"Ah!"

Quinn and Lillian screamed in horror when they saw Otto. They instantly went pale and yelled while shrinking into a corner.

What was happening? Had Otto come back as a ghost?

"Dad ... Dad, I'm so sorry ... I never intended to harm you. Please don't come looking for me. I'm Yardley's mother. Please don't come for me ..." Lillian whimpered.

She had already dropped her flashlight in fear. She covered her eyes tightly, unable to bear the sight of Otto's corpse, which was sitting upright.

Quinn was trembling with fear as well. She was deathly pale. Beads of sweat had formed on her forehead as well.

"Grandpa? Are you … I didn't mean to harm you. You should blame Celia for what happened to you. It's all because of her! If it hadn't been for her, we wouldn't have done this!"

"So you're the ones who poisoned me and falsely accused Celia of my death. Now, you want to steal my body and destroy the evidence?" Otto asked with a haunting voice.

Lillian and Quinn exchanged glances. The

    In the hospital's VIP room, Celia and Yardley carefully helped Otto lie down on the hospital bed."Rest well, Grandpa." When facing Otto, Yardley's tense face softened slightly.Otto patted Yardley's hand. "Yardley, I'm fine."Celia watched as Otto lay down. She covered him with a blanket.Then, she advised, "Grandpa Hughes, I know this incident has made you very angry and sad. But you must stay calm. "For the sake of your health, you shouldn't get agitated. You shouldn't hold on to any grudges in your heart, or it could easily affect your health again."After careful observation, Celia had figured out that Angelica, as well as Lillian and Quinn, were planning to harm Otto.Hence, she and Yardley had made plans in advance. In the operating room, she had cured Otto as she said she would. She had swiftly replaced the silver needle that the nurse had applied poison to with a clean one while administering the treatment.Her actions had been lightning-fast, so no one in the room

    Celia hadn't found concrete evidence yet. But based on the information that she currently had, Angelica was very likely a fake."What's wrong?" Yardley inquired.At this point, he wasn't very concerned about whether Angelica was actually Candy. He was mostly disappointed in her. Besides, the person he truly loved was Celia. As such, he had no interest in any other women whatsoever.Yardley reached out and ruffled Celia's hair. The indifference in his eyes was replaced by tenderness. "Are you still bothered about Angelica? I can make sure she never appears in front of us again.""No." Celia shook her head."Then?" Yardley was somewhat puzzled. Celia had brought up Angelica, but now she was saying she wasn't bothered. In that case, why had she mentioned Angelica in the first place?"Didn't you say that Candy fell down a cliff to save you eight years ago?" Celia looked up at Yardley."Yes." Yardley nodded.The scene that day intruded on Yardley's thoughts without warning. He

    Thinking on her feet, Angelica hailed a cab and instructed the driver to follow the cab Celia had taken.At Charming Creatures, the bar was still lively even when the sun was starting to rise. Men and women reveling in the pleasures of alcohol and companionship basked in the vibrant lights.Celia sat at the bar with several emptied bottles in front of her. Her face was flushed, and she swayed unsteadily. Her eyes were unfocused—a clear indication of her drunkenness.Her exquisite beauty made her the prime target for men looking to have a good time with a woman.A visibly intoxicated man approached Celia boldly. "Hey, pretty lady. Why are you drinking alone? Let me keep you company!"Celia ignored him and continued to sip her drink. The man persisted, undeterred. He even attempted to place his hand on her waist."Get lost!" Celia furrowed her delicate eyebrows.The man's enthusiasm grew at her resistance. "Oh, you're a sassy one! I like it. Haha! Come on, let's get a room. Name y

    Not here?Angelica's heart skipped a beat. How was that possible?Her eyes were filled with disbelief. Celia was definitely inside. Parker was just covering for her!She had seen it with her own eyes, so she couldn't be wrong!Yardley furrowed his brows and turned to Angelica with a cold gaze.Angelica explained, "Yards, I didn't lie to you. Even if you don't believe me, the video can't be fake. Celia must be inside."Parker leaned against the door frame and watched Angelica's frantic explanations with a faint, amused smile.This woman indeed had a scheming mind. No wonder Celia had gone to such great lengths to expose her true face."Tsk." Parker crossed his arms, his tone laced with mockery. "Ms. Martinez, if you're so adamant about me having an affair with Celia, why don't you come inside to see if she's here?""Um ..." Angelica pretended to hesitate.She didn't want to barge in and risk jeopardizing her image. She didn't want Yardley to think that she was an intrusive s

