Liam’s eyebrows furrowed, and he suddenly wanted Nicolas to shut up.
“Then… should I go?”
She tentatively asked Liam.
Liam glared at her, “If you want to go, just go. What are you looking at me for?”
“Oh,” said Celeste, asking for more details, “What time the day after tomorrow?”
Nicolas said, “Around 7 or 8 in the evening. Luminous pearls, of course, must be seen at night for their beauty to be properly appreciated. Be ready by 6:30, and I’ll pick you up and take you there.”
Having made these arrangements, Nicolas went offline, and the room fell silent. Celeste hadn’t had a chance to say the things she came in to say, so she just stayed in the study.
But Liam was starting to find her annoying.
He glanced at her and said indifferently. “Is there anything else?”
“No, you do your work. I’m here if you need anything.”
Liam said coldly. “Your presence is affecting my work.”
Celeste’s mouth twitched. She held back her anger and serviently said, “The doctor told you not to overexert yourself when recovering from an injury, Mr. Reed. You’ve been in the study for hours. Can I massage your shoulders?”
Liam looked at her with confusion. “What are you up to?”
Celeste’s pretend kindness crumbled at the harsh words, “Liam, can’t you see the sincerity in my eyes? I feel guilty for your injury, and I want to make it up to you. If you don’t want me to, fine!”
Liam looked at her and asked, “Was last night’s incident also to make up for it? Using your body for compensation?”
Upon hearing this, Celeste was speechless. She grunted, blushing instantly, “Last night was an accident!”
“An accident?” Liam thought for a moment, then said, “How come I recall that last night, when I asked you if we should stop, you hugged me even closer and said no?”
As he spoke, he looked at her slender legs and commented, “Your legs were quite strong, too”
Now the flush had extended down her neck. She turned away angrily, wanting to leave. Liam grabbed her wrist and said in all seriousness, “Didn’t you want to massage my shoulders?”
This rascal!
Right now, Celeste just wanted to pour the milk all down his throat to shut him up. She enjoyed the thought before eventually calming down.
Skyler Reed had already scolded her for accidentally hit Liam’s nose last time, causing it to bleed. If she were to do more harm to Liam this time, Skyler would definitely be angry.
Besides, she didn’t come here to argue.
After hesitating for two seconds, she obediently went behind Liam and massaged his shoulders.
Although Celeste was skinny, she had a surprising amount of strength in her hands. She and her classmates used to do massages for each other all the time to relieve their exhaustion after practice.
Liam half-closed his eyes, obviously already enjoying it.
Celeste felt like the timing was right, so she whispered, “Mr. Reed, do you know Actor Z?”
Liar frowned, “Who?”
“You know, that super famous actress who played the forensic scientist in that crime drama that aired this year We even watched it together”
Liam thought for a moment. He couldn’t remember at all what was on TV, but he did recall watching the show together and the male lead dying Celeste was bawling her eyes out on the couch, and when she woke up the next morning, her eyes were swollen like two peaches. He still couldn’t remember
what the show was about
“What happened?”
Celeste said quietly, “That actress got completely resisted by the whole internet
