Chapter 515
Liam’s words were a reminder to her not to forget how she had married into the Reed family and that she had no right to look down on Celeste, who was married openly and honorably.
At that time, her means of marrying into the Reed family had caused quite stir in their circle. As her status gradually stabilized, no one dared mention her past in front of her again.
She never thought that the first person to expose her disgrace would be her own son!
Liam continued, “Not just today, but from now on, I won’t deal with any of the Barlow family’s affairs. Instead of coming here to make a fuss, you should remind Jade Barlow to hurry up and improve the fire safety of the other production lines, or he might lose everything”
After saying that, he walked past Skyler and left.
Owen was shocked by Mr. Reed’s decisiveness this time. He immediately followed.
Skyler stood there, shaking with anger.
She thought that after Liam and Celeste got divorced, everything would gradually return to her control. But she didn’t expect Liam to be so bewitched by that cunning woman that he would even turn against her.
The phone in her bag kept vibrating, and she knew without looking that it was Jade Barlow’s call.
He and his wife had come to her earlier this morning to ask for help, and she had promised to handle things. Now, with the situation as it was, how was she going to explain it to the Barlow family?
Skyler’s face darkened, and after a while, she turned and got on the elevator, pressing the button for the 19th floor.
Back in the office, Liam loosened his tie and asked, “Did she post anything today?”
Owen quickly pulled out his phone to check.
Celeste indeed posted something.
She posted a screenshot of her bank account balance on Facebook with the caption, “If I had known getting divorced would make me rich, I’d do it ten times a year.”
Liam was speechless.
The comments below were even more interesting.
Nicolas: “Rich lady, support me.
Trisha: “Only virgins need apply, our Letti has a thing for them.”
Nicolas sent a middle finger emoji.
Celeste: “Virgin or not, it doesn’t matter, you just need better skills than my ex.”
Owen nervously observed Liam’s expression.
As expected, Liam’s face had turned as dark as the bottom of a pan.
Mrs. Reed wasn’t the kind of person who spoke without thinking, so he seriously suspected that she had deliberately posted this for Liam to see. Owen was right. Celeste originally wanted to post. “You guys, be serious
But before sending it, she suddenly thought of Liam, that bastard who had been spying on her social media lately, so she deleted the message and re–edited it, resulting in the one that Liam was now looking at
Obviously, this sentence easily poked fun at Mr. Reed’s sensitive male ega.
Owen watched as Liam’s face changed color several times, and if it weren’t for the fact that his phone was blocked, he would have probably called his wife to argue with her already.
Owen coughed and comforted, “It’s better than demanding a virgin. Skills can be practiced, but not being a virgin can’t be helped.”
Liam’s mouth twitched, and he gritted his teeth and said, “You’re done now, huh? Then redo the report!”
Owen could not find the words to respond.
As soon as Owen walked out the door, a bunch of express packages were delivered from downstairs. Some were products sent by partner companies, some were documents that Liam needed to sign, and most of them were urgent.
Liam was sitting behind his desk, opening express packages.
Halfway through, he suddenly noticed an anonymous letter in the stack.
The letter only had the recipient’s info, but no info on who sent it.
Liam gave the envelope a little squeeze, it was pretty thin, seemingly just one or two pieces of paper.
So he went ahead and opened it up.
as he did his face would fall.
Chapter 515
It turned out that it wasn’t paper inside the envelope but a photograph.
The photo showed Coco lying in a hospital bed.
With a serious look on his face, Liam flipped the photo over, where there were two lines of text written. [10 AM tomorrow, at the J City Oceanside Avenue courthouse, come and sit in on a trial. If you don’t…]
The text didn’t continue, but the message was already loud and clear by sending a photo of Coco as a threat.
