Ms. York's Second Proposal Chapter 520
Celeste was okay. Although she had gone through a year or two of torment, she had ultimately healed herself and moved on from her emotional wounds.She had always been a rational person and adept at managing her emotions. Even though she ended up in such a miserable state, she harboured no deep resentment toward Damon.After all, if there were such a thing as an emotional balance in the world. Damon's kindness toward her outweighed the negatives by many times.Although he was cold and heartless toward her before they parted ways, it was an undeniable fact that he fell ill at that time.She'd never asked about Damon in the past few years, and the Belasco family and Megan had chosen to keep their mouths shut. She wondered if Damon had married Fiona now. How was his health?Celeste's heart still ached when she thought of him after a few years. She could blame no one but fate. She sighed.Children aged 2 to 5 with leukaemia could be treated with cord blood. Celeste kept some of it wh

Damon fully regained consciousness about six months after losing Celeste. Meanwhile, Fiona hadn't given birth back then, yet she bugged him every day in the name of the baby.Fiona had always been this way. She'd do anything to get what she wanted, and Damon had learned this a long time ago.His initial declaration of intending to marry Fiona and take responsibility for her was merely a strategic move to drive Celeste away and not waste her time. He would never marry her.Damon's reason for doing so was simple. The child was innocent and carried the blood of the Bishop family. While he could take responsibility for Fiona, she didn't deserve any sympathy, no matter what she went through. After all, she was the one who set him up in the first place.The situation went back and forth, with twists and turns. Even after Fiona gave birth to the child, she never married into the Bishop family.Later, Fiona changed her tune and made demands to Damon, saying that as long as he could convin

After listening to the doctor's advice, Celeste decided to return to her home country.According to the doctor's assessment of Leo's condition, while his condition was troublesome, the cure rate for his disease was high if a suitable bone marrow donor could be found.The situation had already happened, and Celeste had no choice but to trust the doctor and move forward.Seeking help from Damon was the last resort when they couldn't find a suitable donor, but it was also one of the backup plans.Based on Leo's condition, he would need three to six rounds of chemotherapy to stabilize his condition before he could proceed with a bone marrow transplant. That would take one to two years. Celeste thought that, in the meantime, they could do a bone marrow match. They have enough time to find a donor from the bone marrow registry.With this in mind, Celeste settled everything and returned to her home country with Leo.Her jewelry company's development was smooth enough that she didn't nee

Sebastian recognized Damon. He immediately understood the current situation and put down his fork to greet Damon with a smile. "Hello, Mr."The use of "Mr" as an address carried a great irony to Damon. He clenched his fist and didn't respond.Leo looked at Damon indifferently without saying a word. He had long been used to not speaking in unfamiliar situations.What a good-looking kid. He was as aloof and distant as his mother, with the same captivating yet icy-cold eyes.Damon had noticed Leo from the beginning. He also noticed Sebastian creeping a little closer to Celeste. He was asserting his dominance. A wave of bitterness welled up in Damon's heart."Did you come back for a visit?" He forced himself to speak.Celeste nodded. Then she shook her head again as if remembering something. "Not really. We've come back to settle down."Her "we" referred to her and her son. But to Damon's ears, that statement also included Sebastian.The atmosphere became tense once again."Leo, s

Sebastian's sexual orientation wasn't known to the public, yet he appeared "straighter" than most straight men. Damon's friends knew about Celeste's remarriage, but they all chose to keep silent about it around him.As for Leo, Celeste didn't hide his existence. Privacy laws regarding children were strict abroad, and taking photos of minors without parental consent was illegal. Moreover, she wasn't a public figure. Hence, keeping Leo's existence under wraps was easy.Even though she settled back in her home country, Celeste didn't intend to hide Leo's existence. She had nothing to feel guilty about regarding Damon. Hence, why should she avoid anything? They should just live their separate lives.Damon got heavily drunk that night. Meanwhile, Celeste and the others treated the incident as a minor episode. After Damon left, they talked about other things as if nothing had happened.She admitted that seeing Damon looking so haggard made her feel incredibly sorry for him. But so what?

