Chapter 1777

Author: Chweety
Jace was telling the truth, but Milo still looked at him suspiciously. "Really?"

"What else? But Father, someone just made a good point. Isn't Janet supposedly cured? Why did she suddenly have another episode?"

Milo's expression remained grim. "How would I know? Let's wait for the doctor."

The doctor arrived quickly but could not determine what had caused Janet's sudden outburst. "Based on her condition, as long as she isn't provoked, she shouldn't relapse. Did anyone agitate her?"

"No. She just lost control around 6:00 am," Jace replied, eyeing the doctor. "Are you sure there's nothing wrong?"

"Nothing at all." The doctor, who had years of experience, genuinely could not find any abnormalities. "What about the medication I prescribed?"

"Here." Milo handed over the bottle that had been placed on the nightstand. The doctor examined it briefly. "The medicine is fine. The real question is—has she been taking it regularly?"

"Of course. She takes it every day," Milo said firmly, frow

    Charles could not help but laugh. "Alright. We'll decide together after the doctor checks on you. How about that?""No!" Noelle tightened her grip on his hand. "Charlie, I had a dream… I feel like I've been asleep for so long. Don't go!""Alright, I won't go!" Charles' voice sounded choked with emotion as he held Noelle's hand tightly. "I won't leave, not ever!"He immediately picked up his phone and called Sean. "Come over right now! Nelly is awake!"Within a minute, the news of Noelle waking up had already spread to everyone. Sean arrived quickly, bringing Margaret along.After a thorough check-up, Sean finally said, "She's fine now.

    The shocking news spread like wildfire. Milo, the head of the Baker Group, had an illicit relationship with his adopted daughter, Janet, four years ago.Not only had they engaged in a secret affair, but they had also given birth to a child, only to cruelly abandon it.The scandal did not stop there. People quickly dug up an old case from years ago when Janet accused Charles of assaulting her.With the two incidents placed side by side, the public began speculating that the real perpetrator back then was not Charles, but Milo.Though this was only a theory, sometimes speculation carried more weight than the truth. The explosive news did not just shake Capiton, even Brookville was in an uproar.…Noelle had been brought back to Phoenix Tree Residence to recover. Under everyone's careful care, she was already in good health. Her daily routine now mostly consisted of eating, drinking, and occasionally exercising.Since her pregnancy had caused her weight to skyrocket, she was now ac

    "Diamond?" Noelle's eyes sparkled. "Kelly, how about we call the boy Ice and the girl Glitter? What do you think?"She held her son's tiny hand. "Ice. That's your name now. You're Mommy's little diamond!"Just as she finished speaking, the baby girl in Liliana's arms suddenly let out a loud cry. Her voice was strong and clear, making Noelle turn toward her in concern. "What's wrong?"Liliana chuckled. "She's probably jealous!"Noelle was momentarily stunned before she found herself laughing too. "She's already learning to be jealous at this age?"Even as she spoke, she reached out to take her daughter from Liliana's arms. "Glitter, Mommy's little darling. Are you upset because I called your brother first?"As soon as Noelle held her, Glitter immediately stopped crying. She blinked up at her mother, her bright eyes twinkling like tiny gems.Noelle's heart melted. "Babies grow so fast. They change every day!"She had not even been out of the hospital for long, yet the twins alrea

    Noelle let out a startled yelp and instinctively wrapped her arms around Charles' neck. "What are you doing? You nearly scared me to death!"Charles only chuckled, his lips curling into a faint smile. He held her waist and gave it a gentle squeeze. "How could I ever bear to do that?"Noelle huffed, "Smooth talker!"Though she pretended to be annoyed, a blush still crept onto her cheeks. "I was asking you something serious. Was it really you?""Yeah."Charles did not deny it. "What about it?"Noelle shook her head. "I just didn't expect you to go after the Bakers so suddenly."She had thought that because Clarisse was part of the Bakers, Charles might show some restraint toward Milo. But clearly, he had not.Charles remained silent for a moment before speaking. "You might be willing to let them go, but they refuse to let themselves go. That's not my fault."His tone was cold, devoid of any emotion. The moment Noelle heard it, she knew that either Milo or Janet must have pushed

    "The boy is named Ice, like a diamond. The girl is Glitter, which shines brightly. Do you like it?" Noelle's eyes sparkled as they fixed intently on Charles.A soft light appeared in Charles' deep gaze. It slowly turned more intense as he looked at Noelle. He reached out, tilted her chin, and leaned in closer, his eyes locking on her flushed, rosy cheeks. "Mhm… I like them."Just like Noelle herself, always so glittery and radiant, as dazzling as a diamond."I think they sound great too!" Noelle beamed, reaching up to touch Charles' face. "Then what do you think their full names should be?""I've already thought of them.""Really?" Noelle was surprised. "That fast?""Yes."Before she could react, Charles lifted her into his arms. Instinctively, she wrapped her arms around his neck, her legs clinging to his waist. "Charlie, am I too heavy?""Not at all. You're light."Though she had gained some weight since giving birth, Charles thought it was perfect. She was softer now, mor

