Chapter 351

Over the past few years, Zac had been secretly visiting skincare clinics for facials and stocking up on sheet masks to use whenever he found the time. Sticking to his workout routine was non-negotiable as well. All of this was because he worried that Helen might find him old and unattractive. At 32 years old, he was already four years older than Helen, and she often seemed drawn to youthful, boyish celebrities. That only motivated him to put in extra effort. He refused to let himself be overshadowed by younger rivals. Pulling his eyes away from his computer screen, Zac looked at her as she walked in and said in a calm tone, “You’re here.” “Why did you call me over? Don’t tell me you wanted me to watch you work,” Helen said casually as she pulled out a chair and sat across from him. “Of course not…” Before he could finish, there was a knock on the office door. “Come in,” Zac called. An assistant entered, carrying a stack of files. “Dr. White, these are the monthl

Jacob sneered coldly. “That wasn’t your tone a moment ago—you were practically begging for my help.” His eyes glinted with malice, and his voice, rising in pitch, carried the same danger as a snake hissing before a strike. He leaned in aggressively, pressing his full weight onto Emma’s back. Emma let him move as he pleased, neither resisting nor reciprocating. Her tone was cold and cutting. “You actually believe what a woman says in bed? How pathetic! You’re getting more naive as you get older.” Jacob’s eyes narrowed, his expression darkening with anger at her mockery. Emma shoved him off, picked up her skirt from where it had been tossed, and began putting it back on. “You’re nowhere near Justin Yates’s level,” she said mockingly as she straightened her clothes. “Even if you look alike, what’s in your head is completely different.” Jacob, in stark contrast, looked as composed as ever. No matter what had just transpired, all it took was a quick adjustment of his suit

“Let me go, Jacob!”Emma struggled, but Jacob firmly gripped her wrist, dragging her into the rehabilitation center. With a loud bang, he forcefully pushed open a door on the first floor. Without breaking stride, he pulled her inside. The icy expression on his face and his unsettling silence sent a wave of fear through Emma. “Where is this? What are you trying to do?” she demanded, her voice laced with both anger and apprehension. Jacob turned her body, forcing her to look at the elderly man lying on the hospital bed. Emma gasped, startled. It was only then that she noticed there was someone else in the room. An old man lay on the bed, his face twisted with paralysis, one side of his mouth drooping. The pale moonlight illuminated his features, and though it was late, he wasn’t asleep. His wide, unblinking eyes stared intently at the intruders who had barged in. It was none other than Mr. Yates Sr.—the grandfather of both Justin and Jacob. After passing control

Jacob’s hand slid along the seam of Emma’s dress, slipping underneath. Emma struggled, unwilling to partake in such a display in front of the bedridden old man. Jacob paid no attention to her resistance, continuing his actions without hesitation. On the hospital bed, Mr. Yates Sr. lay motionless, his wide, furious eyes fixed on them. His mouth hung crookedly open, emitting guttural growls of rage. Though paralyzed, his body jerked and strained in frustration, as if desperate to rise and reprimand his disgraceful grandson. The heart monitor beside the bed began to beep erratically, its lines spiking wildly. The shrill alarm echoed through the room. Emma shoved at Jacob with all her strength. “Stop it! Let’s go! Someone’s going to come in and see us!” Jacob finally lifted his head, glancing at the furious Mr. Yates Sr. He adjusted Emma’s clothes before leading her out of the room. Not long after they left, the elderly caretaker, who had been sleeping in the next room

Stella straightened her back, her tone full of self-righteousness. “Heidi, that’s not fair! Harry is upset because Dad is seriously ill. What’s wrong with him crying? But you, talking about death so casually, are you hoping for Dad to pass away sooner?” “You—” Heidi was so furious she was momentarily speechless, pointing at Stella for a long time without finding the words to respond. Justin’s cold stare silenced Stella instantly. Just then, the doctor emerged from the examination room, mask in place. “The patient is stable for now.” “Thank goodness!” Heidi exhaled in relief, looking upward and clasping her hands in gratitude.The doctor hesitated before continuing. “The episode was caused by acute emotional distress, which led to a sudden onset of symptoms,” he explained gently. “Given the patient’s age, even if he recovers from this, his time may be limited. I recommend the family start making preparations.”Noticing the hospital director, Zac, waiting alongside the fami

