The Argument Finally Erupts

1/4/2026

Cecilia Gu went out this time without her assistant, without anyone at all, just to keep her whereabouts a secret.

She hadn’t expected Charles Yin to react so quickly, to find out so soon that she wasn’t home.

After taking care of Mrs. Yun, Cecilia called Max Mo right away and asked him to get her a plane ticket.

She didn’t have her assistant, so she had to rely on Max Mo.

Max Mo was lightning fast—not only did he bring the ticket, he insisted on escorting Cecilia back himself.

This time, Cecilia didn’t argue.

Assistant Xiao Wang quickly replied, "The CEO said he’s coming right back! He asked you to wait for him at home!"

Cecilia smiled softly and said, "Got it. I’ll head back now."

Just in time, she had something to ask him too.

Looks like she really had to go home right away.

Cecilia could feel her parents’ anger and helplessness so deeply it hurt.

The Yun Family was everything to them, and now it was just... gone, bought out like it was nothing.

Sure, the other side had money to burn, but it felt more like a threat than a business deal.

Cecilia knew she had to sit down with Charles Yin and get to the bottom of what he was really after.

Max Mo’s connections were insane—he scored her the earliest flight and even brought a doctor along, just in case.

That’s why Cecilia didn’t turn Max Mo down this time.

Cecilia nodded. As long as Jane Gu was settled safely, she had nothing else weighing on her mind.

The only thing left was to face Charles Yin.

This was going to be a tough battle.

Cecilia could already imagine how brutal the outcome would be.

But there was no way out—she just had to grit her teeth and push forward.

They both owed each other an explanation...

Cecilia Gu finished arranging things for Mrs. Yun, then immediately contacted Max Mo, asking him to book her a flight.

She didn’t have any assistants with her now, so Max Mo was her only option.

Max Mo was quick—he not only brought her the ticket but insisted on escorting Cecilia himself.

This time, Cecilia didn’t say no.

Cecilia really needed someone to look after her now, given her condition.

If she didn’t need her assistants to cover for her, she never would’ve risked coming alone.

The risk was real, but things turned out okay—except for the Yun Family getting acquired.

Except... for the Yun Family getting bought out.

The Yun Family was her parents’ whole world, and just like that, it was gone.

Sure, the other side was loaded, but it felt more like a warning than anything else.

Cecilia felt she really needed to talk to Charles Yin and figure out what he was trying to do.

Every move she made had to be careful now.

Max Mo’s connections were no joke—he got the earliest flight and even brought a doctor to look after her.

That’s why she accepted Max Mo’s help this time.

After all, her belly was really getting big now.

She had to be extra careful with everything she did.

The plane landed in K City in no time.

Cecilia looked exhausted, and when she stumbled, she almost fell.
