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.

    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

After all, you can't outwit me."Alright, get out of here. Remember, don't let Yardley catch you.

    "How are you feeling today, Parker?"Parker was awake when Celia walked into the ward. He was holding a book in his hand—an anthology of essays.He instinctively set the book aside when he noticed her and replied, "The doctor said I might have to stay for a longer observation, but I feel like I'm already better."He felt like a plant, stuck to his bed every day, unable to move freely or go anywhere. Besides, he was troubling Celia by visiting him at the hospital.Most importantly, he wanted to get discharged as soon as possible so he could officially ask Celia how she felt about him."How's the progress on the set? I still have a few important scenes to shoot. I'm worried that the filming process will be slowed if I continue to stay in the hospital. "It would be terrible if the film didn't make it in time for the film festival after its initial release."His brows knitted, and his tone became urgent when he thought of the film's production.Celia had already informed the direc

Her brows knitted slightly as she comforted Celia. "Perhaps Dr. Fletcher might have his own reasons for not wanting to talk about your parents. Don't worry. You'll find out about them one day. It’s not like you can rush these kinds of things.""But …" Celia frowned, her tone urgent and her disappointment palpable.

    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?"

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?"

    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.
