Liam sat on his bed, listening to the heated argument between Mr. Simpson and Don Salvatore, followed by Salvatore ending their partnership. He felt a sense of happiness wash over him. It was an unexpected turn of events, but it played in his favor. Now, he saw a chance to deal with Don Salvatore without the support of Mr. Simpson. It made his task of confronting Salvatore on his own terms much more achievable.Removing the headphone from his head, Liam rose from the bed, letting out a sigh. He then darted his gaze towards the dresser, where the mysterious and ancient book was. Walking over to the dresser he picked up the book, and walked back to the bed and sat down. He flipped it open, and began reading the first page. He was still surprised by the fact that, not long ago, he couldn't understand what was written on the book, it was all foreign language to him, however now that he was wearing the ring, it had become possible for him to understand what the book said.As Liam delved d
As Liam and Karen made their way down the illustrious red carpet, their presence stirred a flurry of attention, drawing the gaze of not only the other attendees but also the keen red carpet interviewers. It was expected that they would both attract so much attention, seeing as they were dressed impeccably. Karen was looking stunning, dressed in an expensive long, flowing gown. And Liam was dressed in a red suit that made him look even more attractive than he already was.As they walked together, they looked like a couple, and people were curious. Being the CEO of multiversal studios, almost everyone inside the lobby knew who Liam was, some overly curious people had even done background checks on him, and had found out that he was single, so it was surprising to them to see him with a woman, walking hand in hand.With their microphones and cameras in hands, the interviewers skillfully navigated the glitzy crowd to reach Liam and Karen.One of the reporters called out, "Mr Danvers, over
During the interviews, one of the interviewers then shifted his gaze towards Liam and put a mic to his mouth as he asked, "Mr Danvers. You're the CEO of the production company Erin is signed to, how is it managing a big talent like her?" Liam was caught off guard by the question, he didn't expect such a question to be thrown at him. How was he supposed to respond to that? It was no secret that Liam disliked Erin, because he held a grudge against her for the abusive marriage she had put him into. And honestly, even though Erin was a big part of multiversal studios, Liam would have much rather she wasn't, the only reason her contract wasn't terminated yet was because he didn't want to have to pay her a lot of money and also, if she were to leave multiversal studios the company might lose a lot of fans."Um… it's an honour." Liam replied in a somewhat casual tone.Erin forced a faint smile but couldn't help feeling disrespected by Liam's insincere response. She had a keen sense for sin
Liam could not hide his surprise after seeing Sheila. Shifting his gaze, he turned from Karen to find Sheila sitting beside him. A frown appearing onhis face as he asked, "What are you doing here?"Sheila had a sly smirk on her face, as she leaned in closer, her voice low in a hushed whisper, "Hi, don't look so shocked. I couldn't resist attending such a grand event, especially when you're in attendance. We have unfinished business, you and I." Knowing exactly what she was talking about, Liam frowned slightly as he leaned in closer to match her hushed tone, his eyes focused and intimidating. "If you're here for the ring, forget it." He made it clear, knowing that Sheila was here for the ring. It annoyed him knowing that, she was after something that she had no right over, because it belonged in the Danvers family, and it had been there for many years. Liam found it annoying and puzzling why some individuals had the tendency to forcefully claim what didn't rightfully belong to them.
Sheila aiming to create a misunderstanding between Liam and Karen, who she thought was his girlfriend, carefully spoke in a way that had everyone thinking that Liam and her were having a romantic relationship. And it was all for her own amusement, she didn't care about the damage her lies might inflict on Liam and Karen's relationship. Why would she be concerned about Liam's breakup when she herself wishes to be in a relationship with someone like him? Infact it would give her some satisfaction knowing that he wasn't dating anyone. In her honest moments, she acknowledged her attraction to him, but the reality was that pursuing a relationship with Liam was very impossible, especially now that their paths were on a collision course as adversaries. Nevertheless, she was willing to make that sacrifice to obtain the powerful and greatly desired ring, which had become a symbol of her ambition and an obsession she couldn't ignore.Karen, Upon hearing Sheila's insinuations about the good mom
The ring was very important and under no circumstances, was Liam supposed to hand it over to anyone, so even though he was threatened by Sheila's words and knew she might indeed follow up o her threats, he was still refusing to give it up, "I won't give you the ring, Sheila. And I don't think holding this place hostage is a good thing." He tried to reason with her, "Imagine, how much your reputation will be ruined if you do that.""I actually don't care about that." Sheila replied. Liam looked at her, still determined to keep the ring. He wished his security was with him right now, but he had left with Karen in such a hurry that they didn't have any security. Plus they didn't think they might need security at the event. "Well, do what you want, you are not getting this ring." Liam said.Sheila's smile vanished as she realized Liam wasn't backing down. Intending to make him see she wasn't bluffing, she turned towards Natalie, who was standing at a distance and signaled to her. Natalie
Karen was genuinely impressed with Liams quick thinking, and she was glad that his plan worked, and he managed to keep the ring from falling into Sheila's hands. Still holding one of Liam's hands, Karen drew nearer, her eyes locked on his, and she leaned in for a passionate kiss.As Karen and Liam finally broke off their passionate kiss, they found themselves gazing deeply into each other's eyes. The moment was filled with a mix of emotions: relief, desire, and the undeniable connection the two of them shared.Liam couldn't help but wonder about the path their relationship had now taken. From being close friends to sharing these intimate moments, their bond had transformed in unexpected ways. He realized that there was something more than friendship between them, something that had grown stronger with each passing day. The feelings he had for her were undeniable, and he cherished the moments they had shared. Liam couldn't help but admit to himself that he wanted a deeper, more meani
As the next morning arrived, the soft light filterwd through the curtains, making Liam wake up to find himself in his own bedroom. He sighed in satisfaction as he sat up on the bed, his thoughts drifting back to the previous night. A faint smile made its way to his lips as he reminisced about the memorable moments he had shared with Karen.Never had he ever imagined that their relationship would evolve to such an intimate level. It was a pleasant surprise, and he couldn't help but feel a deep connection with her.As he stood up, Liam remembered how he had discreetly returned to his bedroom in the early hours of the morning, ensuring that no one would discover that he and Karen had spent the night together. Letting out a sigh, he strolled to the bathroom, where he indulged in a refreshing bath, relishing the soothing water. Once he had finished bathing, Liam got dressed and made his way out of the room. He made his way to the dining room.Upon entering the dining room, Liam sat down on
