Celeste had a weird feeling. That was the man who cornered her in the bathroom stall and did all those things to her. But he acted like he didn't know her at all at present. Megan and Lawrence's faces also paled when they saw Damon. Meanwhile, Celeste suppressed her discomfort and pretended as if nothing happened. Seeing Carly leave, she then raised her glass at everyone. "The troublemaker has left. Let's have more drinks and not ruin the mood." Carly's appearance was just a minor disturbance. It didn't ruin the overall atmosphere. Everyone had drinks till 11:00 pm. Celeste and Megan helped each other to walk out of Lawrence's house. "Lawrence, thank you," Celeste thanked Lawrence softly. "You don't have to. We need to teach Carly a lesson. She's been crossing the line these days. I'm unlucky enough to be targeted by someone like her," Lawrence said without a care. Megan laughed. "Perhaps Mr. Radcliffe is just too attractive!" The two walked out of Lawrence's place. Mega
"Why are you not home sleeping at this hour? Are you patrolling the neighborhood?" A tall and slender figure approached her. It was Damon. He was smoking while standing underneath the streetlight. He looked at her from above. "Why are you everywhere?" Celeste frowned. She thought that Damon should be lecturing Carly at the Bishop residence. She didn't realize when her mood lightened up a little. "Celeste, you've been drinking so much every day. What a mess you are." Damon said out of the blue. He approached her. He pressed her against the streetlight. "Why do you care whether or not your ex-wife drinks? Damon, are you a god or something?" Celeste insulted him. "Aren't you drinking because you've been in a bad mood ever since we divorced? Hmm?" Damon's face magnified in Celeste's eyes. He pecked Celeste's wet lips. Celeste dodged him quickly. "Damon, why aren't you considering I might be celebrating?" "Since when do you hate coriander in your food?" Damon wasn't about to
Everything Celeste knew about working as an assistant was from Liam. But she knew that her job scope was different from Liam's. Liam's assistance for Damon was more toward Damon's work in the company. She, on the other hand, was technically Spencer's assistant. But she was also working as his Tavernese teacher and nanny. But the point was that Spencer didn't seem to be that kind of person from the outside. Spencer was born with a cold and distant face. If Damon was someone exuding an oppressive and condescending aura, Spencer was best described as cold and depressing. People in the jewelry industry always joked that Spencer, the genius in jewelry design, was anti-social. He looked at everyone as if they were dumb. Anyone would feel lame while being around Spencer. But after a few days of interaction with him, Spencer's behavior didn't quite fit the impression people had of him. Celeste's only working experience was with the Prestige. She couldn't understand how staff should
"Spencer Hunt, the founder of Leo Jewels, has started a new relationship…" "Here's the reason why Spencer came back to Taverdale…" "Celeste York and Spencer Hunt." It was noon on the second day when Celeste saw the trending searches. "You're good at this, Cel. Didn't take long for you to date a second guy." Megan sent her the link. All the trending searches on Twitter were about how she watched a movie with Spencer. The picture featured her leaning on Spencer's shoulder while being covered in his coat. She was sleeping soundly as the movie ended. On the other hand, Spencer tilted his head and looked at her lovingly. "Isn't Spencer Hunt the king of the jewelry designing industry? He's actually straight!" "Ah, it's obvious he likes her so much. I didn't think someone like him would have that look on his face when he started dating." "Celeste York is Damon's wife!" Someone posted a video interview of Celeste when she was pregnant. "Did Damon's wife, Celeste York, cheat o
Celeste wanted to close the door, but Damon was quicker than her. He entered her house. "Are you dating Spencer now?" His chest heaved up and down as he tried to suppress his fury. He pressed her against the door and demanded. He was already angry earlier on. But when he saw Spencer's car parked below her apartment, he hit the roof. Celeste was speechless. "No. That picture was taken while I was asleep." "Does an assistant have to watch a movie with her boss?" They were even leaning on each other! "This seems to have nothing to do with you?" Celeste couldn't help but retort. She couldn't just tell Damon she was just trying to earn some cash by watching a movie with Spencer. Damon would make fun of her. Damon's eyes dimmed. That's right, they were now divorced. Even if she got together with Spencer, what did that have to do with him? Damon felt frustrated. But he couldn't stop himself from speaking harshly. Still pinning her against the door, he gritted his teeth. He sai
Celeste read through the content of the top search briefly. It was a three-thousand-word essay posted by the Bishop Group's official account describing how promiscuous of a woman Celeste was. When she was studying abroad, she left Lawrence hanging and never gave him an answer. After she returned to Taverdale, she pretended to be a staff member and went into Damon's room to get laid. She ruined Damon's original engagement with the heiress of the York family, Shannon. When she saw the founder of Leo Jewels was coming back to Taverdale, she quickly divorced Damon and immediately went after Spencer.There was true and false information. It described Celeste as a woman who tried to climb her way up the social ladder for the sake of status and wealth. And the Bishop family was the victim of the situation! The essay emphasized the part where she seduced Damon. All the timestamps and locations of the event were listed clearly. It was so detailed that it even shared the part of how Shann
"Damon, we must deal with this matter this way!" There was embarrassment on Serena's face, but her tone was assertive. At this moment, sacrificing Celeste could protect the Bishop Group and the benefits of their millions of shareholders. She discussed with the authorities of the Bishop Group about countless strategies. Sacrificing Celeste was the safest option. It was also the one with the highest success rate. Serena thought that if Celeste got angry and started fighting with the Bishop Group on the internet, the popularity of this topic might help them turn things around. She just didn't expect Celeste to endure the slander and play along. When Serena pushed Celeste into danger, Celeste voluntarily accepted it. Serena did feel some guilt. But she thought that she was just acting for the greater good. Discussing this with Damon would just add more pressure on him. "Sacrificing Celeste alone could protect the Bishop family and the pockets of millions of our shareholders. If C
"Transfer the money to her in batches then. Send a portion to her every quarter of the year," Damon said. When Liam knocked on Damon's door the next day, there was an awkward look on his face. Damon lifted his head and looked at him. "Uh… we transferred 50 million dollars to her, but Mrs. Bishop transferred the money right back." "Did she say anything?" Liam seemed troubled as he passed his phone to Damon. "Tell Damon that not everyone cares only about money and benefits." He could even imagine the look on Celeste's face when she saw the money. She had always been a proud woman. This incident must have disgusted her. She'd think the Bishop family only cared about benefits and not relationships. Their action would only appear unscrupulous and unconvincing to her now. As the head of the Bishop family, Damon was certainly viewed in that way as well. He read her message again and again. Being looked down upon by his beloved woman made him feel suffocated. He called he
