The Priceless Bride: A Tycoon’s Obsession

“Yes, that’s a bitch. After all, opposites attract. She’s pretty, and my husband loves her so much!” Aurelia drew circles on the table with her index finger, and everything she said was heard by the people at the next table.

Liam smiled indifferently, “No matter how precious he is, it’s just a dog, Aurelia. Are you not as important as a dog in his heart?”

Aurelia’s smile grew, “Yeah, I wondered that too!”

Laura next door was scalded by hot water because of Aurelia’s first words. After Callum asked the waiter to bring the scald ointment, she stopped reacting.

Seeing Aurelia’s words going too far , she looked at the motionless man next to her with a wronged look. She didn’t believe that the man didn’t hear it! But Callum didn’t even react at all… Silently brewing his emotions, a tear fell from his eyes.

Callum didn’t see it, but the boy sitting opposite him saw it and stopped talking. “Laura, why are you crying? I’m sorry, did I say something wrong?”

Laura frantically reached for the tissue on the dining table, wiped away her tears and shook her head, “No, I’m fine…”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Callum then realized that Laura was crying. He frowned and handed her a tissue. He ordered the boy opposite him calmly, “Don’t bother her anymore!”

The boy was the same age as Laura. When he saw Callum for the first time, he was frightened by his coldness. Now Callum threw a cold and hard order at him. The boy nodded repeatedly with cold sweat on his forehead. “In that case, I… will leave first… Laura… I am really sorry for the inconvenience!”

The boy finished speaking with difficulty and rolled away with his schoolbag.

When they were the only two left, Laura whispered, “Uncle, does Aunt have any problem with me? She seems to dislike me very much. Last time, she targeted Nelson because of tens of thousands of dollars worth of cosmetics, and this time she scolded me again… Uncle, I…”

Laura felt more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and she cried until she was out of breath.

Of course Aurelia also heard her crying. Not only that, she turned around and saw Callum holding Laura in his arms and comforting her, “Don’t cry, you’re not feeling well…”

Aurelia was stunned. She had been completely lost in his gentleness some time ago. She thought his gentleness would only be for her, but she didn’t expect that she was just being too sentimental…

Laura is much more important to Callum than she thought.

All the dishes here were served, and the man and woman in the back had stood up and came to their table. Callum put his hands in his pockets and said lightly, “Mr. Moore, it’s delicious. I’ve asked the waiter to pay the bill. We have something to do first.”

His eyes intentionally or unintentionally glanced at the woman who was concentrating on eating, but the woman seemed not to see him and just kept eating the food on the plate.

Liam stood up and shook hands with Callum, saying cheerfully, “Mr. Finnegan, you’re so polite! In that case, thank you very much, and we’ll have dinner together next time we have the chance!”

Callum nodded calmly and prepared to leave with Laura, whose eyes were red.

Laura didn’t move, she looked at Aurelia, “Aurelia, please don’t misunderstand me, okay? Tonight is just…”

Aurelia put down her fork and interrupted her whisper, “You don’t have to explain to me, I know who my husband is.”

Laura glanced at her, bit her lower lip and said nothing.

Callum also looked deeply at Aurelia, then turned and left.

Liam picked up the red wine and clinked it with her wine glass. Aurelia reluctantly picked up the red wine and the two clinked their glasses.

“Do you know Mr Finnegan’s girlfriend?”

Aurelia nodded, took a sip of red wine, and looked at the table full of food without any appetite. “Liam, let me be frank! I agreed to have dinner with you tonight because I wanted to tell you for the last time that I’m married and there’s no possibility for us. If there’s nothing else to do in the future, it’s better for us not to meet!”

After saying that, she stood up and prepared to leave, but her hand was held by Liam.

She turned around and Liam was still smiling, “Okay, then you can just treat us as old friends and finish this meal with old friends, okay?”

“…” Aurelia rolled her eyes at the air.

Liam noticed her impatience and chuckled, “Your temper is still the same as before. You get impatient so quickly! Aurelia, let’s not waste food. Finish your meal and I’ll take you home.”

Since he said so, Aurelia had no choice but to sit back down and finish all the food in front of her as if she were doing a task.

After coming out of the restaurant, just as Liam said, he sent her home after dinner.

Liam’s car was driven over by the driver, and before Aurelia could get in, a Bentley stopped beside him. Aurelia looked at the license plate number and her heart skipped a beat. It was Callum’s car.

Rory got out of the car and walked quickly towards Aurelia, “Mrs. Finnegan, Mr. Finnegan asked me to take you back.”

Liam opened the car door and turned around. Rory said something but he didn’t hear it clearly. Just as he was about to approach them, he heard Aurelia’s refusal, “No, Mr Moore can just take me home!”

Then Aurelia got into the Porsche directly. Liam glanced at Rory and raised his eyebrows. Did these two have a fight?

This was what Liam wanted to see the most. He walked over, patted Rory’s shoulder comfortingly, and got into the car.

Rory watched the car leave and helplessly called Callum to report the situation.

In the car, Liam seemed to know why Aurelia was in a bad mood. He didn’t say much, but just asked her address, “Where do you live now?”

The Porsche had already driven out of the restaurant parking lot. “Just find a roadside in front where you can park and stop.”

The car became quiet, with only the light music playing back and forth.

Liam sighed, “Aurelia, you don’t love him, right?” He couldn’t see any love in the way Aurelia looked at Rory…

Aurelia smiled, “No, on the contrary, I love him very much!”

Liam thought she was just being strong, pretending to be strong in front of him, “Yes, yes, you love him very much.” He closed the distance between the two of them, letting the girl look at his sincere eyes, “I don’t mind being a spare tire. If he doesn’t treat you well and you are not happy, come back to me, okay?”

Aurelia was a little confused by his look, “… Liam, if you like me, why did you get together with someone else in the first place?”

Liam lowered his head in shame, raised his head again, and hugged her in his arms, “I said, I regret it, Aurelia, when you were not by my side, I realized how important you are, really…”
