"Of course not." Yvonne leaned against the door and met Stephen's gaze. The light reflected from her eyes shimmered radiantly. "After the holidays, Katie would definitely go to the border. By then, I will settle accounts with her … " Yvonne raised an eyebrow and smiled cunningly. "Do you want me to help you catch a big fish?" "What?" Stephen was taken by surprise. His attention was fully focused on Yvonne's smile. He hadn't heard anything she had said just now. "Noah is supporting Katie. If something happens, she will definitely go to him first." Yvonne paused for a moment. "Of course, Noah probably wouldn't care about her, considering his personality. But Katie is no fool. I believe she has a backup plan." At this point, Yvonne asked, "What about the investigation regarding Mr. Anderson Senior falling into the water?" "There were no footprints of another person by the lake, so the police concluded that Grandpa had slipped and fell into the water. However, I doubt this ma

Yvonne snorted and said, "Did you think I would look forward to your surprise and fall for the suspense?" As she spoke, she turned her face away while sipping her tea. She pretended to be disinterested. However, once her curiosity was piqued, it was difficult to suppress the anticipation. Yvonne lost interest in her tea. She put down the cushion and ran over to Elvin to play with the firecrackers. In the soft glow of the lights, Yvonne's smile looked radiant. She wanted to light the crackers, but she seemed a little afraid of it. With one hand on her ear and the other dragging Britney, they ran away before the firecrackers exploded. Yvonne and Britney clapped enthusiastically when the firecrackers went off. At that moment, Stephen felt the woman before him right now was the true side of Yvonne. She was meant to have such a brilliant smile. "Mr. Anderson." Curtis' voice interrupted his thoughts, and Stephen snapped back to reality. Turning to him, Stephen asked, "Yes?"

After the holidays, Yvonne struggled to tell Elvin that she was going on another business trip. However, Elvin seemed to have figured out Yvonne's thoughts. During breakfast, he asked, "Mommy, are you going on another long trip?"It had been less than a month since Yvonne's last departure.Elvin had already known that Yvonne wouldn't be able to keep her promise, but he held no grudges against her.He looked at Yvonne with clear and bright eyes. "Mommy, you don't need to worry about me. I won't be upset. You can do whatever you want. I can't do anything to help you, but I don't want to hold you back either."Yvonne was shocked. She didn't expect a five-year-old child to be so understanding.She ruffled Elvin's hair and chuckled. "Thank you for understanding, sweetheart.""Then, as a reward ... could you tell me what the bad man said to you that night?" Elvin asked tentatively.Yvonne immediately frowned. "Kids shouldn't ask too much about adult matters."Elvin shrugged his sho

On the day of the meeting, Katie carefully applied exquisite makeup. She wanted to leave a good impression on the new boss.Standing outside the office door, Katie wore what she believed to be the most appropriate smile. Then, she respectfully pushed the door open and entered the room.The next second, Her smile froze on her lips.Katie's eyes widened in disbelief. "What are you doing here?"Yvonne sat on the couch with her long legs crossed elegantly. She radiated an air of authority. She raised her eyes to meet Katie's, her red lips curling into a smirk. "Aren't you here to meet me?""You ..."Katie's mouth hung open for what felt like an eternity. The new boss she had been eagerly waiting for turned out to be Yvonne!Seeing Katie's surprised expression, Yvonne seemed quite satisfied. "That's right, I'm the new boss of the mines!"For a fleeting moment, Katie wished to close her eyes and return to the past.This reality was even scarier than a nightmare!"Aren't you here to

In the following week, Yvonne stayed at the border mining area to handle some affairs. She had just taken over the entire mine. There was still a lot she needed to learn. She had to thoroughly grasp the situation to effectively plan for the upcoming projects.This morning, Howard hurriedly entered the office. "Ms. Miller, I got it!"Yvonne looked up. "Yes?""A woman called Emma Bass had contact with Mark back then. She had illegally immigrated to the border and settled here. I've arranged for her to come and meet you."Listening to this, Yvonne stood up excitedly. "Great! Arrange a meeting at a nearby restaurant. There's nothing good to entertain her in the mining area.""Sure, I'll take care of it."Howard was about to leave but suddenly remembered something else. "By the way, Katie returned to the country last night. She spent several days in the mine and at the market. I don't know what she's up to.""There's not much she can do in my territory. She's only passing the time
