The next day, the plane landed safely. Yvonne and Stephen rushed to the hospital's mortuary to see Claude's body.Yvonne did a simple check-up and found a tiny needle scar on his arm, which could have been easily overlooked."He must have been injected with something to cause a heart attack." Yvonne furrowed her brows. "It's too bad I can't go past the family's consent to do an autopsy. If not, I could find out if his heart attack had been caused by his sickness or drugs."If she could get an accurate autopsy report, it would help her weave her story better and shut the mouths of the executives in Emerald Group.However, at that moment, the right to explain was in her hands. The autopsy report wasn't important anymore.Yvonne pushed the corpse back into the mortuary fridge and instructed, "We'll hold a funeral for Claude in three days. Spread the news immediately.""Yes, Ms. Miller!" her subordinate responded before leaving the mortuary.Stephen went up to her and asked, "Have

That night, Yvonne opened the door and entered a room. The only light in the room came from a lamp lit on the nightstand next to the bed.Hearing sounds, Jane looked up to see Yvonne. She immediately squirmed and whimpered through the gag around her mouth, as if she were complaining.Yvonne went in closer and pulled a chair beside the bed. "As things stand, what else do you want to do? What could you do? Jane, if you're smart, you'll listen to me. I wasn't going to make things difficult for you, but it's too bad. Your behavior today has let me down."She added, "Keeping you will just be a problem in the future."The light shone on half of Yvonne's face. The other half of it was in the dark, yet the smirk and condescending expression on her face were as clear as day.Jane looked at her with eyes widened in bewilderment. Her face lost all its color. What did Yvonne mean by that? Was she going to kill her like she had killed Leonard and Claude? Was Yvonne mad?Jane let out muffl

After dealing with Claude's matters, Yvonne could finally take a breather.The night before she left, she got her men to pack up Claude's belongings. She realized that Claude's phone had always been off.She charged the phone. Soon, it lit up. Then, countless notifications bombarded the phone.Messages from Anthony of Well Spring Pharma caught her attention. She tapped into the notifications to see Anthony pleading sincerely with Claude."Claude, when you see this message, please give me a call. I have important things to discuss with you."There were 20 or more messages like that.The rest were Anthony's concerns about Claude, asking after him. But his intention was just to get Claude to contact him as soon as possible.Yvonne looked at the messages and couldn't help but snicker.Stephen, who was sitting next to her, looked over. "What is it?""Nothing. I just find it interesting." Yvonne showed him the phone. "Anthony's treating Claude as a lifesaver. If he were to find ou

A snowstorm occurred early in the morning, covering the entire city in darkness.A group of men were secretly sneaking through the alleys of the city. Mark's leg hadn't recovered yet. Every step he took was excruciating, but he didn't slow down because of it.Even though it was cold, he was sweating profusely. His safety goggles fogged up from the heat, but his gaze remained determined.As long as he escaped, he would have the opportunity to gather men once more.He wasn't going to let any of them off the hook! Yvonne, Stephen, Kendrick—no one! No one could take what belonged to him!The ambition and hatred were raging in his heart, fueling him to quicken his steps. He no longer felt the pain.…After two hours of walking, the sky brightened a little.They were crossing the road by the periphery of the city when they heard someone from behind yelling, "Stop right there!"Benji was alarmed. He shoved Mark in front and instructed quickly, "Mr. Miller. Go right ahead. Run to th

Stephen seemed to have noticed it. He looked at Yvonne. "What is it?"Yvonne looked away rather awkwardly. "N-Nothing."To cover up her panic, she immediately took a mouthful of pancakes. The second, she burned her tongue, and her face scrunched up in discomfort.Laughter rang out around her. Britney was the happiest. She laughed so hard that she fell on Stephen.Meanwhile, Elvin was trying to hold back his laughter. He tried to stay calm and passed Yvonne some tissues.Yvonne accepted the tissues and wiped her mouth. From the corner of her eye, she could still see Stephen smiling. She blushed.She was feeling a little wronged. It must be because she hadn't had enough sleep. If not, she wouldn't have made a fool of herself in front of Stephen.After breakfast, Yvonne held Elvin's hand and went ahead, leaving Stephen and Britney behind.Britney asked Stephen, "Dad, is Aunt Yvonne angry at me? Was I bad for laughing at her?""She's not angry at you." Stephen smiled and looked at
