All Chapters of Ms. York's Second Proposal: Chapter 421 - Chapter 430

"No? Weren't you enjoying yourself at the club?" Damon's smile was terrifying. Celeste wanted to escape from him. "Not really…" She protested in a tiny voice. "Having drinks just like this is no fun. Why don't I pour some of that onto my abs?" Damon mimicked the tone of a male escort and acted coquettishly toward Celeste. He poured half a glass of whiskey for himself. Holding the glass, he leaned in closer. All those words from the male escorts were directed toward Megan! It had nothing to do with her at all! Celeste was so anxious that she broke out into a cold sweat. She felt wronged. "Those people aren't even the slightest bit manly. They had so much makeup on their faces. How did you manage to talk to them at all?" Damon sat to Celeste's right. He turned around and faced her. Stretching his arm out, he trapped her into the corner of the couch. The two were in such close proximity that they could feel each other's breaths. Celeste could even smell the familiar citr

Was she drunk, or was she just mocking him? Winston stared at Megan with a frown. "Did I tip you already? I'm so drunk, I can't remember." Hearing no reply from Winston, Megan mumbled. She then casually pulled a stack of cash from her leather jacket and stuffed it into Winston's hand. "Is this enough? If not, I'll transfer more to you tomorrow." Holding the stack of cash, Winston laughed helplessly. Did he just get hired as a prostitute? The group of male escorts were taken aback as well. They didn't know Winston, but they had seen enough in life. They saw a Rolex around his wrist as Winston held Megan's arm. The money needed to buy it would be enough for any commoner to spend in a lifetime. How could he be a male escort here? He was probably Megan's partner, likely here to catch her in the act. The male escort who thought he could spend the night with Megan became disappointed. He was overwhelmed by Winston's overbearing demeanor and could only stand idly to the side

Megan was confused when Winston carried her.What was he doing? Did she do anything that made Winston misunderstand her yesterday? Why would he repeatedly give her hope if he didn't love her? It was a shame she wasn't the same Megan who was careful around him anymore. Winston carried Megan all the way to the couch. He found a quilt and covered her legs with it. Only then did he say, "You wore those clothes outside in such cold weather and had so much to drink. You even stood barefoot on the floor. Aren't you afraid that you might get sick?" Megan didn't answer him. She merely watched his actions without a word. After a long while, she suddenly laughed. "If it were me from the past, my heart would've raced out of my chest when you carried me like that." Her in the past? In other words, she didn't feel anything from his actions anymore. Winston understood the underlying meaning behind her words. The smile on his face stiffened. "Did I… make you suffer a lot back then?"

It was an important day for the Belasco family when Lilian was discharged from the hospital. Jane instructed the maids to hang a banner in the garden and prepare thousands of balloons. Flowers were usually expensive in the winter, yet they bought ten thousand fresh flowers and placed them in the middle of the garden. When Celeste reached home in the evening, she was taken aback. Although they invited no guests, the decorations might be even grander than Celeste and Caleb's banquet. What were they trying to do? Welcome a queen back to her castle? Even their own granddaughter didn't receive such treatment. She avoided all the petals on the ground and walked inside. She then happened upon the scene of the family having a great time together. "Cece is back. You should come over and eat." Lilian was the first to welcome her warmly. Lilian was someone who tore her best friend and Winston apart, so it was hard for Celeste to look at her positively. She merely forced a smile.

Anyone would feel uncomfortable from being slandered for no reason. Besides, Lilian had been using her illness to gain sympathy. Jane and Winston's stance was that Celeste shouldn't be upset over someone who was on the verge of death. It was as if it was okay for Lilian to make a mistake, but it was wrong of Celeste to not forgive Lilian.The next day, Celeste didn't have dinner at the Belasco residence. Her excuse was that she had to work overtime. Damon was sensitive enough to know what was going on. When she appeared at his place during dinnertime, he could guess she had a conflict with the Belasco family. But since she said nothing, he didn't ask anything either. He just told Edna to serve more of Celeste's favorite dishes. When it was difficult for her to fall asleep, he'd hug her until she drifted off. Damon's meticulous care made Jane seem neglectful toward Celeste. Celeste finally nestled in Damon's arms and sighed. "You're the best to me, after all. You really d
