A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 8 Mother in Critical Condition
Finally, pushing the matter aside, Suzy returned to her room to start packing her luggage. It was fortunate that this business trip had been uneventful, and she wasn't just referring to the incident that had upset Desmond.Suzy tried hard to suppress her thoughts, not to dwell on Liam's face. Unfortunately, her mind had a mind of its own, persisting until her phone, resting on the table, began to ring incessantly. She hurried over to answer it, and as soon as she saw the hospital's number, her heart sank. Even her hand trembled unconsciously as she pressed the answer button. "Is this Miss Chase? Your mother suffered a sudden heart attack, and her condition is critical. She has been taken to the emergency room. Please come quickly!"Suzy's mind went blank, and she almost couldn't stand on her feet. But time didn't allow her any further delay. After just a few seconds of hesitation, she immediately rushed to change her flight. Only after she had boarded did she remember to as
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 9: Liam’s Mobile Number
She thought about what Liam had said to her.He mentioned he could cover her mother's medical expenses and find the best doctor for her!Now, this was the only option!Suzy frantically started searching for the phone numbers of her middle school classmates. Fortunately, she found one and begged him to add her back to the class WhatsApp group. However, to her surprise, after she had exited the group, Liam had also departed from it!"Can anyone reach Liam now?"She immediately sent a message to the group, not caring how others would privately discuss the matter.Soon, her classmate Daniel Mills responded, "Huh? Wasn't he in the group before? I saw him in it a few days ago. Why did he leave?""What’s so strange about him leaving? He's the CEO of Park Group now, a far cry from us ordinary folks. There's nothing for him to chat about with our bunch.""Haha, look at you being all bitter!"The group members gradually drifted away from the topic, and Suzy's message was quickly buried.

However, it wasn't Liam's voice on the other end; it was his personal assistant, John Smith, calling back.Suzy felt a bit disappointed but still wanted to give it a try. "I'm Mr. Park’s classmate, my name is Suzy Chase. Could you please pass on a message to him? I hope he can return my call.""Of course, Miss Chase. Is there anything else I can help you with?""...No, thank you."She hung up the phone, suddenly able to empathize with her mother's feelings when she had leaped from the building that day. In moments of desperation when she was pushed to the brink by unexpected circumstances, the thought of simply ending it all could become tempting!The hospital was chilly.In the late hours of the night, Suzy abruptly woke up on the companion chair, realizing she had dozed off. She glanced at her mother who was still asleep and adjusted the blanket for her.On her phone, she had received numerous messages from Wendy."Suzy, don't worry. I've already called my parents, and they agreed to

Suzy couldn't believe how quickly everything had unfolded, but at this point, she figured she should just go along with whatever he said. She didn't have the right to object.Wearing Liam's clothes, she couldn't help but notice the faint tobacco scent that clung to them, giving her an unexpected sense of comfort. Surprisingly, it brought her a sense of comfort, maybe because it helped ease her earlier anxiety.However, at that moment, her stomach decided to make a few untimely growls, and Suzy felt embarrassed. "Have you eaten?" "I ate," she replied, feeling awkward and not wanting to continue this conversation.Liam didn't press further. Instead, he checked his wristwatch and said, "I've arranged a VIP room for your mother with a dedicated caregiver. The doctor will notify you when she wakes up. For now, come with me."Suzy was puzzled. "Where… Where are we going?""To have dinner.""I already ate!"He smirked, and for a moment, his usually aloof and distant face showed a h

As she watched Liam finish his call outside, she then exited the car and walked over."This is Italy cuisine," he said, his voice slightly cold and low, like a cello."Ah." Suzy was a bit surprised. Did this mean that Liam remembered they were deskmates in junior high school? Or perhaps... he had known from the beginning.Standing next to Liam, Suzy couldn't help but feel like an odd fit. He looked distinguished in his sharp suit, clearly someone of high status, while she couldn't shake the feeling that her face might as well have had "employee" written all over it.As they entered the restaurant and took their seats, Suzy began to feel increasingly uneasy.What should she do in this situation? She couldn't just bring up memories from junior high, could she?In contrast to her awkwardness, Liam seemed to treat her like a friend he saw every day. He adjusted his shirt cuffs with his long, slender fingers, and then signaled the waiter to order a few dishes."Are you the one who is

Suzy felt as if lightning had struck her, and even John seemed momentarily stunned.John had been with Liam for a long time and had never seen him with any women. The fact that Liam had instructed him to purchase such items left no room for misunderstanding!"Alright, Mr. Park."Hearing this conversation, Suzy's face flushed, but in Liam's presence, she couldn't afford to appear overly hesitant. So, she feigned composure and diverted her gaze out of the window.She thought about it carefully beforehand and had agreed to Liam’s request willingly. Acting coy might only lead to him losing interest. After all, she didn't actually have a boyfriend. In the face of undeniable wealth and power, clinging to outdated ideals served no purpose! In simpler terms, it was a consensual agreement – he would provide the financial support, and she would pay him back with physical means.For now, the top priority was keeping Liam content. This way, at least in the short term, she wouldn't have to worry a

However, she didn't forget her responsibilities. After some thought, she said, "I'll make breakfast tomorrow."After all, there was no reason for a benefactor to serve her, right?Liam chuckled lightly, dressed in a dark loungewear, exuding a hint of laziness. He walked over, pulled out a chair at the dining table, and sat down. "You don't need to be so formal. After today's registration, you are legally my wife."Seeing him being so forthright, Suzy decided not to beat around the bush and asked directly, "Mr. Park, how long is the duration of our marriage contract? Should we consider signing an agreement?"After all, this was a business transaction, and she needed to set a timeframe for herself. In case Liam mentioned a duration that was too long, she needed to think about it carefully. It was to everyone’s knowledge that men possessed a substantial amount of time during which they could be considered eligible. When Liam got his divorce certificate, he would still be a highly sought-
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 15: Men Are Unreliable
Throughout the journey, Clive kept chattering about their childhood anecdotes, but not a single word made its way into Liam's ears.Upon arriving at the company, he didn't even bid Clive goodbye; he simply took the CEO's private elevator straight up to his office."Mr. Park, regarding the copyright infringement lawsuit against Golden State Corporation, do you need to hire a few more lawyers to deal with it?" His secretary knocked on the door and came in with some documents. "It's said that they've hired internationally renowned attorneys."Liam raised his hand to adjust his golden-edged glasses, completely unaffected, and signed his name at the bottom of the document with a pen. "No need. Leave the legal matters to Miss Burns when she returns. She will have full responsibility.""Is Miss Burns coming back to the head office?" The secretary's tone, which had just been somewhat worried, immediately lightened. "That's great. Golden State Corporation will sure lose this case with her h
