True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1306

Liam was even more exasperated the moment he saw Ernest. Seeing that Ernest was smiling at him, he quickly calmed down and said sarcastically with a fake smile, "Ernest, you are so good at lying."

Ernest played dumb and just beamed at him. With that, the two of them just stood there laughing, and there was an obviously tense atmosphere surrounding them.

"Liam, what are you talking about? I don't quite understand."

"You don't understand?" Liam sneered sarcastically, "What do you don't understand? You're so hypocritical trying to play dumb in front of me."

"Liam, I don't agree with you," Ernest was not furious at all. After all, it was indeed his fault for lying to a friend, but Liam was definitely on Cindy's side. With that, Ernest didn't dare to say too much about Celeste.

"Do you know what I want to do now?" Liam glared at Ernest, his pupils filled with sheer fury.

Ernest took a guess. Liam desperately wanted to

beat him up.

But so what?

Ernest was not the kind of person who would just stand there and allow a one- sided battle. He would fight back for sure.

But the only thing Ernest could do now was to play dumb.

"I can't figure out what you are going to do!" He shook his head and shrugged innocently, "I really wanted to understand your thoughts."

Liam clenched his fists at his side with a loud crack.

Ernest still had an innocent smile on his face as he asked," Liam, do you want to start a fight?"

"I really want to beat you up, and you do deserve it," Liam growled, "Is it fun playing around with me?"

"Of course not," Ernest shook his head quickly, "What tricks can I play with you, Liam? If you didn't come, I would have gone out by now."

"Hah!" Liam became even more exasperated, his chest heaving up and down. It seemed like his anger was about to burst through his chest at any moment.

Concurrently, Maria had come over and saw that Liam was standing with his back towards her, while Ernest was standing at the top of the stairs. It seemed like a fight was about to break out.

Maria was a little worried and stopped them, "Ernest, stop messing around!"

"Maria, you'd better go back to your room," Ernest was afraid that Maria would say that Celeste was staying here, so he quickly interrupted her words.

Maria was dumbfounded and pursed her lips. When she looked at Liam again, there was a look of hesitation and apology in her eyes.

She wanted to tell him, but she was not someone who would betray her friends.

Liam turned around and looked at Maria's hesitant face. He squinted his eyes slightly. He could see that the girl in front of him had something to say.

"You're Maria, right?" Liam looked at her and asked.

"I'm Maria Lowe," Maria immediately clarified, "You can call me Maria."

"Okay, Maria then. Tell me where Celeste is?" Liam was direct.

Maria was frightened and subconsciously glanced at Ernest.

With just one glance, everything was exposed.

Ernest was very calm and did not feel sorry or guilty at all. He just looked at them calmly.

Liam stood on the steps, his gazes switching between Maria and Ernest. He had long lost his patience.

"Maria, are you not willing to tell me as well?" Liam asked, "Aren't you friends with Celeste?"

Maria was stunned and nodded, "I'm sorry, Mr. Robinson. I'm a friend of Celeste. It's precisely because I'm her friend that I'm more worried about Celeste. I..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Liam caught on to her and smirked, "You can't tell me. That means you know, but you refuse to tell me."

Maria couldn't say it aloud. She looked at Liam and avoided his gaze. She didn't know how to face him.

Liam's sharp gaze pierced through Maria's words. He was rooted in place for a very long time. He just stared at Maria and waited for her to come clean.

However, Maria was still silent.

"Liam," Ernest chuckled, "Did you come all the way to my house just to stare at my cousin?"

Liam snorted with contempt in his eyes, "You're putting on such a show. Do you think I don't know anything about it?"

Hearing this, Ernest's gaze flashed.

It seemed like Liam was certain that they had brought Celeste away.
