Chapter 18
The full house was shocked for a moment.
Did Owen actually trade a project from the Keith Group for a woman?
It should be noted that any project of The Kecith Group, when taken out casually, reaches heights that ordinary enterprises cannot reach, with a value of hundreds of billions.
Even though Maya knew that Liam had secretly loved her for many years, she suddenly felt uncertain in her heart. After all, it was normal to waver in the face of such a huge interest.
Not to mention, Liam has sacrificed so much to get to where he is
now.
Just when everyone thought Liam would agree, he nonchalantly touched the back of his neck.
“Give up, I couldn’t possibly give up on Maya.”
“And… who told you I was using her as a substitute? I had a secret crush on her for a whole ten years. I did have a beloved crush in my heart, but coincidentally, it was Maya herself.”
The crowd was shocked once again, curious about what kind of woman could make both of them compete for her at the same time.
Owen stood still, never expecting that Liam had secretly loved Maya for ten years, let alone that he could be so decisive.

Watching the two of them exchanging glances, he clenched his fists and felt a bitter taste in his throat.
“Maya, I really loved you, I couldn’t bear to lose you, please forgive me this time…”
Before he could finish speaking, Liam sneered.
“Don’t pat yourself on the back. If you truly loved Maya, you wouldn’t have waited until now to come.”
Owen’s emotions were already on the brink of losing control, and at this moment, they burst.
He was filled with unwillingness and anger, unable to suppress it any longer. He swung a punch towards him: “Liam, who do you think you are, interfering in the matter between me and Maya! Let me tell you, even without me, she would never be interested in someone like you!”
His actions carried a threatening momentum, but Liam not only did not dodge, but instead met this blow head-on.
The fist landed heavily on his face, causing him to turn his head to the side, with a trickle of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
With the fall of this punch, the guests at the scene screamed, and Maya’s face instantly changed color.
“Liam!”
She ran up to Liam and grabbed him, her face full of worry.
Liam leaned against her, his eyes red and his voice trembling: “Maya,

it hurts so much, he hit me so hard…”
Owen stood still, looking at his fist in confusion, his eyes filled with bewilderment. “Maya, I didn’t just…”
His speed was not fast just now, he only meant to scare Liam, and he could have easily avoided it.
From an angle that Maya didn’t see, Liam suddenly smiled at Owen, his smile filled with triumph and provocation.
Owen had never been so wronged before, and he was instantly filled with anger.
“Maya, he deliberately approached you! He even wants to deceive you with such trivial matters, you must not believe him!”
The only response he received was Maya’s cold gaze: “I don’t believe him. Do you still believe him? Owen, you are simply unreasonable.”
“I’ll say it one last time, I can’t go back with you.”
That tone of voice was one Owen had never felt disgust before.
Anger was about to break through reason, Owen’s eyes were bloodshot.
“Maya, you couldn’t go with him!”
Just as he finished speaking, footsteps could be heard around the house.
Maya frowned and asked, “Owen, what did you do?”
Owen looked crazy and paranoid, with a sinister gaze that oozed coldness.
“Maya, the outside had already been surrounded by the people I brought.”
“If you don’t come back with me today, no one here can leave.”
Maya’s blood froze in her veins at that moment, so angry that she could barely speak.
“Owen… Are you threatening me?”
Owen had already stopped caring about anything, with a sickly darkness clouding his pitch-black eyes.
“Maya, I’m sorry, I can’t be without you. I can do anything for you.”
“I will make it up to you when we get back.”
The noise outside grew louder and louder, sounding like hundreds of people had arrived.
Maya had a serious expression on her face, while everyone else in the room was extremely anxious, constantly pressuring her.
“Ms. Heald, don’t hesitate any longer, just agree to him quickly, how many people are eager to get close to Mr. Keith.”
“If you really can’t bear to leave Mr. Sullivan, just go back with him first, and then figure out a way to come back later! Who knows what Mr. Keith might do in his current state, you need to think about everyone!”
All eyes were on Maya, waiting for her answer.
Maya had to agree.
She bit her lower lip, about to agree, but Liam spoke first.
“Maya wouldn’t go back with you.”
“Owen, don’t forget that Chicago was whose territory. Did you really think you could take people away from me under my nose?”
