"Mrs. Luther, where are you going?""I'm going to Liam's office," Gwyneth replied with a smile, ignoring the maid's ambiguous smile.She packed the thermal lunchbox and drove to Luther Corporation.The two had not yet developed strong feelings, but their recent interactions were quite pleasant. Since Gwyneth was the one who made the mistake, she should be the one to take the initiative and make amends. She could live with that.On her way to Liam's office, she thought about every step. She would sincerely explain and apologize to Liam. It would be up to him whether or not he could accept it, but she would have done her best.Meanwhile, the majority of Luther Corporation's employees had left work. Elizabeth still sat in her office, but her mind wandered off to Liam. She was still employed in Luther Corporation, but she rarely got to interact with Liam now.Today, she overheard that the president was going to work overtime, and she could no longer hold back. After all the employe
Elizabeth was confident in the drug's effectiveness, but she worried that problems might arise if it took too long to work. Therefore, she poured all of it into Liam's drink.She observed him through the door's crack.His eyes were half-closed, and his movements grew slower.She could not wait any longer. If someone showed up now, all of her efforts would be in vain. So she quickly entered the office. As expected, his consciousness was fuzzy.When Liam heard the door open, he instinctively looked up, but he only made out a blurry figure. He could not identify who it was based on the face or figure. His thoughts and physical reactions instinctively made him believe that the woman was Gwyneth.Elizabeth had walked up to Liam. Her heart was pounding wildly, and she was more eager than ever to take the next step.As she was about to speak, Liam seized her wrist suddenly. His grip was incredible given his confused state.She played along with it and fell into his arms. She had never
Liam's body froze after Elizabeth said this. His ears picked up a familiar voice that echoed in his head, and it startled him. This voice did not belong to Gwyneth. It belonged to…Although it was difficult to recognize, he was certain that it was not Gwyneth's. He did not care about anyone but Gwyneth.Liam quickly grabbed Elizabeth's wrist with this thought in mind. However, it was difficult for him to get up, so he bit his teeth hard and roared in a raspy voice, as if he had not drank water in a while."Fuck off!"The sudden outburst shocked Gwyneth and made Elizabeth tremble in fear. Gwyneth assumed that Liam had said that to her because she was unable to see his face from where she was standing, considering the circumstances."Haha!" Gwyneth sneered icily, but she was heartbroken inside. She walked out of the office without saying anything.She glanced at the lunchbox in her hand as she walked out of the elevator, passed by the lobby, and prepared to leave.'It looks like
The paparazzi were satisfied with the material after fleeing from the office. Even though they were unable to get their hands on the specifics, they were still able to take some intimate pictures.Elizabeth sneered after they left. She thought the situation was ideal after she gave it some thought. At the very least, it would cause a stir online.Initially, Elizabeth wanted to leave, but she refrained from doing so when she thought about the circumstances and Liam's condition. If Liam was unable to control himself, she still had a chance to sleep with him. After all, it was a very powerful drug.She hesitated briefly as she stood before Liam's office. She then entered the room next to his office while leaving the door open.Originally her office, this room now belonged to Liam's assistant. She left the door open in case Liam could not find her when he walked out.Liam slowly got up from his chair and made his way to the restroom inside the president's office. His rationality slowl
Elizabeth could not imagine the scandal's aftermath. She was overjoyed, and Liam's attitude did not bother her. Since both news articles and photos had been released, she thought the more viral the scandal became, the better.In light of this, Elizabeth picked up the phone and made another call to some paparazzi. Her goal was simple. She wanted to hire some posters. She had to ask the paparazzi for help because she had no other contacts in this line of work.Nobody would decline the offers because they got to report the news and make extra money. Additionally, if Elizabeth hired posters, it would benefit the scandal, and they could make more money."Ms. Lisle, rest assured. No matter how hot you want this scandal to be, we'll make sure it happens.""Ms. Lisle, don't worry. We will keep this confidential, and the trendy hashtag will remain on the list."Hearing these responses, Elizabeth exhaled in relief.The paparazzi were always efficient. The reward increased with the scandal'
Liam left the office and immediately took the elevator to the lobby. His pace slowed abruptly as he approached the reception area. The reception desk looked tidy, but there was a lunchbox on it.He walked over and carefully examined it. Suddenly, he realized that this lunchbox used to appear in his villa. He had a stomach issue not long ago, and every day, Larry would bring him the same lunchbox from home out of concern that the food from outside was unhygienic.Liam began to connect the dots as he thought about it. He quickly opened the lunchbox, and the aroma rushed out of it. He picked up the spoon and sipped the soup. It was still warm and flavorful. He had confirmed the thought that had crossed his mind. Gwyneth had prepared the soup and personally delivered it to him. In this case, what had happened in the office previously…This thought terrified Liam. He held the lunchbox in one hand and his coat in the other and walked out of the building.Larry was waiting for him in
Gwyneth chuckled softly in response to this. It was hard for her to stay mad over the good news.A few days ago, she had sent Hayden the remaining parts of the arrangement after he repeatedly urged her to do so. After the song teaser was released, they received a good response from the public. She did not pay much attention to this but was happy that her work was loved by many.Two days after its official release, sales had exceeded ten thousand copies. It was indeed a great achievement."Congratulations, Hayden," she said with a gentle smile. She congratulated her friend sincerely. He said, "Gwyneth, I owe you a great favor with this album's good response. I’ll send you a gift to show my gratitude."She was still sleepy, and her reaction was slow. When she heard this, she rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand and mumbled, "A gift?""Yes, a gift. Based on my estimations, it should have arrived by now. Ms. Glen, please go downstairs to collect your gift."He hung up before
Liam raised his head when he heard this. He sighed when he saw the lovely scene before him. He honestly liked animals, but his body forbade him from getting too close to them.While Gwyneth was seated at the dining table, the kitten crept underneath it."Meow…"Liam stopped eating when it meowed. He followed the sound to its source, lowered his gaze, and met the kitten eye-to-eye."Meow…"It meowed once more, but this time it was not very friendly.Both shocked and amused, Liam could not help but smile.'Does this kitten remember what happened in the morning when I nearly tossed it away? So it's holding a grudge against me. I suppose there is some truth to the saying that pets take after their owners.’He chuckled silently as he looked at Gwyneth.The two had few interactions during breakfast. Liam was uncomfortable about this. Originally, he believed that the relationship between them was slowly getting better. Now, their progress had gone back to square one or worse. A
