Chapter 15

There was an extra piece of ribs in her bowl. Celeste looked at Liam, who didn’t even glance at her. He said indifferently, “If you want something, just grab it yourself.”

No, she wasn’t an outsider. She was a temporary actor in this family dinner, both her and Liam just taking what they needed from each other.

Thinking about this, she felt defiant. If they wanted to act, fine, she’d join in!

So she picked up a very spicy piece of chicken and held it to Liam’s lips, “Honey, try this.”

Liam’s eyes widened, and he looked at her strangely.

Celeste smiled, showing a gentle expression.

Liam didn’t like spicy food, so she deliberately chose something spicy to see how he would act!

If he refused, the act would be ruined, and she couldn’t be blamed anyway.

Just as she was secretly pleased with herself, Liam suddenly leaned in and took a bite of the meat, his lips touching her fork. He swallowed it down and, under Celeste’s astonished gaze, commented, “Not bad.”
