Kendrick smiled ambiguously. "Leonard, you've been so sincere. How could I let you down?"Leonard smiled in response, but he secretly grumbled to himself. Kendrick was one tough person to please. First, Kendrick had him get rid of Chuck. Now, he had to give Well Spring Pharma to Yvonne.He suddenly had a thought. He looked at Kendrick with more intent. Had Well Spring Pharma been Kendrick's target right from the beginning?Looking at where things stood at that moment, Yvonne had come out as the winner without any effort!Kendrick seemed to have noticed. He asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?""N-Nothing …" Leonard hesitated. "I was just thinking about how well you're treating Yvonne. She has gotten lucky by saving you."Kendrick cleared his throat. "You're wrong. I was the lucky one to have met her. If not, I wouldn't be sitting right here right now and talking to you."Then, Kendrick raised his glass. "Let's stop talking about her. Let's get back to our business."

Chapter 1222 A Great Move

Stephen gently chuckled. He could more or less guess what devious thoughts were running around Yvonne's mind.Leonard and Claude had both invested in Well Spring Pharma. If it ended up in Yvonne's hand, it would be strange if Claude didn't jump at that thought and cut ties with Leonard.Acquiring Well Spring Pharma was equivalent to driving a wedge between Claude and Leonard.Stephen thought about the things that happened recently. He suddenly realized that everything had happened too easily. It was as if someone was behind this, making it all happen. Before he could think more about it, Yvonne's voice pulled him back to reality. "I'm sure you've seen the news recently, right?"Yvonne furrowed her brows and grumbled a little, "Why didn't you check in on me? Were you really that busy?""Hmm. I was busy dealing with Mark."Yvonne was a little stunned. "Did Mark really look for you? Did he cause you any trouble?"Stephen shook his head and smiled. "If he had really done something

Chapter 1223 You're the Genie

On Saturday evening, Yvonne made her way to the restaurant using the GPS. She drove past the bustling city and into a quiet alley.She made sure three times that she wasn't in the wrong place before driving forward once more until she saw the restaurant's lit-up sign. She mused to herself, wondering if the restaurant had any business given its location.As she turned into the restaurant, she saw the spacious courtyard for cars to park in. The restaurant was brightly lit.She got out of the car and handed her keys to the valet before walking into the restaurant in her high heels.At that moment, she realized that, other than the staff, there wasn't a single customer.The only person who caught her attention was the man making drinks by the bar. He was in a silk shirt with his sleeves rolled up. He looked extremely skilled at making cocktails.He seemed to have noticed Yvonne's gaze. While catching the shaker in mid-air, he looked at her. "Are you Ms. Miller?"Yvonne came to her

Chapter 1224 What's the Harm in Trusting Him

"If you had said it during the call, I would have helped you," Otto chimed in. He looked at Yvonne with a smile. "That's my promise to Kendrick. If anyone receives his black card and makes the call, I grant them a wish."Yvonne was astonished. So he really was a genie!Otto seemed to have read her mind. He smiled even wider. "Yes, you can call me a genie.""Otto's ancestors were aristocrats and generations of businessmen. After the war in their country, they relocated abroad and lived a life of seclusion. He no longer holds any title in his country."Kendrick continued, "But he has wealth most countries would be jealous of. He also has contacts all over the world. That's why there is basically no problem with him doing something that's legal."Yvonne regretted it. "Why didn't you tell me about such a good offer earlier?""I had already told you how to use the card. You're the one who wasted a chance. Why are you blaming me?"Kendrick gave Otto a glance. "He's not very generous

Chapter 1225 She's Really Something

After Yvonne left, Otto finally came out of a dark corner."Ms. Miller doesn't seem like a person who is easy to fool. She won't trust you so easily."Otto continued, "Why didn't you tell her that you had helped her with Well Spring Pharma? Perhaps it would have helped her trust you more.""I'm just doing what I should do. I'm not asking for any credit. Besides, I don't need trust. I just want to do what I want to do with a clear conscience."Otto smiled. "You haven't changed one bit."Kendrick looked at him. "You neither. You're still annoying."Otto smiled but said nothing.Kendrick suddenly asked, "Judging by the way you treat her, it seems like you have a good impression of her, don't you?""Hmm. She's a smart and courageous woman. It's rare to see someone like her." Otto looked at the door. "I'm a little persuaded.""Only just a little?" Kendrick said more seriously, "I'm telling you, Yvonne can definitely become the only Principal of Emerald Group with my help. If yo

