Chapter 317
But the olddy believed that this birthday banquet was an opportunity for Celeste to make a name for
herself in the circle. If she had any ambition to be the head of the Reed family, she would
definitely seize this opportunity.
The olddy guessed the oue, but not the process.
The reason Celeste made this choice was not that she had great ambitions, but that she already had
no chance of getting along with Skyler.
Celeste had stolen Skyler’s thunder at the jewelry exhibition, fired her people afterward, and then
quarreled with her on the phone. The two of them were only maintaining a superficial peace now.
Even if Celeste really let Skyler take charge of the birthday banquet, Skyler might not appreciate it.
Since she had already offended people, she might as well seize the opportunities she could, such as
the money from this birthday banquet.
Ten years ago, the cash gift had already reached nine figures. Surely, the amount of money ten years
later wouldn’t be less than that of ten years ago, right?
As Celeste came out of the kitchen with the fruit, she bumped into Wesley.
Wesley leaned against the wall, an unlit cigarette in his mouth, andzily squinted his eyes.
As soon as Celeste saw him, her attitude turned cold, and then she turned to walk towards the living
room.
Wesley put the cigarette behind his ear, rushed in front of her, took a strawberry from the te, and
said, “Celeste, long time no see. Why are you so cold to me?”
Celeste looked at him coldly and said, “Get out of my way.”
Wesley nced at the te in her hand, suddenly reached out to hold one side, his fingers brushing
against Celeste’s, and said with a smile, “I’ll help you with these fruits.”
Celeste avoided his touch and said solemnly, “Wesley, you really can’t change your trouble–making
nature, can you? You’re not satisfied with messing around outside, and now you’re trying to mess with
me. Have you gone crazy?”
Wesleyughed, “Celeste, you got it wrong. Weren’t you the one who started it? I spent the night of
your wedding with you. Aren’t you being a little
too ruthless to me?”
Celeste red at him darkly, “Wesley, if you have the guts, say that to Liam. Guess how he’ll treat
you?”
Wesley didn’t care, “Even if I told him, so what? I’m still the victim in this matter.”
Celeste suddenly said, “honey, you heard everything, didn’t you?”
Liam turned around abruptly, his back breaking out in a cold sweat.
But there was no one behind him.
He had been tricked by Celeste.
Wesley grinned, “Haven’t seen you in half a year, and you’ve be even more interesting!”This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Celeste didn’t bother with this yboy, coldly saying, “Get lost!”
“Why the rush? We rarely see each other, and I just wanted to catch up with you…”
Before he could finish, he heard Celeste exim, looking behind him, “honey?”
Wesley chuckled, “Celeste, you think I’d fall for the same trick again?”
“What trick?
Liam’s cold voice came from behind.
Wesley stiffened for a moment, then turned around with a natural smile, “Nothing, just having a casual
chat with Celeste.”
Liam’s gaze swept over him, then turned to Celeste, “Grandma asked you to help me apply the
medicine.”
Celeste said, “Let me take this fruit te to the living room first.”
Liam directly took it and threw it to Wesley, “You take it there while you’re at it.”
Wesley had no choice but to do as he was told.
Only when Celeste saw Wesley leave with the fruit te did she curl her lips, silently cursing what a
fool he was!
“What did he say to you just now?”
