After Jim and Curtis left, Miller Villa seemed much emptier.That night, after reading Elvin his bedtime story, Yvonne looked down to find him staring at her. She smiled. "Why are you not asleep yet? Are you missing Great Grandpa and Uncle Curtis?""No. I know Uncle Curtis has gone to get his legs treated. I hope he'll get better soon." Then, Elvin blinked. "Mommy, there's a performance at school next week. Will you come?"Yvonne was surprised. "Have you joined a performance?"Elvin furrowed his brows. "No. I don't like prancing around.""Then, why do you want me to be there?" Yvonne asked.Elvin shook his head, but he seemed hesitant. He bit his finger.Yvonne was curious. "Why did you suddenly bring up the school performance?""I …" Elvin furrowed his brows so much that his face was all scrunched up. "I was just wondering why all the adults like little children prancing about."All this time, he had observed that Stephen seemed to like Britney even more. On the way h

A week later, Hope Health Services officially announced their collaboration with Well Spring Pharma.At Chuck's request, Yvonne cooperated with him to hold a press conference.Within a month, Hope had held two press conferences about collaborations. Naturally, it caught the attention of every medical media outlet.The reporters seized their chance and asked all the questions."Ms. Miller, with the two most recent collaborations, is this a sign that Hope Health Services is planning to enter this market and become the country's top medical institution?""Mr. Jensen, Well Spring Pharma's focus has always been abroad. This time, you have collaborated with Hope Health Services. Are you planning to enter the market in the country?"Yvonne smiled and replied as generically and politely as possible."Hope Health Services is just focusing on what they do best. As for which direction we'll be heading, I can't talk much about it. I would just like to ask you to pay attention to our work."

In the car, Katie rested her head on her hand while listening to Hazel nag at Noah."You're going to be a father. How could you stay out drinking the entire night? Noah, I always thought that you were a sensible child. What happened to you? "Don't you know that the most important thing is Katie's child? We need to continue our bloodline!"Noah was instantly infuriated. "Alright, you've been nagging the entire way. Have you had enough yet?""You …" Hazel had accidentally hit Noah's sore spot. She didn't dare say anything else, lest it trigger him. She turned to look at Katie. "You as well. You're pregnant. You should be careful. You didn't need to go to those gatherings. Don't overwork yourself either."Hazel had only heard that Katie had passed out and been sent to the hospital this morning. Hazel had been so worried that her heart had nearly burst out of her chest.At the hospital, she had immediately asked the doctor about Katie's situation. Luckily, Katie's child was fine.

Finlay hesitated for a long time. In the end, he lowered his head and said, "J—just ask the question, Ms. Miller." Yvonne smiled. "Wouldn't it be nice if you cooperated with me sooner? Just tell me, why did Katie give you so much money?"Although Finlay was a man, bringing up things like that in front of Yvonne was quite embarrassing. He stuttered all the way through before finally coming clean.The situation was almost as Yvonne guessed it to be. Katie had borrowed a young man's sperm to get pregnant.However, Finlay didn't know about that. He just thought that Katie had the hots for him. As for Katie's message saying that his mission was completed, he had no idea what it meant.After telling Yvonne everything, Finlay pleaded, "Ms. Miller, I have a girlfriend. I really have no feelings for Ms. Jones. Please don't let Mr. Noah know about this.""I've already promised you that." Yvonne kept the audio recorder and stood up. She towered over Finlay and looked down on him. "If I w

"Ms. Hawk, just treat yourself at home here. I'll take care of you. Of course, that's if you're obedient. If not …" Chuck chuckled. "I myself don't even know what I'll do."Then, he turned around and switched on the lights on the cabinet behind him. All the tools needed for torture were on display.As someone from Emerald Group, Gwen naturally knew what each tool was meant for. Chuck's tools were even more complicated than the ones the Group had!Gwen gritted her teeth and glared at Chuck. She wanted nothing more than to kill him right now!However, Chuck wasn't afraid. In fact, he was excited. He bawled out laughing. "No wonder you're Gwen Hawk of Emerald Group. You're much stronger than an ordinary woman. When all of them saw the wall of tools, they immediately kneeled and begged me for mercy. How boring!"He suddenly hit the cage. It rang out with a clang, echoing in the entire basement.Gwen still looked murderous. Chuck was even more delighted. His expression turned even
