CHAPTER 72 – Out of My Life
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Daniel motioned for Celine to go inside the house first while he finished his call with Aaron.
“I had nothing to do with it” he said confidently.
“Aaron, if I would kill someone, why would I dump it in a property that would be traced back to me?”
“I don’t remember being stupid” he let out a hearty laugh to ease the tension.
“He was identified as Clint Solomon’s bodyguard” Aaron said.
“I had nothing to do with it” he repeated flatly.
“Relax, Aaron. It’s a marina, it’s prone to accidents. Let the officers do their jobs and we will help them with their investigation” he said casually then ended their call.
When he entered the house, he heard Celine’s raised voice.
“I’ve done what you asked, what else do you want from me?” Celine was clearly irritated.
His eyebrows immediately furrowed.
He could not

When they reached their home, Celine was greeted by a pleasant surprise.“Lindaaaa!!!!” she bolted towards the pregnant lady waiting inside their house.“I miss you so much”“How are you?”“Where have you been?”“Why are you so fat?”Celine’s excited voice and questions brought smile to Linda’s face except for the last one.The last one was not very pleasing to the ears.“I’m okay, doll. Bored, but I’m okay” Linda said but she immediately noticed the bruising in her cheek.She wanted to scold Daniel but the man was gone without even saying hi.What a jerk.When Daniel came back, he was carrying an ice pack and a medicine box.“What happened?” Linda asked.“Minerva happened” Daniel replied flatly while gently pressing the ice pack.Linda felt her body shivered in a murd

“Don’t ask Tiff to maintain your account. I will maintain it for you” Aaron said.“I’m gonna have to call you back egghead” she ended her call with Aaron but she just kept staring at her laptop.Should she accept it or not.She immediately pressed the reject button.But her heart was still racing.She did not expect FlowerMan to request a videocall.You’re not doing anything wrong, she tried to convince herself.She took a deep breath then send him a message.‘I don’t accept videocalls. What’s up?’She was still waiting for a reply when Daniel came back.When the door opened, she got startled and immediately closed her laptop.Daniel squinted his eyes and focused on her blushing cheeks.“Are you watching porn?” he asked casually.“Porn, what???” why in the world would she watch porn?“Hey, yo

She wrapped the blanket around her and tried to sniff Daniel’s scent.Daniel must have felt the same when she packed her bag the last time.It feels awful, why didn’t he say something then?How could he not hold a grudge against her?She let the tears fall again, she doesn’t care anymore if his blanket gets wet with her tears.Funny, she thought, she has cried more in the last few months of being with Daniel than she cried in her whole lifetime.She thought she’s detached and unemotional but she’s wrong.She’s full of emotions exclusively reserved for the right people.When she realized she’s been crying for an hour, she has accepted maybe Daniel may not go back anymore.She brought the pillow and the blanket to their room and decided to take a dip in the pool.At least she could relax in the water.She has just finished a lap when she felt her eyes sting.Sh

“Hello, Tiff. Remember the pool guy? The shirtless guy in the photo, he’s a criminal” Celine immediately shared the information to Tiff when they reached the house.Daniel went straight to the study room to continue his work.She thought it’s imperative that she share the information with Tiff in case she decided to pick a random guy to replace Aaron, she could exclude the pool guy from the selection.“I don’t remember anymore” Tiff said.“Aaron deleted the photo, he said it’s not good for the publicity” she added casually.Celine understood their reason, at least she has done her part.She was about to end their call when Tiff got curious.“How’s the boss?”“Okay, I guess” Celine doesn’t think something is wrong with Daniel.Based on his reaction this morning, he’s not as affected as she thought he would be.&ldq

Both Oscar and Celine were surprised at his revelation.Does it mean he knew all along who was attacking them?“What happened between the two of you?” Daniel asked casually.He remembered the name Clarence was mentioned by Brent Hardwood the first time they met.He didn’t pay much attention since he focused on Brent.Celine looked between Oscar and Daniel then decided to tell what happened.Clarence Finn was their manager at the bank and he has openly declared his love for Celine.Everyone thinks he was just being playful and Celine couldn’t care less.It was pretty harmless initially, then he started calling her ‘my love’ even introducing her as his love to his subordinates.She still ignored it as it didn’t really affect her work and her performance.Until one day, they attended a work event together and Clarence Finn tried to harass her.She filed for resignation

Daniel slowly released her mouth and put down the phone.“Please stop calling me that. Or I may have to call Mrs. Finn” now it was Clarence’s turn to be silent.That was unexpected.After his one-way flirting, he would suddenly stop at the mention of his wife.“Bitter gourd” Clarence suddenly say after a moment of silence.“What was that?”“I remember you said it was your favourite. We’ll have bitter gourd tomorrow”“Have a good night, my love” Clarence said then ended their call.She felt goosebumps all over her body.“Someone’s forcing him to do this” Celine looked at Daniel.Daniel raised his eyebrow in confusion.“Bitter gourd” she said.“There’s one time we’re having team lunch and he ordered bitter gourd”“I told the team I hate it and the only way to

Celine just smiled.What happened to turning his life around?People are only loyal to their own benefits.When your back is against the wall, it’s normal to turn to your instinct for survival.She understands that very well.Isn’t it insulting when someone tries to play you thinking you don’t know anything but in fact you know everything?Sometimes it’s fun to watch people scramble for words trying to hide their real intention.But she could see through all the lies.If she was able to interpret Minerva’s subtle change of tone, or slight pupil dilation or twitch of her lips, reading Clarence’s hypocrisy is very basic for her.“So, is someone going to pick me up or we will go to the parking lot where my captor is waiting for us?” she asked casually.“I don’t have a choice, I’m sorry”“If you think you can get her back, you’r

