Liam's interference changed the essence of the matter. In the dimness, the air was filled with hostility. The two men were like some volatile that could go off in any second and devastate the whole area. "Your woman? Seems like you have a bad memory, Liam. You and Rita have divorced." Oliver straightened his back and looked at Liam with mockery in his eyes. Liam's face became dark instantly at Oliver's provocation. But the angrier he was, the more complacent Oliver was. "She can be with whoever she wants to now, and you have no right to interfere." Oliver said as he reached his head out to take Rita back to his side. But Liam snapped his hand back. "Divorce? That's nothing but just a piece of paper. She's mine, for the whole of my life." "Nobody covets her." Liam declared in a domineering way, fretting Oliver. Oliver had reservations before, worrying that he might tarnish Ritas reputation since she and Liam were still legally married. But now? He had nothing to worry ab

"Liam, what did you buy?" smiling, Jacob walked up to Liam and asked. Liam looked aloof. "What? I have to report to you now?" Frightened, Jacob shook his head hurriedly. He poked at the roses lying conspicuously in the back seat, asked. "Liam, you didn't just go to buy these flowers, did you?" "You got a problem?" Liam said, nonchalance in his voice. Jacob raised a brow. "Didn't you say I am tacky? Then why did you still buy flowers?" Liam paused and turned on his heels, those onyx-like eyes of his fixing on Jacob. "Have you found out who took Nora, where is she now, and who is behind all this?" "No." Embarrassed, Jacob said scratching his head. "Well." Liam announced curtly, his face turned cold instantly. "Then why are you still here?" Oh, shit... Who is he, where is him? Cam he take back what he has just said. Jacob zipped his mouth and left to get on his task, not daring to utter another sound. Liam drove to Rita's. Right now in the Brown family. "Noah, you still

Liam was surprising Rita today. She couldn't resist the urge to glance at him some more. Whether it was an illusion or not, she felt that she wasn't the only one who had changed. He seemed to have changed as well. Not as cold as before, a little more talkative. "What, is there anything on my face?" Maybe she'd lapsed off for too long. Liam's voice rang out in her ear. Rita put the rose down and picked up her bag. "I've got something important to take care of." Shed agreed on three days with Jason, and today was the first. If she even didn't go to school, she also have no time to waste. She had to take control of the situation, or she wouldn't make it in time. Looking at her silhouette hurrying away, Liam's bright eyes dimmed slightly. Zoe saw his depressed state for what it was. She looked at the independent girl in the distance and chuckled as she turned to the man before her. "That Rita... don't mind her, Liam. Ive spoiled her out of manners." "It's fine." The man too

Rita was taking the things to the dressing rooms on the second floor when a svelte, pretty girl came up from the front. Even from a distance, she was sure that this was Raymond's secretary- Susie Williams. In her past life, because of the Colt affair, Susie and gang had been big characters up on the tabloid front pages for a whole month. At that time, you could find their faces just from a casual glance at a tabloid magazine, so Rita's impression of Susie was still fresh. "Raymond's suit?" Looking at the things in her hand, Susie walked up with an air of arrogance. "Hand it to me." "Hand it over already!" Her hesitation seemed to irritate Susie. Rita examined the woman before her, gaze falling on the phone bag belted to her waist. As Susie yanked at her, Rita suddenly loosened her grip. Susie fell over backwards on the floor, the clothes and makeup scattering in a mess over herself. "I'm - I'm sorry." Seeing that, Rita scrambled up. But she didn't help Susie up. Instea

The long, deep kiss had Rita short of breath, and her face flushed an unusual red. She tried to push Liam off her, but the man held her even tighter, until she couldn't move. The embarrassment and awkwardness of the situation gave her a migraine. Especially being kissed in full view of the public. The entire café was stirred up now. "Mommy, they're kissing over there." An infantile voice warbled from the side. A girl blinked her large doe eyes seriously. "Mommy, I want a kiss too." The girl's mother cleared her throat and covered the girl's eyes for shame. Jacob turned around himself, looking out the glass window and snickered, ... in broad daylight, too." His voice was a low murmur, as if talking to himself. But Rita heard every word, and her face lit aflame as she wished she'd turn transparent. To stop the kiss, she bit down on his lower lip. Accompanied by the scent of blood on her tongue, Liam's movements stopped. "Rita..." Rita took the chance to push him off. Blu

