    Chapter 199


    Jarvis waspletely choked. He had heard that Liam was indifferent to Celeste and had been coldly


    watching from a distance during the earlier part of the incident. When he finally stepped in, he didn’t


    say much, but who would have thought that once he opened his mouth, he was to protect Celeste so?


    Shawn’s gaze subtly swept over Celeste and Liam, and suddenly he came up with a n. His attitude


    suddenly changed, and his tone became kind and


    amiable.


    “Mr. Francis, you misunderstood. Both of them are my daughters, and I wouldn’t favor one over the


    other. When Celeste got married, I was tight on money, so her dowry might seem inadequate. The car


    Angel got was in fact for me. She needs transportation to get to work, so I let her use my old car once I


    got the new one.”


    Nics raised his eyebrows in response, “Oh! In that case, since Mr. Campbell’s not so tight on money


    now, why not give your daughter an additional dowry gift to make up for the past? Or else wouldn’t it be


    embarrassing?”


    Since Shawn wanted to establish a loving father image at any cost, shouldn’t there be some practical


    actions to show it?


    Shawn was silent for a moment, feeling annoyed and angry while pretending to be calm. “Of course. I


    will prepare something when we’re back home” Liam suddenly nced at the bracelet Celeste had just


    been looking at, and whispered, “This bracelet isn’t bad.”


    Nics immediately understood, “Mr. Campbell, don’t wait until you go home. This bracelet is quite


    good. Use it topensate for your daughter’s dowry. With so many witnesses here, it’s quite decent.”


    Shawn despaired.


    If he went home to prepare the dowry, no one would know what he actually came up with. However, if


    he prepared it here, he would have to fork over real money


    He’s put on the spot now. Knowing it was a trap, he had to ept it.


    “I heard from Mr. Campbell that you wanted to give it to your younger daughter just a few moments


    ago. Now that it’s going to your elder daughter, suddenly you’re hesitant?”


    Nics sure knew how to annoy people. Shawn took a deep breath and forced a smile, “How could I


    be?”


    After that, he said to the sales staff, “Please help me wrap up this bracelet.”


    Then, he looked at Celeste with an affectionate gaze, “As long as you’re happy.”


    Celeste sighed inwardly. After this incident, Shawn would probably hate her to death. But unbelievably,


    he could still y this loving father-daughter act with her here.


    Lowering her eyes, she obediently epted his gesture, “Thank you, dad.”


    After that, she nced at Angel and saw her burning with jealous hatred.


    Celeste smiled and gently said, “Angel must be upset that I just took her favorite thing.


    Angel had no idea that Celeste could take advantage of her at this moment. Everyone’s gaze was now


    turned to her again.


    Angel’s previous hateful expression still lingered, which people saw


    She nervously lowered her head and whispered, “Sis, don’t say that. You gave me such precious


    jewelry and treated me like a real sister. This bracelet is nothing I’m happy as long as you like it.”

    Celeste smiled slightly. “That’s good. We can’t ruin our sisterly bond over a bracelet.”


    Angel wanted to p Celeste, but she could only swallow her anger. I’m d you don’t me me, sis”


    Jarvis couldn’t stand it any longer and slipped away at some point.


    Celeste felt a bit disappointed. She had wanted him to see how her goddess was exposed, but he left


    early


    Finally, the drama was over, and Celeste got a free bracelet, which put her in a great mood. Her gaze


    at Liam became much kinder.


    Smiling, she said to Liam, “There are some really nice cufflinks here. Take a look around and pick a


    pair. I’ll get them for you.”
