When Liam sat down on the conference table, he forced out a smile and looked at everyone, and then he addressed everyone, doing his best to be professional and not look like a shy person to everyone.

An hour later, the meeting was over, and the board members and shareholders left, including his dad and mom, since they had some other things to do.

Mrs. Danvers appointed Amanda as Liam's personal assistant, since he was new to the business world, he needed to have someone by his side, who knew everything when it came to running a company, and according to Mrs. Danvers there was no one better than Amanda. So it was her job to teach him how to run the company.

Amanda showed Liam to his exquisite office. She also showed him the various studios, where movie shoots took place and introduced him to some staff that worked in the building.

    "Where do you think you're going, Liam?" Erin asked, frowning as she looked at Liam's back.The thing she hated the most was being disrespected by nobody, and when Liam was walking away without being dismissed by her, she felt extremely disrespected. After all, Liam was someone she had grown used to controlling, so such behavior from him was not acceptable.Frowning, Liam turned and faced her, and then he sighed helplessly, as he replied. "I'm going home." His voice sounded serious this time, not like how he used to talk to her when he was afraid of her and her family, now he was free."I didn't say you could leave, did I? Or have you forgotten your place?" Erin coldly asked. She had to convince her family that her and Liam were happily married, so she was not going to let him disappear again."So this is the contract husband you were telling me about?" Iris suddenly asked that, taking a step towards him, she examined Liam from head to toe.It was only when Erin said his name that she

    Liam instructed his butler to drop him off near the gate of the Lopez mansion, he didn't want the Lopez's finding out that he was now rich, so he decided it was best to walk on foot. Just to make sure they weren't going to suspect him of being rich, he even wore cheap clothes.When Liam approached the gate, he was expecting the guards to stop him from passing through the gate, into the Lopez yard, but to his surprise, they just shot him dirty looks but didn't stop him from entering the yard. The reason they didn't stop him from entering the yard was because Erin ordered them to let him inside the yard.Walking to the front porch, Liam hesitated for a second, before he finally rang the doorbell to the Lopez mansion.Looking around the place, he was reminded of just how much he hated the place, he had so many bad memories about this place. And he had no intention of coming back to the mansion, but he had to come anyway, cause if he refused that would be a breach of the marriage contract

    Liam was about to reply to Xavier's question, but Erin beat him to it, "What do you mean, by, 'what is he doing here?' He is my husband and so he has every right to be here," Erin seriously said, walking towards Liam and holding his hand. She turned and looked at her mother, and then she briefly looked at Xavier. They both had hostile stares as they looked at Liam who was nonchalantly standing next to her.Even though she didn't like Liam for some reasons, she had to pretend to be in love with him tonight, and to make people believe her, she was going to have to defend him from her family members, and take his side on everything."You, shameless bastard, why did you come back here?" Xavier asked coldly."I guess, he couldn't live on the streets, and so he decided to come back here... shameless." Mrs. Lopez snorted."Okay, mom stop it." Erin said. Sighing, she glanced at Liam before looking at her mom, "Shall we go? Unless, you want grandfather to scold all of us." Erin said to her mom

    After threatening him. Silence fell between them once more, this time there was silence until they arrived at Erin's grandfather's mansion, where the party was taking place.The mansion was decorated luxuriously, from top to bottom, beautiful chandeliers with shimmering lights hung up on the ceilings. It was expected as Mr. Miguel Lopez had thrown a party to celebrate his recent successes, and also to show off to the other first class families in the city that he was now doing business with the Danvers, whom he had just signed a collaboration contract worth billions of dollars with.Signing a collaboration contract with the Danver's was one of the few ways to reach the top of the pyramid in the city, and the Danvers rarely collaborated, so the collaboration was very worthy of showing off to his friends, as that would prove that the Lopez family was on another level.Inside the mansion, various people dressed in luxurious clothes were having conversations and lightly laughing while si

    'Shameless, liar, thief, he is all of it.' Erin thought to herself as she walked away from Liam.Liam told her that he was the new CEO of Multiversal studios, and knowing what a loser he was, she assumed it was a pathetic lie. After all, he was unable to get for a while, and then suddenly he became a CEO? She was not believing that.Liam was still standing on the same spot with a frown on his face. He thought she would believe him, but Instead she didn't. 'Well, I guess i have to show it and not tell.' Liam thought to himself.Just then Erin's grandmother walked up to him. And she scowled at him, looking at him from head to toe. She had hoped by now, this useless man would divorce her granddaughter, so that someone worthy could marry her. But that idiot was still with her, and she just wished Erin could divorce him at once."Good evening ma'am." Liam greeted her politely although he knew he was only going to get an insult from her. Well, It's what the Lopez's were good at."Useless b

