"Don't cry. Have you shown Nicholas the medical report? Don't worry, I'll be there as soon as possible." Damon sounded panicky. "What's wrong?" Celeste was still teary-eyed. After he put his phone away, she asked quietly. "Uncle John was diagnosed with late-stage kidney cancer today." Perhaps due to the lighting of the cafe, Celeste thought that Damon's eyes looked a little red. "I'll send you back home before heading to the hospital." "I'll go back home by myself." She stood up and grabbed the few big bags of books by Damon's foot. The Sullivan family was important to Damon. He was probably upset after hearing such news. Now that she thought about it, this was probably related to the reason why Damon came back late last night. Damon was in low spirits. He only nodded and said nothing. Celeste reached out to hug Damon. "Just go, darling. Drive slower when you head back home at night." Celeste was a dispassionate person because of her family background. Her life revo

Damon couldn't possibly lie to John by telling him that he'd recover for sure. Besides, John wouldn't have believed it either. All Damon could do was find the best doctors possible and try to save him. Speaking of the friendship between John and the Bishop family, they became acquainted with each other when Damon's father, Brian Bishop was still alive 20 years ago. John and Brian were good friends from school. They even worked together for many years. Brian then died of sickness, leaving Serena to take care of Damon alone. The Sullivan family helped them out plenty of times. When Damon was younger, he had no father. Apart from his uncle, John was the only one who could attend school events in the place of Damon's father. That was why Leah and Damon were very close growing up together. If it wasn't for the fact that his grandfather had set an engagement for him and the York family's daughter, everyone thought that he'd certainly marry Leah. "I know my health the best. I'll o

"I've already eaten." The moment Damon reached home, Edna quickly served him the pumpkin soup that was simmered in a casserole. She even told him specifically that it was Celeste who insisted Edna prepare this for him. His troubled mind was then eased. "You even told Edna to make supper for me. What a considerate wife." Seeing her wake up, Damon rubbed the nape of her neck. He turned her around to face him. "How's Mr. Sullivan?" Celeste was embarrassed to hear him praise her. So she changed the topic. Damon then told her about John's medical condition. Celeste became quiet for a long while after hearing that. She suddenly said, "You should stay by his side more frequently then. And … you should ask Leah if there's anything she needs." Celeste lost her mother at the age of 21, so she understood how much pain Leah could be in. "Why are you suddenly being so understanding?" Damon lifted Celeste's chin to look into her eyes. "Would you not see her if I told you not to?"

Ever since John was diagnosed with late-stage cancer, Leah could not focus at work. It was only reasonable for her to resign. On a Monday morning, Celeste left the pantry holding a cup of coffee. She bumped into Leah, who was carrying a paper box and about to wait for the lift. In the few days she had not seen her, Leah seemed more languish than usual. When she saw Celeste, she couldn't bring herself to say anything mean to her. Celeste wasn't happy to see her miserable all of a sudden either. "This isn't over yet." When they brushed past each other, Leah suddenly said with a hoarse and low voice. "You're wrong, Ms. Sullivan. I have never wished for bad things to happen to you." Celeste was being truthful. Her mother's resentment was so great that she had to place all her focus on attacking the York family. She had never bothered herself with Leah. Leah let out a snicker. She looked as if she was going to say something. But she fell silent when she saw a colleague walk past

"Thank you." Celeste suppressed her discomfort and answered him. She pulled her sketchbook out. "You're looking for an emerald necklace, right? Have you picked out the material that you want?" This was an order costing over 100 million dollars, which meant that hers and the saleslady's commission would go up to 200 thousand dollars. If all she had to do was watch him and Shannon be all lovey-dovey to land the deal, it would be dumb of her to not take it. Celeste did not understand how Shannon would be proud of sleeping with an old man, even showing it off. Celeste made fun of her in her head, but there was no expression on her face. "We're in no hurry, Ms. York. I'll be sure to hire you to do the design for me. But I have something urgent to deal with soon. Let's sign the agreement first and I'll pay the deposit. We can meet up at another spot tonight to talk about the design." Jonah told the saleslady to show him the agreement. He then pulled out a pen and signed it. He even

It was 3:00 pm when Celeste and the saleslady met up with Jonah. When Celeste returned to the company, it was almost time to get off from work. "Good job, Celeste." Sylvie came over and passed a glass of water to her. She gave Celeste a thumbs up. Celeste smiled helplessly. "All that glitters is not gold." "What?" Saying "good job" was the limit of Sylvie's vocabulary. She couldn't understand what Celeste said. "It's nothing. I'll do my best," Celeste quickly said in Latish. Celeste waited until their working hours were over before she headed to the 16th floor. She wanted to ask for Damon's opinion. After all, the Bishop Group was a majority shareholder of Prestige. She should inform him about something as big as this. Damon wasn't there. Only Liam was locking the door to the President's office. "Mrs. Bishop, Mr. Bishop went …" Liam was hesitant at the door. "Why don't I send you back home?" "I'm not heading back home. I need to talk to Damon about something." "Mr.

It appeared he and Shannon knew that Damon wouldn't be able to take care of her at this time. That was why they had the guts to do this to her. But how did they find out about John being sick? Celeste's eyes darkened. But it was just for a moment. She then regained her composure. "Did you call me here to have dinner with you because you knew that my husband would be busy?" She tapped open her chatbox with Damon on WhatsApp. She pressed the voice message button to record their conversation. "Although you two are sisters, you're smarter than Shannon. Shannon said that you're good at seducing men, but I think you're quite cold and dispassionate. But do you know what men like the most?" Jonah suddenly leaned close to her. Celeste dodged backward smoothly. "What is it?" "Men love to make cold women beg. That's the feeling of asserting dominance." "Sorry, Mr. Radcliffe. I'm not Shannon and I don't play hard to get." Underneath the table, Celeste released the voice message

Throughout the entire night, Damon was completely drained from accompanying John on his medical checkup. He was busy for a long while. When Celeste called him, John was undergoing an MRI scan while Leah cried outside. He was feeling irritable, so he ended the call in a rush. It was normal for a cancer patient's health condition to deteriorate. That was because cancer cells would spread in patients with late-stage cancer. But Leah was in such a bad mental state that he could only accompany John in her place. Exhausted, he only left the hospital when it was 9:00 pm. He drove home alone. He didn't know if Celeste was already asleep. Damon then remembered that she had called in the afternoon as if she had to tell him about something important. So as he waited for the red light to turn green, he tried to call her up. He only realized something was wrong when he saw the countless notifications on WhatsApp. Why would Celeste be dealing with Jonah? How could that old bastard dare t
