Chapter 1151
He usually played it cool, but once he started performing, he became charming.
If Liam just sat there doing nothing, Celeste was already attracted to him, let alone when he made the first move.
Celeste suppressed the slight upward curve of her lips and secretly took the gift box from under the table, “I just slightly forgot to remind you, and you prepared such an expensive gift. Is money like leaves on trees to you?”
Liam answered in a low voice, “It’s not that expensive.”
Celeste pinched the high–end package of the gift box and glared at him, “And you call this not expensive.”
Nicolas just got a short end of the stick from Celeste, and he was bound to regain his dignity from Liam.
After all, if he messed with Liam, Liam would, at most, gave him a few words. But if he dared to bully Celeste, Liam would retaliate
So he naturally had to take revenge on Liam
So he started to stir up trouble. “It’s just because he has no experience with housework and doesn’t know that the cost of living is high. The fast time Lyman Rowley got married, he booked the entire venue. Simon Rowley even took a few bottles of red wine when he left. Each bottle thousands. Do you know how much he spent that night?
“Six figures! Do you know what the six figures mean? It’s enough to buy a Maserati or a Hermes crocodile skin bag, or even pay down a h the city’s edge! Six figures! You could spend a thousand a day, and it would last you half a year, and he spent it all in one go!”
Liam’s forehead twitched, “Quit your yapping!”
Nicolas snorted. “I’m not stirring up anything. I’m just stating facts! Celeste was there that day, and she saw everything. Lyman Rowley is our friend, and it’s okay for you to be generous. But today, who the hell is Shawn?
When you divorced her, he immediately kicked her out of the Campbell family and cut ties with her. And you still give him such expensive gifts, why? Do you think it was right for him to kick her out? Are you endorsing his actions by giving gifts?”
Celeste had almost forgotten about Liam spending money like water at Lyman Rowley’s wedding. But now that Nicolas had brought it up, st sorry once again.
He was not good at drinking, got drunk easily, and when he was drunk, he was even easier to provoke.
She wondered if someone might set him up to get drunk and then trick him into selling the company.
In fact, Celeste’s thought was pure overthinking.
Liam knew he was a lightweight, so he never drank excessively on formal business occasions. The occasional indulgence was only during gatherings with familiar friends. After all, with his current status, he didn’t need to build connections through drinking
on
Seeing Nicolas stirring up trouble and Celeste starting to frown frequently, Liam’s expression immediately became serious, “If you keep stirring up trouble, do you believe I will spill all your secrets?”
Nicolas paused and immediately shut his mouth.
