Chapter 66
Jared’s ugliest emotions rose to the surface in the face of Luther’s provocation.
Luther, who held status and power comparable to his, posed a far greater threat to Jared than a mere blind date like Harold. Anthony and Shane exchanged apprehensive glances amid the standoff. The worst–case scenario had become a reality. “Now that we all know Yvonne is single, you’re the one who has no right to keep her hidden away, Mr. Ford,” said Luther, making no effort to hide his interest in Yvonne.
Knowing full well that Jaredidn’t want to let Yvonne go only fueled his amusement and heightened his desire to win. Anthony’s expression was solemn. Lather had made a very dangerous statement.
Jared stood up and cursed drunkenly at Luther, shouting, “Luther land! Even If I really did break up with Yvonne, you’d have to get in line!”
Luther simply arched an eyebrow at him, looking fascinating as her. Although everyone thinks that you broke up because she wasn’t worthy of you, I can tell that she was the one

Luther’s words hit a little too close to home, causing Jared to throw his wine glass at him in rage. “Shut up!”
ine and shards of glass flew everywhere, making the customers in the vidnity cast hesitant glances at them.
Anthony hurriedly moved to stop Jared. “Calm down, Jared! You’re drunk!” he yelled with a frown before turning to address Luther and Shane. “Please don’t be offended, Mr. Feland. Also, it’s probably better if the two of you leave first, Shane.”
That snapped Shane back to his senses, and he stepped in to create some distance between Luther and Jared. “You should change your clothes first, Mr. Feland. Then, let’s go somewhere else for a drink.”
“Well, I think that Mr. Ford is very sober right now,” said Luther. “You know as well as I do that you were the one who couldn’t convince her to stay. She’s the one who chose to leave you.”
Every word of ridicule out of Luther’s mouth was like an arrow stabbing directly into Jared’s heart. It made Jared so angry that he wanted to rush over and punch Luther.
However, Anthony continued to stand firmly in his way.
Luther suddenly threw the contents of his wine glass at Jared and cursed him out in return. “You can’t beat me, Ford, regardless of whether it’s about women or bidding for Hover Group’s project Yvonne is mine, and the Hover Group project is also mine! At that point, both Jared’s and Luther’s expensive suits were stained with wine, and they looked somewhat miserable. Shane, standing between them, asked peevishly, “Have the two of you forgotten who you are? Do you think it’s worth fighting over a woman in a situation like this?”
He couldn’t understand Jared and Luther. In his eyes, women were like clothes–items that should be thrown out once they became boring, dirty, or no longer fit.
Yet these two–the presidents of Ford Corporation and Feland Group of all people, were losing it to this extent over Yvonne.
Luther, for his part, didn’t want to stoop to the drunk Jared’s level
“How about we make a bet?” he asked while taking off his stained suit jacket. “Let’s bet on whether you’ll be able to convince her to return to your side before I successfully court her and make her my secretary.”
“Scram!” barked Jared. “You don’t get to bet on her!”
Although Luther left, Jared continued to rage and smash everything on the table.
“Calm down, Jared. You’re going to get hurt at this rate,” said Anthony, forcibly dragging him to the sink to douse him with cold

He suddenly reached for Anthony’s phone and scrolled through his contacts until he found Yvonne’s number.
After a moment, the call connected, and Yvonne’s voice rang out though the receiver. “Hello?”
Jared instantly became consumed by fury. He was angry that she was still throwing a tantrum, but he was even angrier at the Tact that he actually missed her
It was as if he was rolling over and allowing her to manipulate him like a miserable dog!
