Before Haley could catch herself, her feet had already slipped off the staircase.She gasped as her head was about to hit the stairs railings, but then someone caught her.Haley found herself back in Liam's arms, this time his hold on her didn't feel forced as he held her securely. “Are you alright?”Why did he care?Haley blinked at him, then her attention turned to Leah who covered her mouth, a shocked look registered on her face. “Oh, my gosh! Are you alright, Haley?”Leah asking the same question as Liam worsened Haley's mood especially when it was Leah who tripped her just now. “I'm fine, I guess… since you didn't succeed in making me fall.” Haley stepped in front of her, folding her hands. “What was that for, Leah?”“What are you talking about?” Leah put on a confused look. “Just because you hate me doesn't give you the right to pin the blame on me.”And Haley was the fool who would fall on her own. “Be grateful my body didn't touch the ground. You would have shared the same

~As Haley returned to Grandma Lily's room, the man's words echoed inside her mind.That heartless man!Why should she even care? As long as he signed the divorce, she'd have no more business with him.“Where's Willy? Did he leave already?” Grandma Lily wrinkled her brows, her tone filled with worry.Haley murmured, “He's gone, Grandma. But don't worry about us, Liam and I are doing fine.”“Really?” Grandma Lily looked doubtful. “Why do you appear sad instead?”“Oh, Grandma, but I'm alright.” Haley forced a smile.Still, Grandma Lily scrutinized her with narrowed eyes, reminding Haley of Liam's piercing gaze. “You've always said the same thing, Dear. Won't you tell Grandma the truth? I know that boy, Willy, has his father's temper. He says harsh words sometimes!”“Liam is kind to me. Don't let the rumors make you think otherwise, Grandma.”Haley wasn't covering up for that heartless man. She'd feel guilty if telling the truth would impact Grandma Lily's health. After all, the Old Wo

Haley struggled with all her might, kicking and flailing her arms, but the bodyguards held her in a firm grip, not allowing her room to escape.“Liam!” She called out to the man who only stared at her impassively without blinking. “Why are you just standing? Won't you stop them!?”But her words were met with silence. Haley's body shook all over, as the sharp edge of the needle approached. “William Nash-” she cried, and her voice died down when the Nurse jabbed the needle in her arm. “Hey, Young Lady, please stay still,” the Nurse said, pressing the sore spot on her arm. This wasn't a mere blood collection, they just wanted to torture her. Haley didn't need to guess that the Nurse, Liam's mother, and Leah were in this together. “Ouch! Can you please remain calm?” The Nurse hissed when the needle popped out of her arm. Haley bit her lips hard to put up with the numbing pain. As the Nurse put the needle back in the same spot, her whole energy evaporated and her head swirled with d

…She hung up?Hearing the beeping sound from the other end, Liam fought the temptation of slamming his phone on the desk!How dare she hang up on him?Since Haley rejected his call, he now believed that she hadn't been kidnapped from the hospital.But could she move on her own when her body was so weak?“Haven't you retrieved the surveillance footage!?” Liam snapped at the bodyguard standing in front of him. Inside the vast living room, the walls echoed with his voice. The bodyguard stood stiffly. “We went through each security system at the hospital, Mr. Nash. It was as if she vanished from the hospital.”That was strange.At the same time Haley disappeared from the hospital, the surveillance cameras malfunctioned, and that footage was lost. No one admitted to seeing her either. How could she slip away so swiftly. Did she have superpowers to just stand up and leave on her own when she was unconscious?Liam waived a dismissive hand at the bodyguard, sending him away. If they'd t

Joye continued, “That's why I've been having second thoughts about reporting it. Andrew Woods was seen dropping the Madam off at IvoryRains Apartment Building. She visited his company and spent hours inside his office, and all the employees at DG Jewelry Corp are having speculation that they are in a relationship.”“One more thing…” Joye went on. “I heard someone kidnapped Madam from the hospital so I looked into it through my private agent. It was Andrew Woods who bribed the hospital staff to sneak her out.”If the assistant had told Liam this like ten minutes ago, he would be shocked. But now, his anger only knew no bounds.So his assumption was correct. Haley was in a relationship with that man, and that was why she wanted to leave him for Andrew Woods!“I will deal with him until his whole family disappears,” Liam said between gritted teeth, his fist shaking. “Andrew Woods will regret ever laying a finger on my wife.”“Mr. Woods, literally destroying Andrew Woods will need a lot
