Jordan rose to his feet amid thunderous applause and smiled. "Thank you. Thank you all for your support!"He waved his hand, signaling for everyone to quiet down. He cleared his throat and said, "I feel deeply saddened and pained by Yardley's misfortune. However, now is not the time for sorrow. I have more important matters to attend to. "Hughes Incorporated is my father's life's work. With my father critically ill and Yardley's fate unknown, the century-old foundation of Hughes Inc. must remain steadfast. I will accept this responsibility and shoulder this heavy burden since everyone trusts me.""Mr. Lane, did Mr. Hughes Senior authorize your appointment as the next CEO of Hughes Incorporated?" a sharp-minded reporter inquired. After all, Otto had singlehandedly founded the company. As Chairman of Hughes Inc., Otto had the authority to decide who became CEO. Jordan's legitimacy would be questionable without Otto's authorization. Jordan smiled and said matter-of-factly, "Of

"Why?" Parker's gaze dimmed in an instant. He hurriedly asked, "Aren't you and Yardley in a contractual relationship? Didn't you say that you don't like him and that you'd call off your engagement to him soon? Is he forcing you?"Celia shook her head when she saw him acting so frantically. "What? Do you think there's anyone who could force me?" "Then why did you …" His face became etched with sadness.That was true. No one could force her, including Yardley. So Celia had accepted Yardley because …Celia guessed what he was thinking. She pressed her lips together and answered, "Because I've fallen in love with Yardley. So, I agreed to be with him." "N—no. That can't be!" Parker's face was full of disbelief when he heard that.Celia had made it clear that their grandfathers had merely arranged the engagement. How could she fall in love with him when she didn't have any feelings for him?"I got to know him all over again during our time in Festras," Celia explained. "He

His passionate yet domineering kiss made her face flush in an instant. Their breaths mingled. His warm, thin lips pressed against hers. Her breathing became erratic from the passionate kiss. The temperature in the living room continued to rise. Her vision began to blur. Celia heard Yardley's low, husky voice in her dazed state. "Let's get married, Celia." "Married?" She came to her senses."What did you say?"His eyes darkened, and his thin lips curled into a smile. "Marry me, Celia!" he exclaimed lovingly. Celia was rendered speechless.She had agreed to be with Yardley, but she hadn't considered getting married so soon.After all, they had only known each other for about a month. Although they had been through a near-death experience together, getting married seemed a little too soon!Moreover, she still had a lot of things to do and didn't want to get married so soon."Yardley, you're drunk. Don't spout nonsense." Celia used her hand to cover Yar

"An engagement? Okay, then." Otto gave a few hearty laughs. He then ordered the butler, "Ramsey, bring me the Eldorian calendar."Otto put on his reading glasses and took a look at the calendar. He read it thoroughly for a couple of minutes. He raised his head and looked at both Yardley and Celia. "The 18th of this month would be a good day for you to hold your engagement ceremony.""18th? Wouldn't it be too rushed?" Celia was slightly speechless. It was already the 10th of the month, and they only had eight days left. They would be in such a hurry.She didn't even have enough time to design her dress for the engagement.Yardley looked around the room with his dark eyes. His gaze eventually landed on Celia. He embraced her tightly and said coldly, "It won't be. You don't have to prepare anything. I will hold a grand engagement ceremony for you. You'll just have to be a beautiful bride."Otto nodded with satisfaction when he saw how loving Yardley and Celia looked. "It's sett

"You can't get through?" Nicole asked in shock. "Perhaps he's busy?""His phone is switched off." Celia's gaze dimmed. What was Yardley up to? He had promised to come and pick her up. So why couldn't she contact him?"Maybe his phone is dead." Nicole comforted her.Celia nodded. "Let's wait for him for a while. Maybe he'll come after he's done with work."They sat on the couch, and Celia kept her eyes fixed on the door. "Celia, don't worry. Maybe your husband just wants to surprise you."Nicole patted Celia's shoulder when she saw the latter's sullen expression. Celia nodded absentmindedly. She didn't know why, but she suddenly felt uneasy, as if she knew something bad was going to happen. She thought for a moment and called Yannis."Hi, Ms. Stanton," said Yannis over the phone. Celia pursed her lips and asked, "Is Yardley at the office?""Mr. Hughes? He didn't come to the office today," Yannis said in surprise. "Isn't he with you?""What? He didn't show up at the offi
