Ch. 1671..1680
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 1671-Seeing his own son defying him publicly, Alvin, who was used to acting arrogantly as the head of the family, could not hold back any longer.
His eyes widened in anger, and he was about to walk toward Arnold.
At this moment, a graceful figure suddenly appeared and stopped him.
"Mila?!"
The next second, a loud slap echoed through the room, shocking everyone.
Mila's eyes were full of hatred as she raised her hand and slapped Alvin fiercely in the face.
The slap was anything but gentle, causing Alvin's cheeks to sting and swell, his ears buzzing from the impact.
"Mila… You hit me?! I'm your brother!" sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"My brother? Do I have a brother?"
Mila's brows furrowed sternly, her smile ruthless and cold. "Wasn't I already cast out of the Larson family by all of you, like Arnold? Besides, you're only an adopted son." Adopted son?
Aaron and Arnold were dumbfounded.
It was a family secret. As the younger generation, they did not know about it at all, and nobody told them either!
Mila chose this moment to reveal the most confidential secret of their family to the public, showing that she did not want to leave a shred of dignity for Alvin.
"Strictly speaking, I am the only true blood of the Larson family, the Larson Group's one and only daughter You only obtained some power in the Larson Group because my father is sexist and favors you. Otherwise, how would you have the audacity to try to oppress me using your status as my brother?"
"Mila Larson!" Alvin felt his vision darken out of anger, but he could not refute it.
Indeed, he was adopted.
Back then, Old Master Larson, who had been trying for a child but failed for many years, secretly adopted a boy from an orphanage with his wife to continue the family bloodline.
But five years after they brought Alvin into the family, Old Madam Larson became pregnant and gave birth to Mila, who carried on the bloodline.
Mila was sweet and smart. Old Master and Old Madam Larson cherished her and doted on her like their treasure. For a long time, this beautiful daughter even changed Old Master Larson's prejudice against women as leaders.
That was until Mila met the handsome and charming Wyatt Thompson at a highsociety ball.
If she had not made the shocking choice of being with Wyatt back then, she might be standing on equal footing with Alvin in the current Larson Group.
"This slap is for Arnold! Just because he treated Wyatt, you yented your!
grudge using the name of your family law. You don't deserve to be a father!"
Mila's eyes were bloodshot with anger. "But a slap is too lenient for
you. We'll see each other in the business field. As long as Ks Graup still stands Larsoh Group can forget.
about dominating Hatchbay Arnold, come with me!"
"Yes, Auntie!" Arnold immediately answered and was moved to tears.
At this moment, Arnold was perfectly obedient.
Bella and Justin met each other's eyes tacitly, and they sighed in relief.
They were afraid that the Larson family would use blood ties to bind Arnold and bend him to their will with patriarchal authority.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 1672-Fortunately, the Thompsons gave Arnold enough support. Arnold had also made up his mind.
The Larson family's plan fell apart, and they even received a beating.
On top of that, everyone got to hear a juicy piece of the Larson family's gossip.
It was a pleasant surprise!
The Thompson family took Arnold and left, looking like a true family.
Alvin stared at Mila's back resentfully, unwilling to accept defeat, but the Southern Star Syndicate's men were still blocking him. Alvin could only take this loss.
On the way back, Arnold wrapped his hands around Mila's shoulder, holding back his tears while teasing, "Aunt Mila, if you ever want to change your last name, hit me up." "Silly boy, it's just a surname. What can it represent?"
Mila smiled gently and grasped Arnold's hand tightly. "Your home is where your heart is."
Arnold did not speak, as tears streamed down his face silently.
"Arnold, I'm sorry for those harsh words I said to you earlier… I forced you into a corner. I'm really sorry." Mila was full of guilt.
"It's all in the past, Aunt Mila."
Arnold burst into a beautiful smile through the tears. "Let bygones be bygones. I only want to look forward."
Before they knew it, it was already nighttime.
The storm of public opinion was raging outside, but it was quiet in the hospital.
