In the underground parking garage.

It was unusually quiet since it was a workday, with few cars and even fewer people, leaving only the sound of Harriet and Delbert's footsteps echoing.

Unseen by them, several figures lurked in the shadows.

Not long ago, Lily escaped from the gems trading center in embarrassment.

She ran into her brother, Liam, on her way home, who had rushed over after hearing about the drama.

Liam had been swamped at work because of Harriet and was both angry and resentful upon hearing that Lily had been dealt with by Harriet at Alan's gems trading center.

He didn't want to deal with his foolish sister.

But he realized that during this critical period, any slip-up by Lily could be exploited by Harriet in the court of public opinion. By then, the Lynch Group would be doomed. Without hesitation, Liam drove to the gems trading center to replace Lily.

When he saw her running out, disheveled, he knew she had been thrown out by Harriet.

Liam was aware that Lily had instigated the situation and, after losing a bet, accused Harriet of cheating before being forced to apologize.

Liam was surprised to see the extent of Lily's injuries.

Her face was swollen and bruised. Her nose was bloodied and only just stopped bleeding.

Despite that, he felt no sympathy for her-her actions had turned the Lynch family into a laughingstock in Imperium.

How could she expect his sympathy after such foolishness?

Without further discussion, Liam commanded, "Lily, go with me to apologize to Harriet at the jade trading center!"

Lily was stunned by his words.

She had been thrilled to see her brother because she needed his help with a plan against Harriet-a plan best implemented sooner rather than later.

But before she could share it, he demanded she apologize.

Why was her brother siding with Harriet just like Delbert and everyone else at the scene?

With a pout and a reluctant expression, Lily complained, "Liam, whose last name do you carry-Lynch or Munoz? It was Harriet who provoked me first. Why should I apologize to her? She doesn't deserve my apology!"

Hearing that, Liam knew of Lily's stubbornness and didn't waste words.

"No more nonsense. You're going to apologize today whether you like it or not!"

After shouting angrily, he reached for Lily's hand to drag her upstairs to apologize to Harriet.

In the past, he would have indulged his willful sister's every wish.

But now, the Lynch family's reputation in Imperium and the company's future were at stake.

Lily had no say in this matter.

At this moment, however, Lily suddenly grabbed Liam's hand.
