Chapter 260 Rich Hot And Infertile Husband (Or Maybe Not)
- After all, he wouldn’t remember any of it the next day. Liam frowned and suddenly took out his phone. Celeste thought he was calling Owen, so she didn’t pay attention. Soon they reached the ground floor and waited for a while, but Owen didn’t show up. Celeste turned to Liam, “Didn’t you call Owen?” Liam shook his head. Celeste took a deep breath and dialed Owen’s number. After the phone rang for a while, Owen finally answered. “Owen, Mr. Reed is drunk. We’re at Cuisine Cascade, can you come pick him up?” “I’m tied up with something urgent and can’t leave. Could you please help send Mr. Reed home?” Owen’s voice sounded a bit breathless, as if he was really busy “Owen, we’re divorced. I don’t have an obligation to help him.” Owen hesitated for a moment, “Ms. Campbell, please help Mr. Reed get a taxi and ask the driver to take him back to Pinecrest Manor. I really can’t leave.” After Owen hung up, Celeste looked at Liam, who was still holding her hand tightly, and frowned as she called a taxi.
- As the car arrived, Celeste immediately opened the door, trying to stuff Liam in, but he refused to get in. Celeste struggled for a while but still couldn’t get Liam into the car. The driver was getting a bit impatient, “Are you guys getting in or what?” Celeste glared at the annoying person in front of her and gritted her teeth, “Fine, let’s go!” Then the taxi took the two of them to Pinecrest Manor, After getting out of the taxi, Celeste paid the fare and told the driver to wait for a bit while she dropped off the person. It seemed like the nanny wasn’t home, and the lights were off. Celeste entered the password to unlock the door and casually told Liam, “Take off your shoes.* After that, she pressed the light switch. The room had just lit up when Celeste immediately turned off the lights again. What the heck was that?! She thought she must be seeing things, so she waited for three seconds before turning the light on again, Then, she was left dumbfounded by the dazzling piles of cash all over the room. The floor was covered in stacks of bills, at least a dozen centimeters thick, stretching from the doorway all the way into the living room.
- There was even a 3D pyramid made of gold bars on the coffee table. She felt like she had stepped into a millionaire’s home, and if the police were to show up at that moment, she’d be scared shitless. Liam hugged her waist from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder, and whispered, “Do you like It? All of this is yours.” Celeste had no words. It’s not that she didn’t have integrity, but really, who could keep their cool and sanity in the face of piles of cash and gold bars? But she was just an ordinary person. “Who’s more generous, me or Steven?” After the initial shock, Celeste gradually regained her senses. She recalled Liam’s text in the elevator just now. Was that to prepare for this surprise? How did he manage to get so much money in the middle of the night? Did he own a bank or something? Celeste suddenly felt a headache coming on. She thought Liam was a bit off, and things got even more serious when he was drunk. Just because she complained about his stinginess, he brought back a whole bunch of money? Was he trying to show off his wealth? Seeing that she didn’t answer, Liam got a little unhappy and hugged her even tighter.
