"I don't think Betina is qualified to be my son's stepmother!" Liana revealed the truth, and Edward smiled even harder.

"Well, I have to appreciate her honesty. But, if she's not qualified, who is? Eventually, I'll have to remarry."

"Honestly? No one." Liana answered truthfully.

"In other words, you think no one is good enough to be my wife?"

"As long as my son is involved, no one will be good enough, but if you give me custody of him, you can stay any woman you wish!" Liana answered without hesitation.

Of course, anyone but her.

"What are you going to do then? Drive away all the women who come near me?" Edward asked with interest. His tone seemed to suggest that he was encouraging her to do so.

"I'm not so interested in your life, I just want my son." Liana's lips curved into a slight smile.

"But he is also my son and is destined to stay within the White Family!"

"I already told you, I will find a way to get him out."

"There is a fairly simple way!" Edward tilted his hea

    "I just don't want to marry a woman who once conspired against my own marriage." "The Adams family and us, we have a long history together. Have you thought about the consequences?" "I would rather face any kind of consequence than betray me to fulfill your wishes." Edward replied in an equally nonchalant tone, and only Edward could talk to his grandfather that way, and John smiled at his response, for he knew his grandson was right, there was no reason for a White to lower himself to fulfill someone else's dreams. "So, did you really start to fall in love with this woman?" John was still smart, and Edward's sudden pause wasn't just for him, it probably had to do with Liana as well. The fact that he was willing to defy his mother to cross the Adams family over a woman means that on some level this grandson of mine cares about her, however, there are many ways to end an engagement, but Edward has not admitted or denied it. "So, are you two planning to remarry? "John continued with

    "Didn't I tell you not to mention custody in front of my grandfather?" He stopped and grumbled helplessly as they turned into the hallway. "I didn't promise you I wouldn't." Liana let go of Edward's arms, and in that moment, he felt inexplicably disappointed. "But doing so would make you angry, and I don't think you can handle the consequences." He retracted the hand that was still warm with the heat of her body and said. "What's the worst thing that could happen? Kill me?" Liana asked dismissively. "Sure, he wouldn't go that far, but he would probably forbid her from seeing Dylan." Edward laughed at Liana's thought. "Forbidding me to take him away, or forbidding me to see him, what's the difference?" Liana asked sighing in bewilderment, lowering her eyes in anguish. Edward sensed Liana's sadness, but could not understand why. "You want custody of Dylan so badly?" he asked in a gentle tone. "Yes." Liana answered without hesitation. "You mentioned that you are willing to do

    "Let her try! If she can do that, tell her she can name anything, and if it is within my ability, I will gladly grant it!" The Madame spoke at once, and Suelen felt her heart soar, and an uneasiness troubled her heart at the appearance of a new threat, however, she quickly calmed down, after all, Liana would not be able to do this, and it comes to be ridiculous to think that this woman out of nowhere could threaten her position. She swore Liana would fail, and Madame White's answer came quickly in the room Liana was in, the matriarch of the family was willing to let her try, and promised that if she succeeded, she would be more than willing to honor her wish. And, Edward's grandfather stared at her with his piercing gaze. There was a hidden threat in his words. "Now that you have given her hope, you had better not let us down or you will never see your son again as long as you live!" Instead of worrying, Liana felt relieved to realize how much Edward's grandfather cared about his e

    "That may be true, but I still have to tell you, this mission doesn't just involve my grandmother, it's a permanent scar on my grandfather's heart as well. It is an issue that has bound them together for their entire lives. In fact, I believe my grandfather will be willing to give you half of the White Family estate if you can solve this problem." Edward continued regardless. "I understand. " Liana nodded, and she had no interest in the White Family money, and even though the amount was probably astronomical. When Liana revealed her address, Edward was both happy and shocked, and he had no idea that she had moved to a place so close to his home, of course, he was not vain enough to think that the move because of her, and it was obvious that it was because she wanted to be close to Dylan, and once again, Edward began to feel jealous of his own son. The little guy was probably the only one who could make Liana's heart flutter. "What's wrong?" Liana heard him laughing as she was gettin

    "It's no problem, between, because of this challenge, we'll be spending a lot of time together, so you'd better get used to it!" Edward spoke seriously, but of course, his real meaning was much more ambiguous. Liana stared at him, who held her gaze with his own that burned with passion. Then, without saying anything else, she looked away and gave in, getting into the car; after all, if Edward was willing to be her chauffeur, she didn't care one bit. To be fair, she probably didn't care about any tricks he wanted to do, because he was so unimportant in her mind, and she was lazy to argue with him about such frivolities, she just wanted to concentrate on finishing her plan. But her indifference was, to Edward, an advantage, because it seemed that Liana was not averse to his company, and his heart just soared at the thought of it. He knew he couldn't push himself on Liana because Liana was no ordinary woman. If he annoyed her in any way, the opportunity to get to know her, to get clos

