When Nadia didn't reply to her messages, Lana felt increasingly uneasy. She immediately ran to the Garrison Group to find Liam.It was Lana's first time stepping into the Garrison Group, and Hector happened to be there too. He was as excited as a child as he enthusiastically took Lana on a tour.As Lana looked around the Garrison Group, which was several times larger than the Kane Group, she couldn't help but commend Hector for his years of efforts.Hector was beaming with pride as he asked, "Lana, aren't you impressed by this? Are you interested? Why don't I hand over this company to you?"Lana thought he was joking, so she went along with Hector's words. "Sure, as long as you want to.""Really?" Hector couldn’t believe Lana had actually agreed. He immediately pulled out his phone. "I'll have my lawyer come over right away. I need to change my will."Lana immediately stopped Hector. "Hold on! You're actually being serious?"Hector was momentarily taken aback and retorted, "Do
Nadia was stunned for quite a while. After confirming that Wyatt was no longer moving, she suddenly realized a strong smell of blood in the air. She wasn't sure if Wyatt was injured or dead. The moment this thought crossed Nadia's mind, her hands and feet froze instantly. The next second, she let out a terrified scream and pushed Wyatt away. There was a loud thud, and Wyatt fell to the ground. Nadia was frightened once again and dared not move. She kept feeling that in the next second, Wyatt would suddenly leap up and once again ruthlessly grasp her neck. However, after waiting for nearly a minute, it didn't happen. Wyatt was really dead! Nadia didn't think much, and she abruptly ran toward the doorway. She had truly had enough of this place, and even if the rain and thunder outside were intense, she didn't want to stay here for another moment. However, Nadia had only run a few steps when she ran into a damp embrace head-on. To her surprise, there was a fifth pers
"Why are you here?" Liam asked. Raindrops kept sliding down his handsome face, and his eyes were cold and profound. Pressured by Liam's intimidating gaze, Howard could only resort to the same excuse he used to deceive Nadia. "I came here for a seminar!" "A seminar with the ghost?" Lana retorted as she held Nadia. Without a second thought, she approached Howard and slapped him. "Were you in on this with Emilia all along? How could you bring my sister to a place like this?" Howard was utterly shocked! He never imagined Lana would dare to slap him! "Do you think you can say whatever you want just because you have a mouth?" Howard defended himself, "If I had colluded with Emilia, would I still save her?" It was only then that Nadia remembered something important. "Yes, Lana. He saved me. He killed Wyatt!" Nadia's words were akin to a nuclear bomb. On that rainy night, the four of them faced each other with different expressions. Howard's intention was simply to prevent Na
Bonnie finally managed to bring Nadia back home. She persuaded Nadia with all her might, and in the end, Nadia could only agree to go with Bonnie to pay respects at her father's grave later. However, this time, Liam would personally escort Nadia! When leaving the hotel, Nadia graciously wished Howard, "I wish you happiness in your marriage!"Watching Nadia extend her hand, Howard's gaze was somewhat distant. He hesitated, debating whether to shake it. While Wyatt being alive was undoubtedly good news, it also meant Howard couldn't avoid the engagement ceremony with Emilia. Despite Howard's reluctance to marry Emilia, the impending restoration of the family's name forced him to sacrifice his feelings for the family's prosperity! Seeing his continued hesitation, Nadia took the initiative to step forward and shake Howard's hand. "It's really a relief that Wyatt is still alive, and you don't have to go to jail. I hope everything goes smoothly for you in the future. Thank you f
Due to last night's incident, Wyatt dared not have any contact with Nadia or even look at her. He kept his head down, silently carrying the offerings as he walked ahead.Nadia, Bonnie, and Maggie walked behind him. Meanwhile, Liam and Lana quietly followed behind Nadia. Once they reached Bonnie's husband's grave, they started to pay respects one by one. "My dear, I've found our daughter. Today, I brought her to visit you, and now you can finally have peace," Bonnie said to her husband as she cried. She then beckoned to Nadia. Nadia held a bouquet of flowers and gently placed it in front of the grave. "You can rest assured. I'm back now. I'll take good care of the family from now on. May you rest in peace." Later, Wyatt and Maggie also joined in to pay their respects. Since they had all come, Liam and Lana also paid their respects. Bonnie, looking joyful, was about to step forward to say a few words. Just then, there was a loud bang at the grave, followed by a burst of w
