Violet and Liam spend a long time chatting in his room. By the time the two of them came out again, Liam had regained his composure.He was back to his proud and restrained self."Go ahead. Aren't you meeting Emilia tonight?" The alliance between Emilia and Adrian had become a thorn in Violet's side lately. "Take a look at what that traitor's up to!" Liam certainly hadn't forgotten about attending Emilia's dinner party. No matter what difficulties he was facing, nothing was more important than national affairs.He would eventually settle scores with traitors like Emilia. But for now, Liam would let her struggle for a couple more days.As for Adrian, he would make sure to expose his true colors. At the very least, he wouldn't let his parents' sacrifice be in vain.…Today, Emilia wasn't wearing her usual elegant attire. Instead, she chose to wear a wine-red velvet dress and apply heavy makeup.Charming and alluring, she exuded a captivating air.Even Adrian couldn't take his e

Liam's dark gaze remained as calm as ever. However, he was the only one who knew his inner turmoil. He could never remain composed when it came to matters that were related to Lana. She was his weakness.But he never expected Adrian and Emilia to use it against him. This time, they were forcing him to cooperate with them.Emilia began to flatter him again when she noticed his displeasure."Mr. Liam, it's not a loss for you to cooperate with Duke Adrian. It's a good opportunity for you to make a mark on history. You're a smart man—I'm sure you know what's best for you."Liam knew Emilia's words were both encouragement and a threat."Don't you find your actions despicable?" he asked.Adrian chuckled. He was pleased that Liam was finally willing to have a conversation with him."Mr. Kane, how can this be called despicable? I just know you very well."He had long noticed that Liam regarded Lana differently. Even though they had already broken up, he was certain Liam was still in

Liam could sense their skepticism, and he sighed. Eventually, he sat down in front of the trio. "Reaching out to you this time isn't solely about Lana," he began. "But since you don't want to help with me and Lana's matter, that's fine. It's a private matter between her and me, and there's no reason to trouble you guys." Due to David's incident, Billy now despised jerks more than anything in his life. Seeing Liam continue to ramble, he grew more impatient. "Old man, will you ever finish? Just get to the point, okay?""Who are you calling an old man?" A white-haired and well-dressed elderly lady suddenly walked over. Though her tone was stern, her gaze toward the Traffic Light Trio was exceptionally tender. In front of the elderly lady, the trio showed great discretion. They all stood up and looked at Violet with suppressed anger but dared not utter a word."In my presence, he's not qualified to be called an old man," Violet said as she gestured for them to sit. Following that

Violet trembled with fear when she saw Lincoln. "Lin … Linkin, how about I find you a girlfriend?"Lincoln was momentarily stunned. It had been a long time since Violet had spoken to him so kindly and warmly, especially since Liam and Lana broke up. Lincoln was well aware of the Kane family's temperament. When Violet suddenly treated him so kindly, there must be something she wanted him to do. Lincoln suddenly felt anxious and could only cautiously ask, "Why?"In Violet's mind, there could only be one reason, and it was because Lincoln liked men! However, since Lincoln didn't show it, Violet didn't want to disclose his sexuality and embarrass him. So she casually came up with an excuse, saying, "It's because you're getting older!"Hearing that, Lincoln felt as if he was struck by lightning. He had no clue how many times others had commented on his age that night. He couldn't help but doubt if he really looked that old. Even if Lincoln was growing old, his marriage wasn't som

"Pathetic singleton!"With Violet's backing, Billy shouted at Liam, then happily followed Violet to enjoy dessert.Liam was rendered speechless.He noticed that every time someone more popular than him appeared at home, he would become the one suffering.But these people were important in Lana's life, so he could only endure.Liam could endure, but Lincoln couldn't."Sir, they actually dared to insult you?" Lincoln tried to appear menacing, making a neck-cutting gesture. "Should I go …"Liam took a sip of tea. "Sure, go ahead. Kill them all and avenge me."Now, it was Lincoln's turn to lose composure. "What? K-Kill them?"Liam imitated his neck-cutting gesture. "Didn't you want to kill someone?""I-I didn't say that." Lincoln just wanted to scare Billy and the others. There was no intention to actually kill anyone."Then what are you blabbering about?"With that, Liam went to the dining room to enjoy dessert, leaving Lincoln alone in confusion.In the dining room, the Traf
