Chapter 571 Picking a Gift

Celia had completely forgotten about that because she was overwhelmed by the incident with the reporter sneaking into the company. She grumbled under her breath as she massaged her temples. On the other end of the line, Yardley could picture Celia's expression. He couldn't help but chuckle. "It's alright. There's still time. I can go with you to pick something out."Celia was still struggling to choose a gift when he came to pick her up. Yardley took her hand in his when he noticed that."Grandpa will definitely like whatever you choose for him." He was stating the truth. Celia had a great taste. He could already imagine how Otto would praise her for her gift."But I still feel like something's missing." Celia tapped on her chin.Yardley leaned in close to her and whispered, "Let me take you somewhere."…When they got out of the car, Celia looked puzzled as she looked at the bar in front of her.Yardley took her hand and led her inside.It was a speakeasy.

Chapter 572 To Bet

Morgan's phone also vibrated at this moment. She cursed under her breath. Emma had chosen the worst time to show up. But it was too late to say anything now. Morgan saw the two people in front turning toward the sound.Gritting her teeth, she didn't dare to wait and immediately ran out."Catch her!" A man's voice came from behind her. Morgan gasped for breath and ran toward Emma.Emma, who was still wondering where Morgan had gone, hadn't even looked up when she suddenly heard someone banging on her car, scaring her.Morgan's face appeared outside the car and she quickly opened the door to get in. "Hurry up!"Emma still hadn't reacted when she turned to Morgan and asked, "What's wrong with you?""Hurry up and drive! Let's get out of here!" Since she had run really fast just now, Morgan's face was flushed, and her chest was heaving as she caught her breath.The driver immediately started the car and drove away. Morgan leaned out the window and looked back. Seeing that there w

Chapter 573 Relying on Luck

"Me?" Celia stunned. Reaching around Celia's waist, Yardley whispered in her ear, "Yeah. To be honest, I'm clueless about gemstones." Celia's mouth twitched when she heard that. She thought Yardley had suggested making a bet because he had some secret that guaranteed victory. Yet, it turned out that he was really gambling."Is Ms. Stanton also a gemstone betting master?" Patrick raised his head to look at Celia, and his eyes showed a hint of scrutiny.Turning to look at Patrick, Celia deliberately appeared mysterious. She rested her hand on her chin and smiled. This not only intrigued Patrick but also raised suspicions from Jasmine. Patrick knew that someone who was by Yardley's side couldn't be a simple person. But she looked younger than Jasmine. So how could she be a gemstone expert?Satisfied with their reactions, Celia, who had kept them in suspense for a long time, finally opened her hands. "Gemstone betting? It's my first time today. Well, since it's betting, it's a

Chapter 574 Sure Win

Suddenly, Celia walked over, carrying a huge stone. Those who didn't know any better would think she had chiseled it out of a cliff. The larger the stone, the higher the value and the higher the probability of finding something valuable inside. But this happened rarely, as many who chose large stones failed to uncover what they desired. After all, gemstone betting was a risky business. One cut could make you a millionaire or leave you bankrupt. No one would choose such a large stone without a more than 50% chance of success.Everyone was surprised, but Celia didn't care. She calmly placed the stone down. "I'm exhausted. This thing is quite heavy," she said, fanning herself as if relieved of a burden. Patrick observed her and couldn't help but frown. Meanwhile, standing by the side, Jasmine scoffed. "Ms. Stanton, larger stones don't necessarily yield better results."The disdain in her eyes was obvious. Jasmine glanced at the stone that Celia had brought over. It was a dull gr

Chapter 575 Excellent-Grade Andean Opal

"This …" The professional stonecutter had an interesting expression on his face. He cut the stone all the way to the bottom, yet there wasn't the slightest gleam of a gemstone to be seen."It's indeed a useless piece of rock with nothing inside," Jasmine said condescendingly. She had felt a little nervous in the beginning. But after thinking about it, she realized how foolish she had been. "She's definitely an amateur.""I know, right? She picked such a huge raw stone. It seems like there is nothing inside.""This is going to be a huge loss for her."Celia was completely unaffected by the crowd's chatter. She stroked her chin and took a closer look at the stone. "Did I make a wrong guess?" she muttered. She pointed at the remaining half of the stone and said, "Start cutting from here, then."The stonecutter, who was about to step away, was stunned. "You still want to keep going?""Of course. Start cutting now." Celia stood beside the rock with a look of anticipation.