“They better not stay and end up stressing Mr. Yates Sr. to death,” Zac thought to himself, keeping the remark private. The internal dynamics of the Yates family might not be apparent to outsiders, but Zac, as a semi-insider, understood them all too well. Justin staying around wasn’t a concern. His worries were directed at Harry and Stella. The tense atmosphere lingered until Justin turned and led Heidi away. Only after seeing the bodyguards stationed outside the hospital room, preventing entry, did Harry and Stella reluctantly leave the hallway. Zac instructed the night nurse to finalize the necessary paperwork, then caught up with Justin. “Mrs. Yates, I need a word with Justin,” Zac said. Heidi nodded. “Go ahead.” Justin and Zac stepped into the stairwell. Justin pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag. Zac, following his lead, lit one as well. Exhaling a puff of smoke, Zac said, “Mr. Yates Sr. doesn’t have much time left. Be prepared, and don’t l

“Emma’s been with him for five years?” Heidi thought.She turned sharply, her glare piercing as she fixed her son with a questioning look. Didn’t he promise there would be no involvement with Emma anymore?Justin’s brows furrowed, his gaze sharp and icy as he shot a cutting look at Jacob. In a firm, measured tone, he said, “No. She and I have no... relationship.”“It’s not like that, Mr. Jacob!” Emma quickly interjected, her tone anxious, her expression pitiful as she rushed to deny it. But her demeanor, coupled with her words, only made it seem like she was trying to cover up the truth. Justin’s displeased gaze fell on her, making it clear he wasn’t happy she had spoken up. Her explanation only made things worse. Meeting his eyes, Emma couldn’t figure out what she had done wrong. Feeling even more wronged, she lowered her head in silence. Heidi rolled her eyes. She had no patience for such theatrics. “Always crying around Justin like she’s been wronged, and then turning in

“How old was Justin when he took over the company? He had no experience and hadn’t contributed a thing. Meanwhile, you worked yourself to the bone for the company, only for it to become someone else’s prize. Think about yourself, but more importantly, think about your son. Do you really want Jacob to always live in Justin’s shadow? Scraping by on the crumbs Justin decides to toss his way?”Stella’s voice grew more heated as she spoke, her emotions bubbling over.Ten years ago, the company should have been theirs, but it was handed to Justin for nothing. Now that Mr. Yates Sr. was about to die, they were merely reclaiming what rightfully belonged to them. What was so wrong about that? Harry remained silent, his eyes darting as his thoughts churned. His drooping eyelids, a result of age, did little to hide the calculating glint in his gaze. “Hey! Say something!” Stella snapped, rushing after her husband. She couldn’t believe she had married such a spineless man. *Heidi

Jacob slid his hands into his pockets, a faint smirk curling at the corners of his mouth. “What’s this? You were scared stiff at the rehab center, and now you’re cursing my grandfather?” Emma frowned. “Can you take this seriously for once? He’s already in the hospital because of you. Either he dies and takes our secret to the grave, or he recovers and drags us both down with him!” Her tone sharpened as she snapped, “Don’t tell me you’re suddenly getting sentimental and playing the family card. You’ve got three lives to lose, while I’ve only got one!”Jacob chuckled softly, lowering his head to meet her gaze. “Relax. I already said I’d handle it.” A car pulled up, and Emma threw him a final warning. “Make sure you wipe the rehab center’s security footage clean.”She turned to open the car door, but Jacob grabbed her wrist, spinning her around to face him. Before she could react, he leaned down and kissed her—a brief, deliberate act. Releasing her, he smirked mischievously. “

“Oh, so that’s what you’ve been planning this whole time. Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” Stella’s annoyance melted away as she realized her husband was still on her side. She immediately offered, “My dad knows Mr. Yates Sr.’s lawyer. First thing in the morning, I’ll have him set up a meeting for you.”The cloud over Harry’s face lifted, and he kissed her cheek in excitement. “I knew marrying you was the right choice!”Stella beamed, playfully swatting his arm. “We’ve been married for years. Aren’t you worried someone might see?”“So what if they do? And anyway, who’s around this late at the hospital?” Stella’s smile grew wider at Harry’s comment, her mood visibly lifting.“By the way, where’s Jacob? Didn’t he say he’d be here? We’re about to leave, and he hasn’t shown up yet.” Growing concerned, she pulled out her phone to call him.The phone rang a few times before the call was abruptly declined.“What’s he up to now?” Stella muttered, frowning at the screen. “Don’t tell me h
