The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 2109

It was the first time Benjamin saw Amber rebel against him. In a moment of desperation, he slapped her hard.

"He doesn't even like you, but you insist on marrying him! Why is my daughter such a dumb bitch? Would it kill you to break up with him? You're embarrassing!"

Amber's face grew swollen, and her lips bled.

Liam frowned and stopped Amber. "Stop arguing with Mr. Jenkins. Yes, what I did today was impudent. He should punish me. As for our marriage, I think it's better-"

Before he could say that they should forget about it, Amber covered his mouth and shook her head. "Our marriage has been decided. There's nothing to talk about. I must marry you. As for what goes between you and Ms. Everheart, I knew that beforehand. I'm fine with it. I won't blame you, either."

"Good grief, you're shameless! You're infuriating!" Benjamin didn't expect his gentle daughter to be so stubborn about the marriage. Furious, he clutched his chest. It took him a long time to calm himself.

"You're a fucking disaster, Liam! I should have never let you come here. I should have killed you during the journey. Now, I was tricked! You've put me in a spot!" Benjamin snarled, livid. He stormed out.

Benjamin may be cold and cruel, but he was a good father. Amber was his soft spot. Whenever she was involved, he compromised.

When Benjamin was gone, Amber pulled herself away from Liam and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Liam! My dad hurt you again because of me. I'm so sorry!"

"It's not because of you." Liam finally eased his breathing. He looked at Amber helplessly. "It's me. I manipulated and hurt you again. I'm the selfish one."

"No, you didn't! I wasn't forced." Amber started crying. "Your situation will only change by marrying me. If you don't marry me, my dad won't keep you alive, what with his temper. You have no choice. I just made use of this chance to be your wife. It's a blessing for me. You didn't hurt me!"

Before, Renee argued with Benjamin and insisted on taking Joanne away. Liam fell out with Benjamin just to help Renee.

Hence, Benjamin wanted to kill Liam. At first, he wanted to create an accident and kill Liam when Amber wasn't paying attention.

Unfortunately, Amber happened to overhear that plan. She stepped out and claimed she was in love with Liam. They had been intimate with each other, and wanted to marry.

At that time, Liam worked with Amber to find a chance to escape. He affirmed that he was in love with her, and sincerely wanted to marry her. They put on a lovey-dovey show until everyone in the fort believed that they were madly in love with each other-except Benjamin.

He felt that things weren't that simple. Thus, he set up a lot of challenges to test Liam and see if the latter was sincere toward Amber.

After passing such cruel trials and tests, Liam gradually changed. He became vastly different from his previous self. For a moment, he wanted to trample Amber and replace Benjamin to get a higher position.

By then, Benjamin felt that Liam was qualified to be his son-in-law and set the date for their wedding. Everything went on smoothly-until Renee's arrival ruined that illusion...
