NovelEnglishUpon hearing her words, Ryan's eyes darkened. “You've called the wrong number. If you have a problem, call the police. I'm not
handling this.”
Call the police? She would not dare to call them!
After spending years with Liam, her hands were far from clean. If she reported this to the authorities, they would uncover
everything, and she would eventually end up behind bars.
“Ryan! Liam has gone mad! He killed your grandfather!” Selena screamed hoarsely.
Ryan froze, then spun around abruptly. His handsface was tense, and every muscle strained as his heart pounded against his
ribcage.
“What did you just say? Repeat that!”
“Last night... Liam asked to meet your grandfather at the old Hoffman Estate. After hearing about it, | followed them, intending to
settle the divorce issue with your grandfather face-to-face... But instead, | saw Liam and Lewis dragging body bags out of the villa.
| even heard Liam instruct Lewis to dispose of your grandfather and his secretary's bodies!”

they saw me! They must have seen my car and realized it was me. I've been hiding in a small motel since last night. I'm too
terrified to get out of here. Liam's men are definitely hunting for me. He'll killif | show up in front of him! If he can kill his
father, what am | to him?”
“The bodies... Did he say how he’s going to handle the bodies?” Ryan's mind was reeling, and he struggled to keep his voice
steady.
“He told Lewis to take them west. | don’t know anything else other than that!”
“Yasmin, stay here.”
Ryan quickly hung up. Without further explanation, he disappeared like a dark whirlwind into the crowd.
He could not hear Selena’s continued cries over the phone. He relied solely on his instincts as he pushed forward.
All he could see were the happy and smiley faces of the families around him.
It was like the entire world was perfect, except for the small part with him in it, which was collapsing into darkness.
Memories flashed through his mind like lightning.
He remembered his grandfather being the one who often took him out when his father was busy with work.
He remembered Millionaire, the Doberman his grandfather had given him.
He recalled how strict his parents were and how his grandfather had bought him his first cotton candy.
His grandfather was also the one who gave him his name.
—-"I've spent most of my life fighting and killing. My hands are stained with blood. I'm tired of it. | hope that the Hoffman family
can walk the right path in the future. | want my grandson to have a bright future.”
Without Logan, there would be no Ryan.
In that instant, he felt a sense of relief.
He even silently prayed that Selena was mistaken and that his grandfather was still at the Hoffman Estate, feeding his horses.
Hearing Ryan's long pause, Selena decided to play her final card.
“Aren’t you investigating who killed your father? I'll tell you who did it... You're right. It was Liam all along! If you can guarantee my
safety and helpleave the country, | can give you the evidence that Liam murdered your father! | have proof!”
Ryan closed his dark, cold eyes. The dual blows of Selena’s words twisted his insides in agony. A bitter taste rose in his throat.

After the fireworks show ended, Ralph and Carrie walked shoulder-to-shoulder with the large crowd, heading toward the exit.
Although Carrie had rejected his confession, Ralph was not one to be heartbroken. He chatted and laughed like nothing had
happened.
If they could not be lovers, he would be happy to just remain friends with her.
