With such a background, Lilly was utterly terrified. She had never imagined that the young man she despised and mocked as a poor nobody would not only pull out a black card that stunned Francis but would also turn out to be the owner of the corporation behind Vientiane Bay Real Estate.She had even ridiculed Liam for not being able to afford a house.Reflecting on everything that had just happened, Lilly felt her vision go dark. However, she was not the only one shocked. Isabela was also taken aback by the scene before her. Even though she had realized Liam was not ordinary after he helped her with the loan shark issues from the Tiger Gang, she had thought he was somewhat wealthy at most. Even when he dealt with the gang, bringing so many people, she merely assumed it indicated Liam had a broad network of connections. However, she never could have anticipated that Liam's power was that incredible!Isabela turned her head in a daze, looking around. The expensive property she
Upon hearing Liam's response, Yuri was utterly stunned. Clearly, it was not the answer he had expected.Liam suddenly recalled something and turned to look at Lilly, who was already frozen in place. He asked casually, "By the way, can I buy a house in Vientiane Bay now?""I-I..."Lilly trembled, her face drained of all color. Gone was the arrogance she had displayed earlier when looking down on those less wealthy. She stammered but could not utter a single word. Eric was equally paralyzed, his mind a blank canvas of fear.Yuri, noticing the odd scene before him, frowned and glanced at the nearby staff."What's going on?""Mister Jenkins, here's what happened..." Another salesperson, swallowing hard, cautiously glanced at Yuri and recounted the earlier events.Despite the salesperson's attempts to downplay Lilly's attitude, Yuri's eyes widened when he heard the recount. "Audacious! Who gave you the nerve to treat Grandmaster Burrey this way?" He glared at Lilly, his eyes blazin
Eric lay sprawled on the floor, feeling as though he lost control of his legs. The arrogance and haughtiness he and Lilly had displayed earlier were nowhere to be seen. Despite the scene unfolding before him, Liam remained indifferent as Lilly and Eric were dragged out of the sales hall. He did not even spare Lilly a glance. To him, neither Lilly nor Eric mattered.However, there was a fleeting moment of reluctance on Isabela's face. Recalling what had just transpired, she bit her lip and remained silent."Grandmaster Burrey, I will ensure you're satisfied with our resolution!" Yuri reiterated, worried that Liam might still be displeased.Liam shook his head slightly. "Just handle it. Make sure nothing like this ever happens again at Vientiane Bay."Yuri straightened up, his expression serious. "Rest assured, Grandmaster Burrey!"Yuri suddenly remembered and asked, "Oh, Grandmaster Burrey, you mentioned you were here to look at houses. Did you find a house you like?""Yes, I
"But... but..."Isabela opened her mouth as if wanting to say more.Liam could not help but laugh as he placed the keys into Isabela's hands. "No buts about it! Aunt Isabela, just accept it. A bigger house will be more comfortable for you, Uncle Sunny, and Yanne.""I..."Looking at the house keys in her hand, Isabela felt dazed. Everything that had happened felt incredibly unreal to her!At first, she just wanted Liam to accompany her family to look at some houses. Isabela mustered all her courage to spend all her savings, yet she could only afford the smallest house in Vientiane Bay. Even so, she encountered outrageous discrimination!However, who could have known that the Vientiane Bay property she dreamed of owning actually belonged to Liam's company? In the end, Liam not only stood up for her but also gifted her the largest unit—a 430-square-meter house!Everything felt like a dream to Isabela."It turns out that deciding to raise Liam was the best decision we've ever m
Liam had been a concern for Isabela. Liam waved his hand dismissively. "I'll stay here for now." Isabela's face lit up with excitement. "We'll go pack our things! Once we're done, I'll make meat buns for you!" Liam smiled and nodded. "No problem."After bidding Liam farewell, Isabela, clutching the keys like a treasure, happily left the sales hall with Sunny and Yanne.Watching the warm scene of Isabela and her family leaving, a hint of a smile flickered in Liam's eyes. He felt content knowing that those he cared about were happy."Did you have something to tell me?" Liam asked, turning toward Yuri.After dealing with Lilly and Eric, Liam noticed Yuri hesitating, as if he had something on his mind.Yuri lowered his head apologetically. "Grandmaster Burrey, the situation you encountered this time was indeed my responsibility. It was due to inadequate training for the employees. This won't happen again..."He worried that the incident might have affected Liam's opinion of him
Upon hearing Serena's words, Ronald suddenly stood up. "When did this happen?"Since Liam tricked them, the Lloyd family had been anxiously awaiting news from the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation.Although the foundation had stated that they would cooperate with the Lloyd Group, their hearts were still uneasy. Since they finally received the news, how could Ronald not be excited?"Just now," Serena replied happily.Ronald clapped his hands in excitement, unable to contain his enthusiasm. "That's fantastic! I've heard that when signing the contract, the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation requires some project-related documents. We need to prepare them quickly!""No worries. I've already got everything ready," Serena glanced at a nearby file bag.As soon as the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation expressed interest in collaborating with the Lloyd family, Serena began gathering the necessary materials in advance and preparing them thoroughly.Ronald was stunned for a moment before
Hailey led Etchen down from the second floor leisurely.Serena began to explain when she saw Hailey. "Mom, didn't I already explain? We've received the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation's cooperation notice. I need to go and sign the contract immediately."Hailey raised an eyebrow and sized up Serena before smiling. "Sign the contract? There's no need to rush. You don't need to worry about signing the contract for now."Serena was stunned by Hailey's words. "Don't need to worry?"Hailey nodded with a smile. "Yes, you've not been in the best state lately. I think you need to rest for a while. You don't have to worry about signing the contract."Serena became anxious. "Mom, this contract is extremely important. It involves the cooperation with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation!"Hailey rolled her eyes. "Why are you so anxious? Don't you think I know how important this contract is? That's why we've decided to let your brother handle the cooperation with the Verdant Harvest Cha
Seeing that Serena had softened her stance, Hailey broke into a smile and began to offer some insincere consolation."Serena, what I said earlier might have been harsh. You don't need to take it to heart. Not letting you handle the contract is for your own good. You've been off your game lately, and we just want you to get some proper rest."Hailey smiled as she continued, "It's just a contract! Once Etchen returns from signing the deal with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, you two can manage the project together. Don't worry. Etchen is your brother. How could he possibly take the entire project away from you?"However, despite Hailey's words, Serena knew the truth. Once Etchen signed the contract with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, he would undoubtedly become the primary person in charge. At that point, she would merely be assisting him no matter what she did."Mom, I'm worried..."Serena looked up, seeming to want to say more. In truth, she did not mind working w
