Chapter 1111 Use It to Your Advantage

Ever since returning from the hotel, Yvonne had been very quiet, barely talking at all. Other than going to the hospital to check up on Jade's condition each day, she would be working in the mines.During that time, Yvonne also got Curtis to look into Mark's businesses.A week later, Curtis handed her a document. "This has information on all of Mark's businesses.""Hmm, thank you," Yvonne responded without looking up. She gestured for Curtis to put the document by the side.Curtis placed the document down on the desk but didn't leave. He hesitated for a while before saying, "Yvonne, you can't blame yourself for Jade's incident. You've already done very well—""Curtis," Yvonne interrupted him. Her tone was emotionless. "You don't have to persuade me. I know what I should do.""But …"Curtis furrowed his brows. He heard footsteps from behind him, so he turned around to look.Seeing Stephen approaching them, Curtis nodded at him a little before leaving the study to give them some

Chapter 1112 Understood Immediately

"Take a guess. Do you think Claude and Leonard know about Jade's incident?" Stephen asked casually."I guess so, after all …" Yvonne suddenly came to a realization. "You want me to use this opportunity to tell Claude and Leonard about my hatred for Mark so that they will trust me more and perhaps even help me out?"Stephen smiled in response. As expected, Yvonne had understood it immediately.Right at this moment, her phone vibrated on the desk. Yvonne switched modes on her phone and saw that it was a call from Leonard. Her eyes glimmered slyly. "Speak of the devil."Stephen watched on as Yvonne answered the call. She had been smiling a moment ago, yet the moment she picked up the call, her expression darkened. He was shocked at how quickly her expression had changed."Can I help you, Leonard?" Yvonne asked coldly."Uh …" Leonard asked tentatively, "I've heard about what happened to Howard Hough. I never thought that Mark would be so unethical. I'll talk to him.""No need."

Chapter 1113 Jade Must Die

"No." Leonard said icily, "She must still be angry. She isn't really too willing to talk to me about working together. I was too impatient."Leonard convinced himself not to get too worked up."Knowing Mark, he would never explain to Yvonne. After all, it wouldn't matter at all. They hate each other no matter what. From Yvonne's tone, I'm sure she thinks that Mark was behind this."Leonard looked at Claude and said curtly, "Don't worry. She won't suspect your precious granddaughter."Claude smiled sheepishly. "Jane is indeed at fault on this matter. I am as well. I should have asked for more details before arranging a team of men for her."He poured Leonard a cup of hot tea. "Luckily, you reacted quickly and settled this matter in time. If not, we would have been in trouble.""Yes." Leonard glared at Claude. "If Yvonne ever finds out that Jane was behind this, she'll come at us instead."Claude nodded fervently. "There is also another thing. Jade has seen Jane before. She …""W

Chapter 1114 The Most Painful Way

When the plane landed, Jade was soon handed over to the medical staff, who had been waiting for them for a long time.Jim knew that Yvonne must be exhausted from this trip, so he forbade her to come along with him. Instead, he got Stephen to take her home to rest.Yvonne couldn't argue with Jim, so she obeyed.Returning to the mansion, Yvonne took a shower. When she came out of the bathroom, drying her hair with a towel, she heard a knock on the door.She opened the door to see Stephen with a bottle of red wine and two glasses in his hands. She smiled. "How did you know I wanted a drink tonight?""You've just returned to headquarters. Your mind won't rest easily." Stephen entered her room. "You're no robot. You can't switch off whenever you want. If you really went to bed like this, you would be up all night."Yvonne chuckled gently and closed the door. Then, she headed over to Stephen by the floor-to-ceiling window. They sat on the floor with a glass of red wine each.Her hai

Chapter 1115 Betrayal

When Yvonne woke up the next day, she found herself alone in her room. If it hadn't been for her throbbing headache from the hangover, she would have thought that the night before had been a dream.Thanks to the bottle of red wine, she'd had a great night's sleep too. In fact, it was the best sleep she'd had during this time.She washed up and headed downstairs, greeting everyone with a smile in the dining hall.Noticing that Yvonne was in a good mood, Jim looked at Stephen meaningfully. "It looks like you took good care of her last night.""Hmm." Stephen nodded honestly.Yvonne blushed. She wanted to say something when Stephen added, "She had a bottle of 80-thousand-dollar wine. She should feel better."Yvonne was speechless. She glared at Stephen. How childish! He was deliberately misleading people!Jim looked at them both. He found them amusing. He said with a smile, "Alright, come and have breakfast. You'll be meeting a few doctors later."He continued. "I had a look at Jad

