Chapter 26
An indifferent voice instantly shattered the tense atmosphere.
As expected, men can’t be trusted.
Celeste walked over with a coy gait and whispered, “That’s the white truffle you promised me.”
Hearing this, Liam’s gaze shifted from the documents to her face.
Her plait and elegant beauty seemed to be the same as before, but Liam knew that this was all an act
Beneath this facade, she was no longer the obedient little kitten she used to be, but a wild cat that would bare its fangs at the slightest provocation
Liam leaned back, squinting his eyes, looking tired, and casually said, “Oh? What did I promise you again?”
Celeste was stunned, seemingly unable to believe that Liam would tease her like this. She gritted her teeth and said, “You said that as long as I accompany you to the welcome party for your sister, you would help me deliver this gift!”
“It seems like I did say that Liam recalled. Just as Celeste was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard him say, “But after giving it some thought, since we’re getting divorced, we shouldn’t accept such valuable gifts from the Campbell family. Let’s just forget about it.” “It’s not that valuable,” Celeste tried to persuade him. ‘Besides, we’re parting on good terms, and our families can still be friends in the future. There shouldn’t be any problem with giving gifts between friends, right?”
Liam chuckled, “Are we really parting on good terms? Isn’t it because I couldn’t satisfy your sexual needs that you asked for a divorce?”
