"Gilsbury seemed to have held you back and wasn't suitable for your development. You've made the right decision to come to Dawsbury.

"Are you interested in joining our research on mobile phone base stations? We have a team of experts, but we need your technical expertise. Mr. Kane, would you consider a collaboration for mutual benefit?"

Emilia had quite the knack for this.

Even if she had admired Liam, she wouldn't show it overtly. Instead, she played her cards based on Liam's preferences. This method had been proven effective in gaining the favor of others.

Liam was no exception either.

At first, he was fooled by Emilia's outward appearance. He always thought that she was just another pretty but useless heiress, just like the ladies he had known in the past.

But as they talked more, Liam realized that the beautiful lady before him was different than the ones he had known before.

She was decisive and had sharp business acumen. It was no wonder when he looked her in the eyes on t

    "Grandpa Hector, I don't wanna be a slacker at such a young age. You should consider someone else."Lana's refusal only made Hector and the other bigwigs think that she was a diamond in the rough. Even with such favorable conditions, Lana was still indifferent about it. She was clearly ambitious!Hector was still looking for excuses to trick Lana into marrying his grandson, but someone actually took her words seriously.Out of nowhere, Freya suddenly spoke up, "Dad, I think Ms. Clark is right. She's still young and ambitious. She doesn't want to waste her life being a slacker. Since she's willing to pass this opportunity to someone else, I have a very suitable candidate."Despite Hector's murderous gaze, Freya continued, "I've always heard about Emilia from the Watson family. She's not only attractive, but she's also known for her outstanding abilities. I saw her earlier, and she really lives up to the expectations."I think that if she's with Liam, it would be a win-win situat

    Just when everyone thought that Lana was about to get it, a loud slap echoed through the entire banquet hall.However, the person who was struck wasn't Lana.Rosa covered her burning cheek with her hand, her eyes were brimming with tears. She glared at Lana with contempt."How dare you hit me?"She had always been treated like a princess since she was a child. No one had ever dared to hit her.And it was in front of so many people!Lana looked at her with an air of indifference. "What's the matter? Do I need to make an appointment to hit you? You were the one who started it. I'm not foolish enough to just stand there and let you hit me."How ridiculous!Does she even need a reason to hit someone?Rosa was so ashamed and embarrassed that she rushed toward Lana again without thinking.Facts had once again proven that Rosa was really a mindless fool.She couldn't even hit Lana in a surprise attack, so was a direct attack even possible?All that they could hear on the scene w

    When he heard that his grandson finally agreed, Hector smiled so hard that his face wrinkles deepened."I've got good taste, right?" Hector smiled like a child who had just gotten his favorite toy."I've told you before, you'll definitely be satisfied with her!"Before Hector could continue to brag, Liam suddenly looked at Lana. She was playfully taunting the bodyguards. With a smirk, he said. "Bring her to my room."As soon as Liam said this, everyone in the room was paralyzed in fear.Even the bodyguards were so frightened that they could barely speak. "Mr. Liam, you really … really want to take her down?"Upon hearing this, Liam responded coldly, "I don't want to repeat myself!"The head of the bodyguards felt a chill run down his spine. He quickly acted on it.Liam was younger than him. He wasn't even involved in the same dangerous field as him. However, every time Liam spoke, he couldn't help but feel that Liam's words could freeze someone to death.Hector finally realize

    "B-but—" Rosa continued to stammer, failing to articulate a coherent sentence."Could it be that Rosa was just overconfident?""It seems so. Didn't you see the expression on her face when Mr. Garrison Senior had only just met her? It was hilarious.""I can't stand people who act so high and mighty."Listening to the comments about herself, Rosa's face was colored with different shades of embarrassment. She hurriedly looked for the girls who had praised her earlier, attempting to get them to step forward and help. However, those girls had already distanced themselves, afraid of being associated with her. They were whispering and pointing at her like everyone else.It was a stab to her heart. If not for their praises, she wouldn't have become so arrogant. It was all their fault. When she got back, she was going to complain to her mother. She would make them pay.Instead of garnering attention, she ended up playing a fool. Rosa could only slink away in shame. However, she wo

