Neil remained calm. âI trust her. Grandma will be fine.â
Melanie gritted her teeth. There was anger written all over her face.
âYou trust her? Neil, have you been blinded by love? Now that Liamâs taken Remus Corporation and your grandmotherâs whereabouts are unknown, itâs possible that Silvia and Liam are in cahoots!â
Neil was instantly offended by her words. He was filled with dissatisfaction.
âMom, I donât want to hear you say anything like that again.â
Seeing that he was truly angry, caution flashed across her eyes. She was still a little fearful of her son.
âIâm just reminding you. Iâm doing this for your own good!â
Neil was apathetic. âI donât need you to do that.â
âHow dare you!â
Melanie was so angry that her face turned red. She then left in a huff.
Jake frowned as he looked at Neil. âNeil, your grandmotherâs safety is not a trivial matter. We need to find her and Silvia as soon as possible. Forget your mother, even I wonât let Silvia off the hook if anything happens to your grandmother!â he said solemnly.
After that, he chased after Melanie.
In less than an hour, Liam learned of Melanie and Jakeâs return.
He smiled as he sat in his living room and savored some red wine that had just been shipped from abroad. âSince everyoneâs here, itâs time for them to give me back what they owe me!â
His butler lowered his eyes and said, âSir, what about Madam Remus and Miss Pond?â
âKeep looking. Two full-grown adults canât just disappear like that all of a sudden!â
âNoted!â
After his butler left, Ada walked out of the bedroom and entered the kitchen to pour a glass of water. When she passed by the living room, Liam called out to her.
âCome over here!â
Ada stopped and turned to him.
âWhatâs the matter?â
Noticing the wariness in her eyes, Liam scoffed. âIf I really wanted to harm the child in your belly, do you think you could escape?â
She kept quiet for a few seconds and slowly walked toward him.
Just as she approached the couch. Liam wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into his embrace.
Ada gasped in surprise and subconsciously reached out to protect her belly. Her heart was filled with fear.
âDonât be afraid.â
In the next second, Liam caressed her flat belly and spoke with some distaste, âWhy isnât the baby kicking?â
Ada was shocked. She looked at Liam as if she was staring at a ghost.
Not too long ago, he tried to get her to abort the baby. So, why was he suddenly acting like he was looking forward to the childâs arrival?
âItâs only been a month. Itâs still the size of a soybean. How could it possibly be kicking?â
Liam raised an eyebrow in surprise. âItâs that small?â
âYes.â
Ada removed his hand from her stomach and softly said. âIf thereâs nothing else, Iâm going to bed.
Liam did not get angry. He wrapped his arms around her waist and said, âAfter the babyâs born, weâll get married.â
By then, his revenge would pretty much be over.
Ada frowned. âLiam, whatâs wrong with you today?â
Why would he suddenly say something like that?

Her eyes were full of disbelief as she pushed him away and got up. âIâm going to rest.â
He did not stop her, but Ada could feel that his eyes were glued to her. The feeling of being watched only disappeared after she entered the bedroom and closed the door.