After a long day, Wyatt had fallen asleep. His family stayed by his side, seemingly affected by the series of blows.
Late at night, Asher called Bella and Justin out to talk in the backyard.
jel.
"Drew found out who exposed my relationship with Arnold. The money used to hire the paparazzi to expose us came from an overseas account under James Iverson's name.” Asher's dark eyes surged with anger, his hands curling into an iron-like fist on his side.
Clues that are usually only traceable by the police were merely a matter of time for Drew, who was a top-tier hacker and special agent.
"I knew it was that bastard!"
Bella's eyes bulged furiously. "James must have done this to get revenge on the Terranova resoftland deal.!
Asher splo the land to him, which turned out to be problematic. As a result, James lost his position as CEO, so of course he'd want revenge!"
Justin pondered for a moment, feeling suspicious. "Although the evidence points to Jamgs, and hel has enquigbof a motive, Asher is capable enough to hide… I mean, protect Arnold well." Phew… that was close. He almost blurted out, "Hide his lover!"
"Based on my understanding of James after dealing with him for many years in the business field, he has the smarts, but he doesn't have the foresight or depth to uncover the relationship between Asher and Arnold."
A cold storm brewed in Justin's Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
eyes. "I believe Asher is cautious enough, but he was still captured on camera. could only mean that the person had been watching them all along, and it might not just be them. The entire Thompson family was most likely under surveillance.
"This is the only possibility that could explain why their relationship was exposed coincidentally at the same time that Uncle Wyatt had another episode. It could sway Asher's position at the company and aggravate Uncle Wyatt, worsening his condition."
"Tsk, even if James had two heads, he couldn't come up with such a sinister plan to kill two birds with one stone."
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 1673-Bella and Asher stared fixedly at Justin. They spoke at the same time. "Are you suspecting Christopher?"
Christopher's name was the synonym for all evil now.
Justin curled his thin lips helplessly. "Sorry. I could be overly sensitive about this person. Whenever anything happens that involves the Iverson Group, I instinctively think of him."
"Justin, your thoughts are totally valid." Bella's gaze was gentle as she held his arm and supported her man. "When in doubt, blame Christopher. Besides, I think your analysis makes sense. Those three pig- headed Iverson siblings
combined could not outsmart Christopher. Otherwise, they wouldn't end up so miserably."
Justin looked at her beautiful and rosy face, chuckling dotingly.
"Justin's analysis isn't unreasonable."
Asher's gaze was dark. "I've been investigating him secretly. I don't need to emphasize how shady his business in Sentania is, but it's not the most important. What matters is that he has enough power and wealth to manipulate the elections. This meant he could rival a financial conglomerate.
"Back then, he was merely a discarded son of the Iverson family. He had no foundation and was dependent on his sickly and frail mother. Therefore, someone must be helping him behind the scenes to get him to his current position, even helping him return to Savrow to seize power.
"Not only that. He's been playing a wolf in sheep's clothing in the Iverson family.
When the obstacles who stood before him fall one by one, his true nature will be revealed inevitably."
Bella frowned and nodded. "Yeah. Christopher's influence far exceeds that of James, who was the CEO of Iverson Group. Christopher is always putting on a disguise."
"His only remaining obstacle now is James."
A sharp light flashed across Justin's eagle eyes. "In that case, the person who actually got those photos is most likely Christopher."
Asher's lips twitched, trying hard to suppress his surging anger.
"After getting the photos, he didn't want to dirty his hands, so he wanted to use James to expose it. With that, we couldn't trace it to him, and he could just sit back and watch."
Justin sneered, gritting his teeth. "Ha, what a good way to make use of James.
Such a vicious move is indeed his style."
"James had already been defeated by him and completely lost Lance's trust.
He's been kicked out of the Iverson Group's headquarters."
Bella pressed against the man's waist and blinked at him. "He could get anyone to expose it. Why did he give this opportunity to James? If were James and got my hands on this opportunity to tackle our enemy, I'd use it as leverage to negotiate with Lance. How does that benefit Christopher? Isn't it troublesome for him if James manages to rise again?"
