Meanwhile, at Northorn City Airport.An international flight landed right on time.A woman pulled her suitcase out of the terminal and stood at the airport entrance, removing her oversized sunglasses.She looked at the blue sky and white clouds in front of her and smiled slightly."Northorn City, I'm back."After all these years, Sophia finally set foot on this land again! She had given Liam time to heal from his heartbreak over Suzy, trying her best not to upset him or appear in front of him. But the result was that he suddenly announced his marriage!And the bride still wasn't her.How could that be?If she could break up Liam and Suzy four years ago, she could defeat any woman trying to take Liam away from her four years later.Sophia didn't believe that after spending her entire life pursuing Liam, she wouldn't succeed.After pausing for a moment, she took out her phone and called Clive. "I'm back.""Back where? In the country?""Northorn City." Sophia laughed. "Liam didn't even te
Clive quickly responded, "It's not her, so don't go after her again! You people even caused her mother's death, and you had no qualms about it."Even though Clive didn't support Liam and Suzy being together before, thinking it was irrational and that it would affect Liam's career, he never intended to use such extreme measures to force Suzy away."We didn't cause her mother's death. Her mother died from an illness brought on by emotional instability.""You and I both know the truth! We've been friends for years, and I've kept this from Liam, covering for you. That's all I can do. Don't expect me to be involved any further."With that, Clive hung up.Sophia stared at the now dark screen of her phone, her frown deepening.Something wasn't right!She felt Clive's reaction was clearly protective of Suzy. When they met abroad, he didn't show any favoritism towards her. Now, he was adamant about leaving Suzy alone.This could only mean that... Suzy had reappeared recently.Something must hav
With a previous marriage, it wasn’t unexpected that she had a child.In fact, the moment Ryan found out about Suzy's connection to Liam, he no longer needed any confirmation from anyone else.The resemblance between the father and daughter was undeniable to anyone who saw them.Suzy felt herself losing her balance. She could pretend to be strong and invincible in any situation, but when it came to her child, she couldn't let the Park family find out about her."Why are you telling me all this? What do you want?" Suzy's eyes sharpened with suspicion, her gaze piercing into Ryan.He raised his hands in a calming gesture. "Don't jump to conclusions. Yesterday, Clive and I talked a lot. At one point, he asked for a photo of your daughter, and I told him I didn't have one.""You have a photo of my daughter?"Ryan shrugged. "I don't, but if I wanted one, I could easily check the surveillance at Dreamland Hotel, couldn't I?"Suzy kept quiet."But I didn't do that. I also discouraged Clive's
He was well aware of the company's recent projects and their profits. He also made every effort to retain talented employees, always coming across as approachable during conversations.His love for play was just a facade.It made people less guarded around him.Suzy knew she couldn't afford to get too close to a man like Ryan. She was aware that her own abilities and strategies couldn't compete with his."Mr. Paynes, I think you believe I'm worth pursuing because you don't know me well enough." Suzy composed herself, smiled politely, and subtly distanced herself from him. "Clive probably told you about my history with Liam, but did he mention... that I was the one who broke up with him? I initiated the divorce because I fell for someone else.""He did mention that you left Liam for another man," Ryan said, stopping her from speaking further. "But I don't believe it."Ryan felt he had never misjudged anyone before!He had observed Suzy carefully. He wouldn't pursue a woman lightly, esp
Clive nodded, still looking a bit dazed from his hangover, with a lingering headache.Ryan watched him go into the bathroom to freshen up, glancing at Clive's phone on the table.There were several missed calls from Sophia.Ryan knew who Sophia was! She had made significant contributions to the Park Group, earning a reputation in the business world. He also knew about her feelings for Liam.Ryan paused, then walked over to Clive's phone, opened the contacts, found Sophia's number, and noted it down."I'm planning to leave tomorrow. I've already booked my flight," Clive suddenly said, coming out of the bathroom while drying his face with a towel.Ryan was startled but relieved Clive hadn't seen him with the phone."You're not staying a bit longer?""No, there's a lot to do at the company. Liam, the workaholic, has taken on several big projects, including some requiring international travel. I need to go back and help."Ryan raised an eyebrow. "He's going abroad too?""Not sure, but his
The truth was that the Park Group had enough influence in the business world to easily shut down a company like Ryan's."Liam isn't the type to be a sore loser, is he?""...He can't afford to lose Suzy."...After making her fourth call to Clive without an answer, Sophia had to accept that she had lost an important ally.Without Clive acting as her informant around Liam, things were going to be more difficult.Sitting on the sofa in her hotel room, Sophia carefully considered where to start investigating Liam's marriage.His wedding announcement had been too sudden, and even his parents didn't know who the bride was. With no useful information from Clive, she had to rely on herself.Suddenly, her phone rang.Sophia walked over, barefoot, and saw that it was Victor calling. She frowned in annoyance but picked up the call."Dad.""I heard from your mother that you're back in the country. Where are you? I want to see you!""I'm very busy with work right now, no time to meet. I'll contact
Although it was uncertain whether Liam had reconnected with Suzy, Sophia knew very well the influence Suzy had in Liam's heart.She actually hoped the person appearing by Liam's side wasn't Suzy, but someone else.Any other woman would be easier to deal with than Suzy! It wasn't that Suzy was particularly capable, but that Liam genuinely cared deeply for her.Sophia was certain that Liam would never put so much effort and time into another woman again, so as long as it wasn't Suzy, it would be fine.She glanced at her watch, realizing it was almost time for her to leave.Sophia changed into a well-tailored women's suit, which made her appear even more professional and imposing. Returning to Northorn City and back to the Park Group, she had to assert her authority and show everyone who the real winner was....In the meeting room of the Park Group, Liam was listening to the investment department manager report on the project's progress. Occasionally, he furrowed his thick eyebrows sligh
"Mr. Park...""You too."People without ability had no need to stay at Park Group.Liam strode directly to the elevator. When he reached the office floor, he saw his assistant trying to stop someone.From the back, he already knew who it was."Mr. Park."Seeing Liam, the assistant quickly bowed his head in greeting.Sophia turned around at the sound, her high heels clicking as she walked toward Liam. "What's going on here? Mr. Park Sr. asked me to come back and help Park Group, yet I don’t even have an office?""You need to go through HR to join Park Group. Once they approve, you will have a place." Liam continued walking toward his office without stopping.Sophia hurriedly said, "Liam, it was Mr. Park Sr. who asked me to come back and help you. You can call him to confirm.""I don’t have time."Sophia was speechless. She hadn’t expected that her return would be met with so many closed doors! Clive wouldn’t take her calls, and Liam outright refused to accept her.Seeing him about to en
