Kris continued smiling. "Miss Lloyd, I know why you're competing for these plots of medicinal fields! Isn't it because the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation is looking for partners in South City?"His gaze, full of aggression, continually scanned Serena's exquisite figure. "I've heard that you've stepped down as the CEO of the Lloyd Group. You're trying to use this opportunity to reclaim your position as CEO, are you? As long as you agree to spend some time with me, I'll approve this plot for you immediately!"As he spoke, Kris's obese body inched closer to Serena, whose expression had already turned icy."Mister Chansey, I advise you to calm down. Stop doing such disgusting things!"Even though she desperately needed the medicinal fields to renegotiate with the project team, that did not mean she would consider the proposal of the fat pig in front of her!Kris's eyes suddenly flashed with anger. "Disgusting? I showed you utmost respect when you were the CEO of the Lloyd Group. N
Kris's status was not the same as Nathaniel's. If something really bad happened to Kris, things would get very complicated.Even though Serena also loathed Kris, she could not help but complain a little. "You were a bit too harsh!"Liam looked at Kris lying on the ground and shook his head. "Too harsh? I've already held back a lot."Kris's head would have already exploded if Liam had gone all out.Kris, lying on the ground, suddenly opened his mouth and spat out several bloody teeth. Staring at the teeth on the ground, Kris was momentarily stunned.The next moment, he snapped back to reality.Kris lifted his head abruptly, a ferocious look crossing his chubby face. "You dare to hit me?! Do you know who I am? How dare you hit me?"Upon hearing this, Liam shook his head lightly and looked at Kris coldly. "I don't know who you are, but I do know that if you dare touch Serena again, I'll kill you!"The instant Kris heard Liam's words, his body trembled violently.For some reason,
However, before Serena could finish her sentence, Hailey turned around and saw Liam standing behind her.Hailey's eyebrows shot up instantly, and her voice became sharp and piercing. "You're still hanging around with this worthless ex-convict? I knew it! I knew Serena couldn't possibly cause trouble at the South City Bank!"Hailey turned to Liam and gritted her teeth. "As expected, it's you! Every single misfortune our Lloyd family has faced is because of you!"A look of urgency flashed across Serena's face. She quickly tried to explain to Liam. "Mom, it's not his fault! Liam saved me—""Shut up! Do you think this is the time to defend him?" Hailey cut Serena off abruptly, pointing at Kris, who was lying on the ground, "Do you think I'm deaf? Mister Chansey just said it was Liam who hit him!""Enough!"Suddenly, Kris's voice rang out. He assessed the situation coldly and said, "There's no need to argue about who's at fault. None of you are getting away!"Upon hearing Kris's wo
However, after hearing Alex's words, Kris shook his head coldly."If it were any other matter, I might have spared you the embarrassment, Mister Irving. For this matter today, it's not just you. Even if your father comes, I won't hold back! They dared to assault me in the South City Bank!"He looked up at Serena and Liam, his voice icy. "I've never encountered such a thing! It doesn't matter who struck first. Anyone involved in this incident won't be let off!"Alex, feeling his dignity tarnished, suddenly froze and frowned. "Mister Chansey, in front of so many people, aren't you worried about the negative impact if this gets out?""Of course, I won't have the security do anything," Kris sneered, understanding the implication in Alex's words. But at this moment, Kris appeared particularly unrestrained. His chubby face was filled with malice as he added, "I'm just ensuring these scum who dared to act violently in the bank don't escape! As for how to deal with them, you'll know soon
Casey stepped up beside Kris, his square face radiating authority. "What's going on here?"Kris lifted his head and spoke sternly, "Mister Upton, someone tried to rob our bank! When their plan was exposed, they attempted to flee. I was injured while trying to stop them, but we've already apprehended the culprits!"Kris smirked as he continued, "I have strong suspicions that these people from the Lloyd Group are accomplices!"Right from the start, Kris pinned a serious crime on Liam and even implicated the Lloyd family.Serena's eyes widened in shock at the accusation. She finally understood the real reason why Kris had asked them to wait.If they were indeed linked to the bank robbery, the consequences would be dire, not just for them but for the Lloyd Group's stock price, which would plummet instantly. The repercussions would be unimaginable.Casey’s eyes flashed with anger upon hearing Kris. He pointed at Hailey and the others and ordered, "Is that so? Take them away!"Hailey'
"Are we not taking them back to the police station?"Casey froze for a moment. He could not believe what he was hearing.How could Alex say such a thing? Was he supposed to show Alex some respect? Who did Alex think he was?Did Alex think he could speak so casually just because they had a meal together once?"Who do you think you are?" Casey scoffed, lifting his head.Suddenly, his pupils contracted as he froze in place.When he entered the bank earlier, Casey’s attention had been focused on Kris. Later, Alex had caught his attention.As a result, he did not closely observe the situation inside the bank. However, when he looked up, he saw an incredibly familiar figure. Although he had only seen him in surveillance footage, he could never forget that face. The reason the South City Police Station was once surrounded by the military, nearly leading to a huge disaster, was because of the man standing in front of him.Staring at Liam, Casey trembled uncontrollably. "Grandmaster…"
"Mister Upton, it's fine." Although Alex could not understand it, he could clearly see through Casey's attitude.Alex continued speaking pridefully. "After all, Mister Chansey was injured quite severely. It's understandable that he would be upset..."However, while Alex kept talking, Casey's mind was blank. He did not hear a single word. The moment he saw Kris pointing at Liam, Casey wanted to kill Kris. A mere branch manager of South City Bank dared to point at the legendary Grandmaster Burrey! Was he courting death?After the military and Liam left the police station that day, Casey tried to look into Liam's identity, but his information was classified. Casey did not know who Liam really was up until that moment. However, one thing was abundantly clear to him.They could not afford to offend Liam.While Casey was trembling with fear, Hailey stood behind him, her eyes wide open.They knew the Irving family's power was formidable, but they had not expected Alex to wield such
Alex's face showed a hint of confusion as he looked at Casey. He thought Casey was under the weather."Mister Upton, are you feeling unwell? If you're tired, you should go back and rest. I can handle the remaining matters."Alex smiled as he added, "It was troublesome for you to come all this way!"Casey finally reacted after hearing Alex's words. He hesitated momentarily before lifting his head to glance at Liam."If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."Liam had remained unresponsive, so naturally, Casey did not dare to make any rash moves."Dismiss!" Casey waved to the nearby officers and turned to leave.Seeing Casey preparing to depart, Hailey and Ronald breathed a sigh of relief. However, Liam's voice suddenly rang out. "Are you just going to leave like that?"Upon hearing this, Casey's body trembled, and he abruptly stopped as he turned back to look at Liam."What… What did you say?" Liam frowned as he pointed at Kris on the ground. "No one is robbing a bank, s
