Typically, Aubrey would be the first to speak. She immediately got up and raised her hand in excitement. Apparently, she was not bothered by yesterday. She suggested, "Gwynnie, I finally get to tag along and visit this scenic spot. Why don't we go for a stroll around Glacier Lake?"Gwyneth chuckled at her suggestion. She could comply with her request without issue. Her previous visits to this site had been work trips, but she had some free time today. It was a nice suggestion to go for a stroll. With that thought in mind, she turned her gaze toward Liam and Hayden. The two also agreed with this suggestion.Their journey from the hotel to Glacier Lake took some time, which Gwyneth used to catch up on some sleep. The drive was very peaceful, but upon arrival at Glacier Lake, Liam's phone started to ring non-stop. He would try to return to Gwyneth's side after he hung up the call, but a new call would come in shortly."You can go ahead and handle your things," Gwyneth urged gently when
Liam questioned, "Mr. Hut, am I hearing things? What did you just say?"Gwyneth was confused by his sudden move. When she reacted and grasped the situation, she was even more confused. What on earth was going on here?Before Hayden could respond, Liam tightened his grip on Gwyneth's arm and declared, "Gwyneth is my wife."The young girl who had asked Hayden for his number was disheartened by his answer, but when she heard this, her dim spirit quickly brightened up. The more she looked at Hayden, the more familiar he seemed. She asked, "Are you…?"Hayden was annoyed by Liam's statement, but he was powerless to change it. When he heard the question from the girl, a warning bell went off in his mind.Liam took advantage of this and swiftly took Gwyneth away from the crowd. Their departure created a gap around Hayden. His surroundings were already crowded, but it had become packed now. Many people who stood afar even mistaken this for a new attraction site at Glacier Lake."Hey! Aren
Both were businesspeople and understood the ins and outs of the trade, especially as small players in their industries.Liam had invested a lot of manpower and financial resources into this project. He had done it to make things convenient for Gwyneth, and it helped to put her at ease. After all, many in Glen Corporation wanted her to fall. His decision could alleviate some of her worries.When she learned about this, she was deeply moved and grateful to him. Moreover, this man had even told her that he was worried that she would misunderstand that he was neglecting her due to his busy work schedule.The fact that Gwyneth had not felt so touched in a long time caused her eyes to start watering.From a young age, Gwyneth had never experienced love from anyone other than her mother. Moreover, she frequently experienced power struggles and criticisms as the daughter of a wealthy family. Her heart was wrapped in a thick layer of ice, both to reject others and protect herself. She had
Gwyneth felt her heart break as the crowd swarmed her.She wished for a loudspeaker to silence them.The weather was the only pleasant thing. Neither the temperature nor the lake's water were too chilly. Even so, cold sweat had broken out on Gwyneth's palms, and a thin layer of perspiration coated her forehead.After struggling for a bit, Liam eventually swam to shore with the child. Some people seemed to awaken from their trance and clumsily pulled Liam and the child ashore.Such challenging hardship would leave even the strongest man exhausted. Liam's pallid face caught Gwyneth's attention, and she felt sorry for him. Whatever the case, saving a life was necessary.She took the child from Liam, laid the boy on the grass, and performed CPR on him.Hayden's side received noticeably less attention as a result of the commotion at the other end.Hayden also rushed over when he heard someone crying for help. He arrived to find Gwyneth kneeling on the ground with her back to him. She
As the car swayed throughout the journey, Aubrey started to feel sleepy and eventually fell asleep. The only one awake was Hayden, and he secretly balled up his fists when he caught a glimpse of the two in the rearview mirror.As usual, Liam followed Gwyneth to their room after arriving at the hotel.As soon as they entered, she hurried to the bathroom and prepared a hot bath. She walked out and saw Liam sitting on the sofa with his head hung low. Her heart skipped a beat at the sight.His sudden quietness stunned her because she had probably gotten used to his talkative nature.She urged softly, "You need to take a hot bath. It'll help you feel better."Her tone was imposing and caring at the same time.Liam slowly looked up when he heard her voice. He smiled at her and quietly went into the bathroom. Thirty minutes later, he emerged in a bathrobe and appeared much more energized.She picked up a hairdryer when she saw him and motioned for him to approach.He was not expecti
When they returned from Glacier Lake, Gwyneth asked for Hayden's help to send Wanda and Aubrey home. Meanwhile, she went back to the villa with Liam.The moment she arrived, she asked the servants to bring her some medication and took Liam's temperature. Luckily, it was just a mild fever from the cold.Gwyneth asked, "How do you feel?"She was overcome by many emotions as she observed Liam take his medication. This was her first time seeing Liam's vulnerable side. She never imagined that he had one. He became ill because he did not hesitate to save the life of a child he had never met. He dove into the icy lake to do that. He was compassionate.Gwyneth chuckled lightly and headed to the kitchen.Liam immediately perked up when he noticed this. He quickly stood up and followed her into the kitchen. As expected, he saw Gwyneth busy with something in the kitchen.He asked, "What is my wife cooking?""Chicken broth."She decided not to quibble with the way he addressed her, c
Hayden's trendy hashtag was extremely popular and prompted Gael to make others too. Half a day later, the news of Gael Strauss is a woman' had completely overtaken Hayden's new song release.When Liam first saw this, he believed he was hallucinating due to his fever. Ultimately, when a man falls in love, every woman he comes across looks like his beloved.At noon, Liam was confident that he had recovered from his illness, so he rechecked the trending hashtags. Later, as the familiarity grew intense and a powerful wave of emotion spread throughout his heart, he wished he had not done it. He wondered if his wife was the famous composer, Gael Strauss?In fact, Liam frequently listened to Gael's works, which were incredibly enjoyable and a true delight.When he considered this, Liam's thoughts returned to the previous international piano competition. That day, Gwyneth occupied a judge's seat beneath the stage. Then she took the stage, where her performance impressed the audience.Liam
After Liam went back to the villa, he locked himself in the study for the whole afternoon. It was unknown whether he had done this to punish Gwyneth or himself.After some reflection, he decided that he needed to step back. He did not resort to playing hard-to-get as a strategy, but he just felt that his relentless pursuit was not effective.When he thought about the song and photos his love rival had posted on social media, Liam tightened his fists in frustration.During dinner time, a servant was supposed to knock on the study room's door and remind Liam to have his dinner. As luck would have it, Gwyneth was passing by the room, and she decided to personally ask him to come out for dinner.She hesitated momentarily as she stood outside the study door. She chuckled a little and proceeded to knock on the door.Actually, she understood Liam's feelings, or more precisely, his rage. If she overlooked the essence of the matter, considering Liam's status, how many men out there had the
