Lana's confidence in their relationship faltered upon encountering Liam today and noting his demeanor.Although she had initially believed Liam lacked the courage to leave, Lana was surprised when she observed his momentary hesitation before rapidly ascending the stairs.It seemed as if he had metaphorically extracted her heart, leaving a tangible void.While there was no physical pain, Lana found herself contending with an emotional ache."Understood! From this moment forward, we're done!"As Liam went up the stairs, the lingering echo of Lana's decisive words resonated in the air.Instinctively, he bolstered his legs with determination, moving forward with mechanical precision, climbing gradually. He bore an uncanny resemblance to a zombie.Parting with Lana was unbearable for Liam. Yet, if her happiness lay elsewhere with those older men, he believed it was better to let her go.This, he thought, was the last bit of dignity he could salvage for their relationship.Hencefort

Upon hearing Nadia's assertive words, Emilia's heart raced.Was Nadia declaring war against her?Yet, Emilia, true to her cultivated façade, remained composed, betraying no signs of panic.She responded with a sudden smile and asked, "Nadia, what on earth are you saying? I don't seem to understand."Nadia was well aware that Emilia was feigning ignorance, but her years of experience had honed her ability to detect lies.She refused to let Emilia manipulate the situation within the Watson family any longer."If you can't grasp a simple statement, what else are you capable of? With your level of intellect, why do you even aspire to become the heir of our Watson family? Where do you find the audacity?"Nadia's sharp retort left Emilia speechless. She couldn't fathom why Nadia had suddenly turned hostile. It seemed Emilia had arrived at the wrong time."Nadia, don't be upset. Weren't you about to head out? Hurry! Don't delay your important matters."Nadia, her handbag casually slu

Lana dedicated herself to helping Nicholas with the gardening duties at Marcel's residence.She was aware that Nicholas would go to great lengths to help her, even going so far as to endanger his own life if needed.Their collaboration reflected the deep trust that had blossomed between them during their years as apprentices.As Lana tirelessly worked in the courtyard, Marcel sat peacefully on the veranda, holding a cup of tea.The sky adorned itself in various hues of blue, with a gentle breeze caressing through. Marcel sported a subtle smile, reflecting a sense of contentment.After being rescued by Marcel, Lana would regularly engage in various fieldwork tasks alongside her fellow apprentices, making activities such as gardening a familiar routine.By the evening, Lana had diligently tended to every corner of Marcel's garden.Marcel, appreciating Lana's efforts, offered her a cup of tea.She accepted it gratefully and joined him on the veranda.

Lana's rejection cast a palpable sense of disappointment over everyone.Unable to suppress her curiosity any longer, Marion finally asked, "Could you please share what exactly happened?"Marion had withdrawn from all social interactions since the birth of Reagan, dedicating herself entirely to caring for him at the postpartum care center.Consequently, she remained oblivious to any events that might have unfolded outside during this time, including the incident involving someone impersonating Lana and her alleged involvement with various men.Mandy quickly filled her in on the details, leaving Marion stunned and speechless."The audacity of some people! I mean, seriously, why would they resort to impersonating something like this?"Lana's eyes gleamed with determination. "I won't allow these people to escape accountability.""So, multiple people were involved?" Marion mused for a moment before letting out a chuckle. "You're right. It does take more than one hand to clap in a sit

Everyone turned toward the direction of the sound and saw an elderly man with white hair, accompanied by a group of bodyguards, walking aggressively toward Lana."Lana, is she giving you a hard time? Let me know, and I'll get rid of her for you!"Hector, with a group of bodyguards, stood by Lana's side. He glared at Emilia as if he was going to tear her apart right there and then."Grandpa Hector!"Lana looked at Hector aggrievedly and said, "This woman and these two men have been saying all sorts of strange things to me, and they even offered me a thousand dollars to spend the night with them."Hector exclaimed in disbelief, "What! They actually dared to do that? Even the girl from the Watson family said that?"Emilia was perplexed by Hector's sudden appearance as she exclaimed, "Grandpa Hector! I … I was just speaking the truth.""Preposterous!"Hector sprayed Emilia's face with spittle as he roared, "How did the Watson family raise someone like you?" Lana took the opportun
