Hearing Liam's sudden voice, Hailey could not help but respond sarcastically."Liam, what are you pretending to do? You've been married to Serena for so long, but you've never helped her family. After the divorce, you keep causing trouble every day. Do you even have the nerve to speak?"However, despite Hailey's mockery, Liam paid no attention to it."The project you mentioned wanting to collaborate on… Is it really that important?" Liam asked, looking at Serena.Serena sighed. "It's very important, but we missed the project because of some initial issues. To make up for it, my dad is preparing to let me start a new company to handle the related matters."If we can secure this project, it would be a significant boost for the entire Lloyd Group."Serena did not think Liam could be of any help. Given her complicated feelings, she just felt the need to confide in someone."Is it important to you as well?" Liam asked, not particularly concerned about the Lloyd Group.Serena smiled
Liam replied calmly, "The Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation is mine."At the moment his words fell, the hall suddenly fell silent.Suddenly, Alex could not hold back and let out a harsh laughter. At that point, he didn't even feel a hint of anger.After all, with his status, how could he possibly bother arguing with a fool?Serena's eyes widened in disbelief. "Liam, are you done?"Liam's actions had completely shattered the sense of gratitude Serena felt in her heart.Behind her, Hailey's face was full of disgust. She stepped forward, grabbed Serena's arm, and prepared to leave. "Enough! Why stay here any longer? Let's go!"Staying there any longer would only make Hailey feel more humiliated.Alex glanced at Liam with a sneer before following Hailey out of the bank. "You should get your head checked."As Hailey dragged her away, Serena turned her head back to look at Liam, her eyes filled with complexity.She truly did not understand what was going on with him.Watching the
Listening to Hailey's words, Serena sighed and nodded before looking at Alex and said, "Yes. This time, we really owe it to you, Mister Irving."Alex smiled faintly. "It's nothing. After all, we still have to work on projects together. Helping you is essentially helping myself."Hailey grew increasingly pleased with Alex the more she looked at him. She exclaimed warmly, "Look at him. Just look at how eloquent Mister Irving is! In our future collaborations, Mister Irving, you must guide Serena more. I feel that she's been off her game lately!"Even Ronald could not help but snort coldly. "Always hanging out with that useless ex-con. What good can come of it?""Don't worry. I will," Alex said, turning to Serena with a smile.However, faced with the situation, Serena lowered her head and did not respond much.Alex asked Hailey, "Is there anything else we need to do? If not, I'll head back now."He had just received a large fund transfer from the Lloyd family and needed to handle it
"What's the big deal about it?" Etchen asked, his head held high, exuding an air of humility.However, his eyes betrayed a proud arrogance that was impossible to hide.Immediately after, Etchen glanced at Serena, letting out a mocking laugh. "I used to think managing the Lloyd Group was extremely difficult, but now, I see it's nothing special.""I..."Serena was taken aback by Etchen's clearly targeted comment. She lowered her head, looking somewhat dejected.Charice chuckled, waving her hand dismissively. "Etchen, listen to yourself! Managing a large corporation is never easy. If you find it simple, it's probably because you have a natural talent for it!"Another voice chimed in. "I agree! We should've appointed Etchen as the CEO of Lloyd Group much earlier!""That's right. Etchen has more capability and vision!"A chorus of agreeing voices echoed around the room. Observing the scene, a look of smug satisfaction flashed across Etchen's face."Etchen, I'm also curious," Hailey
Upon hearing his phone ring, Etchen's brow furrowed deeply. He barked into the receiver in annoyance."Why are you calling me now?! Don't you know I'm busy?" However, before Etchen could finish his tirade, the words on the other end of the line struck him like a lightning bolt, leaving him stunned and frozen.The members of the Lloyd family, who had been jovial just moments before, noticed his sudden change and began to inquire anxiously."Etchen, what happened?"Hailey was confused. "Yes, Etchen, what's going on? Can't it wait a bit? Don't you see we're all here celebrating you?"Etchen's expression grew even more rigid as he listened to the voices around him.He swallowed hard, his eyes glazed over. "The Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation has announced they're canceling their partnership with the Irving family."The Lloyd family fell into an eerie silence. They stared in disbelief, unable to process the shocking news."What?""This... This can't be happening!"Everyone kn
Whenever Alex was mentioned, Hailey could not help but think of the worthless Liam. A look of disgust flashed across her face.At that moment, Serena's voice suddenly rang out. "Mom... Dad..."Serena frowned as she held the contract signed between the Irving family and the Lloyd Group. "This contract... Something seems off!"When Serena returned a while ago, she noticed the contract on the table. Due to the smooth cooperation, she did not pay much attention to it.When Ronald mentioned signing the contract, Serena casually opened it. However, as soon as she saw the first item, she noticed the problem!Hearing Serena's words, Hailey frowned and walked over impatiently. "Off? How could anything be wrong with the contract signed with Mister Irving?"Serena pointed at the contract, a look of tension flashing across her delicate face."This contract clearly states that if any issues arise with the project, the Irving family will not bear any responsibility, and the Lloyd family's coo
