My Rich Hot and Infertile or Maybe Not Husband

Chapter 221

Celeste put on her coat and said with a smile, “Actually, I don’t have much going on these two weeks, so you can hit me up whenever you need help.

To thank her, Michaela wants to take her out for dinner after work.

Celeste refused.

Even though she came to help, in the end, she was doing it for herself. Besides, she wasn’t that close to Michaela, so having dinner together would probably be pretty awkward.

Celeste dropped Janetta off at home and drove to the Reed family mansion.

As the car got closer and closer to the mansion, she started to feel terrified again.

Being married to the Reeds for so many years, she wouldn’t have had a place there if it weren’t for the protection of Sienna. But in the end, the person who cared about her the most was the one she hurt, and she didn’t even have the courage to apologize.

Skyler’s desire for children was primarily rooted in securing her status within the family, whereas Sienna harbored a genuine affection for children. This made the deception all the more devastating for her.

Celeste’s car lingered near the Reed family mansion for a long time, but she ultimately turned around and left..

At the mansion, Mr. Robinson came in and said, “Madam, Celeste has left.”

Sienna stopped fiddling with her chess pieces and said, “She dares to fake an illness, but doesn’t have the guts to admit her mistake?”

Mr. Robinson chuckled, “You know everything, Madam. You wanted Celeste to participate in the drawing ceremony, but if she didn’t go, she would be disrespectful to you. If she went, Skyler would probably be resentful. Wanting to avoid offending both sides, there was no choice but to feign illness But you almost got cheated, didn’t she?”

The old woman snorted in disgust, “I feared she might unknowingly be pregnant. Never did I imagine that girl would resort to deceiving even me, secretly taking contraceptives! I allowed her to make public appearances, intending to assert her position within the Reed family. With my backing, what could she possibly have to fear?”

The maid came in with some supplements and couldn’t help but smile, “Skyler is your daughter-in-law, so you’re not afraid. But Celeste sees Skyler as her mother-in-law, so she doesn’t dare to offend her. After all, she cares about Liam’s feelings”

Sienna let out a sigh, “My eldest son’s wife is ambitious but narrow-minded, and impatient. Celeste, on the other hand, is resilient and smart, but just too young. My body deteriorates every year, and the day I’m gone, I’m afraid Liam will be bullied by these people.”

Mr. Robinson whispered, “Madam, I think you’re overthinking it. They’re all family it won’t turn that bitter.”

She laughed and said no more, waving her hand, “It’s time to rest.”

After leaving the mansion, Celeste went to Mercy Hospital.

Caitlyn’s situation hadn’t changed. Ever since she had a reaction to the opera, there had been no other signs of improvement.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Carer Elaine, as per Celeste’s instructions, had played every opera recording. Caitlyn showed no response, but her heart rate fluctuated when she heard a few cassettes.

Elaine played those cassettes repeatedly, but alas, Caitlyn’s reaction remained the same.

Celeste was not disappointed after hearing this, because recovering from a vegetative state was very unlikely anyway. Miracles don’t happen easily. She looked through the cassettes that Elaine picked out and found no common thread, neither related songs nor the same composer.

Just then, Elaine asked, “Celeste, can you help me download this app? My son needs me to register and send him a screenshot, but it keeps failing” Celeste responded, “Let me take a look.”

Realizing the issue, she informed Elaine, “Your phone storage is full, so it can’t download. Delete some unused stuff, and it should work.”

“I don’t know how to do that on these smartphones.”

“I’ll do it for you*

As she cleared phone storage, Elaine accidentally knocked the cassettes onto the floor.

Elaine moved to gather them up, but Celeste intervened. She had noticed that each marked cassette bore a unique number.

Celeste picked them up, checked the rest, and confirmed that only these cassettes had numbers. This couldn’t be a coincidence After some thought, she snapped a photo of the cassettes, wiped the numbers off, and put them back away.

At Pinecrest Manor, Martha found Liam on the couch late at night.

Liam asked if Celeste was back yet.

Martha offered to call her, but Liam simply said, “No need

“So why don’t you head upstairs and rest? The living room is too chilly at night, don’t catch a cold

“It’s fine, don’t worry about me. You go get some rest”

Seeing that her words were having no impact, Martha decided to fetch Liam a cup of hot water. “The madam is truly crossing the line! It was wrong of her to secretly take birth control pills, and now she disregards everyone’s feelings by staying out this late. You’re injured and waiting for her – it would surely break Skyler’s heart if she knew.”
