★★★★★"I am poor, that is why I have put my life at risk to do this dangerous work for you. Still, I don't get a chance to take a breath of relief," Katherine muttered under her breath. Then she got up with her eyes clouded by anger as she moved over to the wardrobe.She looked for the locker.'If there is any money in the locker, I will give it to Dad. And if I get more, then I am going to send them somewhere far away?' Katherine gritted her teeth and thought, then she started looking for the locker. "Once they are out of sight, nothing can stop me from showing off what I am truly capable of doing."Her hands moved the neatly folded clothes to the side, and she no longer paid attention to what she was going to answer if the reason for this condition was asked by Zac. The only thing that ran in her head was to get something valuable or money.She slammed her palm against the wooden door and shut it because there was a locker in it.In the morning she fell in love with expensive clothe
★★★"The dresses she is going to wear and the one she had on at the dinner table do not belong to your mother. Those are all new," Zac replied. On hearing that, Liam smiled as if he was giving his father a big thumbs up for the witty work'Though his father did not expose the woman or let him aware of the thing, he took care of his mother's belongings already, which gave him immense satisfaction"So what now? Am I supposed to pretend in front of her?" Liam asked, his voice low but edged with worry. "What if she has already planned everything down to the last detail? What if we cannot prove her wrong, no matter what we"It's really a matter of whether we prove her wrong or not?" Zac raised his brows, "I am only keeping her here to find Katherine. I know she will call. If not the call, then she is going to find an excuse to leave the house, and I will allow her," Zac said with a comforting expressionIt was not his plan to discuss so much with his son, but knowing his restless nature, h
★★★★★"Because I want to see you leading a normal life," Zac replied, keeping his eyes on Liam, "I know you don't want to be like me, which I feel proud of because I also don't want you to ever feel in life that it would have been better if you were me.""You... are what you never wanted to be, right?" Liam's voice dropped to a tentative murmur. He had not talked very closely with his father, so he was not sure if his father would get angry if he talked about something too personal."No, my mother also did not want this, but time and the situation pushed me in such a way that I reached this place. And I don't think I can ever go back to a normal life," Zac said with a sigh. Withdrawing his hands as he leaned on his chair."Hmm..." Liam gave an understanding nod to his father. "You haven't taken me to see grandma and grandfather!" He stared at Zac, then, thinking of something, he added hastily, "Are they?""No... they are not dead," Zac cut in, his voice firm but calm. "My father expre
★★★★"It is a wonderful thing, but who gave it to you? Did I buy it for you?" Katherine asked with a soft tone, her fingers brushing the thing in her hand.Then she glanced at Liam, adding, "I would really like to know about this thing because I know it must have been a very beautiful moment. That is why you still keep it safe.""Hmm!" Liam nodded, "I will tell about it." His eyes betrayed his emotion, which did not go unnoticed by Zac."It is not right to prolong the dinner so much, so let us finish eating. Then you two can talk all night," Zac said, grabbing his fork and knife, which he had earlier set next to his plate. His action was light, as if whatever Liam was doing did not bother him at all even though he sensed the anxiousness in his son."Since I can enjoy the seafood now, I would like to taste this shrimp once more. Besides, my son had the chef prepare it for me, how could I just let all of this go to waste? " Katherine smiled at Liam as she said, and another shrimp from h
★★★★"Why hasn't Liz come?" Katherine asked as she settled on the seat. "I came to know that she has gone to dinner with one of her boyfriends. Let her enjoy her meal and we will enjoy ours," Zac said, who sat next to Katherine while Liam sat across them.Even though Liam was talking and smiling, there was something not right with him. "Okay!" Katherine replied and arched forward, grabbing a bowl containing warm soup. She looked at Liam, adding, "Would you like to have some soup before the meal. You will like it.""Mom, I don't like soup with meat in it. This is for you to get your health back quickly," Liam said with a composed tone. Then he looked at Zac, adding, "I want to go to school. But not in any expensive school."Zac nodded, grabbing the fork and knife. He sliced a piece of meat, adding, "I have already decided which school you will go to and maybe you will start going to school by next week.""That's fine for me," Liam said and forked a piece of broccoli, then put it in h
★★★★★"I hope this help you are giving me is not causing you problems," Liz remarked in an airy tone.The Silence in the car was gnawing at her nerves. She could feel the man decide her brimming with questions, yet he refused to voice a single one."If I truly get into a problem because I spare my precious time to give you the help, what are you going to do?" Carlo said, grasping the wheel tightly, "Are you willing to sacrifice yourself if I want in exchange for this help?""Okay, I agree you have already done more for me than I could ask for, but that does not mean you have to treat me like the enemy," Liz complained, her lips pouting. She shifted her head from Carlo to the window because she believed the more she tried to talk to him, the more he became ferocious with his words, and that hurt her a lot without his knowing.Then again, a sense of resentment had resided for a long time before Carlo added, "Even if I had become your enemy, it would still have been accepted, but why did
