Chapter 1157
Nicolas was suspicious and felt that Celeste’s reaction was a bit off.
Judging by Jarred’s demeanor, his relationship with Celeste seemed more complicated than just classmates.
Nicolas wanted to say more, but Celeste tumed to Trisha and said, “Trisha, come get some food with me.”
“Oh, okay”
Once the ladies left, Nicolas whispered to Liam, “Your wife is acting weird. Normally, she can’t take her eyes off a good–looking guy, she should have been staring at Jarred the whole time, but she barely glanced at him and looked away as soon as she did. When has she ever been shy around handsome men?”
Liam clenched his lips.
He also noticed Celeste’s unusual reaction but still chose to defend her
“Which part of her looked shy to you? If she didn’t look, it just means she doesn’t find him attractive.”
Liam was so blindly protective of his girlfriend?
He was certain that if Celeste and Jarred had no history, he would change his name!
Holding the food tongs, Celeste gave Tnsha an egg tart.
Trisha immediately took it and started eating. “Letti, is Jarred the first love that you dated for two weeks and then broke up with?”
Seeing her reaction, Trisha was certain, “I knew it. Your reaction was weird. It hasn’t been that long since high school. How could you not remember your classmates? Especially someone as noticeable as him.”
Celeste felt a headache coming on, “Don’t say anything in front of Liam, or he’ll get upset again.”
Trisha said, “You should have told him sooner, Liam might not have cared that much, but you pretended not to know him. If I were Liam, I would be upset too.”
Then she suddenly asked. “Is your first love Liam’s type? You didn’t use Liam as his substitute, did you?”
Celeste’s eyelid twitched. “Have you been watching too much TV? What substitute? He and Liam are nothing alike, okay?”
Trisha wasn’t concerned about whether they were alike or not, and she was more curious, “Jarred is so handsome. He must have been one of the top heartthrobs at
your
Mool, night? How did you get him?”
Celeste was speechless, “Why couldn’t it be him chasing me?”
Trisha snorted, “If you looked like you do now in high school, I’d believe he chased you, but I’ve seen your high school pictures. You were at least 130 pounds back then, right? Did he chase you because you were fun?”
Celeste’s face fell. “I wasn’t 130, maybe 120 at most, and I’m tall, and I just had a bit more meat on my face, okay?”
“Who was chasing who?”
Celeste hesitated momentarily before saying, “I just casually confessed my feelings to him, I didn’t expect he would agree so easily. He was surprisingly easy to win overTM
“I don’t think your confession was casual at all.”
Suddenly, a voice came from behind. Celeste’s hand trembled, and the dish nearly fell off. The man reached out to steady the dish, lowering his head to look at her “Why did you pretend not to know me just now?”
Trisha’s mouth dropped open in surprise.
Oh my goodness, Celeste was caught red–handed by the guy himself!
That was senously embarrassing
She swallowed the egg tart in her mouth, sneakily pricking up her ears to listen to the conversation next to her
Celeste was so embarrassed that her toes clenched the ground tightly.
She lived by one principle. I won’t feel embarrassed. Only others will
She braved herself and said, “Your status has changed now We’re no longer in the same circle. I don’t want to give people the wrong impression.”
Jarred thought momentarily before asking, “Who would get the wrong impression? Liam? Haven’t you two divorced already?”
