Stephen hummed in agreement.He lowered his gaze to meet Yvonne's eyes. "In addition to the body, we also have a witness and records of Noah renting a boat. "They all have matching timestamps. He won't be able to deny it once the autopsy report confirms it was murder."Yvonne felt relieved when she heard this. She smiled and said, "That's good to hear."Stephen noticed her improved mood and smiled back. "I haven't let you down."Yvonne paused momentarily. She remembered what Rachel had said about wanting to marry Stephen if Yvonne didn't want to make up with him.At that thought, she couldn't help but chuckle. This piqued Stephen's curiosity. "What's so funny?""Nothing," Yvonne replied with a suppressed smile. She turned to look at the sea, allowing the wind to tousle her loose hair. She quietly savored how wildly her heart was beating, thanks to Stephen. This feeling of excitement wasn't half bad.…That evening, the police released a report that they had recovered

As Jane had anticipated, Simone arrived at Miller Villa with a gift in hand on Saturday afternoon.Yvonne opened the door and was pleasantly surprised. "Simone, what brings you here?""I've been busy on the set for the past few months, and I finally found some free time today. I learned about El's situation and decided to drop by," Simone explained as she handed the gift to Yvonne."Rachel was supposed to come with me, but she remembered she had a prenatal checkup today. That's why I came alone."Yvonne smiled warmly. "There's no need to be polite with me. I, for one, won't be polite with you.""I prefer it that way. I can't stand all the formality," Simone replied.After changing into indoor shoes, Simone followed Yvonne inside and asked how Elvin was doing now. Yvonne shared the details with Simone and invited her to sit in the living room. After that, she went to the kitchen to prepare a cup of coffee for Simone.As Yvonne returned with the coffee, Simone hesitated before

The first court session lasted two hours.Since the case was a big one, the judge had to thoroughly go through all the evidence, so no conviction was reached during the first court session.The second court session was scheduled for the following Tuesday. This was all within the legal team's expectations. Once the court was adjourned, they consoled Yvonne while packing up. "Criminal cases are usually more troublesome. It's normal to have a few court sessions. You don't have to worry too much."Yvonne hummed in response and smiled. "Thank you."Just then, Julian approached Stephen. "Sir, there are reporters outside. They're waiting to interview you and Ms. Miller. What do you plan to do?"Julian had just taken a look outside. The reporters seemed very enthusiastic. It didn't seem like they could easily brush the reporters off.Stephen looked at Yvonne. "Do you want to meet with them?"Yvonne shook her head. "No. I'm exhausted." Moreover, Elvin was with her too.Elvin had don

Since it was an adult affair, Elvin couldn't join them. Yvonne told Lloyd to have the driver take Elvin home before she took the legal team over to the restaurant.She had booked the best private room and ordered a feast.The team of lawyers had been working hard all this time. Now they could finally relax. They weren't as uptight as they usually were. After a few rounds of drinks, they started getting chatty.Soon, the atmosphere in the room turned lively.Their enthusiasm swayed Yvonne and improved her mood. She had already had two glasses of wine. When the lawyers were cheering her on to drink the third glass, Stephen calmly pressed her hand, which was holding the glass, down.When everyone saw what had happened, they chimed in, "Everyone, watch out! Mr. Anderson is protecting his woman!""You men are drunk. Can't you see who you're asking to drink? If you offend the CEO's future wife, you'll all be dead meat!"Yvonne was unhappy. She pushed Stephen's hand away and raised h

Stephen was just about to say something when Yvonne took a step forward and tugged at the hem of the red dress.She lowered her gaze and said nonchalantly, "Yes, I am that petty. Which is why you can dream of wearing this dress."Before Jane could react, she heard fabric tearing. She lowered her gaze to see a pocketknife in Yvonne's hand. Yvonne had made a huge cut on the hem!The cut wasn't big enough to expose her body, but the dress was truly ruined!Jane was bewildered. She shoved Yvonne away. "You're a lunatic!""You were the one who took it without any permission. It's annoying to see you wear it." Yvonne put the pocketknife away and took a check out from her bag. "I might be petty when it comes to relationships, but I'm generous when it comes to money. This is compensation for your dress."Yvonne added, "By the way, if I may say something … A dress that isn't for you and a man who isn't for you are the same thing." She smirked. "You don't deserve it, no matter how