    Suelen was sure that this person was Liana, and she was incredibly surprised that Liana was so capable, and no wonder she was brave enough to make such an arrogant promise, she had some support. However, good hacking skills did not translate into the ability to design an artificial limb. After all, hacking and mechanical engineering were two separate fields. She had studied mechanical engineering from a young age, and even after partnering with the best of the best, she could not design an artificial limb emulated by humans, much less an outsider like Liana Legrand! She was doomed to fail! Regardless, she refused to let Liana challenge her in her own environment, after all, the lab was her territory and she would show no kindness to those who threatened her position. The fact that Suelen was willing to learn medical computer science that she had absolutely no interest in just to please Madame White, showed the size of her ambitions. Her ambition was simple, which was to own half o

    "If CEO White was willing to give such an order, that means he has faith in Miss Liana's ability. Don't you trust CEO White's talent?" He tried to rescue her. "It's not impossible that CEO White is wrong, and besides, trusting her is CEO White's business, so it has nothing to do with us." The taller engineer replied. "That's right, if she is as talented as you claim, then show her to us." There was a twinkle in Suelen's eyes as an interesting idea popped into her mind. "You listened to the guys, right? Everyone here has their own unique temperament." She looked coldly at Liana and asked. "There's no reason to worry about that, Miss Legrand will only be here for a month and we'll just work together and not harm the harmony of the workplace." For some reasons, Suelen started to get nervous. "If she doesn't have the ability, we won't allow her to lead us even for a day!" Suelen spoke twisting her nose at Liana like a queen residing in her court, and Liana knew this was all a sham.

    Joseph predicted that this was the trick she was up to, so he regretted not stopping Liana when he had the chance, after all, the challenge would come most not from Suelen, but from the scientists and teachers there. No matter how talented Liana might be, she was still young, how could she compete with decades of experience? In any case, no one was on her side, there was no reason for that. All but one... Standing outside the door, a large man studied Liana closely, his pair of eyes shining with excitement, he believed that Liana is capable of surprising everyone there. Of course, besides this mysterious man, Liana's biggest supporter was herself! After all, she was climbing her way back without the help of anyone but herself, and she was not affected by Suelen's little trick. She didn't care who her opponent was. "Well, at least you still know your limits and let someone else compete in your place, and here I was afraid that the challenge would be over too quickly." Liana spoke t

    After Liana woke up, she was interrogated by the police, but since she couldn't remember anything, there was nothing she could answer. Fortunately, the hotel manager intervened to vouch for her. Later, the real killer of Veronica was arrested, so the police released her.He smiled and said, "It seems what they say is correct. The me in this second is different from the me in the last second. Changing the past is a very difficult thing to do because a large part of time and space will be distorted, and who is man to challenge the natural process of time and space?""You're right, but luckily, we managed to change the past," Liana nodded."No, we didn't change anything," Edward shook his head."We didn't?" Liana furrowed her brow; if they hadn't, how could he be so slow?As if he were reading her thoughts, Edward couldn't help but smile."But we changed the future.""What do you mean by that?""The man acknowledged our effort and was willing to give the world another 25 years, but we ch

    "He's escaping!" Edward hissed vehemently.He then leaped out of the window ledge and landed on the ground. This was the second floor, but he jumped without hesitation. Liana saw this and rushed down the stairs as fast as she could. Unfortunately, when she reached the ground floor, she could only see Edward's shadow fleeing.Liana used her top speed to catch up, and Edward was chasing the killer. The killer was running with Veronica on his back. He jumped into a car parked on the road, then threw Veronica inside and drove away.Edward almost caught up to the car but arrived a second too late. He could only watch as the car sped away."Get in!" Liana had already anticipated the killer's actions, so she had stopped a car at the side of the road, and Edward got into the car without hesitation."Chase that car in front of us!" Liana ordered the driver. The driver stepped on the gas pedal but asked uncertainly, "What are you planning?""Catch him, and this is all yours!" Edward, who was si

    After securing his room, Edward exited through the hotel's back door and headed towards Veronica's residence.Veronica didn't live far from the small hotel, but it would still take ten minutes to walk there. She resided in a dilapidated residential area. The surroundings consisted of old, abandoned three-story buildings. Most of them had broken windows and, looking from the outside, appeared completely dark and uninhabited.Only a few rooms had dim lights filtering from within. The streetlights in this residential area were all broken, and the place was dark. Occasionally, the hissing of cats from the overgrown bushes could be heard; it was the perfect setting for a horror movie.However, Liana wasn't afraid. Besides caution, there was no trace of fear on her face. She followed the address and inspected the buildings one by one, and after some effort, she finally found where Veronica was located.Liana was standing under the building, and when she looked up, she saw that the lights on

