"Pizza delivery!" Liam called out, knocked on the door of the hotel, wipping the sweat dripping from his forehead. After finishing this delivery, he would rush home to prepare dinner for his wife, Nina. She told him she had to work overtime again.At this thought of her, despite being exhausted, Liam still showed a contented smile.The door swung open with a quiet creak, "That was fast..." The voice cut off abruptly. When their eyes met, Liam's breath hitched.Because it was Nina.His 5-year-long wife, who was supposed be in the office, now was wearing a sexy dress in this hotel room. "What are you doing here, Nina?" Liam asked, his voice hoarse. His pulse pounded in his ears.It was quite obvious. What other answer could there be when a woman in lingerie was in a hotel room?!...But for one stupid, desperate second, Liam clung to the possibility that there was an explanation.At the very first moment, Nina looked utterly stunned. She instinctively raised her hand to cover her che

Liam rubbed his temples and waved a dismissive hand."Alright, alright. I'm glad you didn't really do that... Make big moves in silence. That’s how we do things.”“And Amnon, thanks for holding down the fort these past five years. I know it wasn’t easy."Since Liam was gone, Amnon had been taking care of his business.Beneath his greasy delivery uniform, Liam was actually the heir to one of the world’s most powerful hidden families.He had inherited control at just thirteen. And in five years, he turned the family into a global force that operated in the shadows. Its wealth so vast it didn’t even appear on Forbes’ lists. Because Forbes couldn’t measure infinity.Amnon smiled warmly. "Young Master, you’ve lost weight, got tanner… but your eyes are sharper than ever!"Liam chuckled, clapping Amnon on the shoulder."Stop trying to make me feel better. Five years in the trenches will do that to any man.”“Now that I’m back, it’s time to visit the company.”“Oh, and handle the photos and

For years, Nina never let Liam touch her, let alone sleep with him. She always had an excuse. “Not in the mood”. “Tired”. “Didn’t want a baby”…Turned out, she just couldn’t stand him.But another man? She’d spread her legs in a heartbeat.Liam’s gaze darkened. Nina caught it. She quickly looked away, snuggling deeper into Jake’s arms.Jake smirked. His voice rang out, dripping with mockery.“Well, well. Look who it is. The loser husband again!”“Can’t get rid of you, huh? Running into you here of all places? TitanCorp’s got standards, man. You’re bringing down the vibe!”“What the hell are you still doing here? Get lost before I call the security!”Emily widened her eyes at the scene. She turned to Nina, her tone filled with disbelief.“Nina, Liam is your husband! And you're just gonna stand there while this guy humiliates him?”Nina’s jaw tightened, a flicker of irritation crossing her face. Then, she scoffed.“Ex-husband, thank you very much.”“And honestly? If it weren’t for this

"Is it really true, as Jake Johnson said? You helped them secure the deal because you're close to him?"Under Liam's sharp gaze, Timothy's stomach dropped."Absolutely not! Young master," he immediately answered, "I have no personal connection with Mr. Johnson!""This deal is already in the process of being canceled; it's just that they haven't been notified yet.""I will inform them immediately that the deal is over!""And Nova Group will be blacklisted from collaborations with Titan Corp."Liam’s stare was ice. “Consider this your last warning.”Timothy swallowed hard. He nodded furiously, his head moving up and down like a jackhammer.As Liam walked away, Timothy turned to his assistants.“What are you waiting for? Cancel everything with Nova Group!” "From now on, they're no longer welcome! And no more any special treatment!"After giving the order, Timothy muttered to himself, "Without the Young Master's backing, Nova Group is just another ordinary company...""That woman, Nina.

The surrounding diners, oblivious to the full story, turned their heads toward Liam and Emily, whispering amongst themselves.Liam’s expression darkened.He was used to being misunderstood. Five years as the Nolan family’s punching bag had thickened his skin.But Emily? She didn’t deserve this.She’d only spoken up for him, and now Susan was dragging her through the mud.Susan, relentless as ever, jabbed a manicured finger toward Emily."If you can’t pay the three million, let your bitch cover it!" she spat.“She looks rich. Three million should be pocket change for her, right?”Liam’s jaw tightened as he stepped forward, placing himself between Emily and Susan like a shield."You’re just as trashy as your daughter," he said coldly. "Get out."Susan’s face twisted with rage as she lunged, raising her hand to slap him."How dare you! I’ll—"Liam’s hand shot up, catching her wrist mid-swing.“I said, get out.” His voice was quiet.Susan froze, her mouth half-open. She wanted to argue, t
