like walking into a trap
No particular reason I just didn’t feel like going. I thought we’d cleared everything No need to beat a dead horse,” she said.
Jarred looked down 1 waited for you all night that day
Before Celeste could respond. Liam cut in. “You should’ve known this could happen when you decided to wait. Whom are you blaming now?”

Liam gave him a casual glance, “One of the perks of a big company. Mr Wilson, is its wide range of operations. You ever consider I might have a stake in your cinema too?
His words implied, I’m filthy rich
Celeste couldn’t help but laugh
Liam was hot one to flaunt his wealth. That was usually her job

She knew Liam was on a mission today Otherwise, he would’ve made his stance clear No need to show off his wealth
His patience was to ensure her plan went smoothly

As he was about to leave, he turned to Celeste, Tl be in J City from now on. Don’t you think it’s time to fulfill your promise?”
Celeste was confused
Liam didn’t know how to react.
Seeing their expressions, Jarred felt quite pleased. Leaving a vague Tll be waiting behind, he left the wedding venue. He only came to show his face. With the ceremony over there was no need to stick around.
