All Chapters of Ms. York's Second Proposal: Chapter 571 - Chapter 580

Celeste, being an adult, certainly didn't take offense to children.Lester claimed this was his home, and in a way, he wasn't entirely wrong. Despite not having the blood of the Bishop family, he had grown up with Serena. Now that he had been brought back, it meant that Damon and his mother were willing to recognize him as a member of the Bishop family.Whether it was his home or not, however, was none of Celeste's concern. Besides, she knew her child well. Leo's affection for Damon and Serena stemmed purely from familial bonds. He wouldn't care about being recognized as Serena's heir. Of course, given Lester's age, he wouldn't care about that either. He simply couldn't bear the thought of someone else sharing the love he received from his "dad" and "grandma."Fiona's actions had caused Celeste immense suffering and changed her life. She harbored a deep hatred for her as a result. However, she refused to judge a child. She couldn't bring herself to believe that Lester was selfish. S

As Damon and Liam entered, they were promptly served tea."I'm really sorry about today," Damon said."Lester is still young, and neither Leo nor I will take it to heart," Celeste replied honestly."Leo is still a child, after all. I would feel terribly guilty if what happened today affected his mood.""No need to worry. He's quite… unique," Celeste wanted to say that genius children never see themselves as just children but felt it might sound self-congratulatory, so she phrased it differently."Maybe he takes after his mother. I certainly wasn't that clever as a child," Damon understood her meaning and stated sincerely."Neither was I. When my mother was alive, she used to say I was smarter than Cal. She cited how I could read a clock at three and recite the Ballad of the Eternal Whisper at four. But what's that compared to Leo? He can recite an entire dictionary now. Poems have logic, and dictionaries do not."Like any mother sharing stories of her child, Celeste suddenly op

Leo had never seen Damon this angry before, and it momentarily stunned him.After a brief silence, he took a deep breath."I noticed that grandma never got a chance to talk to me, but she really wanted to be close to me." Leo thought that if he looked like he was about to fall, Serena would surely come to his rescue, and they would have a chance to talk.Plus, if Serena had saved him, Celeste might have gone over to thank her, potentially bringing the family a bit more closer.His intentions were simple yet complex. Still, he hadn't anticipated that his grandmother would end up with a broken right arm from the effort. This was something he regretted deeply."......"Damon, observing Leo’s serious expression, was at a loss for words due to his anger.He was, in fact, truly Celeste’s son! She was best at achieving her goals at the cost of her body! Serena had rushed to rescue Leo just in time, but what if she hadn’t?Indeed, Leo, with his meticulous mind and intelligence, might h

Back to Megan and Winston.In order to get rid of Mark that day, Dora claimed that Winston was her fiance. In fact, she had ulterior motives. While her public persona was that of an ethereal, otherworldly fairy, in reality, she was a fierce competitor. She didn't care how old the other person was. As long as they were a woman, Dora saw them as competition.Her visit to Taverdale had reignited her competitive spirit when she encountered Megan, who was youthful, beautiful, and unaware of her charms. That was why she somewhat played along when she went out late with Mark.Having Winston come to her rescue and potentially progress their relationship was a win for her. Even if Winston hadn't shown up and she had ended up sleeping with Mark, she wouldn’t have seen it as a loss. It would have just been another way to advance her career.It was out of a sense of friendship that Winston woke up from his sleep just to save her. He was unaware of Dora's scheming and did not take it to heart.

When a girl got hurt in a love relationship, her favorite thing to do was to visit her best friend, and Megan was no exception.She went straight to Celeste's place that very night.Celeste was watching a science documentary with Leo when she heard the sound of a car in the driveway and smiled. "Your godmother is here."Megan, being the only person besides the Belasco family who could enter the York residence without prior notice, was well known to the gatekeeper.Celeste held Leo's hand and went out to greet her when she saw Megan stepping out of the car with a somber expression."Love, what a profound thing. It asks us to pledge our very lives," Leo murmured to Celeste. Then, he ran ahead to take Megan’s bag."Aunt Megan," he greeted her sweetly.Interestingly, Leo was a quiet kid who rarely spoke, but he always had more than a few words to say to his godmother, Megan. Even though he had only seen her a few times when he was abroad, the two of them had bonded incredibly well u
