Chapter 471

The helicopter's giant blades whipped up a wind that nearly swept the grass flat. Shawn's umbrella was long gone, and his suit jacket billowed in the gusts.He gazed at Zara with a steady eye. "Zara, are you coming with me or not?"In just a few heartbeats, Zara's mind raced with questions. Should she leave or stay? Who was more trustworthy, Yosef or Shawn? Could she keep investigating if she stayed? Would she find out the truth if she left?She thought of Yosef slipping the wedding ring on her finger and of Shawn always being there to protect her when they were younger. She remembered Yosef's words, 'I want you,' on the day they were officially married, as well as of the image of Shawn walking away no matter how much she wanted him to stay...Zara's breath came in short gasps. The rainwater stung her nose, and she felt a wave of panic like she was drowning.The door of the helicopter swung open, and Sadie leaned out, yelling, "Boss!"Nord called back, "Lower the ladder!"Sadi

Two or three seconds later, Yosef let go of Nord's neck and turned to get back in the car.He would not hang around there wasting time with him. Wilder had a bunch of tricks up his sleeve to get him talking, and he hoped the guy would still be as tough after a few hours.With a lazy wave of his hand, Wilder had his guys tie Nord up by his hands and feet. After taping his mouth shut, he was tossed into the trunk of a car.After drying off his face and hair with a towel handed to him by one of his crew, Wilder climbed into the sleek Maybach. "Yosef, what's our next move?"Yosef's eyes were sharp, the raindrops on his eyelids like blades. He peeked outside at the stormy weather, lightning and thunder cutting through the sky. It was so bad they should not be flying.However, Shawn knew the longer they stayed in Starville, the more likely he would be caught. He would probably risk it and fly anyway.Yosef's voice was deep and serious. "Charvi, get Ophite on the line. He's got friends

The helicopter was cramped, and Zara was so cold she kept sneezing.Shawn got Sadie to bring a blanket and put it over Zara. "We don't have extra clothes, but hang in there. We'll be there soon."Zara looked up, her face clean and clear from the rain, shining like polished stone. "Are we just going to leave? What about your guy?"Shawn pushed her hair back and whispered, "Yosef won't hurt him. My dad will talk things out with him, and Nord can get away by himself."Zara pulled the blanket closer, feeling icy cold. She looked out the window. It was dark. Starville was just a shadow, and it was hard to see anything.She thought they were heading to a house, but they ended up at a dock. They left the helicopter and got onto a private yacht.The pouring rain whipped up fierce winds over the ocean, making the waves crash against the shore again and again. The huge ship at the dock was like a grand castle that could move, standing tall and steady.Shawn helped her onto the yacht and i

Chapter 474

Zara, being the top-notch chief secretary she was, picked up on the odd way Shawn was asking right away, "Are you going to base what you tell me on what I know?"She looked him in the eye and said firmly, "You said you'd tell me everything." She was not about to let him off easy.Shawn gave a small, strained smile and uncrossed his legs. "I'm not trying to trick you. It's just that there's a lot to cover, and I'm not sure where to start. Why don't you kick things off?"After thinking it over, Zara brought up what Shelby had dug up. "My dad was taken from the hospital by someone. It looks like they took him to a villa, but we still don't know who owns it.""It's owned by someone named Yaxley," Shawn replied without missing a beat.Zara blinked in surprise. "Yaxley?"Shawn lifted the glass kettle from the stove, where the red wine had been warming. He poured it out, steam rising from the liquid. "Yaxley from the Sylverton Lark family. He tried to win your heart once, didn't he?""

She actually did it. She actually did it again... Without hesitation, she chose to go with Shawn. She climbed up the ladder and left Yosef without a second thought. It was as if the wedding ring she wore on her finger was just an accessory, as if their visit to the county clerk's office was merely a sightseeing trip, as if their marital bond was just a joke. In reality, she had never taken it seriously.The bathroom was steamy and hot, making it hard to breathe. For the first time, Yosef felt like he could not catch his breath. He quickly turned off the shower and leaned against the wall, his head hanging low.Water dripped from his hair. Yosef let out a small, mocking laugh. Whenever Shawn was around, Zara would always choose him, no matter what. It was like back in high school. Even though he and Shawn were both super popular, she only had eyes for Shawn. He remembered how she had run right past him to get to Shawn, not even giving him a glance.She was so into Shawn that she

