Chapter 816


    The biggest bugbear in Celeste’s life was her inability to have children. It must’ve taken some guts for


    her to take the first step.


    Liam felt very emotional. He gently leaned towards Celeste, his voice brimming with emotion and


    tenderness. “Let’s make a wish under the turkishmp


    “Aren’t you scared of getting caught by the cops?” Celeste asked instinctively.


    “Nah, I’ll use Nics‘ name.”


    No wonder Nics always found a way to give Liam a hard time. Tumed out Liam wasn’t exactly a


    straight shooter himself.


    There was amp festival in the neighborhood near Danu River tonight. Lamps of all sorts were strung


    across the whole street. The old street was bustling with


    energy.


    Celeste spotted a traditional half–face mermaid mask at a stall. She held it up to her face, “Does it look


    good?”


    Liam had already gone to pay.


    There were many other beautiful masks on the shelf. Celeste had her eyes on a half–face metallic


    mask but someone else beat her to it. Before she could tum around, she heard a familiar voice, “Try it


    on if you like it.”


    ir was actually quite fond of the mask, but hearing Wesley’s voice just killed it for her. She put the


    mask back and was about to leave when she saw Liam approaching a masked girl, whispering. “Do


    you want to pick a few more?”


    Caught off guard, ir blurted, “Liam.”


    Liam paused for a moment and looked up to see ir and Wesley, then gave them a nod.


    It was hard to tell if Liam felt awkward, but Celeste sure as hell did on his behalf. Having your cousin


    cover for you on a date only to get busted on a date with someone else, talk about a facepalm moment.


    The smile on ir’s face faded as she set her eyes on Celeste.


    Wesley recognized Celeste at a nce, and he immediately figured out that Liam ditched ir for a


    date with Celeste. Leaving ir hanging to chase after his ex–wife, had Liam lost his marbles?

    But for Wesley, he’s ying the cards dealt for him well. He immediately greeted Liam with a grin,


    “Liam, Celeste, good evening. Are you two on a date for Valentine’s Day too?”


    He even tantly pointed out Celeste’s identity.


    Celeste’s lips tightened She felt ufortable at the mere sight of Wesley. Liam held her hand. Their


    fingers inteced tightly, the warmth from his palm seeped into her heart and gave her a boost of


    courage.


    “Weren’t you supposed to take Ms. Garcia to see the streetlights?”


    “Why look at streetlights when there aremps? You guys are celebrating, so are we” Wesley chuckled.


    “Wesley, stop kidding around ir frowned.


    Wesley shrugged, “Well, Liam asked me to keep youpany. He left you with me, so I gotta make


    sure you have a good time.”


    Mentioning this made ir’s face turn even more sour. As a woman, Celeste could empathize with


    ir’s current feelings.


    ir clearly had a thing for Liam. She wouldn’t have asked him out on Valentine’s Day. But Liam


    agreed to go out with ir only to have Wesley show up instead while he was on a date with someone


    else.


    And ir busted them.
