Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 660 Painting Competition
Celia wasn't pretending to be mysterious earlier. She had been brainstorming. After all, she wanted to make a splash. An hour went by in the blink of an eye. Sylvia had finished her painting a while ago, while Celia set her brush down at the last second. Then, the two displayed their paintings."There's a box in the middle of the paintings. Everyone has two pieces of paper in their hands. "Sylvia's artwork is on the left. Please cast your vote in the left box if you like it. Celia's artwork is on the right. Please cast your vote in the box on the right if you like it," said the hostess.People began voting as soon as she said that. Sylvia was confident after receiving both the first and second votes. She couldn't help but smile. However, Celia received the majority of the subsequent votes.Sylvia suffered a crushing defeat in the competition, but she refused to accept it. She intended to find someone else to challenge Celia, and Nona Kirby was the person she had in mind.No

Nona took the initiative and said, "Celia had just competed not once, but twice flawlessly. Our competition even ended in a tie. This shows that she's extremely talented."Then, she smiled at Celia. This silenced everyone. No one looked down their noses at Celia after Nona said that.The onlookers began to suspect that something wasn't right after Nona made the first move to befriend Celia."I knew it! How could your competition with Nona end with a draw? You're just riding on her coattails and putting on a show here!" said someone in the crowd, but it elicited unanimous agreement from those present.Otherwise, how could someone as unrefined as Celia have gotten into this gathering?Everyone was aware that Celia was nothing more than a country bumpkin. The fact that she could go toe-to-toe with Nona was probably because Nona was deliberately taking it easy on her."Enough is enough."Celia's gaze was icy, and she felt helpless in the face of these people's baseless suspicions.

The crowd refused to give up and were still all smiles."Enough already! I'm sick and tired of seeing all of your hypocritical faces. Stop hovering around me." Celia immediately drove everyone away, rendering those around her speechless.Her words had stung their pride and left them embarrassed."Can't you just let it go? This won't turn out well in the long run." Just then, Nona spoke up from the sidelines. Celia's attitude had been less than ideal. As Jacob's apprentice, she should have set a better example."You should lead by example since you're Jacob's apprentice now. How are you any different from them right now?"Celia's expression darkened as soon as she heard that."What's the difference? These people were clearly bullying me earlier, and now they're acting all respectful because of my status. Would they still treat me this way if Mr. Dawson hadn't spoken up for me?"Celia's blunt comment made Nona feel a little embarrassed."You should still be more mindful. Times

"Your feelings are completely bogus." Celia felt repulsed. She shook Noah's hand off and left. "I'll get you breakfast tomorrow. Remember to eat it." Noah called out from behind her. That just made her feel even more disgusted.…Yannis went up to Yardley anxiously, with a document in hand, as soon as he got to the office. He looked very nervous. "What's wrong?" Yardley asked with a frown. Yannis had been working for him for many years. He had always been mature and composed. Seeing how anxious he was, Yardley knew something bad must have happened. "Mr. Hughes, several of our clients called and wanted to terminate their partnership with us. These clients have been with us for a long time. If they break off now, we'll suffer heavy losses."Yannis handed Yardley the document he was holding. The clients were willing to pay the hefty penalties for the breach of contract to terminate their partnerships. "What's going on?"These people definitely didn't do something like th

Patrick didn't let up either. He started to make moves against Yardley. The two companies started to take up all the resources available. Their competition was soon elevated even more. After a week, the battle was still going on. Yardley had a frown on his face as he was sitting in his office. He was brainstorming tactics. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Yardley thought it was his secretary bringing him updates. He called out for her to come in, but Jasmine was the one who entered the office instead. Yardley became visibly upset as he looked at her. Jasmine had dolled herself up. She was wearing a yellow dress and a plain hairband. Her style resembled Celia's. Yardley was already in an irritable mood this time. Although Jasmine had come prepared and had even imitated Celia's style, she wasn't Celia. "Why are you here?"Thinking about what happened in the office last time, Yardley was already on guard against Jasmine. "I heard that the company is in a pinch, so I cam
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 665 Confronting Paul
Celia sneered while scrutinizing Jasmine. "Fortunately, he fell for me. If he had fallen for you, he would have definitely regretted it."The employees surrounding them looked at each other in bewilderment. They hadn't expected Celia to come to the office and confront Jasmine. The employees couldn't afford to get on either woman's bad side. So they didn't try to talk them down. Some of the employees took pictures of the confrontation and posted them online. This incident quickly garnered a lot of attention. After all, Jasmine was a Silva. She had always been beloved by everyone around her.Some people with ulterior motives also took notice of the incident because Celia was the daughter-in-law of the Hughes family. The Silva family quickly caught wind of the incident. Jasmine was one of them, so they naturally sided with her. When Jasmine's father, Paul Silva, got wind of it, his gaze grew vicious.He was enraged when he saw what Celia had said and done to Jasmine. That wom

Unexpectedly, Paul refused to give in. From behind, Celia clicked her tongue, thinking it was no wonder Jasmine did whatever she wanted. It was all because she had a wealthy father who cleaned up her mess every time."From my understanding, it was your daughter who made the first move," said Ben, raising an eyebrow. He had come prepared after understanding the whole situation."I believe you aren't a narrow-minded person, Mr. Silva. Let's let this matter slide," he added.Paul was unwilling to accept it, but he didn't want to directly confront the two men before him, seeing that they were both prominent figures. Eventually, he gave Celia a fierce glare before leaving.Seeing Paul leave, Celia slowly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at her two mentors. "Thank you, Mr. Giles and Mr. Dawson," said Celia.…Ashley had just finished work and arrived home. Dragging her exhausted body, she was opening the door when she ran into Sylvia. Acting all high and mighty, Sylvia reached

"Of course. Wipe away your tears and nose, and come out with me," said Celia.She handed a few tissues to Ashley, who did what she was told. After a while, she followed Celia outside."Mrs. Payne, I heard about what happened just now. I want to apologize on behalf of Ashley," Celia stated politely with a glowing smile."Oh no, why would you say that?" Amy replied, taken aback. "You're Ashley's boss, and we should be thanking you instead.""Mom, why are you behaving like that?" interrupted Sylvia. A little displeased, she tugged at Amy's collar, only to be glared back at."Since you put it that way, let me express my opinion," said Celia with a stern face, and Amy urged her to continue. "In today's society, for a newbie like Ashley, it's crucial to establish a stable foundation in the industry. And money is a person's best weapon."Celia's words made a lot of sense, which led to Amy nodding in agreement.Celia continued, "Almost everyone nowadays has an awareness of saving mone

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."

"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?"

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?

"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?"
