Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 591 The One Who Put in the Most Effort
This was the first time many of the guests had seen such exquisite carvings. Besides being awestruck, they were at a loss for words.Jasmine, who was standing aside, seemed to be in even greater shock. She found it hard to believe what she was seeing. The carving on these beads far surpassed the craftsmanship of her opal ornament, which was in the shape of a mountain peak.Carving on a single bead was much more difficult than doing so on a large opal piece."This is incredible! From a distance, you can't see any patterns on these beads.""Who could have crafted something like this?""But didn't Ms. Stanton say it was just an ordinary old man? Could there be someone even more skilled than the renowned sculptors that we know of?""I thought Ms. Stanton's gift was average, but she had put in the most thought into preparing her gift." The guests were amazed and started to ask Celia where she got the bracelet from.Otto hurriedly took the bracelet back and looked at it closely, a
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 592 Utter Defeat
Jasmine had never experienced such an utter defeat in her life.The admiration that should have been directed toward her was now entirely focused on Celia. Jasmine tightened her fists, which were already clenched at her sides.She was reluctant to admit defeat.Sadly, no one paid attention to how she was feeling right now. The guests' entire focus was on Celia and Otto."Do you like this gift, Grandpa?" Celia smiled at Otto. Although she could tell from Otto's reaction that he was satisfied, she still wanted to hear it from him.As Otto looked at Celia's hopeful expression, he answered unexpectedly, "I am a bit dissatisfied." Celia's smile faltered right away. She looked at Otto with an innocent and pitiful expression. "But Grandpa, I put so much effort and time into preparing this gift. What could you be dissatisfied with?""I have no issues with the gift you prepared. What I'm dissatisfied with is that old man, Ben."Celia blinked curiously upon hearing that.Otto crossed
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 593 Zero Acting Skills
However, just as Celia was about to walk over, someone intercepted her. Celia frowned and looked at the person before her."Excuse me, are you Ms. Celia Stanton?" The man's voice was clear and cold, and his eyes held a hint of amusement as he looked at Celia."And you are?" Celia tried to recall who he was. She soon realized she didn't recognize the person before her.Sensing her confusion, the man took a business card out of his inner suit pocket and handed it to her. "Hans Ingram from Spindler Media."Out of courtesy, Celia accepted the card and glanced at it. "Did you approach me for something?"Hans's expression was a little weird. His eyes flickered, and he finally said with a smile, "I would like to treat you to a meal.""A meal? Could you give me a reason to accept your invitation?" Celia asked, narrowing her eyes.Hans hesitated for a moment before saying, "I admire you, so I've been wanting to get to know you.""I'll take your card, but I'll pass on the meal. I kno
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 594 Are You Proposing
Celia stood still in surprise. She hadn't expected Yardley to say that.For a moment, Celia felt uncertain. She looked at Yardley and asked, "Are you proposing?""If I were proposing, would you agree?" Yardley spoke softly. Though the two were engaged, their actual wedding day seemed distant."Are you proposing in such a setting? You're not romantic at all. I won't agree," Celia said with a pout.Then, she tilted her head against Yardley's shoulder as her eyes flickered.Truth be told, Celia didn't intend to get married immediately. Perhaps she felt it wasn't the right time, or there was some other unknown reason.Yardley caught all of Celia's minute expressions and reactions. He lowered his gaze and planted a kiss on her forehead.He understood Celia well. So he was able to discern what was on her mind from her expression. He couldn't help but frown."You don't want to?"Sensing the displeasure in Yardley's tone, Celia paused for a moment. She replied, "It's not that. I jus
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 595 Ask Gramps in Person
Yardley frowned at her reaction."Gramps specifically told me about this," Celia said, standing up and smiling at Yardley. Then, she added, "We should sleep separately for a while."Looking puzzled, Yardley asked in a deep voice, "What did your grandfather say to you?""He said to take care of your health." Celia was quite subtle in her words, but her sly gaze had already shifted to a certain place.Yardley raised a brow as Celia turned around to leave. He pulled her back into his arms using the hand that was on her waist."Take care of my health?" There was a hint of danger in Yardley's voice. "Which part should I be taking care of exactly?" His warm breath spread on Celia's ear, making her move her neck away from him involuntarily."Ahem … You should ask Gramps about that in person," Celia replied. She wanted to break free and get up, but Yardley held her tightly."Let go." Celia put her hand on the back of Yardley's hand.But in the next moment, Yardley lifted her
