A cold fury radiated from Gonzalez as he marched straight toward Yvonne's room.
Stopping outside her door, he pounded on it forcefully.
A moment later, Yvonne opened the door, dressed in her silk robe. She wore a faint, nonchalant smile. "It's the middle of the night. Do you need something?"
A maid carrying a tray of bird's nest soup down the hall spotted him and immediately shrank back into the shadows, discreetly watching the half-siblings.
Everyone in the house knew they didn't get along, but based on Gonzalez's terrifying posture, it looked like a physical fight was about to break out.
Gonzalez's gaze was lethal. When he spoke, his rough voice was laced with a chilling intent. "Where is my cat?"
Yvonne had obviously anticipated this from the second she saw him. She leaned against the doorframe, her smile never wavering. "A friend of mine took a liking to him, so I gave him away."
"He is my cat," Gonzalez growled. "What gives you the right to give him away?"
Yvonne chuckled mildly. "It's just a cat. Do I not have a say in my own house? Besides, I did it for your own good. You just took over the company; your mind should be fully focused on your career. Keeping a pet is too much of a distraction."
The murderous glint in Gonzalez's eyes felt like blades flaying her skin. "I don't care who you gave Circe to. You're going to call her right now and have him brought back safely."
Yvonne rolled her eyes slightly, maintaining her unbothered facade. "That might be impossible. My friend had an eight o'clock flight to BL for an on-location shoot. She probably took him with her."
The air around Gonzalez plummeted to freezing. He stared her down. "I will say this one last time. Get Circe back here immediately."
"I'm telling you, it's impossible—Ah!"
Before she could finish, his hand shot out and clamped down on her throat. Instinctively, she clawed at his grip. "Let... let go... of me!"
The muscles in Gonzalez's arm bunched tightly as his fingers slowly constricted. "We had an understanding to stay out of each other's way, Yvonne. You touch what's mine, and I will kill you."

Dear author Lucy, may we please have updates. Thank you....
There's a song currently playing via YouTube and TikToc by LowDii "Touch Me Softly" that makes me think of Norah and Xavier (Gonzalez). Please, I'm looking forward to updates. Thank you for your writing....
May we please have updates. Thank you....
As the plot thicken. Adrian is done for and he can't try to control Norah, so he'd probably tattle to Janice who's gone for two weeks. Thank you soooo much for the updates....
These updates were too funny. Thank you so much for the updates....
I forgot to add Amy to the group of pregnant women,since she was the first. Emily and Sylvia better be careful since pregnancy is in the air....
Wow! This is great, both Estelle and Magdalen are pregnant at the same time and I hope that Xavier is Norah neighbor. Thank you for the updates....
