At first, she decided not to pick up, but when the phone began to ring again, she changed her mind.She picked up the phone, quickly rushed down to her room, and shut the door behind her, trying to block out her mom's yelling."Hello?" Alisha answered, her voice still shaky from sobbing.“Hey, Alisha. How're you?” Liam asked.“I'm fine.” She replied, her voice shaky.Liam noticed her shaky voice and also heard the background noise from the other end."Alisha? What's going on? Are you okay?" Liam's concerned voice came through the phone."Yea, I'm fine," she tried to say, but her voice betrayed her, yet again."Your voice doesn't sound fine," Liam insisted. "Tell me what's really wrong.""It's nothing serious," she lied. "Just a little quarrel with my mom, that's all." She tried to cheer herself up by changing her tone, forcing a smile even though Liam couldn't see it

Chapter 209"And who were you on the call with?" Kate demanded, her eyes narrowing.Alisha hesitated, then lied, "I called the police to come and intervene since you won't calm down."Kate's face turned red with fury.

Chapter 212James was in Mrs. Lee's office, sorting through some documents. After the success of the court case, he had quickly resumed work. From time to time, he received calls from loved ones congratulating him on the case. He hadn’t had time to carry out his plans because of one problem or another constantly being hurled his way. He had hoped that after the case, now would be the time to take charge by revealing his identity and rewarding everyone based on how they treated him. But it seemed that a new obstacle was looming.Liam Carter was hell-bent on acquiring half of EMC.James leaned back in his chair, his mind racing. The phone rang again, interrupting his thoughts. He picked it up, already weary from the constant interruptions.“Hello, James speaking," he answered."James, it's Eric. I saw Alisha bringing her dad to Skycare, are you aware?"James's brow furrowed. "No. Who was she with?” He asked and sat up on his seat. “And How did she afford to take him to Skycare?"Eric s

Chapter 213Mr. Sterling stormed through the halls of EMC, his face a mask of fury. Employees scattered out of his way, sensing the brewing storm. Without knocking, he barged into James' office, slamming the door behind him.James looked up from his desk, calmly raising an eyebrow. "Mr. Sterling, to what do I owe this unexpected visit?""Cut the crap, fool!" Mr. Sterling spat. "What the hell do you think you're doing terminating the contract with Eternal Superstore?"Obviously, James was expecting the confrontation. He leaned back in his chair, folding his arms. "I believe that contract was no longer beneficial to EMC. It was a decision made in the best interest of the company.""Beneficial?" Mr. Sterling sneered. "You mean it's beneficial to you and your pathetic power play. Do you have any idea who you're messing with?"James maintained his composure, his voice steady. "I'm well aware of who you are, Mr. Sterling. And I'm also aware that EMC deserves better deals than what Eternal S

Chapter 214Lana was instructing her PA in the reception when she caught sight of James walking in. Without another word, she dismissed her assistant and almost ran towards James, a big smile spreading across her face. She hugged him tightly.“James!” She exclaimed as James hugged her back.“Congratulations on winning the lawsuit!” she exclaimed.James grinned and teased her, “You look like someone going on a date with the sun.”Lana laughed and playfully spanked him. “Oh, stop it, you flatterer!” she said, leading him towards her office.They reached her office, and Lana gestured for him to sit down. “Make yourself comfortable.

"I've missed you," she said softly.Williams returned the hug, holding her romantically. "I've missed you too," he replied.James, still in the room, looked away, pretending not to notice their interaction. He picked up a pen from her desk and began to fidget with it.Williams apologized, "I'm sorry I haven't made time for you lately. Work has been hectic."
