Celeste spoke on the phone, "Cindy called me just now. She asked if you liked Liam. I was on my guard and didn't tell her. I even denied it, but she insisted that you like Liam. I don't know what she wants with

that information, and I am a little worried."

Maria was surprised. "What? She actually called you? Did she recognize me?"

"She saw you?" Celeste was also surprised. "Aren't you in England? Did she go to England?"

"No, I'm back," Maria told her.

"What!" Celeste screamed, "You are back here?"

"That's right." Maria nodded.

At this moment, Liam looked at Maria and suddenly moved. Maria immediately took a deep breath.

Celeste was flustered. She thought she had misheard it and asked, "What's wrong?"

Maria immediately shot Liam a glare. He looked at her innocently. His eyes were bright, as if he didn't mean it.

Maria was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and would be exposed. Hence, she told Celeste, "Don't tell anyone about this first. I will call you later, okay? I am busy now."

"What are you busy with?" Celeste was very surprised and puzzled. "Why did you suddenly come back from England? It's so far. Did you come back with Liam?"

At this moment, Liam took over the phone and told Celeste, "Celeste, Maria will call you back in half an hour."

With that, he hung up the phone.

Celeste was dumbfounded. When she heard Liam's voice, combined with Maria's reaction a while ago, she realized something and her face turned red.

At this moment, Gary entered their room and saw Celeste holding her phone. Her face was very red, as if she was greatly embarrassed and shy.

He immediately stepped forward and asked, "Celeste, what's wrong?"

Celeste looked up and met Gary's eyes. She hurriedly explained, "I just received a call from Cindy. She asked me about Maria. After that, I called Maria. Guess where she is right now?"

Gary was startled, as she looked at Celeste, smiled and said, "She is back, isn't she? And she is with Liam."

Celeste's eyes immediately widened. "You actually managed to guess?"

Gary sneered. "It wasn't a guess. Judging by your embarrassed looks, they must be doing some couple's business."

That was the only reason why Celeste's face would turn so red.

Celeste widened her eyes in shock once more. She looked at Gary and felt that he was simply a god. He could successfully guess everything.

"You guessed that too?"

"Haha, they are just being together, aren't they?" Gary hugged Celeste and said, "They are in a fiery phase in their love life. We don't even need to think what they would do. Hence, you shouldn't always question me in the future. See? Liam and Maria are doing the same thing. Every couple does this."

Celeste looked at him in surprise, then she stuck out her tongue.

Gary kissed her and said, "Did Cindy call you and ask about Maria and Liam?"

"Yes." Celeste got serious. "That's what worries me. I don't think it's that simple."

"Where there is wind, there will be waves." Gary nodded.

"Maria told me that she must have guessed it.

From her tone, it seems like they have met, or that Cindy knows about Liam and Maria being in a relationship," Celeste speculated. "Maria will only call me back in half an hour."

"They must have been busy when you called them." Gary smiled sheepishly. "You called them at the wrong time."

"I did not expect that either." Celeste laughed embarrassedly.

Gary kissed her again. "Do you think we should do it first before we wait for the call, or wait until they call before doing it?"

"Wait for the call first," Celeste said immediately.

She did not have such great psychological qualities as to answer the call in the middle of that.

Gary knew that she would say that, thus he did not force her. Now that they had reconciled with each other, he would respect Celeste.

After Liam hung up the phone, he looked at Maria.

Maria was very surprised. She did not expect that Liam would say hello to Celeste in such a frank way. Besides, what they were doing was supposed to be kept a secret. However, Liam did not mind being discovered by Celeste.

She looked at him and felt inexplicably glad.

This was the case for every woman. Once a trouble in their heart was completely unlocked, she would give all her heart and feelings to their man.

She grinned. "Liam, Celeste must have guessed what we are doing."

"So what?" Liam looked at her and asked her.

"Are you really not interested in her at all?" Maria asked him with a smile.

This was a provocative question.

Sure enough, Liam gave her a warning.

Maria immediately took a deep breath and begged for mercy, "I was wrong. I know I was wrong. Liam, oh, don't be like this. I know, I was wrong."

How could Liam ever hurt Maria? He would never.

He looked down at her and said seriously, "Maria, we don't need to trouble ourselves with the past. I did not know how to cherish you before, and now I really regret it."

"I was joking with you. I am not that petty." Maria was also calm.

"Then, focus more and cooperate with me. We have to call them later." His voice was hoarse.

"Okay.

After that, Maria still begged for mercy.

Liam was finally satisfied.

They hugged each other. Maria felt dizzy and enjoyed the laziness at the moment. She closed her eyes and asked in a low voice, "Liam, won't you have back problems from using so much force?" Upon hearing that, Liam immediately reached out and clenched his fists. "Are you worried about me, or are you provoking me? Or, do you think that I was being too polite to you just now, seeing how you have the courage to say that to me?"

"I am worried about you," Maria quickly explained. "Why are you so sensitive?"

"Because men don't like being despised by women," Liam said frankly. "Hence, I hope that I can be praised by you."

Maria was flustered and immediately said, "I was praising you."

"But I could not tell."

"Because I was squeezed dry by you and I feel like my organ has been damaged by you. That's why I'm worried about you," Maria explained. "In short, I think you are very powerful, really powerful. It's not just a compliment, I am telling you the truth."

Only then did Liam open his eyes, as he looked at Maria, and said, "Well, I have to admit that I am very happy with what you said."

"You give Gary a call. I need to take a break to save some strength," Maria told him.

"Okay, let me do that," Liam picked up the phone and called Gary.

The call was quickly picked up. Liam told Gary, "Gary, I believe that Cindy has probably guessed that Maria and I are dating." "Liam, you guessed it? Tell me the whole story. Do you want them to know that you are in a relationship with Maria or not?"

Upon hearing this, Liam laughed, "Okay, I know that you are worried about Maria. I don't care about being discovered. I can publicly announce my relationship with Maria, but I just don't want Maria to get hurt." Hearing this, Gary immediately smiled. "Then, I am relieved. If that's the case, let's figure out the case and see what's going on."

Liam told Gary about what had happened.

They turned on their loudspeakers, thus Celeste and Maria could hear it.

"Looks like she guessed it. She met Maria but couldn't see her face clearly. Considering the fact that Uncle Zachary wanted to help you terminate your contract, Cindy must have guessed that Maria is your girlfriend," Gary said. "She must have called Celeste to test her." "I think so too," Liam replied.

"Don't worry. If she tries anything funny again, I won't hold back," Gary said. "On account of Celeste's reputation back then, I still let her off the hook. But now, it seems like she doesn't want to hold back." Liam seemed to have heard about what had happened in the past, but he was on Cindy's side back then. Now, he chose to leave her.

"Gary, do you think it's feasible for Liam to terminate the contract?" Maria still cared about this the most.

Gary told Maria, "Of course it's feasible. They are blacklisting Liam. This matter is completely feasible. Just wait, I'll go downstairs and tell Heinz. Tomorrow, I'll go look for a team of lawyers. We will talk when we meet."