    As soon as Lana changed into clean clothes, she heard a helicopter arrive. As it landed on the Garrison Villa's lawn, it drew the attention of many guests."Hey, isn't that the woman who was taken to Liam's room earlier?" someone exclaimed, puzzled."No wonder everyone wants to marry a wealthy man. Look, she's flying in a helicopter today. Maybe she'll be given a mansion and a luxury car tomorrow?" "What are you jealous of? She's beautiful, confident, and elegant. Do you have any of that?"As the onlookers discussed, a tall figure boarded the helicopter. Lana, like everyone else, stared at him in confusion."Why are you getting on too?" she asked.Liam didn't reply. He simply sat down beside her. Then, the helicopter swiftly ascended and took off.During the journey to the hospital, Lana was so deeply buried in her worries that she didn't even notice the loud noise of the helicopter engines. Then, a pair of headphones suddenly appeared over her head.Soothing music drowned out

    After conducting a simple diagnosis on Mandy and confirming she was alright, Lana suggested that Liam should go back and rest. She and Mandy were friends. So, it was only natural for her to stay, but Liam wasn't obligated. There was no need for him to stay the night at the hospital.Romelius also agreed with Lana's suggestion. He pointed out that Mandy needed rest, and having too many people around wouldn't help. So Lana escorted Liam back to the rooftop helipad, intending to see him off.As he had no medical expertise, Liam knew he would only be in the way if he stayed. Besides, he had some matters to discuss with Hector. Thus, he boarded the helicopter without any protest.Just as he was about to get on, Lana suddenly ran up to him and hugged him tightly around the waist. "Liam, I was wrong. From now on, I won't leave you. Even if you ask me to go, I won't."Finally, a genuine smile appeared on his face. It was a rare sight. However, it disappeared as quickly as it had come

    Lana's decisive and powerful movements not only shocked Joyce, whom she sent flying but also surprised Romelius and Mandy.Everyone was aware that Lana's kick was something that had to be honed through practice. So, she was probably a skilled fighter. Lana looked slender. So, no one really expected her to be so strong. Joyce was kicked to the wall, and then she fell heavily onto the ground. She was in so much pain she couldn't even move. She only managed to get up after lying still on the ground for a while. "How … dare you attack me?"Lana was amused. Joyce was indeed Rosa's mother. They said the exact same thing after being beaten. "It's only fair. If you want to hit someone, expect to get hit back." Then, Lana's stern gaze fell on Romelius. "What about you? You just watched as she was hitting someone?"Romelius felt wronged. "I didn't just stand by and watch. I tried to stop her but failed."Lana sneered. "Got it. You're a weakling."He can't even restrain a woman. Th

    Would Lana forgive him and spend the rest of her life with him?Liam's heart was filled with a sense of anticipation.Since the reason for the incident had been clarified, everyone let out a sigh of relief at the same time and also went back to rest. Even Leonardo was taken away just to give the two people who had been apart for a long time some space to be alone.After everyone had left, Liam straightened out his clothes and approached Lana, then proceeded to slowly crouch down."Lana!"In the man's deep and sexy voice, there was an unusual tremor and a hint of choked emotion.Liam had no idea what kept him going during these years after losing Lana.Liam didn't dare to do anything too bold. Instead, he gently leaned his handsome face against Lana's hand, repeatedly calling her name.Three years had already passed since Lana left in a fit of anger, setting off a series of events afterward.If she still had any resentment, it would have vanished when she saw Liam's tall figu

    Liam's outstretched hand awkwardly hung in the air, and eventually, he could only withdraw it."Speak up if you have something to say, or else, stay quiet. We're not in the mood to listen to you." Hector's attitude toward Liam was still unfavorable, to the extent that he didn't even want to see him.Lana suddenly said, "Something very serious actually happened today."Following that, she placed Leonardo down and showed everyone the wound on his neck.A ring of red marks surrounded Leonardo's delicate neck. In some places, the marks were so swollen that it looked like a tire had been wrapped around his neck. It was a shocking sight to behold.Hector, Violet, Mandy, and Romelius were immediately enraged."What happened to Leo?""What happened to his neck? It could have been fatal if it was any worse.""Who was responsible for watching Leo today? How could they be so negligent and let the child get injured so badly?""This doesn't look like any ordinary wound. It looks like it wa

    "Stop looking at me like that. If you want to kill or torture me, go ahead." Cynthia knew what would happen to her after the truth came out, so she gave up struggling. "However, even after my death, I'll haunt you for the rest of your life!"As they listened to her absurd threat, Lana and the Traffic Light Trio burst into laughter."If ghosts were real, then Emilia would be the first to look for you."When her deceased sister was mentioned, Cynthia's smile remained unchanged. "That fool probably never knew it was me who betrayed her until her death."Considering the situation, Cynthia didn't believe she could leave the Garrison Villa tonight."What exactly do you gain by single-handedly destroying the Cooper family?"Lana was still very confused by Cynthia's actions.After all, Emilia and Cynthia were twins and had the same blood coursing through their veins. With all the Coopers gone, Cynthia had nothing to gain from it either!Cynthia sneered at Lana's question. "Lana, yo

