Chapter 1191 I’m Not Afraid of You

The next morning, Yvonne had breakfast in the dining room. When Stephen joined her at the table, she turned her phone on and slid it toward him. "I talked to Leonard over a call last night. He sent me this forensic report and advised me to stop looking into the incident." Stephen scanned the forensic report displayed on the phone screen. Then, he asked, "What are your thoughts about this?" "Leonard and Claude don't want to upset Mark. The best way to do that is to push all the blame on Howard, and that's precisely what Mark wants as well." Yvonne cupped her chin and added, "I've looked at the forensic report carefully and confirmed its authenticity. "In my opinion, Mark must have set Howard up since he knew how much Howard resented Jane. He had intentionally created the situation for Howard to attack Jane." Howard had a very strong motive for wanting Jane dead. Claude and Leonard would surely bring it up during the investigation, and Yvonne wouldn't be able to deny it. Yv

Chapter 1192 Stop Getting Into Trouble

Mark left the ward soon after that. While he was waiting for the elevator, he ran into Leonard, who had just arrived on that floor. He greeted Leonard and said, "I dropped by to visit Ms. Ford." Leonard was skeptical but still smiled amiably. "That's very kind of you." "I feel somehow responsible for Ms. Ford's current condition since I was the first to discover her location. If I had gotten to her aid sooner, she probably wouldn't have had to suffer such severe injuries." After a brief pause, Mark asked, "By the way, how are your investigations going, Leonard? I can't keep waiting around for you to give me news." "I've received the forensics report on the knife, and the evidence points to Howard as Jane's attacker. I've informed Yvonne about this as well." As he recalled his call with her last night, Leonard gave a weary sigh. "It's a shame Yvonne won't listen to me. I think it's a little too difficult for her to come to terms with the truth when she's just lost one of h

Chapter 1193 I've Made up My Mind

Leonard's expression visibly darkened as he listened to Jane's words. "I'm already looking into the incident, Jane. You should focus on resting and getting better soon. Don't—" "Why are you getting mad at her, Leonard?" Claude gave Leonard a nudge on the shoulder. "Jane's words made complete sense. Yvonne must somehow be involved in the incident." He continued, "You keep telling us the same thing day after day. Tell us, then! When will we receive the results of the investigation?" "I'm doing everything I can to—" "Stop lying! It's so obvious that you don't want to get on Yvonne's wrong side!" "Why you …" Leonard was so infuriated by Claude's words that he went ahead and admitted, "That's right! I don't want to get on Yvonne's wrong side, nor do I want to upset Mark! Is there a problem with that?"Howard, the man who attacked Jane, is dead. What more can you do under these circumstances? "Be my guest if you insist on getting everyone involved in the incident to take the

Chapter 1194 Her Business Is My Business

Leonard and Claude arrived at the private room right on time, as per Kendrick's message. Seeing the empty room, Claude was infuriated. "Kendrick sure is cocky! He was the one who set the time, yet he isn't punctual! He's even making us wait for him!""Enough." Leonard pulled up a chair and took a seat. "It's good enough that he's willing to meet us. There's nothing wrong with waiting a little.""You …" Claude rolled his eyes at Leonard and grumbled softly, "I never noticed that you were such a people-pleaser."Leonard pretended not to hear him. He picked up the teapot, poured two cups of tea, and passed one to Claude.Half an hour later, Kendrick arrived. He still had his sunglasses on. He said nonchalantly, "I'm sorry to keep you two waiting.""No, no. It's fine." Leonard immediately got up to welcome him. "We've just been sitting for a while. You're on time."Kendrick sat down and took off his sunglasses. He placed them on the table. "I had ordered some food beforehan

Chapter 1195 That Should Be Kendrick

Kendrick wasn't planning to hide it at all. He replied, "Yvonne saved my life."Leonard was stunned. He couldn't believe his ears.Since Yvonne had saved Kendrick's life, it made sense for him to protect her like that. Kendrick would also follow through with his words.This meant that Yvonne was untouchable. Now Leonard even had to think of ways to get back into her good books once more.The more he thought about it, the more depressed he was. If he had known about this, he wouldn't have listened to Mark and cut off ties with Yvonne! "Do you still have any other questions?" Kendrick's voice pulled Leonard back to reality.Leonard smiled and said, "No. I was just surprised. I have never heard Yvonne mention that she once saved your life.""She still doesn't know my identity. To her, I'm just a normal patient." At that, Kendrick added, "I don't want her to know that I'm helping her behind her back."Leonard nodded understandingly. "Don't worry. Without your permission, I won't

