As Liam moved to confront Buck with his team, it inadvertently alerted their adversaries.Another group of thugs, worried that they might expose themselves, decided to change the plan and leave with the drugs.They intended to flee from the scene, but other factors in play prevented them from escaping.Gwyneth smirked sarcastically.After she found the address, she checked the time. She realized that waiting for Liam's return was not an option given the urgency of the situation.Unwilling to sit still, she forwarded the location to Liam's phone.Alone, she left the concert and raced down the stairs to go after them.Shortly afterward, a black luxury car was parked horizontally in the middle of the bridge, effectively sealing off the gang's only route.The vehicles had no choice but to come to a halt.What took her by surprise was the presence of Digby Curry, the drug lord behind this deal, among the group.Upon pinpointing their location, she learned the details of Digby's gl
Blood gushed out from his forehead. The pungent smell of blood filled the air.After Digby was killed, his goons panicked. They raised their guns and fired wildly.Despite the police officers wearing bulletproof vests, they provided little help against them.After Gwyneth found a gun, she destroyed Digby's base and returned via the same route at top speed.Her sniping skills were impeccable. Every shot was aimed to kill, she took out one target with each shot.Her presence intimidated two of Digby's goons. After a momentary daze, they focused solely on taking her down.Two bullets were fired at Gwyneth.She dodged one of them nimbly while the other hit the car window. The shards of window glass just barely grazed her exposed skin.Liam saw this, and his pupils shrank drastically. He grabbed a gun and decisively took out those men.The last two uninjured goons finally fell to the ground.Some were killed, while others suffered serious injuries. The scene was chaotic.Af
Being her best friend, Aubrey could immediately tell that Gwyneth was feeling bored to death in the hospital and needed her help escaping… And after a grin, Aubrey was prompted to say, “…You know, I still need to alter my dress for the show… Would you like to come along to watch?” The answer was obvious, and after some quick discharge procedures, they were gone like the wind, much to Liam’s annoyance when he finally returned with some food! Rubbing his temples in the empty ward, the angered man got his phone out to give Henry a call… “Tell your girlfriend to return my wife…! Now!” Naturally, this left Henry shocked. What the hell? Shouldn’t he be the one demanding for Gwyneth to return his sweetheart? Regardless… Liam was a very jealous man, and it was best not to enrage him any further… With that, Henry told him that he’d deal with the situation before hanging up and giving Aubrey a quick text to ask where she was… Fast forward to about half an hour later, Henry arrived at t
Hayden had always been an ambitious businessman… and knowing how he operated, Gwyneth couldn’t help but frown before muttering, “…Try to see if he has any other goals for returning. Stat.” “Roger that.” After the call ended, she suddenly heard Liam, who had overheard the entire call, ask, “…What’s the deal with him this time? Is he seriously still harassing you?” Realizing that Aubrey and Henry had left, and they were now pretty much alone, Gwyneth paused for a moment before sighing. “…Before that, I admit that it was wrong of me to run off like that earlier… Could you please forgive me…?” Watching as she tiptoed and planted a kiss on his lips, Liam, who had been holding his desires back for ages now, couldn’t help but return it… A long, passionate kiss later, the blushing Gwyneth finally muttered, “…Um… are you not mad anymore…? Also, I can handle Hayden on my own…” Her gaze was affectionate as she said that, and after gulping a little, Liam simply responded with another
Successful collaborations required integrity from the very start, and knowing that, Gwyneth made sure to tell him all about her history with Hayden, and how she learned about the Spencer Group’s attempted involvement with his company. This, thankfully, was enough to win Waldo’s respect. “You truly are something else, Ms. Glen! It’s genuinely an honor that you took the consideration to invest in my company… And you know what? I’m open to transferring thirty-five percent of my shares to you!” said Waldo with a chuckle. “…Thirty-five?” replied Gwyneth who was wondering why he wasn’t afraid of her taking advantage of him. Thinking that she was unsatisfied with that, Waldo paused before saying, “…It can be raised as long as it’s fair for both of us.” Watching as he anxiously lowered his glass, Gwyneth quickly replied, “No, no, I believe you’ve misunderstood me, Mr. Spencer… How about… Just fifteen percent instead?” Truth be told, she hadn’t invested in his company for the profit.
In the dead of night, Hayden got straight to work hacking into Waldo’s system… but unbeknownst to him, Gwyneth was two steps ahead of him. She had switched the files out as a trap, though she also made sure to get Waldo to create a backup plan… and with that in mind, Waldo was immediately alerted when Hayden initiated his ploy! Rolling out of bed with a yawn, he walked to his computer to see what was going on… and upon realizing what Hayden was doing, he instantly felt infuriated! To think that Hayden would deploy such unethical actions on his small company! This wouldn’t do! If it was a fight Hayden wanted, then it was a fight he was going to get! With that in mind, he quickly gathered all the breach evidence that he could before giving Gwyneth a text. She deserved to know what had happened! Since Gwyneth had been expecting something like this to happen, she easily awoke when she received Waldo’s message. After skimming through it, she quickly got to her feet to give him a call…
Following another death glare, Liam retorted, “As if!” After saying that, he stood in front of Gwyneth, completely blocking Hayden’s gaze. Throughout the exchange, Gwyneth didn’t say a single word, which automatically meant that she had no issues with whatever Liam had just said. Understanding that, Hayden simply chuckled before dusting his coat and walking off… Sure, he hadn’t attained what he wanted, but the fact that he managed to get Liam so riled up was pleasing enough for him. Speaking of Liam… Watching as the man stared disappointedly at her, Gwyneth quickly cleared her throat before explaining, “Before you overthink, please know that I never meant to hide anything from you. It’s just… I heard that you had some important things to attend to today, and I didn’t want to distract you…” She sounded genuinely remorseful, and after a while, Liam couldn’t help but grumble, “…At least let me know before you meet up with Hayden. Remember, you’re mine.” Truth be told, Liam was
Honestly, Hayden had been on alert ever since he left the café. After all, it didn’t make sense for Gwyneth to be so calm with the technology in his hands. With that in mind, he quickly returned to his hotel to scan through the data… and sure enough, none of the information remotely touched green technology! He had been duped! Now infuriated, the only thing on his mind was to give Waldo a piece of his mind…! Moving back to Gwyneth, she had a feeling that Hayden was already at the Spencer Group. After all, Wanda sounded quite frantic, and she had probably been notified by Waldo once he learned of Hayden’s arrival. Despite knowing this, she remained calm and simply replied, “…Continue keeping an eye on them. I’m on my way.” After ending the call, she glanced at the man who was still focused on his meeting… and at that moment, Liam looked up as well. Their eyes met for a moment… and after such an affectionate exchange of gazes, Gwyneth couldn’t help but smile before focusing on gett
