Liam's photo had barely been posted for three minutes. But there were already an overwhelming 100,000 replies below it. His private messages were also instantly disabled. It couldn't even be clicked open."Hey, check me out. I'm easygoing and versatile. Would you be my boyfriend?""I'm here with the entrance ticket to love. When will it be my turn? Even if you're a jerk, I'll accept it as long as I can be your girlfriend.""Who is this guy? With looks like that, he should definitely consider becoming a celebrity. Please make your debut, and I'll support you wholeheartedly."Others went to the extreme by posting their own photos in the replies. Some of the photos were quite revealing. Chris covered his eyes and chuckled. "Do you believe in your attractiveness now, Liam?"Liam had always considered his phone a mere communication device for making calls. He never used social media apps and had no interest in chatting with strangers.But today, he finally realized that these soci
At the same time, several other branches of Lana's Vegan Restaurant were also subject to court-ordered closures.When Lana arrived at the restaurant, the court officials had already left. She could hear the noise of a quarrel coming from behind the closed doors.Peter and Jane were engaged in a heated argument with Bo and his men.The moment Jane saw Lana, she clung to her as if she had found a life savior. She tightly held Lana's hand and broke into tears. "Lana, you're finally here. Bo, that grateful scoundrel, has actually taken us to court," she exclaimed. Lana helped Jane sit down and poured her a glass of water. "Don't be mad, Jane. Even your voice has turned hoarse."Jane couldn't bring herself to drink. She immediately told Lana everything that had happened.Peter rushed over to Lana and angrily slapped himself a few times, saying, "It's all my fault, Lana. I should have listened to you. The restaurant's business has ended up like this because of my mistakes."Lana qu
Lana forced a bitter smile. "It's not a big deal. Some people can betray you repeatedly without any remorse. We just need to be cautious around such people because they lack a moral compass."Upon hearing her words, Peter felt ashamed and lowered his head.Even children understand such basic moral principles. And yet, he was deceived, believing that a hint of conscience was still guiding Bo.If Lana hadn't anticipated it, what would they have done? Should they have closed the restaurant, or should they have given Bo a share of the business?The issue with the restaurant was resolved when Bo was sentenced to prison for fraud. Lana then took over his restaurant, turning it into another branch of their business.After the theft of the secret recipe, Lana's Vegan Restaurant regained popularity. It began to draw a lot of attention. As a result, the restaurant experienced a significant boost in sales, reaching a new peak.The restaurant now boasted six branches in Gilsbury, all consist
Lana rolled her eyes and said, "Do you think Business Administration is ordinary? Do you know how many people dream of studying it but never get the chance? "If it weren't for your excellent event planning for the new store, I wouldn't have allowed you to pursue this."Kelvin appeared to grasp what she said and asked, "So, am I just part of this package deal?"Visibly frustrated, Lana replied, "If you don't get it, then forget it."Billy, known for his quick wit, noticed Lana's frustration. He realized that Kelvin had been in a challenging situation, too. Without hesitation, he affectionately patted Kelvin on the head.Billy moved to comfort him. "Boss only agreed because your family has been in business for generations. Otherwise, she wouldn't have bothered.""At last, someone who understands!" Lana exclaimed.Although Kelvin had dropped out of school and spent time with Billy and Luke, he came from a well-off family. They were part of a small local business elite in Gilsbury.
Was Lana trying to stir up trouble?Even the Traffic Light Trio had advised her, "Boss, don't go. You'll just end up getting scolded. That won't be a good look on you.""I've heard dealing with people in the entertainment industry can be tough. Maybe we should avoid any issues," one of them suggested.Laura cautiously approached Lana and whispered, "Lana, I have a feeling these people are up to no good. Should I grab a broom and shoo them away?"Lana offered them a faint smile. She reassured them, "Maybe things aren't as bad as you think. Just watch me."They watched as Lana approached the luxurious limousine parked at the restaurant's entrance.The presence of the limousine had already attracted a lot of attention. A group of young girls had gathered there. They were holding support signs with encouraging messages for John.Lana wasn't very familiar with fan culture. She simply didn't want her business to be disrupted.She politely knocked on the car window. John's assistant r
As Billy and Lana entered, they narrowly avoided being splashed by a bucket of soapy water."Are you blind?" Billy exclaimed.The defiant maid, who had nearly splashed them, retorted, "Maybe you're the one who's blind. You're purposely coming over here when we're busy."From the maid's attitude, Billy's inferior position in this household was crystal clear. His status couldn't even compare to that of a mere servant.Just as Billy was about to retort, Lana immediately stopped him. "Why get all worked up over someone beneath you? It only brings you down," Lana said casually.At that moment, it clicked for Billy. Without even raising her voice, Lana had indirectly insulted the maid. Billy felt strangely gratified. The maid felt offended. Naturally, she wasn't going to let them off easily. She pointed at Lana and scoffed, "Who do you think you are? How dare you talk nonsense here?"Lana sneered in disdain, "Who do you think you are? Do you believe everyone in this family has va
"Boss! Are you planning to push her to the brink of death?" Billy's voice trembled with anxiety as he emerged from David's house.Despite Stella's cruelty, Billy's enduring kindness toward her was astounding.Lana's eyes widened as she noticed the concern etched on Billy's face. "Of course! Just look at her attitude!" she exclaimed.Hearing her statement, Billy couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat.He could hardly believe that his seemingly delicate and beautiful boss, who was also an excellent cook, could carry out something as ruthless as poisoning someone.Fortunately, Billy, Luke, and Kelvin hadn't provoked Lana back then. Who knew what kind of retaliation they might have faced?"You shouldn't worry about her. Didn't you mention your sick mother just now? We should visit her!" Lana urged, trying to divert his attention. Assuming she wanted a casual visit, Billy hesitated, his words stumbling out. "Boss, it's not necessary. My mother has been ill for years. I'm just wor
How awkward!It turned out Liam had overheard Lana's conversation with Billy earlier.Lana forced a smile, a hint of discomfort in her expression. "Mr. Liam, you're such a busy person. What brings you here today?"Liam remained silent.Luckily, he and Chris were present. Otherwise, how would he have known she was spreading rumors about his "death"?Liam's impassive face revealed his frustration.Feeling the tension, Lana acted wisely. If she lingered any longer, she might find herself in the hospital as well."If there's nothing else, Mr. Liam, I'll be on my way. I won't disturb you any longer," Lana said.Chris snorted, "Consider yourself lucky I'm letting you off easy. Otherwise, I'd call the police on you, you stalker."Normally, Lana would have fired back at Chris, but her safety was at stake now. She hurriedly left.Just then, Liam, who had been silent all along, suddenly said, "Wait."Lana abruptly stopped in her tracks, her movements rigid. She turned toward Liam, her