Justin curled his lips, his voice gentle. "Bella, you're still too kind. Your siblings have a great relationship with you, and your family protects you too well. That's wonderful." Asher raised a brow, feeling rather amused.
Justin was truly blinded by love to call Bella kind.
It was true in a way. Bella could be like an angel when she was kind, but she could also turn into John Wick when she needed to be ruthless. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Justin could figure it out slowly.
"But you should know that there's no kinship in wealthy families. Siblings turning against each other and trying to tear each other down are all too common."
Justin's expression was as cold as ice. "How could merely dethroning James satisfy Christopher? He wanted to destroy James, ensuring James could never rise again."
"So… Asher and Arnold's relationship was only bait."
Bella's mind raced, her thoughts becoming clear with a little tip from him. Her eyes reddened. "He knew we would trace it to James, so he wanted to use us to eliminate James, thinking that we'd get rid of his last obstacle for him?"
Justin nodded slightly. "Bella, you're really smart."
"Fuck! That shameless man!"
Bella was enraged, bending down to pick up a stone and throwing it
fiercely at a tree trunk. "Does he think hes God?! He thinks everyone is, under his contre, and he can ° 11i manipulate anyone he wants? Fine.
Very well. I'll let him taste the consequences of playing with fire!"
The two men could not help but smile when they heard her words,!
lightening the tense atmosphere a little.
"Bella, you and Justin must get to the bottom of Dad's illness being exposed and seek justice for Dad."
Asher fell silent for a moment, his Qu
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 1674-Bella's breath hitched. "Asher, what do you mean?"
"Dad can no longer manage the company with his current physical condition.
With this public scandal around me, it's unsuitable for me to continue being the president."
Justin felt his heart tighten. "You didn't do anything illegal or harm anyone's interests. Why is it unsuitable?"
"My existence will just become a liability."
Asher's expression was casual, devoid of emotion. "As long as I'm still in this position, the public will only think of those photos when they see me and nothing
else. They will only remember that the CEO of KS Group is gay. I can disregard my image and become the laughing stock of the town, but not KS Group."
"Asher, are you resigning? You don't want to be the CEO anymore?!" Bella was so shocked that her voice trembled, feeling a wave of panic.
Asher's eyes curved into a relieved smile. "Yeah, I've talked to Dad about this and made my intentions clear. Bella, do you remember what I said when you returned home to see Dad? I said you were the most suitable person to be CEO and the perfect successor for KS Group. Don't feel bad for me. Honestly, I've been waiting for this day for so long. Being a CEO was never my ambition. I've felt pressured all these years and never relaxed. Now, you can finally take over, and I can finally live the life I wanted." Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Asher… I was joking with you. I am indeed ambitious and eager for power…
But, but…"
Bella's nose reddened, and tears stained her eyelashes as she began to choke up.
Justin knew how she felt, and he pulled her into his arms in distress, surrounding her with a deep sense of security.
"Silly girl, you're crying again."
Asher quickly comforted her. "I'm only resigning as the CEO. It's not a big deal.
KS Group will be in your hands now. You always used to shout about bearing the responsibility, and now you've finally gotten your wish. You must be overjoyed! But in the future, you might be very busy, and it will more or less affect your relationship. For that, I'm truly sorry."
"Asher, don't say that."
Justin's hand tightened on Bella's waist, veins bulging. His heart pounded wildly.
"If we don't want to be apart, I'll marry Bella as soon as possible. I'll do my best to accompany her and stick to her, as long as she doesn't find me annoying."
Bella bit her rosy lips shyly, leaning into his embrace. Her eyes curved into a lovely smile.
Asher smiled and teased, "My sister is a businesswoman. What if she becomes the breadwinner?"
"In my opinion, I'd rather cook for Bella than work for the Salvador Corporation."
Justin did not hesitate, looking at his lover with a passionate and genuine gaze.
"Bella only needs to be herself BUMS with me. And I only need to be by her side."
Bella felt a sweet warmth. She rubbed her head against his chest.
