Chapter 1200
Steven was such a sly fox.
Before, Leonard Hann had asked him for a picture of his cousin, but he didn’t give it.
If he had given it beforehand, this little Tibetan Mastiff would have jumped at him and taken a few bites.
Letting him get his heart broken on the spot was not only more thrilling, but with the elders present, he couldn’t make a fuss and could only hold his anger. After all, Leonard Hann wasn’t going easy on him in fights anymore.
He was ready to watch Leonard Hann lose his mind, but unexpectedly, he heard Leonard Hann laugh.
The laugh was neither cold nor warm; it was just weird.
Upon hearing his question, Leonard Hann reined in his laughter, “Nothing much just that the idol I’ve been crushing on turned out to be my own cousin. I find it quite amusing”
His grandma looked surprised, “Letti is your idol?”
Leonard Hann must have a good relationship with his grandma. When Old Mrs. Hann asked, his voice softened, “Granny, remember I told you I really liked a voice actress?”
Old Mrs. Hann was concerned about Leonard Hann’s matters, “You were talking about Celestial Haze?”
Leonard Hann nodded, “My cousin is Celestial Haze. She’s the voice actress I like.”
Although Old Mrs. Hann didn’t understand the Otaku culture, she knew that many things in Leonard Hann’s room were related to the voice actress named Celestial Haze.
She could even name quite a few characters voiced by Celestial Haze.
The thought of having “contact” with Celeste so early on made Old Mrs. Hann overjoyed.
“I told you prayers work. Look, the gods had already pushed Letti in front of us, we just didn’t realize it at the time.”
Grandpa nodded.
Only Steven was bummed out.
That’s it? Leonard Hann’s temper had improved this much?
Leonard Hann seemed to genuinely not mind and even started chatting with Celeste.
They were peers and had a lot of common topics.
Before, Leonard Hann had regarded her as a goddess. Although he liked her very much, he always acted aloof.
But now that the goddess had become his cousin, he was upset, but not enough to lose his composure.
Perhaps it was because he knew from the start that Celeste liked Liam, so his heartbreak and surprise didn’t last too long.
He now even felt somewhat grateful to Liam for interfering and preventing him from falling deeper in love. Otherwise, it would have been heart–wrenching.
Steven was always up to no good.
The meal was enjoyable. Grandpa was so happy that he drank a few more glasses, and in the end, he wanted to give her the bank card he had prepared for her.
Celeste naturally refused.
To make Celeste more comfortable, Her grandma changed the topic, “Letti, I saw the gift you brought. How did you know Grandpa likes coffee?”
Celeste chuckled, “A friend suggested it.”
She actually wanted to say Liam, but since no one mentioned her divorce, she didn’t know what everyone’s opinion of Liam was.
Chapter 1201
“Your friend has good taste. These are all good, and they’re not cheap.”
Celeste spoke before thinking, “It’s not as expensive as painting supplies.”
After she said that, her grandparents fell silent.
Celeste instantly realized she had misspoken.
Just as she was about to speak, she heard her grandfather say, “What she brought isn’t rare or anything. I think your gift is better”
Celeste was taken aback and gave an awkward laugh.
Celeste said, “I just didn’t expect painting supplies to be so expensive.”
What she meant was that such rare things were not cheap.
To her surprise, her grandfather directly opened the gift box from Janis and handed the paints to her, “Take a good look; take them home when you leave If you still want something else, come find me later. I have a lot in my study. You can take whichever one you like. If you like them all, I can move my entire study to J City for you.”
Celeste didn’t want to continue the conversation, “I was just curious. I don’t know how to paint, you keep them, Grandpa.” “You’re great at painting. Last time, Steven showed me your painting, it was amazing. He continued praising her, “Beautiful!” Celeste felt a little embarrassed. If her paintings were seen by professionals, they would probably laugh at her.
On the other hand, Liam’s painting skills were incredible.
She had seen Liam’s paintings; they were vivid with vibrant colors.

But Liam didn’t like to show off, so aside from those close to him, not many people have seen Liam’s paintings. Her grandpa loved painting, so he should be able to have a good conversation with Liam.

Her grandpa kept giving her grandma meaningful looks, so her grandma slapped him, cleared her throat, and finally said, “We thought about it, once all the procedures are done, we’ll hold a banquet to officially recognize you back into the Hann family and introduce you to everyone. But it’s just a plan; we wanted to ask what you think.”
Hiram also looked at her expectantly.
The elders didn’t make the decision themselves but made her wishes the priority, which touched Celeste deeply.
She had never felt this kind of respect from Shawn.
“Grandma, we can go with your plan, but I want to postpone the date. There are still some things I need to handle with the Campbell family.”
Her grandma sighed in relief, “That’s fine; take care of your stuff first. If you need any help, talk to Steven or Sheldon Hann. We’ll talk about it after you’re done.”
Celeste nodded, “Thank you, Grandma.”

Her grandma took her hand and patted it gently, “You’re a filial child. No matter what you end up doing. I believe your mom won’t blame you.” The “mom” her grandma was referring to was not her own daughter, but Caitlyn
Celeste was taken aback and suddenly hugged her grandma.
The old lady was a bit thin, but her embrace was incredibly warm.
Celeste buried her face in her neck, just like when she was hugging Caitlyn as a child.
She felt like she was finally at home again.
At the end of the gathering, her grandparents personally saw her downstairs, Steven got up to follow, but was stopped by Leonard Hann. “Don’t go yet”
Steven paused. Thinking it was time for a fight.
Turned out he was overthinking it. Leonard Hann pulled out a box from his bag. A buddy gave me this lighter, pretty snazzy, huh? I don’t smoke, so you
take it”
