"You can't see the forest for the trees." Celeste mused as she watched the light from Ethan's car disappear."There's something about the way Ethan looked at Ava. I find it hard to believe that he doesn't love her." Megan commented."Ava only said she doesn't love Ethan, not that Ethan doesn't love her." Celeste pointed out.To outsiders, Ava might seem pitiable in this relationship. After all, she was a beautiful woman from a wealthy family who got married to a notorious lover. However, things might be more complex."What is love, if not a vow to live and die together?" Megan remarked wistfully."When you were upset and had come over to my house that day, your godson said the same thing." Celeste suddenly giggled at Megan's sentimental expression."Oh, did he? Leo can be quite funny," Megan was awkward. In fact, love was exhausting, yet men and women were all caught up in it. No one had the right to mock anyone else about it."Come on, let's drink to this. Thanks for always bei

Winston didn't take Celeste home but instead took her to his and Megan's place. He arranged for Celeste to sleep in the guest room.The next day, Celeste finally told Winston everything that had happened at the movie press conference while the three were having breakfast together.Winston looked sympathetic. "So much for Dora's career being all but ruined.""Huh?" Megan lifted her head from her coffee cup, frowning as she looked at him.Was Winston sympathizing with Dora? She couldn't help but think of that incident with Lilian five years ago. It seemed absolutely pointless.What a nice bunch of people at the Belasco."Instead of focusing on making good movies, she's always meddling in nonsense. And now look, she can never make a movie again," Winston went on to say.Celeste retorted coldly, "It’s her own fault. If it weren't for Ava and me cleaning up her mess, someone else would have. I’m full. I'm going back now. Goodbye, Winston."Celeste got up and left."What's the matte

After the incident where Leo was falsely accused by Lester, Kayden was the only one from the Bishop family welcomed by Celeste and her son.The first time he went to the York residence, he didn't give advance notice. He rode a shared bicycle for ten kilometers in the heat of summer. He was seen sweating profusely and standing under the sun with a smile for Celeste.Celeste remembered the first time she was falsely accused by Leah, and Kayden had stood up for her. It softened her heart and made her nose tingle with emotion."Kayden, why didn’t you tell me you were coming? I could have picked you up."She hurried out to bring him inside, wiping his sweat while asking the servants to prepare some cool drinks."I missed you and Leo." Kayden smiled as he drank the watermelon juice a servant had brought. He, too, started addressing Celeste differently.He had grown up and was no longer the little toddler he used to be. Nourished well by the Bishop family, the ten-year-old was nearly as

Celeste, who was as quick-witted as ever, immediately understood what was going on from Ava's reaction."I'll call you back later," she said before abruptly ending the video call."Kayden, do you know Ava?" This wasn't a question to ask Ava. It needed to be asked of Kayden.Kayden seemed surprised that Celeste was unaware. "Ava is a relative of ours. Ava's mother was my brother and I's great aunt."Celeste was taken aback. She remembered meeting Damon's aunts and cousins at Serena's birthday party, but she hadn't met Ava. Even Megan, a prominent socialite, wasn’t aware of Ava’s relationship with Damon!"Do you not interact often?" she asked."We interact privately, but given my uncle's sensitive position, Ava's family avoids public appearances."Celeste did some research and found that Ava's father held a high-ranking position in the South Sea, which he indeed held a sensitive status. He must be a significant person since he wasn't allowed to retire in his seventies. The fact th

Celeste didn't dare delay. The journey from her office to the hospital usually took over half an hour. However, it took her less than twenty minutes this time."Hello, you must be one of the parents. Please, come with me." A person arranged by the kindergarten was waiting at the entrance, and Celeste knew from this setup that the situation was serious."What happened?""The children in the junior class have all suffered from nitrate poisoning today. We suspect someone in the kitchen staff tampered with the food. The police have been notified."The hospital had reserved a reception room for the kindergarten, and the staff member led Celeste upstairs.In the reception room, there were already about a dozen parents with worried expressions."Ms. York, Leo's symptoms are the mildest. He only suffers some dizziness and vomiting. The doctor has administered him an antidote. There's no need for worry." Leo's teacher hurriedly informed Celeste upon seeing her."Show me the lunch menu."

Celeste had picked Leo up from school many times before, and she remembered the kid named Jordan as a chubby little guy with dimples when he smiled. He was a gentle boy and loved to smile. His nickname was either Little Burger or Fries."I will hold your kindergarten accountable for this!" The young father of the child roared in agony.Celeste's heart trembled along, and she clenched her fists tightly.The poisoner deserved to die! Such people should be locked away forever!It was only because Leo knew about his pineapple allergy and avoided that dish. Otherwise... Her face turned frightfully pale, and she trembled.There were thirty children with varied degrees of poisoning. Jordan died despite attempts to save him. Several other children were in intensive care."I want to see Leo," Celeste said.She seemed so fragile that it tightened Damon's heart. He reached out and pulled her petite shoulders close while soothing her in a deep voice. "Don’t be afraid. I’m here."It was rar

At that moment, Damon felt as though an earthquake had struck within his heart.His beloved son changed his way of addressing him during an unlikely event."What did you call me, Leo?""It's fine if you didn't hear it." Leo felt somewhat awkward. He looked away with a pout and was unwilling to make eye contact."My dear boy. It's my fault for not taking good care of you these past few years." Damon said as he moved closer, lifted Leo into his arms, and their foreheads touched."From now on, I will make sure to take good care of you." And the boy's mother as well.He left the last sentence unsaid.The seriousness of Leo's poisoning brought many visitors to the hospital room in less than a day. Jane came first, followed by Winston and Megan, and then Jasper and Kayden.Serena arrived slightly later. By then, everyone had left, and Leo had just fallen asleep.Damon sat by the bed. He turned off the air conditioning to avoid the harsh breeze and began fanning Leo gently. Meanwhile

Damon's eyes darkened. Vera was undoubtedly a servant of the Bishop family. There couldn't be anyone else!Just as Celeste had suspected. The poisoning incident was indeed targeted at Leo!Fortunately, Leo was allergic to pineapple and hadn't eaten it. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable."Any news on Vera?" Damon dialed Ruben's number."Don't worry. I've contacted all major transportation hubs. Unless Vera hides out somewhere and doesn't show her face, whether she takes a car, drives herself, or even flies, she won't be able to get anywhere," Ruben had experience in handling such matters. He sounded steady and confident.That day, a warrant for Vera's arrest was posted on major platforms."A major criminal case has occurred in our district. The suspect, Vera, is at large. The following are her physical characteristics. She was about 5 feet 1 inch tall and weighed approximately 95 pounds." Attached was Vera's ID and her photo from the kindergarten."Anyone wi
