Betrayed by the Father Reborn in His Rival's Arms novel Chapter 76

Liliana already knew about the company going bankrupt.

She wasn't stupid; she knew full well that Lucius wouldn't let her keep wreaking havoc like this.

If she hadn't tried to steal Madeline's position, Madeline wouldn't have left. And if she hadn't forcefully demanded Madeline's patent, Madeline wouldn't have taken it back.

The issue at the summit wasn't just Victoria's fault—it was mostly Liliana's fault for eagerly showing off the product and boasting that she had built it herself.

Liliana represented the entire tech company. If it had solely been Victoria's mistake, the company could have easily just replaced the engineer.

The real reason every single partnership collapsed was that the head of the company had done something so incredibly stupid and sparked such public outrage. Who would dare work with someone like that? It was a ticking time bomb.

The company was truly destroyed by Liliana.

She was back to having absolutely nothing to her name, and she figured Lucius had to be blaming her.

Plus, she still needed Lucius to elevate her status. After thinking it over, she decided to use her body to compensate him.

As soon as Lucius walked in, despite the initial awkwardness, Liliana, dressed in her provocative lingerie, immediately approached him.

She stepped right up to Lucius.

Lucius cast a somber gaze down at her.

It was such a bizarre sight.

He had never expected this.

But Lucius knew exactly what was going on. Liliana was terrified he would blame her for bankrupting the company, so she had carefully orchestrated this whole routine to please him.

She was even using the most humiliating method a woman could, dropping to her knees in front of him.

Her surgically enhanced chest spilled out of the delicate fabric.

Any normal man would likely be filled with desire at the sight.

But as Lucius looked at her, his mind drifted to one person: Madeline.

Lucius found it strange himself. He clearly didn't love Madeline, but whenever he felt a surge of desire, his mind was completely flooded with her.

His first time had been with Madeline, too.

That night, Madeline had been wearing her wedding dress. He had walked quietly up behind her and lifted her veil.
