Chapter 155 Rich Hot And Infertile Husband (Or Maybe Not)

• After Owen finished his report that day, he suddenly remembered something. “Oh, by the way, Mr. Francis called while you were in a meeting today. He said that this year’s Chamber of Commerce event will be held on a cruise ship. He had asked someone to send an invite. He wanted me to call him back regardless of whether you will attend. So, Mr. Reed, are you going?” “Nope.” Liam didn’t even lift his head. Owen nodded, “Alright, I’ll respond to Mr. Francis right away.” The nature of the Chamber of Commerce has changed. It’s form over substance now. A cruise ship? Liam paused and called out to Owen, who was about to leave. “Wait! Leave the invitation, please.” Owen was surprised.
• “Are you going?” Liam said indifferently, “Hasn’t she always wanted to go on a cruise? I’ll take her to experience it for herself.” Owen raised an eyebrow. Celeste had gone on a cruise when she went on vacation two years ago and had a blast for almost half a month. At that time, she kept sending Liam photos, dozens at a time. Liam never replied. They had been married for only six months at the time, and Owen hadn’t seen any of the “newlywed intimacy” one would expect. So, Owen subconsciously thought that Liam didn’t really care about his new wife. But one day, Liam suddenly seemed a bit off. Whenever his phone rang during a meeting, he would instantly check it. Owen initially thought Liam was waiting for a client’s message, but he only looked more troubled when that was the case. It wasn’t until the third day when Liam received a video of Celeste feeding dolphins during the meeting that Liam’s frown finally disappeared.
• Owen faintly realized that Liam’s abnormal behavior throughout the day might have been because Celeste hadn’t sent any photos back for two days. With Liam’s excellent memory, how could he forget that Celeste had been on a cruise? Owen pretended to know nothing and agreed before retreating. The cruise for the Chamber of Commerce event would begin in J City, traveling through two other cities before returning through another route, lasting for two days and one night. When Owen told Celeste, she didn’t seem very interested. “What’s the point of me going to this business event? Doesn’t your company have many beautiful secretaries? Can’t you just ask one of them to accompany Liam?” It wasb’t the right season for cruises, and it wouldn’t be fun. “That would be inappropriate. Single people might bring their secretaries or assistants, but everyone else brings their partners. Liam is not single; if he brought a secretary, people would gossip and spread weird rumors, which might cause misunderstandings.” Celeste thought to herself, “You’re really overthinking it.
