Chapter 150
In fact, no one had been picking up Celeste’s phone
In the blink of an eye, over an hour had passed, and Shawn tried to find someone to delete the post.
But as soon as one was deleted, a new one immediately reced it. The trend was like a premeditated
explosion, bing harder and harder to contain
Thinking about the project that might be in trouble, Shawn anxiously paced back and forth in the room.
“How’s it going? Still no answer?” Helen ced the heated coffee on the table.
Shawn frowned and shook his head, “No one’s picking up.”
Helen nced at the time, “She should be awake by now, right? Is she ignoring your calls on purpose?”
“There’s no reason for her not to answer my calls” Shawn said.
“Maybe she’s too quilty to pick up, Helen snorted, “You called her yesterday, asking her to help talk to
Liam and Nics. And bam! Today, the news came out. Isn’t it too coincidental? A store giving back to
customers, not on the day of purchase, but after two or three days? With such a big fuss, is that
normal?”
Shawn frowned, actually feeling a bit strange about it, but also thinking that Celeste had no reason to
do so. He said, “You’re misunderstanding. Letti is now the only heir of the Campbell family, would the
Campbell family being in trouble bring her any benefits?”
Helen didn’t buy it. “Don’t forget whose daughter Celeste is. She’s as ruthless as Caitlyn. Remember
how she confronted you when she saw us in the parking lotst time? If she knew what happened back
then, she wouldn’tpromise for her own gain! As for being an heir, she’s now the Reed family’s
eldest daughter-inw If Liam bes the heir of Quantum, she’ll be thedy of the Reed family. Do
you really think she’d care about the Campbell family’s meager profits?”

Shawn’s face turned a bit dark, as he also considered this possibility
Celeste had never been close to him since she was young, and their rtionship had be very
tense after Caitlyn’s incident, only improving after Celeste’s marriage.
In the past two years, he felt that Celeste was gradually getting out of his control. She was bing
more and more perfunctory in doing the tasks he assigned, even suspecting that she might have
learned something.
If this were true, would her bing thedy of the Reed family really be a good thing for him?
Just as he was thinking about it, his phone suddenly rang. It was Celeste.
Shawn gestured for Helen to be quiet and answered the call.
“Dad, I just woke up and saw your call.” Celeste’s voice was a little hoarse, sounding like she had just
woken up, “I wanted to talk to you too. Mr. Francis agreed to the request you asked me about
yesterday.”
This sentence dispelled all Shawn’s doubts.
“You mean Nics agreed? Shawn asked.
“Yeah, Liam told mest night. He spent the whole night drinking with Mr. Francis and didn’t get home
until early morning. I wanted to tell you, but it was toote, and I didn’t want to disturb your rest, so I
nned to tell you this morning. I never expected you to call first. Celeste said. “Mr. Francis said, Mr.
Reilly cane with the item and shopping receipt, and if the manager verifies the item is fine, they
can refund the money.”
