Liliana had been wearing a mask to ensure she was not recognized.


    As luck would have it – her father Lester Aprice, and her step-sister Lydia Aprice happened toe at the same time.


    Ironically, it was Lydia and not her biological father who had recognized her.


    Lydia berated her and called her names, but she only looked at her father. Lester, however, treated her like foul air.


    Infuriated by her indifference, Lydia rushed towards her, but she side-stepped, and Lydia fell by herself due to inertia.


    Lester finally reacted as he pped her in the face.


    That was what Jonathan saw as he exited the lift with his assistant.


    “What’s going on here?” He asked coldly. He did not seem to like the Aprice family either.


    Before Liliana or the receptionist could reply, Lester said, “This shameless shank pushed Lydia causing her to bleed so much. She kicked a fuss out of nowhere and hurt her.”


    The receptionist looked at him with her eyes wide open.


    Jonathan just frowned. Liliana smiled in self-mockery.


    Jonathan said, “Take your fights elsewhere, or I will have the guards throw everyone out. This is mypany, not an alley.”


    He left after saying that.


    Lydia feigned hurt and sniffled, “Jonathan!”


    He frowned and said, “I am busy. Get out of here.”, before striding forward without a backward nce.


    Lester grabbed Liliana and forced her to a hospital. She did not resist, not even when he told the doctor to draw 1000ml of blood from her body topensate Lydia.


    Liliana did not mind.


    This was thest time she had allowed him to hurt her. From that day onward, she would get rid of the Aprice surname. He did not deserve to be her father.


    However, she was worried about the child in her belly. Drawing that much blood would undoubtedly harm the fetus.


    She did not have to worry too much as Jonathan’s assistant, Vincent, came and stopped the transfusion.


    He said they had checked the footage and he apologized on behalf of Smith Group for the injustice she had suffered.


    He gave her a card and asked her to contact him if she ever needed any help. The Smith Group owed her one.N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    Liliana realized that Jonathan and Vincent had not recognized her. They were merely offering help andpensation to a stranger who was wronged on their territory.


    This time, Liliana kept the card and left P city after a few days.


    She woulde back when it was time to take back what was hers.


    On the ne, she met Henry which turned out to be a blessing since he was highly skilled and helped her a lot.


    Unknowingly, Jonathan had defended her, prevented any rumors about her, saved their kids from harm by stopping her blood transfusion, and donated blood to Li over the years.


    Liliana did not know what to think about all of that.


    Perhaps they were always fated to cross paths.
