Chapter 36 Unlike Her Usual Self

Although the dim lights inside Ante Bar made it difficult for Liam to see clearly, he could make out his wife sitting in the corner. However, he struggled to determine the gender of the person she held in her arms. The sight before him, coupled with the unsettling phone call, tangled his thoughts.

With clenched fists, Liam lunged forward, catching Henry off guard. His fists were poised for action, but as soon as he realized that the person in Gwyneth's embrace was a woman, his hands froze mid-air. However, due to the momentum fueled by his earlier rage, he couldn't control his forward motion, and the sudden halt caused his arm to almost cramp up.

"Gwyneth!" Liam squinted his eyes slightly as he looked at the woman before him.

Her evident intoxication didn't require an explicit mention; it was apparent to anyone observant enough.
