Chapter 936
Isn’t this dude supposed to be on a plane?
Did he parachute down or something?
Did he see my messages? Does he know Selena is me?
Before Celeste could think, Nicolas asked, “Why did you come alone? Where’s your other half?”
Liam hesitated before correcting. “I’m single”
Probably afraid of being set up with a girlfriend like Mason, he added, “I’m trying to date!
So, he’s actually living up to his promise to keep their relationship under wraps
But it doesn’t seem to make much difference
Sure enough, everyone at the table had an “I knew it look on their faces:
Nicolas wanted to mock him, but then he remembered that when it didn’t work out before, Liam always said they just had a lovers‘ spat, proving that he and Celeste hadn’t broken up
Today, he actually admitted he was single. There was only one explanation – he had won Celeste over
Senously!
Why can’t he suffer a little?
Nicolas was dissatisfied. Especially when he saw that Mason also had a partner, he felt even worse.
He glanced at Trisha, who was whispering to Jace, sometimes widening her eyes and sometimes laughing softly, he felt a pang of jealousy.
He turned to Celeste and said, “Ms. Colton, are there many female teachers at your school? If suitable, could you introduce me to one?”
Trisha paused and looked at him, “Don’t you have a girlfriend?”
“Who’s got a girlfriend? Nicolas shot her a look, “I’m single.”
“But you
Trisha stopped mid–sentence, realizing this was a public setting. Some words are better left unsaid.
She glared at him and told Celeste, ‘Don’t listen to his gibberish, His ex–girlfriends could fill a train. Be careful if you introduce a girlfriend to him, she might get dumped, and you guys might not even be friends anymore”
“Ms Colton?”
Liam looked at Celeste curiously When he saw her face, he was taken aback and then frowned.
He looked a bit strange, glanced at Mason, and then at Celeste.
Just as Celeste thought he recognized her, he asked, “What’s your name?”
She suddenly felt that it was more annoying that Liam didn’t recognize her than not seeing her message.
She stood up, reached out her hand, “Hello, you can call me Ms. Colton.”
She cleverly avoided the name Selena, she wanted to see how long it would take for this idiot Liam to recognize her
Liam was slightly stunned, feeling something familiar about her voice and breathing rhythm.
Their hands were already shaking by the time he snapped back to reality
Celeste raised an eyebrow. “I’ve heard so much about Mr. Reed, you’re indeed a gentleman with outstanding temperament.”
Her words were normal, but her hand quietly scratched his palm.
Liam immediately pushed her away as if he had been electrocuted, his face instantly turned very ugly.
Seeing his insulted look, Celeste immediately felt a sense of mischief. She pretended to rub her fingers and said softly, “Mr. Reed, you’re so strong.”
Sure enough, Liam’s face turned uglier and seemed a bit angry. But maybe because she was a woman, and she was a friend Mason brought, he just clenched his lips, gave her a cold look without saying anything, and then sat down
