Chapter 541 My Son Is the Best

Liam's own words were like a slap in his face.Soon, Ember walked in unhappily."Why did you agree just now? That was supposed to be yours! But that bastard ..." she said."Mom, if Dad hears you calling Eric that, he'll be unhappy." Liam interrupted her calmly.Amelia didn't know what they were talking about. But she guessed it was related to the conversation downstairs just now. So she didn't interrupt and simply listened to them.Amelia also couldn't accept it when Ember called Eric a bastard. But what surprised her was that Liam had stopped Ember!Ember was also stunned. "Why are you speaking up for him? He's your father's illegitimate son! He came back just to fight over the property with you!""An illegitimate son is also a son. After all, he's also part of Dad's bloodline. Unless we have nothing to do with Dad, it'll be difficult not to accept him."There was nothing Liam couldn't accept. He knew the results early on.As for what James gave Eric, Liam was indeed

Chapter 542 She Will Always Be With Him

Although Amelia said that, she still planned to check Ember's medication to see what Ember was hiding.During family dinner, Amelia didn't see Eric. The others weren't surprised either. He probably left after settling the matter.Amelia was curious. but she didn't ask about it. She simply ate her meal quietly.On the way back, Liam asked her while driving, "Aren't you curious about what benefits Eric got?"Of course Amelia was curious.When she heard Liam ask that question, she simply stared at him, wanting to get an answer. Looking at his slightly furrowed brow, she knew he was jealous again.Amelia felt that it was a little funny, but she didn't insist on asking. Instead, she said something to please Liam. "I'm not curious about what benefits he got. I'm just worried about whether you suffered a loss."Sure enough, Liam was happy to hear that."What loss could I suffer? No one in this world can make me suffer!"Seeing his arrogant look, Amelia chuckled.Then, L

Chapter 543 The Perfect Opportunity

That night, as things were heating up between them, Liam's phone suddenly rang.Ever since their relationship had reached a new level, Liam appeared to have shed his usual restraint. It left Amelia feeling quite disheartened.Every night, the mischievous look on Liam's face left her feeling uneasy. She always questioned herself on whether or not she could face the next day.Whenever she came up with a reason, he was quick to come up with a comeback.Back in the day when Amelia wasn't working, he'd say, "You're not even working. You're just resting at home."And now that Amelia had a job, he'd suggest, "I'll help you take a day off. Your work can be managed from home."And tonight, Liam said, "Tomorrow's the weekend. You don't have to work!"With that kind of reasoning, it was nigh impossible for Amelia to say no.Luckily, the phone decided to act up at that exact moment. She quickly pointed it out, saying, "Your phone's ringing."Liam couldn't shake off a slight annoyance.

Chapter 544 I Have Come To See Liam

As they were preparing themselves for an afternoon nap, there was a sudden knock on the door.Amelia opened the door to find a surprising visitor."What brings you here?" she asked."Who is it?" Liam asked as he joined Amelia at the door. His face turned frigid as he eyed the unexpected guest."Have you come to the wrong place, Ms. Lancaster?" Liam said.His blunt words left a bitter taste in Hannah's mouth, and she met Liam's gaze with a complicated expression."Ms. Lancaster, you should leave." Liam asserted firmly.Amelia glanced at Liam. Though she felt reassured by his attitude, she couldn't bear to see Hannah in such a state.She tugged at Liam's sleeve and said, "Ms. Lancaster probably has something important to say by coming here."Liam wasn't petty, especially toward someone he had once cared for like Hannah. So he maintained an indifferent attitude to shield Amelia from unnecessary worries.Amelia's words had a subtle effect on Liam. It caused him to slightly lo

Chapter 545 Sent Back by an Unfamiliar Guy

"She's in trouble!"Hannah's words weighed heavily in the air, plunging everyone into a shocked silence.Liam turned his gaze toward her. His eyes were piercing as he asked, "What do you mean?""Last night, she didn't come home. When my parents called her, she said she was meeting a friend. But as the night went on, there was still no sign of her. When they tried calling again, no one answered." Hannah explained.Amelia felt a knot of worry in her stomach. She tried to figure out what might have happened to Leona, and the thought crossed her mind that the friend Leona mentioned could be Liam.But Liam hadn't gone anywhere the night before!Amelia felt like Leona's call yesterday was about meeting up with Liam. She wondered why they couldn't just talk on the phone instead of having to meet so late.Even though Amelia trusted Liam, there was still a bit of doubt whenever Leona was in the picture.Liam's expression grew serious. "So what exactly happened?"He already understood

