"You want him dead?!"The person on the other end was clearly shocked."Yes," Sophia replied without pretense, "I need to eliminate any potential threats in the cradle."She thought about it: if the child were left alive, he would eventually find Liam. The only solution was to make him disappear from this world entirely."You claimed he's not Liam's son, yet you say he's a threat!" The man quickly caught on. "You're deliberately trying to make me an enemy of the Park family!""You won't offend the Park family. Whether the child is Liam's or not, he won't be accepted by them. I'll ensure nothing happens to you, isn't that enough?""No way, I can't take this job. Find someone else!" The man refused decisively.Sophia furrowed her brows. "I can pay more.""It's not about the money! I can't harm such a small child."And if the child was indeed Liam's, it would be like dancing on the edge of a cliff—nothing good would come of it."How many lives have you taken? Don't act all virtuous now,"
Liam could only trust Alec to handle this matter.After giving his instructions, Alec was about to hang up when Liam suddenly added, "Focus the investigation on Sophia.""Miss Burns? But Mr. Park, Clive said she was with him at the time.""She may not have gone herself, but that doesn't mean she didn't send someone else."Liam found Clive's account of Sophia peculiar. First, when did she move to live so far away from the city?Despite knowing her for years and her having no history of heart problems, she suddenly fell ill at such a critical moment. After being admitted to the hospital, her health turned out to be perfectly fine.It was highly suspicious."Understood, Mr. Park. I'll start tracking her movements right away.""Be discreet. I’m worried she might do something to the child.""Got it."Setting down his phone, Liam glanced out the car window. The hospital was just ahead, and his emotions were a mix of anxiety and hope.He was scared.Scared that the results wouldn't be what h
At least, if he hadn’t left his sight, no one could have taken him away.Now, Clive was really worried that Arthur hadn’t been taken by family but by someone else with other motives.Wait—Someone with other motives.A possibility suddenly struck Clive.Sophia!Who would least want Liam to have a child? Who would least want Liam to meet that child? Who had been the most active in contacting him before the incident?It was all her!Clive immediately dialed her number, but Sophia didn’t answer. She just declined the call.However, each time she declined, Clive redialed until she finally answered, her tone filled with irritation.“I’m waiting for an important call! Can’t this wait?”“You always do this when you call me,” Clive snapped, losing all patience. “Sophia, let me ask you, did you take the child?”Sophia laughed upon hearing this.“What nonsense are you talking about? I was with you the whole time. How could I have taken the child, with a clone?”“You probably had someone else do
Clive laughed mockingly.“Ruin you? You've become so ruthless that I hardly recognize you! The Sophia I knew was gentle, sensible, graceful, willing to go to great lengths for the Park Group, and fiercely defended the company’s interests in court! Look at you now, you're a completely different person.”“If it weren't for Suzy, if she hadn't taken Liam, I—”“If she hadn't, would Liam have fallen in love with you? Don't be ridiculous! I don’t have time for this. Since you won’t admit it, I’m going to see Liam.”As he was about to hang up, Sophia suddenly said, “You can’t go! Clive, if you do this, I will never forgive you!”Clive frowned, sensing he was getting closer to the truth. “What are you so afraid of?”“If you go to Liam with this, it will only make his impression of me worse! You can investigate me; I don’t mind. But don’t let Liam do it.” She knew that if Liam got involved, things would become much more complicated.She had planned to quietly handle the child without anyone kno
“Alright, alright! I'll do it right away!”The director didn't dare say anything else and quickly called his subordinates to retrieve the records.At this point, privacy was not a concern. Angering Liam could mean the end of the hospital.Liam sat silently in a chair, the air around him thick with tension. No one dared to even breathe heavily.The silence was broken by the ringing of a phone.It was Liam's mother calling.He had already declined her call once, but she called again.The second time, he answered.“Mom.”“You still remember I'm your mother? Why did you hang up on me?” Grace began with accusations. “Are you trying to disown me now?”Liam frowned, already guessing what this was about.The only person who would bring his mother into this now was Sophia.“Do you need something? I'm busy.”“Busy with what? Looking for some illegitimate child who may not even be yours?”“Yes.” Liam saw no need to hide anything. “Since the child looks like me, there's a possibility he's mine. I
Liam couldn't respond to that. It was clear she didn't want to tell him anything."Besides, what’s wrong with Sophia? Tell me! In terms of looks, talent, and ability, what’s lacking?""Character.""And you think Suzy has good character? She agreed to marry you just for the money! A woman who would sell her marriage for money—you call that good character?" Grace wasn’t one to be taken lightly. She had investigated thoroughly and knew Suzy agreed to marry Liam to pay for her mother's medical treatment.In the end, it was all about money!"I believe in her character, and that's enough. No one else needs to judge her.""You—""Mom, I won’t marry Sophia."Even though he had told his mother countless times before, he didn’t mind repeating it once more."Then you might as well disown me as your mother!"Grace angrily hung up the phone. Liam frowned deeply, feeling a pang of guilt.He realized that upsetting her like this could lead to sleepless nights, hospital visits, and even jeopardize h
Sophia had planned everything meticulously, but she never anticipated the child would manage to escape!"Then hurry up and catch him! Let me tell you, if this gets exposed, we’re both finished! Liam won't spare us!""I’ve already sent my people to search for him, but there’s no news yet. I'll inform you as soon as we find him.""Not if, you have to find him! Don’t force me to take action against you."Sophia couldn’t bear to think about what would happen if Liam found out she tried to kill the child.Her entire carefully crafted persona would be ruined!Not only that, if this man was caught, all their previous deeds would be uncovered...No, she couldn’t let that happen.If necessary, she would make sure this man and their secrets disappeared from the world together....Five hundred meters from the secret warehouse, Arthur was looking at the moving figures on his phone.He then calmly changed the entrance code to spell out "Idiot" and deleted all the system's data.How dare they try t
When Arthur went to Park Group to find Liam, he noticed that the security office had a computer logged into the company's software.Although it was a low version and didn’t allow direct communication with the executives, it didn’t stop him from planting a virus.Jeffrey was embarrassed. “Do you really think Park Group’s network is that easy to breach? Even though you're savvy with computers, Park Group employs top experts from around the world. Their security would have caught you immediately.”But Arthur waved his phone in front of Jeffrey. “Look, I can already control their executives' accounts! Let me prove it by sending out an announcement!”He thought for a moment, typed a message into the software, and sent it.“Mr. Jeff, check it out.”Although skeptical, Jeffrey pulled over to the side of the road and opened his phone to check Park Group’s website.The headline banner read: "Liam Park is a big bastard, and a little dog! Nya nya nya."...“Is this all the medical records?” Liam
