Both Liam and Lana didn't know how to answer Emily's question. They didn't know what their relationship was at that moment so they didn't know what to say.

Liam looked at Lana for a moment, before shifting his gaze to Emily and replying. "We are friends." He sounded slightly hesitant, it was like he wasn't sure if they were friends or not.

Of course he wasn't sure, the two of them weren't exactly friends. Friends didn't do the things they did a few hours ago, when Lana came to his house. The two of them kissed, and that meant something to Liam.

Lana had hesitated to reply, as she wanted Liam to be the one who replied to Emily, and just as she wanted, Liam was the one who answered Emily, it was just that she was disappointed with his answer.

Emily nodded with a soft smile. "Okay." She knew something was up between Liam and Lana, seeing as they were hesitant to reply to her question, but she didn't want to ask about that. At that same time, Emily felt someone put a hand on her shoulder

    'And now I'm regretting coming here.' Liam thought to himself, but he didn't want to leave, because he wanted to make Scott and the others believe that he and Lana were dating so that Scott or Phil would stop bothering her.Lana had been quiet for quite some time, but after Scott told Liam to leave she decided to say something. "No, this is my house, so how about you and Phil leave?" Lana asked, reaching for Liam's hand and holding it, and then she looked at her brother with a serious expression. "Liam is my boyfriend and he is not leaving. And for your information, he is not what you think he is. He is the CEO of multiversal studios.

He knew he was in Lana's house and her bed.As the memories about the previous night came back, Liam blushed, as he darted his eyes towards the other side of the bed and saw her sleeping beside him, a faint smile formed on his face as he remembered everything that happened between him and Lana the previous night. He was slightly drunk then, but he could still remember almost everything that happened the previous night. He had gotten intimate with someone for the first time, and he was happy about it.

    Liam felt nervous, seeing everyone's eyes on him, he didn't want to disappoint them with his answer."I'm not interested… in marriage right now," Liam replied hesitantly, glancing at Karen. He didn't want to break her heart, but it was the truth, he couldn't get married to her when he didn't love her.Karen frowned, hearing Liam's answer. She was angry and disappointed in Liam after hearing his answer. Well, she couldn't say that she didn't expect that from him."Me too, I'm not interested in him," Karen replied bluntly as she looked at her mom forcing out a smile. "I think it's best if we don't get married." She added, looking at Liam with a smile. She was faking a smile, to make it look as if she wasn't hurt.Liam nodded and smiled back at her.

    In the office, Mr Clark and the governor sat across from each other as they talked about some things regarding how they would take control of the Danvers empire."So , what is the other plan?" The governor asked reluctantly, not knowing if Mr Clark trusted him enough to even tell him the plan or not.And he was right in thinking that Mr Clark had no intention of telling him about his plan, as he didn't trust anyone with the plan. He didn't even trust his right hand man.Mr Clark leaned back on his seat, making eye contact with the governor as he said. "What do you think of Simon?" He asked, changing the topic completely. The governor took some time to think before he replied, "I think he is alright, could be useful?" He said after a few seconds of silence. Mr Clark smirked and nodded slightly. "Perhaps he is useful… as long as he knows who's boss, then I shall let him keep running my underworld business, while I remain in disguise." He said, reaching for the cup of coffee on the des

    Lana laid back against the sofa and sighed audibly. "Honestly, I don't know, and I don't care." She said confidently. Erin had her shot with him, but she blew it."You should care, cause I know her better, and what she is capable of." Kimberly said. Attempting to make Lana think getting into a relationship with Liam was a bad idea. After all she would love it if Lana and Liam would break up already, that would give her a chance with Liam.Lana frowned, just thinking about dealing with Erins craziness made her sick to her stomach, or rather made her worried about her reputation getting ruined, because Erin loved ruining people's reputations."Well, she doesn't care about Liam, and they're divorced, so I don't care about her reaction." Lana replied confidently.Kimberly laughed lightly, looking at Lana with a faint smile. "You know, I never knew you liked him, like that." Kimberly asked in a calm and friendly tone."Well, I did." Lana replied.At that moment a young pretty woman wearing

And he got to find out some things about Mr. Clark, which after learning about him, it made Liam suspect him of having I'll intentions toward him or the Denver family.Like the fact that Mr. Clark's business empire had a feud with the Danvers consortium in the past, while that was normal for companies to have disputes, what raised his eyebrow and made him suspicious was the fact that Mr. Clark was so mysterious, that it was unclear how Mr. Clark made so much money when his companies couldn't generate such income.

