Henry was trying to get on Celeste's good side, whereas Shannon was tasked to ask Leah for help. Before, Leah had passed on the wrong message to Serena. And although it had no direct relation with the attack on Damon, it had caused a drift between Damon and Serena. Not only that, Serena had looked into Sylvia's background after the incident and found out that Sylvia brought up her two kids on her own after being divorced. And instead of having "indecent behavior" as what Leah described, Sylvia actually worked as a professional voice interpreter. Henry, on the other hand, allowed Hannah to manipulate his own son's heart transplant surgery process. He wasn't a good man at all. Because of this event, Serena was made into a horrible person for no reason. She felt that she had fallen into Leah's trap again. Hence, she now looked at Leah differently. Meanwhile, Leah tried to gauge Serena's reaction by checking up on her day and night. And judging from how Serena was acting colder

Nicholas was dumbfounded. What kind of reason was that? Damon had always been cold and arrogant. So, hearing this from him sent shivers down Nicholas' spine. "The last time I heard such a thing was from some random woman. What a hopeless romantic you are." Nicholas couldn't help but complain. "I don't need you to be here. If there's nothing else you have to say, get the hell out of here—" Damon's face was dark as he was about to shoo Nicholas away. But in the next second, his face softened, and his tone became a little gentler when he saw Celeste was walking out of the therapy room. All the anxiety on her when she'd just arrived was gone. However, she might have cried since her face was pale, and her eyes were slightly red. "Are you feeling better? You have no idea how worried Damon is," Nicholas said. Damon gave Nicholas a warning glare. Then, he took off his coat and put it on Celeste. "Let's go back home." On their way back, the two said nothing at the start. Cel

When they reached the Bishop residence, Nick and his family had already arrived. When Serena saw Celeste, her smile instantly disappeared. Celeste was also reminded of what had happened the last time, so she had resentment toward Serena as well. Celeste smirked without even greeting her. "Celeste, I want a hug!" The one that was the happiest to see Celeste was Kayden. The moment she reached the house, he leaped out of his mother's arms. Stretching his chubby arms out, he asked Celeste for a hug. After a few months of not seeing him, he'd grown a lot chubbier. "Long time no see, Kayden." Celeste reached out to carry him. She pinched his fat cheeks, and her gloomy mood became much better. Speaking of which, it was all thanks to Kayden who'd acted as her witness and spoke up for her when she got slandered by Leah. Looking at how adorable and chubby Kayden was, Celeste wondered if Damon had looked like this when he was younger too. Celeste liked seeing him so much. "It's

"I'm not going to eat anymore!" Hearing how her own parents weren't siding with her, Carly threw the cutleries down and left angrily. "Celeste, she's just too spoiled. I'll punish her when we get back home. Don't take her words to heart …" For a moment, the atmosphere at the dining table was ice-cold. When Becky saw her daughter throwing a fit as she left, she felt nothing but embarrassment and hurriedly apologized to Celeste. "I'll ask her to visit you and apologize," Nick also said with an awkward look. "It's okay. What she thinks of me isn't important," Celeste replied.She was stating the truth. To her, Carly was just a stranger that had crossed paths with her in life. No matter how Carly judged her, it wouldn't be worth her effort to get hung up. "You should watch your behavior if you don't want other people to talk bad about you." Serena snorted. "I wouldn't be able to stop anyone from slandering me no matter how well-behaved I am anyway."Recalling the upsettin

Of course it looked familiar to Damon. It wasn't just any emerald pendant. It formed one half of the Celestial Bonds, which was a pair of matching pendants. Damon didn't say a word. Instead, he walked further into the study and opened the drawer beside Celeste. Then, he fished out another box that was almost the same size as hers. When he opened the box, Celeste saw the other half of the matching pendant. Celeste's pendant was shaped like a moon whilst Damon's one was a sun. "That's what Henry gave you that day." Damon wasn't asking a question. "Yeah. To be exact, he was just returning the pendant to its rightful owner." Celeste took Damon's pendant as well and played with both pendants. She spoke with a low and hoarse voice. "Want to hear a story?" "You can sit down and tell me," Damon replied.It was rare for such a tight-lipped person like Celeste to talk. Damon sat on the only chair in the study and carried Celeste up to sit on his lap. He only felt at ease whe
