Celia smiled wryly as she crossed her arms and watched Angelica's performance with cold eyes.

To be honest, she was a little taken aback.

Celia couldn't believe that Yardley's beloved Candy was such a two-faced bitch. He sure had a peculiar taste.

He had previously claimed that she resembled Candy. Celia couldn't help but wonder how she resembled this cunning bitch!

Angelica was still acting pitifully in front of Yardley, wiping her tears away. "Yards, it hurts!"

Yardley frowned and cast a cold glance at Celia. "Why did you push Candy?"

"Me? Push her? When did I ever push her?" she thought. Celia couldn't believe that Yardley had jumped to conclusions without considering the facts.

Celia realized how unfamiliar he had become as she looked at the face in front of her.

She took a step forward and looked Angelica in the eyes. "Ms. Martinez, you know very well whether or not I pushed you."

Angelica pretended to be afraid and snuggled into Yardley's embrace, sniffl

    "What's the matter?" Celia asked."Look. Netizens are attacking you again. This time, it's about you and Parker." Nicole handed Celia her phone, her tone filled with indignation. "These reporters have no morals! They'll write anything." Celia lowered her head and glanced at the phone. Parker was seen carrying her suitcase in one hand and helping her out of the car with the other. The photos were from the day Parker had brought her over here. The angle of the photograph made their posture appear somewhat intimate."King of Movies Parker Blithe's New Love Interest Exposed. Spending One Night with Hughes Incorporated CEO's Former Fiancée Celia Stanton, Suspected Cohabitation." Cohabitation? The media sure had vivid imaginations. They seemed to be writing just about anything now!"Celia, should I find someone to take these stories down? It's outrageous!" Nicole fumed as she stood up for Celia.However, Celia's focus was on heading to Mount Blanche as soon as

    "That's enough," Yardley interrupted Angelica. "Stop talking about her." "Oh. I won't bring it up if you don't want to hear about it, Yards," Angelica said meekly.She glanced at the glass shards on the ground and said, "Let me help you clean up." "That won't be necessary. The janitor will clean it up later," he said apathetically."Let me do it. It would be terrible if you stepped on it by accident, and I'd feel bad." She insisted on doing it. Angelica crouched down and began picking up the glass shards from the floor as she said that. Yardley frowned and leaned back slightly. He was irritated by the netizens' comments. He took out his phone, subconsciously opened his contacts, and found Celia's number. His expression darkened as he read the word "Celia." His fingers hovered over her name, before backing away as he hesitated. He eventually pressed the call button with mixed feelings after doing that several times. However, he was informed th

    "A coincidence?" Celia frowned. Nicole nodded and pursed her lips before asking, "Let me ask you, when did Candy show up?" "The day Yardley and I were supposed to get engaged," Celia replied thoughtfully. "But what about before that? Did Candy not exist?" Nicole continued, "I read in the entertainment news that Candy is a singer at Charming Creatures, and her stage name is Angel.""Yeah, Norman had a birthday party there before, and I've seen her there too." Celia nodded, now understanding Nicole's point."Isn't that strange? I heard you say that Yardley had been looking for Candy all along and that his subordinates had searched for her for several years without success. "You even had Anthony look into Candy not too long ago, but he came up empty-handed as well. How could Anthony have missed her if Candy was just a singer working at a bar? It's one thing if others couldn't find her, but you already know Anthony is one of the best hackers in the world." Celia narrow

    "Ms. Stanton, please be careful. If all goes well, you should be able to reach Joram Peak before dark." The middle-aged woman, Lydia, kindly packed some dry rations for Celia. "Thank you." Celia's heart warmed as she felt the simplicity and warmth of the humble mountain villagers. "Please be careful, Celia!" Nicole was still very worried.Celia gave her a reassuring smile. "Don't worry. I should be able to bring Uncle Fletcher here tomorrow." Celia carried her backpack and walked into the mountains.The sky was only lightly dusted with snowflakes at the beginning. Celia was determined to reach Joram Peak as soon as possible to find Joaquin, so she walked forward briskly. When she got halfway up the mountain, the wind picked up, and the sky darkened. It looked like it was about to snow heavily.Celia quickened her pace. She had to reach her destination before nightfall and find Joaquin. The sky was soon blanketed in thick snowflakes. The snow was falling he

