Chapter 298

“Alright… thank you,” Liliane began to say, but the other party had already hung up before she could finish. When she tried calling again, she discovered that the number was no longer in service.

Intrigued, Liliane bit her finger with excitement, her face displaying a wicked expression as she wondered about the identity of this mysterious person. If they possessed such remarkable abilities, could they also fulfill her desires? She yearned to bring Bradley to justice, to make him pay for all the humiliation he had inflicted upon her.

Her curiosity about this enigmatic individual grew intense. She eagerly desired to meet this meticulous and mysterious person because they seemed to be kindred spirits.

“Liliane.”

Knocks on the door interrupted her thoughts, followed by a familiar voice.

Liliane gazed at the man standing before her, dressed like an idol celebrity, and it took her a moment to recognize him. She exclaimed, “You’re Liam?”

“Yes, Liliane,” Liam Mendenhall confirmed as he removed his glasses. His current appearance was completely different from before.

“You… You… You had plastic surgery?” Liliane questioned in surprise.

Liam nodded gently and pointed to his nose, eyes, and various other areas where he had undergone surgery. “Here, here, and here. I’ve had all of these done.”

Liliane reached out and touched Liam’s face, which was highly sought after by countless fans, expressing genuine concern as she asked, “Did it hurt?”

“Liliane…” Liam affectionately held her hand, and tears of gratitude welled up in his eyes. ” You’re the first person to ask me if it hurt.”

“You’re so afraid of pain, yet you’ve undergone so many surgeries. It must’ve been very painful.”

Liam held Liliane’s hand and sat with her on the small sofa in the hospital room, sharing his difficult past as a trainee overseas.

“Liliane, six years ago, you supported my music dream and provided me with the funds to go abroad as a trainee. I believed that with their expertise in creating celebrities, I would soon achieve breakthrough success as a star. However, the reality was that there were numerous talent agencies and an overwhelming number of trainees vying for fame.

“I lacked any exceptional skills or outstanding talent. Initially, I worked as a backup dancer for popular groups, and gradually, some talent agencies noticed me and began training me. They said I had to undergo plastic surgery in collaboration with them if I wanted to become famous. The plastic surgery industry there was well-developed. Look at my face now. Isn’t it exquisite?

Liliane picked up an apple and handed it to Liam, showing her concern as she asked, “No wonder I couldn’t find any news about you online before.”

“Liliane, I’m popular now, and the talent agency is fully supporting me. They also want me to return to the country and establish my career in the domestic market,” Liam earnestly invited. “Liliane, I need a local manager. Do you remember what you said back then?”

Liliane laughed self-deprecatingly. “Liam, I’m a patient now. I can’t do much.”

“It’s alright, you can hold the title, and someone else can handle the rest,” Liam reassured her seriously. “Liliane, you said back then that you wanted to stand at the peak with me and witness the most beautiful scenery.”

“Liam, I have a tarnished reputation now. I’m essentially the public enemy. If I get close to you, I’ll only drag you down. Your career is flourishing, and I can’t become a stain in your life.”

Liam shook his head and expressed his emotions, “Liliane, you’re not a stain in my life. You’re my guiding star, the one who truly sees me, and…

“My dream!”
