Meanwhile, Yvonne and the rest drove back to Hope Health Services.At the entrance, Otto walked over to them. "How's the situation?"Yvonne shook her head.Otto understood what she meant. Mark was such a cautious person; he wouldn't let his tracks be uncovered."Don't worry too much. At least now you're sure he's in the industrial area."Yvonne nodded. She seemed a little tired. She said nothing more and walked past Otto.Stephen followed behind her. When he passed Otto, he paused for a while and looked at the latter.Otto nodded a little but avoided Stephen's gaze. Once the two left, Otto turned to look at them with a conflicted look in his eyes.…That night, Yvonne was in the living room playing house with Britney. Although she was smiling, one could still see how exhausted she was.Elvin seemed to have noticed it. He placed his book down and walked over to Britney. "I'll play with you."Britney was surprised. She looked at Elvin with wide eyes. "Really?" She recalled t
The next afternoon, Yvonne received news that the man who infiltrated the oil refinery had come around.Yvonne immediately put her work aside and headed to his ward.In the ward, the doctor had just finished doing a series of checkups on the man. The doctor turned around, only to see Yvonne rushing inside. He nodded and greeted her before leaving.The man in bed heard voices and opened his eyes with difficulty. "M-Ms. Y."The man's eyes were so swollen that he only managed to open them a little, but Yvonne could still see how apologetic he looked."I'm sorry I returned in such a state. I've embarrassed you.""Don't say that." Yvonne walked closer to the bed. "You've done well. I'll take over from here. All you need to do is get better."She pulled over a chair and gently asked, "How do you feel right now?""I'm good." Although the man looked like he was seriously injured, his vital parts weren't hurt. He was in a good mood. At least, his mind was clear."If you have any questi
Late at night, the lights in the rooms were still brightly lit. The sounds of taps on the keyboards and clicks on the mouse didn't stop.In order to find out where the truck was quickly, Otto personally supervised his staff. He held a cup of coffee and paced around, looking at the screens of the computer one after the other. Without realizing it, he had finished his cup of coffee.Suddenly, his phone rang.He took his phone out to have a look. He headed out of the control room, threw the empty cup in the bin, and picked up the call.Calbert said, "I heard one of Yvonne's men had been badly beaten up.""Hmm." Otto was by the windows in the corridor. He looked out at the night view. "Aren't you busy dealing with Sloan? Why do you still have the time to worry about Hope?""I'm not that busy. I still have time to think about you guys."Calbert was at a departure terminal in the airport. He looked at Ashley's parents and sighed. "The Webbs really like to travel. They don't feel tir
"Pass me the map." Upon hearing the order, Benji immediately handed the map to Cory. He circled Hope Health Services on the map with a red marker.At that moment, they realized that, in just a short week, they had gone further and further away from Hope. If they wanted to go back there, they would need to take a flight for at least a day and a night.Benji hesitantly expressed his concerns. "Cory, do you think that something has happened over where Mark is?"Cory said nothing. He looked at the map for a while. At that point, even if something were to happen to Mark, he wouldn't be back in time.Besides, Ashley's parents were much more important than Mark. Cory couldn't just turn away right now.After giving it some thought, his gaze became sharp. Since he was already there, the only thing he could do was capture Calbert himself and use that to explain things to Mark."We'll press on and go after them." Cory scrunched the map up tightly. His gaze gleamed fiercely. "We can't le
When the plane landed, Cory received a photo from an unknown number. This time, he had anticipated the photo.Cory didn't think much about it. After finding out the location of the photo, he rushed over there with his men.He was anxious. When he saw Ashley's parents posing for the camera by the side of the road, he was finally relieved.He got out of the car and quickly walked over to Ashley's parents. He called out to them, "Dad, Mom."When they heard his voice, they turned around to see Cory and his group of men. They looked alarmed.Ashley's father, Nolan Webb, took one step forward, protecting his wife, Nina, behind him. He looked at Cory sternly. "What are you trying to do? Is it not enough that you killed our daughter? Are you trying to kill us too?"Cory stopped in his tracks. He looked awkward. "N-No. I-I'm just …"Halfway through, he hesitated. He couldn't let them know that his sworn rival was messing with him. That would just mean he had caused trouble for them.He
"I'm sorry," Cory apologized sincerely before pulling Jane away and leaving.Although others might not be able to see it, Jane could clearly sense that Cory was trying hard to keep his emotions at bay. His grip on her was so tight that her bones felt like they were about to be crushed.Jane was in so much pain that she furrowed her brows. She almost tripped a few times. Cory threw her in the car. He didn't even look at her as he turned around and left.Jane was infuriated. She yelled, "Cory Sloan, if you're so great, go and talk to them! What's the point of bullying me? I was the one standing up for you—"Benji frantically went over and covered her mouth. "Fuck! Stop talking! Are you trying to get me killed too? "Those people are Ashley's parents. Cory never speaks to them rudely. How dare you try to reason with them? They even misunderstood who you are."Benji was almost in tears. He utterly regretted bringing Jane there. "If I had known that this would happen, I wouldn't hav
"I'll have to hang up." Otto hung up and quickly headed over to his subordinate. "What's going on?"The subordinate pointed at the truck on the computer screen. "This is the truck. It headed north after coming out of the oil refinery. Then, it made rounds around the industrial area. In the end, it entered this abandoned factory."The industrial area had complex roads, not to mention the constant trucks going in and out. The trucks all looked the same too.It was really challenging to locate one specific truck and trace its movement. That was why they had worked through the entire night before they finally managed to locate their target.Otto patted the subordinate on the shoulder. "Great! You've done well. I'll make sure to reward you for this.""Thank you, Mr. Carrington!"Then, the subordinate cropped the clips and pieced them together to form a complete route for Otto. Once he got in the thumb drive, Otto immediately headed out to look for Yvonne. He had just opened the door
After Stephen left, Otto looked out of the window in thought for a long time. In the end, he still sent a message to Yvonne."We've found out where the oil is being transported to, but Mr. Anderson took the thumb drive away."After sending the message, he held his phone and sighed. He didn't know if what he had done was right or wrong.…Yvonne was sleeping lightly. When her phone vibrated, she woke up right away. She reached for her phone. She squinted her eyes, finding it hard to adjust to the sudden brightness.When she saw the message, she immediately sat up. She replied, "Stephen found out all about it?""Hmm. He even said not to tell you."When she received Otto's reply, she tugged her hair in disappointment. Sure enough, nothing got past Stephen. He was also probably thinking the same thing as her. He must have planned to take the risk alone. Yvonne smiled helplessly. How could she possibly agree to it?"Give me the address."Soon, Otto sent the address to Yvonne. H
