Chapter 211 Pursue You Again

Yardley's overpowering presence enveloped the room, catching Celia off guard."It's working hours. What else should I be talking about besides work? Besides, there's nothing personal between us that's worth talking about," she responded apathetically. "Is there truly nothing left to talk about?" His deep gaze landed on Celia's face, tinged with curiosity. Celia was slightly dazed as she met his eyes. Pursing her lips, she said, "If we must discuss personal matters, I should be going for my first acupuncture session with Grandpa Hughes this afternoon. Will you be coming with me?" "Yeah." Yardley nodded.His grandfather's illness weighed heavily on his mind. He hoped that everything would go well in the afternoon and that Celia could help his grandfather recover."If there's nothing else you need me for, I'll be taking my leave." Her mind was preoccupied with the Northern Cove project. She hadn't expected the CEO of BPL to be the man she ran into at the airpo

Chapter 212 Otto Coughs up Blood

It was the afternoon in the blink of an eye. Celia checked the time after finishing her tasks; it was almost 2:30 pm. She needed to get to the hospital as soon as possible for Otto's acupuncture session. After organizing her belongings, Celia walked out of the Hughes Incorporated building. All of a sudden, a familiar Rolls-Royce pulled up right in front of her just as she was about to head toward the underground parking garage. Yardley opened the door and got out of the car. Walking up to Celia, he said, "Get in!"Reaching out, he pulled her into the passenger seat before she could respond.Celia was rendered speechless. Yardley turned to look her in the eye just as she was about to say something. "I'm entrusting my grandfather's health to you, Celia."She pursed her lips and said solemnly, "Don't worry. I'll do everything in my power to help Grandpa Hughes." Celia couldn't help but feel guilty when she thought about Otto's condition.Both of them felt a little heavy

Chapter 213 Ill Intentions

"What?" Yardley's heart skipped a beat when he heard Quinn's words. He lowered his head to see Otto's chest heaving violently, and a dark red pool of blood was starkly visible on the white sheets. "Grandpa, are you okay?" His eyes were filled with fear and nervousness. He had no idea why this was happening. Celia had just said that the acupuncture went well. He was confused as to why his grandfather had suddenly started coughing up blood."Celia, what did you do to Grandpa?" Quinn pointed at Celia and yelled, "Grandpa was perfectly fine just now, but he started coughing up blood after your acupuncture treatment! Are you trying to kill Grandpa?" Celia's expression hardened as she glanced at Otto lying on the hospital bed. "Let me take a look.""You have no right to touch Grandpa again!"Quinn stopped Celia and bellowed, "You must have ill intentions, Celia. You made Grandpa sick, and you were afraid that he would blame you when he awoke, so you tried to kill him!""

Chapter 214 Come Back to My Side

"Answer me." Yardely's tone was tense. He took another step toward Celia before abruptly extending his hands and bracing them on both sides of her body, imprisoning her. Her breath hitched in her throat as the two of them were pressed tightly together at the moment, and their posture was insinuating. Celia frowned and was just about to ask Yardley to give her some space when the elevator shook violently. The overhead light went out entirely after a few flickers, plunging them into complete darkness.Celia couldn't help but scream as the sudden onset of darkness made her feel as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss. Yardley reached out and wrapped his arms around her, his voice softening as he said, "Celia, don't be afraid." "Celia, don't be afraid … What a familiar voice. What a familiar feeling," Celia thought. She instinctively leaned against his chest in fear, and only then did her racing heart slow down. She remembered Yardley holding her and protecti

Chapter 215 A Party for Two

Parker drove until he arrived at his mountainside villa on the outskirts. "Celia, we're here." Parker stopped the car and opened the door. Celia got out of the car and followed Parker into the villa. It was very quiet inside the villa because there were only the two of them. She looked around and asked, "Parker, weren't you supposed to have a birthday party tonight? Why is it so quiet? Where is everyone else?" "There isn't anyone else. It's just the two of us." Parker turned to look her in the eyes. He only wanted to celebrate his 25th birthday with the woman he loved the most. And that woman was Celia. His intense stare made her uneasy. Celia averted her gaze. "Why didn't you invite more friends to make it livelier?""I don't like crowded gatherings," Parker stated solemnly.The garden at the villa was beautifully decorated. The pool glistened as the moonlight shone down on it. Next to the pool was a small dining table for two.He lit the candles and stared at Ce

