Chapter 8

Liam was in a panic. He didn't give up and called Lillian several more times.

When he found himself not getting through, he tried to use Lillian's other contact information and sent her messages.

However, no matter how many times he tried, his messages wouldn't go through. Lillian had blocked all his contact information.

He clutched his phone tightly, and his face turned pale at the thought that Lillian might have left him.

Suddenly, the office door swung open.

Lindsay strode in and flung herself into Liam's arms. She cried bitterly. "Mr. Anderson, Lillian has gone too far. She secretly filmed us and posted the video online. I'm being dragged through the mud."

Liam was shocked and pushed her away in disbelief.

He glanced at the office door and noticed his employees peeking in. They were clearly curious.

Liam's temples throbbed. "Are you out of your mind? Why would you come to the office now? Do you want to make things worse?"

Lindsay's eyes flickered.

Although she was embarrassed by the video, she was secretly joyful. Everyone knew now that she was Liam's woman. So Liam could no longer distance himself from her.

She wouldn't have to hide anymore.

With reddened eyes, she looked at him and eagerly showed her loyalty. "Of course, I came to you. Such bad things were happening, and I need to side with you through thick and thin. Lillian invaded my privacy, and I must hold her legally accountable, even if she's your wife. I won't let her get away with it."

She embraced Liam, and her chest pressed softly against his arm. She was silently enticing him as usual. "Mr. Anderson, I've heard that Lillian deliberately forced those business partners to terminate their contracts with your company. She is pressuring you. She's obviously jealous of your affection for me and is using this tactic to grab your attention."

Liam was stunned. She ignored Lindsay's seductive gestures but absorbed her words.

He and Lillian had known each other for over a decade, and Lillian loved him deeply. Now she was pregnant with his baby.

He was just having a fling. How could she possibly leave him for that?

They had argued about that before.

Perhaps he had neglected Lillian recently, which caused her to act out to capture his attention.

Lindsay remained angry.

"Hmph, the company is yours, not hers. Liam, I can't believe it can't survive without her."

Liam's eyes flickered. He now believed that Richard's talk of bankruptcy was exaggerated.

The company had survived for so many years. It couldn't be dependent on Lillian that much.

Rich men always had other women.

Lillian was carrying his baby now and was surely waiting for him to swallow his pride and beg her to come back.

Since Lillian wanted to cause a scene, he might as well use this opportunity to curb her temper. After she came back again, she'd be more compliant and stop meddling in everything.

Liam's gaze turned icy as he sat down and pulled out the list of business partners who intended to terminate their contracts with him. He started to contact them one by one.

Yet, after he spent a whole day calling them, his confidence dwindled into self-doubt.

Not a single business partner was willing to renew their contracts with him.

As he was in shock, Richard rushed in. "Mr. Anderson, Lillian's company shares have been sold. They've all been held by Emilio Moore, the CEO of the Moore Group."

Liam jumped to his feet. "That's impossible. Emilio is my archrival. How could Lillian sell her shares to him?"

Richard said with a bitter smile, "But Emilio's team is already here. They started to take over the company..."

Liam staggered and muttered, "Impossible... That can't be happening..."

Lindsay stomped her foot in anger. "Lillian is utterly malicious. She's trying to ruin both you and the company."

Liam couldn't process her words. He remembered Lillian gave him that meaningful look when she boarded the plane.

She told him that she had a gift for him.

Liam abruptly shoved Lindsay aside and rushed downstairs.

He opened the car door and frantically pulled open the glove compartment.

Suddenly, he froze.

Inside lay the divorce certificate. It was sharp and undeniable.
