Forrest and the subordinates were all stunned by the sight of so many soldiers who suddenly appeared.What the hell was going on? Why were there so many soldiers?While everybody watched in shock, Calum cut through the crowd with two soldiers and came straight to Liam. He was incredibly respectful as he bowed his head and whispered to Liam.Liam nodded and replied, "Alright. Take all of them away."Calum then detained Forrest, Zane, and all of the others and brought them into the military trucks.Soon, all the people at the entrance to the hotel were taken away. The mess on the floor was cleaned up at the speed of lightning as well. Everybody was gone within three minutes.Even though the entrance was cleaned up, it was still in a mess. A dense bloody stench was still lingering in the air.It was after everybody was gone that Sunniva let out a big sigh of relief and looked at Liam with a complicated gaze.Liam knew that Sunniva was frightened by what happened that night, so he
It was already very late after Liam left the hotel, so he hailed a cab and returned home.After he got home, he realized Celena already had dinner prepared, and both Celena and Jovie were waiting for him on the couch to have dinner with him.Seeing both of them playing on the couch and also the delicious food on the table made Liam feel warm and fuzzy inside.It was a long time since he felt he had a family ever since the Cole family was destroyed. All the warmth he felt at that moment was brought to him by Celena and Jovie, and he felt incredibly happy.Jovie waited for Liam, glancing outside the door from time to time. Once she saw that Liam returned, she immediately ran up to him with excitement, jumping into his arms with a big grin.In an adorable voice, Jovie said, "Daddy, you're finally back! I've missed you so much!"Liam smiled gently and carried Jovie in his arms. Looking at Jovie's adorable face, he kissed her on the cheek."I missed you very much too, Jovie. That's w
Liam was feeling incredibly nervous. Seeing Celena so upset made him panic. He immediately put Jovie down and explained anxiously, "Celena, I-I didn't. I didn't cheat on you. It's an accident that the smell of the perfume rubbed off on me by accident."I attended a dinner with Ms. Bristow today. I took her back to her hotel after dinner and came home after walking her to the door to her room. Believe me. I swear I didn't do anything. Don't be angry, alright."Seeing Liam in this state amused Celena. She had a long face but could not hold herself back anymore. Covering her mouth as she snickered, she said, "Alright. Calm down. I believe you. Hurry up and wash your hands. Let's have dinner. The food is all cold now."Celena walked toward the dining table smiling and served up a bowl of soup for Liam. Realizing that he was standing in place, she frowned and pretended to be angry, saying, "What are you still waiting for? Are you not going to have dinner?"Jovie covered her mouth and ch
Celena quickly shook her head and said, "No need for that. I just wanted to ask if you're free to watch Jovie at home. I think Cheryl just wanted me to pick out a dress with her."Liam said nothing else. He could tell that Celena was not in a good mood. She looked disappointed.Celena hid it very well, but Liam could still tell what was on her mind at a glance.She suffered too much for him, but she never talked about it. She simply kept it all to herself and consoled herself at every turn instead.Her disappointment and the way she held it all back made Liam feel heartbroken. He swore to himself that he had to be good to Celena in the future.Then, he pretended that everything was fine, put some salad on Celena's plate with a smile, and said, "Alright. I'll let you go with her tomorrow then. You can take the chance to check it out and see if there's any wedding dress that you like. You can pick one out yourself or give me a call and I'll come over to pick one out with you."Cele
Celena quickly pulled her hands out of Liam's palm. She pretended to be angry and glared at Liam before she said, "Hurry up and eat."Not only was her glare not frightening, but the bashful gaze made her look extra alluring. Liam gulped in silence after he saw that. He knew Celena was feeling shy, so he did not dare to say anything else anymore. Otherwise, she might just stop having her dinner.The family of three finished their dinner while love was in the air. After dinner, Celena helped Jovie take a bath while Liam said he was going for a smile in the yard. However, he called Calum instead after he got to the yard."Look for the most famous bridal boutique in the world and prepare the most precious and unique wedding dress for Celena. I want her to wear the prettiest wedding dress on the twenty-eighth as she marries me with blessings from the entire nation."Mmhmm. Alright. Do as you see fit. Call me immediately if there's any problem," said Liam. Calum was not shocked at al
Liam simply thought that his wife was incredibly beautiful.Liam kept staring at Celena with a burning gaze until she went into the room. It was only then he reluctantly looked away.…Celena received a call from Cheryl early in the morning the following day. She grabbed a few quick bites for breakfast before she hopped on a cab and got to the Bridal District, a place famous for bridal wear in Drunham City.All the well-known bridal boutiques were there. That was why any bride who was wedding dress shopping would choose to come to this place.The windows on either side of the street were filled with gorgeous and delicate wedding dresses. Of course, they were not cheap. The cheapest dress there would cost thousands of dollars.At that moment, Cheryl was standing at the door to the most luxurious bridal shop. She was wearing a haute couture dress with a pair of sunglasses, standing in front of the shop cockily with her arms crossed in front of her.Cheryl knew how to dress herself
Celena's and Cheryl's gaze was attracted by the beautiful and luxurious chandelier, and they could not help but exclaim, "Wow! It's so pretty!"Cheryl thought it was beautiful too, but Celena was the first to say it out loud. Cheryl then looked at Celena with disdain and said, "What's the big deal? Have you never been to such a luxurious store before? How embarrassing."Celena felt wronged, but she said nothing. She simply followed behind Cheryl quietly without uttering another word again.Right at that moment, two women in a black uniform walked over. They were both tall, had the same hairstyle, and had gorgeous makeup on.They were all smiles as they walked up to Celena and Cheryl and said gently, "Welcome. May I know if you're here to pick out a wedding dress?"Both the women were very observant. As soon as Cheryl and Celena walked in, they could tell that Cheryl was the one who was picking out a dress that day. They just assumed Celena was Cheryl's assistant, so they directed
Cheryl sneered upon making that remark and let the matter go without obsessing over it. She simply turned her head to look at the three wedding dresses the saleswomen laid out.The saleswoman found the right moment and gave Cheryl an introduction. She said, "Take a look at these few dresses, Ms. Stone. They are from the latest collection we have. It's all designed and made by the famous designer, Harper Lene.""What? Harper Lene? Is that the designer that received the top prize for wedding dress design in Biskeland?" Cheryl exclaimed as soon as she heard the name of the designer.Her eyes were filled with excitement and enthusiasm as she looked at the three dresses laid out in front of her.The saleswoman was not surprised by Cheryl's reaction at all. She was still smiling, but there was a hint of pride in her tone as she nodded and said, "That's right. All three of these dresses are designed by that designer."She gestured at the dresses as she spoke.Celena, who stood at the si
