《CHASING THE CARPENTER'S HEART》全部章節：第 71 章 - 第 80 章

BAB 72 A BRINGER OF FORTUNELiam and Chatrine received an unexpected miracle just moments before their return to London.Liam had been invited to present once again, directly at the private residence of Prince Hamdan himself.It was an extraordinary surprise.An even greater honor.And more shocking still, Prince Hamdan had personally heard about Liam’s actions when he saved the little boy drowning in the hotel lobby fountain.The prince was well known for his deep affection toward children.Liam’s actions had genuinely moved him.“You chose to abandon a great opportunity in order to save a child’s life.”Liam lowered his head deeply, his voice trembling.“I don’t know what to say, Your Highness. Only... thank you. I simply did what any human being should do.”Prince Hamdan smiled warmly.Then Chatrine spoke.“What happened yesterday was completely beyond our expectations. But this time, we are fully prepared to present properly.” She glanced toward Liam with confidence. “Mr. Conelli

BAB 74 THE LITTLE BOYSince becoming a mother, Evanka felt her life had changed completely. Not only had she become a woman with a purpose, she had also become far more patient than she had ever imagined.She refused to give up persuading her son to eat.The little boy sat with a sulking face, a dinosaur blanket covering his legs. His bright eyes shimmered with stubborn determination, as though defending his tiny pride with all his strength.Evanka tried once more to lift a spoonful of porridge to Evan’s lips, but the child quickly shook his head.“No!”“If Evan doesn’t eat, he won’t grow big,” Evanka coaxed softly. “Doesn’t Evan still want to become a football player?”Evan lowered his gaze, his fingers pinching the edge of the blanket. Then he spoke quietly, but clearly enough to pierce straight through her heart.“Mommy… why didn’t God give Evan a papa?”Evanka froze.The spoon stopped midair.Her chest tightened painfully as she swallowed a heavy breath and forced herself to smile

The moment they returned to Canterbury, Liam immediately gathered everyone at the gallery for a meeting.Early autumn had begun to settle over the city, and the morning air carried a refreshing chill. After the scorching heat of the desert, the contrast felt almost unreal, as though the change in atmosphere had been magnified several times over.Leaves had started turning gold, while the pale morning sunlight streamed through the enormous glass windows of Conelli Gallery, scattering soft reflections across the polished marble floor.Inside the meeting room, every worker had already taken their place around the long table. The atmosphere was silent with anticipation when Liam entered alongside Chatrine. He wore a gray shirt with the sleeves rolled to his forearms, and the energy radiating from him was impossible not to feel.Liam stopped at the end of the long rectangular table, looking at each face that had placed its hopes in him. A faint dimple appeared when he drew a slow breath be

CHAPTER 78A MEETING IN LONDONA thin veil of clouds hung over London when Liam’s old pickup finally stopped in front of the Loghan family townhouse. The grand Georgian residence stood proudly in the elite district of Mayfair, its black iron balconies and polished burgundy entrance door radiating old-money elegance.From the second-floor balcony, Aron Loghan stood watching in a charcoal suit paired with a crisp white shirt. Impeccably refined, as always. Yet his expression remained cold.His eyes followed Liam as he stepped out from the driver’s side, circled the pickup, and opened the door for Chatrine.One of Aron’s brows lifted slightly.“I never imagined a woman as intelligent as Chatrine would willingly sit inside a carpenter’s pickup truck,” he remarked to his wife.Beside him, Evana glanced at her husband and smiled with quiet amusement.“I should not answer honestly, Aron. You might get jealous.”Aron gave a faint grunt, mildly irritated by the remark, though he said nothing f

CHAPTER 80PROPOSED TO IN FRONT OF A MOTHERChatrine froze in her chair.Liam’s words struck like thunder across their small dinner table. Shock flooded through her. Her eyes widened, her heart pounding wildly beyond control.She had just been proposed to... in front of a mother, inside a warm home overflowing with affection.It felt too beautiful to destroy.Her fingers instinctively tightened around the napkin resting in her lap. Her breathing turned uneven. She wanted to speak, but her voice remained trapped somewhere in her throat.“Shhh!”Isabel’s voice suddenly broke the silence.Liam turned toward his mother, one brow lifting in confusion.Without hesitation, Isabel hurriedly removed the wedding ring from her own finger and shoved it toward her son.“You need a ring to propose to a girl,” she whispered sharply, though the urgency in her tone made it impossible to ignore.“This is your wedding ring, Mother?”Liam stared at her in disbelief, but Isabel simply glared back and push
