"Are you okay, Ms. Nacht?" Liam asked, the picture of chivalry.

Holly, caught off guard by the collision and the subsequent realization that she had been in Liam's arms, blushed fiercely and retreated several steps. She touched her hair nervously, trying to hide her embarrassment. "Ah... I... I'm fine," she managed to say, her voice faltering. Her cheeks were then the color of ripe apples as she scurried away from Liam.

Watching Holly's flustered exit, Liam shook his head with a wry smile. "This girl," he muttered to himself.

Back at his desk with time to kill, Liam pulled out his phone and started scrolling through the latest viral videos, chuckling at the absurdity. Before he knew it, the clock struck past four. The emergency meeting that had convened the department heads earlier had wrapped up, and one by one, the managers emerged from the conference room, their faces etched with concern and haste.

The marketing department was thick with tension as the managers returned to their

    Liam had some inkling of the project's significance, and he was well aware of the blood, sweat, and tears Sunniva had poured into it.Lost in thought, his reverie was broken by Thora's boss stepping in."Mr. Cole, the boss is back—I've got to run."With that, Thora scooped up the papers from her desk and scurried back to her workstation.After a moment's deliberation, Liam decided to lend Sunniva a helping hand. No sooner had the thought crossed his mind than he grabbed his phone and ducked into the restroom.He dialed Kolten and laid out the Bristow Group's dire straits. Kolten, on the other end, grasped the gravity of the situation immediately.Kolten asked with a polite tone, "Mr. Cole, could you clarify what you mean?"Liam gave a nonchalant hum and said, "Take a look and handle it for me, will you? Put some investment into the Bristow Group over in Drunham City.""Sure thing, I'll get on it right away," Kolten replied with a nod.After ending the call, Liam stepped out

    Liam's eyebrows were tightly furrowed. He immediately figured out what was going on as soon as he turned back and glanced at the living room.Since he did not set an appointment with Joseph, then there could only be one possibility—someone was impersonating Mr. Miller and contacted Celena.Celena had been tricked.Once Joseph realized what was going on, he quickly said over the phone, "Someone must be impersonating you and got in contact with your wife. Don't worry. I'll go find out what's going on right away.""Mmhmm. You have to hurry!" Liam hung up the call upon saying that. His expression darkened, and his gaze was bone-chilling. Who the hell had the audacity to trick Celena by impersonating him?Right as Liam was still trying to guess who it was who pretended to be him, Celena suddenly knocked on the door and urged, "Liam, are you ready?"Liam put away his phone, quickly got changed, and replied, "I'll be done soon. I'm putting on my clothes."Liam got dressed in an insta

    Celena was confused after she saw the way Liam looked. She had a feeling that there was something off with him, so she asked, "What's the matter? Why did you ask? What's the problem?"Liam softened his frosty gaze, shaking his head with a smile, and said, "It's nothing. I was just asking because I was a little curious. Celena, do you not feel that something is off? Would there be something wrong with this Mr. Miller?""Something wrong?" Celena was dazed as she heard that. Then, she shook her head with a smile and said, "Aren't you overthinking it? What could go wrong? Could someone have the guts to impersonate Mr. Miller?""What's so impossible about that? What if Mr. Miller is really a fake?" Liam asked.Celena was taken aback, her smile stiffened as well. It took her a few seconds before she regained her senses. She glared at Liam with a frown and barked, "Liam, what the hell are you talking about? I told you a long time ago that I wanted to treat Mr. Miller to dinner to thank hi

    Celena saw from the corner of her eyes that Liam was still sitting, so she quickly tugged at his arm. Turning her head to Liam, she whispered softly, "Liam, Mr. Miller is here. Hurry up and get up to greet him."It was only then that Liam reluctantly got up and greeted Mr. Miller with a fake smile. Then, he stood quietly next to Celena.Mr. Miller nodded at Celena arrogantly. His gaze got even frostier when it landed on Liam, and he said icily, "So this is the restaurant you chose, Ms. Stone? Isn't this room too…shabby? You know who I am. I've never dined at a place like this before."Upon saying that, Mr. Miller waved his hand in front of his nose with great disgust. It was as if the air in the room was incredibly stinky.Celena was already worrying that the restaurant she chose was too shabby. After she heard Mr. Miller's comment, her face reddened, and she looked extremely embarrassed and nervous.Celena hung her head and said, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Miller. It's my fault for n

    The fake Mr. Miller sat in the center seat with great arrogance. His eyes under the mask were filled with lust as he looked at Celena. However, his gaze quickly turned cold when he looked at Liam. Then, he said icily, "Ms. Stone, you haven't introduced him. This is?"It was only then Celena realized it. She quickly got up and said, "I'm sorry for that. Let me introduce him to you. This is my husband, Liam Cole. He knew that you've helped me and taken care of me in the past. That's why he came along today. He wants to thank you in person."As soon as the fake Mr. Miller heard that Liam was Celena's husband, his gaze quickly turned frosty. He surveyed Liam disdainfully and sneered. "So this is your husband, Ms. Stone. He doesn't look like much."He looked at Celena again and continued, "Ms. Stone, I thought it was just going to be the two of us tonight. I didn't think you would bring someone else. You didn't even tell me beforehand. I don't meet just anybody."The mood in the room in

