    At that time, Liam was only 17 years old, but his height had already reached adult level. Standing over


    6 feet tall, it took two nurses working together to help him turn over.


    One day, one of the nurses went downstairs to eat, leaving the other to ask Skyler for help.


    As they were turning Liam over, the catheter identally slipped out, spilling fluid onto the bed. Skyler


    immediately let go of her hand, and if it weren’t for the nurse holding Liam’s waist, his wound would


    have directly touched the bed.


    He could never forget the look on Skyler’s face at that moment.


    The disdain and disgust in her eyes, as if the person lying on the bed unable to move wasn’t her own


    son.


    Skyler had always been cold towards him, but that time, he truly felt how little she cared about him.


    If even his own mother looked down on him, how sincere could others be toward him?


    After his spinal surgery, Liam began to hate hospitals. He never wanted to lie in a hospital bed and feel


    helpless ever again, because it was only during those powerless moments that he could see people’s


    true colors.


    When he had a fever and dizzily copsed in the bathroom, he yelled at Celeste not only because of


    his pride but also because he didn’t want to see the same expression on Celeste’s face as he had seen


    on Skyler’s years ago.


    But Celeste’s reaction waspletely different from Skyler’s.


    She took care of him considerately, even when their rtionship wasn’t good, she still respected his


    pride.


    Liam knew about Skyler’s dissatisfaction with their marriage.


    Less than two months after getting married, he and Celeste moved out to live on their own, trying to


    avoid contact between them as much as possible.


    However, he didn’t expect Skyler to do such an extreme thing.


    Liam’s heart trembled as he thought about the kind of mood Celeste must have been in when she


    asked him for a divorce.


    Skyler, shaking all over, pointed at Liam’s head and cursed, “You unfilial son, I gave birth to you and


    raised you, what sin have Imitted? I did all this for you! If you had listened to me earlier and


    married a woman of equal status, how could you be constantly suppressed in thepany? What’s so


    good about Celeste? What help can she give you? You just like her face, right? Can’t you find any


    woman you want once you get Quantum? Besides, you can make her your mistress!


    But you had to go against me for her sake, stabbing your own family in the back. Giving birth to you


    has be my biggest regret!”


    Liam nced at her indifferently, “If my grandmother had thought the same way back then, you


    wouldn’t even have been able to marry into the Reed family. Celeste is my own choice, not someone


    who climbed into my bed through despicable means.”


    Skyler’s face turned red with anger.


    Liam’sst words undoubtedly mocked her.


    Her marriage into the Reed family had been somewhat disgraceful, as she had been pregnant before


    getting married, which was risky to some extent. She won the gamble, taking the Barlow family to new


    heights.