Chapter 216 Celia Fell Into the Water

"What are you doing, Regina?" Parker rushed in front of Celia and grabbed Regina's hand.”I'm here to settle the score with this homewrecker today!" Regina glared at Celia menacingly, almost as if she had caught them in the act. The reporters brought by Regina immediately surrounded them, pointing their cameras and microphones at them, camera flashes flickering continuously. "You all witnessed that shameless bitch, Celia Stanton!" Regina raised her voice and addressed the reporters, "That bitch was obviously aware that Parker and I are engaged, but she insisted on being a homewrecker. Everyone here has seen it!" Her delicate face contorted, and her beautiful eyes were filled with jealousy. It was almost as if she wanted to burn a big hole into Celia. Regina had loved Parker since she was a child. She fell in love with this handsome and extraordinary man the moment she laid eyes on him. However, Parker had only viewed her as the girl his parents had paired him u

His tone was filled with concern and nervousness.He had followed Parker's car all the way to his villa, where he noticed a crowd rushing inside after receiving Angelica's call. Worried about Celia, he got out of his car and rushed inside. He hadn't expected to see Celia fall into the water as soon as he walked in. Despite knowing that Celia could swim, fear overtook him, and he dove into the pool without hesitation. "Celia! Celia, are you okay …"Yardley's deep voice reached Celia's ears, causing her to lose focus for a brief moment. All of a sudden, memories flooded her mind.He had held her just like this when their plane crashed and the two of them fell into the vast ocean. They were also this close to each other.

Chapter 218 Sorely Miss Her

Celia's breath hitched in her throat, and she felt slightly awkward when she met Yardley's fiery gaze. She took a step back involuntarily, but Yardley reached out, wrapped his arm around her waist, and pulled her into his embrace. "Celia …" His voice was husky as he called her name. Her alluring appearance made it difficult for him to keep his emotions under control. His eyes held a blazing fire as he gazed at the woman in his arms. He lowered his head and kissed her enticing red lips passionately without hesitation. Her lips were soft, moist, and sweet.

Chapter 219 Leave No Way Out

"What?" Angelica exclaimed in disbelief when she heard that. She couldn't believe that Celia had stayed here all night with Yardley. Yardley had clearly promised her the day before that he would come to her house last night and try the dinner she had prepared for him. However, he stood her up. She had prepared a feast last night and waited for him for a long time, but he never showed up. She called him, but he claimed that he had to work overtime at the company. But he was clearly with Celia! Was his "overtime" … spending the night with Celia? Jealousy flickered in Angelica's eyes as she assessed Celia from head to toe. She wished she could pierce a hole through Celia with her gaze. She was eaten up with jealousy, but she couldn't let it show in front of Yardley. Angelica stepped forward and yanked Celia away. "Yards, didn't you say you had work to do and needed to work overtime last night? What were you doing with Celia?" she bemoaned."Yeah. I was discussing wo

Chapter 220 Befriending Ms. Stanton

The large doors to the conference room swung open just as Celia was wondering this, and a tall and slender man dressed in a black trench coat walked in. Celia looked up and met a pair of deep and cold eyes. It was him! It was the man she had bumped into at the airport. He was Chandler Lawrence, the CEO of BPL. And the middle-aged man trailing behind Chandler was none other than Jordan.Celia narrowed her eyes slightly. When did Jordan get acquainted with Chandler? Was the plane crash incident she and Yardley experienced connected to Jordan in any way? Yardley had been looking into the incident for so long and had yet to find any concrete evidence. If Jordan was responsible but left no proof, then the situation was far from simple.However, Jordan's attempt to seize power while Yardley was missing was solid evidence. Jordan was only let off the hook because of Otto's leniency.Who would've guessed that Jordan would side with Chandler and target Hughes Incorporated
