“Grab the check quickly, before I change my mind.”
Liam stared at her for a while before saying, “Answer one question, and the check is yours.”
“What? Celeste looked up at Liam.
“What did Shawn talk to you about?”
Celeste hesitated for a moment, then pursed her lips and said, “Your mom didn’t receive the white
truffles. If you were too busy, you could’ve just said no.” There was no need to deceive her by saying it
had already been sent.
Liam’s expression darkened, “You think I purposely didn’t send them?”
“If you can’t do something, it’s best not to promise people.”
Liam frowned, wanting to say something, but Owen knocked and entered.
“Mr. Reed, ma’am, the paperwork is done.” Seeing the two not responding, Owen whispered, “Are we
still checking out?”
On the way home from the hospital, both were very quiet.
Owen was actually a bit uneasy, lately he’d frequently heard them quarreling, but now they suddenly
went quiet, making him a bit uncomfortable.
He sneakily glanced at the rearview mirror.
Liam was frowning, lost in thought. Celeste was looking out the window, her expression cold.
What on earth was going on between them again?
“Owen,” Liam suddenly spoke, “did you deliver the white truffles I asked you to send to my mother?”
Celeste’s ears perked up.
Owen nodded, “Yes, I did.”
“Did she personally receive them?”
“Mrs. Reed wasn’t home at the time, her maid received them.”
“Did you tell her it was from us?”
1 made it very clear, as per your request”
Liam’s eyebrows knitted together.
Then why would his mom still say she hadn’t received them?
He grabbed his phone and dialed the house.
The call connected quickly, it’s me.”
The maid recognized Liam’s voice immediately, “Mr. Reed, why are you calling? Skyler and Kaylee
aren’t home.”
“I know, I just want to ask you something.”
“Please ask.”
“I asked Owen to send the white truffles last time, and he said he gave them to you. So why did my
mother say she didn’t get them?”
The maid’s voice became nervous, stammering, “Maybe, maybe I just forgot.”
“Forgot? Liam’s tone was low, “Find them right now, I’ll pick them up on the way”
How could she find them when they’d already been crushed and thrown away by Kaylee?
1, I don’t know where I put them.”
“No worries, we won’t be there for a while. The house isn’t that big, it couldn’t have been lost. Just look
for them.”
The maid was restless, but she didn’t dare say it was Kaylee who had thrown them away. She had to
lie, “Actually, I remember now. While I was cleaning the storage room a few days ago, I found the
truffles had all gone moldy, so I threw them away”
“Threw them away” Liam’s voice dropped. “Those two boxes of truffles were worth thousands, did you
throw them out, or did you take them for yourself?
The accusation of theft was too serious, the maid hurriedly denied, “Not me, i didn’t steal! I’ve been
working for the Reed family for nearly twenty years, and you know my character well How could I dare
to touch the family’s stuff?”
“So where is it?”
Celeste looked at Liarn
It was indeed a bit inappropriate for Liam to question the maid, who had been working for the Reed
family for so many years.
She wanted to say forget it, after all, the slap had already been given, what was the point of pursuing
this now?
Before she could speak, she heard the maid stutter, “It was it was Ms Reed she threw them away, told
me not to.”
“Who are you talking to?”