е "Although Bella has trained at the KS World Hotel, it's still a bit tough for her to step into this role suddenly. Please guide her in the future" Asher's tone became serious.
"Asher, you must be mocking me."
Justin could not help laughing. "When I crossed paths with Bella in the business field, I always lost to her. I'm in no position to guide her."
Bella said, "That's because you let me win."
"I really didn't let you win back then," Justin replied honestly.
Bella playfully jabbed her elbow into his ribs, sending a mixture of Pain' apd numbness throughout his body.
"Anyway, I'm assured with you by Bella's side. When Dad's condition stabilizes, I will bring him te Meridan for treatment with Arnold. Ill have to rely on you for the family and KS.
Group." Asher's lips curled. "If you miss Dad, me, or Arnold, you're welcome to visit anytime
The couple held each other's hands as they nodded.
At this moment, footsteps sounded behind them.
Asher could tell who it was just by the sound, and his heart skipped a beat.
"Arnold is here!"
Bella perceptively grabbed Justin's hand and started walking away.M "Take yourtinie to talk to Arnold.
We'll leave first!"
The moon hung high and bright in the night sky.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 1675-Asher and Arnold were both outstanding men with well-matched figures. Arnold stopped a few steps away, and they looked at each other. The clear moonlight shone on Arnold's gorgeous face, casting a gentle, soft glow that made it impossible for Asher to shift his gaze away.
"Asher…" He hesitated.
Asher walked toward Arnold, his eyes shining and his breath heavy.
"Asher, I…"
The next second, Asher wrapped his long arms around Arnold's waist and pulled him close.
Arnold's trembling lips met Asher's.
Their beautiful shadows merged.
After a long time, they separated. Arnold's lips were moist, and his narrow, foxlike eyes were dazed and hazy.
"This is the first time you kissed me." Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
His voice was sullen, soft, and vulnerable, making him seem extremely pitiful.
"Sorry, I've made you wait for so long."
Asher lowered his head, his warm breath spreading at the tip of Arnold's nose as he grasped his hand tightly, interlocking their fingers.
"From now on, I will take the initiative in everything."
Wyatt's illness was no longer a secret, and all sorts of rumors about this wealthiest man of Hatchbay were flying around on the Internet. Some even said that he was on his deathbed, but it was kept hidden by the Thompson family due to public scrutiny and stock prices.
Those photos of Asher's and Arnold's shocking romance disappeared from the Internet overnight.
Even if someone tried to repost them on social media, they would vanish in a minute.
The public thought Asher would call a press conference or publish a statement to clarify the situation, but three days had passed. The Thompsons remained quiet and did not take any action. It left the gossipers with no new material.
Five days later, the official website of KS Group and all major media published a press release.
The content was short and simple, but it shook the business world.
[To meet future development standards and requirements, after approval from the KS board of directors Asher Thompson has officially stepped down from his position as Vice Chairman of the board and CEO of KS Group, effective today.] Everyone thought that Asher took the blame and resigned.
After all, with such a scandal, his public image was damaged, and he could no longer become KS Group's spokesperson.
James was the most thrilled to hear this news.
Immediately after the announcement, he went to claim credit with Lance.
Seeing that he had made great contributions in dismissing Asher,!
Lange promiséd to reinstate James.
as the managing director.
Although James was not promised a full restoration of his position, he still grabbed onta this last lifeline and stabilized his footing in the Iverson Group.
As long as he could stay, he would surely get the opportunity to regain everything that belonged to him.
That bastard Christopher would not be able to prance around much longer!
That night, James, feeling smug and triumphant, hosted a party at Pivotage to celebrate his successful comeback.
Seeing as James had regained favor in the Iverson Group, his "friends"
prepared lavish gifts and buttered up to him.
His popularity seemed to return to James in an instant.
It was a scene of debauchery and indulgence in Pivotage.
Under the night sky, a tall figure stood there. The man's black trench coat fluttered inethe wind as he stared at the heavily guarded door.