    The next day.“Mr. Danvers, you're pushing yourself too hard," a gentle voice interrupted his thoughts. Liam blinked, turning to see a nurse regarding him with concern. "You need rest too, you know. Ms. Bennett is in good hands," she added kindly, her tone soft yet firm.Liam’s gaze shifted briefly to the nurse before returning to Elena's sleeping face. Her fragile state was a reminder of how dangerous the situation was. “I’m alright, thank you,” he replied, his voice calm but carrying a hint of finality. He offered a faint, polite smile, enough to ease the nurse’s concern without inviting further conversation.Liam leaned back slightly in his chair, his hands gripping the armrests. He also wanted to go home and get some rest. However he couldn't bring himself to leave Elena’s side. What if something goes wrong while he is away? He had to make sure she was alright, and Nathan didn't try anything.Nathan wasn’t done, not by a long shot. Even with the security stationed outside the hos

    Liam watched Nathan, his jaw tightening as he watched his act unfold. The ease with which Nathan faked concern infuriated him. It wasn’t just the deception, it was the calculated way Nathan played on Elena’s trust. Liam’s instinct was to confront him and expose him immediately, to reveal the truth, but he knew better. Accusing her brother without evidence would only backfire; Elena would never believe him. They were enemies, so she would only see it as him trying to drive a wedge between her and her brother out of spite. No matter how genuine Liam’s intentions were, Elena’s trust in Nathan and her disdain for the Danvers family, would cloud her judgment. If Liam confronted her now, it would only deepen her mistrust and strengthen Nathan’s position.He needed proof; something undeniable that would shatter the illusion Nathan so carefully maintained. Until then, Liam could do nothing but wait and watch, even as the charade continued before his eyes.Good to see you're awake, Ms. Bennet

    Liam's head snapped toward Elena, as she stirred on the hospital bed, her eyelids fluttering as if she were struggling to open them fully. The faint rise and fall of her chest confirmed she was alive, but she looked weak and disoriented.“Elena?” Liam’s voice softened as he released Nathan abruptly, letting him drop to the floor. Nathan gasped for air, clutching his throat while glaring at Liam.Liam ignored him entirely, rushing to Elena’s bed side. He placed a hand on the bed's railing, leaning closer to get a better look at her face. “Elena, can you hear me?”Elena blinked slowly, her lips parting as she tried to speak, but her voice came out as a strained whisper. “L-Liam?”She sounded surprised, not only by Liam's presence, but because she found herself laying on a hospital bed. "What, happened?"“Yes, it’s me,” Liam said, his tone laced with relief. His gaze flicked briefly toward Nathan, who was still recovering on the floor but making no move toward Elena now. Returning his at

    "Doctor, can I see her?" Nathan asked, his voice a carefully faked blend of concern and anxiety. He leaned forward slightly, as if eager to rush to Elena's side, but his eyes held a calculating glint, that showed his true feelings.He had no care for Elena, the only reason he wanted to see her was to make sure she wouldn't wake up. He was disappointed when he heard that she survived the car crash, even more disappointed when he tried to do it himself and he was almost caught.Dr. Grant, looking observant, paused for a moment, studying Nathan's face. He had seen countless worried family members in his years of practice and being a doctor, and something about Nathan's demeanor felt off. Even the way Nathan spoke and carried himself, it was all pretend. However, he couldn't deny a brother's request to see his sister, after all, he was just a doctor here and nothing else."Of course," Dr. Grant replied, stepping aside. "But she's still unconscious. I wouldn't expect ....""I understand,

