Chapter 1282

• Simon's body shook as a chilling realization struck him. His eyes shot up to glance at Liza, who stood quietly in the corner. She had her head lowered, and a faint, cold smile played at the corners of her lips.
• The moment Liza felt the weight of someone’s gaze on her, she slowly lifted her eyes. Her expression was calm, completely composed, without a hint of fear. She gave Simon a light, almost mocking smile.
• In that moment, Simon’s heart seemed to stop. A rush of panic and dread flooded through him. His ears rang, but his mind was eerily clear. The sight of Liza’s calm, knowing gaze hit him like a blow—everything that had transpired today was part of a plan, orchestrated by Liza and the Hadid family.