    Erin was so angry at Liam, that she ended up slapping him across the face, so hard that she left a red handprint on Liam's cheeks.Shocked, Liam dropped the serving tray in his hands and touched his cheek which was in a lot of pain . The fact that Erin just slapped him for doing something that her family members told him to, irritated Liam so much."Don't ever do that again!" Liam warned, looking at her coldly, and then he turned And walked out of the kitchen leaving her standing in the kitchen with an emotio innless gaze. It had become her habit to slap him when she was mad, and he didn't like it at all. She always did that, it was like she enjoyed somehow.Liam walked out of the kitchen, and exited the mansion. He needed some fresh air, and somewhere quiet to surpress his emotion's. And the only quite place he could think of going was the small house, that was on the other side of the mansion. Only if his parents didn't insist on not letting him get divorced from Erin, then he would

    Alex practiced martial arts, Liam, however, didn't look like he practiced any, and so Drew and his friend Alex expected a one sided fight to take place inside the small house. With them beating Liam to a pulp of course. After all Liam didn't look like a fighter, he looked so soft, like someone who had never been in a fight before.Alex stepped forward and threw a fist at Liams face with all his mighty, and he was sure he was going to connect his fist with Liam's face, but what happened was shocking, as Liam easily dodged his attack and counter attacked with a very powerful blow to Alex's jaw causing him to stagger back, a teeth fell from his mouth to the ground, shocking both Drew and alex. Liam didn't stop there though, he continued his assault by launching a powerful kick on Alex's ribs, which sent him crashing on a wooden table on the other side of the room, the table broke on Alex's impact, and he instantly fainted.Eversince Liam found out that he was a rich heir, his butler had

    Liam knew Erin better to know that even if he refused to leave with her, it was going to be pointless, so he just got in Erin's car, and they drove off. 'Always trying to control my life this one.' Liam thought to himself. Erin acted like she owned him or something.On their way home, Erin kept thinking about how Iris was right, Liam was indeed having a sexual relationship with another woman, and she felt disrespected by him. But she didn't want to confront him, because Liam would have taken it the wrong way, he would think she was jealous. And she didn't want to look like that.

With none of them saying a word, it looked like everyones was lost in their own thoughts.Minutes later, they arrived at the Lopez mansion.

    Liam frowned. He wasn’t sure if it was worth trying to argue or convince her otherwise. Honestly, he didn’t want to protest too much and risk disappointing her, she was his mom, after all. And despite everything, a part of him still sought her approval. She was his mom after all, and it wouldn't hurt to fulfill her wish.Before she got far, Irene stopped and turned to face him, her expression a mix of tenderness and authority.“You’re part of this family’s legacy, Liam,” she said, her tone firm but not unkind, she just wanted him to understand for once. “I want you to be happy, of course, but happiness isn’t the only thing that matters. You need someone who can stand by you, someone who fits with what we’re building here. Your father and I have already waited long enough for you to make that decision on your own, but it’s clear you have no intention of doing so.” Her eyes narrowed, her voice gaining a sharper tone to it. “It’s not just about you, Liam. You and Megan both have responsi

    Liam’s footsteps were light against the cool tiled floor as he left Elena’s hospital room. He stared ahead, and there, near the a bench, he spotted his mother. She stood beside Aretha and Rachel, deep in conversation with the two sisters."...of course, dear, you can bring anyone else you'd like," Irene was saying, her tone as inviting as a seasoned host. "We’d love to have your whole family join us for dinner. It’s been too long since we’ve had a lively gathering at the house," she added, smiling brightly. She spotted Liam walking over towards them, “Liam agrees to it too.”Rachel’s eyes brightened with mild surprise. "That’s really kind of you, Mrs. Danvers. I’m sure our father would be happy to come along.""He certainly will," Aretha replied, her voice calm but assured. Her gaze briefly darted towards Liam, her eyes locking with his for the briefest moment before she returned her attention to Irene. "I’ll make sure he knows it’s an invitation we can’t refuse."Liam’s brows furrow

    “No, they’re not dating,” Aretha interjected, her tone sharp but smooth. She moved, stepping from behind Liam until she was standing beside him, her arm lightly brushing against his. Irene’s eyes darted with surprise as her gaze shifted toward Aretha. She hadn’t noticed her before, but now she took her in fully, her brows raising with intrigue. Her eyes lingered for a moment, clearly sizing her up.“Well, now, who is this?” Irene asked, her tone filled with curiosity as she studied Aretha more intently. A smile tugged at her lips, her interest clearly piqued. “Please, tell me you’re actually dating someone this time.”“Mom, please, stop,” Liam replied, causally but not unkind. Rachel cleared her throat. “We are just friends, nothing more.” She said,Irene sighed, looking at Liam. ““I know you’re focused on work or whatever it is, Liam, but I’d love to see you with someone who makes you happy before I get too old to see it.” She didn't wait for Liam to say anything and continued on,

