Gwyneth won over the entire production team after three days of interactions. This woman seemed to be able to handle any challenge that came her way. Nothing seemed to stump her.She chuckled lightly when she heard the compliment. Her thoughts immediately went back to Liam carrying her up the mountain during the day. She pursed her lips and was somewhat moved.After the pasta was ready, Gwyneth quickly made a few more dishes. She could not get too picky because the ingredients were so simple. After finishing, she was showered with compliments.Everyone was quite exhausted after spending the entire afternoon mountain climbing, so they all went to bed early.Since Liam was aware of Gwyneth's temperament, he had purposefully reserved a space for her at the tent's edge. Naturally, he occupied the spot on the other side. Gwyneth did not express any objections. What more could she ask for when everyone was living together and compromising? Moreover, Liam would be her first choice if
Gwyneth secretly felt that way, but she still had a proud look on her face. She walked past Liam when she exited the restroom because of this. She even pretended she had not noticed him.But Liam was used to her temperament. He grinned and followed her.They had walked quite a distance from the campsite at this point. Weeds were thickly populating the area. The daytime scenery was lovely, but it became eerie at night.Liam trailed behind Gwyneth for about a minute before noticing she had stopped walking. He walked up to her quickly, perplexed. When he noticed Gwyneth's expression, he was shocked. He asked, "What's wrong?""Did you hear anything?" Gwyneth asked gently as she knitted her brows and scanned their surroundings.That query gave Liam the chills. It was not fear but an instinctual response to the unknown. As Liam was about to probe, a howl suddenly erupted beside his ears. Two or three more howls soon followed. It was not loud, but it was incredibly clear."Have we enc
Elizabeth was basically saying that Gwyneth did this on purpose to gain sympathy.Gwyneth had only recently recovered from the fall's sense of weightlessness. She took Liam's hand, sat up slowly, and adjusted her posture. She shot a question, "Ms. Lisle, you claim to have seen everything. Tell me, from which direction did the rock come?"Gwyneth's ability to calmly assess the situation astounded Elizabeth. She pretended to be scared at the beginning, but now she was actually terrified.Elizabeth argued, "Ms. Glen, I was right beside you when we climbed. I don’t think I had the energy to worry about the rock, did I?"Callie smiled as she stood to the side. She crossed her arms and watched the drama. In her opinion, it was good news as long as Gwyneth was hurt.Hayden, meanwhile, fixated his gaze on the tightly clasped hands of Gwyneth and Liam. He even pressed his lips tightly.Elizabeth feared that Gwyneth would not believe her. She continued with her act desperately, "Despite ev
Gwyneth experienced both physical and mental discomfort after they left the set. She then let everyone know that she was returning to the villa.Liam went to the office in the meantime.Once he arrived at the office, Larry immediately presented the drafted contract and asked, "Mr. Luther, should we mediate this matter in private first? If we choose to hold her responsible, then Ms. Lisle…"Larry stopped midway because he sensed Liam's cold gaze. He gave a light cough and sheepishly stopped talking.He did not think highly of Elizabeth either, but she had been with his boss for a long time. If there were any consequences, it would be a bad idea to cause more trouble, especially after she joined the entertainment industry.Her status and position meant absolutely nothing to Liam. She deserved to meet her doom if the cameraman's account of the events was accurate. Liam felt his blood turn cold when he thought about the possibility that Gwyneth could have fallen, been hurt, or suf
Liam drove the car slowly into the villa. His attention shifted and fell on Gwyneth. He was delighted to see the person he cared about suddenly show up before him. Yet considering the difficult situation she was in, he was deeply worried about her.He had faith in Gwyneth's abilities, but when he started to worry about someone, he behaved childishly and needed to keep a close eye on them.Gwyneth was enjoying red wine in the living room. She was sighing a little and appeared worn out.The butler walked out of the villa and helped Liam park his car. Following that, the two entered the house, one after another.Gwyneth was already heading upstairs. She looked around and gave the man at the door a quick glance when she heard the noise. She asked, "Aren't you going to the office? Why are you home so soon?"The butler tactfully left the living room. Only the two remained.When she received no response after a few minutes, Gwyneth turned her heels and went upstairs. She was exhaust
When Liam discovered Gwyneth leaving the house, he immediately got to his feet and took a protective stance. He asked, "Where are you going?"She had never seen Liam act so anxiously before. She was unable to contain her laughter and said, "Office. I've been postponing signing a contract for a few days."She replied as she moved toward the door. She knew she could not stop Liam from going with her.When she opened the front door, something struck her coat. A pungent smell then filled the air."Oh my god!" Gwyneth sighed helplessly.'Elizabeth has an extraordinary gift for stirring up those who support her. In a matter of hours, someone actually voluntarily staked out Luther's residence and tossed a rotten egg at me.'Liam exclaimed, "Gwyneth!"He was following her from behind, and his field of vision was limited. He needed a few seconds to process what had happened. Subconsciously, he grabbed her wrist and stood before her.His aura suddenly flared up as he scowled and appe
Everything played out as expected, including Callie becoming involved the following day."Why should she be slapped? She acquired her status dubiously. Has she forgotten how she climbed through the social ranks?"Although Callie's remarks were ambiguous, everyone knew what they meant. She made comments about Gwyneth and Liam's relationship and hinted that Gwyneth was a mistress.Internet users had no proof, but when the course of events and their speculations were combined, it created a new drama.Despite the alliance marriage between Liam and Gwyneth, their strained relationship over the years, and the fact that they divorced after the specified time frame had passed, Gwyneth continued to live at Luther residence after their divorce and was plotting some scheme. All of these facts made the speculation appear convincing.Some people even dug up the story of Gwyneth and Liam's marriage. They claimed that Gwyneth had stolen the place of the original bride.Callie was unsure of what
These remarks caused Gwyneth's smile to vanish. She was aware that the board of directors did not give a damn about the company, nor did they acknowledge her as the CEO.Even so, there were advantages to this situation, one of which was that it gave her a good reason to kick these people out.The board member who had just made a comment about Gwyneth was a little taken aback—or even scared—by the abrupt change in her demeanor. His eyes briefly flickered, and he then quickly lowered them.'The timing is almost right.'Gwyneth gave the table a few light taps while evaluating the situation.Constant criticism rained on her online. Both the company's projects and stock prices were steadily declining. The shareholders were restless. The time for her to strike was almost right.Gwyneth paused as she thought about this. She stood up and declared, "I'll take your suggestions into consideration.""Really?"They were shocked to find Gwyneth becoming so friendly all of a sudden. They disp
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