    Nathan was just as nervous, if not more than brad. "Hold on," he said, reaching for his phone, panic creeping into his voice. "Let me try and call for help."His fingers moved quickly, dialing a number with speed. The phone rang only once before someone answered."Hi, Mr Simpson, it's Nathan," he said, his voice tight with growing anxiety. As he began to realize what a dangerous situation he was in, panic began to set in. "I’m being chased. Need backup, now."After a brief exchange on the other end with Mr Simpson, Nathan hung up and leaned back in his seat, his eyes locked on the rearview mirror, watching the Danvers security vehicles closing in fast. Brad glanced at him nervously. "Are they going to be able to help? We’re running out of time."Nathan didn’t answer immediately, his eyes narrowing as he focused on the road ahead. "Yes. Just give them a few minutes. Simpson's men are close by."Some time later, they were still being pursued by Danvers security, unable to shake them. B

    Liam stood frozen in the doorway, his breath caught in his throat as his gaze darted from the panick stricken doctors to Elena. She was lying on the bed, looking still and lifeless.The beeping of the heart monitor echoed in his ears, sharp and irregular. He had been gone for only a few minutes, but it felt like a lifetime. Something was terribly wrong already. What happened when he was gone? He didn't know, but he was very worried for Elena and his baby."Is she going to be okay?" Liam asked, his voice was barely above a whisper as he asked the doctors. His eyes searched their faces for an answer, but no one seemed willing to give. They were too focused on Elena.Doctor Grant, focused and calm despite the chaos, didn't look up as he adjusted the machines. "We're doing everything we can, Mr Danvers. I suggest you go outside sir."Liam's stomach twisted with anxiety. He felt like he shouldn't leave Elena and the baby’s side, but he knew the doctors needed space to work. Reluctantly, h

    At the same time, Irene and Alvin Danvers arrived outside the hospital room, accompanied by Doctor Grant.The doctor Grant was telling them about Elena's health and the risks she could face on her way to recovery. He spoke calmly, his tone professional yet reassuring. “So far, there have been no complications. She should recover well.”Alvin Danvers voice was composed as usual, but laced with concern as he enquired“And the pregnancy? Is the baby going to be okay?”“Yes, we believe so,” Doctor Grant replied, nodding his head. “But even with all indications being positive, we can’t be completely sure there won’t be complications. It’s something we’ll need to monitor closely.”"That's such a relief, that she is better," Irene Danvers sighed, her tension slightly easing. As much as she and the Danvers family didn't like Elena, they were worried about her, because she was carrying, potentially the future heir to the Danvers empire. Irenes brows furrowed again as she asked, “What other ris

    Slipping into the room, Nathan’s eyes were fixed on Elena with a cold, predatory intensity. Not even seeing her in the state that she was in, made him feel bad for her. It was a testament of how much hatred he had built up for her, ever since the betrayal.The door clicked shut softly behind him. As he approached the bed, his footsteps were slow and deliberate. His gaze roamed over her pale face. He stood by the bed, glaring down at her unconscious body. At first, his facial expression was casual, as if he were merely observing something boring. But then, suddenly, his demeanor shifted. His eyes softened, and his brow furrowed in an almost sorrowful way. The rapid change in his emotions was unusual and unsettling. It was as though two opposing emotions: cold detachment and remorse battled within him, each fighting for dominance. Well, Elena was someone whom he used to consider family, and loved so of course he was going to be feeling bad and guilty, but at the same time he hated h

    Liam turned to look at Nathan. Their expressions were unreadable as the two men stared at each other. From the hostility in each other's eyes, it was clear they were enemies.Liam turned back around with a sigh. Although he disliked Nathan’s presence intensely, he decided to tolerate it for now. There were more pressing matters at hand than their mutual disdain.Nathan stepped further into the room, closing the door quietly behind him. His gaze lingered on Elena. And a storm of frustration was boiling beneath his calm facade. ‘How the fuck is she still alive?’ he thought bitterly. ‘Those bastards. Useless idiots. I should have done this myself instead of hiring some incompetent fools.’ The sight of Elena still breathing, although shallowly, was infuriating Nathan. All his carefully planned plans, the money he had spent, the risks taken now felt like it was a waste.But the wasted money was the least of Nathan's concerns right now.He feared that if Elena woke up, there was a very rea
