Chapter 85
When the news of her marriage to Liam came out, one socialite couldn’t accept it and jumped off a building to end her life.
Of course, Celeste heard this from Nicolas, who was always talking nonsense. The truth of the matter was yet to be verified, but Liam’s popularity in the socialite circle was undeniable.
She and Liam had been married for three years, and she still occasionally found anonymous letters in their mailbox with ambiguous content; bolder ones would send explicit photos directly to Liam..
She only discovered this when she used Liam’s computer to modify the sound card data.
At that time, they had been married for less than a year and had not consummated their marriage. When she saw those photos, she was stunned, thinking that Liam had cheated on her.
She was young and naive back then, thinking that Liam didn’t touch her because he liked the type of women in the pictures. She was angry, sad, and a little unconvinced, so she did something stupid that she still felt embarrassed about.
She bought a set of clothes identical to the ones worn by the woman in the photos, then one night, after drinking half a bottle of vodka, she plucked up the courage and crawled into Liam’s bed.
She couldn’t remember what happened afterward….
The next day when she woke up, Liam was gone, and she was left in pain but still feeling smug.
That afternoon, Liam called to ask where she bought the clothes she wore the night before.
Celeste thought he was extremely satisfied and flirting with her during the day, so she hesitated to tell him. But then Liam said, “The design department sent me the product image a few days ago, but it hasn’t been released yet, and there are already knock-offs. We’re currently tracking down the source of the leak.”
Celeste “You mean the sample in your email?”
Liam paused, “How did you know?”
She later learned that there were indeed many women sending private photos to Liam, but the one she clicked on that day was a new product from one of their lingerie divisions. They had sent Liam the effect picture.
She threw away the lingerie that night, but a few days later, Liam brought back an identical set of genuine products, saying it was a trial product from the company.
That lingerie still hangs in their cloakroom, reminding her of her foolishness from time to time.
“Kaylee, who is this?” someone finally asked about the silent Celeste.
Kaylee glanced at her and casually said, “Oh, her? She’s my sister-in-law.”
The enthusiasm waned a bit, and a girl with long, slender eyes smiled and said, “Wearing a suit instead of a dress to this event, your sister-in-law has quite a personality”
Kaylee shrugged and said, “Yeah, no manners, no discipline. In a way, that’s a personality too.”
Celeste smiled and said, “There’s no need to analyze yourself so clearly.”
Kaylee was speechless, so was everyone else.
Even though the words were clearly meant to mock her, she managed to skillfully fire back with a laugh. Seemed like everyone’s previous judgment of Celeste being a “pushover” was way off the mark
Surrounded by familiar faces from their circle, Kaylee couldn’t really let off steam and, clutching her dress, entered the elevator with a straight face.
Celeste followed her closely.
When they reached the 12th floor, as soon as they got out of the elevator, Kaylee said she needed to use the restroom.
Since Celeste didn’t have an invitation, she could only wait outside.
After waiting for more than ten minutes with no sign of Kaylee, Celeste was about to call her when suddenly a scream came from the
restroom.
