After a few rings, Anthony collected his thoughts before answering the call.Yvonne got straight to the point. She smiled and asked, "Mr. Leech, I'm sure you've seen the notice today, right?"Anthony furrowed his brows. He replied passive-aggressively, "Thank you for making the call to inform me.""After all, the people who have been fired were all your people. Naturally, I have to show you some consideration."Yvonne looked up at the skies out of the window. She smiled ambiguously. "You won't blame me, right?"Anthony clutched his phone so tightly that his knuckles turned white. After a moment, he forced himself to sound calm. "How could I? Although they are all my friends, I really didn't know what they were doing."He continued, "Now that you've found out about it and punished them, you're adhering to the company's policy. Everything was done reasonably. "Even if I had been in your position, I wouldn't have been able to let them continue working for Well Spring Pharma."Y
Mark left with only two subordinates. They got into a Cayenne and drove off into the night.They were followed by a tiny sedan that was hiding in the dark.Suddenly, a man appeared right in front of the sedan. The car had just started when it had to brake abruptly. The car stopped a few centimeters right in front of the man.The man quickly headed to the driver's side and knocked on the car window.Even through the glass, Gwen's face could still be clearly seen.Seeing how Gwen was refusing to roll down the window, the man knocked on the window harder once more.After a while, Gwen finally rolled down the window a little."Curtis, tell Yvonne to stop sending people to look for me. I won't go back right now. She doesn't have to worry about my situation. I'll be careful."Gwen continued, "Also, tell her not to get too close to the man called Kendrick. She shouldn't get involved with his business. If Mark finds out about her relationship with Kendrick, he won't let her go that eas
That night, Gwen followed Mark to the airport. When she found out which flight he was taking, she deduced that he was going to look for Claude and Leonard. After all, the flight he was taking was heading to the city where they lived.Thus, Gwen bought the earliest ticket possible. She planned to head to Leonard's mansion the moment she landed.Curtis understood what she was doing. He asked curiously, "Why do you think Mark is looking for Claude?""Ever since Howard's incident, Leonard and Claude's relationship with Mark has become quite strange. No. I should say that the relationship between all the Principals has been a little mysterious."Gwen paused for a while, looking at Curtis. "You've always been with Yvonne. Do you know her next step?""Yvonne has taken over Well Spring Pharma under Leonard's instructions. As for her next step …" Curtis scratched his head. "I really don't know."Gwen's frown deepened. "Why is Leonard being so nice to Yvonne? I'm sure Claude doesn't know
"Leonard, you're old. Don't get worked up so easily. Mind your body."Mark still remained calm despite Leonard's fury. "I've only arranged for people to keep an eye out for you two. It's for your own sake. After all, you two are old. If anything were to happen, I'm afraid I wouldn't be on time."Leonard sneered. "You're just afraid that we two old farts will still make your life miserable, right?""You're being too serious," Mark smirked menacingly. "I've managed to come this far. Do you think I'm still afraid of you two? I just don't want to see you doing things that would make me unhappy."Mark looked at Leonard intently. "You've gotten into a fight with Claude because of Yvonne, right? You sure are gutsy to still side with her.""What nonsense are you talking about?" Leonard's gaze darkened. "Claude and I are doing well. Stop—""Grandpa Leonard, what happened to you and Grandpa?" Jane's voice suddenly rang out.Leonard was stunned. He immediately turned to look. "Jane, why
A thousand thoughts flashed through Mark's mind. From his understanding of Leonard, the sly fox, the only reason he would dare to say that must be because he has another trick up his sleeve. Or perhaps he had already sent Claude somewhere else.If Mark were to still insist on a search and nothing came up, he wouldn't be able to explain himself.At that thought, Mark smiled and said ambiguously, "It looks like I've miscalculated a step."Then, he got up and nodded at Leonard. "I'm sorry for intruding today. I hope you don't blame me."Leonard said nothing. His gaze was icy.Mark snickered nonchalantly and headed for the door. He suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Jane. "By the way, Ms. Ford, you only have one grandfather. You have to pay more attention to him."Jane was stunned. She looked at Mark's retreating figure in a daze. She slowly came to her senses. His words had a double meaning.Mark emphasized that she only had one grandfather. He was hinting at he
When Yvonne received the message, she raised an eyebrow. How would Leonard get Claude to obediently hand over his shares?She had just received a message from Curtis the day before that he and Gwen were heading over to Leonard's mansion and that they were following Mark.She guessed that during that time, Leonard had most probably found a way to deal with Claude after meeting Mark.It was getting harder for her to predict the way things were going. She was truly curious as to what was going on with Leonard and Claude.It was a pity she wouldn't get an answer, even if she asked.She thought about it for a while before replying, "Alright. Thank you, Leonard."Right this moment, a knock came on her door. She placed her phone down. "Enter."Jim entered and handed her a file. "This is a home visit order we received this morning. They appointed you personally. The client is a 106-year-old lady. The visit is scheduled for the middle of next month.""106 years old?" Yvonne was surprise
"I'm not going back," Gwen refused coldly. "As long as Mark is still alive, I won't be able to live a normal life.""I'm already finding ways to deal with—""That is your own business," Gwen interrupted Yvonne. "As for the grudge I have with Mark, I'll deal with it on my own.""But …" Yvonne was just about to say something when she saw Curtis standing behind Gwen, waving his hands at her and asking her to stop.Yvonne frowned and swallowed her words back down. She corrected herself. "You can continue, but you have to let Curtis follow you. I can't accept not hearing from you at all."Yvonne added immediately to shut Gwen up, "This isn't up for discussion."Curtis found the time to chime in. "Yvonne, don't worry. I'll look after Gwen. I won't let anything happen to her. If there is any danger, I'll be the first one to rush ahead."Yvonne said, "You stay safe too. You two need to keep watch over each other. You two must return to me safely."Curtis smiled innocently. "Okay!"
At the same time, Leonard knocked on Jane's door.Jane had just put on a facial sheet mask on her face. She mumbled, "Who is it?""It's me."Hearing Leonard's voice, Jane opened the door. "Grandpa Leonard. It's late. Is everything alright?"Leonard smiled affectionately. "It's nothing. I just wanted to check on how you're settling in, so I came over to have a chat with you.""With you around, I feel great," Jane said while letting Leonard enter her room. She plucked the facial mask off her face. "Have a seat. I'll go wash my face.""Okay." Leonard entered. While listening to the tap running, he reached into his pocket and pressed the record button on his recording pen.Soon after, Jane came out, wiping her face with a towel. She sat on the couch.Leonard slowly said, "I have something I need to do next month. Do you want to come with me?"Jane was curious. "What is it?""It's an important deal. I've been talking to the other party for a long time. They only recently agreed
