After sending her message, William quickly replied that he wasn’t home and suggested they meet directly at the restaurant entrance later.Liz responded with an “OK” sticker and told him she was heading out now, estimating she would arrive around six.When she reached the restaurant entrance, she happened to run into William. The two of them walked inside together.Meanwhile, on the roadside, Zac sat with his eyes closed, trying to rest. In the passenger seat, Chase glanced toward the distance and suddenly let out a surprised “Huh?”Zac opened his eyes. “What is it?”“N… nothing. I thought I saw Ms. Smith just now, but I must have been mistaken.”Lately, Zac himself wasn’t sure what was going on. His workload had been heavier than usual, and he hadn’t asked about Liz in a long time.Chase couldn’t read Zac’s feelings and didn’t dare bring Liz up again.What no one expected was that Zac had already dismissed Xena.Xena had caused a scene at the company twice afterward, but wheth

Liz paused for a moment, then smiled. “I’ll be pretty busy over the next week. Let’s plan that dinner after I move into Crestwood Heights.”“Alright. Drive safe on your way back.”After saying goodbye to William, Liz drove off.When she returned to the Smith family’s estate and stepped into the living room, she was surprised to see Mrs. Smith Sr. sitting on the couch.“Grandma, why are you still up so late?”At the sight of her, Mrs. Smith Sr. patted the seat beside her. “Liz, come sit. I need to talk to you.”“What is it?”Liz sat down with a puzzled look.“For Sunday’s party, do you have a style you prefer? I can have Mrs. Wood arrange everything according to your taste.”Liz shook her head. “Grandma, whatever you decide is fine. I don’t have any particular preferences.”A flicker of disappointment crossed Mrs. Smith Sr.’s eyes. “Liz, earlier today your mom asked Mandy the very same question. Do you know how Mandy answered?”Liz frowned. “Grandma, I really don’t care how s

“Mrs. Smith, as long as you don’t come looking for trouble, I have no complaints or issues with you.”Kimberly let out a cold laugh, her face full of disdain and impatience.“Oh, please. You could complain about me for days and never run out of things to say. And Mandy wasn’t wrong—leaving this family was your choice. So stop acting like the world owes you something.”Liz met her gaze head-on, almost amused. Kimberly hadn’t changed a bit. Just like years ago, she was still quick to hurl baseless accusations.“Mrs. Smith, I’ve never once regretted leaving this family, and I’ve never felt like anyone owed me anything. Don’t twist my thoughts into something they’re not.”Back then, part of her reason for cutting ties had been Zac Lincoln. But more than that, it was because she had completely lost faith in the Smiths.“Fine! I’ll wait and see how long you can keep that tough mouth of yours!”Liz had no intention of continuing the fight. She turned to Mrs. Smith Sr. instead. “Grandma

When Liz saw the agent’s message, her eyes widened slightly in disbelief.“All of them rented out in just one night?” she thought, stunned.If one or two had been taken, she could believe it. But every single one? That was clearly suspicious.After a long pause, the agent finally replied.“Yes, they’re all rented out. And at the moment, I don’t have any other office listings. You might want to check with another agency, Ms. Smith.”Liz noticed his attitude was much cooler than yesterday. Frowning, she felt something was off, though she couldn’t quite put her finger on it.Still, there were plenty of agents in the city. If this one could not help, she could always find another.She transferred him two hundred dollars and sent a message.“Thank you for all your help these past few days. This is just a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it.”This time, his reply came quickly.“Ms. Smith, that isn’t necessary. But did you offend someone recently?”Liz had barely read

Xena flinched instinctively, her eyes widening with fear as she looked at Zac.“Mr. Lincoln, I understand.”Her hand brushed over her stomach. She could not reveal her pregnancy yet. Knowing Zac’s temperament, if he found out now, he would force her to get rid of it. She had to wait until it was too late for that or until the child was born before letting him know.With that thought, Xena decided to keep her head down for the time being.Seeing the color drain from her face, Zac’s expression softened against his will. After a long moment, he said, “Go.”Xena nodded, eyes red, and turned to leave.Just as she reached the door, Zac’s voice came from behind.“If you want a new job, I can have someone arrange it. But I hope you remember that what we had is over.”Xena froze for a second. “That won’t be necessary, Mr. Lincoln. I can find a job on my own. I don’t need your charity.”She opened the door and walked out, leaving the office in silence.For some reason, Zac felt an unsh