“Done?” he casually asked. She nodded her head then went inside the car. She has a lot to ask but she’s scared to find out the truth. Knowing Daniel, he wouldn’t sugar-coat anything. “I don’t remember you smoke” she said casually while lowering her window. “I do, sometimes” “You know I was hoping when I wake up, I would be in our room and you would be there” she tried not to sound reproachful but her voice cracked in the end. “I was so scared, Daniel. You asked me to trust you and I did. But you weren’t there” she let her built-up emotions out. Daniel stopped the car on the side of the road and tried to comfort her. She must be very traumatized with what happened. But he remembered the scenes differently. As soon as Clarence sent the details of their meet-up, the restaurant was secured and the people inside were hired men. When she passed out, it was Daniel who carried her in the car and

The wedding was finished in an instant followed by a sumptuous dinner. The guests all stayed for the weekend at the resort and soon it was time for the guests to leave.“Enjoy your honeymoon. But you’ll have to decide how the company will move forward given that Minerva’s position will be vacant” Linda reminded both Celine and Daniel.The mother superior could not be any happier for the two of them now. Now she only wanted for Celine to have babies so she can guide her through motherhood.“Still work, Linda?” Daniel teased.“Actually, no. I want her to enjoy her motherhood so she has to sign the formalities as soon as possible” Linda objected.“Pbbft. Motherhood will only come once she’s ready. Maybe after two years if we’re lucky” Daniel defended his wife.Linda gave Celine a knowing look and she saw Celine shrink back. Clearly, she hasn’t told Daniel about it.

The old man was really grumpy.And why wouldn’t he?Celine said that the ceremony will only involve a few guests. And it would be a simple celebration. However, as soon as she started setting up her decorations, he knew it wasn’t as simple as she claimed it to be.Since he could not convince them to stop, he left the farm as soon as they started putting up the tent and only came back when he received the message that the farm is back to its previous order.He could already see their eco-friendly rating dropping from the charts. He still needed to submit reports to explain that the event did not pollute the environment.So, he is really grumpy right now. He has a lot of work to do.If the spoiled owner wanted to discuss business he needed to calm down for a day before he would be willing to negotiate.To be honest, he’s beginning to have second thoughts on selling the property to Celine.

All that matters to him now is that Celine agreed to be his wife for real. The rest will follow later on.“Let’s have dinner now. Celine is hungry” Daniel said to break the deathly glares directed at him.The rest of the group snapped out of their own worlds when they heard Celine was hungry.Sylvia immediately went to the kitchen to check on the food while Aunt Marge prepared the dining table.Celine wanted to help but everyone wanted her to rest.She thought about what happened in the afternoon and they must have felt pity for her.Her heart warms up at the special treatment she’s receiving.“Uhhmm.

No matter what they wanted to say, it’s all useless now.They were at this stand still when the Blooms arrived.“Ah, Daniel you came. Celine would be relieved” Dr. Bloom was filled with vigour.He never expected the wedding atmosphere to lift Grandma Bloom’s spirits.They just came from the make-shift tent where she inspected the final decorations and her eyes were dreamy.“Let’s get married again tomorrow, dear” she joked as she gave instructions to the wedding planning team.“Grandma” Daniel greeted.Grandma Bloom acknowledged his presence but turned her attention to the la

Their reactions were not like as she has expected.“What if Daniel doesn’t want to get married?” Aunt Marge suddenly asked.She was worried that Daniel would have to give in to Celine again.For the Stevensons, they place a high value to marriage and family. Since their businesses could easily attract those unscrupulous characters, they needed the kind of security that only blood and family could provide.“Of course, Daniel will marry Celine. There’s no way that Daniel will object” Sylvia defended Celine from the Stevensons.“I understand all your concern. Of course, Daniel will have to agree this time. Anyway, I prepared the ceremony thinking that Daniel has really found a wife. It turns out, it’s only a ruse to throw off the Solomons.” Celine explained.“Daniel has already said that he will only get married because of love. I guess later I will know if he sees me as his potential

If it were Celine, she would have definitely dug herself out of that room. But then again, she’s Britney Smith, only she can do what she does and only she can accept this kind of embarrassment.“Britney, just cross Daniel’s name on your list. He’s not used to dealing with emotions so you will really lose out. He’s also not romantic so you will be really bored. Aren’t you embarrassed if you have to set an appointment with me if you want to have intimate nights with him? Even if you managed to marry him, he will not acknowledge your marriage in public so no one will really know that he’s your husband.

She felt an inexplicable excitement hearing his deep and powerful voice. But her excitement was quelled when she heard Daniel speak.“I thought I told you to call my secretary for appointment?” Daniel asked without any emotion.“Well, I cannot reach Celine and your office suddenly went into company holiday. So, I thought I can call you again since you’re divorced now” Britney said sheepishly.Daniel heaved a deep breath to calm the rage he felt before replying again.“Ms. Smith, news of my divorce may have circulated but it doesn’t mean anyone can just call me for dates. I’m not that desperate.” he replied in a stern voice.“That’s not what I meant, Daniel. I just got back to the country and I have a project proposal. Knowing your work ethics, you wouldn’t let a good opportunity pass. I mentioned your divorce because I think your ex-wife will not be jealous anymore if we went f
