Liam Danvers, was always looked down on and treated badly by his in-laws and everyone around him, including his wife, all because he was broke. Everyone treated him like trash, like he didn't have emotions, and sometimes his in-laws would beat him up. One day Liam's in-laws beat him up and left him for dead on the streets. Just when Liam thought everything was lost, and he was going to die, a couple introduced themselves as his parents.
View MoreFor the first time since this whole mess began, Liam felt a glimmer of hope that his name could be cleared. He had to thank his dad for hiring the investigator, who had managed to dig up information on Selena that he never would have found on his own.After discussing the case further with Sonia, Liam leaned back breathing a sigh of relief. They had gone through every possible angle, her financial inconsistencies, the questionable lawyer backing her, and the gaps in her story that could cast doubt on her accusations against Liam. Sonia’s confidence in building a defense around these findings gave him a glimmer of hope, but he knew it would be a tough fight to clear his name.As they wrapped up, Sonia gathered her notes and looked at him with a calm and assuring gaze. “Mr Danvers, this will be tough, but it’s not impossible. We’ll keep digging, but you’ll need to be prepared. Public opinion will swing back and forth, and it may get worse before it gets better."Liam nodded, his expres
For example, according to the info on the file, Selena had always presented herself as coming from an affluent background, often speaking about her privileged upbringing in a wealthy neighborhood. But the records in the file told a different story, she had spent most of her childhood in a much more modest part of the city. So she seemed to be lying.Then there were inconsistencies in her employment history; she claimed to have worked for several prestigious firms, yet no verifiable records could back that up. The investigator had dug deep, and nothing seemed to align with her claims.But the most alarming discovery to Liam was the recent and unexplained influx of large sums of money into her bank account, transfers that had started only a few days ago, coming from unknown sources. Liam couldn't help wondering if there was a chance that Selena wasn’t doing this on her own and someone was just paying her to frame him. It was unlikely however it wasn’t impossible either.After all, in th
Liam arrived at the place his dad had asked him to meet. It was a high-end restaurant, the kind of spot where only the rich would go since it was expensive. More importantly at this place privacy was a top priority so that's why Alvin chose it, knowing the type of conversation he was going to have with Liam.The polished marble floors of the place and hushed conversations made it clear that discretion was the norm. Liam parked his car and stepped out, adjusting his jacket as he scanned the entrance for any sign of his father.It didn’t take long before he eventually spotted his dad. Alvin was already seated at a private booth near the back, with a calm demeanor. He waved Liam over, offering a small nod as Liam approached.As Liam got closer to his dad's booth, he noticed that someone else was seated next to his dad. The man was casually dressed in a white simple polo shirt and white trousers. His laid-back appearance differed a lot with the upscale environment.He looked young, proba
Walking into his office, Liam dropped his jacket on the chair and sat down. Letting out a heavy sigh, his eyes landed on the file he had been handed by Selena and her lawyer. The pressure of what had just happened pressed heavily on him. He opened the file, his brow furrowing as he scanned the pages carefully. The accusations were clearly stated on the file, laid out in bold, black ink, demanding his attention.Assault.Liam’s eyes darkened as he read the charges in detail. It wasn’t just a vague accusation; it claimed he had violently assaulted Selena. The document outlined not only the sexual assault but also asserted that he had physically beaten her, making the charges even more shocking and damaging.Liam’s eyes widened in shock as he read the new accusation. What? This wasn’t what Selena had claimed at first. Initially, she had accused him of attempting to assault her. But now, she was claiming he had actually done it? Obviously all of her accusations were lies. The shameless
The fact that Selena arrived with a lawyer was enough for Liam to grasp the seriousness of the situation. She had likely filed a lawsuit against him for assault, a thought that fueled his anger. The nerve she had to do this, despite the truth being the complete opposite, was infuriating. However, Liam knew he couldn’t act on his emotions; he had to maintain control.Selena darted her gaze toward the lawyer seated next to her, silently instructing him with a mere flick of her eyes.The lawyer stood up from the bench his movements were precise and deliberate. He adjusted his tie as he cleared his throat, an audible signal that he was about to speak. He then stretched out his arm to shake Liam's hand and introduced himself, “Mr. Danvers, I’m Lawyer Gibson, representing Ms. Selena.” His voice was calm and professional, yet it was laced with a hint of condescension, as if he enjoyed being in the position of power. Liam's gaze remained fixed on Selena, a silent challenge hanging in the ai
The main reason was that, she knew exactly who Selena was. She had almost believed the stories about Liam on the news the first time she had heard. However the moment she saw that the person who Liam had allegedly attempted to assault was Selena, she immediately was skeptical to believe the stories.Knowing who Selena was, she knew that Selena was a notorious social climber with a reputation for manipulation. Aretha had crossed paths with Selena before and knew of her schemes, especially when it came to wealthy men like Liam. Seeing Selena as the accuser had immediately set off red flags in Aretha’s mind, making her skeptical of the entire story from the start.Aretha gave Liam a reassuring nod. "No need to thank me. I know exactly who she is. You wouldn’t believe it, but Selena and I used to be friends. We went to college together. I know her well enough to realize you’ve been framed."Liam blinked, clearly taken aback by the revelation. Never would he had thought that Aretha would k
Taken off guard by Ethan's question, Liam froze for a second. His expression hardened slightly, but he kept his composure. He understood Ethan’s concerns and didn’t want to escalate the situation.This was just one of the consequences of having his name dragged through the mud. Now everyone was going to be looking at him differently. The thought made Liam even more determined to fix everything, though for now, he had no idea how. There was no concrete proof to show that Selena was lying."I get it," Liam said, keeping his voice calm. "You’ve seen the headlines, and you have every reason to be cautious. But I’m not here with any bad intentions toward your family. Whatever the news is saying, it’s not the truth."He paused, meeting Ethan’s gaze directly. "I'm just here to check on Mr. Carrington. That’s all. I have no interest in causing trouble for your family." He meant it. He genuinely wanted to help them navigate through their problems, especially since they were dealing with Alexan
The comparison of Liam and Jeremy was calculated, meant to remind Karen that Liam could never measure up to someone like Jeremy, especially now that Liam had been exposed for what he was. Karen having had enough, walked out on them, and she didn't turn back even after her mom called for her to come back. Meanwhile, Liam arrived at the clinic.When Liam entered inside the clinic, the soft hum of monitors and the sterile scent of antiseptic filled the air. He made his way through the halls, stopping briefly at the door of Mr. Carrington's room. Rachel was already inside, sitting beside the bed, her soft gaze fixed on the old man who was still asleep. Liam opened the door slightly and stepped inside, careful not to disturb the stillness of the room. He didn’t announce his presence immediately, instead taking a moment to observe Rachel. She seemed lost in thought, probably feeling worried for the old man. The moment she noticed him, her lips curved into a gentle smile. She had a beau
Despite being rejected by Karen numerous times, Jeremy had always convinced himself that she was just playing hard to get, and he continued to pursue her relentlessly.Karen was sick of it to her stomach. She had grown tired of his persistence, the way he was, smug and confident that one day she’d change her mind. But she didn’t know how to make him leave her alone, not when her family was encouraging him to pursue her at every turn, eager to push her into a relationship with him. It seemed that her mother, in particular, had made it her mission to see Karen married off to someone like Jeremy, all because he came from a wealthy family.And that was something Karen could never understand. Why did her mother want her to marry into wealth so badly when their family was already more than rich enough? They had far more than Jeremy’s family ever could, yet her mother seemed blind to that fact, obsessed with the idea of securing Karen’s future through status and wealth something Karen didn’t