    The girl in the seat raised her head and called out softly, "Yards?" Oh! It was Candy, not Celia. Yardley couldn't hide his disappointment. "What are you doing here at this hour, Candy?"Angelica smiled as she stood up. "Yards, I've just joined Hughes Inc. I don't know what I'm doing, so I'll have to work hard. I don't want people to gossip about me, and I certainly don't want to embarrass you." "It's getting late. You should go home and get some rest," he said apathetically as he glanced at Angelica.Angelica lowered her gaze. "What about you? Why aren't you going back? You mistook me for Ms. Stanton earlier. Are you still thinking about her?""No. It's just that this is Celia's seat, and I thought you were her," he said indifferently."I see." Angelica picked up her glass and took a sip. "I read online that she's living with Parker. Yards, you should stop thinking about her." He frowned. "I'll take you back, Candy." Angelica fell silent when she noticed

    "Call the police! Quickly!" Nicole was frantic with worry. She took a few deep breaths to calm herself. Her fingers were trembling as she dialed the emergency number.The men nearby shook their heads and said, "Calling the police won't help. There's an 80% chance that the person's a goner after encountering an avalanche—""No. Don't say that! Celia will be just fine!" Nicole yelled. Everyone was startled by Nicole's demeanor.Lydia stepped forward and patted Nicole's shoulder. She tried to reassure her, saying, "Calm down, Ms. Yandell. Your friend might still be alive."Nicole nodded and got in touch with the search and rescue team. "Please come over as soon as possible! My friend is trapped in the mountains because of an avalanche!" The search and rescue team arrived in no time, but the snowstorm was too severe. The team leader looked at the raging snowstorm and said solemnly, "I'm sorry, Ms. Yandell. The current weather makes it impossible to launch a rescue operat

    Yardley felt tense after hanging up the call. Worry and anxiety gnawed at him. He couldn't believe that Celia had encountered such a dangerous situation, of all things.How could this be possible? Wasn't she supposed to be with Parker?Why had she gone to Mount Blanche? Even if Joaquin was there, why didn't she tell him? He could have sent someone over.Yardley collected his thoughts. He spoke coldly to Candy, who was still standing beside him."Candy, you go back first. I have to leave for a few days." Realizing that Yardley's tense behavior was likely due to Celia again, Angelica's smile froze. She had heard every word of Yardley's conversation with Nicole.Initially, she had been in a very good mood upon hearing that Celia was in danger. Angelica had heard that Celia had gone alone to Mount Blanche to find someone to treat Otto and that she had encountered an avalanche there. An avalanche was extremely dangerous. Celia might have been buried in the snow. She might have

    Yardley boarded the helicopter swiftly.The helicopter flew in low circles. Yardley held a pair of binoculars in his hands. He looked down and saw nothing but a vast expanse of white.Every inch of the mountain was covered in snow, which obscured everything. Yardley couldn't see a thing."Slow down," Yardley ordered sternly. He couldn't afford to miss any clues as to Celia's whereabouts, no matter how trivial they might seem.The helicopter circled back and forth repeatedly, but all Yardley could see was the endless snow."Yards, we've searched several times. But I still don't see anything." Angelica sat beside Yardley, pretending to use the binoculars to look for Celia's traces.She was secretly delighted. Everything on the mountain had been covered by heavy snow. Not even a small animal was visible, let alone someone as big as a woman.Celia must have been buried under the snow!"Keep looking!" Yardley's stern voice rang out.It was impossible for Celia to vanish without a t

    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.
