Amelia was taken aback upon hearing this.

What did they mean?

As she had thought, Ava's miscarriage was not an accident. But Ava wasn't the one who caused it, so who was it?

"Who's there?"

Liam's voice was cold as he stepped forward quickly.

Amelia instinctively tried to leave, but Liam quickly caught her.

She turned to look at him. Her face was filled with anxiety, and her eyes glistened with tears.

"Lia!"

Liam was shocked to see that Amelia was the one outside.

He smiled and said, "Let's eat if you're done filming!"

At that moment, Ava emerged, casting a complicated glance at Amelia.

"Mr. Prescott and I were just talking, Ms. Jenson. There's no ... Please don't misunderstand. I'm not in contact with him in any way now.

"The director assumed I was connected to Mr. Prescott and allowed me to join the cast. He didn't do anything."

Amelia nodded silently.

Ava was about to say something more, but Liam interrupted coldly, "Are you done?"

She glanced at him an

    "Lia, you have to believe me. I am your husband. I will never hurt you," Liam said. Seeing Amelia's lack of response, he recalled his past actions and added, "I know I didn't do well before, but now I've been learning to treat you better." Amelia nodded, "I know."His change during this period was indeed significant. Even Alex, who had only come to their home once, could confirm. After their discussion, whenever Amelia saw Ava, she acted as if she didn't exist. They had little interaction; if something needed to be said, it was conveyed through assistants. This left Ava in distress for a while. That day, Ava openly spoke on Liam's behalf. But in reality, upon closer consideration, she also had thoughts of sowing discord. However, it seemed that Amelia was not affected, and Ava wasn't sure if it was because Amelia didn't understand or Liam had appeased her. Liam hadn't been to the set for a while, and Ava was getting anxious. She would finish filming soon, and he had ye

    "I heard that Ms. Jenson suffered a burn recently." Before Liam could speak, Ava interjected.Amelia didn't know what was going on in Liam's mind. But as Ava spoke, Liam turned to look at her. Both of them recalled that incident, and Amelia froze. He pulled her closer. "Don't worry, I'm here." "What do you have to do with that?" Liam asked Ava brashly.Ava hurriedly shook her head. "No, I have nothing to do with it. I love you so much; how could I ever hurt you?" Her words didn't manage to please Liam. "You should be grateful I'm giving you a chance. Don't beat around the bush! It's pointless!"Upon hearing his cold words, Ava turned pale and gritted her teeth. "I have nothing to do with it, but I've been concerned about it ever since I heard. Just the other day, I heard something related to it." Liam grew impatient. "What is it, then?" Amelia glanced at him, unsure why he was suddenly so impatient."You have power and influence. It shouldn't be difficult for you

    After hearing Ava's words, Amelia widened her eyes and looked at Liam. Her face was filled with disbelief. Liam's expression turned grim. He seemed unaware of Amelia's gaze as he glared at Ava. "Do you even know what you're saying?" Ava shrank back, then stuttered, "I— This is what I overheard that woman. She … she said that. "I knew you wouldn't believe me. That's why I said I have no evidence." Perhaps out of fear, she asked Amelia, "Ms. Jenson, I ... I'm telling the truth. Do you believe me?"Amelia glanced at Liam and said, "I hope nobody else knows about this matter." She nodded hastily, "I won't tell anyone." "Then I ... " She cautiously asked, regretting that she had shared this with Liam. She shouldn't have. Liam seemed quite defensive of that person, as his expression changed when she mentioned the person. Perhaps she had been presumptuous, considering Liam's recent attitude towards Amelia. She thought he genuinely cared for Amelia, so she spoke out bu

    Late at night, while Amelia had already fallen asleep, Liam remained wide awake. He glanced at the woman lying beside him. She wasn't wearing any makeup, yet she looked delicate and enchanting. His heart seemed to skip a beat and hung in suspense. Lost in thought, he stared at Amelia for a while before suddenly getting up and heading to the study. "Gio, about the incident when Lia got injured at the restaurant last time … Continue digging into it. Today, Ava mentioned something. Follow up on this lead, too." He conveyed Ava's information to Gio over the phone. After hanging up, he continued contemplating that matter. When Amelia was in the hospital, he had Gio investigate. They did find out at the time that the assailant was one of Ava's fans who was mentally unstable.He had suspicions then that the fan might have been incited by Ava. But to his understanding, Ava would never lay a hand on him. Moreover, he had people investigate. Since Ava's miscarriage and their bre

    A moment of chaos ensued as they helped Liam into the car. She stood by, her face drained of any color. Liam gently touched her face, reassuring her with a smile. "It's okay. There's no need to be afraid!" Amelia couldn't hold back her tears as blood continued to gush from his abdomen. "You ... you're still bleeding. You knew it was a real sword. Why did you … "She had never known one person could bleed so much. Now that she did, a chilling fear overtook her, causing her to tremble. Upon hearing the news, Ember rushed to the hospital and immediately gave Amelia a slap. "You jinx, it's all because of you that Liam was injured! You should have stayed at home instead of filming. Why do you have to create so much trouble!" Just when Ember's attitude towards Amelia had softened slightly, this incident plunged Amelia into deep trouble. Amelia didn't argue with Ember. After receiving the slap, she stood guard outside the operating room. Ember stopped fussing, perhaps havin

