Greg blurted out these words all at once.
He saw the pained expression on Liora’s face, and in that moment, his rationality returned. He felt a twinge of regret.
Greg was about to apologize when a fist suddenly smashed into his face!
Nathan’s face darkened as he pinned Greg to the ground, punching him in the face repeatedly.
The woman he had doted on with all his heart was belittled by him to the point of worthlessness!
Greg’s face was instantly swollen from the punch, he wanted to fight back, but Nathan was going crazy.
“Nathan, stop it! Liora tried to pull them apart, but found that she couldn’t.”
It wasn’t until the villagers arrived at last that the two were reluctantly pulled apart.
Half an hour later, Greg was taken away by the villagers, and the bedroom returned to quietness.
Liora hung her head, her eyes red as she applied medicine to Nathan’s bloody hand, her voice choked up: “Your hand was so beautiful, it’s all my fault, now it’s all ruined.”
Nathan held Liora’s hand back, he opened his mouth and tried a few times before.
Chapter 10
Finally, a hoarse voice came from his throat: “Don’t, don’t be sad.”
Liora looked up in astonishment, her eyes filled with surprise.
“How…how can you speak?”
Although Nathan’s voice was a bit harsh and hoarse with a hint of stuttering just now, Liora was still very touched.
“Nathan, are you ready to talk?”
Nathan also froze, he opened his mouth again and struggled to speak, “I, I don’t know either, I just wanted to comfort you.”
“You didn’t do anything wrong, on the contrary, I feel like you were unfairly treated. Liora, I have always wanted to tell you myself, I love you.”
Three sentences, Liora’s eyes turned red in an instant.
She was leaning on Nathan’s shoulder, choking back sobs.
She had imagined countless times the scenario where Nathan might speak again, but she never expected it would be to comfort her.
“Nathan, thank you.”
“I loved you too.”
The news that Nathan could speak soon reached Sylvia’s ears.
After learning the news, Sylvia spent the whole day smiling from ear to ear, telling everyone she met, “My daughter–in–law Liora is such a lucky
star.”
She instructed Jordon to purchase a villa in the center of New York City, with only Liora’s name on the deed, as a reward for her.
Chapter 14
Jordon shook his head silently.
Sylvia had so many daughters–in–law, but she had a special fondness for
Ms. Calden.
A week later, the Collen family announced Nathan’s grand wedding to the public.
As soon as the news broke, Liora received a group voice call from her best friends, and all three of them were very excited..
‘Liora, I am really happy for you.”
“I always said you were a good person, and now that your hard times are over, we are really happy.”
“I don’t care, we were going to be bridesmaids.”
When Greg heard that Liora and Nathan were going to get married, he was still in the hospital bed.
He was hit by Nathan, causing a fracture in his nasal bone, swelling on the right side of his face, and his left eye almost bursting.
Looking at the wedding photos of the two, Greg squinted his eyes, a hint of resentment floating in his deep eyes.
Why? Wasn’t it Liora who loved him at first?
When Talia found out that Liora was going to marry into the Collen family in New York, she was sitting in her bedroom.
She looked at the wedding photo of the two people in her phone, her eyes full of jealousy!
Over the past two years, Talia watched as the female classmate she had

Chapter 10
bullied slowly gained her father’s favor, driving her to near madness with jealousy.
Talia was not stupid. She tried to show kindness to her stepdaughter and wanted to be friends with her.
However, instead of taking care of her, the foster daughter not only ignored her but also learned the bullying tactics that Talia used in middle school, setting traps from time to time to frame Talia and complain to
Deacon.
Whenever the adopted daughter cried, Deacon would sternly take out his whip and beat Talia.
Under the dual torment of body and mind. Talia once lost her mind and fell down the stairs, accidentally rolling down.
Due to Talia’s usual harsh treatment of the maids, no one helped her when she fell down the stairs. She missed the best time for rescue and ended up permanently disabled.
A week later, on the day of the wedding, Nathan came to the villa to pick up the bride.
He gave each bridesmaid a gift box and smiled as he carried Liora downstairs.
Not far away, Greg sat in the driver’s seat of a white Land Rover.
He looked at the lively and joyous scene of the wedding procession in front of him, his black eyes full of hatred.
The next second, he stepped on the gas pedal and drove towards Nathan
and Liora!
Just as it was about to have an accident, a modified tank suddenly rushed

Chapter 19
forward.
The tank collided head–on with the speeding Land Rover!
The Land Rover couldn’t resist the impact, spun around twice in place, and then crashed into another villa on the side.
The front of the Land Rover instantly deflated, and Greg, who was in the driver’s seat, had a head injury and was bleeding. He instantly passed out.
The wedding proceeded as planned, and no one paid too much attention. to the unexpected incident.
A week later, Liora arrived at the hospital ward.
Looking at Greg with a breathing tube inserted in his nose and injuries all over his body, she had a complex expression in her eyes.
Even though Greg had hurt her before, she had always hoped to part ways amicably with him.
However, she underestimated human nature and misjudged people.
Greg never truly loved her from the beginning to the end.
He just got used to being treated well by himself, used to treating himself
as an accessory.
So he withdrew himself, became angry and lost control only when he fell in love with someone else, and committed some criminal acts.
Fortunately, Nathan had already seen that Greg had thoughts of revenge, so he had already sent someone to secretly observe Greg.
The modified tank, which Nathan had prepared early on, was just to deal with Greg wanting to drive and crash into them.
Chapter 19
“Greg, you attempted murder. Nathan and I have already informed the
lawyer about everything you have done. You will receive a subpoena from the court soon.”
Greg looked at Liora with red eyes. As reason returned, he regretted once again, his voice hoarse as he said, “I’m sorry…”
Liora shook her head, expressionless: “It’s too late.”
Three months later, Greg was sentenced to three years in prison.
This news caused a sensation throughout Davis.
Another month passed, and Liora discovered she was pregnant.
Nathan gently caressed her belly, his amber eyes filled with tenderness and anticipation. “We have a baby now.
Liora tilted her head, suddenly remembering a scene from when she first met Nathan, and asked curiously, “I remember the first time I saw you, your eyes were icy cold when you turned around.
“But it’s strange, just in a second, the look in your eyes changed.”
“I still can’t understand, what did you see back then that made you change so quickly?”
Nathan rubbed Liora’s hand, lowered his head and gently kissed the back of her hand, saying, “I don’t know, I just know that when I first saw you, I couldn’t bear to be cold to you.”
At that moment, he saw Liora for the first time and noticed a sense of brokenness in her.
That was the expression that only appeared after experiencing serious
trauma.

In those few seconds when he was lost in thought, he saw through Liora’s eyes the self who had once lost his parents one after another and was left
all alone.
As for later, he was not even sure why he had so much patience with
Liora.
He only knew that he couldn’t bear to be indifferent to Liora, couldn’t bear to make Liora angry.
Liora suddenly realized, her pink lips curling up slightly: “I see, you fell in love with me at first sight.”
“It’s possible too, Nathan said, a smile playing at the corner of his mouth.”
He took Liora for a walk in the yard.
The setting sun cast rays of sunlight on the two figures, creating a layer of golden light.