Chapter 1116 Why Won’t You Leave Me Alone

"Who would have thought that you would get to see your number one fan so quickly?" Yvonne pointed at the document. "Jane Ford is Neil Foster's goddaughter. What a coincidence, right?"Stephen was a little stunned. "Is that so?""It's only normal." Yvonne shrugged. "As they say, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. If Mark and Neil were competitors, Leonard and Claude would never give up the chance to be friends with Neil. "I wasn't familiar with their twisted relationships in the past because I never asked about their businesses before."Yvonne got engrossed in the documents once more before saying pensively, "Perhaps Claude and Leonard played a hand in stopping Mark and Neil from tearing at each other's throats.""It's possible," Stephen said calmly."It's just nice." Yvonne smiled. "If I approach Neil, Claude and Leonard will know that I really want to go up against Mark. They would naturally trust me more."The more she got to understand Mark, Claude, and Leonard better,

Chapter 1117 We’ve Frightened the Sly, Old Fox

"Hello, you are …"Neil looked at Stephen and smiled. "You must be Mr. Anderson of Anderson Group, right? I've heard a lot about you for quite some time. I'm only just realizing how young and capable you are!""Thank you, Mr. Foster."Stephen had been keeping a low profile. But since he was sitting next to Yvonne, no one could ignore his presence.Neil sized Stephen and Yvonne up for a while before saying with a smile, "It looks like the rumors are true. You two look like a good match. If you two join forces, the world will be at your feet."Jane instantly became unhappy when she heard Neil. She tugged at his arm. "Uncle Neil, since when did you become so gossipy?""When you're old, you like to listen to young people's stories." Neil smiled. "Especially about people like Mr. Anderson and Ms. Miller."Jane furrowed her brows. She said nothing, but her expression was clear.Neil didn't know what she was thinking, so he found it odd. "Did I say something wrong?""No, no," Claude

Chapter 1118 You Might Not Get What You Want

Claude noticed that Leonard was a little distracted. He asked curiously, "What happened? What were you and Yvonne talking about?""She …" Leonard glanced at Neil in the distance before leaning in closer to Claude and whispering in his ear, "Yvonne is interested in Mark's metal business.""What!" Claude's eyes widened as he looked at Leonard. "Has Yvonne gone mad? If Mark finds out, he will skin her alive.""I always knew that she was ambitious, but I never expected …" Halfway through his sentence, Leonard noticed Yvonne and Stephen coming over. So he stopped talking and hinted at Claude that they would continue the conversation later.Everyone raised their glasses to Neil, and the party officially began.After a few rounds, Neil realized that Yvonne's alcohol tolerance was quite great. It made him like her even more. He pulled her over and drank a few more rounds with her.In between, Stephen had helped her with two glasses. However, Neil was exhilarated from drinking. He didn'

Chapter 1119 No Match for You

"You …" Jane was furious, but Yvonne had the upper hand. She gritted her teeth. In the end, all she could say was, "Shameless woman!"Yvonne looked a little disappointed. "Is that all you got?" Jane's reaction made Yvonne lose all interest in her. Thus, she retracted her hand, walked past Jane, and left.Yvonne had just exited the corridors when a hand suddenly grabbed her by the arm. She spun around and fell into someone's arm against his firm pecs. The familiar woody scent enveloped her.She looked up and smiled at Stephen. "Why are you here?""If I hadn't come, I wouldn't know that I was just one of your options."Yvonne stared at Stephen. "I said it on purpose to mess with Jane. Did you really believe it?""After all, you are beautiful and capable, Ms. Miller. Having more than one option is just normal." Stephen smiled. Yvonne tugged on his tie and raised her chin. "Stephen, you've gotten bold. How dare you tease me?""I would never dare." Stephen smiled wider. He wrap

Chapter 1120 He Wouldn’t Dare to Threaten Her

The party was still going on. Claude hadn't seen Jane for almost 20 minutes. He was just about to get up to look for her when he saw her wade through the crowd and walk toward him."Why were you gone for so long?"Jane looked at Claude distractedly. She hesitated before responding, "I-I bumped into Yvonne in the ladies' room. Then, I took a call.""You talked to Yvonne?""Yes." Jane scanned around. "Where are they?""They went upstairs. Yvonne got drunk, so she's staying the night." Claude pulled Jane alone back to their seats. He quietly reminded her, "We're here to celebrate Neil's birthday. We're not in our own house. "You have to mind your manners. Do you hear me? If you continue behaving the way you did tonight, I won't be able to help you.""Okay," Jane responded, feeling annoyed. She took a sip of her drink and hesitated for a while before asking, "Grandpa, did you get Chuck to deal with Jade?"Claude was surprised. "How did you know?""Chuck called me just now. He s
