Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 746 The Hostage
The next day, Celia woke up in the afternoon. She rubbed her eyes and found Yardley sitting right next to her on the bed.When Yardley saw Celia was up, he immediately handed her a glass of water.Celia took a sip, and soon after that, a nurse entered with a bowl of oatmeal. Surprisingly, Celia didn't whine about the hospital food this time. She just dug in without a fuss.Yardley raised an eyebrow."Why the sudden change of heart today?" he asked while running his fingers through her hair.Celia stayed silent. She kept quiet about knowing the truth because she didn't want Yardley to shoulder the blame."Nothing. I just had a random craving for it," Celia replied.Yardley nodded. "Oh, by the way, the police swung by and said to hit up the police station once you were up.""So soon?" Celia exclaimed.Originally, Yardley had no plans to tell Celia about it. But he decided to be honest with her out of the fear she might grill him with questions."Yep." He nodded and passed the

Troy spotted a car by the road. Quick as a flash, he threw Celia into the rear seat, claimed the driver's spot, and floored the gas pedal.Yardley was on Troy's tail, and the police officers rolled up in their patrol car just in the nick of time.Yardley hustled into the car, tailing Troy like there was no tomorrow."Let me go!" Celia snapped. Her hands were bound by Troy. She tumbled in the back seat as the car sped away."Sit tight, you bitch!" Troy spat out angrily as he zoomed ahead, driving like a maniac. Finally, he screeched to a stop in a dead-end alley.Troy sighed in relief when he found that the police hadn't caught up. He pulled over and tossed Celia onto a stack of firewood nearby."What're you doing?" Celia yelled.Troy brought his blood-smeared face close to Celia's and warned, "Keep your mouth shut, or I might finish you off right here."He added a throat-slitting gesture.Feeling completely powerless against Troy, Celia took a deep breath and surveyed her surr
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 748 Brought Trouble Upon Himself
"I'm okay," Celia whispered, her strength waning.Collapsing into Yardley's arms, she found solace in his unique scent."It's alright now. You're safe," Yardley reassured her. His usual frosty demeanor exuded warmth.Celia gradually succumbed to unconsciousness.Yardley brought her back to the hospital while the police escorted Troy to the police station.Troy had underestimated Yardley and was surprised by his swift moves.Yardley had hidden his true abilities for years, but for Celia's sake, he finally revealed a side of himself that no one had seen before right before the police.It seemed that Troy had truly pushed him to the brink.Troy was brought to the interrogation room, accompanied by the apprehension of all the remaining members of the hideout.While the situation had been resolved, the authorities proceeded to pass judgment on Troy.With his gun revealed to be fake, the police chose to temporarily suspend further pursuit of charges related to it.However, the dis
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 749 Little Troublemaker
Furthermore, several police officers were dispatched to the Little Group to investigate whether Troy was there and to look into the group's illegal activities.The investigation eventually led them to Jocelyn."Ms. Little."Jocelyn led the cops into her house and sat on the couch."Have you been keeping up with the news online, Ms. Little?"Her heart skipped a beat. Then, she nodded. "Yes, I have."Jocelyn was taken aback when she stumbled upon that news article. After all, she had lived in that house for over 20 years and had developed an emotional attachment to it.However, she hadn't expected Jasper to go and bail Troy out personally. It genuinely caught her off guard."Ms. Little, you seem like a reasonable person. We hope you'll cooperate with our investigation," the police officer said coldly.Jocelyn frowned. "But I severed ties with the Little family a long time ago. It's been quite a while now if I think about it."Puzzled, the cops proceeded to search online. Sure
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 750 Anxiety Disorder
"You're the troublemaker!" Celia sat up straight. Who would've thought that the Eldorian medicine she had just poured was now sitting right before her? "Oh no, look who's back again …" she brooded.Celia reluctantly pinched her nose and chugged the glass of Eldorian medicine in front of Yardley."From now on, I'll wait until you've finished your medicine before I leave for work," he said solemnly, and she immediately felt helpless."I've finished the medicine now, and I want to sleep. Go ahead and go about your day." Celia lay in bed, her eyes staring at the ceiling, her mind racing.Yardley glanced in her direction, still worried. Then, he got up and started to walk toward her.Celia drew the blanket up over her head, hiding herself beneath it. He caressed her head over the covers and planted an affectionate kiss on her forehead.Celia remained hidden beneath the covers and listened quietly as the doors closed softly. Then, she stuck her head out and looked at the few pieces o
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 751 Pretending to Be Happy
Celia slowly opened her eyes, rubbed them, and noticed Yardley approaching with breakfast.Celia glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already 9:30 am."Isn't it Monday today? Why aren't you at work?" she asked, puzzled.Yardley cocked his brow and placed the eggs benedict he was holding in front of Celia. "It doesn't matter."Her lips twitched as she thought, "Is this what it's like to be the boss?"But then again, she was also someone else's boss.Celia snapped back to reality.Her eyes instantly lit up as she looked at the eggs benedict before her.It had been a while since she had tasted the eggs benedict from that restaurant in the alley. The restaurant had always been famous. One had to wait in long lines to get a taste."When did you buy these?" she asked before she took the eggs benedict and devoured them."Who knows." Yardley smiled. His mood lifted as he watched Celia eat with much gusto.Celia looked very pure and innocent while dressed in the patient's gown an

The masseur was a woman. How could she have such slender fingers?Celia turned around and noticed that Yardley was massaging her."What on earth are you doing?" Celia blushed as the mighty CEO had become her masseur."I'm giving my wife a massage, duh?" Yardley chuckled. Then, he told Celia to relax and gave her a good massage.Celia had to admit that his technique rivaled that of a professional. Initially, Yardley was worried that Celia, who was very particular, might not be satisfied with the masseur's skill, so he secretly went to learn for a few days.In hindsight, the results were really good."Would you like to take a nap?" he whispered in Celia's ear when he noticed her eyelids struggling to stay open."Mmm …" she murmured in response. This lovey-dovey scene caused the nearby masseur to lower her head.Wasn't she supposed to be the one who gave the massage? Not only was she not needed now, but she was forced to be the third wheel here!"Then take a nap. I'll be right
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 753 Proposal
Soon, everyone returned to their respective workstation. Perhaps it was because Celia had returned, but everyone seemed to be working harder than usual.Celia called Ashley over to her office.Ashley hadn't said a word outside just now. Celia noticed she seemed a little down as well.However, she didn't confront her directly. It was clear that something had happened to Ashley during the days when she wasn't around."Ms. Stanton, you wanted to see me?" Ashley gently pushed open the door to Celia's office and walked in."Have a seat." Celia gestured to the chair in front of her desk.Ashley took a seat. Despite her best efforts to hide her emotions, Celia could see right through her."What's wrong? Why the long face?" Celia cut to the chase. There was no harm in asking her directly since they were the only two people in the office at the moment.Celia decided not to press further when she noticed Ashley's troubled expression."If anyone at the company has picked on you while I w

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.
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 906 Baby Boy
"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
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 905 Fragile Babies
Sophie had failed to get Celia's forgiveness. So, she had no choice but to pin all her hopes on Morgan.She took all the supplements to Morgan's apartment. 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. Quinn felt that Celia had snubbed her by refusing to attend.Quinn thought about it for a moment. If Celia didn't come, Yardley probably wouldn't either. If both of them didn't show up, it would be embarrassing for Quinn.So, she decided to go and find Celia.…Morgan was taking refuge at Celia's place, so she answered the door when Quinn came over."I'm here to see Celia."Celia had instructed Morgan to turn away anyone she didn't recognize, no matter who it was.
