Chapter 811


    Chapter 811


    Celeste buckled up, pretending to y with her phone but actually eavesdropping.


    “Who’s this?” Liam asked, frowning.


    Celeste could already tell who it was


    But Liam seemed genuinely clueless.


    There was a pause from the other end of the line


    “Liam, it’s ir We’ve swapped numbers before. I texted you but you didn’t respond. So, I decided to


    call you directly I hope I didn’t bother you?”


    Finally, it clicked for Liam. As for why he didn’t reply, it was because he’d set her mesinges to do not


    disturb after buying her a bracelet


    So, he naturally didn’t see her messages.


    “What’s up?”


    “I want to explore around J City but I’m unfamiliar with the area. Can you show me around?” Afraid he’d


    refuse, she added. “You promised to show me around when we had dinnerst time, remember?”


    Celeste shot Liam a nce

    Liam, however, seemedpletely oblivious to ir’s intentions for calling on Valentine’s Day evening.


    “You won’t see much at night except for streetlights


    “But streetlights can be pretty too I heard the streetlights in J City are beautifully designed. I can bring


    my drone and take some photos And it’s Valentine’s Day, the outskirts might be bustling. I want to


    check it out.”


    Celeste thought to herself, knowing this was Liam’s area of expertise, he couldn’t possibly not lecture


    ir on safety, right?


    But he didn’t. At that moment, he was just an emotionless driver “Where are you? I’lle pick you


    up.”


    Upon hearing this, ir’s voice softened considerably She gave him her location, gently reminding


    him, “Liam, be careful on the road”


    Liam didn’t respond, hanging up and immediately calling Wesley Reed


    Wesley was hardly idle, partying with a group of friends


    Seeing Liam’s call, Wesley suddenly felt a pain in his back.


    He pushed the model off hisp and walked away from the crowd to answer the call.


    “What’s up?”


    “Where are you?”


    Wesley nced at the people frolicking in the pool, I’m at home”


    Liam didn’t care where he was “Busy tonight? If not, you can show Ms Garcia around. If you are, I’ll find


    someone else.”


    Wesley was taken aback. This golden opportunitynded on him?


    Tm free tonight Where’s Ms. Garcia?”


    Liam gave him the address “Ms. Garcia’s unfamiliar with the areas around J City You can show her


    around, let her see the streets and the streetlights.”


    After hanging up, Wesley was stunned. Was Liam going crazy, introducing ir to him like this?


    But right now, he didn’t care if Liam was crazy. When opportunity knocked, he had to seize it.


    Celeste hadn’t expected Liam to delegate this task to Wesley. It was only after he hung up that she


    asked, “Are you sure it’s safe letting Wesley take ir out?”


    “Don’t worry. Wesley won’t do anything inappropriate.”


    Wesley definitely wanted to make a good impression on ir, he wouldn’t dare to do anything out of


    line


    “Aren’t you worned they might end up together? Then team up to kick you out of Quantum?”


    Celeste might not be business savvy, but she knew that if Wesley teamed up with the Garcia family, it


    wouldn’t bode well for Liam. Yet Liam just handed Wesley the opportunity


    “If marriages were useful, my father would’ve been ousted by Clyde Reed long ago.” Liam sounded


    resigned.


    Valeria’s family was more powerful than that of Skyler Reed


    “Even if they don’t kick you out, it’s not going to be good for you if they get married, right?”


    Liam nodded.


    He admitted it would have some impact. After all, if Wesley and ir got married, Clyde would


    definitely have more confidence in terms of capital and connections “What will you do if they end up


    together?”


    TII try to win you over. I can’t be thest one to get married”


    “I’m talking about thepany!”


    Liam nced at her, smiling. “Unless I’m really at my wit’s end, I wouldn’t consider using marriage to


    secure my position. I just want to be with you”


    “I’m not worried” Celeste held her seat belt tightly, whispering.


    Liam looked at her tenderly, a smile on his lips.


    Liam drove out of the neighborhood.


    On the road, Celeste suddenly remembered something. “Last time when I wanted to use a drone to


    watch the light show, you told me about the risks about causing fires, getting detained, and


    discouraged me from going. Why didn’t you say the same to ir?


    “What’s it to me if she gets detained?”


    Even though Liam wasn’t saying sweet nothings, his words made her heart flutter.


    It was Valentine’s Day, and the cinema was packed. They had to spend nearly half an hour just to find a


    parking space.


    After they got off the car, Celeste put on a mask. While queuing for tickets, she asked Liam, “Do you


    know what movie we’re watching?”


    Liam thought for a moment, “Probably a romance.”


    Since it was a must–watch for couples, it must be a romance.


    Celeste had never watched a movie with Liam before. She would oftene by herself Liam’s


    company would distribute a lot of movie tickets every month, but Liam wasn’t into movies, so mostly


    she and Trisha used the tickets


    This was her first time watching a movie with Liam, and it was a fomance of all things, which was quite


    rare.


    However, when she got the movie tickets, Celeste fell silent.


    She couldn’t think of Liam as too perfect. What kind of romance was named Killer in July?


    Liam also realized he’d been tricked by Owen, looking quite unhappy


    He immediately called Owen, but Owen, who usually was always on call, didn’t answer this time.
