Chapter 101
“I went abroad because I wanted. Just like I want to come back, then I’m here now.” Charlotte stared at Michael, “I’m sorry for that dress. That Female client was important. After all, she was Jack’s client!”
Michael looked at Charlotte and said nothing.
Michael thought, “Ms. Yancey has grown up, but she is still willful and forced me to eat such unsavory noodles.”
“Hey! I have said sorry to you. Don’t you forgive me?”
Michael said calmly, “It doesn’t matter.”
Charlotte smiled.
“Does your forehead hurt?”
“No, it’s just that the gauze is a little tight.”
“It’s to stop your bleeding.”
“Got it.”
The white Maserati stopped on the lawn in front of Goldbay Estate. Jack had been back for five minutes.
He stood by the window and looked out of it with his deep eyes.
It was getting dark, and nothing could be seen outside. Jack came back exactly in time.
He took a sip of the whiskey and put one hand in his pocket.
If Charlotte was brought back here, she would go for a walk at night to digest and ask him to watch the stars with her. He couldn’t take care of her, or his disease could be easily exposed.
Moreover, Charlotte talked too much. Once she knew the secret of Jack’s eyes, she would inadvertently blurt it out. If Samantha knew about it, she would hold it against Jack.
Jack looked calm and took another sip of his whiskey.
At that time, Josef would also be worried about him. Samantha would take the opportunity to advise him to treat his illness, and it was just a matter of time before she could get the company.
And with Samantha’s style of behavior, she would definitely reveal his illness and cause the company turmoil.
As a president of a company, Jack should deal with lots of matters every day, so he needed to be in good health.
So Jack had been very cautious all these years.
After thinking for a while, he recalled this afternoon. Samantha took people to Violet’s house. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
He took out his phone and dialed a number. Then he ordered in a low voice, “Zephyr, go protect Ms. Yeager secretly from now on. I’ll give you her address.”
Dustin was enough for Josef.
Jack was worried that Samantha suffered a loss today and wouldn’t give up.
Jack kept thinking until it was late at night.
The next morning, the sky was turning bright in the east.
Jack had just finished breakfast when he sat on the sofa in the living room, holding his phone and making a call. “Okay, thank you, Leo.” He smiled gently.
Putting down his phone, Jack took the car key and left.
In the driver’s seat, Jack looked cold and calm.
The car left the villa but didn’t head for the company.
At this time, in the Yancey manor.
Josef was practicing light exercise in the lush courtyard, accompanied by a row of people. The sunlight mottled on his shoulders through the gaps between leaves. He breathed fresh air while moving slowly but professionally, with birds and flowers surrounding him, all looking quiet and happy.
Suddenly, Dustin took out his phone and handed it to Josef with both hands respectfully. “Mr. Yancey, your call.”
Josef stopped, took the phone, and looked at it. Then he put it on his ear and said, “Hello, Leo.”

“Mr. Yancey, are you free?” The middle-aged man’s voice came, “I put a lot of fries into the pond last spring. Now they have grown up, and I want to invite you to come fishing. At noon, we can make some roasted fish in the yard, drink some wine, and play chess. What do you think?”
Everything sounded tempting to Josef.
So he agreed quickly, “Okay. I’ll be right there!”
Josef went into the room to take a shower, changed into casual clothes, and left with Dustin in a good mood.
Not long after his car left the island, the white Maserati drove onto the causeway and missed it perfectly. Then the Maserati drove towards the Yancey manor.
Jack deliberately lured Josef away.
“Bad news, Jack is back!”
Lily saw the familiar car coming this way in front of the window on the second floor, and her heart suddenly tighten. Samantha, who was putting on her coat, paused and frowned slightly after hearing this.
Lily said, “Mr. Josef Yancey just left.”
Everyone knew that Jack wouldn’t go back to the villa if nothing happened. During the past years when Josef was not at home before, it was difficult for Jack to return to the villa once a year.
“He took Mr. Josef Yancey away.” Samantha concluded and said while buttoning up her coat, “If he mentions the drug thing, just refuse to admit it. Anyway, he has no evidence. I’m his stepmother at least. He can’t do anything to me.”
Lily didn’t speak. She was unhappy and thought, ‘You deserve it.
Isn’t it good to be peaceful and fine?
You could have a peaceful meal with everyone else together during the festivals and get along with them well at ordinary times. Isn’t that good?’
“What are you thinking about?” Samantha walked up to Lily with her sharp eyes. “Can you stand firm? Lily, I hate you more than before!” After saying that, Samantha went out.
Lily stood there, looking at the door where Samantha’s back disappeared. She was sad alone.
She couldn’t persuade Samantha. The situation would be out of control.
The situation was complicated enough. And now there was a Violet who was not easy to deal with.
As soon as Samantha went downstairs, Jack entered the living room. He looked at the middle-aged woman with cold eyes, obviously without good intentions.
“Mr. Yancey.”
The ser vants left after saluting, feeling the aura of fighting.
After a while, there were only two people left in the living room.
Jack didn’t greet Samantha but walked towards the sofa. He sat with his legs folded elegantly, his hands unfolded on the back of the sofa, and his eyes fixed on the middle-aged woman’s face. He looked cold.
Samantha looked at him and took a deep breath when seeing his domineering sitting posture.
She thought, “Is he here to inquire about my guilt?”
Samantha tried to calm herself down.
“Ms. Ziegler, we have something to deal with,” Jack said lightly. “You should be not surprised by my arrival, right?”
Jack even used the appellation of “Ms. Ziegler”.
Samantha smiled slightly, stepped towards Jack, and sat down opposite him. “I don’t know what you mean. If I went to find Violet yesterday, I think you can understand. My brother was hurt so badly that I couldn’t help losing control of myself.” “It’s not about this,” Jack said coldly.
Samantha took the coffee set and poured coffee for him. “What else did I do?”
“What do you think?” Jack didn’t want to answer directly. Since he came here, he had patience.
Samantha pretended to think seriously, looked at him confusedly, and then shook her head.
Jack smiled, “It seems that you don’t want to admit it.”

“What’s the matter?” Samantha looked innocent, “I don’t even know what I did. How do I admit it?”
Jack’s handsome face was cold under the light, “I don’t expect you to admit it. I just want to remind you that if something like this happens again, I will throw you out of the Yancey manor!”
That sounded serious.
Samantha held the glass tightly, “Jack, there must be evidence before we make a conclusion. I know you don’t like me, what did I do to make you so angry?”
