Chapter 1282 Miserable
"This isn't my first time treating your gunshot wounds. Besides, your injuries almost got you killed the last time."Either way, I'm a doctor. As long as there are injuries that I can treat, I'll have to treat them."Yvonne said without looking up, "Also, you have hidden so many things from me. One extra matter wouldn't make a difference. You can tell me when you feel ready."Kendrick was at a loss for words.Without mentioning her other qualities, the fact that Yvonne could maintain such calm and rationality about a suspicious gunshot was way beyond his expectations.Seeing Kendrick not respond, Yvonne smiled. "Since you never planned on telling me in the first place, why did you ask?"Kendrick felt as if Yvonne could read his mind. It was a first for him, so he felt a little awkward. Then, he looked away and said, "Alright, you can do your thing."Yvonne chuckled. She looked at the wound in detail. She still couldn't help but say, "You're really a tough one."…Half an hou
Chapter 1283 One Always Has to Fight
"I got unlucky. I met unreasonable people."Kendrick muttered, "Once I get better, I'm going to make them pay! How dare they steal three million dollars worth of stock?""Who would be bold enough to steal from you?""They are just a bunch of minions."Otto chuckled. "You've gotten to where you are today, yet someone still dares to mess with you?""My profession is a dangerous one. You better cherish the days you get to see me. Perhaps one day, I'll just drop—""Stop." Otto stopped Kendrick and said curtly, "Watch your words. Don't curse yourself all day."Kendrick laughed nonchalantly. "Don't worry. I'm a tough one. So many years have passed, and I'm still alive and kicking, right? Weren't you asking me why I was near that castle?"Kendrick looked at Otto with a raised eyebrow. "It was a coincidence. I saw the address on the photo of the invitation you sent me. The deal happened to just be nearby."He continued, "Before I left, I thought if anything were to happen to me, I c
Chapter 1284 I Would Never Touch Your Men
For the next two days, Otto ignored Kendrick. Other than sending meals to him three times a day, he didn't say a single word to Kendrick.They were living under the same roof, yet their relationship was so strained. Kendrick could barely take it anymore.When Otto brought him breakfast that morning, he tried to find a topic to talk about. "Is Yvonne coming to change my dressing today?"Otto responded, "Hmm." He placed Kendrick's breakfast by the nightstand before leaving. Kendrick immediately grabbed him by the wrist."My good brother, I'll apologize, alright?" Kendrick pleaded. "I'm getting nauseous from seeing your glum face all day long. If this continues on, I'll get depressed."Otto shrugged him off. "You're not afraid of death, so why would you be afraid of depression?""You can't put it like that—"Right at this moment, the doorbell rang.Kendrick's eyes brightened. "Is that Yvonne?""I'll go get the door," Otto said, leaving the bedroom.Kendrick was thinking about
Chapter 1285 I'm Really Worth a Lot
Kendrick had no expression on his face. "How did you capture them?""It was a piece of cake. I even helped you interrogate them. They confessed." Mark observed Kendrick's reaction before casually adding, "They were under the orders of Cory Sloan. Apparently, whoever killed you would be rewarded 50 million dollars.""Oh?" Kendrick sneered. "I never thought my life would cost that much.""Cory has crossed the line. Aren't you planning to hit back?" Mark asked with interest."This is my business." Kendrick didn't look at Mark. "Leave them here. I'll handle it."Mark said nothing. He merely observed Kendrick. He seemed a little unhappy.After a while, he broke the silence. "Fine. Since they are my gifts to you, you can do whatever you like with them. "But I'll still have to remind you. No matter what, having an extra friend is always safer than having an extra enemy."Mark's gaze sharpened. "Get well soon."Kendrick's gaze darkened as he watched Mark leave with his men.In
Chapter 1286 I’m Not Afraid of Anyone
Five minutes later, the doorbell rang once more.Otto thought that Mark had come back. But when he opened the door, he was stunned. He subconsciously asked, "Why are you here?""To change Kendrick's dressing." Yvonne sized Otto up. "Who did you think I was when you opened the door?"Before Otto could answer, Yvonne added, "Mark Miller?"Otto was stunned. "You saw him?""Hmm. What a coincidence. When I arrived at the lobby, I almost bumped into him."Luckily, Yvonne had reacted quickly. She had hid in a corner, so Mark hadn't noticed her. She had guessed that Mark was most likely at the hotel for Kendrick.When she saw Otto's reaction, she got her answer."Why did Mark come looking for Kendrick?""Come in first." Otto turned to the side to let Yvonne in. Then, he closed the door. "Mark brought men for Kendrick.""Men?" Yvonne was confused. She followed Otto to the bedroom and saw those men prostrating themselves on the floor, kowtowing nonstop. They hit their heads hard
Chapter 1287 Not to Be Trifled With
After leaving the hotel, Yvonne headed straight to Well Spring Pharma. The moment she entered her office, Rory followed her in."Ms. Miller, Mr. Leech has handed over his duties and sent the HR department his application for a long vacation. He will only return after New Year's." Rory handed the approval letter to Yvonne. "The HR department needs your signature."Yvonne accepted the letter and signed it swiftly."Truth be told, I never thought that Mr. Leech would leave so easily. From the way he had done things in the past, he would have normally tried to stay."Rory looked at the letter and commented, "You're amazing, Ms. Miller."Yvonne chuckled gently. "What did I do? I just gave him a talking-to during the meeting.""No." Rory went in closer and said mysteriously, "Ms. Miller, didn't you privately teach him a lesson too? When he came over to the office to hand over his duties, he was covered in injuries. "He said he had taken a fall, but no one believed him. He had cle
Chapter 1288 Come Back Soon
Later, Stephen carried Britney to bed and tucked her in before returning to Yvonne once more.Yvonne had already finished showering. She was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the city's skyline. She didn't notice Stephen approaching her."What are you looking at?" Stephen's voice rang from above her."It's snowing." Yvonne placed her hand on the window as if she were trying to touch a snowflake. "There will be a layer of snow tomorrow. We can take Britney and Elvin to have fun in the snow.""My flight is tomorrow."Yvonne was a little stunned. She felt empty inside. She looked at Stephen's reflection in the window and forced a smile. "I almost forgot that you still need to head back to Neil.""I'll be back by New Year's."Stephen went in closer and placed his hand on the back of Yvonne's hand. He said gently, "By then, the snow will be heavier. It'll be more fun.""Hmm." Yvonne leaned back into Stephen's chest, letting his woody scent and body warmth envelo
Chapter 1289 The Lion Tamer
The sound of the door slamming was so loud that even Yvonne had a fright in the bedroom. She helped Britney into her clothes before rushing to the door. "El, who is it? Who came?""The cleaning lady," Elvin replied emotionlessly. "I told her we don't need housekeeping services for now."Yvonne didn't question him. She continued putting on a jacket for Britney.However, the doorbell rang once more.Yvonne sensed something wasn't right. She quickly dressed Britney up and left the bedroom. She noticed Elvin eating his breakfast, ignoring the doorbell.She furrowed her brows and went to open the door.Otto was standing right by the door, looking rather troubled."Mr. Carrington, why are you here?" Yvonne was surprised. She awkwardly explained, "M-Maybe Elvin thought you were a stranger and shut the door on you.""It's fine." Otto smiled. "It's good that the kid's cautious. He should be careful of strangers."Yvonne smiled. She turned to look at Elvin. "El, come and apologi