    On the evening of the banquet, the Garrison Villa was bustling with distinguished guests.Initially, everyone's attention was on the precious great-grandson of the Garrison and Kane family. With his confident and lively demeanor, the chubby child was absolutely adorable. Everyone was naturally curious about who the child might have chosen as his stepmother.It should be noted that the Garrison and Kane family only had one great-grandson. His future was destined to be extraordinary. As long as one could control the child, it was much more worthwhile than dealing with those individuals from the two affluent families.After all, the elders from the two families were very attentive and doting toward this child. Surprisingly, Liam, who was said to have been away from home for a long time, had returned. During the reception of guests, he unexpectedly had a smile on his face.The ladies who had come tonight, vying for the position of Liam's wife, became even more excited.Liam typi

    On the night before the banquet, Romelius and Mandy finally brought Leonardo back.Lana was overjoyed, and she immediately went to the bungalow where they were staying.At that time, Leonardo had just returned home and was playing with toys on the living room floor."Leo, you're back! Did you miss Mommy? Mommy missed you so much!"Lana ran toward Leonardo, talking to him while reaching out to hug him. In a flash, Leonardo suddenly ran toward Romelius while holding a toy car.After that, he kept hiding in his arms, refusing to come out. He would occasionally peek out from the gaps to glance at Lana.His actions clearly showed that he refused to accept Lana.Lana's enthusiasm was dampened, and her outstretched arms awkwardly remained in midair. She looked at Romelius and then at Mandy as if waiting for them to persuade Leonardo. However, these two remained silent and only greeted Lana in a casual manner."Oh, Lana, you've come?" Mandy said while presenting her with a basket o

All of them were busy scurrying around and helping Hector deliver the invitations.In addition to people who had business dealings with the Garrison family, the invitations were naturally sent to people who were familiar with Lana in the past. Therefore, as soon as the Traffic Light Trio received the invitation, they didn't even go to work and immediately ran to Liam's office—intending to get an explanation from him.At that time, Liam had just finished a phone call from overseas and was deep in thought when the office door was suddenly kicked open.Lincoln stood at the door, looking

He glared at Liam, his eyes burning with anger. It was clear that he thought Liam was the one responsible for Lana's predicament.Liam was once again innocently caught in the crossfire.Freya set aside her current tasks, offered some comforting words to Hector, and then got up and chased after them.She knew Sawyer well enough and was certain that he would never have treated someone like this unless there was a reason.As Freya's family of three left, Lana's face bore a sorrowful expression.

    Liam sensed a challenging undertone in Lana's stare. After all this time, had they truly become adversaries?Releasing Lana abruptly, Violet gently patted her arm, her eyes filled with profound hurt."You're here, alive and well. Why did you leave us in the shadows? Even if you chose not to contact anyone else, you should've considered reaching out to me. Do you have any idea how much I missed you?"Over the years, Violet had been grappling with a deep sense of loss.Though it remained an unspoken sentiment among them, Violet was aware of the underlying blame directed toward Liam for what was believed to be Lana's demise.Had Liam been more emotionally available, their relationship wouldn't have crumbled. It would've stopped Lana from seeking refuge overseas while carrying their child, an act that set the stage for her heartbreaking destiny.Witnessing Liam's anguish and believing Lana to be lost forever had taken a severe toll on Violet's health, aging her considerably."Gr

    Liam guided Leo to Lana's room.As they entered, Lana was already awake, bathed in the serene morning light streaming through the window.Upon hearing their arrival, Lana, while brushing her hair, shifted her gaze toward them—a familiar scene echoing times gone by."Good morning, Liam and Leo!" she greeted them effortlessly.Without hesitation, Leonardo squirmed out of Liam's embrace and darted toward Lana, exclaiming, "Hi, Nana!"Lana paused, momentarily surprised by Leonardo's nickname. "Leo, you should be calling me 'Mommy'!" she gently corrected him.Leonardo hesitated momentarily before redirecting his attention to Liam.Even though Liam hadn't exchanged a single word with Lana, he spoke up when Leo glanced his way, firmly stating, "Feel free to do as you wish. There's no need to seek my approval.
