Chapter 837


    Liam vented his frustration on his friend, “He’s going to the restroom so much, he might have kidney


    problems.”


    Just as Celeste was about to say something, her phone beeped. She looked down and saw that


    someone had transferred fifty thousand into her ount. The sender was Shawn, with a note: [Take


    care of yourself, let me know if you need anything]


    Celeste’s eyes widened


    Had Shawn gone mad?


    Since her marriage, Shawn had never voluntarily given her money. Thest time he spent money on


    her was when he was forced to at a jewelry show, and he reluctantly spent a million on a bracelet for


    her.


    “What’s up?” Seeing Celeste frowning, Liam asked


    Celeste came back to her senses and said, “Shawn transferred fifty thousand to me


    Liam was silent for a moment.


    “He called me earlier, wanted to adopt me.” Celeste felt nauseous thinking about Shawn’s pretentious


    words, “He wants to build a father daughter rtionship with me using money, how generous”


    Liam frowned and asked, “Did you agree?”


    “Of course not!” Celeste rolled her eyes. “I’m not a fool. He’s willing to spend money on me only


    because he thinks there’s still a chance for us to get back together and wants to maintain a good


    rtionship with Quantum Enterprises. He thinks that now that I’m an illegitimate daughter, to marry


    you, I need a decent status He graciously wants to adopt me, give me the Campbell family status. He


    thinks I would have a hard time refusing. He’s testing me now. Who would want such a terrible status?


    If I can’t get marned, then I won’t, who cares!”


    Liam said, “I think getting married is better, you have legal protection.”


    “I’m talking about serious stuff!” Celeste said.

    “I’m also talking about serious stuff, consider it.” Liam grinned.


    Celeste chose to ignore this topic, “Shawn, this stingy man, surprisingly transferred fifty thousand to


    me. I doubt he’s defrauded someone, otherwise, why would he be so generous?”


    Liam’s eyes flickered.


    Not long after, Nics arrived.


    As soon as he got in the car, he started teasing Liam, “Liam, you don’t want to drive anymore? Come,


    I’ll drive.“.


    Liam retorted with just one word – Scram


    “I’m living a boss’s life with a driver’s fate.” Nicsmented


    After saying that, he fastened his seatbelt and started the car.


    Liam was asked on the road, “Friday is Molly’s birthday party, are you going?”


    “I’m not going‘ Liam said.


    “Ms. Campbell, how about you?” Nics asked.


    “I don’t know Ms. Fletcher well Celeste said.


    Nics frowned, “If you both are not going, then what’s the point of me going? I’m not going either.”


    Liam originally nned to have a meal together, but Owen called and needed him at thepany, so


    the meal was canceled.


    After dropping Liam off at the office, Nics drove Celeste back to Grandview Heights


    “Bang-”


    Naomi mmed her cup on the floor, barking. “Are you trying to scorch me or what? It’s boiling!”


    Mr. Hale just walked in, only to see Naomi ripping into her assistant


    The assistant, looking as pale as a sheet and pitiful, was getting a real earful


    Mr. Hale frowned, “What’s up?”
