The group held their breath and listened attentively to the sounds in the parking garage.

Suddenly, they heard a noise.

Aubrey exclaimed, "It's coming from there!"

Gwyneth abruptly turned in the direction of the noise. The noise appeared to originate from a door on the floor.

"The sounds are coming from underground. I think she's down there."

Gwyneth calmly analyzed.

Before Aubrey could respond, Gwyneth had already made her way down to the basement.

Henry guarded Aubrey by staying close by. He also caught up with Gwyneth.

The sounds of someone struggling became audible as Gwyneth unlocked the basement door.

"Over there!" Gwyneth yelled and hurried downstairs.

The group went into the dark basement.

Henry used his phone to light up a small area.

Aubrey's eyes widened in surprise.

They saw a woman in front of them. Her mouth was taped, and her hands and feet were bound.

A glint of excitement and hope appeared in her eyes as soon as she saw the group. She struggled violently

    "What exactly is this faux Herman trying to accomplish?" Gwyneth murmured thoughtfully.Her face took on a worried expression as she suddenly remembered something.She rarely showed this kind of expression, so Aubrey was surprised."What's with your expression?" Aubrey asked anxiously.Gwyneth knitted her brows tightly and said, "There is truth in Liam's claim that there is something fishy about this. If there is something wrong with this president, then this hotel has a problem, and so does the project!"Aubrey and Henry both gasped. They had never expected things to progress in this manner.There was no time to lose, so Gwyneth asked Henry, "Do you know where Liam is right now? I must tell him the whole truth."Henry was flustered. He thought back to his morning conversation with Liam, his friend, who would sign the contract today."Speak!" Gwyneth appeared anxious, but she made an effort to restrain her feelings and remain composed."Liam. He's signing the contract, and I

    Gwyneth was at once amused and angry to hear Liam brag, though she was mostly exasperated. Making a face just then, she turned to leave.Seeing that she was giving him the cold shoulder, Liam hurried after her. He kept an eye on Gwyneth's pretty face from the side as they walked, feeling quite content as he asked, "Weren't you worried about me just now, dear? You're walking so quickly I swear you're trying to dump me.""I have no reason to stay since you're fine," she said coolly, feeling rather irked that she had worried over nothing.Liam frowned as he sensed her displeasure while he sweet-talked her at the same time. Gwyneth kept a straight face, though she was slowing down and listening. Just then, they ran into Henry and the others at the hotel lobby. Aubrey hurried to Gwyneth once she spotted her with Liam. She spared the latter a glance and could guess right then that he was fine.Turning back to Gwyneth, she asked, "What happened?""He saw through Herman Newman's pla

    The way Liam pouted like a child was a little too much!However, while Gwyneth was caught by surprise, Liam stopped coaxing her before she realized what was happening."You little…"She was definitely creeped out and was about to give him an earful but never did because of the weirdness she felt just then."Do you understand now? Are you still upset?" Liam asked, waiting for her response with twinkling eyes.Aubrey and Henry were still nearby. Having seen it all, they were looking expectantly at Gwyneth too.She cleared her throat and said flatly, "This had better not happen again."Liam was relieved right then—she was obviously not angry now.As the skies were getting darker, they all returned to their rooms.…Meanwhile, Hayden was feeling murderous rage as he sat on his broad couch and scrolled through the photos sent to him via email. The photos showed everything at Hotel Venti, including what happened when Gwyneth and the others found that crazed woman.His phone rang

    "I don't know yet, but soon," Hayden answered simply.Gwyneth said nothing, and she returned Elizabeth's phone after some small talk. Elizabeth smiled awkwardly and glanced at the screen to find that Hayden already hung up."Things are still tense, huh?" Gwyneth asked, remembering what had happened before."It's just a little argument, nothing more. Thanks for asking," Elizabeth replied with a stiff smile.Gwyneth nodded, just as Aubrey strode into the room and placed a bag of medicine on the couch. She appeared tired, since it took her a long while to get everything together. "Gwyneth and I got all these—see if you need anything else.""Thanks, but it's late. You should get some rest—don't let me keep you," Elizabeth said as she watched them. Aubrey nodded—at least she knew tact.She got up with Gwyneth in tow, but stopped just as they were at the door. "By the way, Henry's inviting us to a grill session tomorrow to relax and unwind. You should come too."Gwyneth turned t

