"Open it." Yardley smiled faintly. His voice had an unusual hint of tenderness.Celia opened the Thermos warily. The aroma of the food immediately wafted out—they were all her favorite dishes. "Where did you buy these from?" She breathed in deeply. She'd been so caught up in her work earlier that she'd completely forgotten about dinner. The smell of the food had awakened her appetite, and her stomach rumbled.Yardley glanced at her and said, "I made them." He knew she would've forgotten all about dinner after throwing herself into her work, so he'd headed home to cook dinner for her before bringing it to her.Celia's heart filled with warmth. She smiled and said, "Thanks!""Give them a go." He sat down beside her and watched as she dug in, his lips subconsciously curving into a tender smile."They taste pretty good," Celia praised while nodding. At this moment, her phone rang. It was Parker. Yardley's expression immediately darkened when he saw this. She glanced at him, then ignor

"Of course not!" Celia shoved Yardley away and said resolutely, "I already made myself clear when we were at the old Hughes estate. I'm not Candy, nor am I her replacement!"A trace of defeat flashed in Yardley's eyes as he nodded emotionlessly. "Let's head home."At the Charming Creatures Bar, Bruce had invited a few friends for drinks at the bar's private room. Annie followed him there and strode into the private room. "Bruce."He frowned slightly. "What are you doing here?""Why have you been avoiding me for the past few days?" She sat beside him, looking aggrieved. "You haven't been answering my calls, and you're always out when I try to catch you at the hotel.""We've already broken up," he said coldly."Don't do this, Bruce. Are you really gonna be this heartless?" She leaned into him, refusing to accept this. "Have you forgotten how happy we used to be? You said you'd love me for the rest of your life. You can't do this to me!"He pushed her away impatiently. "I'll say th

This was an exciting moment. Everyone waited expectantly for the press conference to start. Celia strode onstage confidently and announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to wish you a good afternoon. Welcome to Hughes Inc.'s press conference for the launch of 'Flames of Ice'!"The guests applauded. Below the stage, a trace of jealousy flashed in Willow's eyes as she saw Celia carry herself with poise and elegance. Willow had pestered her brother to bring her to the press conference today, waiting for a chance to take Celia down at the celebratory party that night. Celia was in for it tonight!Onstage, Celia continued, "The 'Flames of Ice' series is Hughes Inc.'s flagship jewelry launch for the third quarter, and the main inspiration for the design is per its namesake—flames of ice. I'm sure you're all curious to know what that means, so let's take a look at the promotional video. You'll immediately understand what I mean." She gestured for one of the employees to play the video.I

The woman's voice drew everyone's attention to the entrance of the conference hall. Their eyes landed on a foreign woman with fair skin, defined facial features, and curly hair. She was dressed in a professional suit and high heels. Celia's eyes narrowed slightly as her gaze fell on the woman. If she remembered correctly, this woman was Marilyn Moreau. Marilyn was the chief designer hired by Infatuation Jewelry Co. and the designer of the Whimsicality line.Marilyn confidently strode forward in high heels. She stepped up on the stage and took the microphone from a nearby reporter.Then, she declared loudly, "Just a moment ago, Ms. Stanton claimed that Infatuation plagiarized Hughes Inc. That is complete slander! Infatuation has never plagiarized anyone, including Hughes Inc.!"Her words caused quite a stir. Everyone in the room began to whisper animatedly among themselves. The reporters were also on the edge of their seats. They hadn't expected the press conference today to

Marilyn's expression hardened. She angrily retorted, "Ms. Stanton, you are slandering me! I'll call the cops if Hughes Inc. doesn't apologize to me!" "Go ahead." Celia pursed her lips and smiled wryly. "You should call the cops since you're the one who plagiarized."The reporter on the side caught on and hurriedly asked, "Ms. Stanton, do you have any evidence to prove that Ms. Moreau plagiarized?""That's right, Ms. Stanton. Could you please tell us why you believe Ms. Moreau is the one guilty of plagiarism?" "Gladly!" Celia glanced at Marilyn coldly before continuing, "I don't know where you copied it from, Ms. Moreau. You should know that it was Leo's idea to have the jewelry change colors under different lights!"Everyone's jaw dropped when Celia mentioned Leo's name. Leo was a globally renowned and enigmatic fashion designer! No one had ever seen her before. Everyone was curious as to whether Leo was the true originator of this concept. How did Celia know that it was

"What do you mean by that?" Marilyn's already gloomy expression became worse.Yardley's brows scrunched up slightly, and his eyes darkened. "Aside from being able to change colors under the lights, Whimsicality has several other similarities to Flames of Ice. That's because you took Celia's sketches, modified them, and turned them into Whimsicality."Faced with Yardley's imposing presence, Marilyn couldn't help but shudder. Taking a few deep breaths, she forced herself to calm down. "Do you have any evidence to back up your claims?"Yardley's piercing gaze swept over Marilyn. His voice was ice-cold as he said, "Joseph Hines has confessed that he stole Celia's design and sold it to you."Joseph Hines? Celia was slightly surprised when she heard that. If she remembered correctly, Joseph was just a design assistant in the design department. He had been with the company for less than a year. Celia was perplexed to hear that this was his doing. He wasn't even involved in the Flame

Celia and Yardley stood next to each other at the entrance of the banquet hall. The revolving glass doors in front of them showed their reflection.Yardley glanced at the woman beside him. His deep gaze landed on her incredibly alluring figure. A barely perceptible glimmer of amazement shimmered in the depths of his eyes. He extended his arm, bent it slightly, and said, "Take my arm."Celia hesitated for a second before reaching out and taking his arm. She was attending the banquet as Yardley's companion that night, so this was a matter of courtesy.The corner of his lips involuntarily curled upward into a faint smile. It was rare for her to be obedient. The crowd was excited when they saw the couple walking in side by side.Yardley's tailored, fitting black suit showed off his impeccable physique. He became the center of attention as soon as he appeared.Celia was equally radiant. She was dressed in a white gown that outlined her graceful figure. Her demeanor exuded elega

Yardley walked toward Celia after he said that. He extended his large hand to her and nodded before asking, "May I?"Celia was enthralled by the man in front of her. There was no way she could refuse Yardley's invitation in front of everyone."Of course." Celia smiled politely and extended her small hand gracefully, placing it in Yardley's palm.He led her toward the dance floor. The couple danced gracefully in the center of the dance floor as mellow music played. Although it was their first time dancing together, they moved in perfect harmony, almost as if they had been dance partners for years.Yardley lowered his head, his deep gaze landing on Celia's face. He asked indifferently, "Don't we seem to be in sync, Celia?"She nodded. "Yeah, we're alright. We should be able to dance better if you slow down a little."He pressed his thin lips against her ear and whispered, "That's not what I meant."Celia's cheeks burned as his warm breath brushed against her skin.It was undeni

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
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. Hence, Morgan said, "Celia isn't seeing anyone today. Please come back another time."To Morgan's surprise, her words ignited the anger that Quinn had been suppressing in her heart. The two quickly started arguing.Celia listened to their argument from her room. She regretted asking Morgan to handle Quinn. She had expected that Quinn would come looking for her