    After the nurse left, Amelia looked at Liam in the hospital bed, wanting to touch him, but then heard Ember's voice. "Liam!" Amelia withdrew her hand, stood up, and made way for Ember. As Ember sat on the bed, seeing that Liam still hadn't awakened, she shed a few tears. Unable to bear it, James whispered, "Alright, didn't the doctor say he's out of danger? Stop crying!" "What are you saying? Liam is still lying in that bed. You don't care about Liam anymore because you have another son, right?" After holding in her emotions for a long time, Ember finally lost control upon hearing this.Her words shocked Ember, and she widened her eyes. He had another son? What does this mean? Was it about Liam's brother? But didn't Liam's brother pass away?Amelia recalled when she heard someone speculate that Liam might have caused the death of his brother. James widened his eyes, looking upset. "Ember, what nonsense are you talking about? Liam is my son. How could I not care abou

    Amelia didn't know that James left shortly after she did. "Alright, you, James! You just wait. As long as I'm here, don't think you can fight for anything on behalf of that wild seed!" Ember was furious as she watched James leave without hesitation, not even waiting for Liam to wake up. She spoke sharply, wanting to check on Liam's condition. Surprisingly, she was met with his eyes wide open. They were bright but devoid of any warmth.Initially startled, Ember's expression turned to delight. "Liam, you're finally awake!" She then rushed out to call the doctor. Lying in bed, Liam stared at the ceiling blankly. Even when the doctor came to check on him, his expression remained unchanged. Seeing him like this, Ember felt somewhat concerned. "Liam, tell me if you're uncomfortable anywhere!" Listening to her worried voice, Liam finally came back to himself. "It's nothing, just the pain from my stomach wound." He had heard everything that happened in the ward just now.

    The next day, Ember looked sullen when she came over. Amelia was about to ask her when she heard a woman's voice. "Liam, I heard you were injured. Are you okay now?" Amelia watched the woman in a pink down jacket run in from behind Ember and rushed to Liam's bedside, clutching his hand as she cried in anxiety and concern. Amelia opened her mouth to say something but fell silent. No wonder Ember looked upset. It was because of Hannah.Ember glared at Amelia, seeing she was standing by and not pulling Hannah away. Amelia averted her gaze, pretending not to notice her. Liam and Hannah had a special relationship. She was just here to show concern, and Amelia couldn't possibly prevent that, right? Finally, Ember seemed unable to bear it. But still, while trying to maintain politeness, she smiled and said, "Hannah, Liam hasn't fully recovered yet. It's not good for him if you get too close and press on his wound.""Yes, I was too concerned about Liam and didn't consider t

    After returning home, Eric's mood remained gloomy.Hannah opened a bottle of wine and poured a glass for him. "Want some?"Eric glanced at her, took the glass, and gulped it down in one go.Hannah then quickly refilled his glass, and Eric drank everything again.Hannah chuckled lightly as she poured the wine for him. "Although drinking is bad for you, sometimes, it can be a way to drown your sorrows. But don't overdo it.""Why should I be sorrowful? What do I have to be sorrowful for?" Eric mocked himself and finished the wine in his glass. He then grabbed the bottle and poured himself another glass.As Hannah watched him, she couldn't help but say, "You indeed have nothing to be sorrowful about. You're quite fortunate compared to many ordinary people. "Take me, for example. I had to marry someone who doesn't love me just to survive. Even the parents I'd known for over 20 years were not really my parents."Eric smirked. "That was of your own doing. You insisted on marrying me

    Alex was resting on the bed when her phone rang.Seeing the name on the screen, she hesitated for a moment before answering."Have you made up your mind? When are you going to the hospital?"Hearing this, Alex chuckled. "I thought you called to say that you regretted your words. So, you just want to remind me to go to the hospital."Eric's voice was calm and distant as he said, "Delaying it will only harm you.""Yeah, that's why I've already gone to the hospital," Alex replied.Eric paused, seemingly surprised by her swift action. "Why didn't you call me? I could've accompanied you."Alex scoffed. "Since you don't care about me or the baby in my belly, why bother going to the hospital with me? Don't worry, even if I die on the operating table during the abortion, it's my own fault."Eric frowned. "You know I didn't mean that.""Yes, I know. You just said it out of guilt.

    After the banquet, Liam drove Amelia home."Thanks for helping me today," Amelia said.This was the first time they were together alone since they'd met the shy man.Liam smirked. "You don't have to thank me. I just spoke the truth and defended my own marriage."Amelia frowned. "What do you mean?""I meant exactly that!""Stop the car and explain yourself!"Liam then parked the car as instructed. Then, Amelia spoke seriously, "We've already divorced, but now you're saying that we're still married. What do you mean exactly?"Liam smiled. "Of course, it means that we're still husband and wife. What else could it be?""You!" Amelia was frustrated. "Can you speak plainly?"What exactly did Liam mean? Amelia was confused.Other people might not know, but Amelia was aware that they were divorced.

    Amelia didn't think Karen would act so quickly, and she found it difficult to refuse her after looking at her warm gaze."Mr. Prescott, the Lancasters have prepared a banquet to welcome Madam into the family. And they've invited many people, including some previous partners of the Lancaster Group and some members of the Prescotts. "However, we still haven't received an invitation. Do you think…" Gio was reporting to Liam about Amelia in the office.Liam snorted. "The Lancasters must have other intentions to organize the banquet. If they still want me to spare them and Leona, they shouldn't use this method to corner me. They're being so public about things and are putting so much effort into this banquet to force me to attend it."Gio looked puzzled.Liam continued, "Charles is a cunning old man. He begged me to let go of the Lancasters. But when I disagreed, he tried to approach Lia. He never thought she would refuse too. So, he's still furious about this. He's reluctant to give

    The Lancasters' businesses had been continuously taken away, and Leona was nowhere to be found. This frustrated Charles."As expected, people who didn't grow up in this family are so unreliable. It's such a simple matter that could've been solved had she said anything about it, but she just won't help!"
