Rage washed over Katie at that moment. She tried to lunge at Yvonne, completely ignoring the fact that she had an IV drip hooked to the back of her hand.Yvonne rose to her feet, nimbly avoiding Katie's attack. She watched as Katie collapsed to the floor heavily.Katie was unable to get up due to the intense pain flaring from her side. She could only glare up at Yvonne angrily. "Fuck you, Yvonne!"Yvonne just chortled in amusement. "It seems that you will never recognize your own faults in this lifetime."Katie slumped on the floor as though she were a lowly, filthy maggot. Yvonne could have easily inflicted more damage on her if she wanted to, but she wasn't interested in bullying the weak.She looked down at Katie, who was squirming on the floor. "You used to refer to me as your little sister. Back then, I refused to acknowledge this identity."Never would I have thought that I would voluntarily admit to being your sister just so I could sign the surgical consent form for you

Yvonne's lips curled into a smirk when she picked up on Chuck's silence. "It appears that you're still keeping in contact with Mark, Mr. Jensen. You two are definitely affiliated with each other in more ways than one."Chuck replied lightly, "Mark and I are merely business partners. Don't overthink it, Ms. Miller.""Really, now? You're already asking for medicine on his behalf. This shows how much you truly care about him. Do you really expect me to believe that you two are just 'business partners'?"Yvonne put down her teacup before leaning leisurely against the back of her chair. "I specifically crafted the drowsy incense for Mark in the past. Now that I think about it, it's been a year since I last gave him some incense. He must have run out by now."She clicked her tongue softly. "It seems that he doesn't want to make the request in person because he's worried that I might threaten him with the supply. That's why he had you do it in his stead, right?"Or perhaps … he has f

Chuck smiled at Yvonne as he walked into the office. "Hello, Ms. Miller," he said in greeting.Yvonne leaned against her desk, a piece of paper trapped between her fingers. "This is the formula of the drowsy incense that you want, Mr. Jensen."Pleased, Chuck reached out to grab the formula.Unexpectedly, Yvonne curled her fingers instantly, thus balling up the paper in her palm. Naturally, Chuck failed to grab the formula.A glint of anger appeared in his eyes. "What are you doing, Ms. Miller?""I suddenly remembered something," Yvonne stated while pretending to look curiously. "I heard that Mark came to Northerna City. Did he personally come here just to visit you? Did he ask you any questions related to Gwen?""He visited you as well?" Chuck asked instinctively.Yvonne just smiled. "It seems that Mark did ask you about Gwen."Since Mark was a Principal, he kept himself updated with the allocation of human resources within Emerald Group.During this period, Yvonne had arran

Yvonne grabbed the documents from Rachel's hands. A similar look of astonishment took over her features the moment she laid her eyes on the contents."You're giving me 50% of Anderson Group's shares?"Those shares were worth hundreds of billions of dollars!It was no wonder Rachel suddenly looked so shocked. Yvonne had literally received a treasure trove, after all.Stephen's calm expression was in stark contrast to the women's shock. "You deserve the reward. Grandpa said you're the one who saved his life. Isn't his life as valuable as the shares?"Besides, Grandpa confiscated these shares from Noah. You helped us out big time, so you should accept the gift no matter what.""Well …" Yvonne frowned in response. "That's not it. You can't give me something this valuable."Stephen replied coolly, "I won't accept things that I've given away. The decision is final.""He's right!" Rachel thrust the empty folder into Yvonne's hands. "Stephen came all the way here just to give you

Three days later, Yvonne and Nicole headed toward Euphoria Smith as per the instructions on Noah's invitation.They took the elevator to the fifth floor. When the elevator doors slowly slid open, the first thing the women saw was a large billiard hall. A group of scions were having fun around one of the billiard tables.Of course, Yvonne was quick to spot Finlay, who was tied in front of a billiard table. She couldn't help but frown at the sight.Nicole noticed the man as well. The scene terrified her to the point that she dove behind Yvonne immediately.Finlay looked extremely bruised and battered at that point. His face was swollen, with splotches of black and blue dotting across his skin. Not only that, but he was also covered in his own blood.To make things worse, his jaws were forcibly pried open by two sticks. Drool mixed with blood kept trickling out of his mouth the whole time.At that moment, a billiard was launched in Finlay's direction.Nicole screwed her eyes shut o
