All Chapters of Ms. York's Second Proposal: Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

Phillip looked more energetic in real life than how he appeared on the TV. He wore a brilliant purple suit and sat in the middle of the room with a cigarette between his lips. Did Lewis just call Phillip by his first name? Could Phillip be his godfather? Celeste knew that this couldn't be just a simple family dinner. But she remained calm as she walked over. Phillips sized Celeste up as he watched Celeste walk up to him. He joked, "The Queen of Cards is here." He had briefly heard about what she had done in the past few days. "Thanks for having me, Mr. Moore." Celeste was a little embarrassed, but she remained outwardly composed."Even Damon calls me Grandpa just like how Nicholas does. What? Do you feel pressured to do the same?" Phillip released a puff of smoke and said in dissatisfaction. He was Nicholas' grandfather? Celeste tried to make sense of the relationships between Phillip and the others. She then quickly said, "Hello, Grandpa." Only then did Phillip smile.

Phillip was getting old. With all his family members busy with work, he felt lonely at times. He was over the moon seeing how genuine Celeste was. "It's okay. Damon has to come even if you don't. He promised that he'd play a hundred games of chess with me because of you." As Phillip spoke, he smirked as he glanced at Damon. Celeste was taken aback. Tilting her head to the side, she looked at Damon. He had his usual poker face on, so she couldn't tell how he was feeling. "Back then, I wondered what kind of woman this devious and insufferable brat would marry. I didn't expect there would be a woman that could manage him like you." "Grandpa, I can't manage him at all." Celeste thought she came off as melodramatic the moment she said that, so she quickly changed the topic. "We'll visit you again in spring." "Can't manage him? Damon is just worried that he hasn't given you enough things. If you don't believe me, try asking him to give you his life and see if he'd do it," Nichola

Although Serena was an assertive woman, she wasn't evil at heart. She heard from Damon about how Sylvia helped James out and how the engagement agreement came about. She accepted their marriage wholeheartedly, especially after seeing James' emerald pendant. She was biased toward Celeste back then, so it was difficult for her to judge Celeste neutrally and rationally. But after observing Celeste the whole evening, Serena finally saw some good sides to her. Celeste stood her ground back when Serena was harsh to her. But now that Serena treated her well, she didn't attempt to seize the chance and please Serena either. She was unfazed whether she was treated well or badly. She was neither timid nor arrogant. Putting her family background aside, wasn't she a perfect example of a cultured and graceful woman? Both Celeste and Serena were unyielding women. Serena was cold toward Celeste for half a year. Celeste treated her the same throughout that entire period. But now that they had c

"He's really nice to me. He remembers anyone or anything that I care about. He helped Caleb get a heart transplant. Not only that, but he helped me out with a lot of things too. He just looks cold on the outside, but he's a kindhearted man. If you were still alive, you would've liked him very much too. "I'll make sure to avenge you by spring. I'll send Henry to jail myself." It was beginning to snow harder. The snowflakes landed on Celeste's head. They didn't melt in time, so there was a layer of snow up on her head. She was always a quiet person. But she shared a lot of things with Sylvia today. Resting her weak body against the tombstone, she seemed like a lonely black dot in the snow. Her voice was so hoarse and sickly that it'd ache anyone's heart. Not far away, Damon had been here for a long while. As he listened to her cry miserably, he felt the urge to hug and coax her. But he thought that it wouldn't be appropriate to do that in front of the tomb of his mother-in-la

Shannon and Megan were fighting each other. They pulled each other's hair and scratched each other's faces. None of them was willing to back down. Megan purposely distanced themselves away from Celeste as she was worried that they might hurt her. The fight was eventually stopped by the security at the hospital. Shannon's face was scratched by Megan. But Megan wasn't in any better state. Her bun was pulled off and she lost an earring. She looked like a mess. After exiting the hospital, Celeste reached out to hug Megan as she teared up. "What are you crying for? I've been wanting to give Shannon a lesson. She needed it." Megan patted Celeste on her back. "You're not allowed to cry. If you do, my goddaughter wouldn't be happy in your belly either." Celeste finally laughed. "The fetus isn't fully developed yet. Besides, it might not be a daughter." "It's okay. It'll be the best if it's a baby girl. But I won't complain if it's a boy either." Megan caressed Celeste's tummy. Re
