Chapter 877
Before Celeste could get dressed, Liam yanked the blanket over her the moment he heard the door open.
As people entered the room, their attention immediately gravitated towards Liam, who stood by the bed. Scattered on the floor were a few articles of women’s clothing, and underneath the blanket on the bed, it was evident that someone was concealed.
Despite being fully clothed, Liam couldn’t hide the conspicuous marks on his neck and collarbone, leaving little to the imagination regarding the events that had transpired within the room. The morning brought a flurry of phone calls, informing others that Liam had spent the night with a woman at the hotel.
Due to Liam’s undisclosed divorce, the public was unaware of his marital status, and the media still considered him married. Tabloid journalists not only relished in celebrities‘ personal lives but also delighted in sensational gossip, particularly when it involved individuals from high society.
News of this nature held far greater potential for explosiveness than that concerning an unfamiliar actor. Hence, the moment these reporters entered, they wasted no time in capturing photographs and videos of Liam using their phones and cameras. Simultaneously, they bombarded him with inquiries, asking, “Mr. Reed, did you and the lady on the bed spend the night together in a hotel room?”
“What’s the relationship between you two, does she know you’re married?”
“Did your wife know you were in a hotel room with another woman?”
Unlike the young socialites who seemed to thrive on scandal, Liam preferred to maintain a low–key approach to his personal life
One only needed to look at his cousin, Wesley, to witness the constant rumors surrounding him and his alleged involvements with celebrities, wealthy heiresses, and supermodels.
The media always had a field day with stories of two beautiful women vying for Wesley’s attention, which generated significant public interest year after year.
However, Wesley had gained a reputation as a notorious playboy, and over time, people grew weary of his scandals. These tales became all too commonplace, failing to capture the attention of netizens and leaving them disinterested. It seemed that the public no longer felt compelled to pay attention to Wesley’s escapades.
On the other hand, Liam stood apart from his cousin. As the chairman of Smart Chips, he was a highly intelligent and accomplished young businessman, leading a successful professional life that garnered admiration and respect
A scandal involving him would be a bombshell piece of news.
That’s why, when they got the call, they all rushed here despite the risk of being warned by their industry, hoping to get an exclusive scoop and make a fortune.
Facing these sharp questions, Liam’s face turned cold.
He was trying to control his temper and said in a deep voice, “My wife knows it.”
As soon as they heard him start talking, they began to question him, “Are you and your wife in an open marriage? Does your wife allow you to date other women while you’re married?”
Liam glanced at the most aggressive female reporter, “Are you married?”
The female reporter was stunned and felt her face turning red.
A handsome man like Liam suddenly asking her if she’s married would naturally make a woman blush.
She shook her head and said softly, “Not yet.”
Liam said lightly. “So that’s why you’re asking such boring questions. Who told you that you can’t stay in a hotel with your lover after getting married? Doesn’t your marriage have any spark?”
Everyone was confused.
