Chapter 628
Liam was dumbstruck.
This was the second time she had blown him away with her acting
The last time was when she played that psycho in “Mastermind of Law”
Celeste just seemed to sparkle in front of the camera.
Even if you were familiar with her face, when she was in front of the camera, you’d think she was the character itself
To others, she was like a night pearl covered in dust, and once the dust was removed, the light could no longer be hidden.
But in Liam’s eyes, she was never obscured by dust. He just kept that light hidden in his heart, for his eyes only.
Yet, the darker it gets, the more dazzling the night pearl, destined to be gazed upon by the world.
He couldn’t hide it
Celeste came out with the cut fruit to see the scene in the dining room and frowned
Liam, Nicolas, and Trisha were already sitting at the dining table.
Liam was expressionless, Nicolas and Trisha were glaring at each other, and the atmosphere was eenly tense.
Celeste amved and broke the eenie tension.
Nicolas, being tactful, stood up and took the plate from Celeste, Thanks for your hard work, sit down and eat quickly, the food is getting cold.”

“I heard Liam helped you move today, so I invited him to dinner you don’t mind, do you?”
“Of course not, he’s not an outsider, night, Mr. Reed?”
Celeste smiled on the surface, but was grumbling inside
She really couldn’t be lenient with Nicolas. This guy was Liam’s think tank. She had a hard time dealing with Liam, and Nicolas, this cunning guy, could dig a hole for her at any time.
Nicolas clicked his tongue, “You’re really generous.”
He then took out the wine. “We didn’t come empty–handed, look, we brought wine, Lafite”
Tnsha: “You a boss, bring this kind of wine to fool people?”
“This kind of wine?” Nicolas gritted his teeth, “It’s from 96, more than ten thousand a bottle, okay? Each sip costs several bucks! And who said I’m a small boss? I’m also a billionaire boss, okay?”
Trisha rolled her eyes and served Celeste a bowl of soup.
Nicolas immediately handed over his bowl
Tnisha ignored him, but Nicolas was “resolute.” After Trisha served the soup, he took the ladle and served himself a bowl, of course, not forgetting to serve his good buddy a bowl
The soup was simmered for a long time, milky white in color, the pepper taste was very light, but just right, it didn’t mask the fresh taste of the soup.
After a sip, Nicolas taste buds were immediately conquered
Although the taste was not the best he had ever had, it surprisingly suited his taste.
Nicolas: “Little bully”
Tnsha said impatiently, “What?”
“Your soup… it’s pretty good.” Nicolas praised sincerely.
Trisha snorted. “My reputation as a cooking god isn’t for nothing, right?”
Nicolas laughed for a while.
This Trisha, why was she so endearing?
Celeste didn’t say much at the dinner table.
Mainly because she was still mad at Liam. He had pretended to be drunk and deceived her a while ago.
if the quarreled with Liam and mentioned the reason, it would be too inappropriate for children to hear.
Nicolas and Tnsha were there, she had to leave some dignity for Liam
So the meal was relatively peaceful, with only Nicolas and Trisha arguing from time to time
He ate and chatted, and actually drank most of the pot of soup
After eating, he even volunteered to help clean up the dishes
Til do it”
Celeste said
Guests shouldn’t have to clean up the dishes.
Nicolas didn’t decline and went to the living room to drink tea.
Liam took off his suit, rolled up his sleeves, and helped her clean up
Seeing him move, Celeste stopped, pulled down her sleeves, and said lightly, “Clean them well”
She then went back to her room

Liam
He looked down at the pile of dishes, feeling a headache coming on.
It took Llam more than ten minutes to finish washing the dishes
Liam had been living in a privileged environment since he was a child and had no experience with dish washing. After washing a pile of tableware, the water covered his body, and his shirt and trousers had many water stains on the front.
He came out of the kitchen.
Nicolas and Trisha were playing games on their phones in the living room
Liam ignored these two and quickly found Celeste’s room after scanning a few rooms.
As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw the rabbit doll on Celeste’s bed. He had one at home too
But the room was empty, Celeste was nowhere to be seen.
Just as Liam was wondering, he was shoved hard in the back
He stumbled forward a few steps and then fell onto the bed
Celeste pounced from behind, holding a pillow and aiming for his head.
“Annoying guy, who let you into my room!”
She cursed and hit, always alming for his face, as if venting her grievances
The feather pillow was not heavy and didn’t hurt when it hit him.
Liam easily grabbed her wrist, turned over, and swapped their positions.
He narrowed his eyes, saying dangerously, “Are you setting a trap here?”
He thought, having had expenence last time, why didn’t Celeste lock the door? Turned out she was intentionally waiting for him.
Celeste glared at him, “You barged into my room uninvited, what’s wrong with me hitting you?”
Seeing her spirited look, Liam felt his heart soften a bit, “Nothing. I think it’s pretty good.”
As he said that, he pinched Celeste’s face lightly, “in the future, whoever dares to treat you like me, you will beat them hard, and I will bear it for you until they are disabled”
