Mark, who was excited to hear the news, had offered to help care for Celine if she returned to the Fletcher Residence, but she preferred to live at Sophia’s—her house was spacious, had clean air, and there were more people around. Celine therefore decided to move in with Michael. Sophia’s house had practically turned into a mini version of the Edwards Residence. A number of individuals who depended on Cooper had moved in, including Derek, Vincent, Justin, Dimon, and a few others. Cooper, as the leader of this branch of the Edwards Family, was therefore excited to hear about Celine’s pregnancy. Her baby belonged to the Edwards, after all. They had even discussed the child’s surname—Celine’s first child would be a Fletcher, while her second child would be an Edwards.
Now that Celine was in her forties, it was hard for her to get pregnant. Both Justin and Michael acted as if they were preparing for a war as they hurriedly increased the number of helpers that surrounded Celine. However, Celine was still as energetic as a child—she ran all over the place with the level of excitement that was equivalent to three huskies’. Cooper couldn’t help but recall the past whenever he glanced at Celine. The Celine that he had met when Mark first introduced them to one another was a totally different person from the woman she was right now!
Although both Sophia and Celine had lost their memories after Phantom Wolf used their brainwashing techniques on them, Celine was still as innocent as a young baby even after being in recovery for nearly a year. Sophia, on the contrary, was maturing at a rapid pace. Cooper knew that Phantom Wolf had brought Sophia along when they were trying to avoid getting caught by the Fletchers. He knew that Sophia had been brought to dark, illegal places that were hidden deep within society… Celine was protected the entire time, but Sophia didn’t have the chance to remain innocent. Cooper now felt a pang of guilt when he looked at Sophia. He sometimes wondered how much his own daughter had to suffer before she turned into the cold-blooded, vicious woman she was right then. How I wish she could just be a protected little baby forever!
A while after Celine found out that she was pregnant, Sarah abruptly fainted at work one day. After Sarah got herself checked, it was revealed that she was pregnant for 4 weeks. She got a Caesarean for her previous childbirth, so she was supposed to wait for 4 years before she could get pregnant again. Fortunately, it had been 4 years when she found out about her second pregnancy. Due to all the stress she experienced at work, she had been a little more sexually active at home as a way of relieving her stress. They forgot to use protection one night, which then led to her unexpected pregnancy. Harry was overjoyed; he happily prepared a closetful of tiny clothes for the baby, and he kept pestering Daniel for him to use his divination techniques in altering his fate—Harry wanted a chubby little daughter!
Everyone’s gaze fell on Sophia’s flat stomach. Unfortunately, the doctor didn’t sound too optimistic about her situation. Back when Phantom Wolf kidnapped her, Sophia had given birth in a dirty, chaotic environment; she was then forced to walk for long hours in order to escape immediately after she gave birth. She never got the chance to go through postpartum confinement, and her body was too damaged for her to get pregnant. The chances were simply too low.
Carmen 2.0, or a Carmen 3.0, was nothing more than a dream to them. Sophia didn’t seem to recognize how hopeful everyone else was for a Carmen 2.0 in their lives, as all she could think of was her own work. After they got rid of Nicholas as their spokesperson, Sophia quickly found a replacement. Since the job of being Dragon Eye’s spokesperson was an amazing opportunity, she chose to benefit her own people. Hence, she got Drake to sign the agreement as their new spokesperson.
‘The Winter Breakthrough’ premiered just a while before the Dragon Eye phones were released on the market. Everything came together perfectly—they could promote Drake and boast about the movie, while Drake could promote the phone to the public. Michael was the one who recognized Drake’s talents. In the past, Drake was merely a bodyguard at Mitchell International Energy and Technology, but he was immediately invited to sign a contract with a reality show after he finished filming for ‘The Winter Breakthrough’. He then formed a duo with Ashton to go on the second season of ‘Where Are We Going, Bro?’ as siblings. He quickly rose to fame after that, showing great potential and chance of surpassing Nicholas’ fame while also providing Ashton with greater exposure. Sophia was pleased with her choice to use Drake as their spokesperson—she didn’t want such a great opportunity to be left to the hands of a stranger. Furthermore, Sophia thought that Drake was a lot more suited than Nicholas as their spokesperson. At least Drake’s actually talented. He never had plastic surgery, and his acting skills are recognized! This fits well with the image of our phone—we’re classy, skilful, and high in quality!
After selecting the new spokesperson, Sophia quickly began on her plan for revenge! Since Nicholas was the one who started all of this, she chose to target him first. She didn’t have anything against him; she knew that he was nothing more than a pawn in the game of chess they were playing. Unfortunately, since the person who guided this piece had steered him to create chaos on Sophia’s land, she would have no mercy for him! It was an easy job to tarnish the reputation of a celebrity. All she had to do was move a few of her fingers around. Sophia had done this a number of times, and she was very familiar with it.
…
Serpent held their celebratory dinner at the Majestic Hotel on their scheduled date. Under Lucy’s guidance, Serpent had managed to achieve never-before-seen numbers on their mobile phone sales in Cethos; they’d even successfully defeated one of their largest enemies, Dragon Eye. The Serpent’s headquarters expressed their appreciation toward Lucy, and they even arranged for gifts to be presented to her during the celebratory dinner. Lastly, Serpent invited Alice to join them for their celebratory dinner as they claimed that it was their manner of expressing how apologetic they felt toward her.