Chapter 546 Venting His Anger

Hannah's words left both of them shocked.Liam was agitated. He seized Hannah and exclaimed, "Explain to me. What's happening? Who is that man?"Amelia felt a knot in her stomach watching Liam in such a state, and it was undoubtedly worse for Hannah."I told you I don't know the guy, but Leona might. When he brought her back, she could barely walk. My mom had to help her clean up. And I took a peek—she was covered in marks." Hannah explained.Uncertain of what to do, Amelia bit her lip. Her eyes shifted to Liam, and she noticed the veins bulging on his hands. The intensity of his gaze on Hannah seemed like he wanted to strangle her."Why couldn't she walk, and what marks are you talking about? Hannah, don't play games. Leo has always been good to you since your childhood. Don't make me feel like you don't deserve to be Leo's sister!" Liam roared.A tear fell onto Liam's hand, but he showed no sign of releasing his grip.Hannah felt hurt. She didn't do anything wrong, and Leona

Chapter 547 Fell in Love With the Same Man

Liam's feet shuffled a bit. "Do you still want to know about Leona?" Hannah asked.Liam hesitated for a moment, but eventually, he sat down on the sofa.He said, "You better not have any funny ideas. Otherwise, I don't mind helping out the Lambert family and speeding up the marriage between their daughter and Eric."Hannah's expression changed. She was angry and embarrassed. But in the end, she revealed what she knew."Liam, you're an adult man. You must know what could happen to a woman when she's alone outside at night. "She met a few men. I don't know what kind of men they were, but I know what those marks on a woman's body represent. You should know too, right?""You—" Liam could guess it, but he found it hard to believe."Don't forget, she's your sister. Something's happened to her, why aren't you worried at all?""Sister?" Hannah laughed so much that there were tears in her eyes. "You're just like them. All you can see is Leona. Everyone says I'm her younger sister and

Chapter 548 Forcing Never Leads to Happiness

Though Liam said he would be back soon, it was already Monday morning when Amelia saw him again.Liam entered with a tired and dejected expression while Amelia was having breakfast. But upon seeing Amelia, he put on a smile. "Lia."Amelia glanced at him for a second, then, she lowered her head to continue eating.Liam's eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment, but he smiled again. "I'll go shower and change. I'll drive you to work later."Amelia didn't reply. Liam glanced at her before heading back to the room.Amelia tightened her grip on the spoon and resumed eating, as though nothing had happened. However, her movements were faster than before.When Liam came out dressed after a while, he didn't see Amelia anywhere.At that moment, May was tidying up the table. Seeing his actions, she understood he was looking for Amelia.She sighed softly and said, "Madam has already left.""Left?" Liam's heart skipped a beat, repeating her word."Yeah, she went to work. She said s

Chapter 549 Your Company and Comfort

"Hey, what a rare guest we have here!"When Lucas received the news, he pushed open the door to the president's office. He was delighted to see the person inside.Before he even reached the company, he had heard from the receptionist that a visitor had arrived and was already in his office. So he hurriedly rushed over.Liam frowned and glanced at Lucas. "It's already 9:30 am. The role of company president seems like an easy job for you."Lucas immediately put on a mournful face. "Easy? How can it be easy? I've been working my ass off. Why didn't you come help me, Liam? I'm struggling alone here, arguing with those old guys every day, and you didn't even think of helping me."Liam snorted coldly. "You're the president of Prime Studios, not me.""But you're—""Cut the nonsense. Just do your job well. Since the establishment of the company, you've been doing fine, haven't you? Stop complaining. If you have the ability, show it, and let people see that you're not inferior to anyon

Chapter 550 I Couldn't Match Up to Leo

"I've known Leo since our childhood. We went to the same school. Our friendship is similar to that of Lucas and I."Amelia looked at Liam suspiciously.Friendship?Her gaze made Liam feel a bit awkward. He remained silent for a moment, then, he smiled wryly. "Lia, if I tell you the truth, I'm afraid you'll get angry. But if I don't, you won't believe me. What should I say?"Amelia chuckled. "You can say whatever you want." After all, she wasn't a fool. She had seen all his actions."I admit, I had feelings for Leo, but that was before I knew you. If I had known I would meet you later on, I wouldn't—"Amelia reached out and covered his mouth."Don't talk about these hypothetical things. They will never happen. They won't make your words more credible either."They wouldn't change her mind.After all, she already knew about his feelings for Leona. She knew that he had liked Leona since childhood.Liam looked at Amelia helplessly, realizing that women were indeed hard to pleas
