Once they were both in his office, Dwight glared at Ellery for the longest time before finally growling, “Be honest with me, boy…! Who did you insult recently? There has to be someone since we have barely ever been reported before this!”

“B-but I haven’t insulted anyone…! I’ve been so busy with work that I wouldn’t have had the time to do such a foolish thing! The only people I have in mind are… Are… Wait. Do… Do you think Liam was the one? With how underhanded he is, that has to be the case!” declared Ellery as he slammed his fists against the table.

Dwight, for one, was on the same page, but… So far, all of Liam’s attacks had been done openly. Such a stealthy approach just didn’t fit his style… What’s more, even if they were right, they barely had any evidence that he was the culprit.

Knowing that his bumbling son wouldn’t be of much help, all Dwight could do was abandon his dignity and start pulling some strings…

It was shortly after when Liam learned about Dolton’s situatio

    Sure, he had hurt Judy for the sake of getting back at Bianca back then, but… After that fiasco, he realized that it was wrong of him to have done that. After all, despite her shortcomings, she was still his daughter… and he wasn’t about to hand her to that family of snakes! He, for one, was well aware that everyone in that family was in a constant struggle for dominance… and that didn’t exclude Ellery! To make matters worse, Ellery wasn’t exactly the brightest businessman, and his lifestyle left little to be desired! Really, arranging a marriage between Judy and him was akin to simply throwing her to the wolves! What’s more, if Gwyneth was secretly behind all this… then he had even less reason to want to participate! Helping the Doltons would indirectly be a declaration of war in that crazy woman’s eyes! Following that thought, he quickly shook his head and snapped, “You truly are incapable of thinking long-term, are you…?! I don’t care what you say, I’m not letting Judy marry t

    Trying his best not to lash out at every single person he crossed, Dwight began storming to the AMC Group’s main office… and despite the receptionist’s best efforts, she was unable to stop him from kicking Gwyneth’s door open! “So the report regarding our food standards wasn’t enough…?! You had to declare our involvement in the money laundering racket too?! You make me sick, Gwyneth…!” …What? Though she did rat them out regarding the food incident, she knew nothing about the latter. Regardless… Lowering her fountain pen, she sneered before replying, “First of all, I’m assuming you have no proof of any of those accusations? Secondly, I don’t think it’s wise of you to be causing such a racket in my office…” “So you’re still playing dumb…?!” “I have nothing to admit if I did nothing wrong. Now, then… Until you come back with proof, please leave. In case you haven’t noticed, I’m no pushover like Gaspard…” scoffed Gwyneth who was ready to call security in to drag him out. Howeve

    Though Liam was usually straightforward when it came to admitting what he had done, he couldn’t help but hesitate a little this time. After all, he knew very well that Gwyneth didn’t like him meddling in her affairs, and… Since she had cooked this wonderful meal for him, it probably meant that she already knew the answer anyway. With all that in mind, he ultimately placed her in his arms before muttering, “…I was…” Feeling her heart melt a little when she heard that, Gwyneth replied, “…And why did you? I thought you had already made peace with the Dolton Group…” “…You’re… not upset?” asked Liam who was more surprised than anything. “…Why would I be? That aside, you haven’t answered my question,” replied Gwyneth in a slightly playful tone. “…It was because of you… It was right after you told me that Dwight had threatened you, and I… I just couldn’t stand you being treated like that…” muttered Liam who still felt angry thinking about that day. Smiling broadly, Gwyneth nodded

    The fact that they were gutsy enough to frame Liam meant that they already had everything planned out… and even the truck driver insisted that Liam was the one who had ordered the timbers! Hell, they had even gone so far as to fabricate voice recordings and ledgers that could all be considered evidence against him! With all that in mind, Liam soon found himself sitting in a dimly lit room with two municipal councilmen continuously pressuring him to crack. One of them was Jerry Stilton, one of the inspectors under Ellery’s payroll… “Well, Mr. Luther? Do you admit to your crimes?” Remaining as calm as ever, Liam replied, “Again, I was framed, and as for the recording… There were several other voices in the mix. Who’s to say that that voice really belonged to me? And how are you so sure that the ledgers point to my account?” “Hah! As if you’d use your public account when dealing with jerrybuilders!” snapped Jerry, fully intent on pinning the crime on Liam. Watching as Liam glare

    Root's efficiency was unquestionable. In ten minutes, he had gathered evidence and sent everything to Gwyneth's phone.It was proof that the journalists were under the Doltons' payroll and waited at the airport to make a scene.However, that begged the question—how did the Doltons find out that she and Liam were at the airport?Still, she glanced sideways, keeping impassive as she texted Root, telling him to keep digging just before Liam glanced at her phone in suspicion.Unsurprisingly, Liam was the one who leaked the news that he was at the airport.Gwyneth put away her phone, unable to come up with a reason as to why Liam would do this. She did not tell Root to keep digging either, instead turning to Liam and asking the question bluntly.Liam appeared taken aback before chuckling as he brushed his warm palm over her forehead."Don't you know the principle of playing the long game?" He smiled.Gwyneth rolled her eyes and slapped his hand off—she certainly knew, but she did no

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?

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!

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