Liam didn't linger too much on his suspicion of Mrs. Wolfe. She didn't seem like the type to get involved in something as dishonest as hiring a photographer to tail him. Her disapproval of him was clear, but that didn’t mean she’d resort to such tactics… or so he convinced himself.

Liam flashed a smile at her and Karen, fully letting go of the idea. “Excuse me,” he said, and with that he walked off from them.

As he walked off, Mrs. Wolfe watched him closely, her expression unreadable. Karen noticed the way her mother was looking at him with suspicion and displeasure. Karen couldn't help feeling a hint of concern. This was nothing new, her mom didn't like Liam lately, ever since the news of him and Elena came out.

Mrs Wolfe used to be very eager for her daughter and Liam to get married, however not anymore. Liam had proved that he wasn't the best person to be with her daughter.

“What?” Karen asked, sensing that something was on her mother’s mind, and it had something to do with Lia

    The photographer finally came to a stop as he reached the yacht's edge. He looked at the open ocean stretched out before him, he had nowhere to run to, because Liam was blocking his only way out. The man turned back, his face filled with fear as he realized he was cornered. Liam slowed his pace, his eyes cold and calculating as he approached the trapped man. The photographer’s breath came in short, fearful bursts as he pressed himself against the rail, knowing he had nowhere else to run.“Who hired you?” Liam demanded, his voice low and menacing as he stepped closer towards the photographer. This time he finally got him cornered with nowhere to run and Liam was very sure he would get the truth out of him. Finally he would know about who wanted those photos of him and what their intentions were.The photographer didn’t respond to Liam's question immediately as his eyes darted around for any possible escape. Seeing as the photographer wasn't responding, Liam was getting annoyed, plus

    Liam stared down at the photographer, still holding him dangerously over the edge of the yacht, the ocean churning ominously below. The man dangled helplessly, his face was pale with terror. Liam’s mind raced with a lot of unanswered questions, trying to make sense of what the photographer had just revealed. He had just learned that it wasn't just one person who had hired the photographer, but two people, a man and a woman. Who could they be? And more importantly, what were their identities? Liam’s thoughts immediately jumped to Elena. She was here at the event, and she was the only one here in the yacht who despised him enough to do something like this, so It would make sense. However it was just a suspicion, Liam wasn’t entirely convinced that it was her. He knew that confronting Elena now wouldn't be wise as he didn’t have enough information to go on. For all he knew ,it could turn out that it wasn't Elena but someone else entirely. And one wrong move could tip off the real culp

    Mrs Wolfe and Karen walked down the stairs with hurried steps as they walked over to where Liam was. Liam noticed that Karen had a livid expression across her face as she approached him, and he wondered what was wrong? Why was she so upset? The same thing could be said about her mom, who also shared the same angry look on her face as her daughter.Karen's eyes went wide as she got closer and had a clear view of what was happening. She saw Liam standing by the railing, holding a man over the edge of the yacht. The ocean was churning below, making the scene even more frightening.Liam was gripping the terrified man by the leg. The man’s arms were flailing, and he looked desperately afraid. And it was looking like Liam was about to throw the man down into the ocean before she and her mom had arrived a few seconds later, and she was convinced that Liam would have thrown the poor guy into the ocean. Karen couldn't believe Liam was doing that. “Liam, what the hell are you doing?” Her voice

    Liam glanced down at the picture in his hand. He was still in disbelief to see that the picture was showing him sharing a kiss with Madelaine. A moment that never happened. It couldn't have possibly happened because he had just met Madelaine today.Yet here was undeniable ‘proof’ of something completely fabricated. This was clearly the work of the photographer and whoever had hired him. They had skillfully Photoshopped and edited the images, making the fake scene look disturbingly real. Liam had to admit that the edits were smooth. They looked flawless, almost impossible to detect as fake. Truth be told, even he might have believed they were real if it wasn't for the fact that he was the person in them, and he knew something like that had never even happened. Liam had feared something like this might happen, but he never imagined they would go so far as to create such a convincing lie. This was what he was trying to avoid in the first place. He had hoped to prevent Karen from seei

    After Karen walked away with her mom after she had declared that their relationship was over, Liam thought about going after her, hoping to explain even more, so he could get her to see the truth one last time. But deep down, he knew it would be useless. She wasn't going to listen to him at this point.She clearly was convinced those pictures were real, and no amount of explaining or pleading would change her mind. His best shot now was to find the person responsible for the fake photos and make them confess that it was all a setup.Speaking of the person responsible for all of this, Liam still didn’t know who it was. He had been so close to getting answers from the photographer earlier, but Karen and her mother had interrupted before he could get any names. Now the photographer had vanished, and Liam doubted he’d be able to find him on the yacht. The man had likely already slipped away into the night.Feeling the heartbreak of the breakup settling in, Liam decided to head back to the

    Elena blinked, slightly surprised that Liam was accusing her of hiring someone to take compromising pictures of him. She let out a soft laugh. “Me? Oh, please,” she said with a smirk, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “As much as I love being credited for every disaster in your life, I had nothing to do with that.” She waved her hand dismissively, “Do you really think I’d waste my time on something so petty?”Liam narrowed his eyes, still not convinced. With how desperate and hungry Elena and her brother were to cause chaos in the lives of the Danvers family, Liam wouldn’t be surprised at all if it was her. In fact, he believed she had something to do with this, somehow. If not her, then who else at this event? Elena and her brother had always been at the center of a lot of schemes against his family. It made sense she’d be involved in this too.“Then how do you know about the breakup?" Liam asked, his eyes narrowing as watched her closely, trying to catch her in a lie. This time, he

    Liam was filled with suspicion that Mrs Wolfe and Jeremy might be the one who had hired the photographer. He decided to approach them and confront them about it, although he knew that Karen had already seen the pictures, and she had believed that they were real, so the Damage was already done. It was too late, their relationship was over now, and he didn't know any way to make Karen believe this. Despite this, Liam felt compelled to face Jeremy and Karen's mom, and force them to admit that they were responsible for those edited photographs.As he approached the two of them, Jeremy spotted him from the corner of his eye. Jeremy had been engaged in a low, secretive conversation with Mrs. Wolfe, but the moment he saw Liam, he quickly signaled for Mrs. Wolfe to stop talking, clearly not wanting Liam to overhear their discussion.Both Mrs Wolfe and Jeremy glared at Liam, wondering what was the reason he walked over towards them? They both were suspecting that he must be suspicious of the

    A few months had passed since that night when Liam and Karen's relationship ended, all because of the fake pictures Mrs. Wolfe had faked. Despite the clear manipulation behind the photos, Karen seemed to believed they were real, and that belief led her to cut ties with Liam. She was heartbroken and in disbelief.During the weeks that followed after that night, Liam had made several attempts to get Karen to understand the truth. He had explained repeatedly that the photographs were edited, and that her mom and Jeremy were the ones behind it all. He tried reasoning with her, laying out the facts and pointing out the clear agenda behind the deception. But Karen, deeply hurt and heartbroken, held on to her belief that he had betrayed her, and refused to listen. She didn't want to hear that the pictures were fake, to her, Liam was lying. Every conversation Liam tried to initiate with, felt like a dead end. Her trust in him had been shattered completely and no matter how much he had tried

    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. Benn

    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