Liam's calm words in the bank hall suddenly resurfaced in their minds.No one initially took Liam's words seriously. If they had, they would have immediately thought of him when they first heard that the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation had canceled its cooperation with the Irving family.However, reminded by Ronald, they suddenly made the connection.The cooperation between the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation and the Irving family had always been smooth. If there was an unexpected reason for the sudden change, the only situation they could recall was the words Liam had spoken back then.Noticing the unusual expressions on Ronald and Hailey's faces, Sam could not help but ask urgently, "What's going on? If you have any clues, speak up quickly! If we act fast, we might still have time to help the Irving family."He seemed quite anxious.Ronald frowned. "It's not exactly a clue, but when we went to the South City Bank to make a transfer, we happened to run into Liam."Sam rai
Upon hearing Ronald's words, Sam could not help but shake his head.Sam turned to look at Serena and said, "How pitiful! A wretch who spouts nonsense for a shred of dignity is truly the most pathetic!"Hailey chimed in, her face full of disdain as she spoke about Liam. "I feel the same way. Just thinking of that worthless man who was once my son-in-law embarrasses me!""Mom..."Listening to Hailey, Serena opened her mouth but could not say anything. She, too, had been filled with surprise.After all, the timing of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation's cancellation of its collaboration with the Irving family was indeed too coincidental. However, after hearing the Lloyd family's comments, Serena dismissed her initial thoughts.Establishing such a significant charity foundation was not something that could be accomplished merely through connections. Even if Liam knew Howser, he would not have the qualifications to establish a charity foundation. Despite that, Serena disagreed w
While Agustine was working with Lucy on the launch preparations for the White Glycoside Cream, he had already informed Matthias of all the relevant details.He was not a mole sent by Matthias.It was just that during the preparation stage for the cream's release, Agustine had come to understand the massive financial losses the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation would face if the product was not properly promoted.That number...When Agustine first heard it, his heart could not help but tremble.After learning about the situation, he immediately contacted Matthias to see if there was any way to reduce the foundation's losses.However, Matthias did not have any particularly good solutions.Since the implementation of the new traditional medicine market policies, the pressure on the regulatory department staff had been immense. Yet, the results were immediate and evident.If any errors or mishaps occurred now, further disrupting the Hestian pharmaceutical market, the consequences
At the same time…Standing at the room door, Liam looked at Sophia, who was persistently knocking. A trace of helplessness flashed across his face. "If you want to go in, I have the passcode.""Hmph!"After knocking hard on the door again to no avail, Sophia snorted coldly and turned around. "No need to open it now. It looks like Serena really isn't here.""That girl Serena, if I run into her next time, I definitely won't let her off!"She glanced angrily at the door one last time before turning to head downstairs."Let's go, Aunt Heller. Let's deal with the stall issue at the market first."Following Sophia, Liam spoke to persuade her."That girl Serena, she really made me angry this time…"Clearly, Sophia was still immersed in her frustration with Serena, grumbling as she walked.However, under Liam's persuasion, an annoyed Sophia still followed him to the market.It did not take long for the two to settle the matter regarding the market.Even though Liam knew it was unlik
At that time, Sophia understood the situation.The divorce was proposed by Serena, seemingly because she found Liam lazy and useless. Eventually, the two of them divorced.At first, in Sophia's understanding, perhaps Liam was indeed somewhat lazy. After all, compared to Serena, the gap between them was significant.If he could not bridge that gap through his own efforts, problems were bound to arise between them sooner or later.This was also why Sophia had always tried to persuade Liam to cherish Serena.But after everything that happened today, Sophia could no longer accept it!Liam, useless?She could not fathom how Serena could say such a thing!She had to confront Serena and get to the bottom of it."Aunt Heller, it's all in the past now," Liam said, shaking his head."What's done is done. Why bother asking about things that don't matter anymore?"In fact, when he first divorced Serena, there was a moment when he, like Sophia, couldn't make sense of it. But with time, L
