Chapter 41 You Took the Designs

"What is it?" Sabrina and Shirley stopped at the same time. Choking down their hatred for Celia, they looked at her in confusion.Celia held up the folder that was used to hold the sheets of blank paper. "Let’s talk about this."Seeing the blank papers in Celia’s hand, Sabrina’s eyes flickered. "What do you want to talk about?"Celia walked toward Yardley and handed it to him. "A perfectly designed draft magically turned into a normal piece of paper. Don’t you think it’s suspicious, Mr. Hughes?"Yardley took the paper and put it on the table. His fingers drummed the table, creating an oppressive feeling in the room.The drafts obviously had not turned into blank papers by themselves. Someone must have replaced them. There were only a handful of people who had access to the designs, and Celia was always careful about things like these. She would not misplace the drafts.There were only two possibilities. The first was that someone had swapped the designs to spite Celia and embarra

Chapter 42 Go With the Original Plan

"Yes, Mr. Hughes," Yannis respectfully answered. Soon, he obtained a copy of the surveillance from before Celia went to the airport and until she returned this morning. After that, Yannis returned to the meeting room."Mr. Hughes, I've got it." Yannis gave him the USB drive. Yardley took it, leaned back on his chair, and narrowed his eyes, thinking, what could the surveillance capture?"Start playing it." Yardley placed the USB drive on the table with a cold expression. "Yes." Yannis turned on the laptop, started the projector, and played the surveillance video. On the side, Sabrina secretly wiped away the sweat on her forehead, comforting herself, "So what if they got the surveillance? I wasn't the one who changed the design papers." Sabrina felt that her plan was perfect, and the blame wouldn't fall on her. A while later, the video started with Celia arranging the files. Then, she took out the design papers and carefully checked them over. From the surveillance footage, it was

Chapter 43 You're Fired

Ms. Wade took out the recording pen, pressed a button, and the voices of two people having a conversation could be heard."Ms. Wade, I’ve wired 250,000 dollars to your account and I’ll give you another 250,000 when it’s over. You can use this money to treat your son’s illness. You wish for your son to grow healthily, right?" Sabrina’s voice resounded from the pen.Ms. Wade sounded nervous and excited. "That’s a lot of money … What do you want me to do?""It's simple. I just need you to change Ms. Stanton’s documents," Sabrina explained."But … what if I get found out … " Ms. Wade hesitated."Don’t worry. You can pretend to clean when there’s no one around. No one will notice you then."Sabrina chuckled. "Moreover, you only make three thousand dollars as a cleaner, how long do you think it'll take for you to save five hundred thousand dollars? And afterward, resign and lay low in your hometown. Then, find a new job once this is over. Isn't this a win-win situation?""Alright, I'l

Chapter 44 Who Is Celia Stanton Actually?

Celia followed Yardley into his office and asked, "What do you need me for?"Yardley sat on the sofa and crossed his legs. He pointed with his long finger to the seat next to his and commanded, "Sit."Celia couldn’t understand why she was called, but she still sat next to Yardley, "So, Yardley, what’s the matter?"Yardley’s lips parted slightly before he asked in his deep rich voice, "You’re the instigator behind today’s event, am I right?""Instigator? Is he angry? Is he going to complain that I shouldn’t have publicly exposed Sabrina? Is he reluctant to let go of her? Is he going to criticize me?" such thoughts were passing through Celia’s mind as she tried to think of a proper response.Celia tilted her head and watched the man next to her warily, "Huh? Yardley, what do you mean?"He returned her stare with a calm and clear gaze.His eyes were like vortexes, sucking her into the abyss.He nodded and sat closer to her, "You knew that Sabrina would exchange the sketches early

Chapter 45 Go to Hell, Celia!

Yardley didn’t want to admit that he was attracted to Celia. Her smiles and frowns were etched into his mind and it was all he could think about.It was already past working hours when Yardley got back from the Old Hughes estate. He called home and Maude informed him that Celia was not back yet. Hearing that, he drove straight to his company.As night fell, the employees in the office started to head home, but Celia was still busy at work. It wasn’t long before she was the only one left in the office.As she was concentrating on preparing a report, a shadow came and surrounded her."Who is it?" Celia looked around vigilantly. The thing she saw was none other than Yardley’s gorgeous face. Yardley was wearing a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up slightly. He appeared to be glowing due to the way the lights were shining on him."Yardley, what are you doing here?" Celia asked in a surprised manner.Yardley smirked, but replied in a professional manner, "I came to check on the p

