Damon was too strong. Celeste's attempt to break free from him was too feeble in Damon's eyes. He held her tight in his arms as he savored her tongue and sucked her lips. He was just too anxious and frustrated. He could only claim Celeste as his woman by doing this. But it wasn't easy to control Celeste. Since she wasn't as strong as him, she bit his tongue hard. The scent of blood spread in their mouths. But Damon merely grunted. He still wouldn't let go of her. The two gasped for air as they kissed for a long while. It lasted so long that Celeste thought she could no longer breathe.When Damon finally released her, she used all her might to slap him. "How dare you bully me!" She said as tears fell down her cheeks. She dashed upstairs without turning back once. Of course, Damon was not allowed to enter the master bedroom that night. He lay down on the bed in the second bedroom. He tossed and turned. He thought about her teary eyes and what she said. Although his feeli
"What a coincidence. Now that he has moved to the villa next to ours, I might just take your advice." Celeste clearly wanted to upset him. As expected, Damon's face hardened. "I'm full." She ate a little before getting up. She was about to leave. "We're leaving together." Damon naturally had no appetite to eat anymore. He stood up and grabbed her hand. Celeste didn't reject him this time. She got into Damon's car. But she never once looked sideways and ignored him all the way. Next to her, Damon was hesitant to speak. But he ultimately said nothing. Celeste finally felt better after angering Damon so many times in a single morning. When she arrived at the entrance, the girl who stood up for her yesterday welcomed her. "Celeste, Mr. Bishop is so manly! He's showing off his love for his wife!" Celeste thought she was talking about how Damon fired Cheryl yesterday. She merely gave the girl a friendly smile without a word. "That's right! The way he resolved the matter just
Leah was having a worse time than Celeste. Because of the alcohol poisoning, she had to be hospitalized for a week. She was much more bloated now after getting an IV drip. "This is the good idea you came up with?" She hated herself for believing Shannon's stupid idea. She thought that she'd be able to get back together with Damon with the media exposure and the netizens' support. But not only did she make things worse by getting hospitalized, Damon even publicly revealed what happened to her on Twitter. She was now known for having alcoholism issues and being suicidal. The perfect image that she had built for herself was all ruined. "You didn't fail this time entirely. Damon and Celeste's relationship must've gotten worse because of this matter. Be more confident in yourself. Damon still has feelings for you. He's just being egged on by Celeste," Shannon said on the phone. "Besides, Camden's arm was removed because of Celeste. Do you think he'd forget about that? That slu
Since Leah wasn't at the company, Celeste had been having a peaceful working life. Without anyone disrupting her, she was able to work with high efficiency and motivation. She had the lowest qualification and experience amongst everyone working in the Prestige Design Center. However, she was able to generate good ideas and design excellent drafts. She was now recognized as the best intern here. She had hopes of being retained at the company as a permanent employee. Of course, the happiest news she heard was that the York family had been blacklisted by the Primax Group. Primax Group was the benchmark of the construction industry in the country. Being blacklisted by them meant that it'd be extremely difficult to gain other clients's trust in them. Ever since the York family received investments from Damon, things had gotten a little better. But now they were back to zero. Because of this matter, Celeste had been smiling all day every day. Damon didn't know what she was thin
"This morning, someone sent Caleb a picture of a car accident and said that I was dead." After a while, Celeste said with a throaty voice. She saw the picture. The victim's face was blurred, but she was wearing the same white hoodie that Celeste owned. Even their body type and hair looked alike. Because of that, Caleb thought it was real. He got too emotional and passed out. When she told him all of that, Celeste was curling up in Damon's brown coat. Her eyes and nose were slightly red. Her lashes were trembling a little, and her face was ashen. Without a word, Damon sat next to her and placed her head on his chest. Normally, Celeste would get up from a nightmare and listen to his steady heartbeat. She'd then be able to fall asleep faster. Damon thought that she might feel better by doing this. As expected, Celeste went closer to where his heart was. She curled up in his arms like a little injured animal that was sick and weak. It would make anyone's heart soften for her.
"Damon, you weren't like this before. You always treated me the best. I never thought that you'd put me under the spotlight that way just because of another woman. I didn't do anything wrong, I just love you." Because of her illness, Leah had become thinner. She cried and was about to hug Damon. Damon avoided her. Recalling all the memories he had with Leah in the past, he felt a little guilty. Nobody knew if Caleb's life could be saved now, so Celeste was in no mood to watch Leah's performance. Leah nearly caused her to drown and die, yet she was saying that she did nothing wrong here. "Leah Sullivan, loud noises are prohibited in the hospital. Go out if you want to cry." Celeste jutted her chin at the exit. Her tone was impatient. "Damon, did you hear that!" Leah cried even harder. "Celeste, did you have to say it that way?" Damon frowned. He disrespected the Sullivan family just now for Celeste's sake. But now, she was still being so unforgiving. She didn't even care about
Caleb was in a coma for two days. He finally regained his consciousness on the third day. Celeste finally eased up when he was discharged from the ICU. The surgeon said that they managed to save him out of pure luck. But if this happened again, it would badly affect Caleb's new heart. He might even … Celeste didn't dare to think further. Celeste hired someone to investigate the phone number where its owner sent that picture to Caleb. It was from overseas. She suspected that someone sent this to a third party and told them to text this to Caleb. Of course, she knew that this must have had something to do with the York family even if she didn't conduct an investigation. There was no point in taking revenge on them now. The most important thing was to take good care of Caleb and defeat the York family as soon as possible. "Megan, please help me keep an eye on the York family's actions." Megan came to visit Celeste that day. Celeste asked for Megan's help as she saw Megan out.
That very day, Camden was badly beaten up by Damon's men before getting dumped in front of the York residence. Damon's message was clear. This time, he didn't investigate the York family. But it didn't mean that he had no problems at all. Leaving Camden at their doorstep served as a warning to them. Henry and Hannah were about to head outside to do something when they spotted Camden. The sight of him tied up and covered in bruises sent shivers down their spines. "Mr. Bradley, why are you here?" Henry hurriedly untied Camden and helped him to walk into the house. "Why am I here? This is all your daughter's fault!" Camden couldn't be bothered by the fact that he was dirty as he sprawled across the couch in the York residence. He said angrily, "Damon didn't kill me this time, but that doesn't mean I'd be able to survive next time!" It was clearly Shannon's idea to hire him and send a fake message to Caleb saying that Celeste was dead. Lying on the couch, Camden took his anger
