A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 364: Park Family Will Not Accept a Bastard Child
“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

Liam fell silent.Clive thought for a moment and then said, “Could this masterpiece be the work of your son?”“So, the child should be safe for now.”“Why is your focus different from everyone else’s?”Liam rubbed his forehead. “He’s still young. What if he’s been kidnapped? Shutting down the website is simple, but what if something happens to the child?”He never cared much about others’ opinions of him but didn’t want any harm to come to the child.Clive chuckled. “You’re already worried about your son?”“Let’s find him first and ensure he’s safe.” Liam hesitated before speaking, “I’m mainly concerned about Sophia. She knows about the child and might have sinister plans.”Clive was about to say he had considered that too but chose to remain silent.“She... wouldn’t do that, right?” Clive thought about how Sophia had cried, looking genuinely wronged.If she was lying, her acting was impeccable.“Without evidence, I’m not accusing anyone. I just suspect, and I hope she hasn’t done anyt

Jeffrey was stunned by this statement and took a while to regain his composure.“Arthur, please don’t cause any more trouble! Your mom is anxiously waiting for you. Let’s go back and see her first.”Hearing about his mom, Arthur’s face immediately fell.“I’m doing this to make her happy! He bullied my mom, and I want to get revenge for her.”“As long as you’re with your mom, she’ll be happy! Listen, you don’t understand yet. If you get caught, they might take you away from her.” Jeffrey now fully believed in Arthur’s capabilities, especially after seeing him hack Park Group’s website. However, he also knew that taking down the company wouldn’t be that simple.Arthur just lowered his head and fiddled with his fingers, growing more serious with each passing moment.“Park Group doesn’t have any tax evasion issues! Their finances are clean, so I can’t attack them there…”Jeffrey was astonished. “You can understand all that?”“I just skimmed through some information on the topic, so I’m no

“Let’s hope so.”But Suzy had a bad feeling.After this incident, Liam would undoubtedly investigate everything thoroughly. That was his nature.As they spoke, Jeffrey's car pulled up downstairs.“They’re here! They’re back!” Wendy shouted excitedly.Suzy didn’t even bother to change her slippers, rushing downstairs.The moment she saw Arthur’s face, her tears flowed uncontrollably.“Arthur… you nearly scared me to death, Arthur…”“Mommy, I’m sorry.” Arthur was visibly panicked seeing her cry. “It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have run off on my own!”“No, no… It’s my fault for not giving you enough love. It’s my fault!”She had been so focused on earning more money and following her plan for leaving the country and spending time with her kids that she hadn’t considered whether they could handle such an arrangement.Suzy felt a deep sense of guilt.Watching their embrace, Wendy couldn’t hold back her own tears.Jeffrey walked over and patted her shoulder. “Let’s go inside and talk.”“Okay.”

Suzy feared this the most.So, she insisted on covering all of Arthur's expenses abroad herself. Every month, she even paid Jeffrey a portion of his salary.If he didn't agree, she wouldn't let him take care of Arthur.But even so, she still felt she had ruined Jeffrey's future!"Jeff, you need to have your own life. You can't keep revolving around me."Wendy, who was listening nearby, sighed and walked over, "Suzy, just let him give. No one will think badly of you. We all know what he's like! Even his parents can't persuade him."Aveline fell silent."Yes, I feel fulfilled taking care of Arthur. It's a joy! If you don't let me be around him, I'll feel like I've lost my life's purpose," Jeffrey said, struggling to express himself.He knew long ago that Suzy wouldn't accept him.He had known this many years ago.But sometimes giving becomes a habit. Over the years, he had really gotten used to it! Treating Arthur as his own child.Jeffrey even thought that as long as Arthur was around,

