Yes, it was Liam's number!Suzy would never forget those digits.Why was he calling her? More importantly, how did he get her number?"Suzy, why aren't you answering?" Wendy in the front passenger seat turned around and saw her pale face. "What's wrong? Who's calling?""It's Liam..."Jeffrey slammed on the brakes."What?! Whose?""Liam." As she spoke, the phone stopped ringing, and the screen showed a missed call.Jeffrey looked at Suzy through the rearview mirror, the tension in the car rising."Could he have found out something?"Wendy quickly reached out her hand. "Give me the phone. I'll answer it and see what he wants. I'll pretend I don't know it's him. I don't know his number, and your phone is registered under my ID, so it's perfectly normal for me to answer."But Suzy just stared at the screen, not responding.Even Angela and Arthur sensed something was wrong and tugged at her clothes.Angela blinked, "Mommy... what's wrong?"Arthur, being smarter, quickly took out his phone.

Then he abruptly ended the call, as if he feared hearing any more harsh words from Suzy.But for the one who spoke those harsh words, it wasn't any easier.Suzy clenched her phone and closed her eyes, only to realize that tears had already started to fall unconsciously from the corners of her eyes.She didn't even know when they had started.The wind at the street corner continued to blow strongly, and the tears either fell onto the back of her hand or on the edge of her clothes. Suzy didn't even dare to cry loudly.Hurting Liam was the last thing she wanted to do.But she had no other choice.To protect her child from harm and to uncover the truth, she had to stay hidden and make sacrifices....When Clive received the call from Liam, he was still looking for someone to track down that boy.He really liked that kid!"Hello?""Come have a drink."Clive was taken aback. "Did I hear that right? What did you say, a drink?!""Are you coming or not?""I'm coming!"He didn't even need to thi

Sophia feigned concern, sighing as she tried to persuade Grace. "Mrs. Park, no matter what, he's still Liam's child. You can't hurt Liam's feelings just to support me. I don't want to cause any discord between you and him because of me.""You care so much about him, but look at his behavior! First, there was Suzy, then he's married someone else without even telling me who she is! And now, a child appears claiming to be his! It's so frustrating!" Grace grew increasingly agitated, causing the doctor nearby to step in and calm her down."Mrs. Park, you should take care of your health! I don't mind as long as I can be with Liam in the end. Even if I were to never have a formal status, I'm willing to do so.""No, you deserve the title of Mrs. Park! I owe it to you. As for that child, don't worry. If Liam blames you, you can put all the responsibility on me. Say it was my doing!"This was precisely what Sophia wanted to hear. She was genuinely worried something might happen to Grace. As long

Suzy instinctively looked in the direction Jeffrey mentioned.Sure enough, Jeffrey stood not far away, holding his phone and smiling at her."Over here!"Seeing Jeffrey's figure, Suzy felt a mix of emotions she couldn't quite describe.To say she wasn't touched would be a lie, but this kind of feeling was more like that between family members, unrelated to romantic love.Many times, Suzy wondered if she had met Jeffrey first, through Wendy's introduction, she might have wholeheartedly built a life with him.But all of this was based on the premise that Liam never appeared.Suzy stood up and slowly walked toward him. "Jeff, why didn't you leave?""I couldn't rest easy with you alone in Northorn. So, I had a friend drive Wendy and the kids back first. Don't worry, my friend is an old classmate I've known for years. There won't be any problems, and he won't betray us."Suzy wasn't really worried about that, but still..."You've been waiting here all this time?""I stayed to keep you compa

Alec just stared at her, seemingly trying to gauge the truth in her words.But…The fact that she came here today showed that she still had feelings for Liam.And from their previous interactions, Alec believed she wasn’t a heartless person."Are you saying that Mr. Park's mother has...""Alec, without evidence, I can’t say anything more, and you don’t need to ask! Once I leave Northorn City tomorrow morning, I’ll be leaving the country and won’t return. You don’t have to worry about me bothering him again. Whether you believe it or not, I genuinely hope he finds happiness."Given how seriously Liam treated love, he deserved a complete and fulfilling relationship. He deserved happiness.With that, Suzy turned to leave.Alec watched her retreating figure, then suddenly called out."Miss Chase!"Suzy paused and turned around. "What is it?"Alec quickly walked over to her. "Mr. Park got drunk today. I’ve been taking care of him.""He was drinking?""Yes, I’ve never seen him this drunk bef
