“One million for The Mask of Honor?”“Is the bidding for The Mask of Honor? Or for the man himself?”“It's obvious, can't you see how hot that man looks?”“This war is definitely not about a mask!”Maggi's action stirred a murmur in the crowd.But Byron on the other hand frowned upon hearing the auctioneer's words.He never signed up to go for an evening date with anyone! This wasn't their agreement.Meanwhile, Samantha and the rest of the Armstrong family weren't pleased with what they were seeing.“Samantha, what is your daughter doing?” Grandma Jane asked.Maggi knows better than to bid against the daughter of Lord Dee, their business partner!“Aunt Samantha! One million? Is that not Byron I see? She's willing to throw one million dollars just to get dinner with that pauper? What a disgrace.”Liam's words stirred laughter within the Armstrongs. Only they knew the face behind The Mask of Honor was Byron.The atmosphere became intense as other ladies gave their best to bid higher tha

At the wedding, the host spoke into the mic and said, “Let's hear a few words from the newlyweds.” Liam and Bianca walked on stage arm in arm to give their speech. Liam smiled and stared at the crowd, “To All the gentlemen and ladies here, I wanna say a big thank you for attending this beautiful day of mine. I'm honored. I and my wife here appreciate your presence. From the depth of my heart, I say a very big thank you.” After a round of applause, Liam handed the mic to Bianca. Bianca showed her gratitude not just with her words but also by showing the ring on her finger. “First of all, I'd love to say thank you to everyone for attending our wedding. I love this man so much, this ring on my finger is not just the sign of a new beginning, it's a sign that nothing would ever come between us.” The crowd clapped and cheered on as she continued, “I know of a man here, his name is Byron Smith most of you might know him. He doesn't know what the word love is and most especially, he

“Then why did you drag the file?”“You should have allowed her to read the full file!”“If you were so sure of yourself you shouldn't have dragged it!”The guests were flabbergasted to the core that they threw different words at Liam who felt tongue-tied. This was extremely entertaining for both Byron, Carol and Joanna.Joanna couldn't help but laugh. “Kindly advice? Don't take my advice. Continue with your marriage.”Liam had completely lost it. Even The rest of the family had no idea he was plotting this.“Answer the crowd, Liam! Is it true?!” Bianca demanded.Liam hissed. What is the use in trying to pretend when Platinum Enterprises had kicked him out of his own company? Bianca was the least of his concerns right now.“If you're not normal, try and pretend and let me be!” She can see that he's in deep shit. Now's not the time.Bianca's head buzzed. Liam's response was enough to tell what Joanna just said was true. Liam actually never loved her?A sense of hopelessness washed over

Maggi's eyes fell on the picture of the man that was used in decorating the coffin. She could have sworn that picture looks familiar. “The traitor is finally in my nest.” She swallowed hard then raised her head and saw a man slowly walking up to her. It was Lord Dee, Vanessa's father. She started to feel uneasy. Why does it feel like she's gotten herself into deep shit? What was this about? His daughter? Is it about the slap at the auction? Well they had a bet and Vanessa raised her hand on her first. She only returned what Vanessa gave to her, though she was sorry. As he got closer, his sharp eyes and cold aura felt so overbearing, she couldn't breathe. “Sir, this is Margaret Armstrong,” The one in charge said. Lord Dee waved his hands dismissively and took his seat, his eyes still fixed on Maggi. “My daughter is a board member in your family's company, I'm sure you know who I am. But if you don't, I am Mr. Hunter Dashiel, a general from the western zone.” Maggi was

Maggi was lost for words. She thought she just made it clear that there was no USB with her?Why did her mother have to rat her out to these people? Wait…she's right, her mother had indeed seen her trying to hide it.“That's right, that USB, once you can provide it or it's whereabouts, then we would let her go, if not, by this time tomorrow all you'd see is her lifeless body on your doorstep.” Sniper said with a note of finality before turning to leave.After having a few conversations within themselves, Samantha and The Armstrongs went back home that night except Grandma Jane and Liam's mum.No one had an idea where they slept but it was obvious where they were out, trying to get Liam out of prison.It was 10 pm that night and Samantha couldn't sleep. She kept thinking of the possible things they could do to Maggi. The last threat those men gave to them kept replaying in her head. What stupid USB could that be for Maggi to be willing to die rather than giving it to them?She gently