A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 430: He’d Never Lied to Me
This statement could easily be misunderstood.Noticing the sudden defensiveness in Suzy's eyes, Liam softened his tone, abandoning his aggressive stance and returning to his usual gentlemanly warmth."It's just a dinner.""And then you'll let me see B7?""Yes."Suzy had no other options.She crossed the street to Jeffrey's car and tapped on the window.Before she could speak, Jeffrey anxiously said, "Suzy, I can't reach B7 anymore!""Liam took him.""...Then I'll go confront Liam!"Suzy quickly stopped him. "He's been acting strangely today. Don't provoke him! Confronting Liam head-on isn't wise. You should go home. I'll handle him.""You want me to leave you alone with Liam? He just—""Jeff, I'm so close to the truth! I can't afford any setbacks.""But if Liam finds out why you're meeting B7, he'll definitely intercept the evidence! Do you really think he'll choose you over his parents?"Of course not.Even Suzy understood that Liam would likely protect his parents.As their son, it w
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 429: You Won’t Want to Know the Truth
Suzy remembered the last time she heard him say those words was when Melissa insisted she bring a boyfriend to the hospital.His tone then was just like now—gentle, heartfelt, as if he wanted to drown her in his affection…Unfortunately, the first time, she didn't trust his love.And this second time… she couldn't believe he would turn against his own family."Liam, you won't want to know the truth.""I do." Liam gently cradled her face, his eyes firm and unwavering. "Suzy, tell me."He didn't want Suzy to push him away whenever something happened. He didn't want to be left to investigate everything on his own. He wanted to be her support, to hear her out, whether it was bitterness, grievances, or anger, and then face it together.Countless possibilities flashed through Suzy's mind, and finally, as if waking from a dream, she pushed Liam forcefully."The truth is, I hate you, and I hate everyone in your family. I want you to stay away from me! I've fallen in love with Jeffrey and—"Her

Suzy couldn’t bring herself to continue. After tasting the blood, she stopped biting and merely struggled, unable to bear hurting him again.It wasn't until Jeffrey came over and punched Liam on the shoulder that he finally stepped back from Suzy. Liam staggered a few steps, just barely managing to regain his balance as Jeffrey, consumed by anger, readied himself to strike again.Seeing this, Suzy quickly intervened to stop Jeffrey."Jeff, don't! Don't fight!"He halted his fist just in time, looking at Suzy.Her lips were visibly red and slightly bloody, showing how intense Liam's kiss had been.It was clear this was a deliberate display."Suzy, he bullied you!""No, he didn't! Jeff, go back to the car. I'll come to you in a moment!"Suzy couldn't let them actually start fighting because Jeffrey was no match for Liam.Whether in strength or background..."Suzy!"Jeffrey, feeling infuriated, looked up at Liam standing a short distance from Suzy.Liam wiped the blood from his lips with
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 427: Liam’s Aggressive Kiss
Previously, Liam hadn't continued investigating the death of Suzy's mother because he believed Suzy and Jeffrey were happily together. As an outsider, he thought intervening would only make Suzy resent him more.At that time, he truly wanted to let go of Suzy, start over, and completely say goodbye to the past.Based on these reasons, Liam didn't pursue the matter.But clearly, he was wrong—terribly wrong!He had taken 99 steps toward Suzy, only to halt just shy of the hundredth!...Unaware of all this, Suzy was busy organizing her materials, eagerly anticipating her meeting with Jeffrey to see B7 after work.Having finally managed to contact this elusive network hacker, she couldn't afford to miss the opportunity.Even if Liam canceled her entire month's salary, she had to go tonight.It had taken her four years of earning and saving money and seeking contacts to reach B7.She needed the restored surveillance footage to uncover the truth about her mother's death. She knew she had onl

Liam's voice carried a hint of helplessness, starkly contrasting his usual demeanor.Seeing him like this, Arthur felt a pang of discomfort. After some thought, he tentatively reached out and grasped a few of Liam's fingers.Liam's eyes shot up to meet his.What did this gesture mean?Arthur was acknowledging what Liam had just said!He was confirming Liam's suspicions.When Liam spoke again, his throat felt tight, and his voice trembled. "She... she's really your mother, isn't she?"Arthur instinctively wanted to play dumb, but he knew that his acting skills couldn't fool Liam. Moreover, the sadness and disappointment in Liam's eyes seemed genuine.After a few seconds of contemplation, Arthur decided to stop resisting. "You mustn't tell her I told you."Liam's entire body stiffened. Despite all his suspicions, hearing the truth confirmed left him shocked and speechless.Suzy... she had given him a child...No!Not just one!"You have a sister too, and she's my child as well?"Arthur

