Chapter 1041
Leonard glared at him, asking. “Did you call this guy?”
The agent naturally wouldn’t admit it, “I have no way of contacting him.”
Leonard didn’t buy it. Besides his agent, who else would leak the news of his date with his goddess?
“So how did he know about the dinner?”
The agent said, “He’s not blind, he’s always had his eyes on you. Did you know why Celeste kept messing up when you were filming intimate scenes with her?”
Leonard looked utterly clueless, obviously unaware
The agent, frustrated with his density, explained, “Because her ex–husband was holding the reflector right above your heads! If she and her ex really were like strangers, how could she not have the courage to kiss you in front of him?”
Leonard froze, a fuzzy image of a man in a mask appearing in his mind. The man’s eyes slowly overlapped with Liam’s
Leonard’s face tumed sour. He finally understood why Celeste was acting so strangely that day.
In the car, Celeste was tossing and turning like she had ADHD.
Liam held her shoulders, asking softly, “What’s wrong?”
Celeste frowned, whispering. There’s something under my neck.”
Liam was baffled. He reached out to feel, but found nothing.
So he reassured her. I’ve removed it, lie down”
Only then did Celeste lie down again, but then immediately sat up, frowning. There’s still something.”
Liam was confused, he looked around but couldn’t see what Celeste was talking about.
Just as Celeste was saying for the third time that there was something under her neck, Liam suddenly realized what was going on. He felt his trouser pocket and pulled out a ring
That was why Celeste kept saying there was something. Every time she lay down, the ring would press against the back of her neck, making her uncomfortable
Celeste looked at the ring, startled, “Why don’t you wear it on your hand, but keep it in your pocket?”
Liam looked down, quietly said, “Don’t you remember? We’re divorced, this is our wedding ring. I can’t wear it now
Celeste was slow to react, she didn’t hear the sadness in Liam’s words. She even raised her hand to show Liam, Tm not wearing it either”
Liam sighed, thinking it was pointless to reason with a drunkard.
Liam rubbed her face, whispering, “get some sleep”
Celeste covered her mouth, whispering in his ear, “Let’s go buy a new pair and wear them, secretly, don’t tell anyone”
Liam’s heart skipped a beat, he asked in a deep voice, “Under what pretext?”
Celeste tilted her head to think, then said, ‘do engagement rings sound okay?”
Feeling overwhelmed, Liam cleared his throat and said, “Okay”
Then he told Owen, “Go to the jewelry store”
“Not the jewelry store. Celeste said mysteriously, Tll take you somewhere.”
So when Owen parked the car near the university city, Celeste pulled Liam out of the car and headed towards the bustling crowd.
Celeste had the smell of alcohol on her, and passersby kept looking at her. Liam calmly stepped in front of her and put a mask on her
When there were many people, it felt suffocating to wear a mask. Celeste instinctively wanted to pull the mask down, but Liam stopped her, whispering, “Don’t let them see you, I’ll be jealous.”
