Rose's heart pounded in her chest as she watched Liam's eyes, their warm glow suddenly tainted with a flicker of anger. Her gaze shifted from Liam to the old woman who had been conversing with him just moments ago. The woman exuded an air of opulence and spoke with a commanding tone that seemed to carry the weight of her wealth. Clad in an evening dress that radiated elegance and allure, she stood out among the attendees of the auction.Confusion and curiosity consumed Rose's thoughts. How could Liam bring her to such a public event, especially when they were supposed to be maintaining the facade of a happy couple?

Rose's heart raced as she sped along the unfamiliar country roads, her mind consumed by a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions. She clutched the steering wheel tightly, her knuckles turning white as she tried to navigate through the tears blurring her vision.Garla, the housekeeper at Liam's apartment, had left several urgent messages for her, insisting that she return and have a conversation with him. Little did Garla know, Rose was already aware of Liam's past affairs. She knew that by becoming his wife, she would be forced to confront those painful chapters of his life, just as she had witnessed the elderly woman's confrontation at the auction, a woman named Penelope whose name was connected to Liam in some way.As Rose's tears continued to flow, her mind raced with questions. How could Liam have hidden these affairs from her? Was he truly remorseful? Could she ever trust him again? The weight of the truth threatened to suffocate her, but she knew she had to confront it head-on.Lost

Liam took the files from Leo's hands and opened one of them. Inside were photographs of Rose with a mysterious man, caught in intimate moments that broke his heart. He couldn't believe what he was seeing, and anger and sadness welled up inside him."What is this?" Liam demanded, trying to keep his composure."Evan and Jodi have been investigating Rose for a while now," Leo explained. "It appears she's been seeing someone else behind your back."Liam's mind was a whirlwind of emotions. Betrayal and hurt mixed with confusion and anger. He couldn't fathom why Rose would do this to him, and he felt a deep ache in his chest."I can't believe this," Liam said, his voice trembling.
