"Oh, it's here!" Amelia suddenly said.

Liam felt embarrassed as he came to his senses. But fortunately, Amelia didn't mind. She was entirely focused on the gift, just like how his words had diverted her attention earlier.

Amelia first took the file folder James had given. However, when she wanted to open it, Liam stopped her and handed her the box Ember had given instead.

"Open this first," he said.

Amelia didn't ask much and quickly opened the box.

"Wow, it's beautiful!" Picking up the pair of bracelets from the box, Amelia exclaimed with admiration. Her eyes were filled with joy.

Looking at the pair of bracelets, Liam's expression also changed.

When Ember first took out the box, he had already guessed what was inside. However, he felt uneasy without seeing what was inside with his own eyes.

Amelia had already put on one bracelet. When it came to wearing the other one, she hesitated a bit.

She already had a watch on her other hand, so it would be inconvenient to wear

    The morning sunlight peeked through the window, piercing their eyes. Seeing that Amelia was still asleep, Liam was reluctant to get up. He wanted to spend more time with Amelia. After everything that had happened, this was the first time they slept together. Liam not only felt satisfied, but also content and happy. He wished he could be with Amelia forever. After kissing her forehead, Liam got up to draw the curtains. Unbeknownst to Liam, as he stood by the window, Amelia had already opened her eyes and was looking at him. However, Amelia was afraid of getting caught. So with just one glance, she turned away, her face instantly turning red. When Liam started dressing up, he noticed that Amelia had changed her position. Her face was also flushed.He chuckled. "There will be many more moments like this in the future. You'll have to get used to it. There's no need to be so shy!" Amelia was even more embarrassed by his words. She covered her head with the blanket, avoiding e

    Amelia turned to Liam. Her heart swelled as she looked at his guilty expression. She shook her head. "It's okay. It's all in the past. As long as you treat me better from now on, that's enough." Although Amelia had been drinking last night, she was sober when she slept with Liam and decided to stay with him. Since she had made this decision, she had no regrets.Liam was a proud man, but he was willing to put aside his pride to please her. He even apologized to her.

In the past, he was unwilling to give up on the Lancaster family and repeatedly defended Hannah. But in the end, he broke his promise to the Lancaster family for her sake.

    Amelia didn't understand all that, but simply listening about it made her feel uncomfortable. "Isn't it hard for you?" she asked. Liam felt moved. His gaze toward Amelia softened even more. He said, "If I lose the right to speak in the Prescott Group, it's equivalent to losing the company and the opportunity to make money. "If that time comes, I'd become a poor bastard. I wouldn't be able to provide you with a luxurious life. I won't even be able to afford to let your grandparents stay in a good nursing home. "By then, would you still be willing to stay with me?" Amelia's heart skipped a beat and she looked at Liam in a daze. She had never thought about that before."You're so smart, so surely that day will never come. I've never ever thought there would be such a day," she said. Considering how proud Liam was, Amelia couldn't imagine how devastated he would be if he lost everything. "Well, then start thinking about it now." Liam looked at Amelia seriously and Amelia

    Liam was so caught up in explaining and stopping Amelia from misunderstanding that he forgot he had initially planned to give the previous car to Amelia. But that car was shabby. What did he mean by intending to give it to her? Noticing Amelia's gaze was somewhat strange, he belatedly realized. "Lia, I ... I didn't mean that, I ..." Amelia burst out laughing at his awkwardness. "Alright, I understand. I didn't misunderstand anything," she said.Not only did she not misunderstand, but she also felt touched. After all, seeing Liam flustered like that due to nervousness was a rare sight. "Want to try the new car?" Liam asked. Amelia widened her eyes and nodded with a smile. Liam said the car had been modified. However, Amelia couldn't tell, but the feel of the steering wheel did feel different. She knew the car must have cost a lot. Amelia drove while Liam sat in the passenger seat, watching her cautious demeanor. He knew his money wasn't spent in vain. Amelia was a cau

    "Amelia, that's enough!" Karen couldn't help but feel distressed watching Hannah in such pain. Her gaze toward Amelia carried a hint of displeasure and anger. Before Amelia could say anything, Liam sneered. "I'm not sure what you mean by that, Mrs. Lancaster. What is enough? Did we do something wrong or disrespect the Lancaster family?" Of course, they hadn't. "But don't you think you're crossing a line? You clearly know, Hannie ... You're being a bully by behaving like this!" Karen knew Liam was difficult to deal with, so she deliberately called Amelia's name. However, she didn't expect Liam to respond for her.Looking at his attitude, he had no intention of letting Amelia handle this either. He just wanted her to sit and accept Hannah's apology.He was just like his father! "Enough. Hannie, you have to accept this," Karen said. Hannah was unwilling to give in, but thinking of Charles's harsh words and the unacceptable consequences, she gritted her teeth and said, "I'm s

    Amelia squeezed Liam's hand to stop him from saying anything further. Then, she looked at Hannah while speaking to Karen. "Mrs. Lancaster, it seems Hannah has a lot on her mind. If you don't let her speak today, she'll keep it all bottled up. It's not good for her to keep it in her heart like that!" Karen knew well that Hannah wanted to vent. After all, she had endured a lot of frustration lately. She was pressured by Charles, the interests of the Lancaster family, and her future. But over time, even Hannah couldn't hold it in."Since Ms. Lancaster has started, it might seem heartless if I don't let you continue. So go ahead and say whatever you want. I promise not to do anything to the Lancaster family because of what you say today," Amelia said. Hannah wouldn't have believed Amelia's words in the past, but today, she needed an outlet for her emotions. So she genuinely let go of her worries and spoke freely, "If you insist on an apology, I can apologize. But I can also tell

    After dinner, Amelia fell silent upon seeing Liam naturally following her into the bedroom. Liam felt a pang of uneasiness and quickly said, "Last night, I wanted to leave, but you insisted that I stayed. You won't throw me out after getting what you wanted, would you?" Amelia was speechless. She wanted to ask, "What happened to your image as a big boss? Don't you want it anymore?"But looking at his pitiful and sad demeanor, she couldn't bring herself to kick him out so heartlessly. Fortunately, Liam could control himself. So that night, he simply held her and slept peacefully. However, before drifting off to sleep, he uttered something that made Amelia worry about her future nights. "I'll let you off tonight, but you'll have to pay it back in the future. You should know I'm a normal adult, just like you are. I have needs too." Amelia angrily retorted, "I don't have those needs!" "You do. Otherwise, why did you willingly stay with me last night?"That was because he to

He was eager to share the good news with Maria. When Liam returned in the evening, Amelia told him about it. Liam didn't object and smiled, saying, "You've thought it through so thoroughly. Since you and your grandparents have agreed, I'll accompany you on the trip." Considering what David and Christopher did, she feared Liam might disagree. After all, what they did was not worthy of any sympathy. But most importantly, Amelia knew that Liam didn't like David. One could even say he was repulsed by him. "Thank you, Liam!" Amelia said."Silly, we're married. You don't have to be so formal with me," Liam replied. On the day they w

She was a true heiress of a wealthy family."After finding out your background, I wanted my son to fulfill this regret for me since I couldn't be with the woman I loved. I hoped my son could be with her daughter."I wanted Luke and Leona to marry for this purpose as well. Family interests were not my priority. Unfortunately, they had an accident, and my wish wasn't fulfilled. Then, I found out that Leona had been to Bryxton and suspected the identity of Hannah and you.

    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!"

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?
