Chapter 450 Nothing Stops Mr. Nelson
“Is that so? However, the designs you claimed to have created are almost identical to a sample from one of our company’s designers.
“I don’t care who copied whom. I hope you can think about the original intention behind your designs. Don’t let yourself be used as a pawn and not even realize it!”
Cecelia stopped talking after a brief exchange, giving some face to Sam Cosby.
Sam greeted Cecelia, then took his sister away. After getting some distance, he asked, “What happened just now? Did your design sketches have a problem? Did you copy something?”
“I didn’t, Sam! No way! Don’t listen to her nonsense!”
While Fiona denied any wrongdoing, she couldn’t help but have doubts in her mind. She remembered that the design samples were from Petunia. Could it be that Petunia didn’t draw them?
How did the designs end up so similar to the Tangerine Group’s?

in the Peony Hall.
More guests continued to arrive, including Jimmy Bloom, who entered with a low profile, wearing a hat and a mask. He came with Stanley Wade.
Jimmy’s demeanor wasn’t particularly downcast, but due to the recent rumors, he had not planned to attend the event. It was Stanley that convinced him to come out for some relaxation.
Upon seeing Cecelia, Jimmy handed her a bouquet, saying, “Congratulations, Cecelia!”
Stanley also directed his gaze at Cecelia and extended his congratulations, saying, “Miss Linsey, congratulations on the great success of the Tangerine Group!”
“Thank you, thank you for coming. Please, come in!”
Cecelia welcomed them inside.
No one could see the dark side hidden behind Stanley’s smile. Using the opportunity of Jimmy’s incident, Stanley managed to smoothly integrate into Jimmy’s circle of acquaintances.
Cecelia was his target, and besides her, he planned to silently seize all of Jimmy’s connections.
As the celebration was about to begin, Cecelia looked around and didn’t spot Remington. Had he not arrived yet? Or had something happened to him?
Feeling concerned, she was about to contact him when she noticed a tall figure at the entrance holding a bouquet.
At first glance, she thought it was Remington, but as the person approached and moved the bouquet aside, she could see his face.
Someone recognized him!
“Mr. Bowman, the President of the Bowman Group, is here!”
“Mr. Bowman is here to show support as well!”
Many guests turned their attention to him, and who wouldn’t envy Cecelia? She always attracted a large number of outstanding industry leaders to her side.
Was this the rumored magnetic charm?
“Jersey? Why are you here?”
Cecelia was frustrated. She wished this man would stay in the hospital and not come out.
“You’re hosting an event, so of course, I have to come to support you! These flowers are for you!”
“Thank you. You should be resting.”
Cecelia accepted the flowers, but she also reminded him. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“Thank you for your concern. You go on with your event. Don’t worry about me. I’ll take care of myself.”
Jersey had already figured it out. Regardless of whom Cecelia married, his love for her was his own business. She didn’t have to reciprocate, and he would continue to support, protect, and love her.
Just then, there was a commotion at the entrance. Everyone turned to see a person in a large Teddy Bear costume entering.
The Teddy Bear was pushing a cart filled with flowers, balloons, and a multi-tiered cake with a “celebration” message written on it.
When Teddy Bear pushed the cake cart in front of Cecelia, Cynthia and Ariella gathered around.
“Wow, what a beautiful cake!”
Cynthia guessed that her brother had arranged this because she had helped pick it out!
“It must be the work of Mr. Nelson, right?” Ariella asked with curiosity.
“Definitely, sending a Teddy Bear is so creative! The bear is so cute! I want to hug it!”
Cynthia loved the chubby Teddy Bear and extended her arms to hug it, but the Teddy Bear playfully pushed her away with its chubby arms.
“Why is this bear like that?”
Cynthia was puzzled. How could it not allow hugging?
However, in the next moment, the chubby Teddy Bear embraced Cecelia tightly.
Cecelia realized what was going on when she removed the oversized headpiece from the bear costume. She discovered that the person dressed as Teddy Bear was none other than Remington.
“Remi?” When Cynthia saw that it was Remington inside, she understood why he had pushed her away earlier.
“Mr. Nelson!”
“Oh my, nothing stops Mr. Nelson!”
Everyone couldn’t help but be amused by his actions. Who wouldn’t want to make a handsome entrance? But today, Remington had transformed into an adorable character.
This comical display, could it not melt a woman’s heart?

Cecelia was taken aback. Who would have expected him to dress up as a Teddy Bear in such an environment?
“How do you like it? Didn’t expect it was me, right?”
Remington gazed at her with a smile, as if no one else was present. He just wanted to make her happy and didn’t care about being embarrassed.
Cecelia smiled and nodded, feeling her heart melt. She quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead. “Alright, change out of it quickly. You must be hot in there!”
People around them were unwittingly witnessing their show-off of affection. Jersey stood in the crowd, watching the scene. He deeply felt that the gap between himself and Remington was significant.
Remington’s love for Cecelia was the kind of love that could make a woman wholeheartedly devoted to him.
Seeing Cecelia laugh so happily, Jersey could only silently offer his blessings. What else could he do? Sigh…
With the help of the staff, Remington took off the Teddy Bear costume and continued to entertain the guests with Cecelia.
Cecelia represented the company and gave a speech on stage, with Remington and everyone else standing below, watching her.
The celebration was successful, allowing everyone to network and expand their connections.
Stanley, taking advantage of this opportunity, made several acquaintances among the bigwigs. But he found it challenging to get closer to Cecelia because Remington was always protecting her.
The atmosphere was lively as people mingled, and a waiter with a tray weaved through the crowd, heading toward Cecelia and Remington.
His gaze was fixed on Remington, and he held a concealed weapon under the tray, aimed directly at Remington.
No one noticed the waiter’s suspicious actions, except for one person.
That person was Jersey, who had been observing from the sidelines. His vantage point allowed him to have a better view of the entire scene.
When he saw the waiter’s strange behavior, he didn’t think twice. He quickly rushed into the crowd.
“Remington! Cecelia! Watch out!”
Bang!
With Jersey’s shout, the waiter’s gun went off.
Jersey’s last move was a leaping dive. He was quite far from the waiter, and the only way he could protect Cecelia was by using his own body.
The gunshot startled everyone, and the guests began to scream and scatter.
Remington instinctively shielded Cecelia to keep her safe. From within his embrace, Cecelia saw Jersey on the ground and cried out, “Jersey!”
