"Liam, can his condition be cured?"Upon hearing Liam's words, Isabela jerked her head up to look at him anxiously. Compared to money, Isabela was most concerned about Sunny's health. It had always been a source of pain in her heart.Liam smiled and nodded. "Of course. It can be cured, but it requires some medication. I didn't bring the herbs today, so I can't treat him now. Aunt Isabela, wait a couple of days for me to come back, and I'll help Uncle Sunny with his recovery. He'll be healthy again in no time."Isabela clapped her hands, and a bright smile appeared on her face. "That's wonderful! You have no idea how much I've worried because of your Uncle Sunny's health issues! Liam, it's really great to have you back!"After everything that had happened, she had developed an unconditional trust in Liam. Since he said Sunny's health could be restored, she believed it without question.Liam glanced around the house as he suggested, "Aunt Isabela, why don't you come and stay at my p
Isabela hesitated before she spoke. "Liam, your past is far more complicated than you think.""Aunt Isabela, what is going on?" Liam frowned.Isabela sighed heavily. "I guess I should start from the very beginning."The truth is, my relationship with your mother wasn't as simple as she claimed. We weren't just co-workers in the same factory. I first met your mother one night during a heavy rainstorm. I was walking home along the railway when I saw your mother, heavily pregnant, lying in a pool of blood. She was alone and unconscious. I was terrified and immediately called Uncle Sunny to help me take her to the hospital."When we arrived at the hospital, the doctor said your mother was in critical condition and might not survive. At that moment, she regained consciousness. With her last bit of strength, she told the doctors not to worry about her but to save you at all costs. Fortunately, both of you made it through that night." Isabela looked up at Liam and continued, "You were b
A palpable aura of pressure emanated from Liam, making everyone in the room struggle to breathe. Whoosh!The curtains beside the window flapped violently despite the absence of wind. The room's temperature plummeted abruptly, and the oppressive atmosphere made it hard for everyone to catch their breath."My mother… Is there a chance she's still alive?"Liam lifted his head, his eyes filled with confusion as he gazed forward. Despite not having seen his mother since he was six years old, he never forgot the memories of her from before then. He vividly remembered every single thing his mother did for him as a child.The sweater she knitted by hand. How she waited at the market early in the morning just to buy the freshest meat for Liam because he craved it. She would rather endure the cold herself, ensuring he wore the warmest clothes.The warmth from those times was something Liam would never forget. His mother's face had become blurry in his mind, not because he could not reca
"Misha Ellis?"Hearing his mother's name, Liam felt a moment of disorientation.Isabela nodded. "Yes. Only such a beautiful name could match your mother's extraordinary grace and beauty."Regaining his composure, Liam asked, "Aunt Isabela, is there anything else you know about my mother?"Isabela shook her head. "No. I've told you everything I know about her.""Thank you, Aunt Isabela. I'll be leaving now. I'll bring some good herbs and visit you and Uncle Sunny again in a couple of days."After suddenly learning so much information, he needed time to process it.Isabela waved her hand. "Go on, go on."Liam turned and left. Seeing him move, Nathaniel hurriedly followed behind.As Liam descended the stairs, thousands of men in black suits parted in the middle, creating a path for him. They bowed their heads in respect as he passed."Just how powerful has Liam become..."Upstairs, Isabela saw this through the window and could not help but gape in astonishment. Her encounter wi
Liam had no idea that his single remark would stir up a storm of bloodshed and chaos throughout South City.However, he probably would not have cared even if he had known. After all, those who wished to follow him, like Nathaniel, would need to demonstrate some sincerity.Upon returning to Villa No. 3, Liam took out his phone and made a few calls. He intended to use various channels to gather information about his mother. The people he contacted were all prominent figures, but due to the sudden mention of events from long ago and the passage of time, none could provide him with much information.However, everyone on the other end of the line assured him that they would report back immediately if they discovered any leads.Liam was not entirely without results. In his investigation into his mother's real name, he found no records of 'Helen Ellis' or 'Misha Ellis'. It was as if they had never existed.Everything seemed unusually calm, making the situation seem all the more bizarre.