He clenched his fists tightly.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 1676-It was already early morning at this moment. The two bodyguards stationed at the entrance of Pivotage were struggling to stay awake, forcing themselves to stay alert and wait for the next shift. One of the bodyguards suddenly froze while yawning. "Hey, listen. Did you hear something?"
"What? There's nothing."
"No, I heard something. It sounds like something is scaling the walls!"
The other bodyguard felt numb with fear. "I heard this place was a mass grave decades ago. Don't scare me in the middle of the night!" "Stay guard here. I'll check it out."
The first bodyguard grabbed his flashlight and walked to the back of the club warily. He shined the light around and then directed it up the wall.
The harsh white light just happened to brush past Drew, who stood on the edge of the windowsill with his hands in his pockets.
It was the fifth floor, and the windowsill he stood on was so narrow it could barely fit his feet. Losing his balance slightly would mean a fatal fall. However, Drew seemed stable and composed as he stood there and stared down at everything that was happening downstairs.
Seeing there was nothing unusual, the bodyguard scratched his head and left.
"How blind." Drew's eyes flashed coldly, and a fine glass cutter immediately appeared in his fingers.
With a few swift cuts, a huge hole appeared in the glass window. Drew quickly slipped in, as if entering somewhere uninhabited.
On the other side, James was fooling around with his cronies in a top-tier private room that had a minimum spend of seven figures.
He was still unsatisfied with having two women by his side and asked another curvy and sexy woman to straddle his thighs and feed him wine, mouth to mouth.
"Haha… I knew it! Mr. James, you are the chosen one, born to win! Your downturn is merely temporary, but you will forever stay at the peak now!"
"Exactly! How Could Christopher compare to Mr. James? That bastard was merely a dirty stray dog who got lucky. He forgot his place after getting a bone! Mr. James, you can't go easy on him. You must make him spit out everything he took from you!"
Upon hearing these words, James thought of the position he lost to Christopher and was enraged. He chased off all the women surrounding him. "Get lost!
Fucking get lost!"
The women scattered in fear.
An underling approached. "Mr. James, are these chicks not to your liking?"
"Tsk. Pivotage is nothing special!" James tugged his tie frustratingly.
"The hottest chick in Pivotage is actually their manager. I heard she's incredibly beautiful!"
A glint of lust flashed across James' eyes. "Oh?"
"That woman is quite mysterious. Apart from the VVIPs, she never entertains other customers and doesn't show her face easily. But I have a friend who was a reque
customer here. He was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of that SWay 8h the MindINgyellet website on Googli to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
woman once… She's a fucking stunner! Just one look at her, and he was hard!"
James' throat bobbed, and he tugged on his tie again, feeling a reaction below.
"He also told me that the woman looks really similar to the daughter of we conta hate serve you da bre like Bella herself. You could also experience Justin's happiness. How amazing!"
The crowd laughed loudly.
However, James expression was uglier than having eaten a dead IT cockroach. EVen his hardness faded.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 1677-Suddenly, James' eyes lit up as an evil thought came to mind.
Since he could not get his hands on Bella, he could at least vent his anger on the substitute!
He immediately called his secretary. His gaze was lascivious as he ordered, "Call the manager of Pivotage to have a drink with me."
Even though Yvonne was not planning to greet any customers tonight, she was still dressed to the nines from head to toe. She wore a light purple silk dress, revealing a large patch of flawless and fair skin on her back. She was sexy and exquisite.
It was the image she needed to maintain as Pivotage's manager. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Shaking the glass of wine in her hand, Yvonne walked into the monitoring room, full of screens.
Two employees there immediately got up and bowed. "Ms. Yvonne!"
"Is everything normal?" Yvonne's red lips pressed against the glass, taking a light sip.
"Yes. It's just that James brought some of his friends over and is having fun in Room S001."
An employee hesitantly asked, "Ms. Yvonne, James and Mr. Christopher are mortal enemies. What should we…"
"Since we are a business, all customers are welcome. James booked our most expensive private room, so we should give him a good time. Grudges don't interfere with making money."
