Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 104 Invite You to Dance
Celia and Yardley stood next to each other at the entrance of the banquet hall. The revolving glass doors in front of them showed their reflection.Yardley glanced at the woman beside him. His deep gaze landed on her incredibly alluring figure. A barely perceptible glimmer of amazement shimmered in the depths of his eyes. He extended his arm, bent it slightly, and said, "Take my arm."Celia hesitated for a second before reaching out and taking his arm. She was attending the banquet as Yardley's companion that night, so this was a matter of courtesy.The corner of his lips involuntarily curled upward into a faint smile. It was rare for her to be obedient. The crowd was excited when they saw the couple walking in side by side.Yardley's tailored, fitting black suit showed off his impeccable physique. He became the center of attention as soon as he appeared.Celia was equally radiant. She was dressed in a white gown that outlined her graceful figure. Her demeanor exuded elega
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 105 Yardley and Willow Danced
Yardley walked toward Celia after he said that. He extended his large hand to her and nodded before asking, "May I?"Celia was enthralled by the man in front of her. There was no way she could refuse Yardley's invitation in front of everyone."Of course." Celia smiled politely and extended her small hand gracefully, placing it in Yardley's palm.He led her toward the dance floor. The couple danced gracefully in the center of the dance floor as mellow music played. Although it was their first time dancing together, they moved in perfect harmony, almost as if they had been dance partners for years.Yardley lowered his head, his deep gaze landing on Celia's face. He asked indifferently, "Don't we seem to be in sync, Celia?"She nodded. "Yeah, we're alright. We should be able to dance better if you slow down a little."He pressed his thin lips against her ear and whispered, "That's not what I meant."Celia's cheeks burned as his warm breath brushed against her skin.It was undeni
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 106 Annie's Apology
"I knew I had a special place in your heart, Yardley." Willow couldn't stifle her excitement as she pressed her body against his.Yardley glanced at her apathetically. From the corner of his eyes, his gaze was fixed on the elegant figure sitting in the corner. Celia felt inexplicably frustrated as she watched Yardley and Willow embrace each other tightly on the dance floor. "Out of sight, out of mind," she thought as she stood up and walked toward the entrance of the banquet hall. "Where are you going, Celia?" Parker hurriedly followed her.Celia stopped in her tracks. Turning around, she said coldly, "I'm feeling a little under the weather. I'd like to be alone for a while." Then, she walked out of the banquet hall.Parker's eyes darkened as he watched Celia's retreating figure. He wondered if Celia was feeling uncomfortable because of Yardley. He could tell that her mood had changed after Yardley took Willow to the dance floor.Despite Celia's denial, Parker's intuition t
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 107 Fight Fire With Fire
Celia lifted her glass and pretended to drink about half of it. Then, she took advantage of the darkness and secretly poured the remaining half out. Annie didn't notice it. She smiled, thinking that Celia had drunk half the glass of spiked red wine. She had succeeded! Celia had consumed the tampered drink. She would face the consequences soon!Celia sneered quietly when she noticed the expression on Annie's face. Celia intentionally swayed. Holding the wine glass in her left hand, she supported her head with her right hand. "Oh dear, why am I feeling dizzy?""What's wrong, Celia? Are you okay?" Annie asked, feigning concern."My head is spinning, and it's hot …" Celia pretended to look like she wasn't feeling well. She weakly leaned her whole body against the railing."Did you eat something that didn't agree with you? How about this? I'll take you to the lounge to rest for a bit." Annie stifled her excitement. She stepped forward and kindly supported Celia."Alright, thank
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 108 Annie
"I just saw her being very intimate with a man. It seemed like they were headed toward the lounge on the second floor." Willow deliberately exaggerated it."Celia is so inconsiderate of her status. She got all intimate with a man in public as if she doesn't care about you—"Yardley had already stormed off to the second floor before Willow could finish her sentence.In the lounge, Annie lay on the couch and kept tugging at her clothes. Her entire body felt like it was on fire.Suddenly, the door to the lounge opened. A man with blonde hair walked in. Willow had deliberately arranged for this thug to show up. The plan was for Annie to drug Celia and then have this man come in and take care of things. Then, just as the two got all heated and passionate, Willow would bring Yardley over to catch them in the act.The blonde man immediately spotted Annie on the couch. "Dang, she's hot." Blondie got all excited. He could spend the night with this beautiful woman and get paid. It was
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 109 Who Angered You?
The reporters' questions helped Annie snap out of her daze. She glared at Celia menacingly. All of this had been orchestrated by Celia! Celia had forced her to drink that glass of wine and made her embarrass herself in front of so many people."Celia Stantion, you wretched woman. I'm in this mess because of you!" Annie yelled, rose to her feet, and tried to slap Celia.A large hand grabbed Annie and forcefully pushed her to the ground before she could reach Celia. Annie looked up and realized it was Bruce.His blue eyes were filled with disgust. "Annie, you have truly let me down! Getting it on with this man … do you have no shame?"Annie's heart raced as she faced Bruce's accusations. How had it come to this? Even Bruce was here, and he'd seen Annie with that guy …"It's not like that, Bruce. Let me explain. I don't even know him," Annie hurriedly said."Darling, why are you saying you don't know me?" Blondie got upset when he heard that. He slowly stood up from the couch.