    Angelica retorted defiantly, "You think I'm afraid of you? The person Yardley loves is me! "Eight years ago, I saved him. It's our destiny for him to be mine! "I'm sure you've seen it too. For the past eight years, he has been searching for me. He never forgot about me!"Seeing that she had completely provoked Angelica, a slight smirk tugged at the corners of Celia's lips.Angelica had taken the bait.Celia wanted Angelica to think that she had lost her place in Yardley's heart completely. Celia was about to get engaged to Yardley. So Angelica was bound to become frantic and do something excessive. When that happened, she would surely reveal her true colors.She would inadvertently slip and reveal something. By then, Celia would be able to uncover the truth."Tsk." Celia sighed deeply. She was going to deliver an even bigger blow to Angelica.She sized up Angelica skeptically. "Ask yourself this, Angelica. Do you really resemble the 'Candy' that Yardley always mentions?"

    "Behave yourself! Drive!" Celia's face turned crimson as she pushed Yardley away.Upon seeing that Celia was flustered, Yardley stopped teasing her. He reached over to fasten her seatbelt for her and chuckled softly. "Alright."With distinct control, Yardley gripped the steering wheel and drove Celia to her rented apartment. Since they were putting up an act, they couldn't continue living together."We're here," Yardley announced as he stopped the car and opened the door for Celia."Go. Make sure no one sees us." Celia looked around, afraid that Angelica or her associates might spot them. If that happened, all their previous efforts would be in vain.However, Yardley seemed reluctant to part. He extended his arm and pulled Celia into his embrace. "What's the rush? Are you trying to chase me away?""It's not that. If Angelica's people see us, then—" Celia's words were cut off as Yardley suddenly leaned down and kissed her.This exasperating man! Her injuries hadn't even fully h

    Yardley's indifferent and cold gaze fell on Angelica. His brows furrowed, and his tone turned icy. "If you feel wronged, you don't need to come here anymore. No one here needs your care.""Yards, are you still angry with me?" Angelica spoke softly. Her voice was trembling as she lowered her head.Yardley was probably still upset about what had happened yesterday. He must think that she had wrongly accused Celia and Parker of booking a hotel room together. But that was a trap Celia had set up to frame her!"Celia Stanton! I won't let you off this time!" Angelica fumed inwardly.Angelica's anger reached its peak. Yet, she couldn't show any of it in front of Yardley.She took a deep breath and tried to calm her emotions."Yards, I really saw Celia and Parker together yesterday. I can back up my claims with a video. Celia must have found out and—" Angelica explained.Her eyes welled up with tears, and her voice quivered. Her pitiful appearance would make anyone feel sorry for her.

    "Get to the point!" Yardley's voice was icy.Yannis' expression grew serious. "It's just that BPL has been acting up. They're unlikely to give up easily after their significant loss in the Northern Cove project last time."Yardley narrowed his eyes. "I see."Chandler's animosity toward Hughes Inc. wasn't anything new. It went far beyond just the Northern Cove project.Thinking about the photo Celia had shown him and the fact that Angelica had known Chandler since their time in Atria, Yardley's expression turned frosty."You can leave now. Keep an eye on BPL," Yardley ordered in a stern tone."Yes, Mr. Hughes." Yannis nodded.As he turned to leave the CEO's office, he heard Yardley speak up behind him. "Did Celia come to work today?"Yannis halted in his tracks. He turned around and replied, "Yes, Ms. Stanton came to work."Yardley's expression softened, and this surprised Yannis greatly. He could tell that Ms. Stanton held an extraordinary position in Yardley's heart.Meanwhi

    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. Hence, Morgan said, "Celia isn't seeing anyone today. Please come back another time."To Morgan's surprise, her words ignited the anger that Quinn had been suppressing in her heart.
