Her instincts told her that this was not the response she was hoping to hear. Gwyneth said with her arms crossed, "Wanda, don't beat around the bush."Wanda spoke softly while lowering her head. Everyone could see how upset and uncomfortable she was. She admitted, "Mr. Hut hired me to get close to you when I joined Hut Corporation."Not earth-shattering, but still a surprising discovery. Gwyneth was a little stunned because, given the circumstances, she had not anticipated Wanda admitting it. Her gaze fell on Wanda's swollen wrist. She pursed her lips, recalling how Wanda had screamed at the top of her lungs and fought ferociously for her sake. Gwyneth instructed, "You should get some rest."Wanda's head suddenly rose in response to Gwyneth's command. She was visibly upset. She had the impression that Gwyneth had abruptly let go of her hand and abandoned her. The tears she had been holding back when she faced the kidnappers finally started to show themselves.Although she technic
The Masked Symphony of Mrs. Luther Chapter 102 Being Ignored
Hayden squinted involuntarily when he noticed Gwyneth's adorable expression. He could not care less about Liam's piercing gaze.Hayden moved closer to Gwyneth, stopping just short of touching her. He inquired, "Aside from returning the favor, do you think it would be too much to ask if I requested dinner with you?"Gwyneth jested, "I haven't seen you in a while. Where did you learn this trick from?"Hayden's demand and demeanor did not irritate Gwyneth, but she was overwhelmed with a sense of helplessness. She appreciated how kind this man was to her, but when it went too far, it became uncomfortable. It was impossible to deny that the two were friends after knowing each other for so long. Furthermore, how could she decline his invitation after he had given up the exorbitantly expensive Glacier Lake project to her?Gwyneth sighed softly in her heart before nodding in agreement and grinning.Hayden was so overjoyed that even his gaze had changed from before.On the other hand, L

Elizabeth was frantic, and her feelings raced alongside the vehicle. She clung firmly to her phone to mask her panic. She had to occasionally check her phone's screen because it was muted.She quickly covered the screen's glow with her hand whenever a new message came in. Her sudden movement startled the driver and unintentionally caused her elbow to slam against the window.The driver inquired cautiously, not wanting to say the wrong thing, "Ms. Lisle, are you alright?""I'm good, everything is fine."She forced a smile and waved her hand at the driver before reading the message.Elizabeth finally sighed in relief when she read Kingsley's message saying he would take the blame. Although the police could follow the trail back to Kingsley, it did not lead to her.Hayden, Gwyneth, and Wanda followed the convoy as it departed the port. After driving for about an hour, Gwyneth realized they were not heading to the city.With some confusion, Gwyneth peered out at the mostly quiet roa
The Masked Symphony of Mrs. Luther Chapter 104 The Center of Attention
When Hayden noticed Gwyneth suddenly lost in thought, he quickly changed the subject and said, "Alright, we should drop this topic while we're having our meal."He got up to refill the wine. He took care of everything for Gwyneth, from setting the table to changing cutlery and placing napkins. The servants who were supposed to serve them were unable to step in as Hayden had personally completed all of these tasks.Meanwhile, Wanda was quietly eating her meal by the side. She seemed to be at ease.Hayden had been away for years and seldom interacted with the servants, but this was the first time he had brought a woman home and took such good care of her.When this happened, the servants could sense something. They exchanged glances and seemed to understand the situation. The moment Hayden called them to start preparing dinner when Gwyneth entered the estate was when they understood everything.Fearing they might mistreat Gwyneth, they all stood nearby, even though Hayden did not re
The Masked Symphony of Mrs. Luther Chapter 105 There Should Be a Reason
Gwyneth inquired, "Where did you get this?"Gwyneth was fanatic when it came to hackers. She was obviously thrilled to see the laptop, as evidenced by the sparkle in her eyes.Her response lifted Hayden's mood, and he handed her the laptop. He uttered, "You can check it right away. It would be a hassle if the mastermind was smart enough to clean up his tracks online."In response, Gwyneth raised an eyebrow at Hayden and said, "If the mastermind was smart enough, they wouldn't have exposed their real name during the kidnapping exchange."Gwyneth turned on the laptop and opened a browser. Then she opened the official website of today's auction organizer and used a backdoor program to access the complete list of participants. This was simple for Gwyneth.Kingsley's name was conspicuously on the list."Well, you are right. This mastermind isn't very smart," Hayden said as he leaned against the table.Hearing this, Gwyneth looked at him, and the two exchanged a smile. After that, s
The Masked Symphony of Mrs. Luther Chapter 106 I Regret It
"Were you waiting for me?" Gwyneth inquired as she set her coat on the sofa.After a full day of running around, even a robot would feel exhausted, never mind her worn-out body and soul. All she wanted to do was return to her room, take a hot bath, and collapse onto her bed.Given Liam's response, she was unable to leave right away because he had something to say. She owed him some gratitude because he had urgently come to her rescue today."How are you feeling? I didn't check if you were okay because the fishing port was crowded and chaotic," Liam said as he turned to face Gwyneth.He stared at her, and his eyes were filled with worry."I'm fine, really. I don't even need a band-aid because these are just scratches," Gwyneth shrugged and spoke in a relaxed tone.She swallowed the questions, that were on the tip of her tongue, about how Liam had found her and how he was feeling. They seemed redundant now."That's nice," said Liam in response.Gwyneth looked up at Liam after hea
The Masked Symphony of Mrs. Luther Chapter 107 A Misunderstanding
Gwyneth bombarded Henry with questions, "What the heck just happened? How's Aubrey doing? What's the current situation?"Liam had already taken their coats and asked the servant to get the car ready for them while Gwyneth was asking these questions."I'm not sure, but Aubrey is in the operating room now."Hearing the phrase "operating room" nearly caused Gwyneth to faint. Thankfully, Liam was there to quickly hold her. He grabbed her by the shoulders and led her out the door.Gwyneth wanted to smack Henry in the head when she questioned him. "What happened? Why's she in the operating room? Was there a car accident?"This man was a smooth-talker when talking to women in a flirtatious manner, but when things got serious, he began to stammer.Henry clarified, "It wasn't a car accident. Aubrey's head was hit, and she has lost a lot of blood. I'm to blame for this particular incident."Liam dismissed the driver and personally sat behind the wheel. He knew Gwyneth had to have been w
The Masked Symphony of Mrs. Luther Chapter 108 Taking Care of Things
Nodding, Gwyneth felt bad for Aubrey. She was one of the few friends who was willing to put her life on the line. Now, her friend had ended up in the operating room due to a ridiculous misunderstanding.The doctor explained, "Although the patient sustained a serious forehead injury and lost a significant amount of blood, her condition is not as serious as we initially thought. We have saturated the wound. There aren't any major concerns, and she should recover with enough rest."Hearing the doctor's words made Gwyneth lightheaded, likely from too much stress. Liam noticed she could not stand still and quickly steadied her.Liam asked, "Can we see her now?"The doctor glanced at Liam and softly chuckled, "Yes, but keep in mind that she has a head injury, so please don't stay for too long. Let her rest.""Thank you, doctor," Liam said and nodded slightly to the doctor while keeping his arm around Gwyneth's waist.While they waited in the corridor, Henry remained silent throughout.

