Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 678 Passionate First Meeting
Inside a bar, dim lights shone upon men and women dancing against each other passionately.Nona sat alone at the bar counter, holding a bottle of alcohol tightly in her hand. She gulped it all down before any of the waiters spotted her.Tears welled up at the corners of her eyes. Gritting her teeth, she repeatedly muttered Celia's name. She wouldn't have ended up in this situation if it hadn't been for Celia.Upon thinking of Celia, Nona couldn't swallow her anger. She opened another bottle of alcohol and drank it all in one go."Miss, you can't drink like this. This alcohol is strong."A waiter finally noticed Nona and hurried over to stop her, but she pushed him away. The bottle in her hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.Nona's oil painting skills were impressive, but Celia's appearance in the art scene had overshadowed the former's artistic talents. As a result, her presence had slowly diminished.She was unwilling to accept such an outcome. Soon, she opened an

Celia glanced at Troy and turned to leave.…Meanwhile, Jocelyn was arguing with her parents at the Littles' residence."Why did you do this? I'm signed to Starlight Entertainment now. What position does this put me in?" Jocelyn looked at her parents coldly. Celia had been keeping it from her for some time now. Jocelyn would never have known that her parents had done such a thing.She found it hard to believe that they would destroy company property for their selfish desires. It infuriated her to no end."We're doing this for your own good. Starlight Entertainment keeps getting into trouble. If we don't intervene, you might end up being used and then tossed away!" Olivia advised her.Olivia had already given Celia a chance, but the latter hadn't accepted it. Olivia had gone ahead and done something like that out of desperation."Are you justifying your wrongdoings now? Do you feel you're in the right here?" Jocelyn took a deep breath as she looked at her parents in disbelief
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 680 Waking up Beside a Stranger
In a hotel room elsewhere, Nona woke up to find herself lying next to a stranger. Then, she came to realize that she was completely naked. She couldn't believe that she had slept with some man whom she didn't even know. This dealt a huge blow to her. Looking at the unfamiliar man beside her, she couldn't help but shiver.The sound of her sobs woke Zayden up. He opened his eyes and saw Nona sitting beside him, crying.Rubbing his temples, he took in the glaring sunlight streaming in from outside. He wasn't sure what to do."W-Why did you do this to me?"Nona was furious and was about to hit Zayden to vent her frustrations. But the next second, his words took her by surprise."I heard what you said last night. You hate Celia, don't you?" Zayden asked.The mention of Celia's name made Nona pause. "How do you know Celia?"She narrowed her eyes, instantly becoming cautious of the man in front of her."Don't look at me like that. Celia Stanton is also my archenemy," Zayden replied.
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 681 Unfavorable Situation
Celia widened her eyes, desperately trying to resist. However, a woman's strength was no match for trained men. Eventually, Celia gave up struggling. Instead, she decided it was better to conserve her energy for thinking instead.Thus, she forced herself to calm down. She knew she couldn't afford to panic at a time like this. She stayed quiet and thought about her next step.Celia could feel that she was put into a bag and carried away by several men. They seemed to have planned this abduction.Since that was the case, it was all the more reason for her not to panic. She guessed that their next step would be putting her in a vehicle. Once they managed to do that, it would be hard for her to escape.Without delay, Celia removed one of her earrings and pricked her fingers. She tore a small hole in the bag so that the blood from her finger would leave a trail. She hoped that by doing this, she could leave a clue for Yardley.The moment Yardley realized that she hadn't come home, he

He had rushed to Starlight Entertainment and found traces of Celia's blood not far away from the parking lot.So he had checked the surveillance footage of the highway and tracked the car that had taken Celia. Finally, it led him here.Yardley signaled to the people behind him. A few approached stealthily and took down Zayden's henchmen when the latter were briefly distracted.Upon seeing the men being subdued, Yardley relaxed a little. He entered the cabin and found two people arguing inside.Just as Zayden and Nona's argument escalated, the door of the cabin suddenly swung open.Celia squinted her eyes. Not having been exposed to bright light for a while, her eyes struggled to adjust to the sudden brightness.Nona and Zayden stood dumbfounded in their spots. "Y-Yardley!"Celia's eyes lit up as she got up with all her might. While Zayden and Nona were still frozen in their s

Just as Jasmine was going to make copies of some documents, several men from the company's top management intercepted her."Ms. Silva."A few of these executives were around Yardley's age, but in terms of appearance, they were far from his league. Jasmine scoffed at them inwardly. Yet, considering they were at the office, she didn't let her disdain show too obviously."Mr. Addler, Mr. Wilham, is there something I can assist you with?"Jasmine smiled gently, further bewitching the men."You caught my attention just by standing there."

Her colleagues gathered around her, asking, "Which of the top executives sent you lunch today?"Looking at her gossiping colleagues, Jasmine blushed. "No, this is the lunch I made for Yardley.""Oh, you're calling him by his first name. That's so intimate."Her colleagues teased her, wanting to ask more.

Whenever someone passed him, they covered their mouths and seemed to be smiling discreetly.The entire company fell into gossip mode, and many even referred to Jasmine as Mrs. Hughes.Yardley had heard the term "Mrs. Hughes" mentioned in the office several times. He thought that Celia had come to the company. But upon scanning around, he didn't see her anywhere.When Yardley returned to his office, he texted Celia: "Are you at my office?"But he didn't get a reply for a long time.

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. 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.

"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.

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?"
