Liam felt uncomfortable after hearing Henry's mockery, but he knew he could not blame Gwyneth for being good at keeping her secrets. No one else was to blame but him.

"Hey! Have you ever seen me single?" Henry shoved Liam with a serious face full of dissatisfaction when Liam teased him back.

Henry was someone Liam could call his friend in this circle of people.

Henry owned a showbiz company. Although he seemed a little eccentric, his wisdom and skills were admirable when he was serious.

Probably because his industry was different, Henry was never short of women, but he also never fell for them. According to his own words, life is like a playground.

How about we go somewhere else? Let's have a private discussion about a business deal?"Until now, Henry hadn't paid close attention to Gwyneth. But now, they stood barely a foot apart. As he looked at Gwyneth's face right in front of him, his heartbeat skipped a beat. She wasn't drop-dead gorgeous, but she had a charisma and a poise that made her stand out in the cro

    Gwyneth glanced at her friend's self-satisfied expression and grinned, lifting her glass. The two of them clinked their glasses together, their laughter blending into the vibrant buzz of the bar."You know, this is the first time we've seen each other since you took over Glen Corporation. So, congratulations to you," Aubrey said, her raised eyebrows conveying a playful tone influenced by the alcohol. Both of them wore a slightly dazed look, their cheeks flushed."I believe there's something else worthy of congratulations, aside from the Glen Corporation acquisition," Gwyneth remarked, lightly running her fingertip along the rim of her glass. A smirk danced at the corner of her mouth, hinting at a mix of emotions. However, in the dim lighting, Aubrey remained oblivious to Gwyneth's inner conflict."Oh! Right, right! How could I forget? Congratulations on reclaiming your lifestyle," Aubrey exclaimed. Initially, Aubrey had intended to congratulate Gwyneth on her newfound singlehood. Bu

However, he struggled to determine the gender of the person she held in her arms. The sight before him, coupled with the unsettling phone call, tangled his thoughts.With clenched fists, Liam lunged forward, catching Henry off guard. His fists were poised for action, but as soon as he realized that the person in Gwyneth's embrace was a woman, his hands froze mid-air.

He chuckled self-deprecatingly at the thoughts that crossed his mind. 'When did I start becoming someone I hardly recognized?'After a brief hesitation, Liam decided to undo Gwyneth's shirt and pants one by one. If a servant were to witness this scene, they would undoubtedly be shocked. Liam was known for his cleanliness, and yet he didn't seem to mind Gwyneth's soiled clothes, allowing her to lie on his bed. It was truly an unprecedented occurrence.As Gwyneth's pants

    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.

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
