Mr. Carrington lay unconscious in the bed, his face pale and his chest still. Mr. Blackthorn stood by the bedside, a calculating look in his eyes, as if he were entirely unfazed by the sudden turn of events. The faintest hint of a smirk playing on his lips. The fact that he was standing there, unmoved by the situation, made the entire scene feel sinister, like he had orchestrated this very moment.Ethan ignored Mr Blackthorn, his focus entirely on his unconscious father. “Dad!” He shouted, rushing to his father's side, panic flooding his senses. “What happened?” He turned his sharp gaze toward Mr. Blackthorn, suspicion clouding his mind. The man’s calm demeanor only fueled Ethan’s fears that he might have done something to Mr Carrington. “What did you do?” He asked coldlyMr. Blackthorn raised an eyebrow, his expression unfazed. “I believe your father simply became overwhelmed,” he replied, his voice smooth and dispassionate. The way he spoke he had no emotion in his tone, which made
“Honestly, it’s for the best. She’ll just drag you and the baby down.” Megan added, trying her best to make sure Liam doesn't change his mind and stand by his decision to pay Elena off.Alvin grunted in agreement, setting down his glass of wine. “Yeah, I guess that works. You’re better off keeping her away from the child, Liam.”Liam was delighted to hear both his dad and his sister supporting his decision. He didn't want to tell them of his plan at first, because he thought they would disagree with him, but he was wrong. Liam showed a weak smile, however before he could respond, Irene raised her hand, her eyes narrowing slightly. “Wait. Don’t encourage him,” she said to Megan and Alvin who were supporting Liam's decision, despite the fact that his decision was going to keep a child from his mother, basically robbing him of his mother's love. Irene's tone was firm and disapproving. She looked directly at Megan and then at Alvin, before turning her gaze back to Liam. “This isn’t just
Megan crossed her arms, the frustration evident on her face. She didn’t agree with ignoring Elena’s actions against their family, she believed that Elena and anyone who dared to mess with the Danvers family should be dealt with. However she also wanted what was best for the kid and Liam. She didn’t want the child to grow up and resent Liam for separating him from his mom. Looking at Liam, Megan said, “You might think you’re protecting him, but you could be setting him up for a lifetime of questions and pain. What happens when he wants to know who his mother is? Keeping him away from her could hurt him more than you realize. You’re just pushing this under the rug.”Alvin's voice broke through the heated exchange. “Listen, Liam, we all want what’s best for the baby. But you need to consider every angle. Making a decision out of anger or fear might not lead to the outcome you’re hoping for.” he also felt the same way as Megan and Irene, knowing that this wasn't just about them or Elena,
Liam was getting irritated watching the news, and he couldn't take it any longer. Selena’s face filled the screen, each word dripping with deception, twisting the truth into something unrecognizable. The lies grated at him, every accusation adding fule to the anger simmering beneath his skin. In a swift motion, he switched the TV off, the sudden silence feeling like a relief yet heavy with frustration. He breathed out a sigh, his hand tightening around the remote, his knuckles turning white as he was about to throw it across the room. But somehow, he stopped himself, forcing restraint through clenched teeth.His body stiffened as he sank back onto the edge of his bed, staring blankly at the now-black screen, the remote hanging loosely in his hands.His chest felt tight, burdened with the weight of everything. First of all, there were Selena's false accusations, the lies she was shamelessly spreading like wildfire, surely the damage to his reputation had been done now and people belie
That rapist? The man's words echoed in Liam's head. The word hit him like a punch to the gut. Liam frowned as he watched the man approaching him, getting too close to him. The café, which had been a brief sanctuary, suddenly felt threatening. Suddenly after the man called Liam a rapist, the people in the cafe all began to turn their eyes towards Liam, whispers rippling through the small crowd. Liam's fists clenched, there was nothing worse than being called those words he was being called right now. And it just made him resent the person who had flamed him of it even more, Selena, she needed to be taught a lesson.Liam’s heart pounded, his fists clenched tight. He could feel the weight of everyone’s gaze, judging him, believing the lies they’d heard on TV. He forced himself to stand unbothered, not letting the accusation affect him at all. They weren't true to begin with so why let them affect him?“You’ve got it wrong,” he said, his voice steady but strained. “That’s a lie.”“Oh,

The day flew by as Liam buried himself in his work, determined to keep his mind off the whirlwind of chaos surrounding his life. What bothered him the most was Selena. He knew he’d eventually have to confront Selena’s lies, but for now, focusing on his responsibilities was the best way to maintain his composure. He’d deal with the accusations in due time, but today, his attention belonged to work.As noon approached, Liam decided it was time to take a break from his work and shift his focus. The constant pressure of his responsibilities as the CEO of multiversal studios wasn’t enough to drown out the chaos swirling around him, especially the persistent thoughts of Selena’s lies. No matter how hard he tried to immerse himself in tasks, those accusations stuck to him, like a shadow he couldn't shake. Everywhere he turned, the scandal followed, broadcasted across news outlets, and plastered all over the internet. His phone buzzed constantly with notifications, and when he checked most o
Mrs. Wolfe, her gaze still fixed on the screen, shook her head. "I always knew there was something off about him. This just proves it." Her tone was icy, dripping with the satisfaction of being proven right. She didn't care if this was the truth about Liam or not, to her this was an opportunity to make Karen finally forget about him and get married to Jeremy without any objection.Karen was still processing everything, but she didn’t respond to her mom. Instead, she stared at the news, flashes of memories rushing back into her mind, and memories of their relationship. She knew that Liam wasn't the good person he had always pretended to be, he was actually a jerk, but this? This was something else entirely. She couldn’t imagine Liam doing such a thing, yet there it was, plastered across every screen.The reporter's voice echoed through the room, detailing the shocking accusations against Liam and the media frenzy that followed. Karen's gaze remained fixed on the TV, absorbing every wor