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 596 Unresolved Issue
Norman woke up at that precise moment. He opened his eyes and looked at the person beside him, only to discover that it was Darlene.He hurriedly wrapped himself in a blanket when he realized the both of them were naked. He then glared at Darlene. "What did you do to me last night?"Darlene, who was still groggy, stared back at him blankly before gradually regaining her composure.Then, she burst into tears in an instant. "You were so drunk last night, and I wanted to take you home. But you kept saying you were going to throw up. I couldn't let you do so in the driver's car. "So we ended up at a nearby hotel. I thought I'd drive you home after you'd thrown up. However, you dragged me onto the bed …"Darlene stopped talking, but Norman had already filled in the blanks in his mind.He couldn't remember a single thing from the previous night as he carefully recalled it. He only remembered passing out on the table before everything went black.He couldn't tell whether Darlene was t
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 597 Stuck Between a Rock and a Hard Place
Nicole felt annoyed as soon as she heard Norman's name. She looked at Celia, wanting to tell her what happened that morning, but she was afraid Celia would reprimand Norman. Hence, she decided to keep it to herself."Oh, it's nothing. I'm just a little tired, so I can't concentrate. All I need is a good night's sleep."Celia didn't press further when she heard that. She simply advised Nicole to take better care of herself. However, she kept an eye on her as she left. She walked into the living room and headed toward the balcony. Lowering her voice, she asked with a frown, "What's going on between you and Nicole, Norman? Why does she look so down? Did you do something to upset her?"Norman also had a lot on his mind. He was just as confused after hearing Celia's words. He shook his head in bewilderment and said, "I have no idea what's going on either. Nicole has been unhappy ever since I got home today. She wouldn't say anything when I asked her what was wrong."Celia sighed
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 598 Escape From the Wrap Party
Nicole walked aimlessly down the street and touched her stomach, wondering if keeping the baby was the right decision. If it hadn't been for the baby, she would have returned to Padea long ago and continued to do the work she loved by helping Celia manage Leo's design studio. But now she was stuck at Lorimer Residence, where she was being treated poorly every day.Nicole didn't want to go through another day like this.However, she wasn't sure where she could go.Her phone rang just as she was feeling extremely depressed. It was an unknown number.Nicole hesitated for a moment before answering the call."Hello, who's this?" she asked.Silence ensued on the other end of the line.Her heart skipped a beat. A strange feeling welled up within her.It was Henry.Nicole had a feeling it was Henry on the other end of the line!"Is that you, Henry?" Her voice was shaking slightly.But she received no response.Silence ensued for what seemed like an eternity, until her phone ran

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.
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 906 Baby Boy
"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
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 905 Fragile Babies
Sophie had failed to get Celia's forgiveness. So, she had no choice but to pin all her hopes on Morgan.She took all the supplements to Morgan's apartment. Richard was staying there with her.Ever since the incident with Celia, Sophie's relationship with Richard had become very strained. 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
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 903 Difficult Labor
"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
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 902 Malicious Woman
"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
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 901 Let's Break Up
"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

"It's fine. You two can go if you have something else to attend to," Jessica said.Soon, Celia arrived at the Blacks' residence with Jessica and Darby.Sophie opened the door and was surprised to see Celia standing at the doorstep with Jessica and Darby. 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

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. 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. Hence, Morgan said, "Celia isn't seeing anyone today. Please come back another time."To Morgan's surprise, her words ignited the anger that Quinn had been suppressing in her heart. The two quickly started arguing.Celia listened to their argument from her room. She regretted asking Morgan to handle Quinn. She had expected that Quinn would come looking for her
