Chapter 2125 "No, I'm not!" Liam finally looked sober.

He shook his head as if he had cto his senses.

Standing, he said, "I'm not suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. Benjamin did so many crazy things to me! If I fell in love with his daughter, I'd look down on myself. At most, I lost something to helpcontrol Benjamin." Agitation filled Leia. She grabbed Liam and asked, "What do you mean? What did that old guy do to you? He must have done a lot of bad things! If not, you wouldn't have changed so much. You look desperate and dispirited. You weren't like this in the past!" In the past, Liam always bickered with Leia and drove her mad. But in short, he was a bright and optimistic man. He would make others happy the moment they met him. He was full of positivity unlike what he looked at that moment. He was like a man who had spent his tin darkness-his eyes were dull, and he seemed like one with a twisted mind.

"I don't want a gloomy brother. I want a bright brother. I want you to be as bright and enthusiastic as you were before!" Leia said seriously, cupping her brother's handsbut grim face.

"You're rude and crazy." Liam frowned and pulled Leia's hands away. He kept talking to Renee. 'Plus, you don't have to be this grateful toward Amber. There's another reason why you and Joanne could escape. It wasn't because Amber threatened to kill herself." Renee sat up straight and asked, "Another reason? Wasn't it because of Amber? Then, what was the reason?" "Yes, Benjamin dotes on Amber, but she couldn't affect him in this affair. Amber threatened to kill herself to make Benjamin letoff. Benjamin agreed not because he was afraid of her killing herself. Instead, he saw the worth in me... During this period, he gained a lot of things he wanted in me. This isn't a loss for him, so he was willing to compromise." Liam was smart. He had always known that his marriage with Amber was not a great favor from Amber. Instead, there was enough worth in him.

However, his current position allowed him no choice. Hence, he willingly hid his fierceness and put on a show with Benjamin. But after getting used to it, he got confused. When Amber stopped the show beforehand and wanted another actor, he was surprised and uneasy.

"Yes, I'm aware of that. Benjamin was willing to let you off because of other profits, but you also wanted something from him," Renee said.

She understood Liam's choice and didn't find the marriage a losing bargain for him. In short, adults only cared about profits instead of romances.

However, she was quite idealistic. She hoped she could find true love that could make Liam happy in that bargain. Then, it would be a win-win situation.

'But I'm still curious about how Joanne and I ran away so smoothly." Renee temporarily put Liam and Amber's affair aside because she wanted answers to her doubts. She once had sguesses but rejected them because she could not prove them. After Liam raised the doubt, however, she was eager for proof.

'Boss, you're so smart. You don't have to ask me. I'm sure you have an answer. Try and think who else could e suppress a tyrant like Benjamin under that kind of circumstance," Liam said meaningfully, wearing a fake smile.
