Morgan was the first to rush over to Celia. She grabbed Celia's arm and asked, "Where have you been? I've missed you so much."

"I've been sick for the past two days. I'm sorry that I've made you all worry for me," Celia explained and apologized to everyone.

Everyone started to show concern for her health.

Ashley was also there. As usual, she was shy and could only smile sheepishly while standing at one side. "You've gotten thinner, Celia."

Celia touched her cheeks. Indeed, she had become much slimmer than before.

Jules came out of his office. He had been helping Celia handle company matters when she had been away. It had been overwhelming for him.

"You're finally back!"

Celia smiled as her employees chattered away while surrounding her. Since Celia's disappearance, Starlight Entertainment hadn't been this lively for some time.

"How has the company been these few days I've been away?"

"It felt like ages for us," Jules replied exaggeratedly.

Then, he elaborated on the hardships

    After Celia left, only Selena remained in the alley.Because of Freya, she couldn't move around freely now. If she did, people from Freya's side would easily track her down.Thus, these cats and dogs had become her family.Selena sat cross-legged on the ground. A small ginger cat curled up on her legs, and a little dog slept in her arms. Her life was as carefree as it could be."You lazy little thing."Selena smiled. It was a genuine smile that reached her eyes."Selena." Suddenly, a familiar voice reached her ears.The voice sounded irritable. As the footsteps drew closer, the cats and dogs scampered away. The warm and pleasant scene Celia had witnessed earlier was no more.Selena stood up, her relaxed expression turning wary."Why are you here?"The person who approached Selena was dressed beautifully—it was Freya.However, Freya wasn't as cautious and humble as she was in the office. As she stood in front of Selena, her presence exuded an air of dominance and hostility.

However, there was another matter that needed to be dealt with now.Celia's eyes focused on the information about Freya on the table. Despite searching online for the past few days, she still hadn't been able to find any information about Freya's family.It was common knowledge that the company had hired a new talent. So there must be clear and comprehensive background information on that individual. How could Jules hire someone like this?Frowning, Celia asked someone to tell Freya to see her.Soon, a knock sounded at Celia's office door. Celia calmly said, "Come in.""You wanted to see me?" Freya displayed a restrained and composed demeanor, making it hard for Celia to read her. She thought of Selena's description of Freya the other day. Freya didn't sound like someone who was introverted.But those were just a few words from others, so Celia

    Several days later, a piece of shocking news surfaced on Twitter.Several colleges had falsely taken the names of other well-known colleges. Many out-of-town students had mistaken these institutions for their desired colleges. And so, those students had happily enrolled in these fake colleges and gone there with their luggage in tow.However, this was just the beginning of the fake colleges' schemes. Once the students stepped onto the campuses, shocking events occurred one after another.In the end, the students discovered that they had entered the wrong college. But as their enrollment applications had been submitted, they couldn't withdraw. If they did that, the original colleges would reject them on the basis that they hadn't shown up.These students had put in many years of hard work to study. They endured this in silence and turned a blind eye to the misconduct of the college dean so that they could graduate.However, many kind-hearted individuals couldn't stand by and wa

    The college representative chuckled and said, "I understand. We trust your company, but we requested to have Ms. Jenkins as our spokesperson because she graduated from our institution."Celia nodded, feeling a bit regretful. "I see. I'm sorry for agreeing without checking beforehand."The other party was very reasonable. They told Celia not to feel bad about it. "It's okay. We were a bit abrupt in approaching you too. Next time, we'll establish contact through official means first.""Okay." Celia agreed. It seemed they weren't very upset, which made things easier to handle.After that conversation, both parties decided to cancel this collaboration. Once the call ended, Celia heaved a sigh. She felt a little conflicted upon missing out on this promising opportunity.Due to her absence, Starlight Entertainment had started to lag behind others. Therefore, Celia really needed exposure and more resources now. She might not come across such a good opportunity next time.She couldn'

    Diego Nash adjusted his glasses. He didn't seem the least bit flustered. "We're just doing what we're supposed to do. Isn't it stated clearly in the contract? The original company cannot interfere with any matters of the new company their trainees sign with.""That's indeed the case," Celia agreed. Then, her expression turned serious as she countered, "However, there's another clause before that: the signing company must treat everyone equally and without discrimination."Diego flipped through the contract and found the clause Celia had cited. They had exploited a loophole in the contract, only to have it used against them."Ruth Maddison is the visual of the group, so she takes the center spot. Shouldn't she have more camera time?"Celia sneered and raised an eyebrow. "Why don't you review the footage? Do the combined camera times of these two amount to even half a minute?"Celia then produced a document detailing the playback time. Diego had nothing to say to that."I want

If she revealed the truth now, she would face the consequences when she returned.Unsure about what she should do, Selena could only frown."Take your time and mull this over," Celia said.Since Selena was hesitant, Celia did not press further and left with the documents.Selena lost all interest in the cats and dogs that were playfully vying for her affection. She felt exhausted at that moment.Upon returning home, she spotted her father and mother, Wilbur Jenkins and Malia Hoult, lingering at her doorstep. Selena took a deep breath.

    Selena frowned as she wondered why Freya would call her now. After all, Freya had just criticized her openly on the Internet."Why are you calling?" Selena asked indifferently.She had done enough for the Jenkins family, so she no longer felt the need to be subservient to them.After a moment of silence on the other end, Selena became impatient. "If there's nothing, I'll hang up.""Wait." Freya stopped her. "The situation online has escalated. Maybe we should ..."She hesitated, and Selena could guess her thoughts."Are you willing to do that?" Selena raised an eyebrow. Over the years, Freya had been wary of her due to this matter, and now she was willingly bringing it up."If we don't tell the truth, both of us might be ruined," Freya said.Freya had been in the entertainment industry for a while. She was well aware of how serious things could get if this continued."Since you've agreed, I have nothing to say," Selena agreed.For her, this matter was not something that had t

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.

    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.

    "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?"

    "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.
