Regret Came Too Late

Liam's lips were already cracked from crying, and he hadn't had a single sip of water until now.

Grace was too rough in the way she tried to feed him water, which caused Liam to choke badly, coughing so hard that his nose started to run.

But she didn't even notice. After setting the cup down, she asked coldly, "Was it Alice?"

Liam's eyelashes trembled. He turned his head away and said nothing.

Grace let out a cold laugh.

"The psychiatric hospital already informed me. Alice is no longer there. Don't tell me you even rented a place for her to live? You've been out early and back late. Were you taking time to go see her?"

Liam opened his mouth slightly, looked down, and then finally answered in a hoarse voice, "Alice did give me a lot of things to eat."

It happened every time he visited, so he wasn't exactly sure what it was that got him addicted.

Grace yanked him up by the collar, glaring down at him from above.

"Liam, use your brain for once! She's trying to destroy you and the entire company! If you still want to stand on her side, then fine, I'll cut ties with you completely. Don't ever call me your sister again! And if you don't quit this crap, don't bother ever contacting me again in the future!"