On Sundays, the Bishop residence's housekeeper would bring Damon's son, Lester Bishop, to the mansion for a day of play as usual. This was the only father-son time Damon had in the past three years.The child didn't initially have the name “Lester.” Damon chose the name "Lester" after gaining custody of the child. It was widely known that this name was selected simply because its pronunciation was similar to Celeste's.Damon's love for Celeste had already awakened at the time. However, she was already married to someone else, and it was too late for him to do anything about it.The fact that Damon used the child's name as a means to express his longing for another woman displeased Fiona. However, after Damon helped her regain visitation rights to her other two children, Lester was bought out by the Bishop family according to the agreement. Fiona had no say in the matter anymore.At first, Fiona dreamed of using the child to get Damon to marry her. She would visit the Bishop residen

Damon was filled with bitterness as he looked at the pretty child before him. If he and Celeste made up and had another child, he wondered what their child would look like.Would their child be as intelligent as Leo? Their child would probably be good-looking as well. After all, neither he nor Celeste lacked looks.It was strange that Damon didn't feel any resentment when he saw Celeste's child with another man. Instead, he was filled with a longing for what could have been if the child had been his.But then again, he was the one who had done wrong. He didn't deserve to resent anyone.Damon stared at Leo and was lost in thought. What was on his mind? Leo looked at him in confusion. Damon didn't say anything, and neither did Leo. He allowed Leo to scrutinize him."Leo, have you been doing well these past few years?" Damon suddenly asked.However, he felt frustrated after asking the question. How could he talk to a three-year-old like that? How could he understand?"It's been pre

Leo was initially playing outside the villa with a maid. However, the maid took a phone call on the way and accidentally let him run away.It wasn't until the maid realized Leo was missing and was about to go back to the Belasco's for help that she realized Leo had returned with the ball in his hand."Leo, my dear prince, where did you go?" The maid, with a worried expression, held him tightly and bombarded him with questions."Nowhere." Leo concealed what had just happened. He felt gloomy as he returned home with the maid.While Leo was a genius child, he had only been in the world for just over three years and lacked experience in hiding his emotions. Others might not notice anything wrong with him, but Celeste, as his mother, saw it all.He wasn't happy.Leo's temperament was similar to Celeste's. He was a child with a strong personality. Although he could be aloof, he rarely got upset over trivial matters.What happened to him?Celeste went to ask the maid what had happened

He never would have imagined that the intelligent and aloof Celeste would have a day like this, appearing adorably naive and innocent.Damon used to like girls who were delicate and pure, but that changed when he met Celeste.She had a face full of charm and allure, but her expression and personality were always cold and unyielding. She was pale and slim, yet not childlike. On the contrary, she resembled a young poplar tree, proud and upright.Because of her, he began to like girls who sparked his desire to conquer, and he scoffed at those who were simply weak and shy.But now with Celeste like this, he didn't feel annoyed. In fact, not only was he not annoyed, he actually found it cute and interesting.“What's your name?” she asked again."Damon.""Oh, that sounds really nice."The initial confusion in her eyes was gone, replaced by a sparkling glimmer, and her tone carried a touch of a young girl's excitement."You are actually my husband… Wow, great job, me! I've managed to

"What? Aren’t you my husband? Do I still need to avoid you while changing clothes?" The confusion in Celeste's eyes didn’t seem fake.Damon was speechless and didn't know how to respond at that moment.When Damon didn't respond, Celeste suddenly felt a bit nervous."I'm sorry… I can't remember clearly. Aren't you my husband?"Damon raised an eyebrow casually and asked, "Why do you think I am?"Celeste innocently blinked, her eyelashes fluttering like fans. "The nurse said it. Besides, if you're not my husband, why would you sleep with me at night?""What did the nurse say?" Her reasoning was actually logical and undeniable. For a moment, Damon found it somewhat amusing."The nurse said that my husband is really thoughtful," Celeste responded seriously. Then she asked, "Aren't you my husband? Then why would you be willing to stay here with me so late?"This one sentence left Damon speechless.The reason he was willing was because he was a coward. He said that he didn't care abo

Damon frowned upon hearing the classic amnesiac questions being asked."Celeste, are you trying to act out a TV drama?"Celeste still looked at him blankly. "What do you mean?"Damon didn't answer and went straight to the director's office to get Nicholas.Knowing her, she wasn't the type to joke around, especially not with Leo still missing. She must have hit her head hard.Nicholas was equally surprised and hurried back to the room with Damon.Celeste was sitting up, hugging her knees and staring into space."You're awake? How do you feel?" Nicholas asked with a smile as he entered."Why am I here?" Her voice sounded hesitant, and she turned to look at them.Her confusion seemed genuine. Nicholas and Damon exchanged worried glances."Celeste… you don't remember?""Celeste?" She asked, "Is that my name?""Yes.""I don't remember. My mind is blank.""Do you remember… Leo?" Nicholas hesitated. After all, if she knew that her child had been missing for three days, he was wo

