Yardley showed an innocent look. No one in Hughes Inc. had ever seen this side of their CEO. His grip on Celia's waist tightened. Their bodies were practically pressed against each other's.

"Well, I only say those flirtatious words to you. You're my wife. Of course, I should shower you with sweet words to show my affection."

Celia had experienced Yardley getting intimate with her on many occasions. This time, however, she could relax due to the gradual buildup of the amorous atmosphere in the bedroom.

She extended her hand from under the blanket to caress Yardley's neck. Then, she leaned a bit closer. With a smile, she whispered near his ear, "Yardley, you're so good to me."

Yardley didn't say anything, but his gaze deepened. He felt like flames were ignited inside him.

He cupped Celia's face, stared at her for a few seconds, then leaned down and kissed her. The kiss was gentle and lingering as if he wanted to savor her whole being from the inside out.

At the same time, his han

Morgan froze a little upon seeing that it was Celia. She set down the flowers she was holding.Emma teased, "Maybe it's from an admirer who wants to pursue you."Morgan's hand that was pinching the flower petals paused for a moment.

    Richard casually tapped on the table after hearing what Morgan said. "I may not fully understand the woes of a young female actress like you, but I know quite a bit about health and nutrition. You need to replenish your energy after working the whole morning."Morgan rolled her eyes and continued resisting the temptation."Then, just take a sip secretly. I'll shield you so that your manager won't see. How about that?" Richard suggested with a lowered volume."Okay. Just one sip." Morgan reached out and took the juice. She exchanged a glance with Richard and sucked in a big mouthful of juice.Morgan felt refreshed upon tasting the juice's sweetness, and a satisfied smile lit up her face.Due to Morgan's proximity, Richard got a close look at her long smooth hair, which was dyed into a chestnut brown shade for the advertisement.

    Marc turned to glare at Willow, feeling torn and unable to understand her. He opened his mouth, but only one word came out. "You—"What could he say? Was he supposed to criticize her and lament that she had changed? Should he express how she had let their parents down, or that she wasn't like this in the past?He hesitated for a moment but couldn't come up with anything else.Willow looked at him and raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong with me? Didn't you say that Yardley and I were a good match for each other? "Now that I want to marry him, isn't it perfect? You'd better hurry up and win over Celia so that Yardley will be mine."Marc felt helpless at Willow's obstinacy. He glared fiercely at Willow. For the first time, he didn't feel like talking to her anymore.

"No need to be modest. You deserved the praise.""I didn't expect Morgan would happen to do a good deed like this," Celia remarked in her office.She nodded in satisfaction while reading the news online. She confirmed the truth with Emma, only then did she give instructions to the company's PR team to keep this topic trending. Having Morgan's popularity persist for a while longer would be beneficial to the company.Just then, someone knocked on the door. Celia glanced at the door. "Come in."Parker showed himself in and nodded politely at Celia."What's up?" Celia didn't expect that Parker would come and look for her.

He wanted her to rest and didn't want to aggravate her sickness. "Rest in bed, Nicole. I'll go down by myself. You don't have to come.""It's okay. I want to see you off."

    "To be honest, I found out what Willow did last time. The incident at the Golden Crane Hotel … She went too far, and I was also to blame for not keeping a closer eye on her. I know she has caused you and Mr. Hughes a lot of inconvenience, Ms. Stanton. "I'm here to apologize on her behalf. I hope you'll forgive me and Willow. My sister is just spoiled and immature. I hope you won't hold this against me or our collaboration, Ms. Stanton."Realization dawned on Celia.The polite smile playing on her lips gradually faded.Celia had known Willow was out to get her from the start, and she had played cat and mouse with her numerous times. But Celia began to wonder if Willow felt any shame in making her own brother apologize for her "immaturity" over and over."In that case." Celia raised her chin slightly and looked Marc in the eye as she felt she needed to have a serious talk with him about this issue."I'd like to talk to you about this as well, Mr. Xanders.

    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."

    "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?"
