My Rich Hot and Infertile or Maybe Not Husband

Chapter 923
She used her son’s money, and the gifts she gave to her son and Celeste weren’t as expensive as the ones she gave to others;
that was Skyler. Everyone depended on their parents, but Skyler depended on her children
Celeste always felt that, in Skyler’s eyes, Liam was her ATM.
Whether it was when Liam was sick or when Liam was summoned by the police due to conflicts, she always found various
reasons to explain her
absence.
Only when she needed money would she occasionally show some affection and perfunctorily treat Liam.
Celeste wanted to complain in front of Liam many times, but each time she swallowed her words before they came out.
At that time, Celeste and Liam’s relationship was not stable, and saying these things would drive a wedge between him and his
mother
Liam was like a man who didn’t like to talk, usually saying nothing, but his heart was clear as a mirror, seeing everything clearly
Celeste lightly poked his brow. “So you’re saying your mom only likes money, not you?”
Liam closed his eyes and took a long while before whispering. “She doesn’t love anyone, whether it’s me or my dad
Celeste was stunned, then half–jokingly said, “She’s pretty good to your sister, though. Her set of jewelry was thousands of times
more expensive than my necklace.”
Liam seemed to think of something and started laughing.
Celeste pinched his face and asked, “What’s so funny?”
Liam said, “So you wore the necklace I gave you to piss her off?”
Celeste was stunned, then realized he was referring to the incident on the day of the birthday party.
Celeste also started laughing, obviously remembering Skyler’s ridiculous expression at the time, and she gently tapped his nose,
saying, “You must have planned to give it to me on that day, didn’t you think about the scene at all?”

Liam chuckled and leaned in close to her ear to whisper, “I did it on purpose.”
Celeste murmured “childish”
Liam laughed for a while, then said, “I don’t care if she doesn’t like me or treats me badly, but she shouldn’t have tried to drive
you away from me like that. I will never forgive her for that.”
Celeste didn’t say anything, just occasionally patting his shoulder.
After a while, Liam asked again, “So you really don’t like me at all?*
Celeste came back to her senses, sighed, and said, Is this topic not over yet?
“Maybe a little bit.
Her voice sounded like she was humoring him.
Liam frowned, clearly not satisfied with her answer
Tell me what you don’t like about me, and I’ll work harder
Celeste looked at his serious face and teased him, “You’re willing to spend money on me.”
Seeing his heartbroken expression, Celeste stopped teasing him and pulled him over for a passionate kiss on his face. “If I didn’t
like you, would I be dating you? Am I out of my mind? If I liked money, wouldn’t it be better to find a rich man to take care of me?”
This was a rare confession, but Liam only focused on the second half “How much money do you need to keep?”
Celeste chucked a pillow at Liam’s face and said, “Go hit the sack already.”
It took some effort for Liam to roll off her, still clinging to her waist like glue and not letting her go.
With no other choice but to think about Owen waiting outside, Celeste grabbed her phone and sent Owen a text.
Owen, you better bounce first
Owen quickly texted back, message received. He then tossed his phone onto the couch and hit the shower.
Owen had seen this coming from a mile away and hadn’t been waiting downstairs from the get–go.
