"Thank you," Celia responded politely because she didn't want to have any major disagreements with Quinn in front of Otto.

Lillian pretended not to notice anything and conversed with Otto. Otto responded here and there, yet she didn't seem to mind.

Yardley, on the other hand, kept a close eye on Lillian. He was afraid that she and Quinn would do something to harm Otto again.

The group had lunch together at the old Hughes estate. Quinn remained silent throughout the meal, and when she did look up, it was mostly to look at Celia.

Yardley and Otto kept giving Celia food, and it made Lillian and Quinn, who were sitting across from them, look like complete outsiders.

Celia stood by the pool, her hair swaying gently in the breeze. She had come out to get some fresh air and to see if she could get any new inspirations for her designs.

Quinn pushed open the balcony door and smiled sardonically when she noticed Celia standing by the pool.

She had a eureka moment and wanted to push

    There was no reason not to discuss it now that Marc had brought it up. "I've considered the terms you proposed. It is quite beneficial for Starlight. But why do you trust me so much? After all, you're aware that your sister and I …"Celia didn't continue after that, as she believed Marc would understand what she was getting at.Marc was momentarily taken aback, but his expression remained unchanged. Then, he smiled apologetically. "I'm aware that Willow has made a lot of mistakes, and she hurt you and Mr. Hughes. But I assure you, this has nothing to do with her. "Even though Starlight Entertainment is a relatively new company, it is a great one with a lot of talented people. "Half of the most popular and talked-about TV shows and movies as of late have been produced by Starlight Entertainment. Why wouldn't I choose you?"Celia nodded. Marc's reasoning was sound.

"It's a beautiful place. You'll surely like it.""Is that so?" Celia smiled faintly.Why was Yardley being so mysterious?However, he had piqued her curiosity.Yardley led Celia to the garage, where he chivalrously opened the car door for her.

    Celia had a strong personality, so it was unusual for her to express her sadness. Yardley strode over to her side and held her."What's wrong?" he asked with concern after pulling her into his arms.Leaning on Yardley's broad, muscular chest, Celia felt inexplicably safe. She shook her head and smiled faintly. "I'm fine."Yardley guessed that Celia might be thinking of Barnaby. So he suggested, "Why don't you give your grandfather a call? With the time difference, it should be daytime over there. You could also tell him the date of our engagement."Celia nodded in agreement and dialed Barnaby's number."Gramps, it's me. It's noon there, isn't it?" she asked with a smile.Hearing his dearest granddaughter's voice, Barnaby was over the moon. "Yes, it's noon here. I just finished some outdoor activities, and I had a lot of fun.

She lamented internally.Meanwhile, Celia was at a loss for words as well after hearing Parker, so she put a stop to the topic and said earnestly, "If that's the case, I shall not meddle with your personal life. "However, I hope that you will consider the company even when you're acting on impulse. After all, you're not representing just yourself. Parker, in three days, I want to see you back on track with your work."Celia was seldom so serious. Parker kept quiet because he knew in his heart that he had gone overboard with things this time. In response, he nodded and said, "Alright, understood. I will be careful in the future."After all the twists and turns

    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..."

    "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.

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."

    "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?

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?"