    Autumn had painted Brookville in shades of gold and crimson when Noelle Shaw stepped off the plane. She grabbed her suitcase and walked out into the crisp air, a familiar sense of home wrapping around her.A whole year had passed since she left to pursue a corporate training program overseas, and now, she was back just in time.Her third anniversary with her boyfriend Xavier Harris was just days away, and she had been working nonstop to make it back early enough to surprise him.She hailed a cab and headed straight for Xavier's office. The moment she walked through the front doors, Alice, the receptionist, gave her a look of total shock. "Ms. Shaw? You’re back? Are you here for the CEO's engagement party?"Noelle's brow creased in confusion. "The CEO's engagement party? What are you talking about, Alice?""It's Mr. Harris's engagement party with your sister!""What?" Noelle's heart skipped a beat, and the happiness drained from her face. "Whose engagement party?"Alice seemed to

    Noelle bolted from the hotel, her previously defiant face now streaked with tears.Out of nowhere, a black Cayenne screeched to a halt, its tires screaming against the pavement. Caught off guard, she tumbled to the ground.The driver gulped, his eyes darting to the man in the back seat, "Sir... Sir?"The man in the back, unfazed by the nearby accident, merely glanced at the passenger seat beside him. "Ronald, go see what happened.""Right away, sir." Ronald was out of the car in a flash, checking the front for any damage.About six feet ahead of the car, a woman sat on the ground with her eyes wide open, looking totally freaked out. Her cheeks were streaked with tears, and she had obviously been crying. "Miss? Are you okay? Do you need a ride to the hospital?"Noelle was scared out of her wits. She just gazed at Ronald, lost in shock, until she finally managed to pull herself together and stand up. Without a word, she tried to sidestep him, eager to get away.Ronald was puzzled

    Trapped in the man's grip, Noelle struggled to break free, her body refusing to cooperate. Her vision was blurry as she glared at him. "What are you trying to do?""Just having a bit of fun..." He chuckled, his voice dripping with sleaze as he steadied her. "Let's go somewhere more entertaining, shall we?"Noelle might have been out of it, but she could still sense the danger in the man's tone. However, her whole body ached, and she knew she was no match for them. She scanned the area for anyone who could help her, but she was invisible to the passersby.She spotted a figure approaching through her haze. Acting instinctively, she shoved the two men aside and bolted, slamming right into the newcomer. "Save me!" she gasped.Her fingers dug into the fabric of the man's shirt, and she inhaled a sharp, clean scent. "Please, save me," she pleaded.Charles squinted, taking in the woman who had just collided with him. There was a flicker of something sharp in his gaze.Noelle did not let

    Janet lost her mind again, this time without any resistance. Early the next morning, a piercing scream shattered the quiet dawn before the sun had even risen. It came from Janet's room.Since Jace's room was also on the third floor, he was the first to arrive while the rest of the Bakers were still deep in sleep.The woman who had appeared composed and elegant just yesterday now looked completely deranged. Janet shrieked hysterically as her face twisted with madness. It was more terrifying than any of her previous episodes.Jace was surprised by the methods of the young man who had claimed to be a doctor. He had not expected that just a few needles would be enough to push Janet over the edge.He did not approach her. He simply stood there, watching with cold detachment.Soon, the servants arrived, and Milo followed shortly after. It was not long before nearly all the Bakers had gathered. Seeing Janet's crazed state, they did not seem particularly shocked, but their frustration was

    Liliana never expected to run into Sean when she visited the babies. She nearly turned on her heel and left, but Sean was not about to let her walk away that easily.The moment he spotted her, Sean reached out and clasped her wrist. "Liliana!"Liliana froze, her eyes darting to Sean's hand on her arm. "Let go!" she demanded through clenched teeth.Sean's hand tensed, and he looked a bit embarrassed. "I... Did you come to see the babies too?" He was at a loss for words and blurted out the first thing that came to mind.Liliana's face went white, but she held back her feelings. "What? I'm not allowed to visit?""No, that's not it, Liliana. You know I didn't mean that. I just..." He wanted to talk to her.Liliana seemed distant as if she were a thousand miles away. Sean struggled to find the right words. “Charles mentioned that you know Saxon?”Hearing that, Liliana turned back around, her icy gaze fixed on Sean. A faint, indifferent smile adorned her lips. "Why do you care?""Lil

    "Ms. Holt, Mr. Hoffman and Mrs. Hoffman are at the hospital," a servant informed them."The hospital? What happened?" Linda stood up quickly, but Saxon's piercing gaze made her sit back down. "They're having babies," Saxon said simply and started his meal.Linda was about to say something, but she noticed Saxon did not seem to care. So, she kept quiet.She wondered if something had gone wrong with Noelle's delivery. Remembering what was in that package before, Linda's eyes grew distant. Someone was still trying to hurt Noelle.Linda chewed thoughtfully on a pie as she stared at Saxon. "Did you save Noelle?" she asked.Saxon just gave her a quick look and stayed quiet. Linda figured Noelle was okay then and started to eat her meal with relief.Sean was not feeling so calm. He rushed to the hospital as soon as his plane landed. After learning about Noelle, he visited her first. She had not woken up yet, but Charles assured him that the poison was gone and the babies were born safe