Seeing Wyatt's horrifying death, Maggie trembled in fear, and tears streamed down her face. "Nadia, what do we do? I'm so scared."The restroom where Wyatt was found was already in chaos. This was the first time Nadia encountered such a situation, and naturally, she didn't know what to do. Not long after, Bonnie became extremely anxious as Nadia and Maggie hadn't returned. Seeing that they were approaching the next station, yet her children were still nowhere to be seen, she went to look for them. As Bonnie approached, she saw Nadia and Maggie standing there looking bewildered. "Why are you two standing here? Where's your brother?" she asked. Later, Bonnie noticed Maggie crying, so she hurriedly went to her side. "Maggie, why are you crying? Did your brother bully you again?" Wyatt usually loved to bully Maggie and made her cry every time. Hence, Bonnie didn't give it much thought this time. She believed that Maggie had come over to get Wyatt back to their compartment, but
"Given Wyatt's personality, it's a miracle he managed to survive until now before being killed." Lana analyzed Wyatt's cause of death over the phone with Nadia."Although it's not something we can discuss openly right now, do you think he might have offended someone to the extent that they would want him dead?" Nadia asked, not entertaining Lana's words. Her silence worried Lana. "Nadia, are you listening?"Nadia finally reacted after hearing Lana's voice. "Lana, do you think there's a possibility that Dylan died because of me?"On the other end of the phone, Lana's tone suddenly became tense. "Do you know something?"Nadia carefully recalled the night when she was in her hometown and the words Dylan said when he tried to force himself on her after drugging Bonnie and Maggie."Do you know something? Don't be afraid. Tell me, and we'll solve it together."Lana thought Nadia's hesitation was due to concerns that Dylan's death might be related to her. After Nadia carefully recal
After the meal, Liam made a great effort to show his affection to Lana. However, Lana kept being indifferent, leaving Violet puzzled. When Lana went to get fruit after finishing the meal, Violet quickly pulled Liam aside."Have you two been arguing lately?"Liam shook his head. "No? We're fine. Where did you get that idea?"Violet didn't believe him. "You haven't? If you haven't, why are you acting like a peacock in full display and constantly hovering around Lana, but she's so indifferent to you?""Grandma, she's not in a good mood. She had an argument with Nadia this afternoon."After hearing Liam's explanation, Violet finally felt relieved. However, she still told Liam, "In times like this, you should be with Lana even more. "Don't be so dense and only think about yourself. If Lana dumps you, you're not my grandson anymore."Liam was speechless. Was Lana more important to her than him?However, Violet's deep affection for Lana did bring comfort to Liam. The fact that his
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
Due to the fact that the Garrison family was going to hold a banquet to introduce the mother of their beloved great-grandson, Leonardo, the Garrisons once again became the talk of the town in Dawsbury.The last time Dawsbury was so lively was when Hector introduced the Garrison family's heir to everyone.As soon as the news was released, the Garrisons became noticeably busier in the following days. 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
With that, Sawyer ignored the unpleasant expressions on Freya and Hector's faces. He immediately picked up his child and walked away.Hector was furious. 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. "Since I'm not welcome here, I guess I'll just go."With that, Lana got up and walked toward the door.Hector and Violet had been waiting for Lana's return for a long time. Now that she was finally back, how could they possibly let her go?Naturally, the two of them chased after Lana and tried to talk her out of leaving. They eventually ma
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. Alright?"Leonardo nodded obediently and turned his gaze back to Lana, continuing to address her as "Nana."While Lana appeared somewhat displeased by this unexpected turn of ev
