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
Edward tried his best to talk Gwyneth out of staying the night in Liam's bedroom, but she was adamant. She changed the IV drip and checked his temperature from time to time. It was dawn when his body temperature finally stabilized.She had stayed up all night. Her mind was racing as she watched the semi-unconscious Liam. She had many thoughts but had trouble making sense of them.Edward visited them after dawn to see how they were doing. He asked, "Mrs. Luther, how is he?"When Gwyneth saw Edward, she immediately got up and was ready to leave. She said, "He's probably fine."He asked, "Mrs. Luther, where are you going? He should be awake any time now."She wanted to get out of there as soon as possible, precisely for that reason. She did not wish to discuss any issues with Liam. She had taken care of him all night because she felt sorry for him. She considered that an apology, and it was the right thing to do. Things might become tricky when he discovered this.She had clear thou
The technical director was so devastated that he almost started crying when it was confirmed that the account was accurate. He had monitored this account for a long time before finally finding something.He hurriedly grabbed his laptop and dashed to the president's office. He almost ran into some coworkers on his way there.Liam was reviewing the previous quarter's work results in his office.When Larry walked in, he suppressed the urge to laugh. Larry informed Liam in a light voice, saying, "Mr. Luther, the technical director is waiting for you outside."Liam immediately perked up when he heard this. That man had no reason to see him, except if he had some news about the hacker."Let him in," Liam commanded softly.When the technical director entered his office, Liam realized why Larry had to contain his laughter. The respectable man was drenched in sweat and was holding onto his laptop like it was his young child. He looked extremely nervous. His look, coupled with his formal a
The wedding was set for early August, with one ceremony abroad and one in the country.Although Liam had proposed just before they tried her bridal gown, he still had plenty of romantic tricks up his sleeves. Even today, articles about them were still trending, just as he came true on his promise that everyone would learn that Gwyneth was his wife.It was a wedding like no other, and to avoid unnecessary issues, only close friends and employees from their respective companies were invited.For once, Liam's family was in full attendance, while no one from Gwyneth's family was present…-Glen Villa was in utter chaos as Bianca hurled insults at Gaspard, her usual gentle demeanor replaced by savagery. "See?! What did I tell you?! Gwyneth is an ingrate, and it's only now that you realize—you're her father, but you're not even invited to her wedding! What do you even amount to, Gaspard?!"Even as she ranted, she rushed up to beat him up.Furious, he shoved her away. "Stay away fr
Anyone would be melting from the charm of Harley's puppylike affection.Sadly for him, Gwyneth was not just anyone—she remained unaffected, and once he finished, she growled coldly, "I hope you'll remember that Liam is the only one for me."Harley felt a pang of pain over his chest and growled through his teeth, "If only I came to you earlier—""It still wouldn't be you," she said, looking him in the eye, each line more brutal than the next.And with those words, she refused to look his way as he returned to Liam.She thought that Henry had put together the banquet since his wedding with Aubrey was coming soon. Now, however, it seemed that Henry only wanted to set up a meeting between Harley and her.Feeling weary inside, she leaned against Liam's chest and breathed, "I want a trip abroad to relax, Liam.""Abroad?" Liam had just that in mind, though he had planned that further in the future and for a different purpose.Her mentioning it herself unquestionably suited him. Gent
Gwyneth's attention, however, was constrained to the first part—bewitched in college?! Hell, she would have no idea Harley existed if not for Henry, let alone that he was Henry's cousin.And what did he have to do with her anyway?Shooting Liam a grumpy glare, she huffed, "Don't try to blame me for everything. I don't even remember what he looks like.""Really?" Liam asked, deliberately provoking her. In reality, he was initially upset after seeing the text, but Gwyneth's reaction delighted him to the last.Smiling, he asked, "So you're saying that I'm the only one in your heart?"In that case, why waste time?Also, Henry really had the gall to ask his woman to console his cousin!Sneering, he picked up Gwyneth's phone and called Henry, who urgently cried from the other end, "Did you see my text, Gwyneth? I really have no choice here… Harley's drunk, and he's been calling your name since yesterday. When he woke up just now, he—""So what?" Liam growled, cutting him short. "Yo
Liam Luther?! How could it be him?!Harley was left in disbelief. He was Henry's cousin, and even if they grew up in different places, he knew that Henry and Liam were friends for life.However, rumor had it that Liam had long since gotten married and loved his wife dearly. Could it be…Harley shelved the thought that occurred just then. Whatever the relationship was between Liam and Gwyneth or how reliant she was on Liam, the only thing Harley knew for sure was that he loved Gwyneth.His knuckles clenched at his sides for a long while as his eye flared once more. Without hesitation, he strode forward, cutting off Liam with his trademark sunny smile. "Greetings, Mr. Luther. I'm Harley Munroe, Henry's cousin. He spoke of you a while ago, so it's an honor to meet you today."Even as he spoke, his eyes never left Gwyneth, but he remained antsy even though he braced himself inwardly."Also, I'm wondering what's the connection here—""I want to go home, Liam," Gwyneth murmured before
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
With that in mind, Gwyneth made her way to the author’s home… Twice, in fact. 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! It was around then when Aubrey learned about what Gwyneth was doing… and frankly, she had a hard time processing things. After all, to think that her friend was taking all this so seriously! This was the same woman who used to only turn the television on to catch up
After leaving the villa, Gwyneth bolted straight for Director Motley’s house… and when she arrived, she realized that the family doctor was there as well. The doctor had met repeated failures whenever it came to scheduling a meeting with Gwyneth… But even though this was his chance to finally have a proper talk with her, he refrained. After all, he had already figured out that she was a woman who preferred keeping to herself, and since that was the case, he didn’t need to pry… Regardless, the two quickly began having a lengthy conversation regarding Director Motley’s health concerns, with the director occasionally contributing to the conversation when needed. Following that, Gwyneth began giving numerous helpful recommendations which eventually made Director Motley tear up a little. Shaking his head with a sigh of relief, the director muttered, “I really appreciate your help… Really, you’ve extended my life by quite a bit by just sharing all this…” “Hey, you’re going to make it
Having made up his mind, James began to find a way to apologize to Gwyneth.It turned out she had found a diretor she wanted for Moon Runners, but it was a newcomer who had only recently debuted and caused a tiny stir.James' expression contorted when he stumbled on the news.He had led countless film crews in winning innumerable accolades, but Gwyneth preferred some newbie over his illustrious achievements?! The woman was clearly blind!While he was certainly filled with ill will and was intent on seeing what Gwyneth could do with some novice director, he still had no choice but to apologize to her for the sake of his own future.However, Gwyneth had already anticipated his move—as soon as he called, she signaled for Wanda to put her on a YouTube livestream session.Oblivious to the fact, James repressed the humiliation he felt of begging mercy from a younger person and flashed a false smile. "Ms. Glen, I apologize for being blind and insulting you before… but I heard that you'r
