Liam was taken aback, doubting what he just heard.

He held his breath and asked, “What did you just say?”
Celeste was straightforward and couldn’t deny her feelings for Liam.
Witnessing Liam’s sincere efforts to repair their rtionship, she realized she couldn’t leave him
guessing. No matter how intense her emotions were, they couldn’t be treated casually.
Considering how far they hade, she decided to take another step forward.
Turning her head towards him, she proposed, “You know, trial marriages are a thing now. So, let’s give
dating a try. I’ll give you a trial period as my boyfriend. If you impress me, we can make it official. If
not…
Liam interrupted her swiftly, saying, “No need for that option. I promise Ill be the best”
Celeste couldn’t help butugh. “Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. I haven’t finishedying
out my terms yet.”
Liam grasped her hand, his expression serious, and urged her to continue, “Please, go on.”
“I only have one condition. During the trial period, we don’t spill the beans about us. In public, we keep
our distance. Got it?”
Upon hearing this, Liam frowned. “Is dating me that embarrassing?”
Celeste gave his leg a swift kick, “Isn’t remarrying you embarrassing?”
Though a bit upset, Liam swallowed his discontent hearing the term ‘remamage“.
He asked, “What about after I be an official boyfriend?”
Celeste nced at him, “Don’t get ahead of yourself. Let’s see how the trial period goes first.”
Liam thought for a moment, “During the trial period, can we do couple y stuff?”
Celeste nodded her head.
Liam leaned in, lowering his voice, “Like what we didst night?”
Celeste shot him a nce. “What percent of a full–time employee’s sry does an intern at your
company make?”
Liam answered, “The same.”

“Interns and full–time employees earn the same?”
Without hesitation, Liam said, “Yeah, if an intern’s skills are on par with a full-time employee’s, they
naturally get the same sry.”
Celeste gritted her teeth. He’s already testing the waters and he’s not even an official boyfriend yet?
She red at him, coldly replying. “Ah, in that case, in mypany, interns get 60% of a full–time
employee’s sry. So, you’re only allowed to hold hands.”
Liam,
“That’s againstborws, right?”
The corners of Celeste’s mouth curled up. “You can always quit. We’re not short on applicants.”
Liam was speechless.
He instantly sped Celeste’s hand, his voice barely audible as he whispered, “I never said I wasn’t
interested.”
A smile spread across Celeste’s face, unexpectedly lightening her mood.
Meanwhile, the hotel’s maintenance crew arrived at room 1307 in response to reports that the cold
water wasn’t functioning.
The repairman diligently tested the faucet, the shower, and the bathtub, but no water flowed out
It didn’t make sense. How could all of them stop working simultaneously? Could there be an issue with
the main pipe?
However, no other guests hadined about cold water problems in their rooms.
Scratching his head in confusion, the repairman essed the maintenance panel, located the valve,
and gave it a twist. Suddenly, all the cold water in the bathroom began to flow again.
Who in their right mind would shut off the main cold water valve!
Meanwhile at the Barlow’s…
Sincest night, Skyler had been unable to sleep. She wanted to go to the scene multiple times but
was afraid of being caught by Liam if things
went south.
Skyler immediately got excited, thinking her n had worked, and started contacting the media.
Now all she had to do was wait for the news to break and confirm Liam’s rtionship with ir.
But after waiting for a long time, there was no news.
Skyler started to get anxious and began pacing the living room.
