Chapter 172 - Brain Flooded
Chapter 172 of "No Trespassing! My Aloof Brother" opens presenting twists: Liam Spencer looked at the document Elijah Reed handed over, reached out to take it,... Keep following!
Liam Spencer looked at the document Elijah Reed handed over, reached out to take it, completely unaware that this document would be related to Maya Spencer.
After receiving the document, Liam quickly tore it open and took out the information from the bag. When he saw the contents, he was completely stunned.
The report in his hand was about Mayaâs miscarriage; during her two-day escape, she secretly had the child removed.
Liam held his breath, staring intently at the report, unable to breathe for a moment.
At this moment, it was as if he were having a nightmare, his mind foggy and unable to accept the reality before him, unable to accept that his child had already left him without his knowledge.
He couldnât describe his feelingsâwas it heartbreak or anger? He didnât know which feeling was stronger. All he felt was that the world was collapsing, and heâd never felt this miserable before.
In front of the desk, Elijah watched Liamâs face change suddenly and hurriedly asked with concern, "BOSS, whatâs wrong?"
"BOSS!"
"BOSS!"
He called out several times, but Liam still had no reaction; all he could think about was the child, the unformed child that had already left him.
His chest ached, making it hard to breathe, and his furious eyes were red, with tears pooling in them. He tightly gripped the miscarriage report, recalling Mayaâs pretense of compromise a few days ago, which ignited a fire of anger.
How could that woman privately remove their child? He hadnât agreed to it. Who gave her the right to secretly get an abortion?
Ultimately, he had underestimated Maya. Her ruthlessness was something he couldnât compare to.
"BOSS!" It was Elijahâs first time seeing Liam look like this, with red-rimmed eyes. So his voice involuntarily grew timid when calling out to him.
Elijahâs voice brought Liam back to reality. He swallowed hard, feeling an inexplicable clog in his throat, very uncomfortable.
Then he pretended to be calm and instructed Elijah, "Find out who sent the document immediately."
Now, all Liam wanted was to find Maya. Even if she hid at the ends of the earth, he wanted to drag her out and ask who gave her the courage to remove his child.
Elijah received the order and immediately left the office to begin searching for the courier.
In the office, Liam clutched the examination report with his right hand, closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, as if trying to hold back the tears. But still, a tear slid out from the corner of his eye. It was the first time Liam cried, for the child he hadnât had a chance to meet and for Mayaâs ruthlessness.
In the vast office, he said angrily, "Maya, youâd better never appear before me again in your life!"
Liam had never hated someone so much before. He hated himself for sleeping with her, hated his foolishness in considering marrying her, hated himself for trusting her blindly, thinking she was just protecting herself even though he knew how ruthless she was.
At this moment, he had no feelings for Maya other than hatred.
Meanwhile, Elijahâs search was a dead end. The courier came prepared, avoiding all surveillance, including that of the Owen Clan Group, which completely stalled Elijahâs progress. The courier and Maya seemed to have vanished into thin air from S City.
Until three years later, on a certain day!
That day, Liam, as usual, left the company at nine oâclock. In the quiet car, a sense of loneliness inexplicably washed over him, making him want to hear the sounds outside the car.
So while waiting at the traffic light, he rolled down the car window and casually looked to the right.
When he saw the nearby vehicle with its window also rolled down, his eyes widened as he stared directly at the driver inside.
Upon seeing that familiar face, his breath almost stopped, thinking it was an illusion.
So he blinked hard and looked over again at the adjacent vehicle. However, that familiar face remained there.
He saw her with both hands on the steering wheel, smiling as she talked with delight to the boy in the passenger seat.
Liam took a deep breath and leaned forward slightly, his eyes fixed on the boy in the passenger seat.
The boy looked cheerful and gentle, appearing to be about the same age as Maya. The two were chatting happily.
Once upon a time, he and Maya had this kind of relationship.
He observed the two without looking away. The Maya in his sight seemed different from three years ago, she seemed to be more cheerful now, always smiling at the man beside her.
This harmonious scene unexpectedly stirred up those resentments from the past in Liamâs heart. He involuntarily recalled how she had privately removed their child; even after all these years, he still hadnât forgiven her.
What infuriated him even more was that she was living well, even better than three years ago.
From her gaze, he couldnât see a trace of the pastâs shadow!
He swallowed hard, his left hand clenching the steering wheel, wishing he could crush it.
At the same time, he pondered the possible relationship between her and that man, why she laughed so happily with him?
As he considered the possibility of them being romantically involved, an inexplicable heartache surfaced...
Just then, the phone rang abruptly, its display revealing âGrandfatherâ.
Frowning, he reluctantly swiped to answer, weakly asking, "Grandfather, whatâs up?"
While answering the call, his gaze remained fixed on Maya.
But Maya hadnât noticed him at all; in his eyes, there was only the boy beside her.
On the other end of the line, his grandfather sighed deeply after hearing Liamâs voice, saying, "Maya has returned."
"Mm!" Liamâs calm response surprised the old man.
Back then, he had turned S City upside down in search of her, and never expected that he would let it go so soon. Old Master Spencer didnât know Maya was right beside Liam, thus he showed no surprise.
Listening to Liamâs indifferent tone, Old Master Spencer pondered for a moment before boldly stating his intentions.
He said, "I discussed it with your father, and we think you should give Maya a proper closure. You canât owe the young lady. Youâre 27 now, not a young age anymore, and itâs time for the Spencer Family to have an heir. If you think itâs okay, letâs arrange for a meeting in three days with both families to discuss your marriage. What do you think?"
Listening to his grandfatherâs suggestion, Liam curled his lips into a cold smile, without shifting his gaze from Maya, watching her start the vehicle and disappear from sight.
Staring at the departing vehicle, he coldly said, "Alright!"
Even though he knew the purpose of his grandfatherâs arrangement, he still nodded in agreement.
In the past two years, under Kinsley Spencerâs connections, the Spencer Familyâs cooperation with the Hanson Family increased, and their prospects improved greatly. The old man wanted to use him as a pawn to curry favor with the Hanson Clan Group, thus using Maya to bind him, ensuring a three-way collaboration with a promising future. How could he not guess?
However, he agreed to attend the meeting scheduled three days later, unrelated to work, solely driven by a desire to face Maya.
Three years apart, he wondered how she would confront him. His curiosity piqued.
And so, three days later, in a luxurious private room at Splendid Years Hotel, the Spencer and Hanson families were discussing Maya and Liamâs marriage.
