Celia felt a little tired as she read the comments on the internet in her office.

Serena would post cryptic comments on Twitter every day, and she couldn't respond to every one of them without coming across as intolerant on behalf of the Hughes family.

Celia pursed her lips as she glanced at the data online, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, Jocelyn had been diligently studying Serena's tweets after learning the news online. Even though the video didn't reveal the man's face, his physique and silhouette bore an uncanny resemblance to Yardley.

All of a sudden, she noticed something amiss in the video. Jocelyn fast-forwarded it to one minute and forty seconds, and there it was—the man's wristwatch looked oddly familiar.

Jocelyn was startled by this revelation. She had only met Yardley a few times. How could the wristwatch on his hand look so familiar?

Her expression instantly darkened because she appeared to have seen that particular watch on someone else's wrist.

Jocelyn felt a dull

    Celia booted up Twitter, copied the video from her phone, and edited a lengthy post after returning to the office."I sincerely apologize for clogging up your feed with all these baseless rumors in the past few days. I hope Ms. Mitchell will stop spreading rumors about the Hughes family and stop claiming a random man as Yardley.

Who else could it be at the café besides me?"Her gaze turned cold. "I'm talking about the one in the hotel."Troy stiffened.

    The family physician's words made Yardley frown."Crippling anxiety?"He reflected on the events of the past few days. Celia had been quite busy dealing with Serena and Noah. It seemed that the past few days had really taken a toll on her.Yardley looked at the unconscious Celia worriedly. "I gave Mrs. Hughes a sedative shot, but we need to keep an eye on her. Sudden fainting spells are tricky to deal with. It would be best to take her to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow."Yardley nodded. Then, he sent the family physician on his way.…Celia still hadn't woken up the next morning. Yardley gently shook her, but she showed no signs of waking.It seemed like she was truly exhausted.But how could her condition have deteriorated so unexpectedly?

Yardley rushed up to her and gently stroked her forehead when he noticed she was awake. "How are you feeling? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?""I'm alright," she uttered in a hoarse voice. Her face was pale, and she still felt a little weak.Yardley's gaze was filled with tenderness as he pressed Celia's hand against his cheek. "I'm so, so glad you're alright.""Tell me a joke, Yardley." Celia was depressed."Huh?" Yardley was caught off guard. "Jokes come up naturally in a conversation. You can't force them.""In that case, let's just chat," she said softly, nestling in his embrace.Little did the couple know that a figure had passed by the door to their ward while they were enjoying each other

There were no newspapers or television to provide information from the outside world.She truly had been completely cut off from the world.Otto had gone to so much trouble to get her to this island and hadn't provided her with any gadgets just for her to focus on her health.

    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. 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.

    "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?"

"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?"
