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

    Seeing Lana's astonished expression, Liam felt confident he had made the right purchase.These pendants must conceal a secret. Why else would Lana be so eager to snatch them? She was normally so calm and composed. "It was a gift from someone else," Liam explained, his final act of stubbornness.Without a hint of doubt, Lana nodded and said, "Actually, now that I look at them, they don't seem that impressive."The difference between ancient and modern carving techniques was undeniably vast.What the ancients deemed exquisite might not be perceived the same way now.With a sigh of relief, Lana said, "Luckily, some fool bought them last time, or I would have faced a significant loss."The fool in question, Liam, remained silent.Despite her indifference, Liam was puzzled by Lana's earnest desire to snatch the pendants. So, he decided to test her."Do you want to take a closer look?" he asked, extending the pendants toward Lana.Without hesitation, Lana took the pendants, examin

    Stella's eyes rolled back as she fainted on the spot.Enraged, David grabbed Billy and gave him a good beating. Nicole cried uncontrollably by the side, berating David for his lack of conscience.The room was in chaos. But instead of stopping it, Lana merely cleared her throat. She said, "Even the antidote can't save you if you can't regain your consciousness." Hearing this, Stella immediately jolted up and rushed to Lana's side. "Please, spare me! Give me the antidote. My children are still young; they can't live without their mother!""Sure, I can give it to you." Lana leaned leisurely against the door frame. She glanced over at Billy and Nicole as she continued, "But have you done the things I told you to do yesterday?"Stella asked in tears, "What did you ask me to do?"It was only then that she remembered. Lana had asked her to kneel and beg for forgiveness from Billy and Nicole.Ever since Stella had got together with David, she had always been arrogant and domineerin

    Nicole did not look like she was joking at all. She held onto Lana's hand tightly, refusing to let go even when Lana's hand turned red.Billy stammered in shock, "Mom, let go. She's not Aunt Sasha. Aunt Sasha passed away many years ago."Lana explained patiently as she told Billy to step aside. "Auntie, please take a closer look. I'm not the person you mentioned. I'm Lana!"Her voice was calm and gentle with a soothing tone. Nicole quickly calmed down."I'm really sorry!" Tears streamed down Nicole's face. "For a second there, I really thought you were my younger sister. You look so much like her.""Please don't take it to heart, Boss. This is the first time I've seen my mom like this. She's not usually like this," Billy explained. He was worried that Lana might mistake his mother for being mentally ill."Don't worry, Billy. I understand," Lana replied.After comforting Nicole, Lana called for the doctors and nurses to conduct a thorough examination.Billy accompanied Nicole

    The news of Lana's participation in the Chef King Championship somehow reached Carol's ears."I wonder who gave that country bumpkin the courage to attend the competition? I bet she's never even eaten bread rolls before!" Jennifer scoffed. She couldn't help but burst into laughter. Sarah snorted coldly. "You'd better stop mocking her. That so-called country bumpkin managed to snatch Eric away. What have you been doing then?""Mom …" Jennifer was exasperated but had nothing to say.Eric had moved on from Jennifer recently. Rumor had it that she had been bothering him so much that he had issued a statement declaring himself single. He had completely cut ties with her.Now, she had become the laughingstock for all the women in Gilsbury."Don't call for me. Lana wouldn't have been able to take advantage of the situation if you were capable enough.""But he's not with Lana now. Doesn't that mean I still have a chance?"Jennifer's words rendered both Sarah and Carol speechless.

    30 minutes passed in the blink of an eye. Soon, the venue began to announce a ten-minute countdown. The works of the other contestants were nearing completion. Even Kayla had started to work on the oven.Only then did the figure who had been dozing off begin to move.Lana removed her sunglasses, revealing a bright pair of eyes. She had a cold yet enchanting gaze. It was evident that she was a beauty from just one look alone.She took out a thermos from her backpack and poured the pre-prepared broth into the pot. Then, she retrieved a sealed container from her bag. She shook the pasta inside and placed them into the boiling broth. After the pasta was cooked, she scooped them into a plate and sprinkled some green onions as garnish. Her masterpiece was complete. The other contestants who had been observing her blink in surprise. They couldn't help but curse inwardly. Does that dish even count as a competition entry?How is this any different from the pasta their mom makes

    The judges couldn't believe their eyes when a plate of plain pasta appeared in the competition. A few of them even rubbed their eyes in an attempt to give the dish the benefit of the doubt.After experiencing the exquisite dish prepared by Kayla, Lana's pasta seemed like a joke.Even if the pasta sauce seemed tasteless and had no meat, surely some vegetables were still in it? However, she had only garnished the dish with green onions. It was as if she was too stingy to cook other side dishes. "Please introduce your dish." Lana finally opened her eyes after hearing the question. She had been up all night preparing the pasta sauce, causing her to doze off today."This is pasta, made with—""Pasta? Anyone can make the same dish. Why did you enter the competition with it?" Terence interrupted her without letting her finish. "Shouldn't you show some sincerity if you want to compete?

    "No way!" Kayla was the first to stand up and express her doubts. She thought that today's competition was specially tailored for her to showcase her culinary skills. Plus, she didn't notice any underdogs present. So she couldn't be in second place.Terence paused for a moment. And then, he calmly announced as if he hadn't heard Kayla's words, "First place goes to Lana Clark!""Lana?""Who is Lana?"Before this, Kayla was one of the more famous people among the contestants. Who was this Lana who suddenly appeared out of nowhere?Kayla frowned. Her pretty face creased in thought, and she whispered to her assistant beside her. "Quickly, go and find out who this Lana is.""Lana is the person I was talking about!" Carol, who was standing nearby, immediately said.Her face was as pale as a ghost. From the looks of it, one might even think she had lost the competition! How could it be Lana again? And how did she manage to defeat Kayla? How was that possible?At that moment, a slend

    Justin added in a defeated tone, "Kayla, your dish today is indeed full of creative ideas, but when it comes to seasoning …"Although he didn't finish his sentence, it was even more hurtful."I told you, your seasoning is the problem. It's too bland. You can't even taste the original flavor of the food." Yves was an adorable senior. He didn't think too much about it and directly expressed his thoughts. "Wait, you're Mr. Stark's granddaughter? How could he have such a terrible cook as his granddaughter?" John realized belatedly.Lucas shook his head in defeat. "We already turned a blind eye to you and gave you points. And yet, you're accusing other people of cheating. If there really is someone playing unfairly, it's you! Did you know? She achieved a perfect score."Comments left by the five judges were like arrows striking into her chest. It was too painful to even lift her head.Kayla suddenly realized that she had tarnished her family's reputation!"Don't give up!" Lana,

    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?

"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

    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

"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
