Celia didn't realize the room she was in belonged to someone else. She thought that the Hughes family had purposefully kept the bathroom stocked with men's products to throw her off. "What a strange place," she thought. "And to think I'll have to stay here for three months!"Celia had made a bet with her grandfather; she would stay at the Hughes residence for three months, but if she still hadn't fallen in love with Yardley by the end of that, their engagement would be called off.Celia took a shower, had dinner served by the housekeeper, and fell into a deep sleep. It had been a long day after all.Eventually, Yardley got home from a business gathering in the wee hours of the night. He knew that Celia would arrive at the Hughes residence that day. Otto initially asked him to pick her up, but he declined, citing work as an excuse. He had no interest in his fiancée. In fact, he expected their engagement to be called off sooner or later.Yardley took a shower and went to bed after

"Look! Who is that woman behind Mr. Hughes? She's so beautiful!" "Wow, her legs are so toned and straight! I'm jealous!""That can't be Mr. Hughes' fiancée, right?""How's that possible? It can't be."Everyone gossiped about Celia's identity. They thought she was a business partner at first. Then, she and Yardley separated to report to the Secretarial Department. The news spread like wildfire throughout the entire company. The beautiful woman who had just arrived at work with Yardley was his rumored fiancée. Everyone was shocked. They had no idea a country bumpkin could be so beautiful.Celia went to the Human Resources Department to go through the formalities. Meanwhile, the four employees of the Secretarial Department were having an animated discussion. "Celia Stanton is so beautiful! She's even more beautiful than Willow Xanders."Sabrina Xanthos, the head of the Secretarial Department, looked down with disdain in her eyes. "What's so good about being beautiful? Can a c

Celia looked at Yardley, confused."I must remind you that we're still engaged. Besides, Norman's a celebrity; I hope there won't be any scandals involving you two, or it'll harm the Hughes family's reputation."Celia realized that Yardley had misunderstood her after she heard that. "Wait a minute … he thinks I like Norman? How did this guy even jump to such a conclusion?" she wondered."Also, it won't be easy for the Lorimer family to accept you, especially since you're two years older than Norman.""Enough." She thought he was getting a little carried away with his false accusations."Who I like is none of your business, so stay out of it," she told him stoically.Yardley's expression hardened. Both of them sat in silence for the rest of the drive. He interpreted Celia's lack of denial as an implicit agreement. On the other hand, his words annoyed her.Yardley was unable to sleep that night, as usual. He had suffered from chronic insomnia since he was kidnapped and impri

The three of them exchanged pleasantries. It was widely known that Barnaby and Otto were close friends. Also, their families once dominated the business world. Alas, Barnaby sold his company and retired from the business world many years ago. There had been little news about him since. It was said that he traveled around the world with his granddaughter. Still, the Stanton family's influence remained widespread across the country.Sinclair presented the gifts Barnaby had prepared for the Hughes family. They included a world-renowned painting, a plot of land in the city worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and other equally valuable items. The Stanton family went above and beyond when it came to gift-giving.It pained Celia to watch these extravagant gifts end up in the hands of the Hughes family … At least Sinclair didn't blow her cover. It would no longer be fun if her cover were blown. "Lillian is such a snob. She might not let me leave after three months. Also, Yardley

Yardley raised his hand and tugged at his tie. He felt his anger intensify. He was furious at himself for striking up a conversation with her. He couldn't figure out why he felt the need to start a conversation with her just because he thought the car was too quiet. The more he thought about it, the more he felt irritated he became with himself. Not a word was exchanged between them for the rest of the drive. Yardley stepped out of the car as soon as it arrived at the Hughes residence. Celia, however, got out of the car lazily and strolled inside. Yardley sat on the living room sofa with a glass of water in his hand. Celia didn't even look at him as she walked past him on her way upstairs. The former slammed his glass onto the table, but the latter was unfazed and continued up the stairs. "All this over a joke? He sure is petty! I can't believe someone like him is actually the CEO of Hughes Inc. Isn't he worried about ruining his family business in the future?" she thought.
