Semua Bab Shh! Don't Let Him Know!: Bab 711 - Bab 720

The family physician's words made Yardley frown."Crippling anxiety?"He reflected on the events of the past few days. Celia had been quite busy dealing with Serena and Noah. It seemed that the past few days had really taken a toll on her.Yardley looked at the unconscious Celia worriedly. "I gave Mrs. Hughes a sedative shot, but we need to keep an eye on her. Sudden fainting spells are tricky to deal with. It would be best to take her to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow."Yardley nodded. Then, he sent the family physician on his way.…Celia still hadn't woken up the next morning. Yardley gently shook her, but she showed no signs of waking.It seemed like she was truly exhausted.But how could her condition have deteriorated so unexpectedly? Celia was perfectly fine at the wedding yesterday, and now she was unresponsive. Yardley scooped Celia up and drove her to Ashvale's best hospital.Celia was soon wheeled into the examination room, leaving Yardley alone at the doo

Celia furrowed her brows. The fact that she had to travel here by plane indicated the isolation of the island in the sea. The only means of departure seemed to be by boat or plane.In other words, Otto had severed her connections with the outside world.Celia realized something was wrong as she walked around the villa and discovered that there wasn't a single electronic device in sight. There were no newspapers or television to provide information from the outside world.She truly had been completely cut off from the world.Otto had gone to so much trouble to get her to this island and hadn't provided her with any gadgets just for her to focus on her health. Celia had a feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't say anything because the two housekeepers were constantly watching her."This villa was purchased by Mr. Hughes Senior specifically for your prenatal care," one of the housekeepers said as she followed Celia. "The scenery boasts great scenery, as you've seen ju

Meanwhile, in the villa, Celia was sitting in the room, biting her fingers gently as she watched the housekeepers outside the door. From time to time, she glanced at herself with the corner of her eye, feeling somewhat dissatisfied. What kind of prenatal care was this? They had sent her to a place where she couldn't go out anywhere and was surrounded by so many household staff. It felt like she was being imprisoned.A thought occurred to Celia as she remembered the day Yardley had hesitated to say something to her. She touched her flat abdomen. It had only been a month, so naturally, there wasn't much of a baby bump. But what kind of fetus would make Otto so cautious?Celia took a deep breath. Without any electronic devices, she couldn't contact the outside world, so she had no idea how things were out there.She gritted her teeth and wondered when Yardley would discover her. She hated the feeling of being controlled by others.Celia frowned and opened the door. The houseke

"This is a check for one million dollars. Can you talk now?"Susie looked at the check in front of her, stunned. Although she had been working by Otto's side for many years, this was the first time she had held a check with such a huge amount."I was taking care of Madam in the villa yesterday and was called back here in the evening," she said.Yardley suddenly sat up at the mention of Celia and asked, "Where is she?""On a deserted beach. I flew there. Mr. Hughes Senior didn't allow us to use any electronic devices, so I don't know the exact location," said Susie.Yardley furrowed his brows. He hadn't expected Otto to be so cautious. Otto hadn't even spared the housekeepers around him.With this revelation, it became clear that Otto had been manipulating things behind the scenes. No wonder Yardley hadn't been able to contact Celia for the past few days.The only way he could think of now was to send the psychologist to Celia and have his men tail him."Do you have any way to c

"Is this how you should talk to your elders?" Otto growled.He was accustomed to being respected and had never been treated with such an attitude before."Is this how you should be treating your granddaughter-in-law?" Celia refuted, anger filling her eyes that had been dull and lifeless a moment ago. "If it hadn't been for you, would I be in this state now?"Otto's breath hitched in his throat. It was the first time he had seen Celia in such a state."Anyhow, I'm still your elder. You shouldn't treat me with attitude," he insisted.His gaze turned cold as he stared at the pale Celia without his usual benevolent smile on his face.The atmosphere between the two became increasingly tense. Seeing that things weren't going well, Yardley signaled to the housekeeper beside him to escort Otto out.Helpless, Otto followed Yardley's suggestion and left the room."Don't be angry."Seeing that Celia was still angry, Yardley walked over to comfort her. Unexpectedly, she completely ignored
