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

    The sloppy kiss made Richard frown as Morgan was drunk. He raised his hand and gently pressed her shoulder, but she took the lead and threw herself into Richard's arms. "Morgan …" Richard let out a soft grunt. He wanted Morgan to calm down.The atmosphere around them became charged. Morgan's cheeks turned crimson as things got heated. She looked at Richard with desire in her eyes.Richard's breath caught in his throat. He looked at her with a dangerous glint in his eyes as he said huskily, "Morgan, you're drunk."However, her eyes crinkled as she reached out and yanked on his collar, bringing him closer to her. "I'm not."Morgan ran her fingers along Richard's neck over his expensive, black shirt, her slender fingers descending slowly and sensuously."Do you know what you're doing?" he asked as he grabbed her mischievous hand.Morgan leaned close to his ear and whispered, "I told you, Richard, I'm not drunk."Then, she gently grazed his earlobe.His gaze darkened. He reache

    Richard nodded affectionately as he looked at Morgan, who was looking at him expectantly. The couple fooled around a little longer before Rochard took Morgan to Starlight Entertainment.Emma cornered Morgan as soon as she arrived at the office's entrance. "Are you not going to focus on work now that you're in love? You lovestruck girl." Emma poked Morgan on the forehead."My bad. But it's just this once. I'm just so happy that we've wrapped up the TV show."Morgan tried to get away by acting cute, but Emma wasn't buying it. "Let's go. You have an event to attend later, and we need to get your makeup and hair done."The production team had organized a media conference to promote their new TV series this time, and all the lead actors were present. Parker was sitting on a chair, waiting to go on stage, when Morgan arrived. "Sorry, I'm late," Morgan said apologetically after she rushed to Parker's side. "It's okay. The media conference hasn't started yet. Were you unwell yester

    Besides, Celia had a feeling that these things weren't targeted at Morgan.But the most pressing issue at the moment was dealing with the media.Celia remembered the mysterious smile on Willow's face when she had been taken away at Otto's birthday party.She thought of something and immediately called Yardley.However, for some reason, he didn't answer right away.Just then, Morgan and Emma rushed back to the company and immediately entered Celia's office."Ms. Stanton." Both their expressions were grim. Emma held Morgan's wrist and brought her forward.Celia looked up and said softly, "Please, have a seat. I've already asked someone to handle the press conference. Don't worry, there won't be any problems.""Ms. Stanton, I can't help but feel like something is off. How did someone like that sneak into the press conference?" Emma hurriedly asked.To be honest, Emma had been working in the entertainment industry for a long time and had seen it all. She had even experienced incid

    "Is something the matter?"Even though he wasn't sure why Celia had suddenly thought of Willow, she must have her own reasons."Don't you think the things that happened to Morgan are a bit too coincidental?" she asked softly. Initially, she hadn't associated these events with Willow. After all, she was the one Willow disliked. There was no reason for Willow to attack Morgan, who had nothing to do with her.However, she couldn't help but have some reservations when she remembered what had happened.Celia had just been wondering if Morgan had any enemies. Michael was the only person who came to mind.Michael's goal had always been Morgan. But she didn't think he could have done the kidnapping on his own. In fact, she even thought he might not be capable enough to do it.There was no way a nepobaby would have the mind to come up with such a meticulous plan.Celia was sure she wasn't overthinking. Rather, she seemed to have noticed something. Starlight Entertainment was investin

    "You told me you like acting. You like to become different people and experience different lives."Richard's voice was soothing, enveloping Morgan in its warmth."You told me you would never stop working toward that dream and eventually reach the top. But Morgan, don't you think these experiences are inevitable on your way to the top?"He gently wrapped his arms around Morgan and stroked her hair to comfort her when he felt her trembling. "The Morgan I know would never be defeated by something this small."Morgan pouted. "But I've already caused so much trouble.""If you feel guilty for such things, you should remember this day. Work harder and silence those rumors with your work. You're a celebrity, and the media is always looking for dirt on celebrities. "Won't you essentially be admitting that the rumors are true if you let them bring you down?"Morgan was a little shaken when she heard that.All of a sudden, she felt like slapping herself hard.

    Celia's brows drew together as she crossed her arms and looked down at the person before her. "What are you doing here?"Josef rotated his wrist and looked up at Celia. "I was just trying to pull a prank on you. I didn't know you would have such a strong reaction."He then held out his palm to Celia. "Oh no, I hope this isn't going to leave any lasting effects. If it does, you're going to have to take responsibility for me."Celia pursed her lips. "It's your fault for tailing me."If he hadn't spoken up on time, she might have already beaten him up."Why are you so cold to me? I'm so sad," he said pitifully.Celia spotted her car and casually asked, "Alright, what's going on?""Are you free right now?" he asked with a smile.Celia cocked her brow and cast a glance at him, wondering what he would say next.Josef smiled and pulled out a rose from his pocket. He then handed it to Celia. "Would you do me the honor of having dinner with me?"Celia didn't reach out to take the rose

    Celia had a bad feeling when she noticed his darkened expression."Is something the matter?" she asked.However, his gaze flickered slightly. Then, he shook his head and said, "It's nothing. I remembered it wrong."Of course, she believed him. So she nodded, and the two of them left the restaurant together.Celia received a call from Morgan shortly after returning home."Ms. Stanton, I've made up my mind; I'm not going to quit anymore." Morgan's voice was filled with determination. Celia wasn't too surprised when she heard that."Didn't you cry and tell me you didn't want to be in the entertainment industry anymore? Why the sudden change of mind?" Celia grinned. It wasn't as if she wanted to lose a talented actress like Morgan."Wouldn't I just be playing into those people's hands if I quit because of these baseless rumors? So I'm going to work even harder to show them that I, Morgan Larson, am not someone to be trifled with!"Morgan paused before continuing, "Besides, I have

    Yardley's brows knitted when he noticed the sudden change in Celia's gaze."Did you have a business meeting this afternoon?" she asked. Her voice was so indifferent that it gave nothing away.He nodded."With whom?" she asked once again."Mr. Gatsby from Pinnacle Ventures. Did someone say something to you?" Yardley couldn't help but ask when he noticed Celia's darkened expression."Besides Mr. Gatsby, did you meet someone else?" Celia tightened her grip on her phone as she tried to remain as calm as possible.Yardley reached out and placed his hand on her shoulder when he noticed she was upset. "What happened?"Celia turned her phone's screen toward him, revealing the picture on it.He paled as soon as he saw the photo.The photo had two people, one of whom was Yardley, and the other was Willow, who was supposed to be locked up in Xanders residence. However, that wasn't the most infuriating thing about this picture. The fact that Yardley was lying on a bed with Willow made C

    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

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

    "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

    "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.
