Chapter 229: Chapter 202: Who touched her! (4 more updates)

Seeing that neither of them spoke, Oliver Gordon frowned slightly and said, "Lych City has been a bit chaotic recently, so it’s better not to go."

"Oliver Gordon, where we’re going has nothing to do with you."

"I know you’re going there to chase celebrities, Chloe Stephens doesn’t have such a habit, you’re just dragging her down." Oliver Gordon looked at Ava Sanders, his expression seemed to suggest that Ava was leading Chloe astray.

Ava found it amusing.

Oliver Gordon thought too highly of himself.

Who did he think he was to Chloe that he had the right to interfere with her?

He used to avoid her, but now that Chloe has returned to the Stephens family, does he want to use her status to help himself?

Ava used to think that Oliver Gordon was quite nice, but now she found him somewhat disgusting.

"Oliver Gordon, are you out of your mind?"

"I’m just reminding you not to lead her astray."

"How ridiculous," Ava sneered, "Why do you get to manage Chloe’s affairs? Who are you to her?"

"I’m doing it for her sake."

"Don’t bother with him," Chloe said indifferently, "He’s brain-damaged."

"Pfft!" Ava was about to argue with Oliver Gordon, but hearing Chloe’s words, her mood instantly improved.

Oliver Gordon’s face turned pale in an instant and he looked at Chloe abruptly.

She actually said that his brain was damaged.

How could she say such a thing to him?

Perhaps affected by the control worm from before, Oliver Gordon’s situation had been a bit pessimistic, and he would often do some inexplicable things.

Although no one controlled him anymore, there was a kind of paranoia in his subconscious mind.

Just after noon, when Adam had left, Yvette Foster was called away alone.

This was her first time meeting Pierce Stephens alone, and she couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.

"There’s no one else here, so now you can tell me who did the change to your body. As long as you tell me, I’ll help Adam deal with it. You don’t want to get him involved, do you? So, just tell me," said Pierce Stephens, waiting for Yvette’s answer.

Yvette pursed her lips and said, "Master Stephens, I really don’t know. I acted impulsively at that time, and I didn’t expect that it would..."

"You’re lying," Pierce Stephens said flatly, causing Yvette to subconsciously stop talking.

The pressure from Pierce Stephens was overwhelming, and even her breathing felt difficult.

Yvette couldn’t possibly admit that it was her daughter who had given her the medicine, as it would harm Chloe.

So, when Pierce Stephens brought up Adam, she didn’t buy it.

Pierce Stephens stared at her, could it really be just a coincidence?

"Master," Elliot Xenos walked in. "Gideon Stephens asks to see you."

"Let him in."

Pierce didn’t ask Yvette to leave, and she didn’t dare to leave either.

Gideon entered the room and hesitated when he saw Yvette, but he still said, "Master, Rowan has recently done very well in the project he took over, but today Adam suddenly took the project away, not allowing Rowan to take charge of it. Master, Rowan is one of the heirs to the family. It’s clear that Adam is settling personal scores."

After Rowan told Gideon about the matter, he eagerly wanted to run over to Pierce Stephens to tell his side of the story.

He wanted to see how Pierce Stephens would deal with this matter.

"It’s Adam’s right to withdraw the project, and he probably has his own considerations. Over the years, you’ve all seen that all good resources have been given to Rowan alone to fight for." Pierce Stephens narrowed his eyes slightly. "If you’re not reassured, you can train him yourself. There are other children in the family, too. One child lost his parents and was originally the most suitable candidate. It was only after your previous strong fighting that such an opportunity was created."

Gideon’s mouth twitched.

So, was he openly defending Adam now?

Gideon clenched his teeth and said, "I know Adam must have his own ideas, but..."

"If you have any objections, you can consult with your father more and let him come to talk to me," Pierce Stephens didn’t want to say any more to Gideon.

Gideon tightly clenched his fists and said, "Yes."

Pierce Stephens glanced at Yvette, "You go out too."

Yvette felt as if she had been pardoned.

Once outside, Gideon looked around and suddenly attacked.

Just behind Yvette, he raised his hand to strike.

Although Yvette had a genuine ancient martial arts talent, she was no match for Gideon. Even if she could react, she was still hit and saw stars.

She was thrown into a flowerbed on the spot.

People around Gideon were a bit stunned.

"Take down the surveillance from around here," Gideon said with an angry face, walking towards Yvette.

"Bang!"

Gideon pulled Yvette out and hit her.

He was utterly merciless.

Yvette tried to fight back, but as a beginner, she was just about capable of suppressing the sharp anger of youngsters like Jayden Stephens. However, with Gideon, things were entirely different.

She was completely powerless to fight back.

After a beating, Gideon sneered at the now disheveled Yvette, "Do you know what Adam and Rowan said today? He said that he would take away Rowan’s stepson status, that is to say, he would no longer be the first in line to inherit. So, who were we acting as grandsons for in those years? Why should it be up to him, Adam? I know that the last time something happened to Kenneth, it was him who did it behind my back."

He was referring to the conflict between him and Kenneth, in which he had been injured and lost half of his resources, making them suffer a huge loss.

He didn’t tell Joe Stephens about it, and instead, invested all his money into the project. Yet today, when he went to the company, he saw that his losses had not been made up, and Kenneth had also been implicated and caused a scene with him.

Finally, when he received Rowan’s message, Gideon’s anger was ignited.

"He has no right..." Yvette gasped, feeling pain all over her body, as if she was about to asthmatic.

Gideon sneered coldly, "Out of all the heirs, only Rowan stands out the most. Are you saying he has no right? If he has no right, does your useless daughter have any?"

"Do you think... he reached the top by his own true ability? It’s just that they know that no matter how hard they fight, in the end... they would still be unable to compare with him, and they’re afraid that when he becomes the real heir, he will take revenge... so they just give in.

Yvette said with a mocking tone.

It was because Adam was Pierce Stephens’ son, and Rowan was Adam’s stepson, that this kind of operation was understood by everyone.

The selection was one thing, but the first-in-line heir had actually been decided long ago.

It was Rowan!

Gideon furrowed his eyebrows, and although he didn’t believe the words, hearing them from Yvette’s mouth made him extremely angry.

"You’re asking for death!"

Stephens Group.

Rowan got into the car with an aura of anger.

Adam said that he would change his field of expertise, but Rowan did not believe him.

Adam just wanted to officially get rid of him and then revoke his stepson’s title.

He wanted to change his son, but it depended on whether he would give him the opportunity!

Rowan narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath, and sat upright in the car interior.

Adam received a call from home, and his face instantly changed!

Without regard for the meeting with other members of the Stephens Family, he hurriedly entered the garage. The driver was rejected when he tried to send Adam somewhere.

Rowan wanted to call Kelly Stephens, but when he saw Adam driving past him at high speed, he hesitated.

Where was Adam going in such a hurry?

Rowan signaled the driver to follow.

Adam raced back to the Stephens’ home and rushed into the therapy room like the wind. Seeing Yvette’s pale face as she lay on the bed, Adam’s eyes instantly turned blood-red.

"Who, who touched her!"

He roared like an enraged lion, furious!
