Stephen led Yvonne to a Porsche Cayenne. He opened the door to reveal three men who had been tied up. Their mouths were gagged with a cloth. Since they couldn't speak, they could only express their defiance and rage through their eyes.Yvonne was in no rush to question them. She merely crossed her arms across her chest. "When did they start following me?""They haven't started," Stephen calmly replied."What?" Yvonne was a little confused. She turned to look at Stephen. "What do you mean?""I have men on Mark's side too." Stephen turned to the three men. "These three were instructed to follow you. The moment they landed here, we captured them."Yvonne rolled her eyes. "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you had men spying on Mark?""I prefer to attack head-on rather than waiting."Yvonne made a mental note to get used to Stephen's way of doing things first and asking for forgiveness later instead of asking for permission.Stephen looked at her. "There's another thing. My
"I …" The man was at a loss for words. He started sweating profusely."Let's do this instead." Yvonne said slowly, "List out your family members. I'll get people to take care of them. That way, you don't have to worry about them, and you can work for me without any distractions. I can fully trust you all too."The man was bewildered. He looked at Yvonne in a daze. He was at a loss for words.They all knew that Yvonne "taking care" of their family was actually a threat. The fact that she said it so nonchalantly terrified them.Seeing how the man wasn't replying to her, she said rather impatiently, "Don't test my patience. I don't have the time to waste with you."The man immediately came to his senses and said frantically, "Ms. Y, we'll do whatever you say!"The other two men nodded fervently in agreement as well.Yvonne was satisfied. "Alright. At least you guys are clever." Then, she instructed the subordinate in the car, "Note down their information. After making sure that
A week later, the news of Well Spring Pharma donating 50 million dollars' worth of medical supplies to Carrington and Hertz was published on their website.The vice president and the manager of the PR department attended the donation ceremony, which was streamed live. The process of the entire ceremony was open and known to the entire public.That day, many people watched the livestream."Now that the old CEO of Well Spring Pharma is dead, are the staff trying to sell the company off? Which kind-hearted soul among the upper management decided to donate such a huge amount?""Chuck Jensen is the scum of the earth. Even the money that he earned was dirty. Donating it away is doing a good thing!""Maybe the PR department thinks of it that way too. They're doing charity work to show the public that they care. That way, they can draw a line between them and Chuck Jensen too."The comments online were heated. Most of them thought that the donation was a good thing. Of course, some looke
The donation ceremony brought nothing but good to Well Spring Pharma.The executives expressed their admiration for Yvonne. She managed to get such a great partnership with Carrington and Hertz at such a crucial moment. It had completely saved the company.The company's employees' skepticism also died down.That day, after the meeting, Yvonne was still discussing with Rory when she heard someone ask, "Ms. Miller, are you free to talk for a while?"Yvonne looked up. "Mr. Leech, how can I help you?""No. I just wanted to talk to you about something." Anthony Leech, the vice president, said with a smile, "Carrington and Hertz has done Well Spring Pharma such a huge favor this time. We should probably treat them to a meal."He continued, "You took part in the entire drafting of the agreement this time. So I haven't met with the person in charge of Carrington and Hertz. I'm the vice president of Well Spring Pharma. Shouldn't I thank them too?"Yvonne looked at Anthony for a little
During dinner that night, Yvonne told Stephen about Anthony.Stephen thought about it for a while. "Almost half of the executives of Well Spring Pharma left. Do you want to hire a batch of new people to help you keep an eye on Anthony Leech?""I thought about that too." Yvonne supported her chin with her hand. She looked at Stephen with a smile. "From what I know, the Anderson Group has a strict hiring process. If Well Spring Pharma were to recruit by Anderson Group's standards, surely we would be able to recruit a bunch of great people, right?"Stephen looked at her. "Ms. Miller, are you eyeing Anderson Group's talent pool?"Yvonne chuckled. "You know me well, Mr. Anderson."Stephen looked at her dotingly. "Sure, I'll send over a group of trustworthy people to Well Spring Pharma.""Thank you, Mr. Anderson!"Yvonne was elated. She fed Stephen a piece of steak. "This is my thank-you gift."Stephen looked at Yvonne, who was smiling at him. His heart fluttered. He opened his m
When she heard him, Yvonne placed her work down and looked at Anthony. "What could be so urgent that you even forgot your manners?"Anthony stopped. He thought about the new recruits and got infuriated once more."Let's not care about manners first. I would like an explanation from you as to what our basic operating procedures for the company are now."His expression darkened. He questioned, "How could you decide to recruit in large quantities to fill executive vacancies without holding a meeting?""We're running out of time, and we're in dire need of talent. If we run the so-called operating procedure that you mentioned, will Well Spring Pharma be back up and running in no time?" Yvonne calmly asked and leaned back in her chair.She looked at Anthony. "Of course, if you have any better ideas, I'm open to suggestions."Anthony was at a loss for words. Obviously, he couldn't openly say that he was unhappy because he suspected Yvonne was planting moles to keep an eye on him!"I kn
After dealing with Well Spring Pharma, Yvonne and Stephen returned to Hope Health Services.Before the plane took off, Yvonne received an agreement from Neil via email. She opened the file to have a look before passing it to Stephen.She explained, "I handed all the resources that Leonard gave me to Neil so he could handle them. The draft I made was a 50-50 split, but Neil changed it to 30-70. I never thought he would be this honest in business.""Hmm," Stephen responded. He looked through the agreement. "Given Neil's current position, profit isn't that important to him anymore. He's most likely thinking of using your power to suppress Mark's power in the metal business."Stephen added, "If he wants to maintain a long-term collaboration with you, he has to give you this little profit. There's no need to suffer a great loss just by trying to save a little."Stephen slowly came to a conclusion. "It looks like Neil has fully accepted you now."Yvonne slowly raised an eyebrow. "I c
That night, Jade slowly opened her eyes. The pain on her forehead was so excruciating that she gasped. "Ouch …""You had 12 stitches on your forehead. Don't move." Jade turned to look. Her eyes instantly sparkled. "Yvonne, you're really back!""If I hadn't returned any sooner, you would have starved yourself to death in your room." Yvonne noticed that the IV drip was almost finished. She got up to change a different bottle. She said curtly, "Your body can't take such torment. You probably would have died before you even managed to get your revenge. Don't you think it isn't worth it?""I …" Jade pursed her lips, feeling aggrieved. "I thought you didn't want to take me along. Also … I was afraid that something had happened to you.""What could happen to me?" Yvonne sat back down on the chair. She looked at Jade seriously and said, "You can't rush revenge. I need to slowly plan it out too, to ensure that there will be no mistakes."Jade didn't seem to understand. "You weren
