Chapter 910
Liam was stunned, his entire being filled with joy.
Only one thought filled his mind: she chose me.
Steven pursed his lips and although he didn’t show his feelings, Celeste could sense his displeasure
Celeste sighed.
Steven’s inexplicable kindness, honestly, scared her a bit.
Mason was also good to her, but she would reciprocate or pay him back, which he wouldn’t refuse.
The difference was that Mason was like a good friend who could help her out, and Steven was giving her gifts and resources for free, asking for nothing in return, who would dare to accept that lightly?
After all, free things often come at the highest price.
She feared that she couldn’t pay for what she wanted.
Celeste bowed to Steven, “Sorry, Mr. Garcia.”
Mr. Garcia…
Their relationship, which had just become a little closer had gone back to the beginning, calling him Mr. Garcia? He didn’t want to be her Mr
Garcia!
Steven held back his displeasure and put on a smile, “It’s okay, there’s nothing to apologize for You do what you have to do, we can arrange
another time
Celeste breathed a sigh of relief and got into Liam’s car.
Steven watched them leave quietly, until their Benz was out of his sight, he said resentfully, “Why doesn’t she learn from past lessons!?”
Upon hearing this, Nathan said softly, “Well, you can’t really say that. The best partner is always the original one. I think Liam and Celeste actually match quite well.”
Steven stopped in his tracks and said with a disdainful face, “When did you go blind? Where do they match? Is Liam that idiot worthy of Celeste?”
Nathan held back, but finally couldn’t help saying, “Mr. Steven, I’ve been holding this back for a long time. There are so many good girls out there. why do you have to chase after Liam’s ex–wife? You get rejected and then slander him. That’s not like you.”
Steven was speechless.
Looking at his dense assistant, his anger surged.
He asked quietly, “Do you know why Owen, who isn’t as educated as you, makes more money than you?”
Nathan felt his heart tighten. Owen was the benchmark in their industry, although his salary was confidential, everyone had heard the rumors.
He had been with Liam for three years and had bought a 100 square meter flat in the city centre. Who could compare with that?
Not to mention all cash, even if it was just a down payment, ordinary people would be ecstatic and brag about it everywhere.
Nathan said, “Maybe because he’s good at brown–nosing?”
Steven chuckled contemptuously
Nathan was speechless
As they left the movie city, Celeste felt a little more relaxed.
Owen glanced at the fine sweat on Celeste’s face, and while driving, he said gently, “Madam, do you feel hot? Would you like me to lower the air conditioning a bit more?”
Celeste shook her head, “This is fine.”
Owen shot a glance at Celeste’s exposed knees under her skirt and indicated to Liam, “Feeling chilly, mate?”
Getting Owen’s drift, Liam quickly grabbed a blanket from nearby and draped it over Celeste’s knees, “Don’t catch a chill.”
A soft “mm–hmm” escaped from Celeste, a small smile playing at the corners of her mouth.
“Did you see Steve as soon as you got here? What time did you arrive?”
Liam nodded, the mention of “Steve” irked him. His mood soured even more when he thought about Celeste’s past crush on Steven.
But then he considered how Celeste had turned down the guy she fancied to be with him and his mood lifted a little.
Still, he couldn’t help but show a hint of jealousy, “Your crush is always trying to win you over, don’t you feel anything?”