Chapter 46 Yardley Got Injured

Everything happened too quickly. Who would’ve thought that Sabrina would bring out a knife to hurt Celia?Celia sharpened her gaze, getting ready to kick the blade. Suddenly, Yardley used his body to shield her."It's dangerous! Be careful!" Yardley said in a deep voice. He used one arm to hug Celia and the other arm to capture Sabrina’s hand that was holding the knife.Celia never would’ve thought that Yardley would jump out in front of her. She didn’t manage to pull back her leg and kicked Yardley on the thigh. Yardley’s body trembled, and at the same time, the sharp blade slashed his hand, leaving a mark on the back of his hand."Tch …" The pain from both his thigh and hand made Yardley suck in a breath to reduce the pain. He should’ve been able to capture Sabrina’s hand, if not for the sudden kick Celia gave him. He was still trying to make sense of what happened."Yardley, how are you feeling?" Celia was very concerned when she saw how pained he looked. She initially planne

Chapter 47 Deliberately Provoked Her

Celia realized that she had misspoken. She cleared her throat and explained, "I used to learn martial arts."Yardley chuckled, finding the idea that she learned martial arts to be unbelievable.Yardley did a full checkup at the hospital and just as Celia expected, the cut was superficial. He was lucky that there were no bone fractures in his leg. Instead, it was soft tissue contusion and just a few days of rest and recuperation was all he needed. Celia heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the prognosis. "Thank goodness you’re alright."Yardley glanced at her and asked, "Why? Were you worried about me?""What's wrong with being worried about you? You got hurt protecting me," Celia retorted.The doctor prescribed Yardley some medication before they left and Celia noted the instructions diligently.It was dawn when they exited the hospital. Yardley glanced at Celia and said, "Let’s go to Lunaria.""Not going home?" Celia asked."It’s very late." Yardley gave a soft smile. Actual

Chapter 48 Feed Me

Celia had no choice but to support Yardley with one arm and fumble for the keys in Yardley’s trouser pocket with the other. She was reaching around for the keys when Yardley snorted, "Where do you think you’re touching?""I’m sorry," Celia apologized and tried to reach for the keys in a different direction.Today mustn’t have been Celia’s lucky day. She had been trying to search for the keys, but they were nowhere to be found. She started to grow impatient and started to reach around the pocket for them, but the more impatient she got, the more she couldn’t find them.Yardley felt some static electricity run through him when he felt Celia’s hand caressing his thigh through the fabric. "Yardley, where did you put the keys? They’re not here!" Celia started to sweat after fumbling for the keys for a few minutes while supporting Yardley the entire time.Yardley grabbed her hand with his uninjured hand and put it into the other trouser pocket. "This side.""You!" Celia rolled her eye

Chapter 49 Can't Possibly Need Help to Bathe

Celia was at a loss for words."Didn’t you say this was my repayment?" Yardley coughed out.Celia felt a bit hopeless that he took her joke seriously, but she ended up agreeing when she spotted his wound. She felt she had no choice since he protected her.Noticing her reluctance, Yardley’s expression darkened. He took the cutlery from her hand and pouted. "I was messing with you. I’ll do it myself."Celia breathed a sigh of relief. She wondered when this aloof man had learned to crack a joke.Yardley was really not used to using his left hand and had a lot of difficulty eating the pasta, but once he was done eating, he elegantly wiped the corners of his mouth and praised Celia, saying, "Not bad.""Good to know you enjoyed it." Celia stood up and started to clear the table."Leave it. The housekeeper will clear it up tomorrow. I’m dead tired," Yardley commented while massaging his temples."Let me help you to your room then." Celia was also feeling tired and wished to hit the sa

Chapter 50 The Two-faced Bitch's Approach

"Clang …" The thermos fell to the ground, and its contents spilled all over the floor.Celia was baffled as to why Quinn accused her of pushing her when she fell by herself. "What’s going on?" Yardley asked when he heard the commotion and came out from the office.Quinn’s expression turned ghastly when she saw Yardley. With tears rolling down her cheeks, she cried out, "Yardley, Celia pushed me and it hurts!"It turned out that the scene where Quinn purposely fell in front of Yardley was to frame Celia. Celia sneered, "Did I push you?"Quinn looked at Yardley with pitiful eyes. "Yardley, don’t blame Cece. Aunt Lillian told me to move Cece’s belongings to the servants’ room the other day, so it’s understandable that Cece is angry at me."So, Quinn was changing her approach. Celia could feel her stomach churn whenever she heard Quinn refer to her as Cece. In a sarcastic tone, Celia spoke up, "Who are you to call me Cece? We aren't that close."Quinn pushed down her rising fury an
