Liana froze for a moment, then realized that they had already met each other.
That’s right, nobody can come and go freely in this villa unless Mr. Laurence personally brings them in
She hadn’t anticipated, though, that even after their meeting, Ms. Shultz would continue to fiercely
resist Mr. Laurence Could it be that their misunderstandings still hung in the air, unresolved?
Liana hesitated for a moment, then gathered up her courage again and said to Eleanor, “Ms. Shultz,
Mr. Laurence really loves you. After you passed
away…”
“Liana”
Eleanor suddenly called out her name and Liana immediately stopped.
“You are the fourth person to tell me that he loves me after I returned to the country.”

They seem to think that if she knew Bernard loved her, she would go back to him immediately.
But, did they ever consider her feelings?
Did they ever wonder what kind of person Bernard was in her eyes?
Unable to restrain her emotions any longer, Eleanor looked at Liana with red eyes.
“Liana, if he loved me, would he force me to kneel and serve him wine after we broke up?”

“Would he hold his fiancée’s waist and tell me ‘who do you think you are?”
“Would he slap me hard, knowing that I have a heart condition?”
“Would he not even save my phone number?”
“If he loved me, would he still be sleeping with Sophie before I died?”

unfortunate accident.
Liana walked in and saw Bernard, dressed in a suit, drinking with one hand.
The bar was messily filled with bottles of alcohol at least a dozen, and in Bernard’s hand was a pil
Seeing this scene, Liana rushed over and snatched the pill from him. Her face turned pale when she
realized it was a sleeping pill.
“Mr. Laurence, did you take thus pill?”