Chapter 1196 Why Was It Him Again

Gwen turned her phone off immediately after sending the messages, just as she had done last time.Since Yvonne knew Gwen well, she no longer felt disheartened by that. Her thoughts were now focused on Kendrick's meeting with Leonard and Claude.The next day, Yvonne's inattentive demeanor caught Stephen's attention."Something on your mind?" he asked."Gwen texted me again last night."Yvonne searched for the picture on her phone. She showed Stephen an enlarged headshot of a man. "See, doesn't he look like Kendrick?"Stephen's brows furrowed. Why was it this dude again? "It doesn't.""No?" Yvonne took another glance at the picture. "I remember his physique though, and he gives off a stylish vibe …"Wearing sunglasses in the middle of the night did seem like something Kendrick would do to show off."And you remember his physique that vividly?" There was a hint of annoyance in Stephen's tone."It's not like it's something hard to remember." A sudden realization dawned upon

Chapter 1197 Is This What You Wish For

"Of course not." Yvonne smiled. "Look back at everything I've gone through. I won't trust anyone blindly now. That's why I plan to get to know Kendrick better before making any decisions."Stephen went quiet. Something didn't feel quite right about this conversation. "That's not what I mean.""I know what you meant," Yvonne interrupted him while looking straight into his eyes. "You don't like Kendrick. That's why you're against us working together. You want me to stay away from him. Unfortunately, I need more power."After Howard's death, she had realized there was no time to lose. Mark wouldn't wait. The moment she dawdled, unknown sacrifices would await her.Therefore, she couldn't afford to miss any opportunity."I'm calling this number." Her fingers closed around the business card. "At least I'm being honest with you.""Then, there's no stopping you." Stephen eyed her hand and sighed. "Since you're adamant about believing him, so be it. At least you'll know what's goi

Chapter 1198 You Made the Rules

Kendrick's eyebrows furrowed when he saw the messages. "What a waste," he responded coldly.The reply was quick. "You didn't make yourself clear, so you can't blame her.""This doesn't count," Kendrick retorted."Well, you made the rules."Kendrick could almost picture the gloating grin on the man's face. He was starting to get more annoyed."I'll see her once I finish with the work on hand."After he was done replying, Kendrick tossed his phone aside and sank into the couch. His gaze was fixed on the ceiling.Since Yvonne had made the call, she must be determined to get help to deal with Mark, Leonard, and Claude.It was a clear indication that the death of one of her men had hit her hard. Or else, it wouldn't have prompted her to make such a crucial decision in such a short time.Kendrick couldn't help but recall the last time he had met Yvonne. He remembered the way she had spoken about her subordinate and said she didn't discriminate between lives at Hope. It seemed like

Chapter 1199 Your Memories Are Back

After leaving the ward, Jim impatiently said, "Chuck has returned to Well Spring Pharma. He made a public announcement that he will hold a press conference next week. "By then, he plans to launch a brand new international medical platform."Jim continued. "I just talked to Conan on the phone. He was still at an emergency meeting. He said that half of Hopeful Faith's core team members have left. They most likely jumped ship and went to Well Spring Pharma."Jim furrowed his brows. "Conan suspects that Well Spring Pharma's new platform was built based on Hopeful Faith and is an improved version of it. "They are launching the platform abroad, so it would be hard for us to hold Well Spring Pharma accountable."Yvonne's heart sank. "How could Conan be so careless? I already told him over and over again that he had to be careful of Chuck. He …"At that point in time, it was pointless to blame Conan.Yvonne didn't finish her sentence. "Forget about it. I'll find a way to deal with thi

Chapter 1200 Ungrateful Bastard

"Yes!" Jade said without missing a beat. She looked at the photo with widened eyes. "Yvonne, how did you know it was her?""I guessed." Yvonne could feel Jade's hand trembling. She immediately put her phone away. "Jade, you've done me a huge favor."Jade was surprised. "Really?"Yvonne smiled and hummed in response. "Thank you for remembering this."Jade was delighted, and her fear immediately vanished. "That's great!"Yvonne wasn't planning to explain more to Jade. She merely clenched her phone tightly.So Chuck had been planning this when he stayed back at Hope. He had planned to agitate Jade, and he had used that to get Howard to ask him about the truth.That meant that, from the beginning, he had known that Jane had kidnapped Jade. Yet he had kept playing dumb.He was the one who had secretly stirred up trouble! He had used Howard to exact revenge on Leonard and Claude, and then used that to gain Mark's trust. Even if Leonard and Claude found out that he was behind th