    Celena had vodka with a medium alcohol concentration in her glass. It was not a big glass, but as soon she chugged it, her face became flushed.Celena's lips were slightly apart. Perhaps it was because the vodka was burning a little. Without realizing it, she was fanning her mouth, sticking her tongue out a little. Her cheeks were rosy because of the alcohol, making her look incredibly adorable.The fake Mr. Miller's gaze was filled with desire and possessiveness as he looked at the way Celena looked. At the same time, he felt Liam, who was sitting next to Celena, was a great eyesore.What a pity that a beautiful woman like Celena was with such a useless man.The fake Mr. Miller looked at Liam frostily. Suddenly, his eyes lit up as if something had crossed his mind. Then, he said indifferently, "Ms. Stone, didn't you say your husband wanted to thank me in person? He doesn't look like he wants to thank me at all. Does he not even want to raise a toast to me?"Celena quickly put dow

    Seeing that Mr. Miller's expression got increasingly colder made Celena even more anxious. She raised her voice and barked, "Liam, what are you waiting for? Get up now and apologize to Mr. Miller!"Celena was so anxious that her face was completely flushed. She simply could not understand why Liam did that. She had told him that Mr. Miller had helped her, yet Liam still acted so rudely. Besides, did Liam not know who Mr. Miller was?Mr. Miller was a big shot that they could not afford to offend at all. The Stone Group and Mr. Miller were having a collaboration. What if Mr. Miller were to call off the collaboration in a fit of anger? Celena did not even dare to think about the consequences of that at all.Celena tugged at Liam's arm and kept sending him signals with her eyes. "I'm sorry, Mr. Miller. Don't be angry. I'll make him apologize to you right now."Looking at the angry glares from bodyguards, Liam patted Celena's hand gently, telling her to keep calm. However, Celena did no

    Celena quickly said, "Thank you. Thank you so much, Mr. Miller.""Hold on. Don't thank me yet. I'm not done talking." The fake Mr. Miller cut Celena off.He stared at Liam frostily and said, "I can forgive him for being rude, but I want your husband to apologize to me on his knees right now and admit that he was wrong. I'll forgive him, then. Otherwise, I'll just cancel the collaboration with the Stone Group right away. I'll also make it known that your company has offended me, and anybody who dares to work with you guys in the future would be crossing me!"His words hit Celena like a bombshell. He wanted to cancel the collaboration with the Stone Group and tell the others that they had offended him! What was the difference between doing that and getting the Stone family blacklisted?Celena was stunned. It took her quite a while to regain her senses. Her face was covered in fear as she said anxiously, "I'm sorry, Mr. Miller. I'm really sorry. It's my fault for not thinking it throu

    What would Liam do if he found out Prince Faber had captured his wife? Surely he would not hesitate to turn the entire city upside down to look for her?Prince Faber was more than familiar with Liam's fierce loyalty and could not help but begin to worry at the prospect of having to face his wrath. He stared at Keyon's leering face and asked with belated realization, "Mr. Yeager, you ordered me to capture all those people from the Drunham City Connoisseurs, but the truth is, your sole target has always been Liam's wife. Is that right?"Keyon nodded, smiling. "That's right. We could care less about those businessmen. All we wanted was to get our hands on Celena Stone!"I must admit I was very surprised when I found out that Celena Stone is the wife of the great King Pendragon. Not only that, but I made an even more shocking discovery—it turns out that Liam is none other than the lone survivor of the Cole family, the noble clan who were allegedly wiped out seven years ago!"The ment

    After a few moments' hesitation, he finally decided to shoot his shot. "Mr. Yeager, there is something I don't understand. Why did the Yeagers order these businessmen's capture? I've looked into their backgrounds, and they are all honest businessmen who have not broken the law before. If the media catches wind of this, they will surely accuse me of abusing my power…"This was what Prince Faber had been worried about. He had already investigated the people whom the Yeagers ordered to be captured and did not understand why the Yeagers wanted them imprisoned. They were all civilians who had not committed any crime, and he dared not even imagine the consequences if the public found out he had ordered the incarceration of innocent citizens.Keyon understood immediately Prince Faber's concern. He smiled and replied in a reassuring tone, "Worry not, Prince Faber. We Yeagers have taken care of everything. We have made absolutely sure to cover up all your tracks, and no one will know you were

    Meanwhile, Celena and the group were taken out of the hotel and shoved forcefully into a couple of jeeps waiting at the entrance. They were whisked away to a nearby military base. Before they could even get their bearings straight, they found themselves being tossed into holding cells. Celena, on the other hand, was taken separately to a small, dark room, illuminated only by the barest sliver of light that peeped in through a tiny window. The room was entirely empty, save for a metal bed frame. A sour stench hung in the air, and it was clear this room had been abandoned for a very long time. A soldier shoved Celena roughly into the room, and before she could realize what was happening, the soldier slammed the door shut.The soldier had pushed Celena so hard that she fell onto the ground, but upon seeing that her captor was about to leave, she leaped to her feet and sprinted over to the door. "Sir, can you tell me what I did wrong? Can you please have mercy on me? Can you at least