Chapter 576 Admit Defeat

Jasmine rushed over almost immediately with a surprised look on her face. Her gaze was fixed on the rock. Even her fingers, which were pressed against the table, were trembling. Getting such a huge piece of opal from a raw stone was already unheard of. But an even more valuable piece was hidden in the part that had been cut off. Jasmine couldn't believe her eyes. She was a veteran gemstone gambler but had never heard of something like this happening. Hadn't Celia said that she was a complete amateur? Why was she so lucky? Could it be that Celia had been hiding her skills all along? "I told you. I'm very lucky. Now, do you believe me?"Celia was incredibly calm. She walked up to Yardley and wrapped her arm around his waist. He kissed her cheek affectionately and said, "Yeah. Even I'm amazed by your luck." He had been stunned when the stonecutter had announced that there was opal in Celia's raw stone. Celia smiled with a glint in her eyes. "These things are all up to luc

Chapter 577 You Always Manage to Surprise Me

Celia thought Yardley had proposed gemstone betting because of Magnus."Honestly, it was because I saw your conversation," he admitted truthfully. However, his expression was a little weird. "I didn't expect you to know him."He hadn’t thought that far when he saw Celia's conversation on her phone. However, now that Celia mentioned it, he immediately thought of the possibility.But he honestly hadn’t expected Celia to know Magnus.The "Magnus" the couple were talking about was none other than Jasmine's grandfather, the current head of the Silva family. He was a legend in gemstone betting, and he had played a significant role in propelling the Silva family to its current position."The way I got to know Mr. Silva Senior was honestly quite peculiar." Celia reminisced for a moment, a wry smile playing at the corners of her mouth.In the end, it was all thanks to her badass grandfather. Celia had met Magnus when she was a child, and Magnus had asked her to pick out a gemstone.

Chapter 578 Have You by My Side

Yardley was in the kitchen preparing dinner when Celia arrived home.Celia sniffed the air before wrapping her arms around his waist. "Yardley."Celia nuzzled against his back, which made her voice sound a little muffled."What's wrong?" he asked softly as he turned his head.Celia shook her head and looked up at him. "It's just so nice to have you here by my side.""How did things go at work?" Yardley asked as he booped her nose and leaned down to plant a kiss on her forehead."We still haven't found the reporter who snuck in."Celia sighed, thinking about it. "I'm just worried about Morgan."After all, those two individuals could have seen Morgan's van and recognized her. That meant Morgan could be in danger as long as the mole in the company wasn't caught.At first, she had suggested Morgan take a break and stay at home, but the latter had refused. Morgan believed she shouldn't let her personal life interfere with her work.Celia hadn’t pressed further but had advise

Chapter 579 Eating in Secret

Morgan was still immersed in the emotions from the scene. She blinked several times because she couldn't believe her eyes. Why was Richard here?Richard proceeded to take the towel from one of the staff and put it over Morgan's head. Then, he drew her into his arms. Morgan came back to her senses when she felt his warmth. She raised her head and smiled. "Why are you here?"Her voice was a little hoarse because of the crying scene. There were even traces of tears on her lashes. She nuzzled into Richard's embrace like a playful little kitten."Because I missed you," Richard said tenderly as he helped her dry her hair. He had come over to bring Morgan a portable fan and some ice because she had complained about the weather being too hot. He had happened to see her acting out that scene. "How was my performance?"Morgan lowered her head to look at Richard's clothes, which were wet because of her. She wanted to move away, but Richard wouldn’t loosen his grip. "You were g

Chapter 580 I'm Not Afraid of Yardley Hughes

The sound of the car screeching drew the attention of the security guards in the parking lot. The driver noticed that and turned around to escape the scene. Morgan dashed toward Richard with a dumbfounded look on her face."Richard, are you okay?"She kneeled before Richard, close to tears. Then, she reached out to hold Richard's arm. Richard stood up while holding the back of his head. He shook his head and said, "I'm fine."A security guard in the parking lot ran over and asked, "What happened?"Morgan was still fixated on Richard. She was so anxious that she was unable to talk. Richard noticed her distress, so he wrapped his arm around her shoulder to comfort her. He turned to the security guard and said, "A car tried to run us over. Please check the surveillance footage to check the car's plate and its driver."The security guard's expression turned grave when he heard that. "Okay. I'll get right on it.""Let's go to the hospital first." Morgan didn't dare to wait a
