Chapter 858
Compared to Liam's cusses about propriety, Thomas was in a totally different state of mind.
His heart felt constricted, and he found it difficult to breathe. Yet, he couldn't help but feel that Hanson did that on
purpose for him to watch.
Even if he knew the truth, he was still heavily affected.
Then, he chugged down a glass of beer, hoping it could sober him up from the pain. However, it was too bitter, and
he only felt the sadness within his heart grow heavy.
Liam regarded him curiously and teased, "Why are you suddenly drinking?"
Even though he said that light-heartedly, he had numerous suspicions running in his mind.
He observed Thomas' expression at such a lovey-dovey scene and was overwhelmed with a terrible suspicion.
"What? I just had a bite of something spicy and could not take it. That's why I drank." Thomas didn't expect Liam to

feelings.
He also hoped that Hanson and Vania would not join in on the questioning.
Luckily, Liam only raised a brow at his weak excuse and didn't expose him.
He even broke the silence and cheered, "Come on! Let's have a toast. Don't drink by yourself."
He had been attentive throughout the meal, so he knew Thomas had not eaten anything spicy. All he had were non-
spicy dishes.
Vania was still embarrassed and thought they were poking fun at her from their conversation. So she didn't
overthink it.
Bryan's surprised voice came from behind her out of the blue. "Oh, My God. What did I just see? That was too
much!"
His arrival immediately relieved the tense situation.
It seemed that Bryan just so happened to arrive and saw Hanson kissing Vania. He stood by the door and enjoyed
the show before coming in.
The teasing smirk on his face widened when he neared their table.
It was the same for Jennifer. She had constantly been poked fun at by Vania, and now she finally had the chance to
take her revenge. Therefore, she was ecstatic and merciless as she returned the favor. "Sugar Mama, what do you
think of today's barbecue? Did you feel the taste of love?"
She purposely touched her lips when she asked, hinting that she was referring to their kiss and not the actual
barbecue.
Vania's face went beet red, and she said sternly, "Do you want me to stop your activities?"
She could only get even with Jennifer through work.
This was all because of Hanson. He was the source of her embarrassment at the moment.
"You can't abuse your power to bully her, Sister-in-law," Bryan was very protective of Jennifer and immediately

"Oh, is that so?" Vania chuckled menacingly. "Are you both revolting against me?"
She wore her lady-boss persona. "Don't forget that the company you were signed to is a subsidiary of Galaxy
Corporation. I can always replace you with other celebrities."
That was true. Bryan entered the entertainment industry by signing under one of Vania's companies.
He was the only person signed under that company. So, they had given him all the best resources and created a
smooth sailing path in this industry fraught with challenges.
"You're no fun, Vania. Let's just eat."
Bryan gave up on winning the argument. He knew a losing fight when he saw one, so he might as well not push it
further since she had the upper hand.
He poured a glass of fruit juice for Vania and flattered her, "You must be thirsty after talking for so long. Come.
Have a drink."
"Ha. You even know how to butter up to me now." She muttered as she took a sip of the fruit juice and acted as if
nothing had happened. She just wanted everyone to forget what had happened earlier so she could avoid any
further teasing.
