My Last Wedding Chance
Chapter 204 Everything Changed Me

"What exactly is your relationship with this patient ?"

"The less you know, the better for you"

"Noah, we work for humanity. Take an oath not to involve anything personal in the work. You should understand the consequences we take if we make a mistake. We were a Doctor, our job is to save people. You understand ?!"

"You don't have to advise me about the medical world much less about someone's life. You're not much different than me."

"I'm not advising you right now, but speaking as a friend. Don't let your actions make you regret for life. Whatever your purpose is for this woman, you should never involve anything bad in anyone. "

"preferably do what I've talked about, about how you're doing enough to sit as a spectator."

"Ok, I'll help you, but don't ever involve me with what's going on in front of him."

...****************...

The sound of water gurgling could be heard from behind the bathroom door, Harumi sitting on the edge of the bed. Silently, he looked out the window.

He waits.

Shortly after Liam came out of the bathroom, the man walked towards the dressing room. Wearing a towel that covers only part of his body.

His brownish hair looked half wet, as he stroked his face with a small towel. Throw it on the bed.

His attitude was cold, he was silent.

Passing Harumi who was sitting looking at him, but the man did not return his gaze at all.

He continued walking without a word with a flat expression even as cold as his attitude.

The atmosphere became very quiet and Harumi felt the intensity of the tension that she hated so much.

"Liam..." Harumi started to make a sound

Liam's attitude did not flinch, he still moved towards the dressing room, without turning his head.

"Until when do you act like this, to your mother. In your past." Harumi looked at Liam's back.

His steps stopped, he stood his back to Harumi.

Turned. Liam looked at her "She's not a woman who can be forgiven."

The hardness of his heart, revealing the other side of Liam that Harumi had just known.

"Every human being has the right to change, Anita's change of attitude is not to hurt you."

"What exactly did that woman say, that made you side with her ?" he walked closer to Harumi

The eyes of both of them clashed against each other.

Harumi shook her head "He offered nothing, it's just-" Harumi closed her lips again, she held back. He did not want to say what he knew from Anita.

Especially about Liam's real Father.

"Have you forgotten about the shooting ? Who do you think planned it ? Well. That was the plan."

The shooting that almost took his life at that time, suddenly made Harumi tremble in fear. His head feels dizzy.

The sound of gunfire swirled in his head. He still clearly remembers the incident. Harumi reduced her body with both hands covering both ears. His chest rose and fell irregularly, the air around him seemed to disappear, cold sweat soaked his forehead.

Liam grabs Harumi's shoulder, lifting her up. Help him stand. The man hugged her tightly.

He realized Harumi's attitude showed how the feeling of trauma had not completely disappeared.

Harumi has received so many painful events in her life, life that is always haunted by trauma is not easy for a woman.

"Return your breath." Liam rubbed his shoulders, calming the woman down.

Harumi started to calm down a little. It slowly stabilized.

"I'm sorry" he said with a breath still in his throat.

Liam hugged more tightly "All will be fine, I promise."

Harumi tried to control herself, regulating her breathing.

The hug was warm, as warm as the sun in spring even as Liam gently rubbed Harumi's head. It was enough to make the feeling of anxiety and fear turn into smoke that flew away from him.

"And one thing, I haven't told you about the purpose of my arrival in Bristol."

"What ?"

"I met both of your parents"

Harumi raised her face and opened her eyes wide "W-how could you possibly meet them ? What have you done ?"

Liam smirked casually "Of course, I want to ask for their blessing."

Unknowingly Harumi opened her lips, she was completely astonished. Remembering Liam who has a habit of always giving unexpected surprises.

But.this is beyond belief. What surprises are you planning ? Meet Harumi's parents ? Ask for blessings about their relationship ? Harumi was not stupid, she was still in a conscious state. His relationship with Liam could not be said to be an ordinary one.

Even everyone has blasphemed him, preaching with many bad things that become public opinion in a row. Distorting the two of them, especially Harumi's position.

"Why ?!!!! Why not talk to me about it first ?!! How is it possible to ask for their blessing, while the relationship we live now...."

Liam instantly covered Harumi's lips with a single finger "Can your attitude be calmer, or should I silence you continuously in the usual way." the man smiled mischievously

Harumi scowled and bit Liam's finger, the man was shocked.

"that's what happens if you always play me!!!" Harumi looked at Liam with raised eyebrows.

Liam laughed "I love your bite"

Harumi squinted her eyes with a slash. "I can break your fingers easily"

"We are Strong, My love. We will not be deceived. I repeatedly promised you, I will Fight For you."

"But-what about my mother's response ? Especially my dad ?"

"Are you curious ?" godfather

Harumi looked round her eyes.

The man touched Harumi's chin and lifted her up and kissed Harumi's lips.

"I got their blessing" she whispered right after she removed her lips from Harumi's lips

Harumi suddenly felt her face heat up "w-what ?!!"

"Of course it didn't go easy at first, and I understood. But, of course Liam Seymour won't just give up."

"You've met my mother and father. How are their conditions ? Are they okay ?"

Liam could feel the worry on Harumi's face "They miss you so much, and hope to see you soon."

Harumi smiled "My mother is a very warm woman, in contrast to my very conservative father. You must have trouble dealing with it."

Liam frowned "initially maybe but in the end he would soften slowly. They love you so much, you don't have to worry about them."

"I miss them too, Dad, Mom, Takeru and Ben."

The man pinched Harumi's cheek fondly "We'll soon meet them together."

A smile dyed her pretty face, "Liam.."

"hm"

"Please just this once, accept Anita's invitation to dinner together"

Liam breathed in "Are you still defending him ?"

