The smile on Lisa's face vanished in an instant after she left the house. She took out her phone and found the news she had bookmarked.

Celia had been supervising the set recently, right?

Lisa was going to show Celia what it was like to spend the rest of her life in regret.

After hailing a cab, Lisa gave the driver the film set's location. "Go to this address. I have a friend who's filming there. I'm going to visit the set."

Half an hour later, she arrived at the film set.

"Cut! You did a great job in this scene, Parker. You nailed the male lead's inner turmoil and sadness, and your expressions were spot on. You truly deserve your title as King of Movies."

The director nodded in satisfaction and sang praise for Parker as he glanced at the footage on the monitor.

Parker smiled. "It's also thanks to your guidance. After all, it takes two to tango."

"Don't be modest. I just watched the footage with the director. Your performance in this scene was truly outstanding.

    Parker had already received first aid in the ambulance when they reached the hospital. Celia watched in horror as the blood soaked through Parker's costume.She had never seen such a scene, let alone witnessed her friend take a bullet for her with her own eyes.She couldn't care less about the situation on the set at the moment. The doctors rushed Parker into the operating theater as soon as the ambulance arrived at the hospital. Celia clasped her hands together as she sat in a chair outside. Even her fingers were trembling.The doctor came out shortly. He looked at Celia, who was outside the door, and asked, "Are you the patient's family?"Celia hurriedly looked up and walked up to the doctor, her face pale with worry. "I'm his friend … Doctor, how's Parker doing?"The doctor frowned and said solemnly, "His wound is very deep. He must have surgery to remove the bullet immediately, or his life will be in danger. "Could you get in touch with his family and have them sign the su

    Celia took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down as she looked at Yardley's slightly hardened expression. "No matter what, let's talk about it after his surgery tonight. Otherwise, it won't be good if word gets out."Despite his anger, Yardley had to admit that she was right at that moment. "Then, I'll wait until Parker's surgery is over before talking about this. You must give me an explanation then."The sign outside the operating theater remained lit as time passed by.Celia had no idea how things were going on the set. She was growing increasingly anxious, as all she could think about were the words Parker had said to her. Yardley was also pacing back and forth.It was pindrop silent outside the operating theater.After about two hours, the light on the sign outside the operating theater finally turned off. Not long after that, the doctor pushed open the door and walked out.Noticing that, Celia hurriedly rose to her feet. She walked over to ask, "Doctor, how is P

    Angelica was taken aback. Yardley had never been like this since she had moved to Lunaria. She pursed her lips and turned to leave after noticing his stern expression.Meanwhile, at the hospital, Celia sat in the ward and stared at Parker, who had his eyes closed on the hospital bed.He had just undergone surgery, and his wound had been bandaged. Celia pursed her lips and didn't say a word.She was well aware of Parker's feelings for her, but she had no idea what to do.Her phone suddenly buzzed. Celia came to her senses and picked up her phone to see that it was a message from Morgan.Morgan: "Lisa has been taken away by the police, Ms. Stanton. How is Mr. Blithe doing?"Celia: "He hasn't woken up after surgery."After responding to Morgan's message, Celia turned off her phone. The television in the single-patient ward was also broadcasting the news at the moment."Famous Actor Parker Blithe Shot on Set of 'Farewell, My Love'. Suspect Burke in Custody".The news also showed

    "Save Lisa?" Willow repeated his words in a rather mocking and contemptuous tone as if she had just heard a joke. Her face twisted into a sneer. "Please don't take this the wrong way, Mr. Burke. Lisa had hired hackers to steal Starlight Entertainment's company secrets last time. "She had already been arrested by the police once, and it was you who personally sent someone to bail your unruly daughter out."But this time she took a gun and went to the film set herself, and what happened? Not only did she fail to kill Celia, but she also shot and injured Parker. "Isn't this her own fault? No one forced her to do it. Mr. Burke, please understand that my family isn't a charity organization. "Besides, Lisa is so useless. She couldn't even do the simplest task I asked of her, and now she's willingly putting herself back behind bars. "Even if I bail her out, what could a friend like that give me in return?"I advise you to save your energy. It's a waste of time to ask for help from

    "Yardley! What are you doing? Let go!"Yardley dragged Celia out of the ward. She tried to pull away with all her might and stop him when the two of them reached the corridor.He abruptly came to a halt, turned around, and looked her in the eyes. She drew her hand back and used her other hand to hold her wrist."Don't be jealous—""You're my girlfriend."Yardley was feeling displeased. He couldn't figure out why Parker was always clinging to Celia. Where did that leave him, her actual boyfriend? Even though the two of them were no longer engaged, Celia would still become his woman sooner or later!He immediately wrapped his arms around Celia's waist and yanked her toward himself.Then, he kissed her passionately and took her breath away. In the heat of the moment, she tiptoed slightly and wrapped her arms around his neck.His kiss was lustful, longing, and possessive.There weren't a lot of people passing through the hospital corridor at that moment. Occasionally, children t

    Yardley stood in place without saying a word. He just leaned back slightly when he heard Angelica's words.Angelica lowered her head and walked out slowly. Her heart was racing, and she didn't dare to meet his eyes when she passed by him.All of a sudden, her face turned pale. Angelica closed her eyes and collapsed onto the ground as she neared the door."Candy! Candy!"Yardley hurriedly reached out and held her in his arms. He lifted the woman and carried her out of the study when he noticed her pale face, and she didn't respond to his repeated calls.Angelica was lying in the large bed in her bedroom, covered with a blanket, when she came around. Yardley was walking toward her with a cup of chamomile tea in his hand.The tension in his eyes dissipated, and he appeared relieved when he noticed she had woken up."Candy." He walked to the side of her bed. He set the cup he was holding on the bedside table, helped her sit up, and placed a cushion behind her."You're awake. How ar

    Yardley waited until the two women left before helping Angelica sit on the couch. He fetched the first-aid kit to dress her wound.Angelica took a deep breath and drew her hand back as soon as the iodine made contact with the wound on her hand."I'll be gentle, but it's going to hurt a little." Yardley looked at Angelica with concern as he carefully disinfected and bandaged her wound. "How long have they been here? Did they give you a hard time?"Angelica was overjoyed when she noticed his reaction. She shook her head in response to his questions."Madam Lillian and Quinn had just gotten here when you came. B-Both of them meant well. I won't take their words to heart."Yardley frowned, and he pondered for a moment before saying, "You can ignore those two the next time they come over. Or you can just give me a call, and I'll handle them."Angelica smiled and almost jumped for joy, but she pretended to be reserved and nodded. "Alright."She and Yardley were a done deal. What cou

    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?"

    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?"

"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?"
