at into the car with Llarn.
After saying that, Ruth didn’t look at Garrett again and got into t
From the rearview mirror, Liam could clearly see the scene where Garrett completely broke down and collapsed on the ground, and for a moment, he couldn’t suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth.
But because he had to play the role of a well–behaved pretty boy in front of Ruth, he could only turn his head to the side and smirk.
When he finished laughing and turned around with an adjusted expression, he collided straight into a pair of eyes filled with suspicion.
“Why hide when you can openly laugh with schadenfreude?”
Oh no, it seems like I’ve been caught.
After realizing this,
this, the site on Liam’s face fi
fraze for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.
He grabbed Ruth’s arm and started acting coquettishly, just like before, trying to gently cover up what had just happened.
“I laughed when I heard Ruth say that we were in love with each other, there was no schadenfreude,”
His ability to change his face rapidly surprised Ruth.
She reached out her hand, lifted his chin, and forced him to meet her gaze.
“When we made the agreement initially, I remember telling you that I don’t like deceptive behavior with flowery words. Giving you another chance, it’s better for you to tell the truth, okay?
Although her tone was gentle, Liam could sense that her mood wasn’t particularly good at the moment.
So he put away the smile on his face and honestly told the truth.
“It was somewhat gloating.
Seeing the fish bite the hook, Ruth’s eyelashes trembled lightly as she asked the next question.
Do you know who he was?”
Upon hearing this question, Liam’s fingers involuntarily tightened by a fraction, and he did not immediately respond.
To be precise, he didn’t know how to answer.
After all, he had always been seen as a trouble–free and obedient figure in Ruth’s heart.
She said not to let him inquire about who her husband was, so he pretended not to know. She said she wanted him to stay well in the villa and not let anyone who shouldn’t know his identity find out, so he complied with her and hid like a treasure in a golden house.
In this not–so–pure emotion, he disguised and concealed his true self just to attract her attention, stay by her side, and wait for an opportunity.
A suitable, opportune moment to seize an opportunity.
In theory, now that his long–cherished wish has been fulfilled, Liam should have confessed everything
But he was also worried that she had been hurt too much in her previous relationship and wouldn’t be able to accept the fact that he had also deceived her. He was afraid that she would leave him after knowing the truth
So he kept this secret hidden and hidden.
Looking at the current situation, it seems that it can no longer be concealed.
Especially her particularly serious gaze, which she now looked at him with, made Liam feel extremely uncomfortable and his heart burned like fire.

In his mind, there were two little people constantly arguing. One wanted him to tell new lies to cover up the old ones, while the other wanted him to s
acting and reveal the truth.
He didn’t know whose advice to follow and was in a dilemma.
He finally regained some clarity when his constantly trembling hand,
d, due to excessive nervousness, was held by another warm and slender hand.
And a voice, filled with infinite power, fell upon my ears in the midst of tranquility.
“We were
were already engaged, and there were some secrets. Don’t you plan on sharing them with me, Liam?”
Ope sentence, and all the voices that troubled him disappeared completely.
