Chapter 530
Celeste suddenly felt a heaviness in her heart.
47
When she saw his grandma at the funeral, she was still strong and healthy. How could she suddenly become weak?
She clenched her face and her fingers unconsciously tightened.
Her mother had just passed away, so she was very sensitive to the health of those around her.
Only those who have experienced such things know how unpredictable life is.
Liam’s face couldn’t help but darken a bit as well, and he said softly. “I got it, I’ll be right there.”
After hanging up the phone, Liam unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car
He glanced at Celeste and Mason, then turned to Owen and said. “You wait here for the insurance guy to handle this, I’ll take a cab and head
there”
With that, he walked toward the opposite side, his hurried steps making Celeste feel uneasy. She instinctively called out to him, “Liam!”
Liam stopped and looked back at her.
Celeste whispered, “What happened to Grandma?”
Liam stared into her eyes and said heavily. “I’m not sure. If you want to know, you can come with me to check it out.”
She and Liam were already divorced. Was it appropriate for her to go with him now?
Liam waited a few seconds, and seeing her not moving, his eyes flashed a hint of disappointment. I’ll be taken off then,” he said.
Celeste choked on her words.
She could be indifferent to any problems the Reed family had, but she couldn’t ignore something happening to grandma.
The kindest person in the Reed family to her was Sienna. She couldn’t turn a blind eye and pretend not to hear.
So, the moment Liam turned around, she called out to him, “Wait for me.”
Then she turned to Mason and said, “Mr. Fletcher, I’ll treat you to a meal another day. I need to go check on grandma first.”
Mason’s expression softened a bit, and he whispered, “Go ahead, contact me if there’s anything”
Celeste breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him before catching up with Liam.
Watching the two of them leave, Mason’s eyes became deep and it took a long time for him to look away.
Owen awkwardly laughed and said, “Mr. Fletcher, I’m really sorry for wasting so much of your time.”
Mason smiled, “It’s fine, it’s not like we’re short on time.”
Owen’s smile faded slightly, as if he heard another meaning in those words.
Seemed like he was sneering Liam.
During the wait, Liam didn’t say a word.
Celeste was worried about Sienna’s condition, so she naturally didn’t feel like talking.
Before long, a taxi pulled up
The driver poked his head out and asked where they were going.
Liam gave the address, and the driver said he could take them there, but there was already a passenger in the who needed to be dropped off at her university first. He asked if they would mind.
The university and his old house were on the way.
ay, so Liam agreed.
Once in the car, they realized there was a young girl who looked like a student in her twenties sitting in the front seat.
The temperature wasn’t low today, and with it being close to noon, the sun was scorching. The car was filled with the smell of leather and engine oil in the heat, which was very unpleasant.
As soon as Celeste smelled it, she felt nauseous. She closed her eyes and leaned back against the seat, trying to rest and feel a little better.
After she closed her eyes, Liam secretly glanced at her.
There were some faint dark circles under Celeste’s eyes. She must have been very tired lately, with no time to rest after the funeral.