Zara clutched at her chest, overwhelmed by a sudden feeling.Was this some kind of family intuition?She had never met Xever. Even when she tried to find out about him, there were no clear photos. However, just a few words from Shawn and her heart felt like it was tearing apart. It was throbbing with pain.Zara's mind swirled as she imagined a mighty lion. Once the ruler of the jungle, then trapped by a hunter's snare. Despite its fierce struggle to escape, its injuries weakened it. Soon, other lions, hungry for its territory, attacked. They worked together using cruel tactics until they took down the great lion. They then claimed its land and treasures while the lion king lay alone, dying in sorrow.His body decayed, turned to bones, and vanished from the world.Zara could not swallow her food. She felt a lump in her throat. Ethan's face twisted in her thoughts, her once well-respected features turning scary.Her heart was a roller coaster. "If he was set up, why didn't Xever

Shawn stopped and looked back at her.Zara bit her lip. "The person who's been protecting me... It's you, isn't it?"In their last meeting, Trevor had told her she was a very lucky woman, that she had angels watching over her. She always seemed to escape trouble, and he even gave her a few examples.Back then, Zara thought Trevor was just trying to dodge blame for not being there for her. However, right now, she was not so sure. Someone had been looking out for her... but who? The only person she could think of was Shawn.Shawn had done sneaky things before, like sending Nord to take secret photos of her, had he not?After a moment of silence, Shawn said, "It's not me."Zara let go of his hand, looking lost. "Not you? Then who else?""Maybe one of Xever's other close friends," Shawn suggested, taking a sip from his glass. The warm wine had gone cold, making him shiver as it went down."Xever was a good man. He was loyal to his friends. Things got really tough for him, and while

Chapter 478

The day after the heavy rain, the sky was still gray.It was just after nine in the morning when Yosef's car pulled up to Webbs' big house.On his way to work, he got a call from Ethan's top secretary. He sounded worried and told Yosef he needed to come back to Webbs' place right away because Ethan had something important to talk about.Yosef's car had barely stopped in the driveway when the secretary who had been waiting hurried over, opened his door, and said, "Mr. Webb, you're here. The boss is upstairs in his room waiting for you.""His room?" Yosef gave her a look. He then went inside the big house and climbed the stairs quickly and firmly. "Is he sick?""Yes, his blood pressure shot up to 200 last night, and he passed out. Lucky for us, the doctor was here and got it under control. They checked again at seven this morning, but it's still too high."Yosef slowed down for a moment.Ethan always had trouble with high blood pressure. Whenever he and Ethan argued, Zara would re

Ethan could not stop coughing. Yosef quickly got up to pat his back and offered him a drink of water. Yosef's face showed concern as he wondered if Ethan had any other health problems besides high blood pressure.However, Ethan did not take the water. Instead, he grabbed Yosef's wrist so tightly that the cup tipped and hot water spilled over Yosef's hand.Ethan did not even notice. He looked at Yosef with cloudy, dimly shining eyes, like an old lion still clinging to its pride.His voice, rough with coughs, sounded much older as he said, "Yosef, I know you've been mad at me since you were little because of what happened with your mom. I've let you both down. "The only thing I can do now is give you Azure Cloud Group and the Webb family. They're all yours from now on."Outside the door, Macy stood with a cold look on her face.Yosef stayed bent over, following the shape of Ethan's back. His eyes were lowered as he watched Ethan. The light from the bedside lamp shone on his cold,

Chapter 480

Yaxley was on the top left screen, grinning playfully. "Mr. Webb, someone as important as you is only half an hour late?"Yosef replied, "Had to deal with something at home. Sorry for holding you all up."In the top right corner of the screen was Stefan. He was seated in his office and calmly signing some papers. "Mr. Webb, don't pay any mind to Mr. Lark's wild stories. We've only been here for five minutes.""Only five minutes? My mistake," Yaxley said, his voice light and playful as he listened to an opera in the background. He tapped his fingers on his knee, keeping time with the music. His words were almost like a song."Lately, my memory's been a bit off. I always thought we were all working together to corner Xever, but it turns out it was just the Lark family. No wonder I've been the only one running around while the rest of you sat back, relaxed as if you were fishing. "Well, if that's how it is, I won't bother doing anything more. Let the ledger and Xever's daughter do w
