Chapter 6
Savannah’s hands continued roaming over Liam’s body.
When he didn’t push her away, she slowly guided his hand to her waist.
Beautiful woman, good wine–it would be a waste not to take advantage under the moonlight.
But this time, Liam delivered a stinging slap across Savannah’s face.
“That video–you sent it to Miranda, right?“[]
“Savannah, you’ve got some nerve going behind my back to provoke my wife!“]]
One slap shattered all of Savannah’s fantasies.
Having been constantly indulged by Liam, she looked up in disbelief.[]
“You hit me? For that old hag you hit me?”
“She’s the one who did wrong, not me! She knew you didn’t love her anymore but still clung desperately to her position as Mrs. Reynolds.“]]
If she’d just gracefully stepped aside for us, none of this would have happened. This is all her fault!“[]
Liam’s grip tightened on his glass until it creaked under the pressure.
He laughed coldly, his features sharpened by moonlight looking even more cutting.[]
“How dare you compare yourself to her?”

“Miranda is my lawful wife, the woman who’s weathered eight years of storms by my side, the hostess of the Reynolds household acknowledged by everyone. What are you? Nothing!”
Savannah froze.
The man before her suddenly resembled Miranda from that day in the café. Those knowing eyes, like a sharp sword, nailed her to a pillar of shame.]]
“But… you said you liked
- me.

“You said I was young and beautiful and smart. You said my waist was slim, that Dior clothes highlighted my figure perfectly. You took me shopping, bought me so many clothes and jewelry…“]
She tried recalling every little detail as evidence of Liam’s affection.[]
But she was met only with bitter laughter.[]

“I dismiss hundreds of women like you every year. With a wave of my hand, countless you
autiful girls would come running, but Miranda is different!”
“Our families have extensive business connections. She controls my company’s finances.“]
“She has a vast network, exceptional work skills, client management, crisis handling–she handles it all. And you? You can’t even tell imported coffee from domestic brands. You fucking idiot dare compare yourself to her?!“]
Initially furious, Liam’s voice softened as he continued, tinged with heartache.
“More importantly, I love her. Even if over time that love transformed partly into familiarity and habit, she
“I told you
Dior looked good on you only because when I first met Miranda, she was wearing a Dior dress.”
Liam’s feelings for Miranda were complex.
But his feelings for Savannah were embarrassingly simple.
It wasn’t even lust.
It was more like absentmindedly petting a stray cat or dog that sought attention.[]
The notion that he would sacrifice his career and family for such a trivial attachment was absurd.]
These revelations hit Savannah like a thunderbolt
She dissolved into uncontrollable tears.
That’s impossible. You’re just saying this on purpose, right?“]

But Liam coldly pried her fingers away one by one.
“Stop deluding yourself.“]]
“You know perfectly well I never touched you that night. From the day we met until now, I’ve never laid a hand on you.“[]
That night, as they removed their clothes and were about to cross the final line, Liam suddenly regained his senses.
He couldn’t bear the consequences of such an action.]]

So at the last moment, he stopped.[]
But what he hadn’t anticipated was that bitch Savannah would send edited footage to Miranda.[]
Savannah’s face drained of color as she struggled to breathe through her sobs.]
Liam calmly lit a cigarette, not sparing her even a glance.]]
“I’m going to find Miranda and bring her back.“[]
You have two choices: disappear from my life forever, or spend the rest of your days in prison!“]]
Without giving her time to think, Liam ordered security to drag her out.]
