    “Pffft!” Celeste frowned and pped the back of his hand. “No shit, Sherlock! Does it hurt when I press


    on your wound?”


    Both her elbow wound and Liam’s head wound were from bumping into things on the cruise ship.


    Not only were her elbows injured, but her knees as well.


    Liam nced at her. “I thought you wouldn’t feel any pain.”


    As he spoke, he took a cotton swab, dipped it in medicine, and slowly applied it to her elbow.


    “This medicine was specially made by a doctor for my grandma. It’s very effective in treating bruises


    and injuries. One–time use and you’ll see


    results.”


    “Really? Then let’s take it with us when we leave,” Violette suggested. Getting injured during filming


    was amon urrence, and bruises were not only unsightly but also painful. If this medicine proved


    to be as effective as imed, it was only natural for them to want to keep it for themselves.


    Liam squinted. “My grandma only has this one bottle, and the doctor is traveling the world and won’t be


    back for at least a year. She treasures this medicine so much that when Kaylee hurt her foot from


    falling off a horse, she didn’t even let her use it. And you want to take it away?”


    In other words, fat chance.


    Celeste pouted, thinking: She dumped such a big mess on me, what’s wrong with asking for a bottle of


    medicine?


    “Honey, can we talk about something?”


    Liam tensed up immediately. Last time she started like this, she asked for their wedding room.


    He pursed his lips, put down Celeste’s leg, which was clenched in pain, and said coldly, “There’s


    nothing to talk about.”


    Celeste pouted. “I haven’t even said what I want to talk about yet!”


    Liam nced at her. “Would you ever discuss something good with me?”


    Celeste rolled her eyes. “Why did you say that? Of course, I’d discuss good things with you.”


    Liam remained unmoved, threw away the cotton swab, and began to clean up.


    Celeste followed him, nagging, “Look, Grandma’s 80th birthday celebration must be a big deal, right?


    Booking a venue, decorating the scene, stage performances, security measures, and so on, everything


    costs money. You know I don’t have much, and it’s definitely not enough. So can you advance me


    some money? Not much, just 5 million. After the birthday party, I’ll pay you back with 10% interest. You


    won’t make that much by keeping the money in the bank for a year. Invest in me, and you’ll see a


    return of 500 thousand in a month. Where else can you find such a good investment project?”


    She passionately promised him, like a loan shark in a documentary, constantly urging him to invest.


    However, Liam was not an easy target. He raised an eyebrow and said, “I put in the money, and you


    put in the effort, but you only give me 500 thousand? Doesn’t seem fair, does it?”


    Celeste was somewhat reluctant but, thinking about how her own money wasn’t enough to cover the


    birthday party, she had topromise. “How much do you want then?”


    “If I put in the money and you put in the effort, we should each get half the credit, so the profits should


    be at least half and half.”


    Celeste’s speechless, and she didn’t respond, turning to leave.


    Liam immediately grabbed her wrist. “We haven’t finished discussing. Where are you going?”


    Celeste red at him. “I’m going to borrow from someone else!”


    Men always try to profit from others, not even letting go of a little bit of money!


    Liam calmly said, “Do you have a friend who can lend you 5 million?”


    Celeste’s eyes widened.
