"It's a long story." Yvonne turned around and placed her hands on the railing. She fiddled with the detonator distractedly.She'd had quite a lot to drink that night. At that moment, she felt a little hot. It was rare for her to have the urge to talk about her feelings."Mark has a grudge against the Miller family. I guess it started with my grandfather. My father married into the family and took my mother's name. So when I say grandfather, I mean my maternal one."Yvonne explained simply before chuckling self-deprecatingly. "This entire thing is quite absurd. My grandfather had an affair with a college girl. He kept the affair under wraps really well. He was a great father and a grandfather."She continued, "The college girl looked a lot like my late grandmother, but that wasn't an excuse for the affair. He had committed an unforgivable mistake."Yvonne was a little agitated.Otto felt a little sorry. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have—""It's fine." Yvonne waved her hand. "I'm ju

Chapter 1432 You Still Think You're Right

Yvonne turned to look and smiled. "You're here."Stephen walked over to her. He subtly cast Otto a cold gaze. The night breeze was chilly, but his gaze was frosty.Otto sneered inwardly. He took a step back and bade Yvonne farewell. "Thank you for telling me all of that, Ms. Miller. Now that Mr. Anderson is here, I won't be in your way.""Okay." Yvonne looked at Otto leaving. Suddenly, a hand was right in front of her eyes.Yvonne couldn't help but chuckle. She looked at Stephen. "What? Can't I even look at a man's back?""What were you two talking about?" Stephen asked coldly."Mr. Carrington was here to pass me something." Yvonne waved the detonator in her hand. "Calbert took this from one of the men. Apparently, there's still a bomb here that we haven't found yet."Stephen furrowed his brows.Yvonne leaned against the railing. "Luckily, I wasn't that arrogant to get them to set off all the detonators. If not, we would have been done for."Seeing how lightly she was taking

Chapter 1433 More Tricks up Her Sleeve

The next morning, everyone arrived at the meeting room early.After the incident the night before, they were still worried. The atmosphere in the meeting room was much heavier than usual.As they waited in silence, the door slowly opened.Yvonne entered in her high heels. She naturally took a seat at the head of the table. She said with a light smile, "You're all here early.""Ms. Y, such a dangerous thing happened last night. Everyone is still traumatized by it. I don't think any of us want to be on board much longer."A middle-aged man suggested, "I think we should finish the meeting quickly and get off this ship as soon as possible."The others chimed in, agreeing, "Yes, I think so too.""I didn't sleep well the entire night. I kept having nightmares! I don't want to stay on board this ship any longer.""Me too! Who knows what other crazy things Mark might be up to?"Yvonne raised her hand to silence the crowd. "Since everyone is worried, I won't force you to stay. We'll do

Chapter 1434 Yvonne's Territory

"Not long ago, Carrington Ventures reached out to Claude's businesses at Ms. Miller's request. Many people in charge of those companies have expressed a strong desire to collaborate."Otto cut right to the chase. "This is the contract all of them have signed. You can all have a look at it. If you have any objections, please feel free to raise them."Then, Otto gave his assistants a look.Soon, a copy of the contract was handed to each of Emerald Group's executives.The executives looked at the contract. As they read it, their expressions turned uglier.The contract clearly stated that the persons in charge would hand over the management of the companies to Yvonne. Moreover, the company's future development and capital operations would be taken over by Carrington Ventures.It was obvious that Carrington Ventures had extended an olive branch to all of them and had them side with Yvonne.Only now that everything was finalized did they realize that Yvonne had just been stalling at

Chapter 1435 Better Watch Out

According to everyone's wishes, the cruise headed back right the day after the meeting. The ship docked the next evening.At the dock, a row of police cars was already waiting. The lights on their cars lit up in the dark.Behind the police cordon, a dozen reporters had their cameras aimed at the ship. As the steps were placed by the dock, their cameras started flashing.The first to get down from the ship was a group of men with their hands tied. A long rope linked them together.When the police saw them, they immediately cuffed the men up and put them in the police cars.Then, the cruise meeting's attendees slowly descended. All of them had their bodyguards and chauffeurs there to pick them up.Throughout the entire process, the flashes of the camera didn't stop for even a second. When Yvonne showed up, all the cameras turned to her.Since the case was huge, the local police chief had personally led the team of police to show how serious they were dealing with the case.The

