Semua Bab Shh! Don't Let Him Know!: Bab 41 - Bab 50

"Yes, Mr. Hughes," Yannis respectfully answered. Soon, he obtained a copy of the surveillance from before Celia went to the airport and until she returned this morning. After that, Yannis returned to the meeting room."Mr. Hughes, I've got it." Yannis gave him the USB drive. Yardley took it, leaned back on his chair, and narrowed his eyes, thinking, what could the surveillance capture?"Start playing it." Yardley placed the USB drive on the table with a cold expression. "Yes." Yannis turned on the laptop, started the projector, and played the surveillance video. On the side, Sabrina secretly wiped away the sweat on her forehead, comforting herself, "So what if they got the surveillance? I wasn't the one who changed the design papers." Sabrina felt that her plan was perfect, and the blame wouldn't fall on her. A while later, the video started with Celia arranging the files. Then, she took out the design papers and carefully checked them over. From the surveillance footage, it was

Celia followed Yardley into his office and asked, "What do you need me for?"Yardley sat on the sofa and crossed his legs. He pointed with his long finger to the seat next to his and commanded, "Sit."Celia couldn’t understand why she was called, but she still sat next to Yardley, "So, Yardley, what’s the matter?"Yardley’s lips parted slightly before he asked in his deep rich voice, "You’re the instigator behind today’s event, am I right?""Instigator? Is he angry? Is he going to complain that I shouldn’t have publicly exposed Sabrina? Is he reluctant to let go of her? Is he going to criticize me?" such thoughts were passing through Celia’s mind as she tried to think of a proper response.Celia tilted her head and watched the man next to her warily, "Huh? Yardley, what do you mean?"He returned her stare with a calm and clear gaze.His eyes were like vortexes, sucking her into the abyss.He nodded and sat closer to her, "You knew that Sabrina would exchange the sketches early

Everything happened too quickly. Who would’ve thought that Sabrina would bring out a knife to hurt Celia?Celia sharpened her gaze, getting ready to kick the blade. Suddenly, Yardley used his body to shield her."It's dangerous! Be careful!" Yardley said in a deep voice. He used one arm to hug Celia and the other arm to capture Sabrina’s hand that was holding the knife.Celia never would’ve thought that Yardley would jump out in front of her. She didn’t manage to pull back her leg and kicked Yardley on the thigh. Yardley’s body trembled, and at the same time, the sharp blade slashed his hand, leaving a mark on the back of his hand."Tch …" The pain from both his thigh and hand made Yardley suck in a breath to reduce the pain. He should’ve been able to capture Sabrina’s hand, if not for the sudden kick Celia gave him. He was still trying to make sense of what happened."Yardley, how are you feeling?" Celia was very concerned when she saw how pained he looked. She initially planne

Celia had no choice but to support Yardley with one arm and fumble for the keys in Yardley’s trouser pocket with the other. She was reaching around for the keys when Yardley snorted, "Where do you think you’re touching?""I’m sorry," Celia apologized and tried to reach for the keys in a different direction.Today mustn’t have been Celia’s lucky day. She had been trying to search for the keys, but they were nowhere to be found. She started to grow impatient and started to reach around the pocket for them, but the more impatient she got, the more she couldn’t find them.Yardley felt some static electricity run through him when he felt Celia’s hand caressing his thigh through the fabric. "Yardley, where did you put the keys? They’re not here!" Celia started to sweat after fumbling for the keys for a few minutes while supporting Yardley the entire time.Yardley grabbed her hand with his uninjured hand and put it into the other trouser pocket. "This side.""You!" Celia rolled her eye

"Clang …" The thermos fell to the ground, and its contents spilled all over the floor.Celia was baffled as to why Quinn accused her of pushing her when she fell by herself. "What’s going on?" Yardley asked when he heard the commotion and came out from the office.Quinn’s expression turned ghastly when she saw Yardley. With tears rolling down her cheeks, she cried out, "Yardley, Celia pushed me and it hurts!"It turned out that the scene where Quinn purposely fell in front of Yardley was to frame Celia. Celia sneered, "Did I push you?"Quinn looked at Yardley with pitiful eyes. "Yardley, don’t blame Cece. Aunt Lillian told me to move Cece’s belongings to the servants’ room the other day, so it’s understandable that Cece is angry at me."So, Quinn was changing her approach. Celia could feel her stomach churn whenever she heard Quinn refer to her as Cece. In a sarcastic tone, Celia spoke up, "Who are you to call me Cece? We aren't that close."Quinn pushed down her rising fury an
