    She lowered her head and hoarsely apologized, “I’m sorry, ma’am. It won’t happen again.”


    Celeste skipped dinner and went to bed early.


    She didn’t know when Liam returned, but when she woke up the next day, she was the only one in the


    bedroom, and it seemed like Liam hadn’te back


    at all


    Upon asking Martha, she was told Liam had returned around 11 PM and likely spent the night in the


    study. He had left early the next morning.


    Celeste had be quite indifferent to Liam and even wished he wouldn’te back. She enjoyed


    living alone in the spacious vi and even considered getting a pet.


    However, she knew that Liam was heartless and disliked animals. He might throw her pet away while


    she was gone, leading to a huge fight between

    them.


    Just after washing her face, her phone rang.


    Seeing that it was Shawn, Celeste decided not to answer it and left her phone upstairs as she went


    downstairs to eat.


    Trending topics caught her eye as she woke up in the morning.


    [A mysterious woman splurged 18 million on a rare, top-quality jade bracelet; the seller rewarded her


    with an Hermès designer bag] [The mysterious woman was suspected to be Garfield Reilly’s daughter]


    [What does a 18-million jade look like?]


    [I can’t understand the world of the rich]


    She wondered how much Nics paid to get trending topics like that. In any case, there were nearly


    ten hot topics on the matter.


    What surprised her was that stingy Nics was willing to give an Hermès bag. Though it didn’tst


    long, as she found out online that the gifted bag was worth just around 3,000 to 4,000, nothing


    compared to the 30-plus million bracelet.


    He was always been stingy, but he was really good at creating a vibe. Just in one night, the news of Mr.


    Reilly spending over 30 million on jade had spread everywhere.


    Shawn must have seen the news since he called first thing in the morning.


    Celeste went for a run, yed with the neighbor’s dog, and only during breakfast did she take her


    phone to call Shawn back.


    By this time, Shawn was already freaking out.


    At 5 AM, Garfield had called and chewed him out, using him of ying tricks and threatening him


    that there would be hell to pay.


    Only then did Shawn realize how serious this was. He didn’t even have time to freshen up, and


    hurriedly called Celeste to ask if she had let Liam talk to Nics about it.
