Chapter 471 Doris Is Missing
Petunia could not refute Cecelia's words, so she shouted, "Cecelia, you..."
She angrily pointed her finger at Cecelia's nose but could not say a complete sentence.
Cecelia unceremoniously pushed her finger away and said, "Miss Taylor, please don't point at me! You have persecutory delusion. And your brain cannot function properly. I advise you to eat more walnuts!"
Then, she walked past Petunia and left the trading hall with her team.
Petunia was boiling with anger. She had never been humiliated like this before. Cecelia had insulted her in public without showing any respect. So, she was fuming.
Stanley stared after Cecelia until she disappeared out of the door.
Petunia turned to look at him and angrily asked, "Are you also fascinated by her?"
He retracted his gaze, leaned over with a smile, and whispered in her ear, "No. You are my only love!"
She asked, "Why haven't you made any progress yet?"
She was impatient with waiting and wondered when his honey trap would work.
"Who says there is no progress? You will see the effect soon. Wait patiently!"
Stanley fixed his collar and leisurely walked out with a confident smile.

After getting into the car, Cecelia called Adam to ask about their plan today.
"Verda and I brought the kids to the amusement park. They are having fun at the playground."
Adam stood outside the playground and looked back at the children playing inside. There were many children and parents. Every child had a wonderful time, so their laughter filled the playground.
"It must be tiring. Thank you!"
Hearing this, Adam smiled, "Taking care of my niece and nephews is not tiring! Cecelia, focus on your work! You can rest assured after leaving the kids to us!"
Suddenly, Cecelia heard a loud bang on the phone. Then, she heard children and adults screaming.
She asked in shock, "What happened?"
Hearing the sound, Adam looked back and saw the playground equipment malfunction. The roof had collapsed. And sparks and smoke were coming out. The accident looked nasty.
"There is an accident in the playground! I will look for the kids right now!"
After putting away his phone, Adam ran toward the playground with Verda and Everest.
Knowing there was an accident in the playground, Cecelia hurriedly ordered the driver to head there.
She was anxious, fearing something would happen to the kids. Seeing her so worried, Snow comforted her, saying, "Cecelia, calm down! They will be fine!"
"I hope so!"
Cecelia was ill at ease. She quickly called Remington and told him about the accident.
"What? An accident in the amusement park? I'll be there right away!"
After the call, Remington immediately ended the meeting and left the conference room.
The executives had overheard an accident in the amusement park, so they guessed his children might be there.
"Remington, I'll go with you!"
Hearing the bad news, Samson followed Remington out and headed to the amusement park with him at the fastest speed.
The giant indoor playground in the amusement park was in chaos now. No one had expected such an accident today.
Parents poured into the playground and anxiously looked for their children. The shouts of adults and the cries of children mixed, sounding noisy.
The roof had collapsed and blocked the way. So, the parents inside were working together to remove it. The amusement park's staff members had also joined the rescue effort.
The parents who could not get in were calling the police. The scene was chaos.
"Cyrus! Max! Andres! Doris!"
