Ms. York's Second Proposal Chapter 136
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

He should've let her talk to him. If he did, she wouldn't have ended up in such a dangerous situation. Celeste merely leaned against the headboard. She tried to recall what happened before she blacked out. She thought about how it started and ended. She could only remember how Winston appeared at the most crucial moment. He saved her from that demon. On the other hand, Damon was accompanying John with Leah! "Haha, thanks for showing up despite being so busy. Don't worry, I won't die. I don't need your care as much as a cancer patient does. You should go." Celeste smiled coldly. She said this while waving Damon away. "Celeste, I made a mistake and left you in danger. But don't drag anyone irrelevant into this." Damon knew that she was still angry. Seeing how weak she was, he explained to her patiently. He thought that she should get a checkup done during the daytime so that there wouldn't be any negative complications. As for Jonah Radcliffe … Viciousness flashed across Damo

Jonah arrived at where he and Shannon were staying together. "Why are you back so early?" It was already midnight when Shannon heard the door slam open. When she went out to welcome him, she saw how swollen Jonah's face was from where he was hit. She was terrified. Jonah slapped Shannon with all his might. Shannon fell onto the ground. She let out a shriek in pain. "Shannon York, how dare you scheme against me!" The usual fake smile was no longer there on Jonah's face. He finally showed his true colors. "I didn't! Let me explain!" Seeing the look on Jonah's face, he certainly didn't get to do what he wanted. Covering her face which was hot from being slapped, Shannon claimed that she was innocent. After spending some time lying on the ground, she struggled to get up. "That's not true at all!" "Not true? You told me that Damon doesn't care for Celeste at all. That's bullshit!" Jonah's eyes were all bruised from being punched so badly. He had been publicly embarrassed.
Ms. York's Second Proposal Chapter 143
The moment Celeste woke up, she called Winston to thank him. Winston had just moved to Taverdale to expand his business not long ago. Yet, he beat up Jonah for her sake. This might affect him negatively in the future. She felt bad for this. But Winston was unbothered. He even joked in their call, "If you're so grateful, remember to spare some time and buy me a meal next time." "Of course I will!" Celeste was much more relieved because of his relaxed attitude. Then, she washed up and went to see Lawrence. She didn't know Damon didn't head to the company either. He had gone out of his way to bring the important files back home to work on them. Damon was looking at the bidding documents for a project in the study when he heard noises from the bedroom. Then, he heard someone walking down the stairs. "Edna, I'll be eating outside for lunch. You don't have to prepare food for me." Celeste quickly changed in the walk-in wardrobe. She then came out and spoke to Edna, who was busy
