Chapter 1205
Her view of love was narrow, while Liam saw the bigger picture.
He was domineering but hoped she would find new love after his death.
Did Liam not love her?
No, she felt that Liam loved her very much. He didn’t want Celeste to wallow in the pain of losing a loved one and lead a life of confusion. Celeste chuckled and asked softly. “What if I can’t control my feelings and fall more deeply in love with someone than I did when I was with you?”
Liam gripped the steering wheel, lips sealed, and said after a long while, “Then, we have to be buried together.”
Celeste was taken aback. Her heart fluttered, and after a while, she called him a fool.
The next day. Lucilla Preston brought in big news. Shawn had a huge fight with Helen and kicked her out of the Campbell family
When Shawn went to pick up Jacques Campbell from the police station, Helen seemed nervous, which raised his suspicions
He also called Angel Campbell to the hospital and had a paternity test done on the kids and the dead baby.
It turned out that only Angel was his daughter, and Jacques wasn’t his son.
This enraged Shawn, and he had a fight with Helen at the hospital
Helen was stubborn and refused to reveal who Jacques‘ father was. Shawn was so furious that he left Helen and her son at the hospital and washed his
hands of them
Shawn went to Lucilla’s house first thing in the morning and confided in her.
Lucilla said, “Shawn seems to be quite afraid of Helen. Even after fighting to this extent, he never thought about divorce.”
Celeste gave a cold laugh.
It’s not that he didn’t want a divorce, it’s just that Helen had dirt on him. Even after being cuckolded, he didn’t dare divorce her.
Even if they were to divorce, given Helen’s nature, she’d definitely demand a hefty compensation, and Shawn wasn’t about to give her a dime.
Celeste said, “No big deal. It would be more troublesome if he got a divorce.”
“So what’s next?”
“So, up next… the bun in your oven‘ becomes his biggest hope. Let him give you a title. Even if he can’t give you a title, you’ve gotta make sure he moves the money over to your side. Once there’s a dispute about cash, that’s when you know it’s time to reel him in.”
Was Helen here to be Shawn’s woman? No, she was obviously here for cash and status.
Now that the status was gone, the money was the most important thing to her
What she didn’t expect was that Helen would be so adamant about not revealing who Jacques‘ father was
Celeste naturally wouldn’t think that someone as profit–minded as Helen would be so smitten with someone. It’s more likely that she was keeping quiet because she knew she had her own situation locked down and was protecting Bart.
Bart was now the son–in–law of the Fletcher family. If he was rolling in dough, why should she worry about her son not having a backer?
While she was thinking about this, her phone rang.
Celeste glanced at it and saw that it was Mason Fletcher
She picked up the phone and answered
“Celeste, are you currently free?”
“Huh?” Celeste didn’t respond directly but carefully asked, “What’s up, Mr. Fletcher?”
I’ve gathered all the info on your grandfather’s old house. Can we meet and talk about it?”
Celeste was about to agree, but suddenly remembered that Liam might be upset, so she swallowed her words, ‘Can’t we talk about it over the phone?”
Mason chuckled, “Well, not really I just thought it would be clearer if you could see the documents with your own eyes.”
“No worries, just tell me over the phone, I’ve got a good memory”
