last update Last Updated: 2023-12-04 20:03:28
Everyone in the living room was overwhelmed with mixed emotions.

Charles looked furious and his gaze was filled with resentment.

James wore a regretful expression as he looked at Amelia with a complex expression.

Karen appeared heartbroken, her gaze filled with reluctance and sorrow.

Ember's expression was even more dramatic. She displayed a range of emotions—hesitation, reluctance, and disappointment, as if Amelia had betrayed her trust.

Amelia forced a bitter smile and looked at Liam. "Do you believe that I harmed her like all of them?"

Amelia looked genuinely distressed, as if burdened by an unspoken hardship.

Liam felt conflicted, but he shook his head immediately. "No, I believe you ..."

"Liam!"

A sharp cry interrupted them, and Hannah, supported by a staff, walked over. Her face was pale as she looked at Liam in hurt and disbelief.

"You believe her, but not me. You think I would abandon our child!"

Hannah looked utterly heartbroken.

"I listened to you even

    Back at Luxury Gardens, Amelia planned to return to her room but she was stopped by Liam. She looked at him coldly. "Are you in such a hurry to blame me?" Liam wanted to say something, but he felt a pang in his heart. "I didn't mean that." "Then what do you mean?" "Lia, we just reconciled not long ago. Don't look at me or think of me like that, okay?" Amelia's cold gaze, distant expression, and indifferent words made Liam feel like she was about to leave him again. It put him into turmoil.Amelia mocked with a smile. "Why bother putting on an act? We both know I'm not important to you." "No, you are! You're important to me!" Liam hugged her tightly. "Lia, believe me, I ... You must believe me." Amelia wanted to say something, but no words formed. If that were the case, why didn't Liam believe her? Why didn't he help her? At this moment, Amelia realized that what she feared wasn't the accusations and disbelief from other people, but his lack of trust and action.

    Liam explained, "I'll protect you. Nothing will happen. And Lia, I believe you wouldn't harm Hannie. But it can't be denied that Hannie's miscarriage was somehow related to you. Even though I don't know the details, your words must have deeply affected her. She cares so much about that child, she wouldn't make such a decision lightly." "So, you still think this is related to me." Amelia smiled indifferently and scoffed. "Liam, I truly pity you."Liam's face paled and he looked somewhat unpleasant. He knew comforting Amelia might make her feel upset, so he was willing to indulge and appease her. But to hear her pity him? He didn’t need her pity. "Lia, I can compromise for you, but you must also have limits. Don't try to cross my boundaries," he said. "Then tell me, what are your boundaries? Dignity?" Amelia laughed. "Well, you can only talk about dignity. But if you truly had any dignity, would the Lancaster family insult your wife in front of you? Don't be foolish. They

    A tear rolled down Amelia's cheek, and Liam suddenly returned to his senses as it trickled down his fingers. The scalding temperature made Liam uneasy. He let go of Amelia's hand, looking anxious. "Lia, I ... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you. I... " Amelia's tears and the distant, fearful look in her eyes left him completely distraught. Liam reached out to wipe away her tears, but she shrank back. The pain in his heart stung even more. "Lia, I'm sorry. Don't be afraid of me, please. I didn't mean to hurt you. Don't be scared of me!" Liam pleaded with a choked voice. Now, he genuinely wanted to punish himself for what he had done. How could he lay his hands on her? As Liam approached her step by step, Amelia retreated, saying, "Don't ... don't come any closer ..." Seeing Amelia's fear, Liam felt regret and pain. However, his red eyes made him appear even more frightening. Amelia's heart was filled with fear. Maybe Liam was right. His indulgence had made her for

    Liam watched as Amelia returned to her room. Her words echoed in his ears as he clenched his fists. The pain in Liam's chest didn't go away either. He sighed bitterly but didn't call out to Amelia. After he had landed that punch, Liam noticed that Amelia was injured. He had felt both distressed and anxious to tend to her wounds. However, when he touched her face, another thought crossed his mind. If Amelia were disfigured because of this, it would even things out with the Lancaster family. And most importantly, she could leave the entertainment industry and return to him if she got disfigured. Liam knew this idea was selfish, but it consumed him like an obsession. If Amelia stopped acting, she could stay with him all the time. He would ensure she had no chance to meet other men.If she lost her career with Astra because of her disfigurement, it would also appease the Lancaster family, and that would be punishment enough. They wouldn't hold onto this matter any longer.

    "I ..." This time, Liam also found himself at a loss for words. Amelia chuckled coldly. She could feel herself slowly becoming trapped in this situation, unable to break free. Or rather, she was unwilling to break free. "I told you before that I plan to have Hannie's amniotic fluid tested. I suspect the person who was with me that night wasn't her. I've always felt that person was you!" Amelia knew it, and she remembered Liam saying that to her. But what did it matter now? Hannah's child was gone, and there was nothing left to prove. Amelia regretted it now. She shouldn't have confronted Hannah so impulsively. If she hadn't made Hannah feel guilty, maybe she wouldn't have done this. "I'm tired. Can you please stop bothering me? If you like this room, I'll give it to you." Amelia wanted to leave, but Liam stopped her. He said, "You don't need to change rooms. I just want to be with you. I won't touch you. If you're worried, I'll return to my room later." Liam felt

    Karen's gaze fell on Hannah and it made her feel as if Karen had seen through her. Hannah pursed her lips, still somewhat unconvinced. "Anyway, I know that you all feel embarrassed because I got pregnant and he didn't want to take responsibility. You all think I brought shame unto the family. Otherwise, why would you easily let that woman leave!" Even Charles frowned at this. "What are you talking about? Your mom and I warned you not to get too close to Liam, but you wouldn't listen. If you had followed our advice, would all these things have happened?" Hannah replied, "Dad, why put all the blame on me? You just don't want to go against Mom in front of her. You don't want to upset her. Did you think you could hide that?" Hannah was not happy and she didn't want to give in to Charles. She hadn't gotten what she wanted yet."You!" Charles glared at Hannah. Then, he watched Karen carefully. Seeing that she didn't seem angry, he sighed in relief. Karen said, "Enough, it's late

    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. So what if I purposely said that? Why should I feel sad alone? I want to provoke you, to make you feel trou

    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. Plus, Oscar knew that she was just using Liam to reject him.Liam observed Amelia getting angry and toned down, saying, "Three years ago, we did sign a divorce agreement, but it didn't

    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!" Charles paced around the living room while complaining about his daughter.Meanwhile, Karen looked a little worn out as she sat on the couch. She frowned and said, "Stop pacing around. You're making me dizzy!"Charles glanced at her. "I'm just too worried. If the company doesn't get new orders, we won't be able to pay salaries, and we'll lose our employees. If that really happens, the company will go bankrupt!"Despite the urgency of the situation, he still listened to Karen and sat across from her.Hannah looked at the anxious Charles and sneered, saying, "Dad, don't you understand?