    “Not at all,” Gibson said smoothly. “No bribing here. I’m simply asking you to ensure that the evidence is given the weight it deserves. Danvers is dangerous, reckless, and a threat to society. A man like you wouldn’t let someone like him walk free, would you?”Selena leaned forward slightly, her voice soft and deliberate. “We’re only suggesting that the truth doesn’t get buried under his resources. A fair verdict, that’s all we’re after.”The judge folded his arms, his face unreadable. “And if I refuse to be bribed!?”Gibson’s expression was still calm, however deep down he was disappointed. This wasn't how he expected this conversation to go, he thought it would be like usual, he brings a bunch of money and the judge takes it. That's how he won most if his case. “We’re simply offering you the opportunity to make the right call. The choice is yours, Your Honor.” he said.The silence stretched for what felt like an eternity before the judge snapped the briefcase shut and pushed it bac

    Rachel didn’t know where exactly her suspicion came from, but the moment she noticed the reddish smudge on Liam’s lips, a thought she didn’t want to entertain crept into her mind. Was that lipstick on his side of the lips, Had Aretha kissed him? Maybe the reason she quickly suspected that, it was because she had already suspected that her sister might have a crush on Liam. There had been signs, not very visible, but present if you paid attention. For instance, ever since meeting Liam, Aretha had always been intrigued by the Danvers family, spending long hours on her phone or her devices, scrolling through articles and forums about them. And whenever Liam's name came up in conversations, her eyes would light up with an interest Rachel couldn’t ignore.But what stood out the most , and what Rachel couldn't forget, was the day Aretha agreed to testify against her own friend, Selena. Aretha had never been one to betray her circle, always loyal no matter what? Yet, for Liam, she’d mad

    Did he have feelings for Rachel? Where did that question even come from? Liam was even more surprised now, he didn't think she would be asking him this question at all. Liam paused, thinking about her question. If he was being honest with himself, he actually liked Rachel, by a lot. The feelings were complicated, though, hard to pin down. He knew he liked Rachel, however he didn't want to describe that as having feelings for her, yet. “Uhm, no…” he replied, but even as the words left his mouth, he wasn’t sure he believed them. Maybe he had feelings for Rachel, or maybe not. Ever since his breakup with Karen, Rachel was the only person he had felt attracted to. Still, his mind wasn’t giving him any clear answers yet.Aretha kept her eyes locked on Liam after he said he didn’t have feelings for Rachel. A sense of relief washed over her. She smiled weakly, mischievously.“That's a relief to hear!” She muttered in a whisper. He didn’t have feelings for her sister, which meant she had a

    Sometime later, after the lawyers arrived, Liam and the others were in the conference room. Rachel, Ethan and Mr Danvers were seated around the table looking over a copy of the documents Ethan had unknowingly signed.The low hum of the fluorescent lights filled the silence, broken only by the occasional rustling of papers.Liam stood by the coffee machine, leaning against the counter as the rich aroma filled the air. He poured himself a cup, letting the warmth of the coffee cup seep into his fingers. Taking a slow sip, his mind wandered yo everything happening in his life. Elena. The baby. Nathan. And then he had to deal with Selena allegations, although he felt like that was already a winnable case.His greatest worry now was Nathan. Nathan wasn’t going to stop until he got what he wanted. Liam knew that all too well. The problem was convincing Elena of it. She’d never believe him if he told her her own brother wanted her dead. Not unless it was already too late.His jaw tightened a

    “Hey, are you alright?” Liam asked as Rachel hugged into him, he didn't know what was wrong with her, she had never been like this before. “You’ve been helping our family ever since we met, even though you didn’t have to. I don’t know how we’d get through this without you.” Rachel murmured, her voice soft but filled with emotion.“Uh, you're welcome.” For a moment, Liam froze not knowing how to react. He didn't expect her to hug him. But he didn't mind that at all. He relaxed, the faint, sweet scent of her perfume reached him, something flowery and delicate, completely in tune with her. It was distracting, yet calming at the same time.He hesitated, then gently rested his hands on her back, his touch light but reassuring. “I’m just doing what I can,” he said quietly, his voice slightly lower. “We’ll figure this out together. I promise.”Aretha frowned, her eyes narrowing as she watched Rachel embrace Liam. And what was this? He was actually reciprocating the hug?Though it seemed lik

    “He already got what he wanted. I don’t think there’s anything you can do to get everything back,” Rachel said, her voice tinged with hopelessness.She appreciated Liam’s willingness to help, but even with his massive wealth and influence, she didn’t think he could undo something that had already been signed off. Now the Harringtons had to live with the harsh reality that they only owned a small portion of the company that they had founded and put so much into it.Even that was uncertain now. Since Blackthorn was the majority shareholder, he could easily acquire the rest of the company, just like he had with the other 80 percent.“How are we going to tell Dad that his lifelong work doesn’t belong to him anymore? He dedicated most of his life to founding this company and bringing it to where it is,” Ethan’s voice trembled with frustration as his hands clenched into fists. “This is all my fault. I let it happen. I should’ve read through those documents before signing them.”“Blaming you
