“What?” Liam’s eyes widened in shock. His lips parted slightly, remaining agape for a long moment.

While on the Erennd frontline, Liam kept his marriage a secret, so everyone assumed he was single
It was at the charity party that Liam first learned that A was actually Madelyn.
Diego <b>was </b>arade Liam met on the Erend frontline–his closest friend there.
When Liam woke up after his brush with death, Diego <b>had </b>already been <b>transferred </b>back.
Life on the frontline was so intense they could barely use their phones, let alone swap contacts
Although Aria had been to the Erennd frontline, she probably never crossed paths with Diego,
“How did Diego <b>even </b>know Aria was my wife?” Liam wondered<b>, </b>his mind reeling
A dreadful suspicion Liam couldn’t bring himself to believe shed through his mind, his heart clenching painfully. His face tightened with tension, and his voice trembled as he asked, “Diego, you… have you ever met my wife?”
“Yeah, I have!” Diego said, looking utterly confused–he just couldn’t figure out why Liam was so shocked.
He then said, “Professor Cotton came to the frontline with inhibitors, looking for <b>you</b><b>. </b>I told her you were critically ill and presumed dead, already thrown in with the corpses scheduled for mass cremation<b>. </b>
“She pushed past everyone to find you herself. When she discovered you were still alive<b>, </b>she pulled you out. And it wasn’t just you there were seven. other critically ill patients who were nearly <b>sent </b>for cremation by mistake. Professor Colton saved all of you.
“Professor Colton even treated you herself. Something felt off, so I asked her what your rtionship was. She told me you were her husband.”
For those ten–odd seconds as Diego spoke, Liam went from confusion to utter shock, his eyes zing over in a daze, struggling to process what he’d <b>just </b>
heard.
“So it was Aria all along–she’s the one who <b>saved </b>me it wasn’t Hannah!” Liam realized
<b>Liam </b>was at a loss for words–a torrent of shock, anger, and remorse overwhelmed him.
over the two years they were together.
He hadpletely misunderstood Aria–even filed for divorce, dismissing all her sacrifices over
At that moment, Liam had to admit he’d beenpletely wrong about Hannah.
He’d always thought Hannah was kind, virtuous, and utterly selfless.
But in reality, she was arrogant, giarized others research, and even framed Aria for murder.
<b>Wasn’t </b>he just as much an aplice?
Liam clenched his fists, veins bulging prominently on the backs <b>of </b>his hands.
“Sorry, everyone!” Muttering a quick apology, Liam spun around and bolted to the parking lot, then sped straight to the Gibson family estate
Hannah, having qualified for release on bail<b>, </b>was currently under house arrest at the Gibson family estate.
Upon arrival, Liam strode in swiftly. The butler spotted him and greeted politely, “Mr. Cole, are you here to see Ms. Gibson<i>?</i><i>” </i>
Suppressing his emotions, Liam replied tersely,
10:44 <b>Sun </b>15 JON G
The butler said, “Please wait a moment,”
Immediately upon hearing that Liam had arrived, Hannah quickly changed into a cute little dress and dashed downstairs, calling out cradly –
In her haste, she nearly crashed into Liant’s arms.
Instead of catching her, he firmly grasped her shoulders to stop het momentum.
Hannah stumbled, her feet slipping, but managed to regain her bnce just in time.
Meeting Liam’s intense gaze, Hannah’s heart clenched, “Liam, what’s wrong?” she asked.
Liam’s expression hardened as he met her gaze. “Hannals,” he demanded, “were you really the one who saved me?
Under his piercing gaze, Hannah didn’t dare let even the slightest flicker of emotion cross her face. Forcing certainty into her voice, she said, “It was me
Liam red at her, his voice trembling with anger. “You’re lying! It was Aria who saved me!”
Hannah’s eyes <b>widened </b>in shock, <b>panic </b>flickering uncontrobly. “Liam, did Aria im she was the one who saved you? You actually believe her?”
“It was me who saved you!” Hannah insisted. “I never left your side, tirelessly caring for you <b>day </b>and night–it’s always been me
Disappointment filled Liam’s eyes as he took a step back. 7 can’t believe I ever fell for someone so fake, someone whose whole image was built on lies, he thought bitterly.
