Upon seeing Nancy's state before her death, Liana was haunted by nightmares for several consecutive months...
She couldn't understand how a mother could be so cruel to her own son.
Anything that he cared about, either a person or an object, she would ruthlessly destroy by any means necessary!
When she was posing as Mr. Laurence's woman, she was also afraid of being tortured to death like Nancy.
But she gathered her courage and proceeded, believing she should have disappeared from this world when Tyler had her raped.
It was Bernard who reached out to her, telling her to take revenge slowly and assuredly. It was then she found the courage to live. Under his sponsorship, she travelled abroad and returned equipped with medical knowledge.
He gave her the power to start anew, and naturally, she faithfully dedicated herself to working for him. But she hadn't anticipated...
She was originally protecting Ms. Shultz to keep her existence hidden, but it ended up getting her implicated.
Liana cast her dull eyes downward, suppressing her intense guilt. She then looked up at Bernard, "Mr. Laurence, go ahead!"
She was ready to risk her life and had nothing to fear.
Bernard glanced at her, his cold gaze moving back to the woman. He said, "She is not the woman I care about, you cannot threaten me with her."
Upon hearing his words, the woman playing with the belt paused, and when she looked up at him, she suddenly began to smirk.
When she laughed, the skin that had been burned on her face appeared both creepy and ugly, akin to a hellish demon.
"Just a scapegoat, of course you don't care...”The woman sneered from her wheelchair.
Her mocking and scornful words, each like a stab, pierced Bernard's heart, causing his hand holding the gun to tighten. He shouted, "If you say one more word, I'll kill him!"
The man with the gun pointed at his forehead, seeing Bernard suddenly getting agitated, turned pale, fearing that any provocation would result in a fatal gunshot.
"Sis..." He called out to the woman, who then put away her smile and coldly looked at Bernard. She smirked, "What? The person you care about is dead and you think you can resist me now since you have nothing to lose? Don't forget, that woman you care about also has a best friend and a first love..."
Upon hearing this, Bernard raised his bloodshot eyes, glaring fiercely at the woman in the wheelchair.
He said, "If you dare hurt her friends, I will never let you off!"
"You can try to see if I dare." The woman fearlessly raised her chin, looking up at him, silently challenging him.
