Chapter 153 - Like Attracts Like

"Grandpa, something’s wrong! Liam and Maya’s relationship has been exposed, and the news about Maya’s pregnancy has been leaked too."

Old Master Spencer listened to Kinsley’s report, quickly took his phone, and found that among the top 10 trending news, 8 were about Liam and Maya, or about the Owen Clan Group and the Spencer Clan Group.

Old Master Spencer opened the news and saw that major media and marketing accounts had exposed a large number of private photos of the two, even Maya’s pregnancy test report was leaked.

The old man looked at the news and then at the photos on the coffee table, clearly the two sets of photos came from the same source, so he angrily glared at Aunt Hannah. Because regardless of whether it was the photos or the pregnancy report, only she had them.

Aunt Hannah met Old Master Spencer’s angry look and quickly explained, "Dad, it wasn’t me! It wasn’t me! I also just received the photos yesterday."

"Grandpa, I’ll go handle this matter first, if it escalates, it won’t be good for both companies, and it’s a crucial time for the European partnership project." Jane Spencer spoke as she rushed out, after which Kinsley was sent out by Old Master Spencer as well.

The crowd dispersed, Maya’s vision blackened, and with a swoosh, she fainted to the ground, unconscious.

Seeing this, Liam picked her up and headed to the hospital without saying a word.

When Maya woke up, it was already evening. She slowly opened her eyes, her mind still hazy, the events of the morning vivid in her memory: her relationship with Liam had been exposed, she wasn’t the Spencer family’s child, and everyone knew her reasons for coming to the Spencers.

Oh right! And her ’incestuous’ relationship with Liam was exposed.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm down, but her heartbeat was still fast, her brain extremely tense, unable to think.

Then, she felt a large warm hand rubbing her head, which she found repulsive. So she slowly turned her head away, refusing to look at him, remembering the child in her belly, which made her resentful.

Beside her, the man saw her resistance towards him and raised his large hand to pinch her chin, straightening her head, saying earnestly, "That day in the parking lot, I didn’t park, I was at fault, the contract and project have already been restored."

"Have some shame, will you?" Maya snapped at the man’s explanation, abruptly pushing his hand away and angrily retorting.

Thinking, was this the only thing he did wrong? Did he ever respect her wish not to have a child? He knew all the truth but didn’t tell her, did he respect her? Knowing she was in trouble, he still deliberately made things difficult for her, what did he take her for?

Now, who was he putting on this act for? Did he want her to give birth to the child?

Maya was very clear about her decision. Regardless of whether she and Liam had a blood relationship, even if this child was allowed, was healthy, she had no intention of giving birth to it. Its arrival was never in her plan, and she wouldn’t want it.

More importantly, she was now a free person, without any leverage in the hands of the Spencers, she could do whatever she wanted, no one could do anything to her.

Thus, she suddenly laughed coldly, looked at Liam, and asked, "Liam, my uncle has already taken my mom back, what do you think you can still threaten me with?"

Liam looked at the girl’s defiance, furrowed his brows, and asked, "Is there really nothing besides threats?"

"Heh! So tell me, what else?" Of course there was more, she still had an abundance of anger and resentment!

Listening to the girl’s questioning, Liam took a deep breath, swallowed, wanting to speak but found it difficult.

"Maya, are you feeling better?" As the atmosphere grew awkward, Jane Spencer came in with fruits and supplements.

Maya’s face showed no emotion, as if she were a stranger to someone she didn’t know.

Jane Spencer surveyed the room’s atmosphere, looking at their tense expressions, she didn’t need to ask, knowing they weren’t happy. She gave Liam a look, signaling him to give her a seat at Maya’s bedside, holding her hand and asking, "Maya, is there any discomfort?"

"No!" Maya replied coldly, her attitude towards Jane Spencer was vastly different.

"You’re pregnant now, you’ve got to think positively about everything. If you need anything, just tell me, and I’ll bring it to you."

Listening to Jane Spencer’s words, Maya found it laughable, now everyone was treating her well, what is this supposed to mean, using motherhood as leverage? Sorry, she couldn’t enjoy such a blessing.

Therefore, she coldly said, "I need peace!"

Jane Spencer sat at the bedside, embarrassed. She turned her head to Liam and asked.

"What now? The news is spreading like wildfire through the city, the headlines can’t be suppressed. Grandpa is already questioning Aunt Hannah, asking what her intentions are, with such a big matter, dare to spread it outside."

Listening to Jane Spencer, Liam glanced at Maya indifferently, looking at her cold, unyielding demeanor, he had a momentary urge to strangle her, why was she like this, not listening to a word?

Indeed, he was no different, not listening to any reasoning. If he had heeded her half a warning then, things wouldn’t have developed to this extent.

Afterward, he looked at his sister and said, "The news doesn’t need to be suppressed, it will pass in a few days."

"The stocks of Owen Clan and Spencer Clan are already falling." Jane Spencer was anxious.

In bed, Maya heard the siblings talk about the company’s matters and bore them no patience, pulling up the blanket to cover her head, indicating that their conversation was disturbing her.

Beside her, Jane Spencer watched the girl’s action, and rolled her eyes at her disdainfully, thinking, what kind of conduct do these people have, truly birds of a feather.

If she didn’t want to hear discussions about the company, then talking about how to solve personal, emotional issues.

So she asked again, "What are your plans for Maya and the child? This is also the issue Grandpa is most concerned about now."

Regarding the child in Maya’s belly, of course, everyone was concerned, it bore the Spencer blood, it couldn’t be handled casually.

"Don’t worry, let’s see." Liam answered carelessly.

Under the covers, hearing Liam’s "let’s see", Maya’s fury deepened, throwing off the blanket, she coldly sneered and asked, "Liam, surely you don’t really think the child is yours, do you? Henry also said the child is his. Honestly, I can’t even figure out whose the child is."

"Maya, are you full of nonsense?" Liam looked at the girl’s bravado, burning with anger. If it weren’t for her pregnancy, he certainly wouldn’t let her off easily.

"What, you want to be like your dad and wear a green hat, huh? If you’re willing, I don’t mind at all, after all, it’s not the first time your Spencer family has been cuckolded." Maya spat one accusation after another, as if she really had no connection to the Spencer family.
