Chapter 713
He once told Skyler what he liked, but she never really cared.
Liam stared at the grilled lobster in his bowl for a while, then picked up the bowl and dumped the lobster into the trash can next to him.
Skyler didn’t see it, but Janis did
Janis glanced at Liam, her expression somewhat thoughtful.
As soon as Mason opened the door, Celeste began to act drunk, swaying as if she could hardly stand.
As she entered the room, she even stumbled if Mason hadn’t caught her in time, she would have almost fallen.
Javier was also startled by her act and asked, “What happened?
Mason, half–supporting her, whispered, “She’s drunk”
Celeste pushed him away, swaying, saying “You’re the drunk one I can hold my liquor!”
Then she went to pat Javier’s shoulder, her gaze blurry as she said, “Javier, we have to get wasted tonight”
Mason quickly pulled her back and whispered. “She’s drunk and can’t recognize people.”
Celeste continued to play crazy, struggling to say, “You’re the drunk one. Javier is my brother!”
Javier was old enough to be Celeste’s father!
Mason held her shoulder and pulled her back, saying. I’ll take her back first and then come back.”
Javier said, “You’ve also been drinking. Let me call my assistant ”
Celeste continued to pretend to be drunk. “I’m not going back! I want to drink with Javier!”
Javier wanted to throw her out of the window. She was too wild when drunk!
He picked up his phone to call his assistant.
Celeste secretly gave Mason a thumbs up
Before Javier’s call went through, the door to the private room was pushed open.
Kaylee scanned the room, spotted Mason’s figure immediately, and called out loudly. “Mason!”
They were all facing away from the door, so Celeste didn’t see anyone but recognized Kaylee’s voice
She was surprised. What was Kaylee doing here?
At this moment, Celeste was pretending to be drunk, half–leaning on Mason for support. She knew about Kaylee’s possessiveness toward Mason. If Kaylee saw them, there would definitely be a scene.
If it were any other time, she wouldn’t be afraid of Kaylee making a fuss, but now she was pretending to be drunk and couldn’t let anyone see through her act. She had to
keep it up
After all, it would be too embarrassing if Javier found out that she was pretending to be drunk to escape.
The people in the room were all from the same circle, so they didn’t know someone like Kaylee, a high–society heiress.
When they heard her shout Mason’s name, they figured she was a friend of his, so they didn’t pay much mind to it
“Mason, I thought you were pulling an all–nighter at the law firm.”
Kaylee said, strutting up to him, only to see the person he was holding in his arms.
Her face changed instantly, her voice rising in pitch. “Mason, why are you with her?”
Mason furrowed his brows, seeming less than pleased to see her, and responded coldly. “What are you doing here?”
At this point, Kaylee’s eyes were fixed on Mason’s hand supporting Celeste, her gaze filled with jealousy and rage. “Why are you with this skank?”
Mason’s face darkened, and he said sternly. “Watch your mouth!”
