Morgan forced her body upright and saw Emma declining a few incoming calls on her phone.

Morgan couldn't help but apologize. "Emma, I'm so sorry. It's all my fault that you have to stay with me here. I remember you still have a lot of work to attend to. Please don't put it off because of me. I'm feeling fine already."

"It's alright. I've already applied for leave from the company," said Emma with a smile, but soon her phone rang again, interrupting their conversation.

Emma was about to decline another call when Morgan quickly stopped her and said, "I'm really fine now. You should get back to work. Don't postpone anything because of me. Besides, Richard is here—not to mention that he's a doctor."

Seeing how close Morgan and Richard were, Emma did not comment further. She only left Morgan a few reminders before she turned to leave for work.

Richard checked the thermometer and confirmed that Morgan's fever had gone down. He rolled up his sleeves as he said, "I'm going to cook you so

    After treatment and recovery, Morgan's emotions stabilized a lot, and soon she was back on track with her daily life and work."Yes, I'm feeling better," Morgan said softly to the phone."Alright, remember to get enough rest. Call me if you need me." It was Richard's voice on the other side of the call."I want to thank you for being by my side for the past few days," said Morgan as she was reminded of how helpful Richard had been. The two chatted a while longer before they had to end the call because Richard had to attend to a patient."Mr. Black again?" Emma asked."Ah, yes. He has been so helpful these days. I have to thank him, don't I?" Morgan answered gently."I have a feeling that Mr. Black is treating you with extra care," teased Emma smilingly, sounding a bit nosy."What about Mr. Black?" Morgan had been texting Celia with her head lowered, so she did not hear what Emma said.The car stopped, and Emma shook her head with a smile. "Nothing. We're here.""You're being

    "Don't tire yourself out. You've just recovered." Emma was still worried."I'm fine. I've had enough rest the past few days. Don't you worry, okay? See you later," said Morgan before she left.Parker's office was just downstairs. Morgan did not wait for the elevator and went down the stairs. Standing at the door, she briefly adjusted her clothes, inhaled deeply, and knocked on the door."You're here." Parker opened the door and stood aside to let Morgan in."Are you busy with anything? Am I late?" asked Morgan softly as she scanned the room briefly."I was reading the script when you came." Parker poured Morgan a glass of water.Honestly, since the incident, their relationship had been delicate. Morgan did not quite know how to get along with Parker.Though script reading was just an excuse for her to be with Parker, she still concentrated on the script when they started practicing."You're already doing great." Parker looked at Morgan and flashed her a complimenting smile.Re

    Yardley was fine at first, but when he heard Celia mentioning the trending topics on social media, his expression darkened. After much thought, he chose to stay silent and placed a bowl of soup in front of her."Forget about it. Everything's fine now. When I carried you out from there, the reporters had already seen us. Tomorrow, I'll get Yannis to take down the posts. You don't have to worry."Celia looked at Yardley in surprise. She raised her brows and asked smilingly, "That's weird. Why aren't you angry today?"Yardley glanced at her helplessly. How could he not be jealous? But seeing Celia trapped in the cave, he still couldn't bear to let his woman be too tired. Besides, it was really not Celia's fault this time. "Of course I'm angry, but you're not to blame for this. I'm just jealous. Besides, you've been trapped in Miller Gardens all night. You should be tired enough," replied Yardley lovingly.Celia laughed. A relationship would be the most ideal when both persons were w

    Celia was already home when Yardley returned in the evening. He rested his head on her legs as the two of them huddled on the couch. "Did you know that Michelle has come to Ashvale?" he asked after a while."Oh, she's in Ashvale?" Celia instinctively lowered her head and looked into Yardley's eyes when she heard Michelle's name. She was aware that Michelle had feelings for Yardley. "I didn't know about that; she might be here for you."She came off a little jealous.He realized she might be unhappy. Hence, he deliberately teased her with a smile. Though, what he said was the truth. "Yeah, she came for me. Michelle came to the office today and told me that she really likes me and wants to be with me."Celia involuntarily clenched her fists and gripped his sleeve as she anxiously asked, "And what about you? How did you respond?"He looked her in the eyes and smiled warmly. "I told her that I already have you and asked her not to crack such jokes with me. Besides, she's just a

    Michelle didn't realize that it was a bad idea at that time. Everything else faded away whenever she thought of Yardley. "Would that really work?" Michelle cocked her brow.The bodyguard wore a smile and tried to butter her up. "I came across it on TV. But this is still better than going to Mr. Hughes' office every day, Princess …"Her face darkened in an instant, and she glared at him before cursing lowly, "Get lost!"The bodyguards stiffened and scrammed without saying a word. All of them were aware of the princess' temperament. Anything could happen if she became enraged.Michelle sat alone on the bed after the bodyguards left and narrowed her eyes. Surprisingly, she began to consider the bodyguard's suggestion."I will win you over, Yardley!" she swore inwardly.…The opening ceremony of "My Youth, My Choice" took place after careful preparation.

    "Do you need me for something?" Celia looked at Parker."Not really. Are you going back to the office later? I could give you a lift since I'm heading back as well," he said with a smile."That's alright. I drove here." He turned his attention to Morgan after Celia declined."I'm so happy for you, Morgan." His tone was relaxed. "I should be able to get along with Morgan again now," he thought.But for some reason, he had a feeling Morgan was hiding something.Morgan felt despondent as she forced a smile to keep her emotions from showing on her face.This was not the reaction she wanted, nor were these the words she desired to hear."He's coming to pick me up in a bit, so I have to go now.

    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.

    "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.

    "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?
