Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 199 Candy Joins In
Angelica watched as Celia walked out indifferently. A malicious look flashed in her eyes.How dare Celia pretend not to have heard her calling after her! Angelica fumed inwardly.Taking a deep breath, Angelica suppressed her feelings of jealousy and looked at Yardley with a playful expression. "Yards, what is this Northern Cove project that Ms. Stanton mentioned earlier?""It's a recent real estate project for the company," Yardley replied absentmindedly.Originally, he hadn't intended to assign this project to Celia, especially considering that she was still busy with Flames of Ice.But Celia was so cold toward him. Since she insisted on discussing work matters, he had assigned her the project just so that she would stay around him a little longer.Angelica's eyes twinkled. "Can I work on it as well?""You've just joined the company. I suggest you start with simpler projects," Yardley remarked.He didn't have high expectations for Angelica's work. He had only brought her to Hu
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 200 Airport Encounter
It was Parker's birthday already?Celia tilted her head and thought for a moment, realizing that it would indeed be his birthday soon.Thinking of this, Celia felt a little exasperated because Parker would confess his feelings to her on that particular day every year.Even though she had politely declined every time and been very clear with him, Parker remained persistent."Celia, what's wrong? Are you still there?" Parker inquired nervously when he didn't hear any response from Celia."I'm listening. Yeah, I'll come," Celia replied without much enthusiasm."By the way, I'll tell you some good news at the party." Parker smiled unconsciously, and his expression softened. He couldn't help but feel elated that he would be seeing Celia in a few more days."Alright, see you then." After Celia hung up, she massaged her temples a little. She wondered what Parker meant by "good news".Well, she didn't mind it, as long as it wasn't another confession.After that, Celia gripped the stee
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 201 We Will Definitely Meet Again
Celia stopped in her tracks after hearing a cold, sharp sound behind her. She noticed that the man in the hospital bed was awake when she turned around. His brows scrunched up, and his lips slightly pursed as he stared at her. She smiled and explained, "You were in a car accident just now, and I brought you to the hospital." The man squinted his eyes slightly when he heard that. "Is that so?" he asked.Celia nodded. "Don't worry. The doctor has already conducted a thorough examination. It's nothing serious. You can notify your family to come over and stay with you."She raised her hand and checked her wristwatch before continuing, "It's late. I'll be leaving now if you don't need anything else. Get some rest." Then, she turned and left. His sensual, thin lips curled into a smile as his deep, penetrating gaze remained fixed on Celia's silhouette. "Celia, is it? I believe we will meet again very soon," he thought.… Celia awoke early the next day, which happen
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 202 Kneel and Apologize to Me
"Get the hell out of my way!" Celia's patience wore thin when she noticed Lisa was still in her way. She pushed Lisa aside and walked out the door. She must be down on her luck today! She had gone out to shop, but encountering those two had truly ruined her mood. Celia hadn't gone far when Willow and Lisa caught up with her. "Celia Stanton, stop right there!" "What is it now?" Celia impatiently stopped in her tracks. Would these two ever leave her alone?Lisa marched up to Celia and pointed to her own shoulder. "You just hit me, and you deliberately ruined my dress!" Hit her? Ruined her dress? Celia's uninterested gaze landed on Lisa's shoulder, tinged with mockery. Her dress had been torn at the shoulder, and there was an eyesore of a hole that made her look extremely unsightly. How could she have ruined Lisa's dress with a light push? Were these two attempting to frame her again? How dull. Willow discreetly exchanged a glance with Lisa when she noti

Yannis had made plans to have lunch with his friends. He noticed a crowd gathered at the entrance to HN Luxuries while walking down Elmwood Avenue. Upon taking a look, he was surprised to see that Celia was surrounded by a group of people that appeared to be ganging up on her.Stopping in his tracks, he walked closer to get a better look. It turned out that Willow and Lisa were picking a fight with Celia.Naturally, Yannis didn't believe that Celia would intentionally ruin Lisa's dress. He considered stepping forward to help her, but he hesitated after some thought. Yardley should be the one rescuing the damsel in distress. Although a lot of gossip news outlets were reporting that Yardley had dumped Celia to be with Angelica, he believed that the person Yardley loved the most was still Celia. As for Angelica … he probably just felt a sense of duty toward her. Whipping out his phone, Yannis dialed Yardley's number.Yardley had gotten up early in the morning to clock in
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 204 The Truth
Looking in the direction of the voice, Celia noticed Regina, who had been standing there the entire time. Regina had suddenly spoken up. "Regina? What can she prove?" Celia was perplexed.Upon recognizing Regina, a reporter exclaimed in excitement, "It's Regina! The famous pianist—Regina Wright!" A reporter pointed their microphone at Regina, inquiring, "Ms. Wright, do you mean you can prove that Celia ruined Ms. Burker's dress?" Regina smiled as she nodded. "Yes." Gathering around her, the reporters pressed on. "Could you please tell us what happened at the time?" "I was here to buy a scarf when I noticed Ms. Xanders and Celia having a dispute. Then, Celia pushed Lisa and intentionally tore her dress," Regina said with a smile, maintaining her elegant demeanor. Celia regarded Regina with suspicion, wondering why she would provide false testimony and assist Willow in shifting the blame to her. Regina did not even know her. Yardley walked into HN Luxuries at
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 205 Restoring the Surveillance Footage
Yardley's presence was so overwhelming that Travis had no choice but to comply. "Yes, Mr. Hughes." Travis returned to the surveillance room, where he carefully reviewed the surveillance footage multiple times. He wanted to ensure it wouldn't give anything away before bringing the USB drive out with him. He returned to the store a few minutes later."Mr. Hughes, this is the surveillance footage from that period." Travis walked up to Yardley and handed him the USB drive. Yardley's overwhelming presence made it hard for Travis to breathe. He thought he was just doing a small favor for Lisa, but he hadn't expected Yardley to be involved. He hoped to avoid any further complications. "Play it," Yardley said matter-of-factly. "Right away." Travis plugged in the USB drive and played the footage. As expected, Celia and Lisa were nowhere to be found in the surveillance footage on the computer screen. "Perhaps they were standing in a blind spot, so they weren't capt
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 206 Celia Is So Violent
"N-No, it's not like that!" Lisa's eyes darted around as she tried to defend herself. "I didn't know when my dress ripped. We just had a dispute, so I assumed you were the one who ruined it. I had no intention of falsely accusing you!" She couldn't lose! There was no way in hell she would get on her knees and apologize to that bitch! "Is that so?" Celia smiled as she stood up and approached Lisa. "Of course. Do you have any evidence that I damaged it myself?" Lisa became frustrated. Pointing at Lisa's dress, Celia said calmly, "The hole in your dress was clearly caused by someone pulling on it forcefully. It had only been a few minutes since I left until you and Willow caught up with me. Who else but you could have done it in such a short time?" Lisa tensed up. "This is just your wild guess. Don't accuse me falsely!""Celia isn't falsely accusing you. It was you who ruined your own dress." Yardley, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up. "Mr. Hug

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

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
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 902 Malicious Woman
"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

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.