    Tristan seemed just as baffled as they were. He returned their puzzled gazes with an equally perplexed one of his own. "I… I have no idea…"The general glanced sharply in their direction, then gestured to his soldiers and declared sternly, "Take them away!"His soldiers obliged and stepped forward to restrain the members of the Drunham City Connoisseurs, who all shrieked in alarm, "Why are you taking us away?""General, what did we do wrong? We didn't do anything illegal, so why are you arresting us?""Mr. Xander, save us! They've got this all wrong!""What's going on here? Why are they arresting only us?"Celena's entire body was shaking like a leaf. She eyed the soldiers around her and asked, stammering, "General, what did we do wrong? Why are we being captured? Where are you taking us?"Tristan, stricken with panic, shoved a soldier aside and shouted at the general, "General, I'm the president of the Drunham City Connoisseurs, and I want to know why we're being taken away.

    Celena was utterly terrified by the sudden turn of events. She stared pale-faced at the soldiers around her, not daring to move even a muscle. What was going on?All of a sudden, a man in a uniform stepped into the room. The badge on his shoulder indicated to everyone that he was a general. The heavy thumping of his boots echoed through the silent room with every step he took. All eyes were on him as he stepped onto the stage.He carried himself with great authority, and clearly, this man was not one to be messed with. He scanned the room as if searching for someone. Finally, he announced in a deep, resounding voice, "Do not fear, ladies and gentlemen. We are here on a routine check after receiving a tip-off regarding your conference. We will release you all once we have carried out our investigation, and the process will be quicker and smoother if you all cooperate. "Now, I would kindly request you get your documentation ready so that my men may confirm your identity."Everyone

    Derek nodded earnestly and replied, "Of course it's true. My sources have never failed me. I wouldn't have trusted you with this information if I didn't think you'd be interested."Celena stared at him for a moment, then turned to glance in the direction of the people he had pointed. She could not help but be tempted by the offer. She considered this for a few moments, then accepted his offer. "Alright then, Mr. Duncan. I'll go with you. Thank you for inviting me."The smile on Derek's face widened. He could hardly believe his luck—Celena had agreed to go with him! Taking that first step was always the hardest, but he had done it!Unbeknownst to Celena, Derek already knew her long before their first meeting at the conference. Her name was known far and wide in Drunham City, not least because of her beauty, but because of her—in the eyes of the public—tragic marriage. Celena had earned herself a reputation as one of the most beautiful women Drunham City had ever seen, and although

    The attention they received, however, was large due to Celena and her young, handsome companion, who was a man named Derek Duncan. Their attractive looks, both individually and combined, were easily the topic of discussion that night. Everyone who laid eyes on them admired both their good looks and brains, for certainly only the cream of the crop were allowed to attend this prestigious event. What made this feat even more impressive was the fact that they were both so young!Aside from her beauty, Celena's name was already known far and wide in the business world, not just because of her strong leadership but due to her association with Liam and her company's connections with many international corporations. She had started her business from scratch, but within a few short months, she had single handedly built it up to become one of the top ten grossing companies in Drunham City.There were hundreds of people gathered there tonight, and their seats had been allocated according to t

    The moment Clifford left, Kastor turned to Liam with a wide grin, all hint of his hostility now gone. "Mr. Cole, thank God I arrived just in time."He raised his brows as he said this, and Liam took this to mean he was trying to claim credit. Truth be told, he would have been able to handle things on his own even without Kastor's help, but he decided this was a detail Kastor did not need to know. Instead, he returned Kastor's smile graciously. Kastor, like a child, burst into laughter at this. No further words were exchanged, but they understood the message nonetheless.Jeffrey also grinned. "Kastor, what brings you here all of a sudden?"Kastor replied, "Ah, you might not know this, Mr. Stein, but I actually own this very restaurant that you're sitting in right now. One of my employees called me for help, citing that a brawl was about to break out, so I rushed over immediately. I had no idea it would turn out to be you and Mr. Cole!""Ah, what a pleasant surprise, then!" Jeffrey

    Clifford scowled upon hearing this. He cracked his knuckles menacingly as he stared at Kastor through narrowed eyes.Kastor did not seem at all intimidated by this. Instead, he brushed past him and approached Liam, smiling. "Mr. Cole, I apologize for the delay. I rushed over as soon as I heard the news, but I was late anyway. I'm so sorry for the wait."Liam's expression eased up slightly. He tugged the corners of his mouth into a strained smile but did not reply. Clifford's expression turned even more sour when he sensed Kastor's tone. He asked sharply, "What is the meaning of this, Kastor? Are you intent on making me your enemy?"Clifford's reputation was known far and wide, and many feared him, but Kastor was not one of them. He shot Clifford a look of utmost disdain and replied, smirking, "Yes, Clifford, that's exactly what I'm going to do. So what if we will be enemies from now on? What are you going to do about it?"He was confident that Clifford would not dare to retaliate
