Chapter 821: 006 Celia Wade is here_7

"Alright then, Uncle Lin told me he helped you find an expert from overseas to do your surgery, and Uncle Meng said that experts abroad do a better job than those in the country. So, my advice is to follow their arrangements for now and talk about everything else after the surgery. As for now, I’ll be the one to sign for your surgery. Do you have any objections?"

Celia didn’t argue with him. She wanted him to have the surgery, so she directly shifted the conversation to the surgery itself.

"Hmm, I have no objections, as long as you are with me." Besides, the thought of having her sign for him made him even less likely to object. If it were Marcus Parker and Ellie Wilton signing, he thought he might have flatly refused.

"Of course, I’ll always be with you. We have a lifetime to keep each other company. So, without my permission, you’re not allowed to be in any danger," Celia demanded authoritatively.

Jordy’s radiant eyes were fixed on her, shining as if they were about to pull Celia into them.

As they looked at each other, their heads involuntarily leaned closer and closer until Celia’s phone suddenly rang, startling her.

She answered the call, and it turned out to be Axel calling to wish her a Happy New Year, then he demanded money over the phone, calling her stingy. He had thought she would go to her grandparents’ home for the New Year’s Eve dinner. After eating with the Hawkins Family, he had the driver take him to his grandparents’ just to wish her a Happy New Year’s, only to find he had made the trip in vain.

So, Axel naturally started complaining on the other end of the phone.

"Okay, okay, I’ll send you money. Just wait," Celia, unable to withstand this persistent little devil, ended the call and opened Whatsapp to send Axel some money.

A substantial red packet of six hundred sixty-six, symbolizing great fortune for the coming year.

Axel claimed the money immediately and sent back a thankful emoji.

Celia shook her head, laughing at this little money-grubber. She wondered who he learned it from—it surely must be from his dad, as Carolline Ruiz was not that greedy.

Since she had given Axel a red packet, Celia casually opened another Whatsapp Group and sent several packets there as well, with everyone in the group happily scrambling for them.

Even Carolline, who was on her honeymoon, joined in the fray. Seeing her grab for red packets too, the chat exploded with excitement, and Celia joined in the fun. They switched to voice messages as typing was too slow.

They all urged Carolline to send a big packet and then scrambled for it frantically, adding to the merriment.

Jordy simply sat on the sofa, watching Celia’s joyous behavior, a spontaneous smile spreading across his lips.

He was happy for Celia, surrounded by such lovable friends. He didn’t even know if he had friends before, but he didn’t care. Having Celia by his side was all that mattered.

Celia was lucky with the packets, claiming the title of "luckiest hand" each time. Megan Clifton wasn’t pleased since her own luck seemed to be the worst. People say that pregnant women carrying a "ball" are supposed to be lucky, so why had all the good luck gone to Celia?

Celia heard Megan’s complaints and burst into laughter, replying with a tease: "Just hurry up and unload that ball, and the title of ’luckiest hand’ will be yours."

Everyone in the group laughed and teased even more.

Then Megan indeed groaned a couple of times before going silent for a lengthy period.

Following that, the conversation shifted from money to Megan herself.

Celia: "She’s not really about to give birth, is she? Oh no, I’m not in G City."

Carolline: "Weren’t you celebrating New Year’s Eve with us? If you’re not in G City, where are you?"

Avery: "Where else could she be? Wherever Jordy is, that’s where she’ll be."

Carolline (shocked): "What, Jordy is awake? Are you two together? Let him talk to me."

Only then did Celia remember that she hadn’t told Carolline about Jordy waking up because she didn’t want to disturb her honeymoon. Now, thanks to Avery’s big mouth, she had let it slip without warning.

With the call on speaker, Jordy naturally heard Carolline’s voice. It seemed he and Celia had mutual friends before.

Celia: "Okay, wait for me."

Celia walked over and asked Jordy to chat with Carolline on Whatsapp for a bit.

After a while, Jordy’s voice emerged, first wishing everyone in the group a Happy New Year and then speaking specifically to Carolline: "Carolline, I don’t remember anything. I’ve forgotten you and Celia, but I will try my best to recover my memory quickly."

Carolline: "..."

Two minutes of deep silence followed from her end, and then Carolline slowly responded: "No worries, Jordy."

Celia pursed her lips.

The group quieted down because of Jordy’s amnesia.

Then Megan’s anguished cries cut through: "It hurts so much; damn it, why did this girl choose today to be born?"

The somber mood was broken just like that, and everyone began to chatter again.

Celia remained silent until Andy reported the joyous news in the middle of the night: they had a son.

The group offered congratulations, so the long-standing battle between Megan and her mother-in-law ended in defeat.

Megan’s mother-in-law wanted a grandson, while Megan herself wanted a granddaughter, and the two had been at odds over this for a long while, finally reaching a verdict.

It looked like Megan was in for another period of gloom.

"Feel like setting off fireworks?" Celia joined in the ribbing, until Jordy’s voice reached her ears once more.

It was then Celia noticed that Jordy was dressed in outdoor clothes, his garments and hair dusted with snowflakes. So, it was snowing outside?
