The Sweetest Trophy Wife by Beanie

Chapter 83 The Image of a Loving Father 

“Why, you. Gwyneth, what are you talking about?” Gaspard cautiously spoke, feeling somewhat guilty. As he retorted, he subtly glanced at 

Liam. 

“What I’m trying to say is that ever since I moved out a few years ago, our father–daughter relationship ended,” Gwyneth held her arms and spoke each word with precision. She resisted acknowledging she was a part of the Glen family with every word she said, with her body rigid and her expression uninterested. 

However, only Liam and Wanda could sense that Gwyneth’s words were like a knife wielded against herself. 

“Mr. Glen, if I were you, I would have stayed far away and not pulled any feelings.” Gwyneth said. Her hands were firmly clenched into fists. 

“Stop pretending!” 

Her last sentence was not loud, but it carried a weight that made Gaspard’s body tremble. He did not anticipate Gwyneth to say such 

words to him in a public setting. He intended to act in front of Liam. But now, he did not need to act like a loving father as his anger surged. 

At this moment, Judy, at the side, watched things develop. She almost successfully grabbed Liam’s arm. Yet, looking at his displeased 

face, she hesitated and spoke softly, “Liam. Look at Gwyneth. She has absolutely no manners. She’s talking back to her father just like that. 

Judy deliberately spoke in a low tone, causing Gwyneth unable to hear what she was saying, but Elizabeth could. 

Judy’s only reason for attending the auction today was that she knew Liam was present. Now that she has encountered such an opportunity, how could she not take advantage of it? 

Judy just spoke her mind, all of it, not minding if it was alright to say it or not. It was best il she succeeded in letting Liam feel disgusted with Gwyneth and divorced her. 

Elizabeth did not know Judy’s intentions or the means she would employ. But Gwyneth was a thorn in her flesh; getting rid of it would never be wrong. Lowering her head, Elizabeth subtly glanced around before passing by Judy and took a step forward. 

“Although it’s not my place as an outsider to speak, Ms. Glen, you, as a junior, should stop talking and save yourself from laughter,” Elizabeth’s words seemed like she smoothened the atmosphere. But in fact, she was highlighting Gwyneth’s ignorance and immaturity. 

This was probably where everyone kicks a man when he’s down. But these people got it wrong. Gwyneth snorted. She still stood here; a 

few words could never tear her down. 

Several people gathered in a circle, each hiding their thoughts. This situation has started to look strange. At this moment, in the corner of 

the exhibition hall, the head of the Glacier Lake project started the project’s introduction. 

Tired of continuing the confrontation, Gwyneth straight up remained silent. She did not even glance at Liam before walking directly toward the corner of the Glacier Lake project with Wanda. 

Once Gwyneth left, only a group of people remained, each staring at one another dumbfounded. Gaspard pondered for a moment, looking at Liam. He thought about when he called himself Liam’s father–in–law, Liam did not resist nor refute. There was still a chance for him. 

Although Gaspard looked down on Gwyneth, it would be great if she could help him win over Liam. He could not be the one to approach Liam in this matter. Neither his status nor seniority would make sense. Aller considering it carefully, he decided to count on Judy. 

The father and daughter seemed to have the same idea. After a few seconds of eye contact, they reached an agreement. 

*Liam, look at Gwyneth’s temper. How could she leave like that? Even after all these years, she hasn’t changed much. Please don’t take offense,” Gaspard said. He walked in front of Liam, hands jostling each other, his face filled with a smile. 

This was the image of a loving father who wanted Liam, the husband, to tolerate Gwyneth’s temper. Although Liam was silent the entire time, he did not miss the expression on the faces of these people. Hearing Gaspard trying to play the role of Gwyneth’s father, he felt sorry for her. At last, he could not help it and chuckled. The corner of his lips raised, showing a fake smile. He clasped his arms and gently shook his head without saying a word. 

Not one was sure of Liam’s expression. To say the least, they did not understand Liam at all. Not just Gaspard and Judy, even Elizabeth did not know what was happening in Liam’s mind.. 

After exchanging glances, they could not come to any delinite conclusion. And an awkward silence filled the air. 

Judy tilted her head and was lost in thought as she watched Liam’s sharp profile. After snapping back to reality, she immediately cleared 

her throat, covering up her previous awkwardness. 

“How about checking out the projects? Is there anything worth investing in? Anything that interests you?“
