Cynthia smiled prouilly. “He won’t kick me out now, will he?”
Liam sighed heavily, but couldn’t find it in himself to blame her, so he turned around and returned to his seat to sulk
Cynthia’s actions took Ziv aback, but sering Liam finally give up, he secretly gave her a thumbs–up. Cynthia gestured for him to step outside first.
After Ziv left, Cynthia walked over and put her arms around Liam’s neck from behind Softly, she called, “Honey… Honey… Honey…,”
The long, drawn–out calls of “honey had Liam surrendering immediately. This time, he didn’t hesitate to pull her into his lap. “Will you be this impulsive again the next time?”
Cynthia shook her head obediently. Although she was secretly planning the exact opposite, she chose not to argue with him. Seeing her behave so well, Liam couldn’t hold back any longer, and the expression on his face softened. He reached out to pinch her nose, sighing helplessly but dotingly. “You…
Cynthia grinned and nuzzled against his fingers.
Liam’s heart turned to butter in his chest. He patted her rear and said, “Let’s go.”
To do what she asked.
“Didn’t you wam to give me a massage?” Liam reminded.
The two of them went to the lounge, where Liam lay on the bed while Cynthia massaged several parts of his body. Perhaps it was the work of the medicine he had just taken, or he was too uncomfortable, but Liam fell asleep quickly.
After Cynthia massaged him, she covered him with a blanket, lay down beside him, and periodically took his temperature
Meanwhile, in the intensive care unit of Peace Hospital, William had just woken from a coma. However, he almost fainted again when he heard Lewis‘ words. He reached out angrily and pointed at the people before him, shouting “Anthony and 1 aren’t dead yet, but you’ve all already started worrying about the company?
Lewis was in a wheelchair and being pushed by Sophia. He had lost movement in all his limbs, hot his face was full of frigned affection. “Dad, Clara Group is such a big company; it can’t go withour management for even a day. Now that you’re in poor health and Anthony is unconscious, the only people who can manage the company are my two daughters. If you don’t want to hand it over to them, then who? Outsiders?”
“He’s right, Dad. Although the Clara family rules state that a woman can’t manage the company, there’s no one else left, Sophia echoed. “Emily studied management when she was in university. She is perfectly qualified for the position of CEO of Clara Group.”
Emily and Amelia were tasked with the responsibility of sitting quietly next to them. The family had planned to take over the company forcefully while William was still asleep. However, Williams unexpectedly woke up last night, causing them to temporarily change their plans. They approached him early in the morning and demanded that he hand over Clara Group to them before Sullivan Group issued a notice. However, regardless of how much they tried to persuade him, William refused to give in. Their expressions grew increasingly impatient.
Angrily, William shouted, “Get out of here! Never think about taking over the company again! Anthony will wake up soon. You don’t have to worry about the company.”
The family members exchanged a look. Lewis expression turned frigid. He turned his cold gaze to William and spat. “You’re dreaming, Da:!. Anthony’s now in a vegetative state. He’s not waking up. Even if you despise my two daughters, the company can only be handed to them. He’s the one who made me like this. I want to tear out his tendons and skin him alive! Do you think I let him wake up and fight with me for the company! Since you’re still thinking about him. I’ll give you a wake–up call
William was so angry that he almost jumped out of bed. “I should have let Anthony kill you directly in the first place, you ingrate! If you dare hurt Anthony, I’ll not spare you.”
In front of William, Lewis laughed fearlessly for the first time. Then, he said viciously, “After I defeat Anthony, my family will be the only branch Ich. I don’t think you could bear the thought of someone else taking over the Clara family’s foundation,
William held onto the bed, struggling to get up. The ward door suddenly opened, and Hunk and Isabella entered with a child in their arms.
“Who said you all were the only branch left!” Hunk asked somberly. They had heard the ill intentions of Lewis and his family while they were outside. This family had even wanted to assassinate Anthony. They deserved worse than death.
Lewis‘ eyes fell on the child’s face, and an ominous feeling flashed in his heart. Sure enough, Hunk’s next words confirmed his guess.
“Ladies and gentlemen, the one that Ms. Davis is holding is Mr. Anthony Clara’s son. This is the paternity certificate” Hunk took out the previous DNA report and placed it before William first.
William looked at the nearly 100 percent DNA match on the report then back up at the child’s little face. He was so excited he was at a loss for words. He thought, There is always a way out. This really is my great–grandson. The Clara family is saved. He trembled and stretched out his hand

to Theodore. “Come to great–grandpa, little guy”
The little guy had been living in a remote valley basin since birth and had never seen so many people. He was exceedingly timid and curled up in Isabella’s arms, terrified. He refused to look up, let alone let others hold him.
Isabella didn’t like William at all. She would never have brought Theodore back if it weren’t for Anthony’s safety. So she didn’t force her son to be held, making up an excuse instead, “He’s afraid of strangers.”
Just like that, William’s mood had grown better. He was overjoyed and uncaring at the moment.
Lewis‘ family branch was completely dumbfounded. They could only wonder, What’s going on? Why does Anthony suddenly have a child? The company had already been in their pocket, but now it was slipping away because of the sudden arrival of this child
Lewis was unconvinced. Dad, why haven’t I heard that Anthony had a son? The timing of this boy’s appearance is incredibly coincidental. Don’t be duped into handing over the company to someone else.”
As the company she was supposed to inherit slipped away, Emily stopped pretending to be a good girl. She chimed in, saying, “Grandpa, we all know Anthony has been missing for over a year. We should be cautious about whether he’s truly a member of the Clara family”
“Can the DNA test be fake? William demanded angrily

“This report could be easily forged.” Emily said, trying to
Hunk did not argue upon hearing this and directly dialed the listed number on the report. The person at the other end of the line quickly found the report’s authenticity and said. “It was brought in for appraisal by a man named Hunk. We’re 100 percent responsible for every result that we produce

Hearing what he wanted to hear. Hunk hung up t
Emily’s expression was ugly, but she had nothing to say.