The sound of Nathaniel echoed continuously through the streets.Recently, Nathaniel and Chester, in partnership, had been expanding their power towards the three northwestern provinces.They had become somewhat lax in their control of South City.This was the reason for the current situation.But now, Nathaniel had made up his mind—similar things would never be allowed to happen again!"Yes!"For a moment, the response from the group of men in black ahead shot into the sky."What are they doing..."A voice suddenly came from behind, causing Sophia to jump. She quickly looked back."It's nothing, Aunt Sophia."Seeing this, Liam smiled faintly. "They're busy with their own things; we're busy with ours.""Alright..."Upon hearing this, Sophia reluctantly turned her head back."You know, the president of the Fowler Society is actually quite a good person..."she muttered, as if wanting to say something.But just at that moment, Sophia's body trembled. She suddenly realized so
"Grandmaster Burrey, I understand."Upon hearing this, a cold gleam suddenly flashed in Nathaniel's eyes. "This will never happen again!"This incident was not just infuriating for Liam, but Nathaniel himself also felt utterly embarrassed!In the heart of the Fowler Society's stronghold in South City, someone dared to impersonate a member of the Fowler Society. This act itself showed a complete disregard for him.No matter what had caused this situation, he could never allow something like this to happen again."Do as you see fit," Liam said, glancing at Nathaniel indifferently. He then turned to Sophia and smiled. "Aunt Sophia, let Nathaniel handle things here at your shop. I'll go with you to the market and have a word with the management."He had not forgotten about the time when Sophia wanted to set up a stall in the market but was rejected by the management."No, no need!" Sophia waved her hands repeatedly.After everything that had happened today, she truly felt guilty ab
Even Sophia could not see the end of that black car!And beside each car stood nearly ten thousand men dressed in black suits.They said nothing, their faces cold, their imposing presence radiating an air of ruthlessness that reached the sky!At that moment, Nathaniel received a message from Liam.He did not know what exactly was happening at the scene, but Liam's tone made him extremely anxious!Nathaniel also did not understand how someone from the Fowler Society could dare to provoke Grandmaster Burrey!Immediately, he brought members from the Fowler Society in South City to the scene!However, concerned that bringing too many people might complicate the situation, Nathaniel had most of his subordinates wait outside on the street!"Please, I beg you!""Yeah! Please, spare us!""It's our fault, we were so bold and ignorant, rashly using the Fowler Society's name!""I'll kneel and apologize to you! Really, please, spare me!"...On the other side, the cries of Leopard and
If all of this is really true, doesn't that mean this man is really the president of the Fowler Society?Sophia's mind was a mess.At that moment…"Aunt Sophia, let's head back first."Liam's voice sounded. He looked at Sophia and gave a faint smile. "You don't need to worry about the rest. From now on, no one will bother you again.""When we come back, I think your shop should be restored to its original state."As he spoke, Liam turned and glanced at Nathaniel beside them."Y-Yes…"Upon hearing this, Nathaniel's body trembled, and he quickly lowered his head again.He understood the implied meaning in Liam's words.However, Sophia, who was still in shock and confusion, didn't register Liam's words at all."We have to leave quickly!"She nodded urgently. "If the police show up later, we'll be in big trouble!"Sophia was still uneasy about the current situation."Ha…"Hearing this, Liam could not help but laugh.Sophia's reaction was rather cute, but he knew well that for
"Hahaha…"Upon hearing this, Liam paused, then let out a helpless laugh. "He's the president of the Fowler Society, Nathaniel, the one you mentioned.""What?"Sophia was suddenly stunned.She widened her eyes and stared fixedly at Nathaniel, her gaze filled with suspicion. "He can be the president of the Fowler Society? Liam, don't lie to me!""I'm not lying to you…"Liam chuckled bitterly and shook his head.He turned to look at Nathaniel and sighed softly. "Did you see that? Lately, you've really been disappointing me.""Grandmaster Burrey!"Hearing this, Nathaniel trembled violently. A look of extreme fear flashed in his eyes. "I'm truly sorry! The issue with someone daring to impersonate a Fowler Society member, it's my fault!"Rest assured, from now on, I'll never let something like this happen again!"He suddenly turned around, his gaze fixed on the group of people lying on the ground ahead, including Mister Leonidas, wishing he could tear them apart with his bare hand
"What's the relationship between Bluebird and Serena?"Upon hearing Sophia's words, Liam froze for a moment, a look of confusion flashing across his eyes."I…"At the mention, Sophia froze even more abruptly.Right now, she could confirm that the current situation didn't seem to have anything to do with Serena.But the next moment, Sophia looked ahead, at the desolate scene, her body shuddered, and she suddenly snapped back to reality."Liam, listen to me, let's leave quickly!"She raised her head to look at Liam, her voice slightly tense as she spoke, "I know now how capable you are, but listen to me, we'd better leave first!"They're from the Fowler Society, and the forces behind them are far from simple. We really can't afford to mess with them. When I called the police back then, no one cared!"Sophia's face showed panic. "You've hurt so many of them, the Fowler Society won't just let this go!""I…"Upon hearing this, Liam paused.And at that moment..."Grandmaster Bur
