The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Under Justin's covert operations, the Hoffman Group's subordinate turned himself in, confessed on the spot, and provided all the
crime details, which matched the situation completely. The victim's father still wanted to pursue further, but with such solid
evidence, the police closed the case. With their limited ability, they could only accept it.
Liam Hoffman had a keen sense and understood the entire incident.
When he learned that the person taken hostage was Carrie, he knew the incident definitely had something to do with Ryan.
The culprit literally had the word "Ryan" branded on his face.
"What? That man who turned himself in had his background cleaned?!" Liam's eyes widened.
"Yes, it was cleaned thoroughly. That subordinate had nothing to do with the Hoffman Group anymore, and even the police
couldn't find anything." His secretary reported, drenched in sweat. "Ryan, that fucking bastard... He's getting more and more
cunning!"
Liam took a drag of his cigar, only to suddenly choke and almost make himself pass out.
"It could also be Mr. Salvador's work. Mr. Salvador was always meticulous, and he has close ties to Ryan. Won't he help Ryan
out?"
"Damn it!"
Liam slammed his palm on the table fiercely. "I thought we could use this incident to cut off Ryan's future of becoming the CEO,
but we missed this opportunity! Am I supposed to just watch that bastard ride over my head? Then what's the point of me getting
rid of his father?!"
"Shhh! Keep your voice down!" The secretary's face paled.
"Tsk, what are you afraid of? So many years have passed. The plane crash left no evidence."
A cruel light flashed across Liam's eyes. "Do you think Ryan doesn't suspect me? He's been suspicious since long ago, but what
can he do? I love watching how powerless he is against me, despite how much he hates me. Let him suffer forever!"
At this moment, his phone rang.

Seeing that it was Zoe, Liam dismissed his secretary and took the call with a dark expression. "Zoe, do you still remember your
uncle?"
"Uncle, you're being funny. I could forget anyone except you!" Zoe's sweet voice came through.
"Ha, you have a way with words." Liam gritted his teeth. "If so, why aren't you doing anything? It seems your heart is still swaying
toward your brother. If he becomes president, you and your mother will benefit too, right?"
"Uncle Liam, forgive me for being blunt."
Zoe smiled and said, "Actually, you don't have any chance of winning in this fight for the CEO's position. Grandpa never thought
of letting you be his successor in the first place. You should know this better than I do, right? You wanted me to help you, but
how should I help you when you have such a bad foundation? If I had the ability, I would go for it myself."
Liam felt humiliated by the girl, and his face turned beet red. "But didn't you say you have an idea to let Ryan suffer?"
"Be patient. It's happening soon."
Zoe's tone turned dark. "Tonight, I'll meet Grandpa. Ryan wants to be CEO and marry his sweetheart, right? But there's no such
thing as having the best of both worlds!"
Night fell at the Hoffman residence.
Logan summoned Ryan and Liam, calling a meeting between the three of them in his study.
After discussing the company and project affairs, Ryan got up and placed an invitation in front of Logan.
"This is..."
"Me and Carrie's engagement invitation."
Ryan's eyes sparkled with anticipation, saying seriously, "I wanted to give Carrie the wedding of the century, but it needs a
professional team and time to plan. So before that, I plan to hold an engagement ceremony to register our marriage. It's safer
and shows the Hoffman Group's respect for the Salvador family. Everything will be done properly."
As he spoke, he took a document from a leather bag and handed it to Logan with both hands. "This is the list of gifts I prepared
for Carrie. Please take a look." Logan opened the document. Liam could not help stretching his neck to look at it too.

Good heavens! The list was so full of words that it made their heads spin.
Logan took out his reading glasses and put them on, reading them line by line. His brows furrowed tighter, and his face sank.
Was this brat trying to empty his account to please that girl?!
"Tsk, Ryan is genuinely offering his heart and soul for Ms. Carrie." Liam said sarcastically, "Even Chairman Thompson's four
wives combined might not receive as much as your gift list."
"You're exaggerating, Uncle Liam. It's a bit much, but not to that extent."
Ryan sneered, "Besides, I've saved up for all these over the years. Don't worry. I won't use any of the family's money."
Liam's expression stiffened. He thought, 'Fuck, is this bastard showing off his wealth to me?!'
"It's just an engagement gift. Do you need to be so extravagant?" Logan sounded a little displeased.
"Yes. Carrie is worth it." Ryan said without hesitation, "I still think I am underprepared due to time constraints. But it's alright. I'll
give her more in the future."
Logan's frustration was stuck in his throat, his voice low. "Fine. It's your wedding; you handle it."
"Thank you for your blessing, Grandpa." Ryan's face lit up, and he bowed deeply.
"Ryan, your big day with Ms. Carrie is right around the corner. Aren't you going to send me an invite? I'll prepare a grand gift for
you." Liam put on a fake smile. "There's no need. I don't need your bit of money. You can just send your wishes."
Liam felt awkward and speechless.
"Grandpa, if there's nothing else, I'll excuse myself first."
Ryan and Liam came out of the study one after another.
Upon hearing the sound of high heels clicking on the floor, Ryan looked up, and his gaze darkened.
Right opposite him, Zoe held a tray as she gracefully walked over.
