Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 53 It’s My Call
Before Celia could say anything, Yardley hung up.As Celia heard the busy tone coming from the phone, she shook her head, feeling helpless.She had no idea why Yardley was looking for her again. He had been acting strange lately, always looking for her for no reason.Celia took the elevator to the 18th floor and went straight to Yardley's office.The door was ajar, and Celia knocked on it."Come in." Yardley's clear voice could be heard coming from inside.Celia entered the office and saw Yardley sitting on his chair. His jacket was lying on the couch at the side. He was only wearing a simple white shirt with two of his buttons casually undone, revealing the strong muscles on his chest. With his handsome features, he was simply a sight to behold.At that moment, Yardley's gaze was fixed on the computer monitor, and he was typing away on his keyboard with one hand.Celia was dazed for a moment. Yardley was known for being a workaholic, and it seemed that it was completely true.
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 54 Meeting an Old Friend at the Restaurant
Seeing that Yardley looked so sullen and his tone was so firm, Celia had no choice but to compromise in the end. "Alright. You're the boss, so it's your call."After all, she was an employee at Hughes Inc. and Yardley was the boss. No matter what, if her boss wanted to stay back and work overtime, she could only follow. That was just professional ethics.After Celia left Yardley's office, she called Norman to tell him that something had come up and she could not make it that night anymore.Norman was clearly very disappointed. "Celia, didn't you just say yes to me just now? Why do you suddenly have things to do?""I'm really sorry. Something urgent just came up. I'll buy you dinner next time." Celia felt a little helpless as well. If it was not for Yardley, the mean man, why would she suddenly have to stay back at work?Celia started to amend the proposal carefully when she returned to her desk.After only changing a few words, she suddenly received a call from Yardley again."M

