Second Chances
CHAPTER 81

Chapter 81

Emma was being childish. There was nothing to see. Liam tucked Emma into bed.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed Liam. “Liam…” Emma woke up again and looked at him with her big eyes.

“You’re very naughty. How much did you drink?” asked Liam,

“Not much… Hug?” Emma said.

Naughty people couldn’t have hugs. Liam swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. Before he could say “no“, he reacted honestly. He wrapped his arms around Emma. She

smelled nice.

“And a kiss.” Emma did not care about Liam’s current expression. She hooked her arms around his

neck and kissed him.

Their lips met in a deep kiss, and their desire rose.

Emma kissed Liam until he felt suffocated. She suddenly opened her eyes and looked at him, “I still

want to….

“What else do you want?” asked Liam.

Emma looked at him obediently. “I still want to… I won’t tell you.”

“You’re not going to tell me?” Liam leaned over Emma, suppressing her under him.

Emma was so confused that she did not react to what had just happened. Liam, who was in the wheelchair, suddenly pulled her onto the bed. A masculine aura enveloped her, and she couldn’t reject it.

Liam murmured, “What else do you want?” He kissed the back of her neck.

Emma could not help but feel itchy. She begged, “I still want to have a baby… I don’t want a baby, but I want to make one…” She spoke in a daze. She did not even know what she had said before she was swept away by passion.

When Emma woke up the next day, she could not remember anything, but her entire body was aching. She thought, ‘What happened? Did I get drunk and mess up?‘ However, when Emma thought. about it, she felt it was impossible. ‘Is Liam not planning to continue hiding the fact that he could

walk?‘

Astoma was looding puzzled, the phone by the bed viluated. When she saw the phone with ful

Lanchas helped her charge the phone, and Emma’s face flushed instantly

Emma picked up the phone, trying to sound calm. “Hello?”

“Madam, you’re awake?” the voice said.

“Levi?” Emma was overjoyed to hear his voice,

After the explosion in the Watery Garden, Levi was seriously injured and had been unconscious for a few days. Now that he called, it meant that he had recovered. “Madam, thanks to your wit i was able to save Mr. Hall last time. I’ve recovered now and have returned to work for Mr. Hall.”

Emma nodded. “That’s for the best. Liam has just taken over the Halls Group and needs your help.”

Levi replied, “Yes, I will assist Mr. Hall. Mr. Hall said that after you wake up, the driver will bring you to the Halls Group’s headquarters. He has a surprise for you today.”

“Oh? Really?” Emma was looking forward to it. Unexpectedly, when she got up, her body went unbelievably limp. “What exactly happened last night? Emma thought.

At the headquarters of Halls Group, Emma was welcomed into the lounge on the directors‘ floor. It was separated from the conference room by a wall of glass. Everyone inside could be seen clearly.

“Mr. Liam, it’s not that we don’t want to cooperate. It’s just that we’ve been working with Mr. Brad on this project. There has to be a period for us to adapt to each other, right?” The person talking was Brad’s trusted aide. It was obvious he did not take Liam seriously at all and only followed Brad’s lead.

These people were still waiting to see what happened. The change of the CEO of the Halls Group had yet to be confirmed. The various factions did not dare to offend either Liam or Brad. Everyone was procrastinating, and the company’s operations were a problem.

Liam remained calm. Levi, who was standing beside him, said, “You’re all shareholders of the Halls Group. It won’t do you any good if the share price falls.

“But that’s not what Mr. Brad told us,” one of the shareholders retorted.

“Construction has already started on a few projects. It’s unrealistic to stop them now,” another said.

“This is such an important decision. We have to wait for Mr. Brad to come back and discuss it

Together,” a third added.

The shareholders made all sorts of excuses, but Liam said directly, “Brad won’t be coming back.”

The board of directors looked at each other.

“This… can’t be, right?” someone asked,

“Didn’t Mr. Simon give Mr. Brad the Vark College project not long ago?” another asked.

When the shareholders saw how determined Liam was, their attitude toward him instantly changed subtly.

“Mr. Liam… did Mr. Simon tell you something in private?” one of them asked Liam.

“Nothing” Liam said, “But I won’t let Brad come back. The Vark College project will be taken over by the headquarters sooner or later”

Liam always meant what he said. The shareholders were speechless for a moment.

One of them rose angrily to his feet. “Mr. Liam, you can’t distort the truth. Mr. Brad has led us through a lot of Halls Group’s projects in recent years. He is only temporarily transferred. If you want to take his place, heal your legs first.”

Emma heard how rude the man was from the other side of the glass and frowned unhappily. “Who is he?”

“He’s Ivan Foster, Mr. Brad’s right hand man,” said the secretary in charge of receiving Emma, ‘Ivan Foster. He attacked Liam personally. How annoying‘ Emma made a mental note of the man.

With Ivan taking the lead, the other shareholders were emboldened.

“Mr. Liam, I still have a meeting this afternoon. I’ll go first,” one of them said.

“Mr. Liam, I’ll leave first,” another added.

“I still have to supervise the project at West Ocean. Mr. Liam, goodbye,” a third interjected.

The shareholders did not even finish the meeting before they started to leave. They were clearly looking down on Liam.

As the group of people opened the door to leave, Liam, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, suddenly stood up. His voice was deep and filled with threat and anger. “Who gave you permission to leave?”

1st Wed, 10 Jul D

Everyone turned. All the shareholders were dumbfounded. Liam had stood up. Everyone looked at his legs, It was true.

Liam walked over with a cold expression. “My legs are fine. So? Do you need me to fire you personally. or do you want to quit?”

Everyone in the meeting room was stunned. Only Levi silently gave Emma a thumbs up. He was telling her that this was the surprise Liam was talking about.

Emma replied with a thumbs up. She knew that Liam’s legs were fine, but seeing it with her own eyes. today still shocked her.

After enduring so long, it was finally time for Liam to reap his reward.

“Your legs have… recovered?” Someone couldn’t help but ask.

Liam sneered. “What do you think?” He paused before continuing, “Not only have I recovered, but I also have two pieces of news for you. The Supreme Court has already sentenced Elsie to five years in prison. I still have evidence that Elsie and Brad schemed against me for the plane crash back then. Not only Elsie, but the Mr. Brad that you’re loyal to will follow in her footsteps and go to jail.”
