I cooled down when I left the hospital.
Actually, this was how it used to be.
I was nice to him because I wanted
something.
Liam didn’t know that I’d been reborn.
It was normal for him to doubt me when my attitude changed.
I sighed.
I was going to talk to Liam.
I went to take a cab and saw a shop.
There was a black leather choker on the
mannequin.
It looked good.

Maybe I should buy it as a gift for Liam.
When I paid, the salesperson said, “Today, we’re giving away a free whip with every choker, do you want it in the bag?”
I froze.
I realized what it was.
I promised that I didn’t know when I bought it.
When I got to Liam’s office.
I was still red.
I was going to knock, but I heard Liam.
“Get thirty million ready and put it in George
Hawthorne’s account.”
George.
My dad.
Then someone spoke.
“Are you crazy? You’re going to invest in that project?”
It sounded familiar.
I thought it was Liam’s assistant.

He sounded serious.
“George is a gambler, everyone knows that. George Hawthorne is like a rat, everyone is afraid of him. If you’re marrying his daughter, you shouldn’t put money in his projects.”
