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
Amelia didn't know what was going through Ember's mind. So, she was unaware that what Hannah said instantly worsened Ember's impression of her. "Hannie, what are you trying to say?" Upon hearing Ember's question, Hannah's eyes flashed with a hint of delight. It was good that someone was willing to engage with her. Liam might be upset if she were the one who mentioned it."Auntie, since Liam is out of danger, Amelia might not always need to stay here. There will be nurses looking after him, and you can come occasionally." "After all, Liam invested in the production. It would be a waste if Amelia couldn't make it. Besides, the crew is behind schedule, and Amelia's absence would greatly affect the timing. "It might be better for Amelia to return to the set. Otherwise, Liam would also feel bad if you're constantly worried about the production."Although Hannah put it that way, Ember thought Amelia would be distracted from caring for Liam if her mind was elsewhere. She also fe
Amelia was puzzled as to why both Ember and Hannah insisted on her returning to the set. However, she couldn't refute Ember. She had always been tolerant toward Ember, so she didn't know what to say. But she couldn't leave, so she turned to Liam for help.Liam received her cue this time. He frowned slightly and said, "Mom, Lia is my wife, and it would be more convenient for her to take care of me here." "I can take care of you, too!" It was very convenient for Ember. But before she could finish her sentence, Liam awkwardly interrupted, "I just had surgery, and it hasn't fully healed yet. "The doctor said I can't leave bed now, or it might reopen. I can't get out of bed alone, and many things are inconvenient. "I need someone to take care of me round the clock." As Liam spoke, Ember also realized the situation. She fell silent.Although she was Liam's mother, she couldn't help him bathe or assist him in the bathroom. She thought about it and decided not to say an
