“You…” Willow Stone could hardly breathe with the man strangling her neck. She felt as though she was about to die.?‘Why is he doing this to me? I don’t think I did anything to offend him!’

Finally, Finn Taylor let go of her.

Willow Stone gasped, and her face was flushed. Only after several minutes did she finally catch her breath. “A-are you crazy, Finn Taylor?”

The man glared at her before asking, “Did you kidnap someone?”

“Kidnap someone? Did Yvette get kidnapped?”

Seeing Finn Taylor so worked up, her first thought was that her best friend had been kidnapped and that he thought that she was the culprit.

But she wasn’t!

“Look in my eyes and tell me if you’ve kidnapped anyone.”

Willow Stone was confused.?‘Is it not Yvette Larson? Who else would get Finn Taylor so worked up?’?

“It’s not me. I didn’t kidnap anyone.’

From her gaze, Finn Taylor was certain that she wasn’t the culprit. “I guess it really isn’t you.”

Phew!?

The woman let out a great sigh of relief. “You nearly killed me earlier. Hurry up and tell me who you care so much about.”

“Wendy Jensen.”

“Who’s Wendy Jensen?” Very obviously, Willow Stone didn’t recognize the name.

“Go search it up yourself.” With that, Finn Taylor turned to leave.

Willow Stone was still in a daze.?‘Wendy Jensen must be a woman. I never thought that there would be another woman that Finn Taylor cared so much about apart from Yvette.’

Once the man left, she quickly made a call to her subordinates, instructing them to find out who Wendy Jensen was.

This would definitely keep her up if she didn’t get an answer today.

Very quickly, she got her answer.

When Willow Stone heard that the woman was Finn Taylor’s mother, a bitter smile spread across her face.?‘I… was jealous of my mother-in-law? I thought there were new beauties around Finn.’?

But reality struck her—Wendy Jensen had been kidnapped! 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜ｍ

‘Who could’ve done so?’?Unlike Finn Taylor, Willow Stone had only one person in mind—Melanie Taylor.?‘Wendy Jensen was kidnapped at such a critical moment. Melanie Taylor has to be involved in this.’

…

The next day, Yvette Larson heard her mother yelling at the top of her lungs the moment she woke up.

“What?”

Linda James rushed up to her daughter’s side. “Take a look at the company’s financial report. The company is going under!”

Yvette Larson took the report from her mother and glanced at it. “Yes, I guess the company is going to lose all its assets by next week at this rate.”

“Next week? Do you mean that we’re going bankrupt next week?” Linda James couldn’t believe it.?‘I’m the chairman of the Larson Corporation! It feels good to be on top of everyone else, yet I’m going to lose everything very soon.’?

Yvette Larson had already expected this result. After all, she had come up with this plan with her husband to let the company go bankrupt before selling it to Quince Larson.

But no amount of planning would’ve prepared them for what was to come. Who would’ve expected them to get divorced?

That was why they were faced with such an awkward scenario. If they were to continue with their original plan to let the company go bankrupt, she had no idea what to do since her husband had never told her anything.

But if they were to rebuild the company now, they would’ve wasted all that money.

Things were getting awkward now.

Just as Yvette Larson was contemplating what to do, Linda James slammed a bank card onto the desk.

Francis Larson—who had been sitting by the side—rushed forward as he stared at his wife. “Are you sure you want to tell her about it now?”

“What, didn’t you want to tell her about it? Are you reluctant to do it now?”

Francis Larson had indeed intended on telling his daughter about it, but that was because he was afraid that his wife would waste the money away. But after some observation, he realized that the latter had no intention of doing so.

Besides, he thought of Finn Taylor as his son-in-law. It would be good if the couple could get back together, and this could remain a secret forever.

However, Linda James insisted on telling their daughter about the matter now. What would happen to Yvette then?

“What’s that?”

But it was too late to do anything since Linda James had already taken the card out. There was nothing he could do.

“This is compensation from Finn Taylor. There are five billion dollars in it. Is it enough to save the company?”

‘Five billion dollars!’?Linda James had been dumbfounded when she first heard the number, and so had her husband. Now, Yvette Larson was equally taken aback.

That was an incredible sum of money—it was beyond one’s imagination.

Five billion dollars—that was a few times more than what the Larson Corporation was worth.

She would probably have enough to save a dozen Larson Corporations, but she wasn’t going to use the money to do that.

She picked up the bank card and turned to her mother. “I’ll take control of the company from now on. No matter what happens, don’t interfere.”

Linda James got a little frenzied. “What’s going on? I’m asking if you can use the money to save the company. Yvette, I’m the chairman of the company, not you.”

“Oh, you’re the chairman? Alright then. You can go manage the company. Didn’t Finn give me this sum of money? What does it have to do with you?” 𝑓𝚛𝚎ℯ𝘸𝙚𝘣𝚗𝘰νeƖ.c𝒐𝐦

Linda James had no way of rebutting her daughter, but she was never one to reason things out logically. Since she couldn’t convince her daughter, she tried to snatch the bank card away.

However, Yvette Larson wasn’t going to let her mother have her way since she had already made a decision.

She took a few steps back. “Mom, you better not make a fuss. If the company goes under, you’ll have to rely on the money in this account to live. Otherwise, you can move back to our old house.. After all, your name isn’t on this property deed.”