Chapter 1436 Be Brave for Once

At the infirmary at Hope Health Services, Gwen had finished watching the news. She turned to see Curtis pretending to be asleep. The lights on the screen of his phone sold him out.She was perplexed. She got up and walked over to the bed. "Why are you secretly looking at your phone instead of sleeping? Do you care about your health at all?"Curtis was startled. He immediately pressed his phone against his chest and looked at Gwen. "Weren't you watching the live broadcast news?""It ended a long time ago." Gwen looked at his phone suspiciously. "Are you following the news on the attack?""I-I … Of course, I'm following the news." Curtis stuttered. "I-It's just … I was engrossed in the comments, so I didn't realize you had finished watching the news.""I see." Gwen crossed her arms and looked at Curtis intently. "Tell me. What are people saying?""The comments …" Curtis scratched his head. "They all said that the attack was really terrifying …"Seeing Curtis scratch his head, Gwen

Chapter 1437 Your Life Is Mine

The next morning, Gwen received news that Yvonne was going to return to Hope Health Services the following day.She looked at Curtis, who was taking his medication. Then, she decided to head to the garden.During this time, Jim and the children had moved into Hope's headquarters for their safety. Knowing Jim, Gwen guessed that he must be in the garden with the children for his morning exercise at this hour.The weather was great that day. Many patients were out for a walk in the garden.Gwen saw Jim exercising by the lake from afar. The two children were squatting down on the grass, looking at something.Her mood turned better as she looked at the peaceful scene. She hadn't felt this way for a long time. Even her steps felt lighter.She was just about to step out when she noticed a familiar figure in the distance. Her smile on her face stiffened.He was standing on a bridge. His cap was blocking half of his face. Even so, Gwen could recognize him. He was looking at Jim and the c

Chapter 1348 Lying to Oneself

"Gwen has gotten in an accident!" Ever since Yvonne had received Jim's call, she had been in a trance. She immediately got on a plane and headed back to Hope Health Services. She moved emotionlessly and didn't say a single word throughout the entire journey.Stephen was following closely behind her. He didn't dare to take his eyes off her for a second.Calbert and Otto were following behind them. They looked equally glum.When they arrived at Hope, Yvonne saw Jim standing by the entrance, waiting for them. She quickly went forward and grabbed his arm. "Where's Gwen? Where is she?"Yvonne's throat was dry. Her voice trembled as utter fear gripped her heart.Jim looked apologetic. "She's in the mortuary.""No! That's impossible!" Yvonne lost it. "Grandpa, don't joke around with me, please! How could Gwen be in such a place? Wasn't she looking after Curtis?"Tears streamed down Yvonne's face. She had held it in for the entire journey. She had even thought that perhaps it wo

Chapter 1439 Get Away Unscathed

Yvonne locked herself in her room. She had nightmares the entire night.In her nightmares, Mark was standing right in front of her. He was shrouded in a black fog, yet it didn't hide his condescending gaze.He was mocking her for working so hard but still failing to protect the people closest to her.As the black fog dissipated, a pistol appeared in Mark's hand. Elvin and Britney were lying on the ground next to his feet.He sneered and raised his pistol, aiming at Elvin's head."No!" Yvonne woke up with a scream. She opened her eyes immediately.The room was cold, but she was sweating. Even her hair was sticking to her face. She looked at the ceiling, catching her breath. After a while, reality slowly set in.No. She had to pick herself up soon. She couldn't let Mark hurt anyone close to her again.…The sun was barely up when Stephen headed to Yvonne's room. He had just raised his hand to knock on the door when it swung open.Yvonne stood in front of him with her hair tied

Chapter 1440 I'll Capture Him Myself

Mark had deliberately looked at the camera to provoke her. He had been hinting that the game had just started.Also, Mark's target was the people close to Yvonne. He knew that this would torment her much more than it would if he were to take her down in one go.The more Yvonne thought about it, the more intense her hatred became. What followed was a fear of the unknown.She turned to look at Calbert. "I might need your help with Hope's security and also with Cory. You have to try to distract him. Don't let him help Mark again."Calbert nodded. "I was planning to do just that.""Thank you." Yvonne's gaze sharpened. "I'll arrange for Emerald Group to quickly locate Mark. He should still be in the city. This time, I'll capture him myself."Yvonne lowered her voice without realizing it. Her tone was filled with murderous intent.…After leaving the security department, Yvonne headed to the mortuary once more. Stephen was still following closely behind.As she entered the corridor,
