Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 797 Caught in the Act
That familiar figure took the elevator to the top floor.Celia followed suit.That figure was Rhea—the woman who had bought flowers for Yardley.Rhea walked right into Yardley's office. Celia didn't dare to go in, so she waited at the door. Unfortunately, the office's soundproofing was impeccable. She couldn't hear anything from outside."What brings you here?" Yardley spotted Rhea as soon as he looked up."Oh c'mon, can't an old friend drop by for a visit?" Rhea sat right across from him. "I'm sure you must've hated me after what I did to your company."Yardley snorted. "It's all water under the bridge now. After all, you are the new leader."It was only natural for a new leader to shake things up, even more so for a government official. Therefore, he had to tread carefully."You haven't changed one bit. I've gotten rid of the reporters outside. Do you want to grab a bite to eat?"Rhea was beautiful. She had a charming innocence that set her apart from Celia.The two wer

Norman received a phone call during his break on the set."Norman, are you free tonight? We'd like to invite you out for dinner." Gregory cut to the chase over the phone."Sure! I'll be there on time!"Even though he couldn't locate Nicole, he agreed to meet her parents when he learned that they had returned from out of town.Norman canceled his evening reshoot, left the set, and headed straight to the restaurant at 6:00 pm.On the way, he thought he might be able to see Nicole.Yet, as he hurriedly arrived at the restaurant, he noticed that only Nicole's parents occupied the private dining room."Why isn't Nicole here? I've been worried about her these last few days," he hurriedly asked after he greeted them and sat down.Gregory maintained a calm, or rather apathetic, demeanor when he noticed Norman's anxious disposition."My daughter's at home and doesn't want to see you. I hope you won't bother her."His words were concise, dashing Norman's hopes. Nonetheless, Norman was

Norman's expression was just as cold as his tone.Darlene nodded and inquired softly, "Can I come in? There are a few things I'd like to discuss with you."It just so happened that Norman wanted to have a one-on-one conversation with Darlene as well, so he allowed her into his bedroom.The pair sat on opposite sides of the room. Norman's demeanor remained as cold as ever."Well? Go ahead and spit it out. Let's not waste each other's time," he said apathetically, hoping Darlene would leave as soon as possible, preferably tomorrow morning.Looking into Norman's cold and indifferent eyes, she could tell he had no feelings for her. However, that didn't mean she would hand Norman over to Nicole on a silver platter.Maintaining her composure, Darlene smiled politely. "To be honest, Mrs. Lorimer isn't forcing you to do anything. She just feels sorry for me because I'm pregnant and have nowhere to go, so she took me in for a while.""Is that so?" Norman just shook his head with a smile
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 800 Not Giving Up
It was the dead of the night, and Norman was still pacing back and forth downstairs. He looked up at Nicole's room and noticed her night light was on.However, the curtains were drawn, so he couldn't see Nicole.Norman had been waiting here ever since Gregory and Fantine turned him away.Hours had slipped by, and although he was starting to feel tired, he refused to give up.Just then, his phone rang. It was a call from his mother.Clarissa's worried voice came through the phone when he answered the call. "Norman, it's almost 1:00 am. Are you still out drinking?"He had made up an excuse before leaving, so he had to stick to it now."Yeah, I'm crashing at a friend's place tonight. I'll be back in the morning," he said before hanging up the phone and continuing to wait downstairs."Perhaps I'll be able to run into Nicole when she comes out tomorrow if I keep watch here," he thought.Norman no longer felt restless and began to look forward to what might happen next at that thoug
Shh! Don't Let Him Know! Chapter 801 I Don't Want to See You
Norman's evening took a turn when he received a call from a friend, bringing the relieving news that Nicole was staying in a hotel. Without wasting time, he hastily drove to the address provided by his friend.After arriving at the hotel, Norman confirmed that Nicole was indeed staying there. He then eagerly entered the elevator."Nicole, please give me one more chance. I will sort things out with Darlene…" Norman practiced his opening line in the elevator.But he couldn't help but feel that Nicole would most likely reject him if he said that.His heart was pounding. It felt just like the first time he went on a date with Nicole.Nicole was on the phone at the moment. Her parents were urging her to come home after learning that she had checked into a hotel to avoid Norman.Nicole was torn when she realized how concerned her parents were for her. Eventually, she agreed to return home tomorrow.However, Nicole heard a knock on the door before the call ended."I have to go, Mom. I

The corridor in the hospital was quiet. Darlene craned her neck to listen to the sounds outside the ward."Mrs. Lorimer, it's been almost an hour, and Normie still hasn't arrived. Should I give him another call?"Darlene looked thoughtful. She couldn't help but feel that Norman hadn't been truthful.He had been gone for a day, and the crew told her that Norman had taken a leave of absence from the director when she called.What else could he be busy with if he wasn't on set or working on gigs? Darlene had a strong hunch that Norman had gone to find Nicole, but she pretended not to know anything in front of Clarissa.Clarissa leaned against the hospital bed and swung her legs back and forth while gesturing to Darlene. "Don't worry, let's wait a little longer. If Norman truly cares about me, he'll drop everything and rush over."Darlene nodded and turned to ask in an obsequious tone, "Mrs. Lorimer, are you thirsty? I'll go out and get you some water…"As she uttered those words,

Nicole was picked up by her parents that day, and as usual, she locked herself in her bedroom.The days leading up to the delivery were boring. Besides reading parenting books, she was constantly buying various baby supplies online.Nicole tried not to think about Norman most of the time. Instead, she focused all her attention on the soon-to-be-born baby.In the blink of an eye, it was already noon. Fantine had prepared a nutritious lunch for her daughter. She called out to Nicole before taking off her apron."Nicole, lunch is ready!" she urged from outside the bedroom door, reminding her to walk slowly.Nicole had just gotten out of bed when she heard her phone ring on the bedside table."I need to answer a call, Mom. Go ahead and eat with Dad," she said in a light-hearted tone, masking all her negative emotions.However, she noticed it was an unknown number when she picked up her phone.Nicole debated whether to answer the call. She only made up her mind when her phone rang a

Nicole was astounded. How could this be?Henry had never had a change of heart and had never forgotten her. He had always loved her.Everything he did wasn't because he didn't love her. It was because he loved her way too much.Her eyes misted over.Nicole never expected the truth about Henry's breakup with her years ago to be so cruel—it was because of her parents, whom she respected the most.Her parents looked down on Henry's background and asked him to leave her.

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?" Morgan asked. The housekeepers promptly briefed

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?"

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.