Ronald smiled bitterly and replied, "Coincidence? If it were just a coincidence, that would be great. But how can there be so many coincidences in the world?"Liam said that he wanted the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation to cancel their cooperation with the Irving family and choose to work with the Lloyd Group instead. Right after that, we received the news!"Ronald looked extremely conflicted as he asked, "Do you think all this could possibly be a coincidence?"Ronald could not help but feel bewildered when he recalled what had happened.Felix raised his head and reluctantly said, "Maybe these two things really just happened to coincide?"Ronald waved his hand and said to Felix, "Alright, just pack up your things. Why think so much? We just need to see if Mister Ulrick will come to our home today, and everything will be clear!"Many of the Lloyd family members shared Felix's thoughts. They found it hard to believe that Liam had gained such power!Despite their doubts, the cha
The next day, Liam received a call from Serena and arrived at the Lloyd family mansion. Liam had only visited the Lloyd residence once in a hurry due to an incident involving Henry. It had been a long time since his last visit.As he approached the mansion, Liam noticed the decorations on either side of the road to welcome Howser and the red carpet on the ground. He could not help but shake his head. If it were not for Serena's reminder, Liam would have completely forgotten about the event. To Liam, Serena was the only person in the Lloyd family who mattered.He was only there for her.With that thought, he walked toward the entrance of the Lloyd residence."Ah, Liam, you're here! Finally, we get to see you!" Before Liam could step inside, Hailey spotted him and rushed over with an exaggerated smile plastered on her face."I always knew you had potential. What happened at the South City Bank was just a misunderstanding! It was all the shameless Irving family's fault for deceiv
"Serena, since I’ve informed Howser, he'll definitely come," Liam said calmly, glancing down at Serena.Serena was visibly more relaxed after Liam’s confirmation. She lifted her head and asked, "Do you know approximately when Mister Ulrick might arrive?"Liam responded after a moment of contemplation, frowning slightly. "Due to some health issues, Howser mentioned he needed a few days of rest but planned to visit today. However, he didn't specify an exact time."He checked his watch and added, "Given the time, he should be here soon.""Then, let's wait," Serena said, a fleeting hint of joy crossing her strikingly beautiful face.However, the other members of the Lloyd family looked tense upon hearing Liam’s words. They quickly turned away and began hurriedly checking the preparations made to welcome Howser.The Lloyd family had never had someone of Howser's status visit them, and they were anxious about making any mistakes. Compared to their busy and nervous behavior, Etchen stoo
Hailey froze for a moment, then immediately frowned. Biting her teeth in frustration, she snapped, "What the hell is going on with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation?" "A project this big, with such high profits, and they didn't even inform us? We didn't even know about the launch of the White Glycoside Cream!"And now, they won't even let us in? The Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation has gone too far!" Hailey was seething with resentment. "They really have overstepped!" Standing beside her, Sam also wore a dark expression. Other members of the Lloyd family started cursing as well. None of them had expected the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation to treat the Lloyd Group this way! However… In contrast to the growing anger around her, Serena remained calm, standing silently at the back. She didn't think there was anything wrong with the way the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation had handled things. She had discussed this matter with the Lloyd family mem
However, Charice and Sam had barely stepped into the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation building for five minutes before they were sent out in disgrace. Just like the previous attempts, they failed once again. This time, they didn't even get past the lobby—before, at least, they could meet with someone in charge. "What's going on? Before, we could at least talk to the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation's representatives, but this time, we didn't even get to see anyone!" Sam's face was filled with frustration. "If we can't get in, it means the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation really doesn't want to work with us…" Charice sighed. "But if they don't want to cooperate with the Lloyd Corporation, shouldn't they at least give us a reason?" Before Charice could finish speaking, Sam cut in, his voice laced with anger. "We used to have such a good working relationship with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, but now we don't even know about the launch of the White Gly
"That useless trash, what did he do this time?" Sam turned his head toward Charice, his voice dry and hoarse. "Who… who knows…" Charice shook her head, her expression stiff. "Could it really be that he caused some huge trouble, which is why such a big scene happened?" Just based on that scene earlier—forget about escorting Liam. It was enough to wage a small-scale battle! Without hesitation, they quickly picked up their pace and hurried forward. "The man at the entrance just now, the one taken away in the military vehicle—do you know what happened?" Charice stopped a staff member of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, who had also been hiding to the side in shock, and hurriedly asked. They wanted to understand exactly what had happened! Why had so many soldiers chosen to take Liam away right in front of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation building? However, the staff member they questioned was just a low-level employee of the foundation. Forget t
"Grandmaster Burrey!" Jerry hurried over to Liam, came to a halt, and saluted respectfully before quickly explaining, "There was an unexpected situation just now, and Commander Warren had to handle it, so he couldn't come to pick you up!" "I hope you understand!" As he spoke, he was clearly worried about displeasing Liam. "It's fine." Hearing this, Liam gently shook his head. He never really cared about such matters. However, when he saw the grand convoy behind him, he couldn't help but sigh again. "Didn't I tell Gabriel before to avoid all this unnecessary fuss?" Every time Gabriel came to see him, the scene he created always gave Liam a headache. "Grandmaster Burrey…" Hearing Liam's words, Jerry froze momentarily before cautiously raising his head to look at him. "Commander Warren specifically instructed us that the most important thing is to ensure your safety…" "Alright then…" Liam sighed helplessly. He could tell that Gabriel meant well, but thi
For him, revealing his identity was never a concern. Liam had never deliberately concealed who he was. He simply did not want unnecessary trouble. "Alright." Hearing Liam's response, Lucy gently nodded. "I just hope that through our efforts, we can gradually change the perception of traditional Hestian medicine among the people of Hestia." Liam lifted his gaze toward the pharmaceutical factory operating in the distance, a glimmer of anticipation in his eyes. This was what he had always wanted to accomplish! "Grandmaster Burrey, don't worry. It will happen!" Standing behind Liam, Lucy looked as picturesque as a painting. Her delicate face was adorned with a radiant smile. She had never doubted Liam. The Next Day After wrapping up their affairs, Liam and Lucy returned to South City together. Liam had not asked Lucy to accompany him, but she mentioned that she had other matters to handle at the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation's South City branch.
