Lahat ng Kabanata ng Ms. York's Second Proposal: Kabanata 91 - Kabanata 100

"You don't need to explain. I understand," Winston interrupted her."Oh, we picked a dress for you. Not sure if you'll like it," Winston said as he took out a big bag from behind him.The brand name of the gown blinded Celeste momentarily.She had seen that bejeweled dress at a fashion event before. Its market value was in the tens of thousands of dollars."It's too valuable. I can't accept it," Celeste immediately declined."Try it on at home. I think you'll like it," Winston insisted as he handed the bag to Celeste.She hesitated to reach out and take it."Ms. York, please, just take it. I don't have any friends here. If you accept it, you'll be my first friend," Wish said, taking the bag and placing it in Celeste's arms."Wish really likes you, and we can hang out more in the future. If you need anything, just message me," Winston added as he looked warmly at Celeste.Celeste felt a warm glow in her heart."Are you here on a business trip?" Celeste asked, setting the dress

Damon spent an entire afternoon at Winston's office. Just before leaving, he retrieved the dress Winston had given Celeste.On the way home, Celeste felt troubled as she noticed the dress untouched in the back seat.She decided to confide in Damon in the end."This dress is too extravagant. Although it might mean nothing to Mr. Belasco, for me, it's bringing a lot of pressure. I should find the right moment to return it.""The Bishop family has everything. What's one dress compared to that?"But remember, you're Mrs. Bishop now. You can't just accept gifts from anyone," Damon advised."Hey, this is just an apology gift from Mr. Belasco because Wish dirtied my dress. Are you jealous?"Celeste sensed the tension and playfully wrapped her arms around Damon's neck."Your jealousy is reasonable. After all, I'm so charming and beloved by everyone. Am I right, darling?" Celeste teased as she nestled closer to Damon.Damon, fed up with her antics, lifted her onto his lap. "I know you

Camden was released early from prison due to Shannon's efforts in securing multiple sentence reductions.Now that he was free, his first act was to hold Celeste accountable. He had always believed she was responsible for his imprisonment.As for how he had precisely tracked her down, Leah played a part in that."Hey, Ms. York, what happened?" Leah noticed Celeste's bruised face, and a malicious glint flashed in her eyes. "Seems like payback's arrived for your misdeeds, huh?""Ms. Sullivan, do you have nothing better to do?" Celeste couldn't be bothered with Leah."I'm here to tell you that five interns, including yourself, are in for Prestige's recruitment. At the end of the month, there's a design contest."Only the winner gets a permanent spot. The other four are out.""Oh." Celeste nodded."Celeste, Prestige values competence. Sleeping with Mr. Bishop won't get you far."Leah's disdainful gaze implied Celeste was a third party between her and Damon."Ms. Sullivan, not maki

Leah, in a drunken state, was crying and causing a scene on the rooftop.Damon took advantage of the moment when she wasn't expecting it and firmly pulled her away from the edge."Danny, please don't be with someone else. I love you, I can't be without you ..." Leah said incoherently as she held onto Damon tightly.Since Damon was unable to shake her off, he tried to persuade her."Leah, please calm down. Let me take you home."At that moment, a sense of guilt unexpectedly washed over him."I'm not going home." Leah clung tightly to him."I'm married, Leah.""You're mine, you can't marry anyone else!" Leah continued to cry and hold onto Damon.Reluctantly, Damon directed Jasper to drive them to the hospital.Meanwhile, Nicholas, who was having a peaceful sleep, was abruptly disturbed."What's wrong with your Celeste ..." Nicholas started to question but paused. He was astonished as he saw Leah in Damon's arms."Really, Damon? Late at night, you're not with Celeste but with

Leah suffered from alcohol poisoning and caused a scene at the hospital.Damon stayed up all night, accompanying her during the IV treatment until she fully regained consciousness the next afternoon."Danny," Leah called out from the hospital bed."I've arranged a day off for you. The driver will take you home today to rest, and you can return to work tomorrow," Damon said as he stood up from the chair beside her hospital bed. His coat was rumpled from holding her. It gave him a messy appearance."Sorry, Danny. I saw you being affectionate with Celeste. I just ... I can't accept it," Leah sobbed. In the past, Damon would have sympathized with her tears. Now, he felt Leah cried too much. Celeste handled tears gracefully, unlike Leah. Leah knew how to trigger a man's protective instinct while Celeste never wanted to appear weak in front of him.Suddenly, Damon remembered the night when Celeste had cried on the roadside due to Caleb's heart problem, and it tugged at his heart.
