A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 377: He Just Wanted to Take Suzy Back
He missed Suzy so much.Thinking of every moment they shared in this house.These words, if not for the influence of alcohol, he probably would never have said aloud.He had to admit, in this battle with Suzy, he lost completely, utterly defeated, unable to rise again.Alec, listening to these words, could sense Liam's complex emotions.The sense of loss, the helplessness, it was truly heartbreaking!"Mr. Park, try not to think about it.""Yeah, I won't think about it." Liam nodded obediently, a bitter smile on his lips. "I won't think about it."Alec sighed. "Let's go back inside and rest. You've had too much to drink, and you have work tomorrow.""Yeah.""What's the code for the door? I'll unlock it for you, and you can change it tomorrow."Seeing Liam's current state, Alec doubted he could manage the code himself.Liam's tall figure swayed slightly. "The code is... the initials of me and Suzy, plus the day we first sat next to each other—August 25th, 0825."Alec didn't know whether

Suzy instinctively looked in the direction Jeffrey mentioned.Sure enough, Jeffrey stood not far away, holding his phone and smiling at her."Over here!"Seeing Jeffrey's figure, Suzy felt a mix of emotions she couldn't quite describe.To say she wasn't touched would be a lie, but this kind of feeling was more like that between family members, unrelated to romantic love.Many times, Suzy wondered if she had met Jeffrey first, through Wendy's introduction, she might have wholeheartedly built a life with him.But all of this was based on the premise that Liam never appeared.Suzy stood up and slowly walked toward him. "Jeff, why didn't you leave?""I couldn't rest easy with you alone in Northorn. So, I had a friend drive Wendy and the kids back first. Don't worry, my friend is an old classmate I've known for years. There won't be any problems, and he won't betray us."Suzy wasn't really worried about that, but still..."You've been waiting here all this time?""I stayed to keep you compa

Moreover, unlike other suitors who made grand gestures to attract attention, often leaving her feeling embarrassed and speechless, he prioritized her feelings and acted accordingly.His love was gentle and pervasive, influencing everything quietly and profoundly.Suzy thought that many girls might never experience such pure love in their entire lives.And she, someone who had lived through so much hardship, had once possessed it completely.Standing outside Easter Bay once again, Suzy looked up at the lit living room.He must be working, right?At this hour, as the CEO, he likely had many international meetings to attend.Many people saw Liam as god’s favored child, born into privilege. But those who knew him understood the immense effort he put into everything.He wanted to handle every aspect of the company personally, never shirking his responsibilities just because he was the CEO.This dedication was a key reason for the Park Group's strong standing in the business world. It wasn't

Alec just stared at her, seemingly trying to gauge the truth in her words.But…The fact that she came here today showed that she still had feelings for Liam.And from their previous interactions, Alec believed she wasn’t a heartless person."Are you saying that Mr. Park's mother has...""Alec, without evidence, I can’t say anything more, and you don’t need to ask! Once I leave Northorn City tomorrow morning, I’ll be leaving the country and won’t return. You don’t have to worry about me bothering him again. Whether you believe it or not, I genuinely hope he finds happiness."Given how seriously Liam treated love, he deserved a complete and fulfilling relationship. He deserved happiness.With that, Suzy turned to leave.Alec watched her retreating figure, then suddenly called out."Miss Chase!"Suzy paused and turned around. "What is it?"Alec quickly walked over to her. "Mr. Park got drunk today. I’ve been taking care of him.""He was drinking?""Yes, I’ve never seen him this drunk bef

Seeing those bite marks, Suzy felt jealousy and envy for the first time in her life.As someone who had experienced love, she knew exactly what they signified.And it must have been intense.Suzy felt as if her heart had been ripped open, with wind howling through the wound, leaving her unsure how to react.As her rationality gradually returned, she pulled her hand back as if shocked and quickly moved away from Liam's bed.How could she have forgotten...He was a married man now! It was natural for him to sleep with his wife.Even if he hadn't let go of her, could she cross that boundary?What was she doing now? Breaking into someone else's home and touching their husband!Suzy turned to leave hurriedly, but suddenly heard Liam move and murmur softly."Suzy..."He was calling her name.But she couldn't stay any longer. She rushed out of the bedroom and fled from Easter Bay.On her way back to the hotel, she couldn't stop thinking about the bite marks on Liam's shoulder.It felt like so

Seeing that Suzy still wasn't speaking, Jeffrey used his last trick."Sigh, I still have stomach problems! The doctor said I shouldn't starve."After hearing that, what else could Suzy do?Even though she knew these were just excuses, Jeffrey just wanted her to get out and not stay cooped up in the room alone."Thank you, Jeff.""I should be the one thanking you for keeping me company for dinner. Let's go."…The night outside was still and quiet.The room, which had its lights turned off, suddenly lit up!Angela, who was still sleeping, was startled. She groggily opened her eyes and saw her brother sitting at the desk doing something.She stretched and walked over in her slippers. "Brother... what are you doing?"Arthur glanced at her and slapped his forehead. "I forgot you were in this room! I'm sending data to my mentor."He then showed her what he was working on.But how could she understand? To her, it was just a bunch of jumbled data."Who is your mentor, brother?""My mentor is

Before he got to see his dad, he got kidnapped!Arthur was not someone to mess with."Ding—"A message popped up on the phone."Did you go after your dad?" B7 asked.Arthur pouted and replied, "Mm-hmm! Teacher, you'll help me, right?""You sure know how to stir up trouble, landing me such a huge job with the Park Group! If it weren't for your begging, I wouldn't even consider this for less than ten million dollars.""Well, I'm your last apprentice!"Arthur even added a tongue-out emoji at the end.As a result, B7 directly blacked out the chat box.Arthur knew that this meant his mentor had agreed. He was always elusive, but whenever Arthur needed help, he was never stingy.…With Jeffrey around, Suzy finally dared to let herself get drunk.Since he was worried that no one would take care of her, Jeffrey didn't drink much; it was all her drinking.The difference this time was that he didn't stop her.How often could one get drunk in life?During such painful times, it was better to drin

Suzy was startled, sobering up quite a bit.She had been so caught up in her sadness that she forgot she was in Northorn City, where she could run into people who knew her."I came here for some business. I'm leaving tomorrow.”Ryan's voice grew louder. "I'm not asking when you're leaving. Who was the man you went into the hotel with?"His tone now was as if he had caught a cheating wife.Suzy furrowed her delicate brows. She didn't need to explain herself to him, but she didn't have the time to argue either, so she said, "I drank too much. A friend's cousin was just helping me back to the hotel.""Really?""Why would I lie to you? You're my boss, and I'm on vacation."Ryan was at a loss for words. "I'm just concerned about you! Don't trouble your friend's cousin. I have a friend in Northorn City. I'll ask her to look after you. She's a woman, so it'll be more convenient.""No need."Her blunt refusal made Ryan feel humiliated.But Suzy was in no mood to care about that now."Suzy, I'm

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
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 426: Don’t Sell Me Out
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