"Ginland..." Thinking of that place, Liam let out a cold snort. "Are there any other particularly difficult issues?" He turned his head to look at Lucy and asked. "There's nothing else too tricky left." Lucy looked at Liam with a smile. "We've taken care of everything." For them, the most difficult times had already passed. But before seeing Liam, they still felt somewhat unsettled. Now that he was here, Lucy and the others could finally put their minds at ease. "Then let's go check out the White Glycoside Cream production facility." Even though Lucy told Liam that everything had been handled, he couldn't just ignore it completely. Liam still decided to visit the production site himself. "No problem." Lucy's smile grew even brighter. She actually wanted Liam to see the results of their hard work over this period. If they could earn some praise from Grandmaster Burrey, that would be even better. Without delay, after instructing the driver on the
Shortly after, Liam exchanged a few more words with Gabriel before ending the call. Even after hanging up, Liam could still sense the aura behind him growing increasingly chaotic. For a grandmaster of martial arts to have such a reaction, it was clear that Bluebird's heart had been deeply shaken. Even though her strength was already formidable, the Central Military Region had been the place where she had spent the first half of her life. "It's fine. I'm here." Without turning around, Liam spoke calmly, "As long as you don't want to go back, no one can force you to." Although he still didn't know what Bluebird planned for the future, this was one thing he could easily promise her. The moment she heard his words, the turbulence in Bluebird's aura immediately settled. Sensing this, Liam smiled faintly. "Grandmaster Burrey… what did you just say?" At that moment, Lucy looked at Liam curiously. It seemed like she had caught him saying something earlier. "Nothin
Hearing Gabriel's words over the phone, Liam paused. There was no denying it—Gabriel was truly clever. Beneath his seemingly simple and honest appearance lay a sharp sense of perception. The moment he sensed that Liam might be angry, he immediately apologized. Just like that, the anger that had started to rise within Liam subsided slightly. "Grandmaster Burrey, getting mad at someone like me isn't worth it!" When he did not hear a response from Liam for a long time, Gabriel cautiously spoke up again. "I never said I wouldn't provide the Central Military Region with the White Glycoside Cream." Noticing Gabriel's shameless persistence, a trace of helplessness flashed in Liam's eyes. "Recently, the supply of White Glycoside Cream has been limited. "I also care about the soldiers in the Central Military Region. If production stabilizes in the future, I will naturally increase the supply for them." "I know, I know! Grandmaster Burrey, I understand!" Sensing that L
"I..." Liam furrowed his brows, about to say something more to Lucy. But just then… Ring, ring— Lucy's phone rang again. She glanced down at the screen, and the moment she saw the caller ID, she froze for a second. Then, with a sigh, she turned to Liam with a helpless smile. "Grandmaster Burrey, see what I mean?" She shook her head. "I just mentioned Commander Warren, and now he's calling again!" "Give me the phone." Liam's expression darkened as he gestured for her to hand it over. Without hesitation, Lucy obediently passed the phone to him. Liam picked up the call without a second thought. "Miss Hill, how's the matter I asked about yesterday? I heard that the production of White Glycoside Cream ointment has stabilized recently!" "Come on, have a little mercy and allocate more for the Central Military Region. The soldiers have it tough!" "You know how close I am with Grandmaster Burrey. If he asks, I'd even jump into boiling oil for him!" "
