Chapter 2146 Your Wish
Yvette opened her mouth and could not help but say, “I did keep my eyes open, and I already know what kind of person he is. You two are in the same gang, so you’re not any better than him!”The old master heard this and smiled with his eyes.“I’m different, young lady. He ruined you, but I protected you. You should thank me!”Yvette rolled her eyes.The old man glanced at her happily and smiled unconsciously. He put down the teacup and said, “Well, it’s my birthday today, so I’ll give you my birthday wish. I’ll fulfill your wish no matter what. How’s that?Yvette paused.She looked at him in shock.Was this old man a gang leader?Why was he so nice to her?Yvette paused and looked at him warily.The old master looked at her. “It’s okay if you refuse…”Yvette pursed her lips. “My wish is to go home, my own home. Is that okay?”She said it bluntly.Yvette was not a woman who had never seen the world. She had all the jewelry, bags, and clothes in the world.So, she would not
Chapter 2147 You’re Safe Now
Yvette wanted the old master to take her back. That way, she would truly be safe when she got home.However, she knew her request was somewhat excessive.Yvette was also testing the importance of the old master’s backer.If the backer was not that important, the old master would naturally refuse.But if the old master agreed...The old master looked at her and seemed to think it would be safer for him to send her home.He suddenly thought of something and stood up.“Alright. I’ll drop you off. Shall we go now?”Yvette’s heart trembled slightly.This showed that the old master’s backer was someone important.The old master’s subordinates were shocked when they saw him walking over.They looked at Yvette with a complex and surprised gaze.Yvette just walked out behind the old master as if nothing had happened.They took the elevator downstairs.The nightclub was still brightly lit.However, the vehicles on the street were mostly gone.The old master’s stretched luxury car
Chapter 2148 The Unlucky One and the Jinx
Yvette believed Nicole.She really wanted to ask Nicole to investigate Sean, but she also knew very well that Sean was dangerous, so she did not want to involve Nicole in this.What Yvette encountered was terrifying enough, so how could she drag her best friend into it?She also thought about the old master’s warning. If Yvette told the police everything without any evidence, they would not be able to arrest Sean either.What if that crazy man found out and came to look for trouble again? If that were the case, Yvette’s peaceful life would come to an end.At that thought, Yvette calmed down.“He’s just an old friend. Nicole, since I’m back, you don’t need to continue the investigation. How are you doing lately?”Nicole breathed a sigh of relief.“I’m fine. I was just so worried about your safety. Aunt Quimbey and Aunt Fiona were also worried sick when we lost contact with you. I helped to search for you but couldn’t find any clues. All of a sudden, Lance was hospitalized, and y
Chapter 2149 Who Entrusted Him?
Yvette sat there with two police officers opposite her.Initially, Yvette was very excited when she saw the police and could not wait to tell them about all her grievances in the past few days.However, she suddenly became very quiet.Yvette could not say a word.Without evidence, how could they bring Sean to justice?She sat there and listened to them absently.The police officers were also a little anxious, but somehow, they had intriguing expressions.Facing their serious inquiries, Yvette gritted her teeth. Her eyes suddenly felt sore.Her heart was moved.“Wait, I’ll tell you what happened.”Even if it was a sliver of hope, Yvette wanted to give it a shot.No matter how powerful Sean was, he was not invincible, so what if she succeeds?The police officers looked up at her.Yvette took a deep breath and told them everything she went through since New Year’s Eve, including what happened at Tattle Bar and the nightclub where the old master held his birthday party.The p
Chapter 2150 Lay Low
The Stantons did not give their all in Yvette’s case because they had too much on their hands.Back then when Nicole was in trouble, Grant got in touch with many parties, including those in the underworld.Grant really did everything he could to help Nicole.Thus, his high-profile act back then made him a target to his enemies.With one wrong step, the Stantons could lose everything.They were not as fearless as those criminals, nor would they compromise and embark on that path for Yvette’s sake.They could only provide assistance that was within their power.That was what Floyd told his children.Yvette took a deep breath, stepped forward, and hugged Nicole’s shoulders.She patted Nicole’s back and smiled. Her voice was low and hoarse as she said, “I know. Although I called you, I actually hoped that you didn’t show up. Sean was merciful to me, but he might not treat you the same way. I can’t expect others to protect me forever. I need to learn to grow up on my own. Although
Chapter 2151 Give You Everything
When Yvette heard the weak voice, she was shocked and slowly turned around.She saw that the man on the bed had opened his eyes again.This time, Lance was clearly awake. His eyes were bright and concerned.“Yvette…”He slowly raised his hand.Yvette walked over in a few steps. She suddenly teared up, and all her bottled-up emotions suddenly surged.Tears streamed down her face continuously.She did not say anything and only cried until she was out of breath.Yvette could pretend like everything was fine in front of her mother and Fiona.She could also pretend to be strong in front of Nicole and Julie.However, one look from Lance made her unload all her pent-up emotions.“I’m sorry…”She whimpered as she was in pain.Lance sighed slowly and put one hand over hers. His breathing was labored, but he said, “I don’t blame you. You’ll be fine."Even if his life was hanging by a thread, Lance still did not forget to comfort Yvette.How was this her fault?To others, Yvette m
Chapter 2152 Your Secret

Chapter 2153 Expose Herself
Zeke had a glum expression as he pointed at Yvette in front of everyone in the conference room.He did not hesitate to go against Yvette openly.“For Lance’s sake, I was going to show you some respect, but you went overboard. What right do you have to be here? Yvette, do you think that no one knows your secret?”Yvette’s face turned pale.Her eyes narrowed slightly, and her heart clenched. It made her panic for a moment.Her secret?The days Yvette went missing were her biggest secret.However, no one except the police knew about the details of this.Yvette did not even tell Nicole or Julie about it because the police told her to keep it to herself.Naturally, she would not expose herself.How could her secret be known?Zeke looked at her gloomily with a vicious gaze.He said, “Don’t think we don’t know that you’ve already found a lawyer trying to embezzle Lance’s assets. I saw our company’s lawyers going in and out of the hospital. Did you coerce Lance into giving you powe
