Lahat ng Kabanata ng Ms. York's Second Proposal: Kabanata 721 - Kabanata 730

The thought of Celeste reminded Damon of the night he'd fed her. Those eyes of hers were filled with a myriad of emotions. God knows how much self-control he had to muster to avoid trapping her by his side again.She was pregnant, and her arm was injured. Still, she managed to create such a big commotion. Her ways were getting more and more brutal.Despite her delicate face, which seemed unable to withstand the ordeal, she was able to make such an extreme decision. It was clear that she had grown in the years they hadn't seen each other.He had known that this woman had the features of a fox but the personality of a wolf.With these thoughts, Damon didn't comment on the situation.Instead, he quietly had someone investigate the account that exposed the incident. After several twists and turns, they traced it to a well-known businessman in Marksville, someone Kenny had mentored and could be considered a devoted follower.Considering Kenny's swift departure after Diego's downfall,

That night, Celeste was taken to the hospital by ambulance.At that time, the brawl between Lavinia Luxe and Opulent Prowl employees was a hot topic. Celeste was carried into an ambulance by a group of medical personnel, and immediately drew media attention, and soon the hospital was swarmed with reporters."Is Ms. York's hospital visit related to the incident earlier today? When will she be available for an interview?" the media asked as soon as Celeste's assistant stepped out."Ms. York is emotionally unstable and has affected her pregnancy. Please leave."The assistant spoke according to Celeste's script. Then, with a cold expression, she went back to report.Following that, the news quickly spread that the Lavinia Luxe director had so angered the Opulent Prowl CEO that she had affected her pregnancy. It had become a major talking point."Do you need help with this?" Jasper, who worked in media, quickly sent various screenshots of news articles to Damon.He added, "By the way

She had been careful enough to try to make no mistakes at all points, yet the problems she had encountered this time were nothing short of an unmitigated disaster.Opulent Prowl didn't just have a domestic market. It also had a stable overseas market and customer base. The issue arose in the overseas market.Celeste learned about this problem from Spencer, with whom she hadn't been in contact for a long time.It was past 2 a.m. when a WhatsApp voice call came through, and Celeste was in a deep sleep.She woke up from her dream. Her head ached, and her mind was in turmoil.Why was he calling at this hour? Didn't he know there was a six-hour time difference between Carlino and Franciso?In the faint light of her phone screen, Celeste groggily pressed the answer button before she could even say hello."Who selected the models for today's fashion show in Franciso? Who was in charge?" Spencer questioned straight away. His tone sounded unusually serious.Celeste's sleepiness was gone

"Yes, mommy. I'm safe here with dad and grandma," Leo reassured Celeste."Take care of yourself and my little sister. Everything will be alright."Just like Celeste, he had assumed that the baby she was carrying was a girl.In moments like this, Celeste truly appreciated the advantages of having a brilliant child. He was intelligent and perceptive, able to sense danger, and less likely to be manipulated.Of course, the downside was also apparent. He tended to overthink and internalise his worries."Leo, I have faced many challenges before, and I've always managed to overcome them. You need to trust that I can turn bad situations into good ones," she said gently to Leo.He responded with a soft "mm.""This isn't a big issue. I will handle it smoothly.""Mm.""So don't worry too much. If you worry, I will feel uneasy too."Being open and honest was the best way to deal with a genius child. This was something Celeste had learned over time.If she hid things from Leo, it would o

Hence, Liam drove the car away under Damon's instructions.The car passed by Celeste and drove further away, and she felt a wave of relief wash over her.No matter the circumstances, people always care about how they appear to those they care about, even now when she was pushed to her limits and feeling utterly lost."Let's go, we should head back." Her female assistant came over to support her. She then led her into the car and drove her home.Meanwhile, in Franciso, Winston and Megan sent a message confirming that Henry's people were behind the chaos.The three models had taken a large sum of money from Henry to take the risk at such an event. Although Lavinia Luxe said they had nothing to do with it, Winston and Megan didn't believe them."I've handed over the evidence we found to the investigation team and have been posting the results on major platforms. Opulent Prowl should be able to resume operations soon," Winston said.Looking at the evidence Winston had gathered, Cele
