Chapter 270
Just as Celeste finished posting on Twitter, she heard a noise from upstairs, like something falling to the floor.
She hurried upstairs and pushed open the door to see Liam sitting on the floor, his head bumped and swollen. He sat there with a confused expression.j
Celeste couldn’t help but curse, “Serves you right.” She squatted down and waved her hand in front of Liam, “Liam, can you
hear me?”
Liam frowned at her, his eyes squinting and his mouth tightly shut.
He was always like this when he was drunk.
Some people, when drunk, either sleep or talk nonsense. Liam was different: his brain seemed to stop working when he was drunk, but on the outside, he looked fine. In reality, his mind was a mess.
Liam’s drinking capacity was well–known among his friends. He always tried to avoid drinking when doing business or attending parties, but if he couldn’t, he’d conspire with friends for help.
Otherwise, with this kind of alcohol tolerance, he could get drunk and be swindled out of his company without even knowing.
“Who are you?”
Liam rubbed on his temples.
Celeste raised an eyebrow: was he drunk to the point of memory loss?
She squinted her eyes, going along with it, “Sweetie, how can you not recognize your own mom?”
“Mom?”
“Mhmm.”
Might as well take advantage of this situation!
She took out her phone, about to record a video to humiliate Liam later, but before she could start, Liam suddenly grabbed her wrist, “Celeste?”
Darn!
He sobered up so quickly?
Celeste looked up and saw that Liam still had that bewildered expression. He hadn’t sobered up at all.
“My head hurts so much.”
He frowned, suddenly lowering his head and placing her hand on his forehead, gently rubbing it.
Celeste felt a bit dumbfounded.
Why had drunk Liam become so… obedient?
“You’re drunk. Of course your head hurts.”
Celeste tried to pull her hand back, but Liam held on tight.
“No, it’s you who made my head hurt.”
Liam said seriously.
Celeste’s mouth twitched, “Do I really have that much power?”
Liam closed his eyes, hoarsely saying, “You always… make me so annoyed. You want to divorce me, argue with me, and ignoring me annoys me the most.”
Celeste hesitated for a moment, then asked softly, “Why would you be annoyed if I ignored you?”
Liam didn’t say anything with his eyes closed.
Celeste looked down and saw that Liam had already fallen asleep.
She sighed, hoping he wouldn’t say such things that made her care anymore.
Grandview Villa.
Sydney anxiously asked, “How is it? Still no one answering?”
Palmer shook his head, “Owen said Mr. Reed has an important dinner tonight and told us to handle it ourselves.”
Sydney frowned, “Did you say exactly what I told you?”
“Yes.”
Sydney gritted her teeth, “It must be Owen taking matters into his own hands!”
Last time at Grandview Villa, Liam got drunk and she almost succeeded. But at the critical moment, Owen suddenly appeared and took Liam away.
Ever since then, Liam started avoiding her on purpose.
She was so pissed off. This must be Owen’s doing again.
The guy is such a pain in the ass! Always ruining her plans one after another!
She was super anxious, and just at that moment, Lorinda called and asked her to help retweet something again.
Sydney frowned and said, “Lorinda, let’s do it another day. You saw what happened today. Even if I retweet it now, it’s not gonna get any attention.”Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
