As Mrs. Sullivan shared her insight, I expressed my gratitude, saying, “Thank
you for telling me this.”
I felt relieved knowing that Mrs. Sullivan had no ill intentions toward me. Her
loyalty and care were genuine.
However, Liam was different from my father.
My father’s love for my mother was unwavering. He remained widowed after
her passing and never sought companionship with another woman.
Liam, on the other hand, appeared to love me only on the surface.
I could not help but think that the reason he refused my divorce request was
that I approached it with an unyielding and resolute attitude. This must have
raised concerns for him.
Considering that he relied on my family’s support and the recent transition in

the Nyra family, which had not been officially announced yet, he felt guilty.
By tricking my family into confining me to the house, he prevented me from
responding to the controversy circulating about me.

Allowing me to leave the house and proceed with the divorce would give me
the opportunity to fight back. Furthermore, the Nyra family did not hand
everything over to him for free. No matter how much he tried to wash away
the guilt, it will still linger.
Therefore, instead of granting the divorce, he continued to smear my
reputation.
From hotel records to rape allegations, he planned all this against me.
This way, when the news of Nyra Corporation’s change in ownership breaks
out, it would not be so shocking because I… I would deserve the
consequences of my actions.
And as for Rina…

When I was unconscious, I overheard Miss Shaw referring to Rina as “Reen.”

Perhaps Rina was being used as a tool, whether to secure Liam or simply as a
pawn for Liam and Miss Shaw to strangle me.
Understanding this level of manipulation, I even grasped why Rina harbored
such strong hatred toward me.
After all, with Miss Shaw’s status, even a love rival can only strive to please
her, right?
Despite being the “broke young lady,” I managed to get Liam without
resorting to drugging him.
However, my desire for it had vanished.
Liam returned at 11 o’clock, carrying a cloth box with him.
Upon entering the room, he greeted me and instructed, “Come here.”

He proceeded to the living room, placing the box on the coffee table and
opening its lid.
There was a cage inside the box, inside of which lay a blood–stained,
one–eared white rabbit.

The rabbit was smaller than my hand, lying weakly in a corner of the cage. If
it were not for the slight quivering of its eyelids, I might have mistaken it for
being lifeless.
I asked curiously, “Where did you get this come from?”
“I found it in the company’s parking lot,” Liam replied. “It was in this state,
discarded in a corner. When I passed by, I heard its heartbreaking screams
and thought it was a child.”
Rabbits were silent creatures and did not make much noise unless they’re in
significant pain.
Observing its trembling body, I asked, “Did the doctor treat it? Can it survive?

“It’s been born recently,” Liam said affectionately, gazing at the little white
rabbit. “Its intestines were exposed, but the doctor managed to stitch it up.
However, the chances of survival are uncertain. I guess we’ll leave it to fate.”
It was so tiny.
Feeling a sense of sympathy, I could not help but ask, “Did you buy food for it?
Does it eat or does it need to drink milk?”
Liam checked the pocket of his coat and replied, “It’s in my coat.”
Shortly after, the maid brought the rabbit food.
Liam gently squeezed a piece of food and placed it near the mouth of the
little white rabbit.
Despite being weak, the rabbit showed remarkable resilience. As soon as it
caught the scent of the food, it eagerly opened its mouth and ate the food.

Feeling relieved, I said, “Seems like it still has an appetite.” I also fed it a piece
of food.
Liam chuckled and remarked, “Even its appetite is better than yours.”
He glanced at me and continued to feed the rabbit, gently touching its cheek
with his finger while it ate.
The rabbit trembled at his touch, and Liam withdrew his hand, saying with a
smile, “You’re just like Vivi.”
After he spoke, he glanced at me, but I avoided his gaze and remained silent.
The rabbit bore some resemblance to me.
It was naive and not as clever as cats and dogs. It could not vocalize its
feelings unless necessary.
Similar to me, I was given a death sentence by a doctor at a young age.

But I did not want it to be like me. I had no more life to offer, and I did not want
to bring any back luck upon it.
Since the rabbit was still recovering from its serious injuries, it could not eat
much. After settling it in its place, we let it rest.
It was already noon by then, and Mrs. Crawford knew Liam was returning, and
had prepared many dishes.
While we ate, Liam occasionally glanced at me. After hesitating, he finally
asked, “What did Auntie Sidney say?”
I looked back at him and asked, “What?”
“I think she cried.”
“No,” I replied. “She was just telling me the truth.”
“What truth?” He tilted his head, showing interest, and pressed on reluctantly,
“Did it hurt you that much?”

Setting down my bowl, I looked at him and said, “Miss Shaw is so wealthy.
Why does she still live in my house? Wouldn’t it be better for her to buy a
house with a sea view?”
Liam raised an eyebrow, smirked, and asked, “Do you like rooms with a sea
view?”
I did not want to answer him, so I focused on eating the rice.

Suddenly, while we were eating, Liam picked up a drumstick and placed it in
my bowl.
I looked up at him.
“Either you feed yourself, or I’ll feed you,” Liam said. “I’ve raised rabbits, but
you’re not as good as rabbits.”
I replied, “Thank you.”
He picked up the drumstick and took a bite. After chewing for a moment, he

burst into laughter.

I raised my head and looked at him, seeing the joyous expression on his face
as he narrowed his eyes.
His laughter made me uneasy, so I asked, “What’s so funny?”
Liam shook his head with a smile and said, “Vivienne.”
His words made me alert.
“Are you jealous?” he asked, suppressing his smile. There was a lingering
depth in his eyes.
“I’m not jealous,” I insisted.
When he did not respond, I put down my cutlery and explained, “I’m not
jealous. I just think that a woman like Miss Shaw is rare, and you shouldn’t
miss out on her. You don’t have to be afraid, I just want to leave…”

“Vivionno Nyra” Liam interrupted, putting down his spoon. “Don’t ruin the view”
I remained silent.
“Aren’t you an expert at pretending?” He furrowed his brow. “Just keep
pretending.”
I said, “What do you mean by pretending…”
“Eat up,” he said, picking up a piece of ribs and placing it in my bowl. “If your
can’t finish eating, I’ll eat you.”
By the time I finished dinner, I was feeling full.
Liam had been serving me food, and I genuinely feared that he would “eat
me.” Despite my lack of appetite, I forced myself to eat.
Finally, Liam seemed satisfied. He picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth.
and said, “You’re suited for hard work.”

I glanced at Liam and was about to say something, but then a sudden
headache struck me.
Instinctively, I reached out to support my head, but I caught sight of Liar’s
gaze.
He swiftly covered his mouth with his hand and pretended to yawn.
Liam chuckled, “Feeling sleepy again?”
It was painful…

Previously, I had experienced only mild dizziness and nausea, but this was the
first time I had such intense pain.
