"Don't you think I want to see her in person as well?"Liam rarely showed such a disheartened expression."But I don't have the guts to face her! I'm afraid she won't forgive me!"It turned out that someone as formidable and domineering as Liam had weaknesses as well. There were even times when he couldn't get what he wanted.As a man himself, Alex understood Liam's current dilemma the most."Mr. Liam, as long as you haven't committed anything that goes against one's principles, I believe that once you resolve the misunderstandings with Lana, she'll definitely return to your side."Liam shook his head. "It wasn't a misunderstanding that caused us to break up. It was because we didn't trust each other enough. To be more precise, it was my lack of trust in Lana that led to this situation."Nadia immediately caught on to the situation. "Actually, Lana is a straightforward person. If you treat her well, she will reciprocate tenfold. However, she has one fatal flaw—she lacks a sense

Emilia glared fiercely at Alex, not caring about the other shareholders present."You better explain everything now. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving."Alex patted his chest mockingly. "Oh my, how scary!"Before Emilia could continue, some shareholders began to speak up."Emilia, just shut up. Do you really think you've taken over the Watson family?""Hmph. We've had enough. We don't want to play along with your little show anymore. You're even collaborating with foreigners to harm our country. Where is your conscience?""Mr. Watson, hurry and get rid of her. I don't want to see her any longer."Those words from the shareholders left Emilia bewildered.Her eyes reddened as she stared at Alex. "What are you guys doing?"Alex decided it was time to reveal the truth. "Just as you heard earlier, during this time, we decided to put up a show to test you. Unfortunately, you didn't pass our test. You're out."Emilia was still confused. She turned to look at the shareholder

Before Nadia could react, she suddenly saw Wayne leading a group of people to the conference room. After knocking on the door, Wayne entered and said, "Mr. Watson, these police officers request our cooperation."Upon seeing the police officers and Maverick behind Wayne, Emilia's heart skipped a beat.Why was Maverick here? Did anyone here have something to do with a case? Otherwise, why would the police be here?Without waiting for Danny to speak, Emilia immediately assumed the role of the head of the company and stepped forward. She first greeted the incoming police officers, "Officers, please come in. Everyone here is part of the Watson family, and we will surely cooperate."Emilia's words elicited a chuckle from the old employees of the Watson family who were present. Wasn't she a part of the Cooper family just this morning? Now, she had seamlessly transitioned back to being a part of the Watson family. Emilia seemed to consider herself a chameleon.After welcoming the

"Mr. Watson Senior, even if the kid was pulling a prank, you should still let the police investigate the matter. This is a murder we're talking about. We shouldn't treat it so carelessly.""Exactly. It's no use to shield Emilia without regard for the truth of the matter. If you stop this investigation now, the victim might be you in the future."Danny's expression wavered after hearing the two shareholder's words. He had raised Emilia since she was a child. He firmly believed that she would never do such a thing."What do you know?" Danny defended Emilia once more. "This is all just a dispute between two kids. We adults shouldn't interfere in their matters.Nadia and Alex, who were eating popcorn, couldn't help but smile bitterly at Danny's words.Even at this point, he was still speaking up for her. Those who didn't know might think Emilia was Danny's biological granddaughter instead.The police initially intended to take both Maverick and Emilia back to the police station to in

The conference room was silent. Everyone was fuming with anger as they cast furious and hateful glares at Emilia, wishing to rip her apart on the spot.Seeing this, Emilia took advantage of the moment before anyone could react and rushed toward the door."Stop!"The two police officers with years of experience were quick to sense something amiss and immediately stepped forward to block Emilia.With no way out, Emilia quickly reached the nearest window at the conference room entrance and opened it."Stay back! If you come any closer, I'll jump."The people present calmly watched Emilia's antics. No one had the intention to approach and persuade her to come down. Only the two police officers, facing the pressure, tried to persuade her."Come down, Ms. Cooper. The charges of murdering Mitchell and others haven't been confirmed. You still have a chance to redeem yourself. "As long as you cooperate with the investigation and confess, we will definitely request leniency for you from
