Celeste nodded in agreement, attempting to stand up, only to have her legs give way, causing her to
stumble. Liam was taken aback and swiftly supported her, whispering, “What’s the matter?”
Feeling a bit flustered, it took Celeste a moment before she finally managed to say, “Do I walk in an
ugly and embarrassing way?”
Liam’s mind raced, reminded of the intimate encounter they had shared the previous night, and he too
felt embarrassed. He replied, “If you cover your face, no one will recognize you.”
Celeste fell silent, already aware that the answer was a resounding yes.
With no cold water avable in the bathroom, Liam arranged for a room next door to be opened. After
both of them freshened up, they found Owen’s arranged car waiting for them.
As the car started moving, Celeste began to contemte their next course of action. The unexpected
turn of events between them had caught her off guard, and she couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed.
In her ns, she wanted to discuss their feelings only after her career was stable.
Liam’s career was skyrocketing, and even if she couldn’t reach his status in the industry, she didn’t
want the gap between them to be toorge
Their first marriage failed not only because of suspicions but also because of their economic disparity.
The vast discrepancy between them always made her uneasy, questioning her own abilities and
confidence to stand by his side. However, life often throws unexpected curveballs. They had now found
themselves in bed together,pletely unprepared, and had even taken things to the next level.
Should she inform Liam that she was drugged, causing her to sleep with him? Should she reassure him
not to worry?
She scolded herself for even considering such thoughts. This was a terrible situation to be in!
Regret flooded her as she wondered why she didn’t resistst night. If she had known it would lead to
this, she would have allowed Liam to take her to the hospital instead. The embarrassment would have
been preferable to her current predicament.
“Last night… that was an ident,” Before Celeste could figure out what to say, Liam spoke first.
“Don’t overthink it. Just consider me as an antidote, and don’t put too much pressure on yourself,” Liam
looked at her gently, “I know you were druggedst night, that’s why you did that with me. If it were
someone else, you would do the same. It doesn’t mean anything special. But I’m still d it was me.

I won’t make any demands of you because ofst night. Whatever you want to do, I’ll respect you.”
Celeste turned silent
What should she do? She felt even worse now.
She was the one who had slept with him, and now he was making excuses for her.
Celeste ruffled her hair, and after a while, she blushed and said, “It wouldn’t be the same with anyone
else. I wouldn’t do that with anyone else.”
Liam paused, a hint of surprise shing in his eyes. He carefully asked, “Letti, did you do it because it
was me?”
Covering her face in embarrassment, Celeste didn’t want to answer, “Can you stop asking so many
details? My mind is a mess right now.”
Liam looked at her tenderly and said softly, “Alright, as long as you don’t avoid me, I’m afraid you’ll
think I’m using you and then despise and alienate me.”
Liam talking to her in this intive tone made her ufortable.
She said quietly, “I haven’t lost my memory.”
Liam had been turned down a bunch of times already, even though this time it was her who insisted on
it.
Liam gently tousled her hair and said softly, “I’ve told you before, you can use me however you want,
emotionally or physically, I’m game. So don’t feel burdened, I won’t use this to pressure you into
epting my advances.”
Celeste turned her head, her ears red, and after what felt like forever, she finally said, “How about… we
give it a shot and try dating for six months?”
