In the end, with Yvonne watching their interaction, Curtis managed to invite Gwen out to dinner. They decided to set a time once he was discharged.Seeing Curtis smiling widely, Yvonne slowly suppressed the urge to teach him how to pursue the woman of his dreams.Perhaps his awkward way was what Gwen liked. After all, they both had a clean slate when it came to relationships. If Curtis were to use any tactics, it would seem insincere.Yvonne looked at them and smiled. She wanted to create more time for them to spend together. After staying in Curtis' ward for a while, she found an excuse to leave.Gwen followed her out of the door and said, "I heard that Emerald Group's cruise meeting is next week."Yvonne stopped in her tracks. She seemed a little helpless. "Didn't I mention that all you need to do is care for Curtis? Let me handle the rest—""My wounds have almost recovered." Gwen moved her arm and said seriously, "I can protect you. Let me go with you."Yvonne glanced at Gwen

Chapter 1402 Capable but Not Enough

Kendrick suddenly applauded. "What a great analysis. You've been with Mark for such a long time. You sure are capable."He snickered and added, "But still not enough.""You …" Gwen was flustered. She was about to attack him when Yvonne stopped her.Yvonne looked at Kendrick and warned him seriously, "Don't provoke her. If you two really get into a fight, I won't help you.""Don't worry. I never fight women." Kendrick put both hands in his pocket and glanced at Gwen. "I agree with what you said, but only the first half. The second half is all based on your subjective conjecture."He added, "Of course, I'm not a saint, but I can't be bothered to explain myself to you. Whether you trust me or not has nothing to do with me. I never follow the rules anyway."He meant to say that his decision to protect Yvonne was final, regardless of whether Gwen trusted him or not.However, Yvonne's hesitation had disappointed him a little.Kendrick looked at Yvonne and thought for a moment befor

Chapter 1403 Unless Mark Is Nuts

Yvonne didn't reply to him. She merely walked away.Calbert immediately went after her and left the infirmary together.By the entrance, Yvonne stopped in her tracks. "Do you also think that Mark will be at the cruise meeting?""Hmm, knowing him, he will probably stop you from having the meeting. Also, the cruise is a confined space. It's the best time to attack."Yvonne chuckled gently as well. "Then, it's a good time for me to attack him too."Calbert furrowed his brows and looked at Yvonne. "You want to fish him out?""No." Yvonne looked up at the sky and said slowly, "Mark isn't that stupid. He knows that the cruise will be my territory, yet he would still dare to board it. Is he trying to die with me?"Yvonne's gaze darkened. She furrowed her brows. "Unless he really is nuts."Calbert was silent for a while before saying, "No matter what, I'll try my best to protect you. Beck and Call will handle the security there.""That's my plan as well." Yvonne looked at Calbert and

Chapter 1404 It's You

Late at night, music was blasting in a bar filled with neon lights.Lust was looming in the air in a VIP room. After a few rounds of drinks, the atmosphere in the room was at its peak.A man was sitting on the couch in the middle. He clearly didn't fit in with the surroundings.He had a glass of whiskey in his hands. He had only drunk half of it. He was swirling the glass, letting the ice melt.At this moment, the doors to the room opened.One of the intoxicated men was immediately unhappy. "W-Who would be so rude to intrude on Cory's gathering?"Even if the lights were dim and he couldn't see the man's face, Cory could immediately recognize Stephen's figure.He finally had a gleam in his eyes. Stephen would only be here because he had already found out about something.Cory said nothing, so the others didn't dare to move. They stood in the spot, watching as Stephen walked toward Cory. Stephen stopped right in front of the coffee table.Stephen could finally have a good look a

Chapter 1405 Understanding Between Powerful Men

Cory was a little surprised. He furrowed his brows. "Is that it?""Yes. What you want to do is your choice," Stephen said calmly."Besides, I didn't help you the other night because I wanted you to repay the favor. It was a one-time thing, and we had only just met. I'm meeting you today because I wanted to know who has been helping me."Stephen paused for a while. There was a smile in his tone. "I'm quite surprised that you were honest with me."Cory was silent. He clearly hadn't expected Stephen to respond like this. He thought Stephen would get angry or try to stop him from helping Mark. On the contrary, not only was Stephen not angry, but he was a little excited as well.Stephen wasn't like any other enemies that Cory had encountered before. Somehow, Cory got a little excited as well.He knew that this was an understanding between powerful men.He smirked, and his eyes gleamed manically. "Great. It's much more interesting to be enemies with you than to be friends.""I ho