Yvonne curled her lips disdainfully. "Tonight, the price for everything on the menu in S001 is doubled."
The two employees snickered. Yvonne was prepared to empty James' bank tonight.
Yvonne sipped her wine while sashaying to the surveillance screen, which was like an inescapable net, her eyes scanning the screens sharply.
Since she was a teenager, Christopher started training her in multiple aspects.
Surveillance was one of them, which honed her eyes to be as sensitive and keen as a detective's.
An ordinary person would only feel dizzy when they looked at these densely packed screens, but she could remember the faces of every single person who appeared on the surveillance cameras in a few minutes. If there were any anomalies, she could detect them in seconds.
Just as she prepared to leave, her pupils shrank suddenly, and she focused on a screen in the far corner.
Drew's hard-to-ignore, striking figure flashed by.
Although he disappeared in the blink of an eye, Yvonne still saw him. That image was etched deeply into her mind.
Drew was not a member of Pivotage, so how did he get in?
What was he planning?!
Yvonne breathed hard to calm her pounding heart and suddenly turned around, smiling. "You've worked hard the whole night looking at the surveillance cameras. I prepared some snacks in the lounge. Go on and take a break. I'll keep watch over here."
"Thank you, Ms. Yvonne! You're so kind!"
The two employees left happily.
Yvonne secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then skillfully began typing on the keyboard, pulling up the footage of Drew.
Under the high-definition surveillance camera, the man's handsome age struck her trembling pupils. His sharp eyes were cold as ice, irresistibly drawing her in.
But she had no time to admire it further, as she quickly deleted it.
Drew completely vanished from the surveillance.
Although Drew was a special agent.
with top-tier counter-surveillancen skills, he stil underestimated Christopher's meticulousness and Pivotage's surveillance system.
The so-called privacy was merely to ease the customers.
This place was riddled with spy cameras. It could be behind the mirror or inside the Hower fol. Even a fly would be caught by one of the cameras, let alone an adult man, and a strikingly handsome one at that.
However, Drew remained calm and moved swiftly without a care. If he could get in, he could get out.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 1678-Drew would find a way out, and he would also avenge his brother by crippling that son of a bitch, James.
He could not wait a minute longer!
Drew's hands were still in the pockets of his black trench coat as he sped toward the private room James was in. Suddenly, a pair of fair hands grabbed his arms, yanking him into the darkness with force.
Drew's gaze darkened, and the muscles on his arms bulged, ready to strike.
The space was limited between the narrow storage racks, forcing them to press their bodies tightly together.
As their eyes met, Drew finally caught a clear look at Yvonne's face.
"You…"
"Shh!"
Yvonne's forehead was covered with a layer of cold sweat, and she covered his mouth in a panic.
At the same time, a few steps away, a group of patrolling bodyguards just happened to walk past them.
Yvonne's hanging heart finally calmed down only after the sound of footsteps faded, and her trembling hand slowly lowered.
"Ms. Yvonne, what a coincidence."
Drew raised an eyebrow, curling his lips into a smirk, his warm breath brushing against her nose. "I didn't expect us to meet again in such an exciting and unique way." Yvonne stared deeply at him, feeling dazed.
This man was too special.
How did he manage to remain so calm and composed no matter what dangerous situation he was in?
"Ms. Yvonne, do you like to play hide and seek?"
Drew propped his arm against the shelf, trapping Yvonne under him. He smiled casually. "As Pivotage's manager, you have quite an exciting nightlife."
Yvonne's lashes fluttered. Seeing that her identity was exposed, she could not help but feel irritated. A desire to win surged within her.
"Mr. Brown, did you come here to get wasted or have fun?"
She sneered, poking at the man's chest muscles through his black shirt. "But everything here is quite expensive. Did you bring enough money?"
"You know my last name? Impressive." Drew's eyes narrowed playfully.
Yvonne's heart thumped wildly, and her fingertips curled.
She revealed something she should not have.
"Since you know my last name, do you know my first name?"
Drew suddenly grabbed her hand, a cocky grin spreading across his lips. "I'm Stingy Brown, and I like being a free-loader."
