Chapter 11

“Dad, you run a company too. Which intern at your company drives a Porsche to work? Liam gets million–dollar projects and still only drives a Mercedes to meet clients. Why does she need a high–end car?” Celeste asked.

Shawn was annoyed, “Every company is different. You’re just enjoying life with the Reed family. What do you know?”

“Enjoying life with the Reed family?” Celeste sneered, “When you persuaded me to quit my job, you didn’t say that. Besides, I’m not the only one the Reed family supports.”

“Smack!” Shawn slapped the table angrily. “It’s just lending a car, why do you have to bring up old stuff?”

Angel quickly tried to calm Shawn, “Dad, don’t get mad. It’s my fault for mentioning it. If Celeste doesn’t want to lend it, just let it go. Don’t be angry with her.”

The more Angel tried to calm him down, the more Shawn disliked his own daughter Celeste, “Look at Angel, younger than you but more sensible!”

Dinner ended on a sour note. As they were leaving, Angel put two boxes of white truffles on Celeste’s car and said through the window, “Sis, Liam didn’t come today because of work, right?”
