Henry had excellent reflexes, or else he would have gotten food poisoning tonight. The moment the unidentified object touched his lips, he leaped from his chair and ran upstairs.As he was running, he recalled something and went straight to the study.The two had been friends for years. Henry knew his friend had a habit of storing good wine in this study.He found a bottle of red wine that had been recently opened on a small wine rack near the bookshelf. He knew it was a rare find, regardless of its origins or the year.He went downstairs, smirking, and filled everyone's glasses.Liam was not bothered by this. He felt glad when he saw Gwyneth chatting and laughing with her friends. She had not relaxed in a long time.In the end, all the dishes were taken away, and the chef cooked new ones for them.Everyone was very satisfied with the good food and accompaniment.During this meal, Gwyneth observed that Henry had been taking good care of Aubrey the whole time. The look in his ey
Gwyneth snorted coldly and beckoned her employees. Then she led the group into Leonard's office.They saw Violet yelling at Leonard while placing both hands on the desk.Leonard was bewildered. Regardless, he cared deeply for Violet. After she made a scene, he happened to look up and see Gwyneth standing at the door.He had developed special feelings for Gwyneth, but he had to defend Violet. Besides that, he was not particularly happy that Gwyneth had approached him earlier with an ulterior motive and threatened him at the nightclub.When he thought of this, he slammed the table hard and flew into a rage. He said angrily, "Ms. Glen! It appears that our cooperation is off the table now!""Oh?"Gwyneth was astounded that Leonard would decisively break off their cooperation. Judging from the situation, she had underestimated Violet's influence. However…"If you have made up your mind, I won't say anything, but I want to clarify something."Gwyneth took out two of her business ca
Elizabeth had vanished from public view ever since she gave her shares in Glen Corporation to Gwyneth. No one was aware of her whereabouts.Gwyneth was so busy that she had no interest in finding out Elizabeth's intentions.Gwyneth became increasingly certain of her earlier opinions the longer she was gone. All of her kind actions were probably facades. Elizabeth would approach her once more if that were the case.Her theories were in line with some aspects of the truth.However, Elizabeth did not approach Gwyneth for some time.She had contacted Judy under the guise of a man. The two had been in cahoots from the beginning, and as time went on, their relationship deepened.Elizabeth was the one who had orchestrated Gwyneth's stabbing at Glen Corporation's anniversary party.Judy remembered the code name her friend had left behind when she received a mysterious message. She connected the dots and knew that Elizabeth was reaching out to her.She hurriedly dressed up, grabbed her
Judy glared at Gaspard's horrifyingly pale face. She wanted to let all of her rage out.She yelled, "Dad! Gwyneth is walking over us now! How are you managing to stay calm? You're worrying too much, and that's why you've never really fought back!"When his daughter yelled at him, Gaspard grew increasingly uneasy.Judy had made up her mind, and she was determined to convince Gaspard. She roared, "Are you willing to give her control over us? Do you want to continue living your life in this manner?"His back, which had been upright, was gradually slumping.This was a clear indication of compromise. Judy was aware that her father had agreed.The next day, the father and daughter started to discuss their plan.At the same time, Gwyneth was attending a meeting at AMC Group's subsidiary.There were far too many problems in the company when Craig was running it. It would take Gwyneth a long time to deal with the aftermath properly after she took office.A loud bang could be heard in t
Liam stormed out of his office after hearing the news, putting everything else out of his mind. His heart was a mess, and he could not think properly.He had hardly ever asked Gwyneth about her upbringing. He did not see the need to ask. He would listen if she was willing to talk. It did not matter to him that she did not know because all he cared about was her.When he saw the news, Liam instinctively believed it to be true.He felt as though his heart had been shattered when he arrived at the company and saw her appearing angry and frail. He ignored everyone present and held her tightly in his arms. He comforted her, saying, "Wifey, I'm here. It's okay."Despite the fact that he was never good at expressing his emotions, those simple words had given Gwyneth comfort. It gradually brought her back to reality.His cold aura and familiar scent permeated Gwyneth's mind. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and broke away from his embrace.She turned around and glanced at the o
Sacha was clearly intimidated—given the barenaked threat, anyone in her shoes would be, as opposed to some unknown factor.She was trembling all over even as she took her phone from her pocket and opened the mail she received earlier. "Here it is—I don't know anything because the sender was anonymous. Could you let me go now?"Gwyneth, however, did not have time for anything else—she promptly committed the email address to mind and sent it to ShadowCipher right away. Within minutes, she was texted back a detailed address, with the additional note that it was a rented apartment—obviously a lodging. With a location in hand, Gwyneth put away her phone, but Liam stopped her just as she was about to leave her office. "I'm coming with you.""Worried that I'd let my emotions get the better of myself?" Gwyneth snorted, noticing his tense expression.She was clearly furious, but she was not the type who let feelings get the better of her.Liam was pursing his lips in silence—he clearly
The truth came out so quickly that the case against Gwyneth was overturned in under a day. Every netizen was dumbstruck by the unbridled spite they shared against each other, as well as Gwyneth's swiftness to action.Meanwhile, Elizabeth was sitting in a secure apartment and listening to the audio file uploaded online, her eyes narrowing as she snorted. "I knew I couldn't count on her," she growled, her cheek twitching savagely as she remembered how confidently Judy assured her lips were sealed. Still, Elizabeth giggled darkly. Fortunately for her, she had her own countermeasures in place since she knew Gwyneth. She had long since learned that Gwyneth was not to be trifled with after their numerous bouts!In fact, she already installed a camera outside Judy's apartment when the Glens made their announcement, and it was directly connected to her computer. She just had to look for the footage of the day before to clearly see Gwyneth and Wanda barging into Judy's apartment. There
Within seconds, Liam's eyes were bright red and savage as his fingers tightened around his phone. "What the hell happened?!" he barked.Larry was standing nearby, having no idea what it was about, but having an idea who. After all, only Gwyneth could invoke such a huge reaction from Liam in a split second!As such, he announced, "Everyone, the meeting's over. You're dismissed."Everyone in the room glanced at each other before they soon started to leave.At the same time, Liam listened to Wanda, feeling like he was on the verge of an outburst.Once he hung up, his teeth were clenched as he turned toward Larry. "Cancel every meeting and appointment in the afternoon. Call our lawyers!"Having received his orders, Larry did not drag his feet and went straight to work.Hence, in just thirty minutes, Liam arrived with his lawyers at the precinct where Gwyneth was held. She was only kept in an interrogation room for questioning. While the rule was usually for the officers to keep
