Aston was hiding in a run-down building in the suburbs. All this while, Stephen's men had been focusing on checking hotels and rental places. So they had overlooked the building. That was why Aston had managed to stay hidden for such a long time.Thanks to Yvonne's lead, the men finally narrowed down the search area after watching the surveillance footage. That's how they caught Aston so quickly after the call.Before leaving, Stephen told Julian to be careful and not startle Aston. He was afraid that Aston would go crazy and hurt Britney.Julian had always been a reliable person. After receiving orders, he quickly got his men to surround the building and slowly sweep through level by level.Before Aston could properly react, two men in black had already pinned him to the ground.Britney cowered in the corner, sobbing in fright. "Dad! I'm scared!"Julian quickly went forward and wrapped Britney in his jacket, blocking her view at the same time. "Britney, you're alright. Your fa

Linda sat down and looked at Yvonne gratefully. "Yvonne, Stephen told me about it. We were only able to find Britney because of your crucial lead. You've helped me too much."Linda choked up. "I really can't imagine what would have happened if Britney had been taken away by Aston. I … I blame myself. If it hadn't been for me, Britney wouldn't have suffered."As Yvonne saw Linda's reddening eyes, she frowned. "Britney is doing alright, right?""Yes, luckily she's alright. If not, I would never forgive myself." Linda lowered her gaze. "I've been thinking about my past a lot recently. I have made so many mistakes. Having Britney was one of them. Yvonne, you have no idea how big a deal it is to me that you rescued Britney this time."Before coming over, Linda had prepared a lot of things that she wanted to say to Yvonne. Yet, now that she was facing Yvonne, she didn't know where to begin. She could only say what came to her mind.She clenched her fists, as if finally mustering her c

"That old man has a manor, right? Get him to go there around New Year's. Leave the rest to me," Mark said lazily. "Since you've already made your choice, you better not regret it. You're the one who wanted him dead. Don't cause me any trouble later on.""Don't worry. I won't make it difficult for you. I'll go according to your plan." Noah hung up and looked up at the sky viciously. Philip brought it upon himself. He couldn't blame Noah. Katie looked at Noah's back through the glass door and felt a chill run down her back. Her instincts told her that it had been no ordinary call.That night, Noah stayed at Katie's. Katie could clearly feel that he was much more excited after the call. He had his full share of pleasure before letting go of Katie. When Katie saw that Noah was sound asleep, she carefully got up and reached over to him to grab his phone from the nightstand. She was so nervous that she held her breath. With his phone in her hand, she turned her back toward hi

In the end, Yvonne caved in and said yes to Amy. Besides, she still felt a little guilty about the recent counterfeit scandal.Amy was so delighted that she almost jumped out of her chair. "Ms. Miller, I love you! I'll treat you to a fabulous meal!"Looking at Yvonne's back, Boaz smiled even wider.Yvonne turned around to meet his eyes. She found him annoying. "Can you go now?""Are you chasing me away?" Boaz looked hurt.However, Yvonne was irritated at him at that moment. "Are you planning to wait for the security to escort you off?"Boaz was speechless. He had never met such a hostile woman in his life.Right at this moment, Hayden entered. With a troubled look, she reported, "Ms. Miller, Mr. Anderson is here."Before Yvonne could reply, Stephen stepped right into her office and looked at Boaz coldly. "Why are you here?"Boaz smiled politely. "What a coincidence. You're here to see Ms. Miller too."Stephen saw the smugness in Boaz's eyes and grimaced.Yvonne realized that

After William and Hazel sent Philip to the manor, they eagerly called Noah. "We've done everything. When are you arriving?""We'll see. Just stay with Grandpa for now." Noah brushed them off and found an excuse to hang up on them.Katie immediately went to him and laid on his chest. "Was it your parents?""Don't ask so many questions," Noah said coldly. He turned to place his phone on the nightstand and asked, "Are you doing anything on New Year's Eve?"Katie was surprised. "Are you planning on spending it with me?""Hmm." Noah looked at Katie gently. "I've known you for so long, but I don't think I've ever spent any holidays with you.""So you've finally realized!" Katie complained and buried herself in his arms. "You've never done it before. But I'll forgive you for asking me out this time!"Then, Katie happily chatted about different ways to celebrate New Year's, as if she were describing her perfect date.Noah listened to her silently. He placed his hand on Katie's should