Liam furrowed his brows and turned to face her directly, their gazes locking."I am not lying to you."His eyes were so intense, so sincere as if they were trying to draw Suzy in completely!She began to regret bringing up this conversation with Liam, realizing she was now in a situation she couldn't easily escape.Suzy cleared her throat, feigning calmness, and averted her gaze. "Mr. Park, let's talk about work.""Alright, let's talk about work," Liam agreed readily. "You're working overtime today.""Liam—"Suzy was so angry she was grinding her teeth. "What exactly do you want? You said you hated me when we divorced. What, has the high and mighty Mr. Park decided to go back on his word and, after being dumped once, still intends to shamelessly pursue me?"Her words must have stung, as Liam's handsome face paled, and a hint of rationality returned to his eyes.He had been thrown off balance by Jeffrey's phone call.Hearing Suzy so affectionately tell Jeffrey to pick her up after work
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 424: Suzy, I’m Not Married
Seeing Arthur like this, Suzy knew she had to play along. "Mr. Park, I'll wait outside then. Let's not upset the child."She expected some reaction from Liam, but he merely nodded. "Alright."Suzy turned and left Easter Bay, feeling increasingly uneasy about Liam's attitude, though she couldn't pinpoint exactly why.If he brought her to see Arthur to test her, why hadn't he done anything suspicious? He had gone straight to the kitchen to cook upon arriving home!What hidden trap could she have missed?With a restless heart, Suzy waited in the car for a while before seeing Liam come out of the house carrying a paper bag.Once in the car, he handed the bag to Suzy."I packed this for you.""No need, skipping one meal won't hurt me. I'll eat after work."Liam glanced at her, his thin lips moving slightly. "You'll be working late tonight, I’ll triple your pay."Hearing about overtime, Suzy quickly protested, "I can't tonight, I have plans!"Jeffrey had finally helped her arrange a meeting
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 423: We’re Both Adults
"...I-I don't know what you're talking about!"Liam leaned down, his handsome face getting close to hers. "Then what do you mean by ‘leave bite marks’?"Suzy immediately averted her gaze, pretending to be calm. "Are you saying that you and your wife are in a sexless marriage? We're both adults; do I really need to spell it out?""Heh." Liam suddenly laughed. "You're blushing."Suzy was at a loss for words.She looked at the man in front of her as if she didn't recognize him anymore!When did Liam become so shameless?"Since you're already out of the car, come in and have something to eat."After saying that, Liam didn't give her a chance to refuse and walked away.Suzy stood there for a few seconds, took a deep breath, and then followed him.She could only hope that Arthur wouldn’t give anything away when he saw her......As soon as the door opened, she saw Arthur lounging on the sofa, playing with his computer.He knew his "lunch" had arrived as soon as he heard the noise! Slipping o
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 422: Liam Eavesdropped on Suzy
She realized Liam had a calculated plan for bringing her back to Park Group. On day one, he was already rushing to take her to see Arthur to test her!Recognizing this, Suzy reminded herself to be cautious around this man; who knew where the traps might be?She hoped that when she saw Arthur, she wouldn't give anything away!And... she also wanted to see her son, at least to know how he was doing!"You don't seem surprised that I have a son," Liam suddenly said.Suzy quickly snapped back to reality, shrugged, and acted indifferent. "Should I be surprised? We've been divorced for over four years. You're a normal man. Getting remarried and having children is normal, right?""I announced my marriage this year.""Oh, congratulations!"She had no desire to continue this conversation.Nor did she want to discuss Liam's new wife! That would remind her of the bite marks on his shoulder!"I thought you might be curious."Suzy forced a professional smile. "Mr. Park, we're here for work! This isn