"No, I don't mean it like that. It's just, I don't want to hurt anyone. I don't know what your mother's planning on me, I don't care. I just want us all to end up okay. I don't want to repay bad things with bad things."

Indeed, no one is born perfect, but for Harumi Women who perfect their lives.

Many bad things experienced, so many problems for the sake of problems that approached even hinder them.

But, like a tangled thread, Liam justifies one by one strands after another in their troubled lives.

Do not expect ease, Do not expect leniency for two people who are now fighting for a relationship.

A relationship that begins with betrayal, a relationship that begins with a lie,

Destroying the Sacred commitment of Marriage, in the name of Love.

The great consequences that both must accept, for choosing this decision.

It is all based on what both believe.

Although there will be many arrows ready to go towards them, from various directions.

They are ready to face it.

Even when Death and Destruction are in love.

...****************...

Liam agrees to have dinner together, but he chooses not to speak a word during the dinner.

Although Anita did not stop trying to take her Son's heart, Liam still acted cold.

Only Harumi diluted the atmosphere, inviting Anita to chat light things especially regarding work.

Until Liam finished eating, he put a fork and napkin on the table.

Just as she was about to stand up, Anita pulled her hand.

"Liam, can you sit for a second."

He turned his face away, then pulled his hand.

"Please, just for a second. I still want to see you."

"Nothing to talk about"

"Please let me explain, whatever you think. It's all wrong. That's not true at all."

Harumi looked at him "What do you mean ?"

"I understand how much you hate me, hate everything I do. But, about the shooting, about what happened to Harumi's father."

Harumi is surprised, when Anita mentions things related to her family.

His forehead frowned "What do you mean ? What happened to my father ?"

Liam turned to throw a furious look at Anita "Stop it"

Anita is surprised to see Harumi's reaction "Didn't you know it ?"

He swallowed his saliva "Tell me, what happened to my father ?"

Liam tried hard to cover up the things that Harumi's father was going through in Bristol. As with Nami, her mother did not want the incident that befell her husband to be known by Harumi.

Because it will further burden Harumi's life.

Harumi turned to Liam "Have you known about this before ? What really happened to my family ? Is that why you went to Bristol to see my parents ?!"

"Listen to me." she grabbed Harumi's hand, but the woman stood up

"What are you hiding from me, Liam ?!!! What else ?!!!" with a trembling voice Harumi held back her emotions

Anita just stared at the two "The one who attacked Harry Whiston is not at my command."

"STOP !!" snapped Liam pointed towards Anita, his two eyes were fiery, even he almost vaped it at Anita. But he held back because he did not want to further complicate things.

Anita was surprised, seeing Liam's terrible reaction. His gaze, his unusual body gesture. It seemed to remind him of someone.

Roberto. Liam is not Roberto's flesh.

But, while being enveloped in anger. The attitude of the two is indistinguishable.

Harumi further sharpened the look in her eyes, her breath hunting. "Tell the truth !!"

Liam finally chose to give up because he did not want to if he had to disagree again with Harumi and tell everything one by one without anything hidden.

Harumi was speechless, her expression sad as she listened to Liam's explanation. He could barely hold back his tears. Repeatedly he rubbed his eyes, holding himself back from appearing weak.

Come to a conclusion, though,

He wants to surrender.

Hurting his family, this is already out of bounds.

"Just this once, you're gonna have to listen to me. Listen to my true explanation. That what happened to you is not entirely true."

"Everything is proven"

"What proof, Liam ? Listen to mommy well. Regarding the assault on the Minimarket, it's not an order from me. It's true that I ordered the men to follow you, report all your activity information. But, the shooting WASN'T AT ALL AN ORDER FROM ME."

"You mean someone is trying to accuse ?!! Don't look for excuses !!!"

"I never ordered to kill. You can listen to this tape. Mom recorded it just in case. Because in the end it will be useful "

Anita pulled out her phone, and opened the voice recording. Between himself and one of the higher-ups of the Orion Gangster Group.

Liam listened the same way as Harumi.

In this conversation, it sounds obvious. Anita only asks that people from Orion just follow them, not threaten let alone hurt.

And on the second recording on a different day, from there, Anita was furious about the shooting.

"I never ordered the shooting. Even what happened to Harry Whiston in Bristol, it was someone's order. It is true, I was enveloped in anger because I could not approve of your relationship. I did plan that bad thing, but I immediately undo it. Because I realize this mother's act will make you hate me even more."

"Then I mean Mr. Yarrow lied ?" Liam highlighted full of inquires

Anita raised the corner of her lips "The man just wanted to avenge me, because I never accepted her existence. So he seemed to be making up stories that I was working together in business with him. Right ? I'm sure that's like his confession to you"

"The business you run is right, you can't lie."

"It was a business Roberto ran with him, using my name. When in fact I never run the business, Roberto just wants to reap a lot of profits. By using me, because he already knows how that guy feels about me."

Anita stood looking at Liam and there was firmness within the glare of her eyes

"You mean there's someone who set this all up ?!!"

"Of course, I thought about this. You think I'll just shut up after mom's good name is always smeared as a cruel Wicked Woman. Moreover, my own son hates me even more. I suspect one person. The mastermind of all these problems."

"Noah ?"

"No, I'm sure Noah was just a chess piece that the guy was playing. Because it's impossible for Noah to easily have all the company's information"

Liam frowned "You mean ... That guy ?"

Anita smiled "Liam you are a smart person, you must think the same thing as me. Who else knows all the secrets in our family, and of course who has access to them all."

"Lucianos"
