As soon as Liam left Loganâs mansion, his expression darkened.
His secretary followed closely behind him and asked in surprise, âMr. Liam, I overheard your
conversation with Mr. Ryan in the study. Why would you support Ms. Zoeâs marriage with Mr. Salvador
when you clearly knowâ¦â
âDo you really think that Justin will marry Zoe?â Liam asked with a
playful smirk.
âJustin has caused so much trouble for Ms. Thompson. Just recently, he almost sacrificed his life for
her. They have a lot of history, and itâs clear to anyone with common sense that my niece is
overestimating herself by trying to win over someone who has rejected her.â
He continued, âJustin will never marry her. Iâm backing Zoeâs marriage
to Justin because I know he wonât fall easily for her tactics. This is the only way we can create chaos
and put a strain on Ryan and Justinâs relationship. The more chaotic the situation, the bette
for us.â
âYouâre so wise!â Liamâs secretary exclaimed in admiration.
Liamâs eyes flashed with a cunning glint. âSince ancient times, t
best way to turn brothers against each other is through women. Eve
legendary figures like Mark Antony and Julius Caesar fell victim to it Brotherhood? What a joke!â
As he was about to descend the stairs, he suddenly remembered something and asked in a hushed
tone, âBy the way, what was the
Chap 758
name of the Salvador girl that Zoe mentioned earlier? The one Ryan is
dating?â
âCarrie Salvador!â
âYes. Keep an eye on her. When the time comes, she could prove to be a valuable card for us to play.â
âRyan! Let go of me! It hurts!â Zoe screamed in pain.
Ryanâs face was as cold as ice, and his eyes were raging with anger.
He dragged Zoe by her arm to an empty room. Once inside, Ryan swung his arm forcefully, throwing
Zoe to the floor.
âAh!â Zoe fell awkwardly and cried out in pain. She felt the pain from the impact and had a noticeable
bruise forming on her arm.
âZoe, tell me the truth. What happened at the hotel the other day?!â Ryan suppressed his anger with all
his might. If it were someone else, he might have snapped her neck.
âI donât know what youâre talking about!â Zoe remained stubborn, despite the pain she felt.
âSomeone must have helped you plan this. With your brains, you couldnât have done it all alone!â Ryan
leaned in closer and stared int her red eyes. âTell me! Who set you up? Who planned all this behind
the scenes?!â
Zoeâs heart raced, and cold sweat dripped down her face. How could
she possibly tell Ryan? Besides, she was only following someone
elseâs instructions. She didnât even know who that person was!
She gritted her teeth and lied, âNobody helped me. It was all my idea!â
âZoe! Why are you still lying to me?â Ryan shouted, his voice filled
with anger.
Zoe smirked mockingly, provoking him further. âWhatâs wrong? Are
you not satisfied? Are you going to hit me? Or are you going to kill
me?â
