Chapter 946
Celeste replied in a soft voice, “I just slightly helped him, Ms. Colton. Are you overthinking this, Mr. Reed?”
Liam glanced at her and gave a non–committal grunt of agreement
What can you do with a wife who loves to show off? Just let her be
This infuriated Trisha Usually, she wouldn’t dare to openly confront Liam, but this time she was fearless and directly scolded him, “Liam, can’t you see this woman is flirting with you? I thought you were different from other men, but I was wrong! You’re all the same! You lose all principles when a pretty woman shows you a bit of attention. Are you trying to win Letti? In your dreams-!‘
Before Trisha could finish her sentence, Nicolas, who had just arrived, covered her mouth and pulled her aside. “You’ve had too much to drink and are talking nonsense You two carry on,” he said, glancing at Liam before adding, “Handle it yourself. I can’t control her mouth”
Then, he picked up the struggling Trisha and left
“Let go of me!” Trisha shouted as Nicolas, not too far away, let her go
Angrily, she said, “Why did you pull me away? I was about to confront this indecent pair!
Nicolas replied “She just helped him a bit. The situation isn’t as serious as you think. Liam isn’t the type to lose control. He was just being polite.”
“Why should we be polite to such a frivolous woman? They’re obviously smitten with each other! I’m calling Letti right now to warn her to stay away from this worthless mani”

Trisha’s mouth twitched. “You’re the freeloader! The bride is my classmate; she invited me. How could I come empty–handed? I’m not that impolite.”

Irritated, Trisha replied, “Who else? Did you bring me here?”
Smiling, Nicolas wrapped his arm around her shoulder. “I can take you home.”
Trisha slapped his hand away. “I don’t need your ride! You just insulted me; I haven’t settled the score with you yet!”
“You’ve already slapped me twice. Aren’t you satisfied?”
Trisha glared at Nicolas, I’m mad! You owe me an apology!”
Nicolas was sincere, “Why don’t you slap me again to cool down?”
With that, he leaned his face in
