Chapter 837
Liam vented his frustration on his friend, “He’s going to the restroom so much, he might have kidney problems.”
Just as Celeste was about to say something, her phone beeped. She looked down and saw that someone had transferred fifty thousand into her account. The sender was Shawn, with a note: [Take care of yourself, let me know if you need anything]
Celeste’s eyes widened
Had Shawn gone mad?
Since her marriage, Shawn had never voluntarily given her money. The last time he spent money on her was when he was forced to at a jewelry show, and he reluctantly spent a million on a bracelet for her.
“What’s up?” Seeing Celeste frowning, Liam asked
Celeste came back to her senses and said, “Shawn transferred fifty thousand to me
Liam was silent for a moment.
“He called me earlier, wanted to adopt me.” Celeste felt nauseous thinking about Shawn’s pretentious words, “He wants to build a father daughter relationship with me using money, how generous”
Liam frowned and asked, “Did you agree?”
“Of course not!” Celeste rolled her eyes. “I’m not a fool. He’s willing to spend money on me only because he thinks there’s still a chance for us to get back together and wants to maintain a good relationship with Quantum Enterprises. He thinks that now that I’m an illegitimate daughter, to marry you, I need a decent status He graciously wants to adopt me, give me the Campbell family status. He
thinks I would have a hard time refusing. He’s testing me now. Who would want such a terrible status? If I can’t get marned, then I won’t, who cares!”
Liam said, “I think getting married is better, you have legal protection.”
“I’m talking about serious stuff!” Celeste said.
“I’m also talking about serious stuff, consider it.” Liam grinned.
Celeste chose to ignore this topic, “Shawn, this stingy man, surprisingly transferred fifty thousand to me. I doubt he’s defrauded someone, otherwise, why would he be so generous?”
Liam’s eyes flickered.
Not long after, Nicolas arrived.
As soon as he got in the car, he started teasing Liam, “Liam, you don’t want to drive anymore? Come, I’ll drive.“.
Liam retorted with just one word – Scram
“I’m living a boss’s life with a driver’s fate.” Nicolas lamented
After saying that, he fastened his seatbelt and started the car.
Liam was asked on the road, “Friday is Molly’s birthday party, are you going?”
“I’m not going‘ Liam said.
“Ms. Campbell, how about you?” Nicolas asked.
“I don’t know Ms. Fletcher well Celeste said.
Nicolas frowned, “If you both are not going, then what’s the point of me going? I’m not going either.”
Liam originally planned to have a meal together, but Owen called and needed him at the company, so the meal was canceled.
After dropping Liam off at the office, Nicolas drove Celeste back to Grandview Heights
“Bang-”
Naomi slammed her cup on the floor, barking. “Are you trying to scorch me or what? It’s boiling!”
Mr. Hale just walked in, only to see Naomi ripping into her assistant
The assistant, looking as pale as a sheet and pitiful, was getting a real earful
Mr. Hale frowned, “What’s up?”
