It was no surprise that she and Nicole couldn't see eye to eye. It was clear that the two came from different worlds.

Clarissa felt that a family of businessmen like the Yandells didn't measure up to Norman. Darlene, on the other hand, came from a family that had made it big in the film and television industry.

Even though she wasn't extremely rich, she was at least in Norman's league and could help his career.

The white sedan pulled up outside the residential complex. Clarissa got out of the car and went straight to the Yandell residence's door.

Nicole had just lulled Jenna to sleep and was about to set her down when she heard someone knocking on their door.

"Who is it?" grumbled Fantine, who was elbow-deep in cleaning the kitchen.

Gregory, who was helping out in the kitchen, also looked up at the door.

Nicole thought it was Norman and that he might have forgotten to say something important when he left earlier. Hence, she decided to answer the door herself so as not to a

He had left his phone in the car and missed Clarissa's call. Seeing that she wasn't able to reach Norman, Clarissa couldn't help but think that he was useless.She headed to the hospital and found that she didn't have any serious injuries after the examination. So, she got her bruises disinfected and bandaged. With a swollen face, she left the consultation room and took the elevator to Darlene's hospital room.Darlene was dumbstruck when Clarissa pushed the door open and walked in. She couldn't believe that the woman in front of her was Clarissa.She was visibly shaken and hastily sat up in bed. "What on earth happened to your face, Mrs. Lorimer?" Feeling ashamed, Clarissa didn't respond right away. Instead, she closed

    The streets were deserted at 1:00 am. There was hardly a soul in sight; only a few vehicles zoomed by."Please, someone help!" Nicole cried out desperately as she held her feverish daughter and dashed down the road, hoping that someone would come to their aid. Unfortunately, none of the passing cars stopped, even after she had run for several blocks. Meanwhile, the bikers had already caught up with Nicole. When they noticed how out of breath Nicole was, they were in no rush to attack."Damn, you're in good shape! I can't believe you can still run with a baby in your arms.""Were you a track star or something? Why don't we race and see if you can outrun a motorcycle?""I'd advise you to save your energy. It'd be easier if you just gave up now."The bikers teased Nicole, planning to wear her out before making a move. Just then, out of nowhere, a taxi veered off its course, darted through the flower beds, and straight into the sidewalk.The screech of brakes tore through

    Nicole looked lost as she sat on the bench. All of a sudden, Henry's comforting voice sounded beside her. "Don't worry. Jenna's going to be okay."Nicole snapped out of her daze and looked up at him with a grateful smile. "You saved us back there, and I haven't even properly thanked you yet."Henry's eyes were filled with worry as he noticed her exhaustion. "It's the least I could do. You don't have to thank me."Nicole was at a loss for words when she heard that. All she could do was nod and focus on Jenna. As the pair were chatting idly, Gregory and Fantine were soon wheeled out of the operating room."Mom, Dad!" Nicole rushed up to greet them with Jenna in her arms.The surgery was a success. The middle-aged couple needed to stay in the hospital for treatment after their bones were properly set.Nicole took a moment to console Fantine and Gregory after they had settled into their hospital room. Then, she took Jenna downstairs to complete the admission procedures.When sh

    Meanwhile, Richard had been showing up at Starlight Entertainment and going on about all the details of the collaboration ever since Celia had mentioned the possibility of working together. Celia couldn't take it anymore, so she threw in the towel and agreed to everything. Richard then returned home."How did it go, Richard? Did you seal the deal on the collaboration?" Sophie and Chester inquired as soon as he got home.Richard thought it would be funny to play a prank on them, so he put on a long face and didn't give them a straight answer.Sophie and Chester immediately jumped to conclusions and thought Celia had refused to collaborate with them. Chester walked up to Richard, gave him a pat on the shoulder, and said encouragingly, "It's alright, son. It's not the end of the world. There'll always be other opportunities. We'll just have to give it our all next time." Richard was laughing his head off on the inside because he had already closed the deal. He was just messing

    As for Chester, Sophie decided to explain everything to him when the moment arose. She was sure that he would understand.Sophie couldn't help but smile as she thought of Richard's bright future.She wasted no time seeking him out after her spat with Chester."What's wrong, Mom? Why were you in such a hurry to see me?" Richard asked, perplexed.Sophie was usually calm and composed; she had never been one to panic or rush. He couldn't understand what had gotten her so worked up all of a sudden.Since this had never happened before, Richard couldn't help but feel nervous. Sophie rushed up to Richard, gasping for breath. "It's nothing. I just tend to worry too much," she said with a smile.Richard was at a loss. He couldn't figure out what Sophie was getting at. So, he blurted out, "Why have you come looking for me, Mom? If there's something on your mind, just spill it."For a moment, he wasn't sure what to do when he looked at his mother's beaming face.

    Meanwhile, Morgan's drama shooting had just wrapped. The crew bought her a bouquet and took a picture with her to commemorate the occasion. Morgan and Emma were chatting among themselves and were about to leave when the director and the assistant director walked over.The director's clothes were wrinkled, and it obviously hadn't seen the inside of a washing machine in days, but he didn't seem to mind. "Morgan, are you busy?" he asked. Morgan was puzzled. "No, not really. What's up?"The director cleared his throat. "Oh, nothing much. We were planning to have a wrap party since we've finished filming. Care to join us?" He was a little nervous. After all, Morgan was a star, and her time was valuable. He couldn't force her if she had something to do and couldn't attend. Still, it was just a pity since everyone had been working together for so long but had never eaten together at a nice restaurant. The boxed lunches didn't count.Morgan couldn't decide on her own. "Would it b

    Sophie's breathing became labored. Richard was already so protective of Morgan when they hadn't even married yet. Sophie couldn't imagine what would become of her if they actually tied the knot.Morgan staggered behind Richard. She hadn't expected Sophie to detest her this much.Richard hadn't expected Sophie to say that in public. Morgan's pallid complexion tugged at his heartstrings. On the one hand, Morgan was the woman he loved. On the other hand, Sophie was his mother. He couldn't be rude to Sophie. So, all he could do was wrap his arms around Morgan and whisk her away.However, Sophie wasn't about to let them slip away so easily. Her expression hardened when she noticed Richard attempting to take Morgan away. "Ms. Schuman is still waiting for you to escort her home. Did your father and I teach you to be so rude to our guests?"Then, she sneered, "As for Ms. Larson, since she could make it here on her own, I'm pretty sure she can find her own way out."

    Morgan also realized it was inappropriate to break down in public. Fortunately, Richard wasn't there. She took a moment to gather herself and decided to stop crying.Emma handed her a wet tissue. "Here, wipe your face. You look like a little raccoon."Morgan pulled out a small mirror from her bag and looked at herself. Then, she winced at her reflection.She was tucked away in a corner, facing a wall, and Emma was blocking the other side. So, she could touch up her makeup in peace.She wiped her face clean with the wet tissue before applying light makeup. Then, she straightened her hair and turned to Emma. "Do I look presentable, Emma?"Emma nodded in satisfaction. "As long as you don't sniff, you're fine."The wrap party lasted until 10:00 pm. Morgan and Emma left from the back after everyone else had almost left.Morgan noticed Zach standing by the door as soon as she stepped out.Puzzled, she asked, "Are you waiting for someone, Mr. West? Everyone has almost left."He

    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. 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?

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?"