Chapter 1406 I’ll Drag You All Along

Mark had initially wanted to question Cory about it, but the moment he saw Stephen coming out of the bar, he had his answer.Thus, Mark left without looking back. There was no need to talk to Cory anymore.On the way back, Mark was fuming. The moment he entered his place, he kicked the door.Anger was raging violently in his heart. He smashed everything around him to the floor. That was still not enough to release his anger!It turned out that Cory hadn't had a sudden change of heart that night. He had long been in cahoots with Stephen!From the beginning, Cory hadn't on his side at all!The truth that night was that everyone had joined up and treated him like a fool!Mark had been so stupid that he had trusted Cory once more! He had thought that Cory would help him get everything back!The more he thought, the more he lost it. Without realizing it, his hands were covered in blood. In the end, he punched the wall hard, leaving a fresh, bloody handprint.Mark's bloodshot eyes w

Chapter 1407 Ashley Webb's Subsitute

The moment the car stopped at the mansion and Cory got out of the car, a figure appeared out of nowhere.Out of reflex, Cory grabbed the person's wrist and pinned them to the car. His eyes gleamed murderously."It's me … Mr. Sloan." Jane looked frail. Even her tone was feeble. The pain in her wrist caused her to pale a little more.Cory furrowed his brows and asked coldly, "What do you want?""I-I've been trying to thank you in person, but Benji said you wouldn't see me."Jane furrowed her brows. She tried to turn around to look at Cory. "I heard that it's your birthday today."Under the moonlight, Jane's skin glowed like porcelain. Tears welled up in her eyes. She was gorgeous. Extremely gorgeous.Cory's gaze darkened, and he let her go. He asked in annoyance, "Where did you hear that from?"Jane clutched her wrist and turned around. She leaned against the car to support herself. "I overheard the housekeepers talking."Seeing Cory's face, Jane was a little unsure of herself.

Chapter 1408 Not an Accident

Over at Hope Health Services, Yvonne had just received Stephen's call.Stephen had filled her in on what had happened at the bar."Should I have dealt with Cory on the spot?" Stephen asked pensively.Yvonne smiled. "You were in his territory. If you had gone up against him on the spot, that would have been asking for death. But Cory is an honorable man. He even told you about his plan to help Mark."Just from that alone, Yvonne felt that if Cory wasn't her enemy, he would be a great friend.After all, not many people in his line would dare to be so open.If it had been her in Stephen's shoes that night, she would have done the same thing as him too. Yvonne sighed. "It's too bad that we can only be enemies with him. If Mark gets his help, he would be much harder to deal with."Stephen hummed and fell into thought for a while. "Cory and Kendrick are mortal enemies. And now Cory is on Mark's side. Kendrick is fully on our side too. Let him deal with Cory.""Yes." Yvonne smiled.

Chapter 1409 Coming for Me

It was still in the middle of the night when Stephen and Neil rushed over to the mines. They could see a raging fire from afar.As the car approached, the hot air washed over them.Stephen got out of the car and saw Cory standing nearby. His frosty air cut through the hot air. It was rather attention-grabbing.Stephen walked over to him. "What's the situation like?"Cory didn't look back. He was still looking at the entrance of the mine that was caught in flames.The firefighters looked like ants in comparison to the huge flame. It seemed as if they could be swallowed by the flames at any moment.Cory's gaze was darkened. When Stephen was finally next to him, he said coldly, "It smells of explosives."Stephen looked where Cory was looking. His expression turned grim too. "Are you sure it was done by someone?""Hmm. No one is more familiar with the smell of explosives than I am." Cory's gaze sharpened. "That person sure is gutsy. How dare they touch the mines I'm watching over

Chapter 1410 What Am I Going to Do Then

Cory turned around to meet Mark's gaze. Somehow, he felt provoked, and he was instantly annoyed."Why did you do it?" Cory asked icily."Have I not made myself clear enough?" Mark walked over to Cory. Although his leg was hurt, he still looked domineering.The two of them were at a standoff. The atmosphere was so tense that the others didn't dare to move or even breathe."My men told me that someone has been stealing businesses around here." Mark sneered. "If I don't teach them a lesson, how can my company continue operating? How can I give my men an explanation?"Cory's gaze darkened. "Don't beat around the bush. Tell me the truth. Do you know who it is?""What?" Mark raised an eyebrow. "Are you finally going to explain yourself?"Cory was silent. He didn't know much about the man in front of him, even though they were partners.At that moment, he realized that Mark was extremely scheming. His cruelty and maliciousness oozed from every pore of his skin. He was born with it.
