Seeing the confused look on Liam's face, Layla pouted. "Liam, how could you forget where I study?"A hint of embarrassment flashed across Liam's face. "I was just thinking about something else and it slipped my mind for a moment." Seeing Liam's expression, Layla's face lit up with a mischievous smile. "Alright, alright, I can see it wasn't on purpose. I forgive you!"She then hopped aside, revealing the girl standing behind her. "Liam, let me introduce you to my best friend, Wendy Miers!"Wendy, a bit dazed and cute, immediately followed suit upon hearing Layla's words."Hello, Liam… I'm Wendy. I often hear Layla talk about you—""Wendy, what are you saying? I don't talk about my dearest brother-in-law that often at school..."Before Wendy could finish, Layla quickly interrupted her, her face turning red.Wendy, slow to react, finally realized her mistake and hurriedly explained, "Layla doesn't talk about you that often at school...""Alright, alright. It's better if you don'

Even though she did not know how Liam met such a wealthy and attractive friend in the provincial capital, Lucy's appearance made Layla feel a great sense of crisis."Layla, what's wrong?" Liam asked when he saw Layla lower her head and sigh."It's nothing..."Layla responded in a muffled voice, keeping her head down as if lost in thought."Liam, the family was talking about Howser a few days ago. I was back on campus then, so I wasn't at home! At that time, I thought that if only I had been home, there wouldn't have been so much resentment in the family!"Layla quickly raised her head and, with some grievance, said, "I've always known that you're very capable, Liam. There must've been some misunderstanding in that matter..."Layla seemed to be trying to explain the family's attitude at the time.Liam saw Layla's expression and smiled. "It's okay, Layla, I understand. You don't need to worry. I don't actually care much about those things..."Layla became anxious upon hearing Lia

"There's nothing to blame yourselves for," Liam said, shaking his head with a smile as he watched the scene unfold.Jackson Hughes exhaled deeply. "That's a relief, Liam. I'm glad you're so understanding and not holding it against us. Otherwise, Layla would've skinned me alive!"You're nothing like the rumors say," he added, raising his head to look at Liam with small, inquisitive eyes.Liam's smile broadened. "Oh? What do the rumors say about me?"Jackson shook his head. "They say you're unambitious and incompetent, relying on the Lloyd family. Worst of all, they claim you have a terrible temper and even hit your in-laws! Your temperament seems fine to me."Liam chuckled softly at Jackson's words. It seemed the Lloyd family had been spreading quite a bit of gossip about him in South City.Layla's angry voice cut through the conversation. "Jackson, have you said enough? Do you think what I told you is true, or do you believe the rumors outside?""Of course, what you said is true

"Liam, don't worry. With me here, when you work for my dad's company, no one will say anything bad about you!" Jackson said confidently, thumping his chest to emphasize his point."Once you start working at my dad's company, everyone will know about your situation, and those who gossip about you will gradually decrease," he added earnestly, looking at Liam.Layla chimed in, "That's right, Liam! If you've not been working, you should give Jackson's company a try. The Hughes Group is well known throughout the Qyn Province! The Hughes Group is quite powerful, even more so than the Lloyd Group!" You should really consider it! After all, your friends are so impressive…"Layla trailed off, concern evident in her eyes. Knowing that Liam did not seem to have a formal job, Layla began to worry for him. After all, having impressive friends only meant that Liam was a decent person.To truly change his situation, he needed to be impressive himself. If he could get a job at Hughes Group, it

Iman sat at the back, his face equally filled with anxiety. "How could this happen!"Upon hearing Jackson's words, Layla finally realized the gravity of the situation.Jackson lost any desire to eat. He stood up, anxiously pacing back and forth."I have no idea! Everything started when we arrived, but we didn't do anything unusual!"Jackson knew his father's character well. His father was calm even when facing a collapsing mountain, so what could have happened to make his father panic like that?The more he thought about it, the more it made Jackson nervous.He was not sure if it was just his imagination, but he seemed to hear a series of frantic noises coming from outside their private room.Jackson's anxiety affected everyone else in the room.Layla also grew tense but still tried to comfort him. "Don't worry. I'm sure it's nothing!"Jackson could not sit still. "Something must've happened! Otherwise, my dad wouldn't be so worried!"Due to Spencer's orders, he did not dare
