"If I need your help, I will definitely ask for it. For now, I can still handle it."Lana, as always, refused Liam's help whenever something happened.She just thought that it wasn't the right time yet. She could still handle the situation at hand.However, her actions only made Liam feel even more sorry for her.Liam suddenly stepped forward and enveloped Lana in a tight embrace. "What am I supposed to do with you? I can't stand seeing you treated like this."Lana obviously had such a strong supporter by her side. Even if she used Liam once, he wouldn't suffer any loss.Such were the thoughts going through Liam's mind. Lana tightly embraced Liam back. "Can you please stop worrying about me? I'm really not as fragile as you think I am."Lana had overcome many difficulties in the past. Such a small matter was nothing to her.Liam suddenly proposed, "I'll go have a talk with Emilia!"Lana let go of him and stared into his deep eyes for a while. Then she smiled and said, "Even
"Are you kidding me?"Even at this point, Emilia still couldn't believe the relationship between Liam and Lana.Liam didn't leave Emilia any room for doubt. "We met when we were in Gilsbury, and I came back to the Garrison family because she wanted to build her future in Dawsbury."Emilia was rendered speechless.It turned out that Liam and Lana had been secretly in cahoots for quite some time."I understand what kind of person Lana is, and I've been with her every step of the way. I've been following her product development from the very beginning, so no one knows better than me whether what she said is true or not."Emilia, I can't believe you would do something like this. Not only did you claim someone else's work as your own, but you even have the audacity to profit from it!"Liam lost his cool for the first time in front of an outsider.That was because he knew how difficult Lana's life had been!He wouldn't let all of Lana's efforts go to waste!Today, he would definite
The projector displayed a screenshot from Emilia's Twitter post, which she claimed to be one of the "evidence".The screenshot showed a middle-aged man with a receding hairline. He was wearing glasses, but he didn't look wise at all. With a somewhat sullen expression, he worked diligently in front of the computer.The employees immediately asked, "Lana, is this man involved in this incident?"Lana nodded and turned to Matthew. "Mr. Miller, do you recognize this man?"Matthew squinted and looked at the screenshot for a moment. Then, he suddenly shouted, "It's him! It's him!"Seeing him in a frenzy, Lana and the employees knew something was up.Visibly agitated, Matthew pointed to the man on the projector and said, "When I worked in the state-owned enterprise, this person used to be my assistant. "He started as an intern with me and later became a permanent employee. However, for some unknown reason, he suddenly resigned."I haven't heard anything about him in so long. I thought
Liam's unsightly expression seemed to confirm Lana's thoughts.Liam couldn't bring himself to say it, so Lana kindly helped him."What's wrong? I thought Ms. Watson had asked for your hand in marriage."Liam was stunned for a moment. "So you knew all along?"Lana put on a proud grin and said, "Liam, Emilia not only wears her ambitions on her sleeve but also her affection for you. Can't you tell?"He really couldn't tell! Liam had only cared about Lana all this while. So, he didn't even have the time and energy to waste on other women."I really didn't realize I was so well-liked," Liam said with a hint of resentment. "I really didn't do anything. Who knows how she ended up liking me!" Lana could tell from Liam's explanation that he was upset about Emilia's attraction toward him.If he had known that Emilia had ulterior motives for approaching him, Liam would never have agreed to meet or discuss business deals with her.Upon hearing this, Lana suddenly turned and wrapped her
Upon hearing this, Marcel Stetson lightly tapped Lana on the head with his cane."Why are you so late?"Liam was taken aback. Marcel was not only dressed like an elderly gentleman, but even his mannerism was like one.Lana felt inexplicably guilty in front of Marcel, and she stuttered as she said, "Be … because there was a traffic jam."Liam was rendered speechless.The road was clear on the way here. How could she blatantly make things up?"Traffic jam?" Marcel asked, clearly not understanding what it meant."Is it some kind of new bread spread?"Liam was once again taken aback. Did this person really come from the olden days?Lana explained, "No, it's not. It's just that there were too many cars on the road, so it took us longer to reach."Although Marcel didn't fully understand what Lana was saying, he still nodded and said, "Let's go! I'm exhausted.""Got it!" Lana said, immediately stepping forward to help Marcel with his suitcase.At that moment, a large hand reached
"You've gone too far this time, Hector!"Danny was so infuriated that he rushed up to Hector, ready to throw a punch.Fortunately, there were other people present to hold him back. They were already so old, but they almost started a brawl."You're not afraid of doing it, but you're afraid of being called out?" Hector sneered.Ever since Lana's research was stolen by Emilia, she was forced to face scrutinizing criticisms. Hector was deeply troubled by it. Since then, he had been hoping for a chance to settle the score with the Watsons.Now that they had unexpectedly delivered themselves to him on a silver platter, he wasn't going to let them off the hook."You're lucky enough to secure the bid by piecing together other people's hard work. I wonder, were all your previous successes also obtained through such dishonest means? Profiting through such unethical means, doesn't it weigh on your conscience?""Enough of your blathering!" Danny, who was being held back, couldn't help but r
"Mr. Miller, have you got wind of something?" one of the staff asked. Matthew smiled. "There are no secrets in this world, and some things aren't as straightforward as they seem. Trust me. Focus on your work, and time will bring us a satisfying outcome."Matthew's words were like a guiding light. Not only did they calm the employees' emotions, but they also piqued Lana's curiosity. After the meeting, Lana followed Matthew to his office. She asked curiously, "Mr. Miller, was what you just said true?" Matthew calmly responded, "Lana, when have I ever lied to you? Just wait and see." Since it was Matthew who said it, Lana believed him! She believed that complete trust was the only way to receive sincere treatment from the other person. Having dealt with the employees, Lana remembered she had something important to do.An elderly man recently moved into her home, and he was dissatisfied with yesterday's meals. He threatened to burn Lana's apartment down if he didn't get a prope
"Don't you think you're being overly nosy?" Marcel's presence was overpowering, causing the atmosphere in the room to become tense. "Who gives you the right to arrange matters for me?" Terrified, Nicholas's legs gave way, and he knelt directly. "Marcel, I apologize. I shouldn't have interfered in your life." As soon as Nicholas finished speaking, Marcel made a slight movement with his finger. The next second, Nicholas let out a cry of distress. Lana and Jennifer watched in astonishment as an unexplainable rash appeared on Nicholas's handsome face. It was painful and itchy, but he dared not make a move in front of Marcel. They couldn't fathom why Marcel was behaving this way again. In the past, whenever they upset Marcel, he would always use various strange methods to torment them.Although the methods seemed cruel, they never caused substantial harm, which was why they managed to survive until now. They were well aware of Marcel's abilities and knew that he hadn't been rut
