Chapter 1419 A Fishing Game
Ever since that day, there had been no news from Edith.Otto secretly arranged for someone to head back to the country to track Agatha. No matter what, he had to find out everything about that child.Without realizing it, Otto had already spent more than a week at Hope Health Services.That day, Calbert lay in the shade of the tree on the lawn, enjoying the sun's warmth as usual. Otto lay next to him. Otto looked at the sunlight shining through between the tree's branches and leaves. He couldn't help but lament, "No wonder you like to stay here so much."A peaceful life like this was so rare for people like them.Ever since Otto had been old enough to remember, he had never stopped to relax, not even once. He had completed his studies and taken over the family business. For 20 years, he hadn't dared to relax one bit. The days he had spent at Hope were something he had never dared to dream of."I wanted to bring you here before." Calbert had a book over his face, so his voice
Chapter 1420 I Take It Back
"Cory Sloan might interfere with the cruise meeting too." Yvonne looked at Calbert. "During the deal the last time, Cory pulled out at the last minute. As a way of compensation, he's chosen to help Mark at the cruise meeting."Calbert immediately sat up. He asked seriously, "Are you saying that Sloan will also be on the cruise?""We can't be sure of that." Yvonne wasn't surprised at Calbert's reaction. Since Cory had gotten involved, Calbert would definitely need to be more alert. "He might not be there, but he will surely do something. He will probably also help Mark go up against me in the future."Yvonne sighed. "It's a pity that you'll only be helping me until the cruise meeting is over. Without your help, I really don't know how to go up against Cory later.""I take back what I said!" Calbert said. "The situation is different right now. If Sloan is helping Mark, I can't just sit back and do nothing."He had initially wanted to leave Yvonne so he could focus on taking Cory
Chapter 1421 Still the Same
Time stood still.Stephen sneered. He deliberately lowered his voice, sounding dangerous. "It looks like you've chosen to ignore what I said before, Mr. Carrington."Yvonne immediately tried to smooth things over. She reached out to grab Stephen while looking at Otto. "Mr. Carrington, you will have other chances to see the world. Maybe not this time."Then, Yvonne signaled at Calbert, asking him to leave with Otto.Calbert immediately understood. He wrapped his arm around Otto's shoulder. "We're done with the discussion. Let's head back."Otto didn't want to cause Yvonne further trouble. He hesitated for a while before he left with Calbert.Once they were gone, Yvonne looked at Stephen. "What were you saying to Mr. Carrington before?""Nothing." Stephen slowly looked at the closed door. Without giving any context, he said, "He won't give up that easily.""Mr. Carrington and Calbert are good friends. If he really wants to go up on the cruise, we can't stop him."Yvonne looked a
Chapter 1422 The Final Straw
Gwen walked in and approached Yvonne.Before she could say anything, Yvonne stopped her. "Don't tell me that you want to go on the cruise.""Why?" Gwen stopped in her tracks. She said with indignation, "Yvonne, you decided to trust someone like Calbert, so why don't you trust me? I already said I can protect you—""Gwen." Yvonne interrupted and walked up to Gwen"I know that you're trying to help me, but I hope you'll stay back instead of hoping with me. All the people who are closest to me are here at Hope Health Services. I was only able to come this far because I was trying to protect them."Yvonne looked at Gwen earnestly. "Mark is hiding in the dark. I'm out in the open. I don't know what his next move will be. What if he strikes while I'm not around?"Gwen was a little stunned. "You want me to stay back to protect Elvin and the others?"Yvonne nodded. "I'll only be relieved if I know that you're watching my back.""But …" Gwen hesitated. "How could I stand back and let
Chapter 1423 At Least He's by Her Side
On the day they were supposed to leave, Yvonne noticed Otto in Calbert's car. She looked at Calbert a little perplexedly.Calbert shrugged his shoulders, expressing that he couldn't talk sense into Otto.Otto pretended not to notice their interaction. He was looking at the messages on his phone.Ever since Agatha had returned to the country, she handed over the management of the family business to Otto's second uncle, Robert Carrington.Before this, Robert had been spending his days in the office comfortably. When the responsibilities landed on his shoulders, he had become so busy that he had barely been able to catch his breath. On top of that, he wasn't efficient in his work and often made mistakes.Otto's assistant, Zac, didn't want to speak ill of the Carrington family, but Robert had gone out of control."Mr. Carrington, if you don't come back soon, the company will be in big trouble! Please don't blame me for being nosy, but I really don't understand what your uncle is do
Chapter 1424 Much Crueler
When they arrived at the airport, Yvonne was still holding hands with Stephen. They held hands and walked along as Julian followed behind them with their luggage.Yvonne wasn't quite used to public displays of affection. She tried to retract her hand a few times, but Stephen held it tightly, not giving her a chance to escape.Hence, she had no choice but to go along with him.Not far behind them, Calbert nudged Otto with his elbow. "Are you seeing this? Stephen is clearly asserting his dominance in front of you."Otto couldn't be bothered with Calbert. He walked ahead with his luggage.Calbert immediately chased after him. "I'm serious. If you're interested in Yvonne, be more proactive. If you're not interested, stay away from her, in case Stephen misunderstands.""I realize you've really been talking a lot as of late." Otto cast a side glance at Calbert. "Do you think it's interesting to repeat pointless topics?"It was rare to see an annoyed look on Otto's face. Calbert found
Chapter 1425 His Heart Ached for Yvonne
There had been many huge changes in Emerald Group, with the Principals either dead, gravely injured, or missing, leaving Yvonne as the sole Principal. Hence, the bosses of companies that had had a close working relationship with Emerald Group in the past were all present on the cruise.They wanted to use this opportunity to get to know Yvonne better and the new Emerald Group after the shuffling of powers.Meanwhile, Emerald Group's executives still remembered Yvonne's promise to divide Claude's businesses between them during the meeting. They were so eager that they boarded the cruise ship early.As a result, more people attended the cruise meeting this year compared to the past few years. Yvonne was standing by the deck, welcoming guests. Her red satin gown rippled in the wind, looking like a ball of flames.Under the sunlight, she was the most gorgeous person on deck.Otto was looking at her from afar. At that moment, he was on the third floor of the deck. Calbert stood ne
Chapter 1426 How Thoughtful of You
Yvonne had been so busy welcoming guests the entire day that her legs were numb from standing in heels.The cruise finally left the dock. Yvonne could return to her room to catch her breath.When she entered the room, she took her heels off. The moment she stepped on the floor with her bare feet, she stumbled and almost fell.Luckily, Stephen heard her and immediately appeared right next to her, holding onto her.Before Yvonne could thank him, she yelped in surprise.Stephen had picked her up, so her feet were no longer on the ground, much to her surprise. He took her to the living room and placed her on the couch. Then, he bent down.Yvonne noticed a bucket of warm water on the floor. She was a little surprised by his kind gesture. "Mr. Anderson, where did you learn this from? How thoughtful of you!"Stephen reached out and grabbed her ankles. He looked at her red, swollen ankles and furrowed his brows. "If you knew you were going to stand for a long time, why didn't you change
