The Black Range Rover.
Emma Johnson and Liam Williams sat in the back seat, with Matthew Clark, the driver, still at the wheel.
Fortunately, the atmosphere between them today seemed peaceful. Matthew felt a little relieved.
"Liam, did you explain about the wontons this morning? Thank you. I loved them." Emma looked at him, her voice hesitant.
She wasn't entirely sure about this, but she figured she wouldn't die from asking. What was wrong with her husband doing these things for his new wife?
Liam's face remained cold. He pressed his lips together before speaking slowly. "Didn't you like them? I just said a few words."
He was never good at lying, so he hesitated for a long time before telling the truth.
"Oh, I just said, 'She doesn't like pasta.' Why?"
It was interesting. Emma had been with him for so long, yet she still didn't know he had so many quirks.
"In the past, when we were on duty in the army, we had to go out for more than two weeks at a time. The conditions were tough, so we basically ate steamed bread for three meals a day. So now, I'm tired of seeing it."
Liam explained slowly, unable to stop himself from thinking about that experience.
Back then, he was a high-ranking colonel in the army, a mighty warrior on the battlefield. But now, although he was still so popular, it was hard to find the wild and unruly Liam Williams from the army.
Now, Liam had become synonymous with being introverted, steady, and wise.
"So that's it. I can see you really loved being a special forces soldier, but you suffered so many injuries. Was it worth it?" Emma rested her chin on her hand and asked seriously.
"Was it worth it? I never thought about it. I just felt I was doing what a man should do."
Liam's love for that job went far beyond ordinary people's imagination. In his opinion, a man should stand up and protect what he loves, protect his family, and even have the ability to protect his country.
This sentence made Emma look at him with new eyes. Everyone who knew Liam envied his status and his omnipotence. Even when he sneezed, the whole city of Silverdale would tremble three times.
But how many people envied everything Liam had? He just wanted to think about what he liked, with such a big thing in his heart. As always, he had to rely on his will to support such a huge group. Shouldn't the pressure be immense?
Thinking of this, Emma began to feel a little sorry for him.
After all, being with Liam for so long, even she thought his life should be a perfect state. But who knew there was so much helplessness and bitterness in his heart?
It seemed like there was a lot of trouble on the outside, but who knew about his patience and perseverance?
Thinking of this, Emma sighed and turned to look out the window. It seemed autumn was like this every year.
But why, in the blink of an eye, had she become the wife of the president of Pinnacle Corporation and the daughter-in-law of the Williams family? Even though many things couldn't come true, at least now she had a happy life, sweet love, and a healthy family. Weren't these all her wishes?
Such a beautiful thing could only last for less than a year. She was still full of hope, waiting for happiness to arrive.
Life, with patience, would always get better.
Just like her and Liam. So many unexpected things had happened, but every time they could get out of danger.
Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, Liam looked back at Emma, who was lost in thought, and then scanned her outfit up and down.
She looked very different from the previous Emma.
Suddenly, Benjamin Williams' words flashed into his mind: "You're dressed so elegantly today. Are you going on a date with my brother this evening?"
A date?
It seemed they had been married for so long and hadn't had a formal date yet.
Liam bowed his head and thought for a while. He raised his hand and loosened his tie.
"You... look beautiful today..." Many times before, Emma had made him feel bright in front of his eyes, but he rarely took the initiative to speak out, and now he was stunned.
"Ah... What? What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly just now..." Emma was obviously in a daze. She only knew that Liam was talking to himself, but she didn't know what he was saying. She looked at him with a puzzled face.
Liam...
Forget it. He felt strange when he talked like this.
With a gloomy face, he looked at Emma once, turned a trace of disdain in his eyes, and didn't answer her words.
In this way, they fell into silence again.
The car drove very fast. In less than ten minutes, they arrived at the downstairs of New York Fashion Magazine.
Emma got out of the car, closed the door, walked a few steps, thought of something, ran back to Liam, and knocked on the window.
Liam gave her a blank look and pressed the window down.
"If you work overtime today, remember to have a good meal, or you'll have a bad stomach... Do you understand, Liam?" When she said this, a gust of wind blew outside. The autumn wind slightly lifted her khaki coat and disordered the fine hair on her forehead. But why did Liam still think the picture was too beautiful?
What's more, she got out of the car and ran back to tell him this?
He just nodded and didn't speak.
The car whizzed past Emma.
Her smile froze in place.
What was this? She cared about him so much, afraid he wouldn't eat on time even if he worked overtime. So she said so much. As a result, the man didn't even look up!
She was so angry!
Liam, would you lose a piece of meat if you said something?
Emma angrily walked into New York Fashion Magazine. At that moment, she simply regretted it to death.
She was cheap. When she was with a cold-blooded animal like Liam, she was either suffocated or cold-blooded.
...
Pinnacle Corporation.
Olivia Davis sat in the office, arranging the documents for the meeting. Suddenly, a tall, sexy woman came in.
She looked up. "Can I help you?"
"I've come to see your general manager. I don't know if he's in now," the sexy woman said.
"Do you have an appointment? If you want to see our general manager, you must make an appointment first..." Olivia said blandly. This kind of woman, at a glance, was up to no good.
Ethan Davis had gone too far. He was the future successor of Pinnacle, and he brought everyone to the company.
The first time they met, it was such a tangled situation, and now it was like this.
He was the boss. He was right in everything he did. But it was time to go to work. Was this how the boss of Pinnacle set an example for his subordinates?