Chapter 1226 Good Timing

The day before she left, Yvonne deliberately made some time to visit Jade.When she arrived at the garden, she saw Jade sitting under a tree in the distance, reading stories to children. It was a lovely scene to behold.After Howard's funeral, Jade had cried for an entire night. The following day, she had resumed as if nothing had happened. Not only was she properly getting her treatment, but she also helped the nurses out from time to time.It seemed as if Jade had woven a tough cocoon around herself in one night, hiding all her fragility and grief inside."Aren't you going to go there?" Stephen asked.Yvonne came to her senses. She shook her head. "It's fine just like this.""Are you afraid that you would remind her of Howard?" Stephen looked at Yvonne. "You shouldn't blame yourself for Howard's death—"Yvonne snickered bitterly, interrupting Stephen's words."Jade is still young. She shouldn't grow up with hatred and grudges on her shoulders. I'll help her deal with all

Chapter 1227 How Arrogant

That afternoon, the new boss held an executive meeting.Before it was time for the meeting, the meeting room was already filled with a crowd. Everyone was discussing amongst themselves.Ten minutes later, when the meeting doors opened, the room fell into pin-drop silence.Dressed in a business suit, Yvonne walked directly over to the head of the table. She said with a smile, "Hello, everyone. I'm Yvonne Miller, your new boss."The meeting room broke out in an uproar. Everyone was bewildered. "A-Are you joking?""Am I dreaming? Our rival has become our boss? How absurd is this?"Hearing their comments, Yvonne smiled. "It is indeed quite absurd, but it's the truth."Then, she announced, "Now that Well Spring Pharma is in my hands, I will merge it with Hope Health Services in the future. If any of you have any objections to this plan, you may leave right away."Upon hearing that, everyone looked at each other. They had always known that with each new boss came a new way of worki

Chapter 1228 Don't Think About Doing This Job

Edward's subordinate was stunned too. "How could it be Ms. Miller? Isn't she the boss of Hope Health Services?"They had jumped ship from Hopeful Faith, yet it turned out that Well Spring Pharma had been acquired by Hope Health Services.Was the universe playing a prank on them?"If it's really Ms. Miller …" Edward's subordinate gradually paled. "She will never forgive us. Mr. Kirby, are we done for?"Edward's mind blanked. He was at a loss for words. For the next hour, he sat in his seat in a daze, completely distracted.When he heard a commotion, he slowly came to his senses. He turned to look, only to see Yvonne and Stephen entering the door with a few other executives around them.It really was Yvonne!Edward's mind buzzed. He was finished.Yvonne turned to ask one of the executives. "Are the people who jumped ship from Hopeful Faith all here?""Yes," the executive replied awkwardly. "Are you going to reprimand them?""I just want to meet them."The executive immedia

Chapter 1229 Did Yvonne Make You Do It

Yvonne spent the entire afternoon roughly getting to know Well Spring Pharma's current operations with the help of the executives.At the end of the day, Yvonne got in the car and finally shed her new boss persona. She rubbed her ankles, gritting her teeth in pain."I'm really sacrificing too much just to show power. I've been walking around in heels for hours. This is torture!""Do you need a massage?" Stephen asked thoughtfully.Yvonne happily accepted it. She kicked off her heels and put her feet on Stephen's lap before leaning back.Stephen's warm palms rubbed against her calve. Every squeeze he made was just right.Yvonne's heart only beat faster for a while before she was completely immersed in his pleasurable massage.She squinted her eyes a little. "Luckily, you were there today. If not, everyone in the meeting room would have run off."At first, Stephen had been sitting outside the meeting room. When he had seen people coming out, he had gotten up and entered.When th

Chapter 1230 Why Didn't You Tell Me Earlier

Leonard's heart sank, yet he pretended to feign ignorance. "What are you talking about? Wasn't Chuck's death an accident?""If it hadn't been for your men chasing after him, how would he have gotten himself in an accident?"Claude was so furious that he snorted. "Leonard, I'm here confronting you about it, so surely I've looked into it. You can drop the act. We've been friends for so many years. Can't I just get an honest answer from you?"Claude went in closer and looked Leonard in the eyes intently. "Tell me. Are you really working with Yvonne?"Leonard was silent for a while. He said slowly, "I'll explain Chuck's incident to you. You have the right to know.""I just want to know right now whether you—""Chuck set Jane up."That shut Claude's mouth up immediately. His eyes widened. "What do you mean?""Yvonne sent me an email before, exposing Chuck's true colors. He had been stirring the pot, inciting Howard to seek revenge on Jane. He was also the one who told Mark about h