"It's time for us to get going." Yardley got a little annoyed for some reason when he saw Parker's eyes glued to Celia the whole time. He then said goodbye to Parker and brought Celia into the private room.Celia sat down and tried to pry calmly without being too direct. "How do you know Parker?""We were neighbors when we were kids," Yardley said calmly."Are you very close?" Celia asked.Yardley squinted his eyes. "What's the matter? You seem like you're very interested in him.""Of course not," Celia quickly denied. "I just have a friend who's a fan of Parker's movies, and I didn't expect both of you to know each other. Now I can ask you to get an autographed photo from him.""Is that so?" Yardley smiled without giving a comment."Mm-hmm." Celia nodded, feeling a little sheepish.There was nothing going on between her and Norman, yet Yardley was very bothered by them. He even reminded her repeatedly not to forget that she was his fiancee.What would Yardley do if he found o
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 56 A Visit From Aunt Flo
Seeing such an incredibly harsh sight made Yardley's face turn sullen.What was Celia doing? Why was she together in Parker? What were they doing holding each other so intimately in public?Yardley walked over and asked, looking frosty, "Celia, what are you doing?"Celia pushed Parker away, turned her head around, and met Yardley's frosty gaze. She then put on a forced smile and said, "It's nothing. I'm asking the King of Movies for his autograph.""Is that so?" Yardley furrowed his eyebrows tightly as he looked at Parker. Clearly, he did not believe her excuse. Parker had an impassive expression and only looked at Yardley with a complicated gaze."Of course." Celia smiled. She took Yardley's arm while she said, "Come on. Let's head back."As Parker watched Celia and Yardley leave together, his complicated gaze was filled with a sense of defeat and sorrow.Why would Celia choose Yardley? Did she not know that Yardley had always been in love with another young lady—Candy? He d
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 57 Don’t Get Any Silly Ideas About Him
"The clothes I’m wearing …" Celia hesitated. She wanted to ask who helped her to get changed, but she just could not bring herself to utter the words.An awkward expression appeared on Yardley's face for a brief moment, then he cleared his throat. "Mrs. Lopez was the one who helped you get changed.""I’m sorry to have troubled her." Celia breathed a sigh of relief, Mrs. Lopez was Yardley’s housekeeper.Yardley's handsome and frosty features looked a little more under the orange light. "I had a doctor check on you; your blood sugar levels were a little low.""Alright …" Celia felt so embarrassed that she wished she could crawl into a hole. She fainted just because she was having her period. Since when did she become such a weakling? It was all Yardley's fault!It must have been because she had to wait upon him hand and foot last night, doing everything he ordered, that she slept late and was exhausted. He also kept rushing her to organize the meeting minutes and amend the proposa
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 58 Are You Done Looking?'
Looking at the handsome face, which could take her breath away, getting closer and closer, Celia’s heart pounded so hard."Yardley!" A sudden jutting sound interrupted the flirtatious atmosphere. Celia quickly pushed Yardley away and sat properly. She was annoyed. Why was her face burning? Why did she not push Yardley away earlier? Was she bewitched by his good looks?She looked up and saw that the person who suddenly came uninvited was Quinn.Celia could not help but frown. What was Quinn trying to pull this time?Strutting in her heels, Quinn walked in, glared at Celia, and looked at Yardley. She tried her best to hide her jealousy and asked softly, "Yardley, I hope I'm not interrupting you?"The burning desire in his eyes a moment ago had disappeared, and it was replaced by his usual cold gaze. He squinted and looked at Quinn out of the corner of his eye. "Why are you here?""Yardley, how is your hand? I bought this medication for you. It's very effective," Quinn said wh
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 59 Was That Not Celia
Celia walked to the balcony, turning to make sure that Yardley did not follow her. She then picked up the call. "Parker, what's the matter?""Celia, I want to see you." Parker's voice was just like him, excluding a fair air of melancholy. Celia thought for a bit and agreed. "Alright. I'll meet you at Zeus Café at 10 am tomorrow."She also had lots of things to remind Parker of."See you tomorrow." Parker's voice sounded a little happier. Since Celia had said yes to meeting him, did that mean that he still had a chance? It so happened that the following day was the weekend. Celia left early in the morning as she was used to arriving early. However, Parker got there even earlier. Zeus Café was situated in the most vibrant commercial street of Ashvale City. It was a quiet spot in the bustling city, so it was a good area to relax.Parker was in his car, holding the steering wheel as he drove toward the commercial street.Following closely behind Parker's car was Willow's c
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 60 Secretly Photographed
If she remembered correctly, Celia was actually Yardley's fiancee! And all this while, Willow was in love with Yardley.Previously at Percival's birthday banquet, Willow had set up a trap and wanted to accuse Celia of stealing her diamond ring. That was because she wanted to let Celia make a fool of herself and let Yardley drive Celia away. However, Celia resolved the matter easily.Willow was still resentful about that, and she secretly held a grudge against Celia. She had brought it up to them multiple times, saying that she had to drive Celia, the bitch, away.If she told Willow that Celia was on a date with Parker behind Yardley's back, Willow would definitely be thrilled.However, why was Celia together with Parker? Also, Parker was holding Celia's hand, and they were in a position that seemed very intimate. Could it be that Celia and Parker were having a secret relationship?Parker was a famous actor, so how could he possibly take a fancy to Celia?Celia must have unashamed

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?" Morgan asked. The housekeepers promptly briefed

They barely talked to one another.Sophie knocked on the door for a long time, but no one came out.She could only wait outside. After two hours, she finally saw Morgan and Richard. They came into view, laughing and holding each other's hands.This scene pained Sophie deeply."What are you doing here?" Morgan's cheerful expression faltered the moment she saw Sophie.Sophie could only put on a smile and say, "I brought all these for you. I was wrong to come between your relationship with my son."Richard glanced at the items on the ground. He could tell from a glance that they were meant for postpartum care and immediately understood why Sophie was there."Mom, you should be honest. You got the

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?" Richard punched the couch angrily, his heart filled with bitterness.Sophie hadn't wanted things to turn out this way either, but she had been too angry and spoke

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?" Celia questioned.Upon hearing this, Sophie realized why they were there. Having discussed the issue with Chester, Sophie had finally agreed not to interfere in Richard's and Morgan's lives.So, she didn't object to Celia's words. She even agreed with Celia, much to the latter's surprise.Under normal circumstances, Sophie would have argued with her. Why was she being so agreeable this time?"How about you sign a writ

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. If both of them didn't show up, it would be embarrassing for Quinn.So, she decided to go and find Celia.…Morgan was taking refuge at Celia's place, so she answered the door when Quinn came over."I'm here to see Celia."Celia had instructed Morgan to turn away anyone she didn't recognize, no matter who it was.