Rita was quite shocked over Liam coming to live in the Brown household. But after her shock, she was also quite moved. She wasn't stupid; she understood why Liam had moved over to the Brown house. He probably wasn't about to give up. In other words - if the Mountain wouldn't go to Mohammed, Mohammed must come to the Mountain... Rita had known Liam for years. In her knowledge, that man was always the same, cold way towards anyone. She never thought that he'd change for her one day. Even going so far as to forget his identity and status and move to the Brown household. The still lake of her heart started rippling under a warm breeze. "Don't just stand there, Rita. Wash your hands and come eat dinner." Maybe she'd stared off into space for too long, but Zoe started urging her. "Oh, and bring me that rib soup." "The soup's too hot, Mom. I'll do it." Liam said, getting up and heading to the kitchen. Looking at how attentive he was being, Zoe's bearing was one of a mother-in-

Rita's line brought the bustling office into dead silence. Everyone looked over to Jason in unison. Jason lifted his gaze to meet Rita, fingers tapping the tabletop, as if considering something- Tap. Tap. Everyone remained quiet, and the tapping against the table was especially crisp. Rita and Jason stayed there, testing each other to see who would be the first to crumble and speak. The room seemed quiet, but undercurrents roiled. Especially those whod had their eyes on the assistant general manager's position for a long time - they really had it in for Rita now. "The responsibility of the assistant general manager's position is too great, Mr. Snow. I feel like it should be left to someone more capable." Matthew spoke first, prodding Charlie with a nondescript gesture. "What do you think, Mr. Powers?" "That's right. Assistant general manager is an important spot. You can't hand it over to someone with an unknown background just because they resolved one crisis for the c

Connor stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking down at Rita on the ground floor through his gold glasses. A savage envy came on him at once. He had spent ten years in the company. Over the years, he had been conscientious and dutiful. He considered himself a shoo-in for the vice-General Manager. But to his surprise, Rita, a girl of twenty, got the position. Connor thought that was a big humiliation for him. He glared at Rita and his fists were clenched. "You seemed so upset, Connor." Suddenly, a familiar voice came suddenly from outside. Connor looked taken aback. He turned his head, and noticed Ralph Watts smiling at him. Next second, Connor went very pale, and asked, "What are you doing here?" "I..." Before Ralph could say another word, Connor interrupted, "Wait, wait!" He stepped out of his office to check that they were alone. Ralph sneered. He settled himself comfortably in a chair and crossed his legs. "Don't worry. No one took much notice of me. Ever

Rita looked at him in surprise. Then she smiled, but her cheeks were bathed in tears. "How?" The tears almost broke Liams heart. He had said some pretty hurtful things to her and broke her heart. "I will love you with my whole heart, I swear!" he said earnestly. "Are you serious? You love me?" asked Rita skeptically. Liam put her head on his chest and said slowly, "Do you hear that? The beat of my heart. I'll love you until it stops beating." Rita looked at the determined look on Liam's face, tears fogging her eyes. She wiped her eyes, and a slight smile touched her lips. "Do you still remember what you said before? You said you never, never will love me. You said my love was worthless," Rita said calmly. Liam was hanging on to her every word, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He repented of having said so. "You said..." Rita continued, but before she could say another word, Liam kissed her on the lips. He kissed her again and again. "Don't say it, Rita. I know I w

Then the door swung open and Liam came into sight, closely followed by Jacob. The scowl on Liams face deepened. Immediately, there was quite a lot of nervous energy in the air.But Michael's face did not change, though he felt the anger coiling inside him. He held a glass of red wine and put a smile on his face when he turned to Liam, "Welcome, Wilson! Get a drink?"Liam glanced at him but made no reply. He sat on a sofa, crossing his legs.Michael sneered and continued, "If you want to come here next time, it's just really easy. I will open the door for you. There's no need to break down my door. After all, your car is worth than my door.""It's a warning, Michael. Rita means the world to me. So, if you hurt her again, my car will smash into you! It will be wise not to test me in any way," he said coldly.That was fairly strong language, which made Michael's face darken. He took one sip of the wine and said, "I'm not sure I know what you mean.""Bring him here!" Liam said to Jacob.V
