Chapter 73 Rich Hot And Infertile Husband (Or Maybe Not)
- Owen reluctantly handed the phone to Liam. Liam took the phone with an unhappy face, “This better be important!” “Your wife called me ” Nicolas said. “What?” Liam was surprised. Nicolas smiled, 1 said Celeste just called me.” Thinking of that woman and the $20,000 check, Liam’s nose hurt again. He replied irritably, “She called you, why are you telling me?” “Don’t you want to know why she called me?” Nicolas asked. “No” He was about to hang up right after. Nicolas hurriedly said, “Garfield wants to return the bracelet, and she asked me for help!” Liam paused, “She asked you?” “Yeah, she said her dad was threatening her, making her return the bracelet no matter what. She was crying her eyes out, and I’m just too nice, so I agreed when my heart softened Nicolas said Liam kept a straight face, Finish your story and then get lost Nicolas said disappointedly.
- “I said it so sincerely, why don’t you believe me?” It wasn’t that Liam didn’t believe Celeste would ask him for help, but he couldn’t believe she would cry and beg him to do it. That woman seemed really strong, so how could she possibly cry and complain about her family troubles in front of someone like Nicolas? Liam snorted, “If you had said she beat you up and threatened you to help her, maybe I would’ve believed it.” “Celeste looks so skinny and weak, could she really beat you up?” Nicolas asked. Liam’s nose started to hurt again. “Are you going to tell me or not? If not, I’m hanging up!” Liam said. Nicolas stopped beating around the bush and told Liam everything Celeste had asked him to do. “Celeste really is ruthless.
- I heard Shawn is bidding on that Riverside Shire project and has put up most of his fortune. He’s counting on Garfield to help him out. If he can’t pull it off, given Garfield’s petty nature, he probably won’t deal with him again, and the bidding project will be screwed. Celeste isn’t their only daughter, how could she be so heartless towards her own dad?” Nicolas said. Liam didn’t say anything. Not long after Caitlyn’s car accident, Shawn had cut off her medication and planned to give up treating her. This was something Celeste could never forget, and putting pressure on him was actually going easy on him. “Huh? Why are you silent?” Nicolas asked. Liam frowned, “If you’re so concerned, why don’t you go ask her yourself?” Nicolas was at a loss for words. “What’s with you towards Celeste today? It’s just a pair of socks, man. Is it really worth making such a big deal out of?” Nicolas said.
