Semua Bab Shh! Don't Let Him Know!: Bab 771 - Bab 780

The woman showed no signs of backing down, embroiling herself in a heated argument with Nona. Nona was on the verge of grabbing the woman's clothes, ready to disfigure her face with her long nails. "What are you doing?" the woman resisted while the man, who had been protecting her, maintained a stoic silence. Celia raised her eyebrows. Even as his girlfriend faced bullying, he stayed indifferent. Thinking about his earlier protective stance, it now seemed like a joke to Celia. "Are you even a man?" Celia growled and proceeded to pull Nona away. "What do you think you're doing?" Nona struggled desperately. However, in the next moment, she felt a force grabbing her collar from behind. Gazing backward, she saw Yardley. Seeing the fierce look in Yardley's eyes, she suddenly dared not make a sound. The young couple refrained from speaking as well. All they could do was watch as Yardley nonchalantly held Nona by the collar. "Let go of her," Celia said, and the next moment

"No!" Yvette roared, opening her mouth to bite on Yardley's arm. However, Yardley was quick to react. He stuffed a crumpled piece of paper into her mouth. Now, Yvette was completely immobilized. "What's going on?" After a while, Celia walked out of the elevator, only to discover Yvette bound and left carelessly in the hallway. "Mm-mm ..." Yvette struggled, and soon, Celia untied the ropes for her. "Yvette, what happened ..." Just as Celia was about to ask, Yvette hastily fled the hotel as if escaping for her life. Celia called after her, but Yvette never looked back. Soon, Yvette returned to Charles' room. "Darling." Upon seeing Yvette return, Charles stepped forward to greet her. Yet, he hesitated upon noticing the marks on her neck. "Where did you go?" Charles lowered his gaze, examining the bruises on Yvette's body. Her hands showed signs of bruising as well. "Don't ask me!" Unexpectedly, Yvette burst into tears before Charles, covering her face and appearing inc

"He's the one who brought you here. If it weren't for him, Yvette wouldn't have had a chance to get close to you." Yardley was displeased. All these subsequent troubles might not have happened if it weren't for Charles. "Yvette had also deceived him," Celia explained, scanning the surroundings. Yvette had been apprehended. So, it was time to reveal the truth to Charles. Celia asked, "Now that he has suddenly disappeared, could it be related to Yvette?" Suddenly, she felt another wave of pain in her shoulder, causing her body to tremble. Yardley realized something was wrong and quickly pulled down the back of Celia's clothes. There were bruises on her smooth skin. Furrowing his brows, Yardley's eyes filled with concern. "I'll go find her now." He hadn't expected Nona to harm Celia to this extent. When she kidnapped Celia previously, he hadn't had the chance to deal with her. Now, she had come to them. "Now is not the time to discuss that." Celia shook her head. Regardless,

"So what if you're pregnant? Big deal! Everyone who has a vagina is capable of getting pregnant!" Darlene sneered and continued to needle Nicole, "Besides, are you sure that the baby in your belly is Norman's? "It doesn't look like it to me. Weren't you involved with your ex-boyfriend not too long ago? Who knows whose baby you're carrying? Perhaps you're just pinning it on Norman!""Shut up! I do not want to hear any of your nonsense!" Nicole's physical discomfort was making her more irritable. She held herself back as she didn't want to argue with Darlene.Darlene couldn't do anything to Nicole at the moment, but her verbal assaults might just push Nicole over the edge. Perhaps she might be able to cause Nicole to have a miscarriage on the spot.Hence, she became even more ruthless, and her words became even more unbridled. "Are you feeling guilty?" she sneered.Her tone was tinged with contempt as she continued to mock Nicole. "Don't you think it's a bit pathetic to threaten No

Norman hurried over to her bedside before Nicole could come to her senses. He held her hand and asked with concern, "How're you feeling, Nicole? Are you alright?" His gaze was filled with concern and worry as the couple locked eyes.However, she remained unfazed as she looked at his face. It was as if she were looking at a complete stranger.Norman was still caught up in his emotions. He kept checking on Nicole and explaining over and over again how he had been working late into the night and how he had been looking for her the whole night.After a while, he realized that his words were falling on deaf ears.He fell silent and asked in confusion, "Why aren't you saying anything? Are you mad at me?"Nicole burst out laughing when she heard that. He looked so innocent. She would've believed him if it hadn't been for that phone call."I'm not upset," she calmly said, as if he had nothing to do with her. Then, she asked in an indifferent tone, "Is Darlene okay with you coming to