    "A girl from abroad, probably here to travel," replied the manager. "In that case, she'll definitely need a good tour guide." The man straightened his suit in an obvious manner and eagerly rushed out.The manager shook his head but didn't intervene. Women from out of town often fell prey to the town's men, and many of them considered themselves lucky to have experienced a foreign affair, when in reality, all these men were seasoned hunters, and their prizes were just women.If the girl didn't resist temptation, she would have a lot to lose. However, Carl wasn't concerned about the girl who had just left because she seemed entirely capable of taking care of herself.Liana walked for a while before realizing someone was following her. She saw a dark alley and entered it directly. The man behind her laughed cheerfully and quickened his pace.In the alley, Liana was soon cornered by the man. Initially, the man had intended to follow her for a while longer, but he knew this alley like the

    Armed with a curious heart, Liana entered this small, old-looking hotel. Sitting behind the antique counter was a middle-aged man tallying the accounts. He was thin, and though the shirt he wore was outdated, it was of a certain luxury, and there was a calculating glint in his eyes. Liana could tell, with just a glance, that he was the hotel manager.The manager saw her, and his gaze swiftly traversed her entire body. He then stood up with a smile to inquire."Accommodation?""Yes, give me your best room," Liana said as she handed him her temporary identity, as she had acquired temporary residence in the country and didn't need to carry her passport.The manager accepted her identity and studied it. He asked with a smile, "Where are you from? It says here that you're not from this country.""The United States," Liana replied in an emotionless tone. Normally, others wouldn't have pressed further, but the manager typed her information unhurriedly and continued to ask."Are you here to t

    "This is her," Lilith handed them a photo and introduced, "Her name is Veronica, and she lived in Darlin, here in the United States, and was murdered in a homicide case ten years ago, and the killer gruesomely dismembered her body, but they never found the body, and what you need to do is to find the killer or desecrate her body. I've also compiled all the information I could find about her, so you can take a look now."Lilith then opened her laptop to show the information about Veronica. Liana and Edward thought Veronica would have a complicated background, but to their surprise, she was a simple and ordinary woman, and the only noteworthy thing was that she was raped and gave birth to a child. However, her child was stolen from her, and she fell into depression, barely surviving on the streets.Nevertheless, misfortune did not leave her life.When she was 30, she was brutally murdered, and the case remains unsolved to this day. Nobody knew who the killer was or what the motive was.

    At that time, I foresaw something and chose to settle there. I conducted at least ten years of research and reached a bottleneck. Similarly, I was afraid that Walter Roberts would notice our scent, so I brought them with me when I left," Lilith recounted in a distant tone, and Liana and Edward still had difficulty understanding her, but they knew she was talking about Gabbe's parents.Unfortunately, they all perished during various experiments, news that caused Gabbe to withdraw for a long period of time. Only Lilith survived. Liana understood that her mother was not a coward. She also participated in these dangerous experiments and survived, probably due to luck and ability.However, they still hadn't achieved what she foresaw. Could it be the apocalypse? Liana asked the question, and Lilith nodded."Yes, I foresaw the apocalypse, and it will happen soon. But don't wo

    "What will make you stop?""I don't need anything," the man smiled indulgently."You must have something you desire," Lilith turned to look at him. "Tell me what it is, maybe I can fulfill your wish.""I'm honored to hear that from you. I'm glad I had this conversation with you today, and thank you for allowing me to be in the presence of the brightest person in the world," the man raised his eyebrow slightly.Lilith understood what he meant.He didn't need anything; he simply enjoyed talking to her.He was wrapping up the conversation, and no one would stop his plan, not even her.However, no matter how dark he was, he was still a man.If he were a man, he would be prone to regrets and ideals, and Lilith believed that he, as an individual, was more than just a rush to destroy the world.Lilith's calm eyes gazed into his, and her voice was low but sounded like heavenly music in his ears."Think carefully, what is still buried deep in your heart? Destroying the world is easy, but can y

    "You used the memory cells?" Lilith's gaze scanned her entire body, and she immediately realized the truth."You are definitely the brightest woman there is, I'm very impressed," the man clapped his hands together as he spoke."Do you need something from me?" Lilith wasn't surprised, nor did she show any visible reaction to his easy admission; she simply asked in a soft tone."Of course, I overheard everything just now. If you don't mind, I believe we can have an interesting conversation," the man said in a friendly tone."Okay," Lilith nodded, and the mysterious man smiled and extended his hand."Please!" Lilith followed him without hesitation. They entered another room, and the difference from Walter Roberts' room was that this one was larger and more luxurious. It was the chief secretary's office, and there was a photo of him on the desk. However, compared to the man in front of Lilith, the man in the photo appeared refined and exuded a kindness cultivated by age. The man before h
