Chapter 820


    Celeste was a bit taken aback.


    He was upset because of this? Wasn’t that a bit childish?


    Weren’t the presents she had received, past and present, all from him?


    But she was in a good mood today, so she reassured him, “The gifts you give are always practical.


    Whether they’re for a soak in the tub or for making a flower cake, they’re all good.”


    Liam didn’t feel reassured at all.


    Suddenly, Celeste had an idea. There are some desserts left from Trisha, let me get you some.”


    Trisha was really good at cooking. For a while, Liam would bring a bouquet of roses almost every day It


    felt like a waste to throw them out, and they weren’t cheap either, but she had nowhere to put them if


    she didn’t.


    So, Trisha took the rose petals off, washed them, and made a flower cake. She even bought a


    desant and individual packaging bags to preserve it. They would eat it as a snack while watching TV


    dramas


    Ever since Nics moved in across the street, a lot of the desserts at home had been taken by him.


    There wasn’t much left now


    Celeste handed a piece of cake to Liam, “Try it.”


    Liam took a bite


    The soft cream wrapped around the scent of roses, and the taste was much better than anything you


    could find on the market.


    “Tastes good, right?” Celeste’s eyes curved into crescents, “Trisha is really good at this, isn’t she?”


    “You’re not bad either.”


    “There’s no need to say something you don’t mean.”


    “I’m serious,” Liam emphasized.


    Celeste gave him a sideways nce, “You think I didn’t see you throwing away the lunch I made for


    you?”


    “When did – Liam’s words suddenly stopped. He seemed to remember something. So there was that


    one time.


    You saw me throw away the lunch, so that’s why you refused to cook?”


    The feeling of being looked down on, even after a long time, still made her feel ufortable.


    “I’m not that thick–skinned I can’t keep forcing myself on someone who doesn’t like me.”


    So that’s how it was. At first, when Celeste stopped cooking, he just thought she was bored.

    Just like when she saw someone ying the guitar on TV and thought it looked cool, and brought one


    home. But after only two months of practice, the guitar was tossed into the storage room Her interest in


    things neversted long. So when she gave up cooking, he just thought her interest had reached its


    peak. He never thought it was because of him.


    So her cooking was it because of him? This realization made Liam’s heart incredibly soft


    Celeste found it annoying to think about the past. When she looked up and saw Liam still smiling, she


    suddenly felt stifled.


    “Am I that funny?” she was not pleased.


    “No,” Liam stroked her hand, “You’re very cute.”


    Celeste’s heart beat faster, and she pulled her hand back.


    “Stop ying games!”


    “No,” Liam hugged her and made her sit on hisp, looking seriously into her eyes, “I only threw away


    the food you made for me once. It wasn’t because I didn’t like it. That day I had gone to the golf course


    with a client, and the car was parked outside all day in the hot sun. By the time I came back at night,


    the food in the lunch box had gone bad, so I threw it away.”
