All Chapters of Ms. York's Second Proposal: Chapter 671 - Chapter 680

Celeste had been running a fever ever since she returned from the hospital. Being pregnant, she dared not take any medication and resorted to physical cooling methods. It took her two and a half days to finally bring the fever down.Moreover, the stress affected her pregnancy, and the doctor advised her to rest. She ended up staying in bed for five to six days until she regained some energy.She had to leave the house because a city in the north was hit by a flood. Taverdale was hosting a charity gala for entrepreneurs, calling on benevolent companies to aid the disaster-stricken people.For such an event, both Opulent Prowl and Leo Jewels naturally had to make an appearance.Both companies agreed that Celeste, with her significant public influence, was the best representative. Thus, Celeste dressed in a formal black suit and went to the event with her assistant.All the prominent companies in Taverdale attended the charity gala, with the Bishop Group being an honored guest. Altho

"What do you mean?" Veronica was suddenly confused.Damon noticed that she didn't seem like she was acting and grunted coldly. "If you don't know, then go find out."With that, he left Veronica standing there alone.The idea that someone was waiting to toast her was just an excuse.He knew Celeste would be present that night. Thus, he asked Veronica to be his date.Celeste wore a black suit, flat shoes, and understated colors and styles, yet she still stood out among the women in evening gowns.She seemed to have lost some weight and looked a bit pale.During dinner, Damon tried not to look in her direction, but he couldn't help himself. He noticed she hardly ate anything and saw when she went outside.Celeste, who was dressed in a black suit, blended into the night. One couldn't tell what was on her mind. Veronica felt utterly confused as she watched Damon leave. What was his purpose in calling her back? Besides, what he said a moment ago was clearly provocative. He told her

Celeste was three months pregnant, and her growing belly would soon be hard to conceal. She sent Sebastian a WhatsApp message to discuss their next steps."I'm 11 weeks pregnant. What do you think about this?""…"Sebastian sent a series of ellipses in response. "What do you want me to think?"Sebastian, of course, knew that if Celeste cared about his opinion, she wouldn't have waited this long to tell him."This came as a surprise. If you can't handle it, we can get a divorce.""We can't divorce right now. It might shock my grandfather."Sebastian had already come out to his parents, who had kept it under wraps. His grandfather, Joseph Miller, was not doing well, and no one in the Miller family dared to act rashly. They wanted to ensure the old man had a peaceful final journey."Got it." Celeste figured that since the Miller family was far away in Freedonia, she might be able to have the baby quietly in Carlino, provided she kept a low profile."Is it Damon's?" Sebastian aske

The three had initially planned to meet up and catch up on recent events. They never expected to encounter Celeste and Sebastian.Damon, already in a foul mood, was accompanied by Nicholas and Jasper as they drank a few more rounds. They stayed at the bar until closing time. The atmosphere grew increasingly tense."Let's move to another place," Nicholas suggested, and the trio settled the bill and headed out.As they passed Celeste's table, Nicholas noticed other customers had taken it. This meant Celeste and Sebastian had left a while ago. He stole a glance at Damon, who maintained a poker face. One couldn't read his face."Let's head to the Echo Club," Jasper proposed.His driver was waiting outside. Thus, they were sent to the Echo Club straight away.It was quite a coincidence when, upon arriving, they saw Celeste and Sebastian getting out of a car and walking into the five-star hotel next door.Sebastian was being particularly attentive, fetching a coat from the car for Cel

"Are you planning to lock me up here?" Celeste had no strength left to struggle. She looked around from Damon's arms while asking in an icy tone."Don't say it like that. This villa was bought as a gift for you." Damon's voice sounded as though thick with suppressed pain, tired and hoarse.As Damon carried her inside, Celeste knew things were going wrong. She forced herself to observe the surroundings to search for an escape route.Though uninhabited, the villa was well-maintained and lived-in. The courtyard was filled with broad-leaved plants, roses climbed the walls, and even a few cats roamed among the flowers.This was indeed a place Celeste would love. She had once told Damon that when she got old, she'd want a quieter place to live and tend to her flowers."Let Edna help you. You'd need to replace the flowers often, wouldn't you?" Damon had teased her then. He had kissed the top of her head and casually asked what she liked."I want either broad-leaved plants or masses of
