All Chapters of Ms. York's Second Proposal: Chapter 261 - Chapter 270

It had been a few days since Celeste visited the villa. They finally came for her. The policeman standing at the door didn't seem ferocious. After showing his police tag, he said politely, "Ms. York, please follow us to the station." Celeste nodded. She stretched her arms out easily, allowing them to cuff her hands. The leading policeman was surprised by Celeste's calmness. He raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you scared?" Celeste put on a relaxed smile. "I forgot to pay the electricity bill yesterday.""You seemed ready for this." "I suppose so." She was mentally prepared for this. She would confess to anything, no matter what the police asked. She just had to conceal anything related to the help she got from those kind people around her. That included Megan, Phillip, Lewis, and most importantly, Damon. Charges for enticement of crimes could vary in terms of severity. Once she confessed, the police would probably ignore the people who had helped her. …Since Megan and Cele

Celeste was detained at a small temporary detention center south of Taverdale. According to the people who arrested her, Henry insisted that someone had enticed him to smuggle. She had a clear motive, so the police highly suspected her in this case. The room was small and narrow. There was no window either. When it was time to turn on all the lights in the center, there wasn't even a tiny light source in the room. After the door was closed, everything became pitch-black. Celeste was brought to the center this morning. She waited quietly on the chair to be sent on trial. But nothing happened even after she waited till night. Although she had been mentally prepared for this, she couldn't help feeling anxious when it actually happened. Nobody came to interrogate her. But there was someone who brought food for her. Seeing how she didn't touch the bread and soup from lunch, he asked if she didn't like the food out of kindness. His friendliness made Celeste feel like laughing. An

"Celeste York, what if I get angry and increase your sentencing?" Damon's eyes went cold instantly. He lost all desire, and his tone became icy. Celeste's face was still flushed. But she had gone back to her indifferent self. "You won't." "Even if I'm not your ex-wife and am just a regular woman who slept with you, you wouldn't do that." Living with him for a year made her understand Damon's personality somewhat. He was a natural-born leader, but he wasn't as cold as he appeared. He was decisive and assertive, yet he was kind deep down. They were similar in that aspect. It was just that Damon was more sensitive and considerate. Celeste, on the other hand, had developed a powerful sense of intuition since she was young. She wouldn't be bothered by trivial things at all. It wasn't bad for her to behave that way to live a good life. The reason why she dared to threaten Damon to divorce her with suicide was because she knew Damon wouldn't let her die. She won the bet. D

She wasn't a picky eater and had no food allergies either. But she had a feeling that Edna was the one who made this toast. The staff was startled. "I'll go ask." Soon, he actually brought a cup of espresso over. "Thank you. After I get released from the detention center, I'll send you some gifts." Celeste's smile grew wider. The coffee was just a test to see if the staff would oblige to what she said. It seemed that she was safe now. The crisis would be resolved soon. Not long after breakfast, someone yelled at the door. "Celeste York, you have a visitor." "Okay." Celeste followed the guard and walked outside. She knew who it was without anyone telling her. Technically speaking, inmates who hadn't been on trial weren't allowed to see any visitors. She wondered how people like them would be able to get their way. Celeste lifted her head to observe. The light on the surveillance camera was on. In the visitor's room, the two looked at each other for a long time. "Mega

Celeste only spent seven days at the detention center. There was no interrogation nor trial. On the seventh day, she was politely escorted out as if nothing had happened. This matter concluded with Henry being sentenced to 20 years of imprisonment and fines. Bernie's crime wasn't as serious, and he claimed ignorance. He received just one year of suspended sentencing. That meant that he would be absolved from the matter if he didn't commit any crimes for a year. Celeste knew Damon must have gotten involved for this matter to be solved swiftly. But she didn't know the extent of how much he did. She owed him too much. She couldn't repay him with anything at all. When Celeste exited the door of the detention center, Megan was already waiting outside. Megan made great preparations to welcome her. Dozens of expensive cars parked outside with a banner hung on them, celebrating Celeste's release from the detention center. Megan came out of the car and put on a crown for Celeste
