My Rich Hot and Infertile or Maybe Not Husband

Chapter 243

Celeste glanced at Liam. “Nothing,” she said as she handed the files over to him. “Here’s the stuff, I gotta go now”

She was cold and didn’t want to talk to him any longer. It was quite different from how she took care of him attentively the night before.

Owen came over and whispered. “Mr Reed, there’s a meeting coming up soon”

Liam pursed his lips, raised his hand, not to take the file, but to grab her wrist. “Go wait for me in the office”

Celeste frowned, 7 won’t. I got something to do”

“What’s that?” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Celeste hesitated. T’m going to the hospital to see my mom.”

Liam glanced at her Tll take you there later”

Celeste was pissed off when she thought about this jerk using her as a scapegoat.

“Mr. Reed, you should be busy running the show I won’t bother you”

How could Liam not hear the sarcasm in her voice? He frowned, “Go there by yourself or I’ll carry you. Pick one.”

Celeste twitched her mouth, thinking he had gone crazy after the fever.

She stared at his expression and found he was not kidding at all.

If you don’t choose. I’ll assume you want me to carry you.

Liam was about to do so when Celeste saw many employees downstairs looking over here. She didn’t want to embarrass herself in public and pushed him away, gritting her teeth, “Just so you know, I’m pissed! If you make me go to your office, I swear I will wreck it!”

Liam hooked the corner of his lips. “As you wish.”

Celeste was choked, her face turning red with anger. She quickly got on the elevator, Liam following suit.

When the elevator reached the 10th floor, Liam got off, instructing Owen to take her to his office.

As soon as Celeste entered the office, she reached for the ashtray on the desk, ready to smash it..

Owen calmly reminded her, “Ma’am, that’s a crystal ashtray gifted to Mr. Reed during a business trip in France last year. It’s worth 600,000 dollars… Celeste’s hands trembled, nearly dropping the expensive ashtray.

She pursed her lips, put the ashtray back in its place, and picked up a seemingly ordinary vase on the desk. Just as she raised it above her head, Owen said, “This vase is actually an antique that Sienna bought at an auction when she was young. It cost about 300,000 dollars back then, but now it’s probably worth around 3 million.”

Celeste took a deep breath, put down the vase, and grabbed the pen holder on the desk.

“Ma’am, that’s”

Celeste gritted her teeth, “It’s just a damn pen holder, isn’t it ? It’s not like its worth millions, is it?”

Owen smiled and whispered, “No, but this pen holder was personally carved by President Reed himself as a birthday gift for Mr. Liam. It’s priceless.” Celeste’s face froze

President Reed, Orville Reed, Liam’s father.

She had been married to Liam for years but she had never heard him mention his father in front of her. But she knew how much he respected his father. Every year, as Easter approached, Liam would become moody and even take a week off to stay at the Old Reed Mansion for a few days

That was where he used to live with his parents After Orville passed away, Skyler moved the family out of there to avoid constant reminders of him. Although the old house wasn’t sold, nobody else had visited since then, except for Liam

It was said that Orville passed away from a sudden illness, and Liam was never able to say goodbye, carrying that regret for years.

After all that, Celeste’s anger had mostly disappeared.

She placed the pen holder back onto the table and asked Owen, “Can you pour me a cup of tea?”

“You’re not smashing anything anymore?”

Celeste glared at him, “Would I go crazy and smash such expensive stuff?”

Owen chuckled and went to pour the tea

When Owen came back, Mason had also arrived.
