last update Last Updated: 2024-01-13 18:30:00
Liam spent the night with Amelia that evening. Though they shared the same bed, they were separated by an invisible line, like the crack in their marriage.

Liam looked at Amelia's silhouette in the dark. A lot of things played in his mind. Although Amelia had her back turned on Liam, the intense gaze was too hard to ignore. Liam was staring at her.

However, long gone was the naiveté Amelia once had. She would not believe Liam again.

"You don't want to know where I was in the afternoon?"

Liam was frustrated by Amelia's cold shoulder. Legally speaking, they were still married. Her refusal to communicate despite their proximity began to irate Liam.

Amelia heard Liam loud and clear, of course, but she didn't want to talk to him. To provoke a response out of Amelia, Liam added something that truly made Amelia angry.

"You're my wife. Shouldn't you be concerned about what I did? Am I not your husband?"

"Why does it matter? I won't be your wife soon enough. You already decided to divo

    Liam went about his business as usual for the next couple of days, leaving to work early and coming back late. Were it not for the occasional call from Leona, Amelia would have thought that nothing major had altered her life. Suddenly, her phone buzzed. She raised a brow when she saw the caller ID. He finally called her.Amelia had not forgotten about the promise Eric gave her when she ran into him in the hospital. Knowing Eric, he would call her if he knew that she was miserable. The call came in a few days later—there must be more to it, or so Amelia guessed.And indeed, after a few pleasantries, Eric fell silent, before posing the crucial question, "Amelia, do you want to change your answer?""Huh?" Amelia needed clarification."Do you want to stay or leave?"Amelia pursed her lips. How should she answer this question? She wanted to leave, but leaving wasn't easy. Her silence told Eric that Amelia had too many things to consider."Just tell me what your heart wants, Am

    "Mr. Prescott, Astra seems to have been in close contact with them recently. Could it be that something's going to happen?"  Gio reported the recent news when Liam arrived at the office.  Liam frowned and asked, "Them? You mean the government?"   Gio nodded his head. "Yes, I believe they've managed to make a deal."  Liam thought for a while and snorted. "That person sure isn't willing to give up."  Gio realized that Liam must have gotten himself into another conflict with that person.  "Should we do something, Mr. Prescott?"  "There's no need to do anything. Tell everyone not to openly go against Astra, and there's no need to snatch away any projects from them. We only need to do what we've been doing."  "Won't this make people think that we are…"  Gio was hesitant as he couldn't comprehend why Liam was willing to back off like this.  "Afraid of Astra?"  Liam raised his eyebrows and looked at him while finishing his sentence for him.  Gio sheepishly answered

    "I've told you to stop contacting her."  Liam's handsome face had distorted from anger. Leona was visibly aggrieved before forcing herself to cheer up.  "You wanted me to stay in the hospital even after you promised that I could move in. Even though I had already confirmed with the doctor that I could already be discharged, you remained adamant that I should stay for a little longer."  "I had assumed that you hadn't finished talking with Amelia about the matter and didn't probe you further. But now that I'm here, I had thought that you'd have already settled everything with her."  "Regardless, this had been unfair to Amelia. I'm just really grateful that she could accept my presence."  She raised her head and tried to reach out to Liam. "I have no other intention aside from thanking her. You can take a look at what I wrote."  Liam looked down at her phone to see her chat log with Amelia. Above Amelia's voice messages were the messages Leona had sent over earlier. The me

    After leaving Prescott Manor, Liam drove towards Riverbay Residence. However, when he arrived, he lost the courage to go inside.   Judging from Amelia's voice messages, he could imagine how angry she was because of Leona's words.  Looking at the still gloomy Amelia, May hesitated and asked, "Madam, Mr. Prescott seems to be back. Do you want me to—"  "His decision to come in or not is his own choice. If he wants to come in, let him. If not, don't force him to!"   May sensed Amelia's frustration. She wanted to ease the tension between them, but it seemed impossible. After a moment of hesitation, May returned to the kitchen.  Liam lingered outside for nearly half an hour before finally entering. Amelia had already gone back to her room, so May discreetly indicated her location to Liam. May whispered, "Madam Amelia heard the car when you arrived, but since you didn't come in, she went back to her room."  Nodding, Liam felt a mix of emotions. Before entering, he mentally prepar

    "Don't overthink it. I'll fulfill the promises I made to you, but give me some time. After all, I have guilt towards her." Liam lowered his gaze, concealing all emotions, and spoke calmly. By this time, Amelia had come downstairs. She had seen him downstairs just as she was about to descend.     She thought he had already left, but surprisingly, he was there all this while. Even though she didn't know who was on the other end of the call, she could guess the identity judging from his tone. Since he was sitting on the couch, Amelia didn't want to go to the living room. She turned towards the kitchen. Originally, she thought he had left and wanted to come down for a moment. Seeing him there changed her mind. In the kitchen, she poured herself a glass of water and went upstairs.  "Do you believe me?" he asked.  Her footsteps hesitated as she went upstairs. Amelia fell silent. At this point, it didn't matter whether she believed it or not. Liam felt somewhat disappointed when

    She forcefully pushed away his hand. Despite being weakened by illness, she felt more spirited at that moment. Angry thoughts raced through her mind. "Only if he had approved? Would he have approved of me conceiving someone else's child? No wonder he said it was okay earlier!"She questioned, "How could he not know that those words were just uttered in anger?"   She wondered if he was teasing her. Realizing this, Amelia became even more furious. Just as she was about to say something, May approached from the other side.  "Madam, you didn't eat much earlier, and you vomited. I was afraid you'd be hungry, so I brought some snacks. You can have something to eat while we're on our way to the hospital," May said.May's interruption shifted Amelia's attention, and although still upset, she refrained from saying anything in front of May."Thank you," she nodded at May and ignored Liam.    "Madam, you're welcome. You can rest on me for a while before we reach the hospital," May said

    The infusion room was crowded. As soon as Liam entered, he noticed Amelia sitting next to a middle-aged man. He too was receiving infusions. Liam frowned at the scene. "Still can't behave properly even when sick," he said to himself, yet no one knew if he was referring to the man or complaining about Amelia.  There was a television in the infusion room. The middle-aged man seemed to be watching it, but his gaze wandered and occasionally landed on Amelia.  What frustrated Liam even more was that Amelia seemed oblivious. She was thoroughly engrossed in the television.  "May doesn't know how to handle things!"  Liam couldn't help but express his dissatisfaction with May at this moment. He quickly walked over, stood by Amelia, and blocked the middle-aged man's view with one hand.  Amelia suddenly felt a dark shadow and looked up to see Liam's face. She instinctively leaned back as Liam was so close to her.   "Didn't you leave?" she asked. May had informed her that Liam woul

    May didn't tell Amelia about Liam's message because she was afraid Amelia would overthink things.   Amelia was already disappointed in Liam, and hearing his words would only deepen her despair.     Without Liam visiting in the following days, Amelia felt puzzled. However, she chose not to say anything. She thought it might be better if he didn't come, then she could live more freely.  However, as time passed, she started to feel anxious.  Concerns grew when there was no progress on Eric's side. Yet, Amelia hesitated to contact him as she didn't want to add pressure on him.    Eric had called once, but his words didn't reassure her. He mentioned ongoing plans, but Liam's previous words left Amelia uneasy. With Liam absent, she worried about potential conflicts between him and Eric. So she spent her days online, hoping for news about the Prescott Group and Astra.     Unfortunately, the lack of information disappointed her, and she felt uncertain on whether to feel relieved

    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?
