Amelia widened her eyes and glared at Liam. He was impossible to reason with."What do you want me to do so that you'll believe me?" she asked."Quit your job! Stay at home and don't go anywhere!" Liam spoke viciously as his hands tightly gripped the armrests of his chair. He feared that if he loosened his grip, he would lose control of the rage in his heart. He might not be able to refrain from hurting her then."That's impossible!" Amelia blurted out without thinking."Why is it impossible? What are you even working for?" Liam looked at her in disbelief. He couldn't believe that she refused to listen to him."I need money, so I have to work!" David was a greedy man. He had taken Liam's money, so for now, he wasn't causing trouble for Amelia. But she knew very well that once he used up all the money, he would come knocking again. David wouldn't be so obedient to listen to Liam. He wouldn't just get out of her life after taking that huge sum of money in one go."If you want

"It's getting late. You should go back. I'll send you." Liam took out some cash from his wallet. He then pulled the woman along and left.On the other end of the bar counter, Eric downed the wine in his glass. A smile appeared on his lip as he watched the two of them leave.The next day, the online news of Amelia and Oscar were suppressed. Instead, there was an update on the news between Liam and his new love interest.In the first photo, the two had walked out of the bar together. Perhaps because the woman had drunk too much, she was wobbly on her feet. Liam had wrapped an arm around her waist, half-embracing her.In the next photo, they were walking inside a building. The sign on the building stated that it was a certain hotel. It was quite obvious under the neon lights of the night.Amelia closed the news page and suddenly calmed down.She didn't know what she was thinking, but tears mysteriously began to fall.It wasn't her first time seeing news of Liam and his new love int

There was a long silence on the other end of the line.Just when Amelia thought that May wouldn't tell her anything, May replied."Madam, you know that I'd taken care of Mr. Prescott Senior and Madam Ember at the Prescott Manor. After you married into the family, I came with Mr. Prescott to Riverbay Residence. So I do indeed know a little about the Prescotts' past."Amelia grew nervous. May knew, but she wasn't sure if May would tell her."Mr. Prescott did indeed have an older brother." May's reply verified her suspicions.Amelia had a slightly complicated feeling in her heart. For some reason, she felt her heart ache out of nowhere. It was as if her heart was aching for the man who kept hurting her."Madam, I'll tell you about this matter, but please do not mention it in front of Mr. Prescott. Even now, Mr. Luke Prescott's existence is taboo to both the Prescotts and Mr. Prescott. No one should mention him in their presence at all." May earnestly reminded Amelia, fearing she wou

Amelia was a little surprised when she saw the man sitting in the living room. However, she didn't say anything.When she was about to go upstairs, he called out to her. "Why did you come back so late?"Amelia pursed her lips. She thought for a moment before walking over to him. She then sat on the couch on the other side of the room."I had dinner before coming back." Amelia was smarter this time. She didn't tell him who she had gone to dinner with; she just said that she had dinner before coming home. This was the truth, she wasn't lying.Liam didn't ask her who she had dinner with. He simply narrowed his eyes and studied her. He looked like he didn't quite believe her, but he didn't probe.Seeing that he didn't have any other questions, Amelia decided not to spend any more time with him. But Liam didn't seem like he intended to let her off just like that either. "Stay here for a bit. You can go to bed later."Amelia sat back down on the couch and quietly awaited his ne

When the traffic lights turned red, Liam looked at the side profile of the person next to him. He somehow felt his heart soften."You're attending as my female companion. If someone asks about you and you don't know what to say, just smile. If they insist, just push it onto me," Liam said.With that, Liam thought of a few potential scenarios that might happen at the banquet and felt a little annoyed. His voice took on a hint of impatience as well.Amelia had been looking at him and could clearly see the changes in his expression.She was a little nervous. She wondered if he had regretted bringing her along.Observing Amelia's silence, Liam looked at her. He felt a little upset when he saw the cautious and uneasy look on her face. He was simply telling her how to deal with any potential situations, but she was already getting nervous.He sighed. Amelia was completely different from that person, after all."Calm down. Don't think about the things you don't understand. I'm br
