Before Leonard could finish his sentence, Liam’s thumb was already pressing down hard, causing him to yell in pain.
Celeste chimed in, “You’re supposed to knead and press, not just press down
Liam replied softly, “Alright, you sit and rest for a bit.”
However, his pressure did not lessen.
Leonard winced in pain. “No need to press any more, I’m already…” pain–free!
He frantically signaled his agent, hoping he could promptly shoo this madman away, but the agent, upon seeing Liam’s impressive demeanor, instead advised Leonard, “As a man, just bear with it. It’ll be over soon.”
What a weak and timid agent!
The agent glanced at Celeste, then at Liam.
Their relationship seemed special. This man appeared noble and arrogant, but when talking to Celeste, his words were gentle and his gaze was filled. with affection.
He seemed no less than Leonard, and due to his mature and steady aura, he even appeared more outstanding.
The agent dared not speak to Liam, so he turned to Celeste and asked, “Ms. Campbell, are you married?”
Leonard, forgetting the pain for a moment, pricked up his ears.
Liam’s movement also slowed down, waiting to hear Celeste say “yes“.
But what Celeste said was, “No, I’m single.”
Leonard’s eyes lit up instantly.
Liam shut his mouth; this was within his expectations.
The agent then asked, “Then this gentleman is your…”
Celeste said, “He’s my ex–husband.”
Liam:…
This was beyond his expectations.
The agent’s lips trembled. “Ex… ex–husband?”
This word made Liam feel very uncomfortable. He gave the agent a cold look and added, “And also her current boyfriend.”
Celeste was speechless; she didn’t know she had a current boyfriend.
Seeing Celeste didn’t speak, Liam continued, “Medical bills, hospitalization expenses, compensation for lost wages–a lawyer will come to discuss with you later, make any demands you have; don’t hold back.”
Leonard, swinging between love and heartbreak, shut his mouth and said, “No need.”
Celeste said, “Go ahead, it’s his sister who splashed the hot water; you should sue, you should claim; don’t be soft–hearted.”
Leonard didn’t want to say anything more; he turned pale and said, “You guys go back; I’m tired.
So Celeste and Liam were asked to leave the ward.
After they came out, Liam asked, “How did you meet this little star?”
“We just met today”
Liam said jealously, “He’s really brave; he just met you and dared to block hot water for you.”
Celeste could hear the jealousy in his words. She glanced at Liam and said, “After all, he’s an actor performing with me; he might have gotten into his role early and really treated me as his girlfriend.”
Liam’s brow twitched. “He’s playing your boyfriend?”
Celeste nodded. “Handsome, right?”
Liam frowned. “Handsome, my ass, his legs are as long as a grasshopper’s!”
Celeste looked at the man who kept backbiting and said, “I think he’s pretty good–looking; broad shoulders, slim waist, long legs.”
Liam dismissed it, saying, “When I was twenty–three, I was better looking than him.”
Celeste ignored this childish guy and turned to ask, “Where’s Kaylee?”
Liam’s face became serious, “Someone has already been sent to find her. Before dawn, I’ll personally send her to the police station.” Celeste asked, “Will your mother agree?”
Liam said casually. “If she doesnt, she can take the blame for her daughter, as long as the police agree.
Celeste smiled slightly. “You doted on Kaylee the most; can you bear it?”
Liam looked at her and said, “The one I love the most is you.”
Celeste:..
She braced herself and said, “I’m discussing serious matters with you!”
Liam smiled and said, “If I hadn’t been soft–hearted and let her off the first time she made a mistake because of my mother’s plea, she wouldn’t have become like this. She was actually quite well– behaved when she was little. I don’t know why she’s become so impulsive and domineering now!”
Celeste chuckled softly: “Impulsiveness is no excuse for hurting others. She does things solely based on her own preferences and has no moral compass. She’s essentially a bad person.”