"Alright," Celeste said in a deep voice. "Let me see Leo first."They pushed open the hidden door, revealing a staircase leading to the basement."Have Leo come to the stairway corner." She stood at the dark staircase and negotiated with the kidnapper."Mommy!" Suddenly, Leo's desperate cry echoed from inside."Leo!" Celeste ditched everything else and rushed down the stairs.She ran ahead, and as soon as she reached the corner, there was a loud explosion, and a wave of heat hit her face."Celeste!""Celeste!"Damon and Winston's faces changed drastically, shouting in alarm.The basement was empty. It was a trap.Had they been more careful, they would have noticed that both the kidnapper’s voice and Leo’s cry were artificially synthesized. But Celeste, in her desperation to save her son, had been too frantic to discern this.The basement was rigged with landmines. Unfortunately, something went wrong. The mine exploded when Celeste reached the stairway corner, instead of when

What? Damon was also coming? Celeste felt her heart leap, and her voice became sharper as she said, "I can handle this. You can't come!"There was no response from his end.Observing Damon’s silence, Celeste quickly softened her tone. "Damon, listen to me. I can handle this alone. There's no need for you to get involved… because I'm their main target, and they likely won't harm Leo. You need to stay home and wait for him. You need to take care of him later on…""Celeste," Damon interrupted coldly. "Are you planning on not coming out alive?"Of course, coming out alive would be ideal, but she couldn’t guarantee that."Damon, I do have a chance of surviving, but when it comes to exchanging myself for Leo, there can be no room for error. We must follow the kidnapper's instructions to ensure Leo's safety."It was out of the question to provide a false sense of security and pretend to comply with the kidnapper, only to backtrack and get Leo killed.She needed to ensure Leo’s safety a

They checked all the surveillance footage near the Bishop residence and investigated every suspicious vehicle. They also had people keeping an eye on Henry, but after half a day, there was still no breakthrough.The kidnappers had taken Leo to threaten Celeste, and the lack of communication was meant to unnerve her. If it was according to predictions, she was supposed to wait for their demands. But, as a mother, she couldn't just sit and do nothing.Celeste remembered that Shannon had called her, so she found her contact in the blacklist and called."Shannon, did you and Henry kidnap Leo?" she demanded.Shannon laughed coldly. "Don't accuse us without any evidence. Your son is missing? Maybe it's karma. Hahaha!"Celeste hung up, unable to stand Shannon's smugness.Several teams searched for over 20 hours, even involving the police, but still had no solid leads. Celeste suspected Henry, but they couldn't just arrest him without any proof.She was extremely desperate. She didn't e

"Lester isn't as clever as Leo. He's just a four-year-old child, and he shouldn't have done anything like that," Serena instinctively defended Lester. Then, recalling the last time she had misunderstood Leo for similar reasons, she felt a pang of guilt and added, "I don't mean to imply anything… I'll have someone bring Lester here."Celeste nodded. "I'm not blaming Lester. I just want to understand what happened."Soon, the nanny looking after Lester brought him in. Unexpectedly, upon seeing Celeste, Lester burst into tears."Aunty Celeste, please don't hit me. I didn't mean to lose my brother!""Lester, I just want to understand what happened." Celeste was taken aback by his crying but kneeled down to speak gently. "I'm not blaming you. Can you tell me what you saw that day?""Aunty Celeste, don't hit me!" Lester kept crying, not saying a word about Leo's disappearance."Am I that scary, Lester?"At this moment, Celeste felt at a loss. She could communicate normally with Leo,

Celeste perfectly understood what Cedric's implied. "I mean, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to entertain me today."Cedric had indeed wanted to help her that day, but his identity was too special to admit it openly. The scratch on the paper was a subtle hint, and whether or not she could interpret it depended on her intuition. The fact that she could decipher such a subtle hint proved her intelligence and luck.Over the years, Cedric had developed a sense of respect for Celeste after learning about her. He felt she was deserving of assistance, but he couldn't make it obvious."However, be careful. I see that Henry is at the end of his rope and might act irrationally. You should be on guard," Cedric warned.Celeste nodded, having considered this as well. "Henry wants me dead."This was why she had her brother stay abroad and sent Leo to the Bishops. With only herself remaining, it was harder for Henry to use her loved ones against her."Take care of yourse

Celeste's deduction was correct. Cedric intentionally left the mark. As Winston dug deeper, he slowly uncovered a series of issues.It was a bridge project on a highway in a poor mountainous area. Not uncommon.The problem was that the person in charge of this project was a leader assigned from a first-tier city to oversee the development. Officially, he was recognised for his capabilities, but in reality, this task was one he had to succeed in without failure.He had offended someone, and this transfer was a disguised punishment under the guise of a major responsibility.If he had managed it well, the chances of him returning to a higher development role would have been slim. At best, he could stay in this position until retirement. If he didn't manage it well, his entire career could be ruined.Someone of such status naturally had supporters as well as opponents. In such a situation, it was impossible for anyone to sabotage and create pitfalls along the way."It seems the next
