Chapter 1148 Dealing With the Devil
"It's too much of an honor for you to be here at Hope, Mr. Jensen," Jim said with a darkened gaze. "Please leave as soon as possible. If not, don't blame me for being rude to you."Under Jim's stern gaze, Chuck slowly finished his coffee and stood up. "Alright, since I'm not welcome, I'll leave."Jim was a little caught off guard by Chuck's cooperation. Seeing Chuck leave, Jim blurted, "Are you really treating Jade sincerely, or do you have ulterior motives?"Chuck stopped in his tracks. "If I said I was doing it sincerely, would you believe me?"Jim was silent.Chuck chuckled. "Sir Jim, you have too much prejudice against me. Why bother asking me this?"Jim furrowed his brows. Seeing Chuck walking further away from him, he instructed his subordinate, "Go and keep an eye on Chuck. Make sure he leaves the headquarters, then report it back to me.""Yes, sir."Chuck had left the café not long after when he realized he was being followed. He got in the car and made a call. "How i
Chapter 1149 Can You Guys Do It or Not
After Chuck left, Jade's condition deteriorated day by day. Sometimes, she would even sleep for the entire afternoon.However, they couldn't find the cause of the problem. Even Jim was panicking, let alone Howard.Howard might not say anything, but different emotions and resentment were bubbling up in him, driving him mad.That day, Howard looked at the doctors around Jade's bed. None of them could come up with a solid treatment plan. He could no longer hold back. He yelled, "Can you guys do it or not?"He shoved the doctors away and said loudly, "How long is my daughter going to continue to stay in bed?""We have been trying to come up with a solu—""Well, have you come up with it yet?" Howard was furious. The more he looked at the doctors, the more useless he thought they were. They were all doctors, but why could only Chuck get Jade better?With such a comparison, Howard was extremely unhappy with Chuck being forced to leave. When Jim came into Jade's ward to pacify the s
Chapter 1150 Are You Looking for a Heart
When Jim had made Chuck leave, he had immediately called and informed Yvonne about what had happened.However, back then, he hadn't gotten a clear idea about the situation, so he hadn't explained much to Yvonne.Later, he had tried asking Howard a few times, but the latter had been emotionally fraught, so Jim hadn't been able to get anything out of him.Now that Yvonne was asking him about it, he tried to piece a few clues together for her."According to Howard, the night that Chuck was caught, Jade seemed to have remembered some things before she passed out." Jim sighed. "Which was why Howard was sure that if the doctors hadn't shown up, Jade could have regained her memory that night.""How sure is he that Jade had successfully recalled those memories?" Yvonne asked."He said that Jade was very frightened. She kept pleading. It was a pity that she ended up having a fever that night. After the fever subsided, she no longer remembered anything."Jim furrowed his brows and looke
Chapter 1151 One Life for Another Life
The other person seemed to be worried that Yvonne might mistake their message for a prank, so they soon sent a second message. "Kendrick Beck here."Yvonne furrowed her brows a little. If Kendrick hadn't texted her, she would have almost forgotten about him.Was Kendrick that amazing? Even they couldn't find a heart, so how could he?Yvonne decided to try her luck. She replied to Kendrick, "Where is your donor?"Kendrick replied, "Meet me at Garden Café tomorrow at 3. I'll show it to you."Yvonne asked, "When did you return?"There was no reply.She looked at her phone glumly. He clearly had no intention of saying another single word.…The next day, Yvonne entered the café punctually to see Kendrick sitting by the window, drinking his coffee.He was dressed in a black leather jacket and an army green shirt, and he was still wearing his sunglasses. He looked like the boss of a crime gang.He noticed Yvonne looking at him. He turned to look at her and took off his sunglasses.
Chapter 1152 Don't Get Too Cocky
Yvonne was so furious that she laughed. "I don't know what you mean by 'suffering'. I only know that every single life is precious. They aren't items that you can just bargain with."Yvonne pushed the file back toward Kendrick. "A piece of advice—don't ever do a thing like this again."Kendrick furrowed his brows. "I'm not doing that sort of business. If it weren't for the fact that you needed it, I wouldn't have looked for these people."He had gotten his subordinates to collect this data from the slums. Those who were willing to offer their hearts were people at their wit's end. They desperately needed the money to help their family escape the hellish life in the slums.If he didn't need it, the lives of those people would be as unimportant as an ant to him. No one would ever question if they died or not. They would never fetch such a high price.In Kendrick's eyes, this was a very good deal, which was why he didn't feel guilty at all. Yvonne was pretending as if she was stand
Chapter 1153 That Day Will Never Come
When Yvonne returned to Hope, she was still thinking about Kendrick. Without realizing it, she walked up to Jade's ward.Coincidentally, Howard had just come out of the ward and bumped into Yvonne. "Ms. Y."Yvonne looked at him and came to her senses. She said awkwardly, "I'm here to see Jade.""She's just fallen asleep. Could you come back later?""I see …" Yvonne looked at the ward. "Alright, I'll come back at a later time."Seeing Yvonne turn and leave, Howard called her out in hesitation. "Ms. Y, can we talk?"Yvonne nodded and smiled without giving it any second thought. "Sure."Then, they headed to the garden for a walk.Howard found a bench under a huge tree and invited Yvonne to have a seat next to him.The leaves rustled above them under the light breeze.Howard took a deep breath and said slowly, "I can see that Jade's situation is bad. She doesn't have much time left, right? Lesser than you all predicted?'Yvonne was stunned. She hadn't managed to think of a way
Chapter 1154 Act Like a Father
After talking to Howard, Yvonne was still worried.She asked Jim and Curtis to meet her in her office and told them what Howard said to her.Jim was stunned. "How could Howard think this way? We would never use his heart for Jade. Jade will never agree to it either!"Yvonne nodded. "Yes, I agree, but I'm afraid Howard won't listen to me.""So …" Curtis chimed in. "You're telling us this so that we'll keep an eye on him in case he does anything stupid?""Yes. Knowing Howard, he would really do something as stupid as sacrificing his life for Jade." Yvonne looked glum. "You two have to keep a tight eye on him."Curtis nodded. "Okay. I won't make any mistakes again this time."Yvonne knew what he was talking about. She furrowed her brows. "Curtis, you're not at fault for Chuck's matter. You don't have to—""You don't have to console me," Curtis said without any change in his expression. "If I hadn't gotten hurt and had kept a close eye on Chuck, Howard wouldn't have had the cha
Chapter 1155 Howard Left
The next morning, Jim and Curtis headed to Howard's room together. They wanted to invite him to join them for breakfast so that they could talk.However, there was no response from him, even though they had knocked on his door for a long time.Curtis was alarmed. He knocked the door down with force. They rushed into the room to see that it was empty, with only a note left addressed to Yvonne.Soon, Yvonne received the note. She read it and furrowed her brows. "Howard left.""Did he say where he was going?" Jim asked anxiously.Yvonne shook her head. "He only told me to take care of Jade. He said he had to do something important."At that moment, Yvonne thought about what Howard had said to her in the garden the day before. It turned out that the important thing he had mentioned wasn’t taking care of Jade but something else, which he wasn’t planning on telling her.If she had sensed something was wrong back then, she would have forced Howard to tell her. It was too bad that she