The Masked Symphony of Mrs. Luther Chapter 654 A Dark Horse
After a restful night, Gwyneth returned to Greer College to meet up with Willa… Willa, for one, had placed high value on their meeting, to the point where she had postponed a class just so that they could discuss things without any interruption. Stirring her coffee, Willa chuckled as she muttered, “So, before moving on, let me apologize if I came off as snobbish the first time we met… I just have high standards since I want my work to be loved by many, you know? With that out of the way, let’s talk about the collaboration… I admit I like the plot, but… There are several conditions that you need to think about before we can proceed.” Nodding in response, Gwyneth found herself surprised that her demands weren’t outrageous at all. In fact, Gwyneth would’ve followed those principles even if Willa hadn’t brought them up! Though this was nothing to Gwyneth, it meant the world to Willa. After all, it was hard to find someone so honest these days, and she was rather grateful that she h

After putting some distance between them, Aubrey couldn’t help but ask, “…Are you sure she’ll agree…? If you need help, I do know a few scriptwriters that could easily replace Willa…” Sure, she had faith in her friend, but Aubrey seemed like a tough nut to crack… It didn’t help that there were so many other competent screenwriters out there to compete with! To her dismay, Gwyneth simply grinned and replied, “Don’t worry, I have a feeling that she’ll soon see things the way I do…” Just as Aubrey was about to sigh in defeat, a young man suddenly ran up to them and said, “Well hey there, ladies… Where to?” It was clear that he had his eyes on Gwyneth, and following a smirk, Aubrey replied, “Kid, you’re years too early to try hitting on us…” Sheepishly scratching the back of his head, the man muttered, “I mean, can I at least have your number…?” Naturally, Gwyneth wasn’t about to humor this person, especially since he was already starting to annoy her. With that, she simply sho

Both times, she was fully sincere with her persuasions… and with how determined she was, the author finally gave in and agreed to meet up. Pleased to hear that, she agreed and headed straight to Greer College straight after. If she wanted this to work, then she would need a professional screenwriter who shared her perspective on the job… Naturally, Gwyneth already had someone in mind. Willa Robson. With that, she quickly gave the college’s principal to ask for his permission to sit in on a class, and he agreed to her idea almost instantaneously. After all, it was an honor for someone of Gwyneth’s stature to ask for someone from his college!