    Gwyneth glanced through the menu casually and pointed at several dishes while Henry did the rest.Liam sat beside her and soon reached out under the table to hold her hand. Gwyneth was resistant, but Liam said begrudgingly, "It's not easy for me to hold your hand again, dear. Let me hold on to it a little longer."Gwyneth had no choice but to restrain herself as they waited for food to be served. Aubrey and Henry were sitting opposite them, while Elizabeth sat alone on another end.Naturally, she was glowering awfully as her jealousy flared. After all, she could only watch the way Liam looked at Gwyneth and at their interlocked fingers beneath the table.Still, the grilled meat was soon served—the chef cooked any orders the guests put in on the grill set nearby while the guests admired the scenery or watched them work.While Liam stared at Gwyneth's face, he thought that she had lost weight. He said, "You should eat more later. I'll help cut it up."Gwyneth sighed softly. "Bu

    After distributing the food, Gwyneth calmly sat down beside Liam and started eating elegantly.Forced to return to her seat, Elizabeth's grief welled up inside her, but she could only hold it in and watch Gwyneth with jealousy from behind. While Elizabeth returned to her seat with an awkward smile, Gwyneth could see the weird looks Elizabeth had been shooting in her direction. Even so, she kept eating as if things were perfectly fine, knowing that Elizabeth could not cause any trouble just yet.Liam's expression eased considerably after Elizabeth was gone as well, and he resumed slicing cutlets for Gwyneth and even adding seasoning. "This is a secret recipe. It's fantastic with grilled meat," he said softly as he poured sauce on the meat, every word and move filled with affection.Aubrey had to be impressed—Liam was always cold and haughty, only ever being gentle to Gwyneth and quickly reverting to his old ways with others.Seeing that it was true love, Aubrey was at once relie

    Everyone was left stunned by Gwyneth's revelation, though they soon came to the realization that Liam was calm because everything was under control.Henry sat down and huffed grumpily in turn. "So that's your play… You could have told me. I almost had a heart attack!"Liam looked up at him. "You would never have put two and two together if I did not tell you."In other words, Henry was beneath Gwyneth in wit.Henry was left fuming, but he did not argue and kept eating, though he would shoot Liam disgruntled looks from time to time.When that was done, Liam got up and took Gwyneth outside.He held her wrist very firmly, which gave her a sense of security she never felt before."Where are we going?" she asked in bemusement nonetheless."A road trip along the coast." Liam smiled, an indication that he was in a good mood.Aubrey wanted to go too—she never saw the beach even after arriving at Barnston Coast for a while.Henry saw that and insisted on joining. "A road trip?" he chi

    "I'm surprised Liam can be romantic." Aubrey blinked as she watched Liam hold out a hand to Gwyneth, inviting her to get into the helicopter.Seeing her reaction, Henry somehow had the confidence to say, "It's not like Liam is the only pilot around here. I can give you a ride too."His boastfulness left Aubrey scowling. "You know how to fly one?"Henry was silenced right then—he certainly could not learn to pilot a helicopter easily like Liam.Meanwhile, Gwyneth still could not quite process what was happening as Liam eagerly invited her to get onboard."Where are you taking me?" she asked."You'll know when we get there," Liam replied softly, a rare look of mischief showing on his face. "What, are you worried about my skill?"Gwyneth shook her head since she never thought that far—she was simply at a loss seeing a fresh expression on his face.Liam chuckled then. "I've already left a will on how to split my wealth. Would you still come with me knowing something bad could happe

    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.

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?

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!

Following that, Gwyneth began giving numerous helpful recommendations which eventually made Director Motley tear up a little.