Yvonne was speechless.
"I came here tonight intending to leave without spending a penny. Ms. Yvonne, do you approve?" Drew's face was half in the shadows and his tone was icy.
His many years of being a special agent made playing along in such games his second nature, but he did not like it.
At this moment, he only had the patience to banter with this woman because he wanted to complete the mission that Bella entrusted him with.
Otherwise, he would have broken Yvonne's finger as soon as she touched his chest.
Yvonne finally dropped the pretense, her expression stiffening. She said in
a low voice, "Mr. Brown, you're not a customer here, so please leave immediately!" Season the com
The man smiled provocatively. "What if I don't? Will you kick me out? If you were, you wouldn't have helped me hiderjust how, right?" "What do you want to do? I'm not joking with you now!"
"I could just sign up for a membership."
"Drew Brown!"
In her panic, Yvonne blurted out his name and her true feelings. "Are you so eager to die in his hands?!"
Yvonne noticed the clock nearby, her anxiety growing as the time ticked closer to Christophet's return. This place is nolas simple as you think.
Do you know what's waiting for you if you get caught?!"
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 1679-In an instant, Yvonne felt as if her throat was sealed. She held her breath.
Drew's brows furrowed as he scrutinized the woman's flushed face. A hint of contempt rippled through his heart. 'Should I die in Christopher's hands? Or hers?' He did not forget that night when Yvonne approached him with ulterior motives and that poisoned brooch hidden in her hair.
How interesting.
She and her boss, Christopher, must have come to a consensus. One of them was playing the bad cop, and the other was playing the good cop.
This must be part of their scheme too. Christopher wanted to use Yvonne to seduce Drew, acting as if she had saved him.
Did they think that Drew was stupid or that he would be seduced by a woman so easily?
Even if Drew were a pervert who thinks with his dick, his desires would have been quelled after seeing her face.
The smile on Drew's face sent a chill down Yvonne's spine. She pursed her lips tightly, her back against the cold metal rack.
"Oh? Ms. Yvonne, your words made me curious. Who's hands will I die in?"
"In any case, you should leave immediately…"
"That evil, cunning son of a bitch that looks like a sissy?"
Drew was referring to Christopher. His brows were raised disdainfully. "Let him come. I'll see what he's got."
Yvonne's dark and bright eyes widened, her mind almost snapping from the tension. Her voice trembled slightly. "You… When did you know?" Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"When I first met you in the bar, I saw you get in his car."
Drew's lips curved playfully, his cool fingertips pinching her chin. "But don't be afraid. Even if I know you work for him, I won't do anything to you. You are your own person." A ripple stirred in Yvonne's calm heart, and she felt a sense of warmth.
But the next second, the man's words made her heart plummet.
"Besides, with your face, I couldn't bear to harm you." Drew smiled and touched her ear. His voice was hoarse.
Yvonne felt a sting in her heart. Her slender hands pressed against his chest as she tried to push him away. "I know my face looks like your sister, but I'm not Bella Thompson."
Drew sensed her fluctuating emotions. His gaze darkened, and he scoffed. This woman wore Bella's face to thrive in the business of pleasure and obtain Christopher's favor. She was benefiting from this face. He did not complain, yet she was already upset. Was that not hypocritical?
Yvonne suppressed her stirring emotions and said softly, "Mr. Christopher will not let go of anyone who intrude's on Pivotage. I don't e care what you came for, but where there's life, there's hope. You can do whatever you want elsewhere, but not in Pivotage! If he returns, you won't be able to escape, no matter how skilled you are!"
Drew laughed. "Is that so? Then I should stay and see for myself."
"Drew… Even if you don't care about yourself, what about Ms. Bella?!"
Seeing that time was slipping away, Yvonne panicked and suddenly grabbed the man's collar. "I don't have a family, but even go to m understandthaf feeling! If anything happens to you, wouldn't your family be sad for you? Wouldn't Ms Bella be heartbroken? How can you be accountable to anyone by throwing your life away recklessly? Isn't Chairman Thompson in the hospital?
