Chapter 11: Stranger

Book:The flame of love Published:2024-5-1

Sylvia felt that this time she would be left alone for a while, but Liam, who looked at her with such disgust, would not have any more desire. Even being imprisoned is not comfortable at all.
These days, Sylvia feels that the atmosphere in the Dark Side mansion is very strange, not only quieter but also very busy. Viola doesn’t talk like before when bringing food in, she also thinks that Viola is angry at her because she ran away. Hans also threatened, who knows if he did it or just joking. Apart from Viola and Ryan who seemed decent and trustworthy, Sylvia dared not trust anyone else in the Dark Side.
When there was no one, Sylvia grabbed Viola and asked immediately.
“Sorry, Viola, I wasn’t good enough to get you yelled at by Ryan!”
Viola widened her eyes, looking at Sylvia in surprise.
“What are you saying Sylvia, Ryan didn’t scold me! Don’t worry too much. I heard Ryan say you helped your boss bandage his wound, right? She’s really good, too.”
“Yes, it’s just that I can’t bear to see him bleed to death! But I found the atmosphere in the villa very different today, what’s wrong? Everyone is very busy.”
“Sir Liam is getting married to Zimmer’s favorite daughter, Sharon, but he won’t be staying here but moving to a new home on Rose Boulevard. One of the most luxurious villas in the city! We are preparing to move some necessary furniture for him to his new house.”
“Really?” Sylvia couldn’t help but rejoice in her heart, was he about to let her go?
“How are you Sylvia, unwell?” Viola saw Sylvia’s bewildered expression and worriedly inquired.
“No, I’m fine! When will Liam get married?”
“Quickly, maybe a week. There’s still a lot to do, I’m leaving!”
After saying that, without waiting for Sylvia to answer, Viola left immediately.
The more Sylvia thought, the more strange she felt. Liam always pretends to be in love with his dead ex-girlfriend, and hates her because he thinks she is the one who killed Ariel. But why is he so quick to marry someone else? Men are all liars, she even felt sorry for him in the past because she lost both of her loved ones at once. Sylvia was angry, she felt like she was being tricked.
As for the person who was cursed with Liam, he didn’t know anything, he indifferently looked at the papers prepared for the wedding party that was about to take place. Unexpectedly, Olive did it so quickly, he heard Liam immediately agreed to negotiate with Martin Zimmer, and arbitrarily decided on the wedding date, without the need for an engagement. Sharon needless to say, she was more than happy to celebrate, and immediately went to order a wedding dress with expensive jewelry.
Liam glanced at the file Ryan handed him, annoyed.
“What is this? My hand hasn’t completely healed yet, but you and Ben keep coming to bother me all day!”
Ryan was sweating profusely, nervously looking at his master’s face.
“Sorry sir, we have no choice! Mr. Olive wants his and Lady Sharon’s wedding to take place quickly. Here is a list of famous restaurants and a list of wedding gifts for the guests. Someone will also come to measure your wedding dress today!”
“Too annoying! You just choose with Ben, tell me later, it doesn’t matter much, I don’t want to care. It’s just a formality!”
Ryan didn’t dare argue with Liam. He quickly nodded.
“Yes! I will quickly go to work right away.”
After saying that, Liam stood up, he wanted to go to work, not stay at home anymore.
“You also send someone to prepare the car, I will go to the company now! Remember to have someone watch her carefully, how far is the evidence I told you to submit to the court?” Liam grabbed his coat and wanted to get up, but Ryan stopped him.
“Master, your hand isn’t completely healed yet! Should rest more. The court said the camera footage we had was too blurry, that corner was hidden and dark. There is not enough evidence to convict.”
Liam frowned.
The car that committed the crime ran away, the camera was blurry, it was completely impossible to send Sylvia to prison, maybe keep her in the Darkside forever. Liam remembers the night before with Sylvia’s strong slap, he knows she is not a weak, weak person, despite the arrangement of others.
“Call more people to investigate! My hand is not disabled to the point that I can’t work, you just call Ben to help a little bit and it’s done.”
Ryan nodded.
“Yes.”
Sharon repeatedly wanted to visit Liam but was rejected by him, this time she directly called her father to tell. After all, she is also Liam’s fiancée, maybe she can’t visit her husband if she wants to. She also wanted to go with Liam to try on wedding dresses, but was also flatly refused.
“Dad, why doesn’t Liam want to see me time and time again, does he not want to marry me?” Sharon shouted, exasperated.
“What’s the matter, calm down! Married next week, you are his wife, need Liam’s permission, you just come to find it directly, isn’t it more romantic? Bring some more fruit and wine, but we don’t lack wine at home.”
“Yes, but I didn’t think of it! He’s still on the Darkside now, isn’t he?”
Martin took a puff of his cigarette.
“Yes, it is still there! I heard from Mr. Olive that he bought a villa for you and Liam as a wedding present in Rose Boulevard, but it doesn’t seem to have been decorated and furnished yet.”
Sharon’s eyes lit up.
“Really, I’ve always liked the house at Rose Boulevard, so quiet and spacious.”
“Come on, you go see Liam soon!”
Sharon nodded quickly.
“Yes, I’m leaving now.”
Sharon quickly changed clothes, put on makeup, put on the most expensive jewelry and perfume, and sent a driver to the Darkside.
Sylvia was sleeping on her bed when she heard a small noise outside, the door to the room suddenly opened. A messy head with black hair suddenly poked in, causing Sylvia to jump, she shouted.
“Ma… there are ghosts.”
“Be quiet! I’m not a ghost, I’m Tiara – a maid in the mansion.”
Only now did Sylvia clearly see the person who had just entered the room, a skinny girl with big eyes like owls, she had never seen her before!
