Chapter 1067 I Could Do That
Yvonne looked over at the source of the voice. The moment her eyes met Mark's, her gaze darkened. "Mark, I really want to know. How did Howard offend you?""He led a group of men this morning, wanting to kill me. If it had been anyone else, they would have been sent to hell. "I didn't kill him because he's one of your men. Wasn't I being good enough to him?" Mark smiled, but it didn't reach his eyes.He looked at Howard. "Tell me. I helped you send your daughter for a full body check-up, yet you treat me this way. How could you do this to me?""Mark, I was wrong …" Howard gulped. He begged with difficulty, "I was being rash. If you're angry, come at me. Don't hurt Jade or Ms. Y …""Since when have I said I would hurt your daughter? Don't you trust me at all?" Mark asked with feigned innocence.That frightened Howard even more. He almost wanted to prostrate himself in front of Mark.Yvonne grabbed Howard's arm and looked at Mark coldly. "Since you didn't hurt Jade, hand he
Chapter 1068 I Only Want to Protect Myself
The atmosphere suddenly turned tense.Yvonne smiled. "Mark, think about it. If I really wanted to go up against you, I could just join forces with Claude and Leonard. I could gain their trust and, at the same time, take you down. "Besides, Claude and Leonard are old. How many years do you think they have left? I just need to wait a few more years before the entire Emerald Group becomes mine. "Why should I risk offending both parties? Why should I play tricks to get you three to fight against each other to profit from it? "If this trick backfires on me, I'll die a terrible death. Don't you think so?"Yvonne raised an eyebrow. Her eyes gleamed slyly. "I'm not an idiot. I don't want to get involved in any of your power plays. From beginning to end, I only want to protect myself."Mark was quiet after listening to what Yvonne said. He looked at her for a long time in silence.Yvonne had come up with such a solid excuse within such a short time. There wasn't an ounce of sheepishne
Chapter 1069 Not There Yet
Howard was waiting for Yvonne outside the building.When he saw her coming out, he immediately went up to her, ignoring the pain in his body. "Did Mark use Jade to threaten you to do something? Don't—""No," Yvonne interrupted Howard. She held him by his arm. "You'll be able to see Jade tonight. Go get your wounds cleaned up. Don't make her worry."Howard was overjoyed. "I can see her tonight?" The next second, he shook his head frantically. "No. No. Mark isn't that nice. He must have surely asked you to do something. I can't go and see Jade …""This is something between Mark and me. I dragged you two into this." Yvonne felt guilty. She sighed and said, "But I could only get you the chance to see her once a week. I'm sorry. I'll quickly find a way to rescue her."Howard was a little disappointed, but he forced a smile. He seemed to be comforting himself. He murmured, "Once a week is enough. I just need to make sure that she's fine."Yvonne's heart ached even more when she
Chapter 1070 Don’t Let Mark off the Hook
Half an hour later, Howard came out of the mansion. Yvonne collected her thoughts. She looked at Howard getting into the car and asked, "How is Jade?""She wants to come with me." Howard's heart ached when he thought about how Jade had sobbed and pleaded with him. He choked up, unable to say another word.Yvonne could understand what he was going through at that moment. She put her hand on his shoulder. "Howard, Jade will be fine."Howard nodded but said nothing.Yvonne looked at him for a while. She quietly sighed and started the engine, driving into the night. They were silent through the entire drive.When she reached the mines, Yvonne got out of the car and walked over to Howard. Howard suddenly knelt in front of her.Yvonne was taken aback. She quickly went to help him up. "What are you doing? Stand up and talk!""No." Howard pushed Yvonne's hand away. He looked up at her with a determined and sincere gaze, despite the tears welling in his eyes. "Ms. Y. I don't know wha
Chapter 1071 An Unspoken Rejection
Yvonne was at the border for a week before heading back. Before she left, she instructed Howard to contact her immediately if something happened to Jade. She also instructed him not to do anything reckless alone. Furthermore, he wasn't to tell anyone about this before Jade was rescued, in case it caused more trouble.After this round, Howard had learned his lesson. Other than sending himself to death, he couldn't do anything that would help Yvonne. Hence, he sincerely promised her that he would listen to her.Seeing how serious Howard was, Yvonne left in relief.Her plane landed in Northerna City that evening. Yvonne had just come out of the airport when she saw Stephen standing not far away.His frostiness was a huge juxtaposition to the lively atmosphere around him. It was hard not to notice him.Yvonne secretly sighed. Was he that eager for an answer?Seeing that Yvonne wasn't moving, Stephen walked over to her instead. Yvonne braced herself and asked, "Why are you here?"
Chapter 1072 Don’t Mention Her
During Euphoria Smith's peak hour late that night, the sound of glass shattering in the VIP room filled the air in the midst of the throbbing sound of music.James stood outside the door. He had smoked quite a few cigarettes by the time Julian finally arrived. He grabbed onto Julian as if he were his savior. He asked Julian urgently, "What happened to Stephen? He asked us out to have a drink, but all he did was drown himself in alcohol. Stanley and I couldn't even stop him!"However, Julian was also stumped. "Why is Mr. Anderson here?"Stephen had been in a good mood that morning. He had specially arranged to visit a sky garden as a surprise for Yvonne. That was why Julian had been busy decorating the sky garden since that morning.He had waited until nightfall, but Stephen had been nowhere to be found. He had even tried calling Stephen a few times, but the latter hadn't answered. Without Stephen's orders, he hadn't dared to just leave, which was why he had been waiting at the
Chapter 1073 Come to Your Senses
At Miller Villa, Yvonne was on the couch talking to Jim on the phone, discussing the recent Hope Health Services operations.Jim knew Yvonne well. Even through the call, he could sense that she was a little distracted."Is something bothering you?""No …" Yvonne replied softly, clearly feeling sheepish."What can't you talk to me about? Is it about your relationship?" Jim immediately thought of Stephen. "Is he mistreating you again?""No." On the contrary, she was the one mistreating Stephen this time. But she didn't say that to Jim. If she were to explain it to him, he would only worry more.She sighed and brought up another matter, trying to distract Jim. "Grandpa, I plan to officially take over the entire Hope Health Services after a while.""What?" Jim was a little surprised. "What made you come to your senses?" He had been trying to get Yvonne to take over Hope Health Services for a long time. But she had always declined with one excuse or another. Hence, he had taken
Chapter 1074 What Nonsense
Just as Yvonne was hesitating about whether to pretend she wasn't home, she saw Stephen stumble and fall.She jumped and quickly opened the door. The next second, a limp body fell near her legs. She bent down to check on him. He reeked of alcohol. She furrowed her brows tighter.Stephen lay on the ground, looking at Yvonne's disgusted expression. He smiled. Unfortunately, he looked even uglier than if he were crying. He also looked a little silly.Yvonne was a little annoyed. "Stephen, are you so drunk that you've gotten lost? This is my house! Not yours!""I know." Stephen supported himself with both hands and sat up. He leaned against the door. "I have something to say to you.""Do you even know what you're talking about in such a state?" Yvonne looked at the Maybach outside her gate. She guessed that there must be someone in the car. She reached out and pulled Stephen by the arm. "Get up. I'll help you to your car so that you can go home."Unexpectedly, Stephen pulle
