioned off within 30 minutes of their arrival.Yvonne appeared uninterested throughout the auction, only raising her paddle three times in a row when Monica and Kayla bid on a vase. She had no interest in the vase; she was simply trying to raise the price. Since she'd had the bad luck of running into them, wouldn't it be a waste of opportunity if she didn't cause some trouble for them?As the auction drew to a close, the final item up for auction was a rare Victorian vase, glazed rose gold. Yvonne squinted her eyes. "This one's not bad. The starting price should be around three million dollars."As expected, the auctioneer announced the starting price. It was exactly as she had predicted. Stephen was slightly surprised and gave Yvonne a glance. "How do you know the price? Have you done some research?" "I know a little about antiques," Yvonne replied nonchalantly. Her eyes were fixed on the stage, determined to win the bid.

Chapter 88 Win Him Over

In the third-floor study, Arthur put aside the gift that Stephen brought and invited him to play a game of chess. Since Stephen couldn't see the board, he would simply say which move to make, and Yvonne would move the chess pieces. By now, the game was at its climax. As an observer, Yvonne was watching every move they made with great interest. This was her first time meeting Arthur, and she found him to be much more dignified and imposing than Xavier's flippant personality. Despite being in his 80s and having a whole head of gray hair, he was still sharp and didn't look his age at all. From time to time, Yvonne would steal a glance at him, looking for a suitable opportunity to speak with him. Just then, Xavier pushed open the door and entered, followed by Thomas and his family. "Grandfather, you’re in such a good mood. How could you abandon the guests in the courtyard and hide in this study to play chess with Stephen?" Xavier asked. Arthur had been deep in thought and was displea

Chapter 89 Your Heart Is So Vile

"I was just speaking the truth; what else is there to it?" Yvonne crossed her arms with a smirk. "What? Are you trying to benefit by associating yourself with me?" "Don’t spout nonsense!" Kayla denied it hastily, but it was obvious that she'd been exposed. "Who do you think you are? If it wasn't for that blind man, you wouldn't even be able to enter the gates of Robinson Residence!" Kayla raised her chin in arrogance. "Furthermore, I'm Xavier's fiancée. Do I still need to suck up to you? Stop flattering yourself!""Just a moment ago, I heard Old Mr. Robinson mention that you're Xavier’s girlfriend. How did you become his fiancée in such a short time? Who is really trying to flatter themselves here?" Yvonne mocked her, causing Kayla to fly into a rage. She raised her hand to give Yvonne a slap, but Yvonne’s reflexes were faster. She grabbed Kayla’s wrist tightly, causing Kayla to scream in pain, "Let go of me!""I agree that I was only able to attend this celebration because of Mr

Chapter 90 Couldn’t Have Noticed

With a frown, Arthur looked at Monica with disdain and ordered loudly, "Stop gaping and standing around here! Quick, arrange for someone to take Ms. Jones to the hospital!" As he spoke, he gave Xavier a hard kick. "Go and take care of your girlfriend!"Xavier stepped forward and carried Kayla in his arms. However, before he left, he gave Yvonne a meaningful look. She was completely soaked through. Her silk dress clung to her shapely figure, and her long, black hair draped over her shoulders, covering her face from view. Wrapped up in Stephen’s arms, she appeared tiny and delicate in comparison. One glance was enough for Xavier to feel a protective urge over a weak, helpless damsel like Yvonne. Stephen sensed Xavier’s burning gaze on them and tightened his grip on Yvonne’s shoulder, asserting his dominance. All this while, Yvonne was admiring how well Stephen handled the situation. Their chemistry was seamless! She had no inkling of the tense, wordless exchange between the two men.