Can't you think of him?!"
Instantly, their noses were about to touch.
The woman's warm breath, tinged with the scent of sweet red wine,
lingered near Drew's sharp jawline His dark eyes reflected the tiny, m glimmers of light in her eyes when she Was provoked, and his brows furrowed with gloom.
Was being considerate of him part of her plan? Did she want to be thorough with her act?
"James is here, right?" His short sentence enlightened Yonnes "Dial you come bebalise you want to avenge Mr. Asher?"
"Ha, Ms. Yvonne, you know everything that's happening. It's a waste of talent to have you managing Pivotage."
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 1680-Drew curled his lips and smirked. "I only mentioned James once, yet you immediately knew I came for revenge. Not only that, you knew it was for my brother." Yvonne's face burned. No matter how cunning and clever she was, her brain would not work in front of this man. She fell right into his trap.
"I work beside Mr. Christopher. I know about things happening in the Iverson Group…"
Suddenly, Yvonne's breath hitched. This time, it was Drew who covered her mouth.
At the same time, the footsteps of two bodyguards gradually became closer.
"Hmm? Why did I hear someone talking?"
Their footsteps stopped beside the storage rack.
Yvonne's forehead was covered in a layer of sweat as her heart raced.
However, Drew's gaze was calm as he cupped the back of her head, his fingers threading through her hair. He slowly pressed her head against his chest.
Instantly, Yvonne relaxed completely, closing her eyes.
"Was there any sound? You must've misheard."
"Hmm… Maybe I'm hearing things. I've been exhausted lately. Let's hurry to the lobby. Mr. Christopher is returning soon!"
The footsteps left hurriedly.
However, Drew was still hugging Yvonne in the same position. Their breaths intertwined, and neither of them moved.
"James brought quite a crowd today. With the security at Pivotage, you'll suffer quite a loss, even if you are exceptionally skilled."
Yvonne inhaled the sharp scent of tobacco from his black shirt, her ears turning red. "If your purpose is to take revenge on James, I have a safer way."
Drew looked down at her. "What?"
"Come with me."
Yvonne skillfully avoided all the cameras on the way, bringing Drew into her room.
For now, this is the safest place in all of Pivotage.
After locking the door, Yvonne immediately ran to her study.
Drew followed after her, and at the same time, his instincts made him warily scan through every corner of the room.
The king-sized bed's headboard was lined with cute stuffed animals. There was a pink bunny, a yellow golden retriever, and a black-and-white striped clumsy penguin. Drew could not help but feel surprised.
He thought a sexy woman like her, who immersed herself in the sensual world of pleasure, would have a mountain of luxurious items in her room.
She was very different from his sister, who loved handling weapons from a young age.
Soon, Yvonne took an envelope from the bottom drawer of her desk and handed it to Drew.
The man took it, confused. "What's this?"
"Mr. Christopher ordered me to investigate this. Over the years, James used the charity scholarship fund under the Iverson Group's name to force those girls into sexual transactions."
Afraid of wasting time, Yvonne
spoke quickly. "Many of the victims are minors. Not only did he coerce and tempt them into giving their bodigs to powerful men, but he also violated these girls. I don't have time to explain it to you. You'll understand once you go through these."
Drew was immediately enraged, his eyes reddening. "Fuck… That sick bastard Lance Iverson has raised a group of sexual offenders! James, that son of a bitch! I'll cut his dick off and feed it to dogs!"
"The Iverson brothers are birds of a feather. Charles is openly vile, but James is more disgusting than his brother He's a complete hypocrite using charity to cover his crimes and paving his way with those girls' tears and blood. Go home and read through it. Each case is
make anyone explodenough to with anger!"
Yvonne stomped her feet angrily, but she forgot she was wearing high heels, so her body stumbled o M sideways.
Drew reacted quickly. His muscled arms immediately held her thin waist, enabling her to balance herself.
"Thank, thank you." Yvonne's voice was soft, her cheeks flushing.