Celia felt inexplicably annoyed as soon as she heard Yardley's name. She slammed her glass onto the table and said, "Can we not talk about him?""Oh, it looks like I guessed it right." Nicole grinned. "I have to say, Yardley is quite impressive. I had heard of him long ago while I was abroad. Now that I've seen him today, he truly lives up to his reputation." "What reputation is there to live up to?" Celia frowned. She recalled what Yardley had just said in the elevator."He's tall, handsome, wealthy, and powerful—a perfect match for you," Nicole joked.Celia picked up her glass and chugged it. "Tacky!"Nicole cleared her throat. "My eyes are sharp, you know. Both of you were perfectly in sync during the press conference, as if you were made for each other. Don't tell me you haven't caught feelings for him, Celia.""Oh, hush." Celia leaned back in her seat and took a deep breath."You know that there's nothing between Yardley and I. Gramps just insisted I come to Ashvale City
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 111 Challenge His Limits
The music was blaring, and everyone was having a great time on the dance floor. No one noticed the commotion in the corner of the bar.The man in the red shirt was a notorious ruffian named Ian. He frequented the bar to pursue women. So far, he'd gotten every woman he'd set his sights on.Ian had been determined to get his hands on Celia since he'd first laid eyes on her. He thought he could thoroughly enjoy himself that night. He hadn't expected Celia to smash a bottle on his head, though. Ian lost it as pain surged through his head. He called out to his henchmen, who were nearby. "What are you guys waiting for? Get your asses over here!" Several burly men immediately surrounded Celia. "Catch her!" Ian held his head and stared menacingly at Celia. "How dare you hit me, you audacious bitch? I'll make you pay tonight!"Celia frowned, but she remained calm and composed. There were four people in total, including Ian. She probably had a fair shot at dealing with this group o

In fact, Yardley didn't tell anyone. … Meanwhile, Morgan stumbled upon a surprising find. She discovered two healthy, month-old babies at the orphanage. "Director, is it true that no one wants such young babies?" Morgan felt a bit emotional. How could people be so heartless as to abandon their own babies? The director of the orphanage let out a deep sigh. "You don't know the whole story. Our janitor found these babies at the orphanage's entrance. Someone left them there and disappeared. "We've been taking care of them for about half a month now, and their condition has improved significantly." Looking at the adorable babies, Morgan couldn't shake the feeling that they belonged to Celia. "I'm here on behalf of Yardley Hughes else to adopt these children, but..." Morgan expressed her concerns. Morgan anticipated the orphanage director's refusal. To her surprise, he actually agreed. "The opportunity for these two babies to have some good days is preferable to nothing.

"Let's go, Celia. We shouldn't disturb the twins' rest," said Yardley as he supported Celia and got ready to leave. Celia waved her hand and stood in front of the incubator. Even with the glass barrier, she could still discern the condition of her children. She reached out to touch them, as if her touch could make them feel her presence. She resolved to take her children home safely. Celia lingered for a while before finally leaving the hospital. Once they were home, Celia locked herself in her room, disregarding any attempts anyone made to talk to her. Yardley headed to the company to attend to some matters, while the housekeepers remained at home. Meanwhile, Morgan couldn't shake her concern for Celia, so she came to visit her. Upon entering, she heard the housekeepers upstairs calling out, "Mrs. Hughes, are you feeling better? Come out and have some soup!" However, there was no response from inside. "What's going on?" Morgan asked. The housekeepers promptly briefed

Sophie had failed to get Celia's forgiveness. So, she had no choice but to pin all her hopes on Morgan.She took all the supplements to Morgan's apartment. Richard was staying there with her.Ever since the incident with Celia, Sophie's relationship with Richard had become very strained. They barely talked to one another.Sophie knocked on the door for a long time, but no one came out.She could only wait outside. After two hours, she finally saw Morgan and Richard. They came into view, laughing and holding each other's hands.This scene pained Sophie deeply."What are you doing here?" Morgan's cheerful expression faltered the moment she saw Sophie.Sophie could only put on a smile and say, "I brought all these for you. I was wrong to come between your relationship with my son."Richard glanced at the items on the ground. He could tell from a glance that they were meant for postpartum care and immediately understood why Sophie was there."Mom, you should be honest. You got the

