"Hah. Even so, it doesn't change the fact that she wants to be a homewrecker!" Amelia exclaimed.Moreover, Hannah wasn't innocent at all in the incident that night!"Lia, these are all our subjective views. You need to have evidence to back your claims. Without evidence, the Lancasters will never admit to it. After all, Hannah was the one who lost her innocence and child!"Of course Liam knew how obsessed Hannah was with getting married to him. When he thought of Hannah's actions now, he believed Amelia. Perhaps it was Hannah's own fault that her child was gone.But there was no evidence at all. Not just the Lancasters, but even James and Ember didn't believe that Hannah would get rid of her child.In the past, it was exactly because he behaved like this that Amelia was disappointed in him."Have you ever wondered what I said to Hannah that day, that caused this incident to happen?" Amelia asked.Liam said in a low voice, "I asked Hannah about it. She said that you misunderstood
In the end, Amelia didn't manage to meet up with Alex.Even though she had calmed down quite a lot, she was still upset with Liam. She didn't have freedom at home, so if she was still restrained even if she went out, she would rather not go out at all.She wanted to relax by meeting up with Alex, but if Liam insisted on following, she wouldn't be able to relax at all.Alex was quite sad when she heard that Amelia wasn't coming. But Amelia found something odd—Alex didn't insult Liam for not letting her go out.Instead, Alex told her to stay at home and spend quality time with Liam in case the misunderstanding got even worse.She didn't notice it before, but now that she thought about it, starting a long time ago, Alex had begun to coax her to live a happy life with Liam.For the next few days, Liam resumed his schedule of leaving early and coming home late.Every day when he came back, he would tell her about what happened at work, just like before. He would also chat about h
When Amelia saw Karen begging for Hannah's sake, she felt a little sad. But she also felt strong feelings of envy toward Hannah.Hannah was so lucky to have a mother who loved her so much.Amelia chuckled bitterly. She felt as if every time she met Karen, she would think of her mother whom she had never met. She even wished to have a mother like Karen."At the press conference, your friend said that Hannie is …. That she wanted to destroy your marriage with Liam. Your friend even said that Hannie had lost her child, but she wanted to blame it on you. Now, everyone is treating Hannie like …. She doesn't even dare to go out of the house. Compared to after that night at the banquet, her emotions are even more fragile now."Her father and I tried to salvage things and hide her, but this matter concerns you too. Liam won't allow us to cause trouble for you again. So Hannie had no choice but to accept those charges."She's just a woman. With a reputation like that, how can she find a
Karen probably didn't expect that after everything she said, Amelia would still decline so firmly.From her point of view, Amelia and Liam were already on the verge of a divorce. With the Lancasters eyeing from the side, Amelia should want to escape as soon as possible."Do you perhaps think that I didn't show enough sincerity because I simply came over here like this? Don't worry, I did bring something with me. I just thought that we wouldn't need to discuss those worldly conditions. I was planning to give it to you after we sealed the deal." As Karen spoke, she took out a check from her bag.Karen continued, "Here's five million dollars. It's our token of sincerity. If you think that's too little, feel free to ask for more."If Amelia had only lost her respect for Karen before, she was utterly disappointed now.She thought that Karen was not like the others, but now, by the looks of it, Karen wasn't much different from other people after all. So Amelia no longer treated Karen
After returning to Lancaster Residence, Karen still felt a little indignant.She didn't expect Amelia to outright decline her. She thought that she had already expressed her sincerity, and she had also analyzed the pros and cons with Amelia.Amelia should have made a choice that she was satisfied with. She even thought that Amelia would thank her for it. But reality proved otherwise.So when Charles asked her about it while Hannah too, expectantly looked at her, Karen was put in a foul mood.She said, "I've already told you that it wasn't an appropriate request, but you guys still thought that it was reasonable. You even asked me to talk to her about it. You probably thought that even if I got rejected, you wouldn't feel ashamed, right?"When Karen said that, Charles and Hannah knew that Amelia had declined their suggestion.Charles also thought that Amelia was being rude to the Lancasters and that she should have known better. But for the moment, he had to appease Karen firs
Amelia was still saddened by Karen's visit. She had no idea that after Karen went back, another storm was brewing in the Lancaster family.Liam wanted to make Amelia happy, but he didn't have any good ideas. So he had no choice but to go into the kitchen and make some of Amelia's favorite dishes.Then, after accompanying her to sleep, he went back to the study with a sullen expression.He dialed a number. "Look into the Lancasters' condition for the past few years. I don't want anything already known to the public. It'd be best if you could find out the Lancasters' accounts!"He had promised not to make enemies of the Lancasters, but he wouldn't just sit by and allow them to bully his woman either!He sat on the couch, rubbing between his eyebrows as he thought about the recent events. Suddenly, his phone rang again. Looking at the name displayed on the screen, Liam hesitated for a moment before answering the call."Liam, your actions these days have seriously disappointed me
"Hannie, Mr. Prescott is here!"Hannah was still fuming, but when she heard Mrs. Jenson's words, she immediately put on a look of elated surprise. "Is it true?""Of course. When have I ever lied to you?" Mrs. Jenson was all smiles. She was glad to see Hannah instantly smiling upon hearing that Liam was here."I'll go downstairs right now!" Hannah dashed out hurriedly. But Mrs. Jenson hastily stopped her. "You haven't put on your shoes yet!"After putting her shoes on with help from Mrs. Jenson, Hannah rushed down the stairs.As Mrs. Jenson watched Hannah go, she muttered under her breath, "She's probably going to be disappointed again. Where did she get her patience from?"At the thought of Hannah refusing to turn back even after running into a dead end, Mrs. Jenson felt her heart ache terribly.She then recalled the woman she met at the ward back then. She must've been Liam's wife. If Hannah truly was determined to do it, then she would …At that thought, Mrs. Jenson had a
"Are you threatening me?" Charles' expression instantly turned dark."I didn't want things to come to this, but Mr. Lancaster, don't you think that you're going too far these days? My wife is completely innocent in these matters. Why would you keep forcing her into a corner?"Liam recalled the mistreatment Amelia endured, and also her coldness and disappointment toward him. His heart ached for her.He had worked so hard to get Amelia to stay, but they persecuted her so much that she had almost left him again!This time, before Charles could say anything, Hannah shouted with her reddened eyes, "She killed our child! How is she innocent at all?"Liam finally looked at Hannah again, but his face was filled with disappointment."Hannie, are you very sure that Lia harmed your child, and that it wasn't a problem with your child instead? Are you sure that you're not setting her up just so that you can drive her away from me?"Hannah had a panicked look on her face as she shouted agai
