After the confrontation, Philip stopped contacting Stephen. Everyone in Anderson Mansion was wise enough not to bring the whole thing up. They didn't want to make Philip angry.Meanwhile, Stephen's days went on as if nothing had ever happened. During this period, he only received a text from Linda, encouraging him to follow his heart's desire. But no one knew that Yvonne had already blocked him.He decided to reach out again after the whole mess had subsided.However, before that could happen, Elvin made an appearance. Since Julian knew Elvin well, he knew who it was when the front desk told him a child was looking for Stephen.Julian wasn't one to take his boss' affairs lightly, so he headed straight for the conference room. Yet the tense atmosphere that greeted him when he got there made his steps falter. Julian stopped and assessed the situation.It seemed like the meeting between Noah and Stephen had taken a turn for the worse while Julian had stepped out to answer the p

"I saw online that you want to remarry my mommy." Elvin fixed his eyes on Stephen and enunciated his words clearly. "I don't agree."Stephen frowned. "It's not your place to object to it.""My mommy won't get married to you again. You're a bad man. I don't like you, nor does my mommy," Elvin continued. Stephen's face darkened. "Then in your eyes, who's a good man? Caleb?" "Yes!" Elvin replied resolutely. Julian immediately stepped forward to defend Elvin and looked at Stephen with a troubled expression. "Mr. Anderson, don't take his words to heart." Yvonne cared deeply about Elvin. If Stephen were to do something to the little boy for real, things would only get worse.Stephen knew that Julian was telling him to calm down. Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath and ordered coldly, "Send him back to where he came from." "I'll do it right now." Julian nodded in a hurry. He turned around to pull Elvin along with him. However, the little boy shoved Julian's hand off and gla

"I just want to have a chat with you. Why are you keeping me at arm's length, Ms. Miller?" Noah approached her and curled up the corners of his lips. "I heard that Stephen wants to remarry you. What do you think about it?""I don't think this has anything to do with you, Mr. Noah," she said. However, Yvonne's indifference didn't stop him from getting closer to her. He stood right in front of her, so close that he could get a clear look at her delicate face when he lowered his eyes. Noah's eyes glinted. "Ms. Miller, I told you that we could become great business partners. My opinion on that still hasn't changed. I'm still waiting for you to reconsider it."He added, "You know, I think highly of you, Ms. Miller. I don't want you to make the wrong decision." He raised his hand and wanted to push the loose strands of her hair from her shoulder.However, Yvonne took a step back and dodged his touch. "Whether it turns out to be right or wrong, the decision is still mine."Noah wa

"I dislike people like you the most! You guys always have a mask on, and your words are nothing but lies!" Dylan spat on the floor and continued, "Listen up, I'm not going to let you guys have the dock! Tell your people to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'm going to have you killed and hang your corpse out for everyone to see!" The border had always been in a state of turmoil, with violence and firearms going unchecked. If Dylan dared to say something like that, he naturally had the ability to do so.However, Stephen showed no signs of fear. Staring straight into Dylan's eyes, he said, "I've already acquired the dock. Your business is nothing more than a small logistics company. Do you think you can keep the dock with you just by taking my life?""You ..." Exasperated, Dylan pressed the broken glass against Stephen's neck. "Damn! Are you not afraid of death?"The sharp end scratched Stephen's skin, leaving a streak of red. Nevertheless, there were no changes in his expr

Reluctantly, Yvonne opened the door. She leaned against the door frame and stretched out her legs, showing no intention of letting him in. "What's the matter?" she asked lazily."I forgot to ask you how you knew that I was at the border." His voice was soft as he looked straight into her eyes."I saw Noah. He spoke a lot and inadvertently made me realize something," Yvonne said briefly, pulling a long face. "I've known Mark for a long time, and I understand him better than you do. There's no way you'll gain any advantage by making a deal with him. You've seen it yourself. Even if Mark requested shares from you, he isn't genuinely interested in collaborating. "He's aiming for complete control of Anderson Group and a person he can manipulate. Currently, Noah fits the bill perfectly."Hearing that, Stephen frowned slightly. "El told you?""Yes." Yvonne sneered. "He's my son, so naturally he's on my side. Why would he listen to you? Mr. Anderson, it's amusing that you would actuall