Otto didn't back down and insisted on his right to see his grandchildren. However, Yardley paid him no mind. He shook his head and said, "Celia needs rest. Please come back another day."The next second, he instructed the housekeepers to close the door and left Otto standing outside. Otto stomped his walking cane on the ground in frustration but had no choice but to leave.As Yardley made his way back inside the villa, he thought of another troubling matter.Although they had brought their children home, the twins had been weak because they had been born prematurely. They had appointed a family doctor to treat the twins but hadn't seen much improvement in their health. Yardley sanitized himself before he went into the nursery. He felt pained when he heard the twins' weak breaths."Mr. Hughes." The family doctor spoke up with a frown, indicating that the situation was far from ideal."The baby girl has been slowly recovering, but the boy remains very weak. I don't think the n

"Don't worry. She's fine. She's just a bit weak at the moment."Remembering Yardley's words outside the ward, the doctor felt a wave of nervousness. He could tell that Yardley and Celia weren't ordinary people judging by their attire. They were certainly not ones to be trifled with."Did you say that we had twins?" Yardley turned to ask the nurse after learning that Celia was alright."Yes, sir." The nurse chuckled inwardly. She found that, despite Yardley's intimidating appearance, he was a very devoted husband.Soon, Celia was moved out of the operating room and into a VIP ward.Yardley gently wiped the sweat from Celia's face again. He took in her pale complexion; it was a sign of how much she had suffered."How's Celia?"Sounds of hurried footsteps came from outside. Ashley and the others had come over. Yardley turned and signaled them to leave.Celia had just given birth, so she needed a quiet environment to rest. Having too many visitors might affect her recovery.Ever

"How could you hit me because of her? I'm the mother of your child!" Sophie shrieked.She had never suffered such humiliation. She had been showered with love from a young age and wasn't accustomed to such harsh treatment. So, she became agitated and emotional."Isn't it all because of you that things turned out this way? Would such a thing have happened to our company? Would Richard suddenly want to break all ties with us? It's all because of your reckless behavior!" Chester vented years of suppressed grievances and dissatisfaction as if it would make him feel better.Celia watched as Chester and Sophie argued fiercely. She stepped forward to stop them, especially since there were many people outside watching the spectacle."Stop fighting. This isn't the time or the place for arguments!"Sophie went at Chester and started hitting him. Celia tried to break up their fight, but Sophie pushed her. Celia took a few steps back at that. She didn't attempt to intervene anymore."It's

"Mrs. Black, we'd intended to negotiate amicably with you and achieve a satisfactory outcome for both parties. "The decision to move out was mine, and I asked Celia to come over and help me out. If you're unwilling to be decent and compromise, then let's end things between our families here."Morgan felt relieved after expressing her thoughts. It was like a significant weight had been lifted off her shoulders. "What do you mean?" Richard panicked. Just when their relationship had slightly improved, the situation took a turn for the worse again."We're breaking up for good!"Morgan left after saying that. Jessica and Darby left with her, leaving the Blacks behind."This is all your doing! Look what you've done! How many times have I told you not to be so assertive and bossy? Why don't you ever consider my feelings?" Richard punched the couch angrily, his heart filled with bitterness.Sophie hadn't wanted things to turn out this way either, but she had been too angry and spoke

"It's fine. You two can go if you have something else to attend to," Jessica said.Soon, Celia arrived at the Blacks' residence with Jessica and Darby.Sophie opened the door and was surprised to see Celia standing at the doorstep with Jessica and Darby. She couldn't understand what Celia was up to.Once they were inside, Celia didn't beat around the bush and stated her purpose directly. "I think you might be having some misunderstandings about Morgan."Sophie smiled without saying anything."Don't you think you're interfering too much in Morgan's personal life?" Celia questioned.Upon hearing this, Sophie realized why they were there. Having discussed the issue with Chester, Sophie had finally agreed not to interfere in Richard's and Morgan's lives.So, she didn't object to Celia's words. She even agreed with Celia, much to the latter's surprise.Under normal circumstances, Sophie would have argued with her. Why was she being so agreeable this time?"How about you sign a writ

After saying that, Celia hung up.On the other end, Quinn felt very displeased. After all, it was her party, and she had personally called Celia to invite her. Quinn felt that Celia had snubbed her by refusing to attend.Quinn thought about it for a moment. If Celia didn't come, Yardley probably wouldn't either. If both of them didn't show up, it would be embarrassing for Quinn.So, she decided to go and find Celia.…Morgan was taking refuge at Celia's place, so she answered the door when Quinn came over."I'm here to see Celia."Celia had instructed Morgan to turn away anyone she didn't recognize, no matter who it was.
