"If you cause trouble, it's the Lloyd family who will suffer! Get out of here immediately! Don't make me say it a second time!""What nonsense are you spouting?!" Liam shouted, a surge of anger rushing through him.What did they mean by saying they were blind to let their daughter marry him? What did they mean by the Lloyd family bringing him in?Liam had just been released from prison, and the Lloyd family despised him as a convict, forcing Serena to divorce him.He was then invited to attend the Hill family's annual gathering and happened to run into the Lloyd family members, who thought he would drag them down.Liam could no longer endure it. He lifted his head, his eyes blazing with anger."Who do you think you are?""How dare you speak to us like that?" Upon hearing this, Sam's face flashed with a cold expression. Tobias interrupted in a mocking tone, "I've heard Serena mention you. I didn't realize your tone was so grand! How could a useless person like you dare to speak
As the scene unfolded, a sudden shock gripped Ronald's heart, flooding him with a thick sense of panic. Lucy headed to none other than where Liam was located."Miss Hill, please don't worry. There seems to be a misunderstanding here. This man snuck into the annual gathering himself. Although he has some connection with the Lloyd family in the past, it has long been severed. We just wanted to kindly help you get rid of him quickly..."Ronald quickened his pace, hastily following Lucy, intending to explain.Lucy's furious and hurried stride toward Liam confirmed that she had recognized him as not being an invited guest at the annual gathering.Lucy must have been familiar with all the guests invited by the Hill family, but a man in cheap attire was sitting in the dining area, indulging himself continuously. How could Lucy not be angry?It was not just Ronald. Tobias hurriedly followed suit."Miss Hill, please listen to me..."He tried to sound casual, as if he had something to say
"There's no need for that."Liam hastily waved his hand upon hearing Lucy's words. He did not want to make a big fuss about it."Alright then."Lucy nodded with disappointment. Though Liam felt it was not a big deal, she still felt like she had slighted Grandmaster Burrey.Lucy lifted her head and asked, "Grandmaster Burrey, do you want anything else to eat? The chef can make anything you'd like. You don't need to worry about the annual gathering. We can postpone it anytime. You must eat well!"Liam glanced at the leftovers on the table, feeling somewhat embarrassed. "I've already eaten. You don't have to go through so much trouble."Lucy smiled faintly. "Then, we can start the annual gathering."The reason why the Hill family's annual gathering had not started yet was because of Liam! She turned to Liam and said, "Let's go."Liam was puzzled, not understanding Lucy's intention. "Where to?"Lucy laughed. "To the front to sit at the main stage and attend the annual gathering,
Tobias looked at Ronald seriously. "Let's first listen carefully to what the Hill family talks about at the annual gathering. These gatherings have always been straightforward, without much formality. The first topic they discuss is usually the most important, concerning future development..."Tobias knew it was the Lloyd family's first time attending the Hill family annual gathering, so he introduced it to them. Tobias had initially wanted to take the opportunity to show off in front of the Lloyd family, especially since the Corona family was mentioned at the beginning of the last Hill family annual gathering. Consequently, over the past five years, the Corona family received numerous cooperation projects from the Hill family. Since the Hill family had inexplicably supported and taken care of the Lloyd family all along, Tobias felt it was highly likely that the Lloyd family would be mentioned at the latest annual gathering! After all, the extent of care given to the Lloyd famil
"Of course! They even allocated a billion dollars for it annually. That's quite a hefty investment!""Did something happen?"All the guests were astonished. They had not anticipated that the first item on the agenda at the annual gathering would be the establishment of a charity foundation by the Hill family!The guests could not comprehend it. Why was that matter being given such significance at the annual gathering? Nevertheless, despite their confusion, they enthusiastically raised their hands once they regained their composure."Having someone so esteemed by the Hill family! Though we may not have had the honor of meeting him, Miss Hill, since you've spoken so passionately about it, we'll surely lend our support. Ocean Heavy Industries will donate ten million dollars to this charitable foundation!""Haha! Doing good deeds is always commendable. The Sun Group will contribute twenty million dollars!""A billion dollars! Miss Hill, your family is truly generous. Fortune Pharma
Sensing that Felix suddenly fell silent, Ronald turned his head and asked, "Felix, what's wrong?"Felix pointed where Liam sat. "There, look at that. That useless waste is sitting on the main guest platform!"Upon seeing Liam's figure, Ronald's face darkened, and his eyes filled with anger.Felix's expression turned gloomy. "Not only is he sitting on the main guest platform… Uncle Ronald, pay attention to Miss Hill!"Hearing Felix's words, Ronald observed closely. Soon, he noticed that Lucy would look expectantly at Liam whenever a company or family announced a donation.Ronald's face became even more unpleasant. "What's going on? Why is Miss Hill constantly staring at that useless fellow?"Felix shook his head, his expression grim. "I don't know, but how can we expose the misunderstanding surrounding that ex-convict at this rate? Seeing that waste of space flaunt his arrogance in front of me… I feel disgusted!"Ronald was extremely furious, but faced with the situation, he did
"Leave it to me!" he said with a sneer, eager to see the end of Liam, that scoundrel. Ronald hesitated for a moment before responding. "Well, there might be a way, but let's be a little cautious. Miss Hill's attitude toward Liam is quite strange. We shouldn't let our cleverness become foolishness."Felix lifted his head with a smug smile. "Uncle Ronald, you don't need to worry. Don't you think I can handle such a trivial matter?"As the members of the Lloyd family spoke, the donations from the guests in front of the hall stabilized."Boarco Group donates thirty million to support Hill family's charity work!""A family that accumulates good deeds will surely have blessings. Well said! The Aurora Group also donates thirty million!"After all, the guests just wanted to leave an impression on the Hill family, not mindlessly inflate the prices.Following Aurora Group's donation announcement, most of the guests in the hall had already donated.Felix's eyes lit up. He cleared his thr
After the completion of the donation from the Lloyd family, all eyes were initially on Felix.However, as soon as he uttered those words, everyone's attention swiftly shifted to Liam. Suddenly, the guests came to the realization."Hey? Who's this young man?""If it weren't for the Lloyd family mentioning him, I wouldn't have noticed him at all. He does seem a bit unfamiliar!""Not just unfamiliar, but how did he end up sitting on the main stage?""Could he be the son of some prominent family?""I doubt it. He doesn't seem like the son of any wealthy family, and it just struck me that after Miss Hill mentioned the charity foundation, we all made donations, but it seems like he's the only one who hasn't moved a muscle!""Yeah! I noticed that too! He's just been sitting there, as if this has nothing to do with him.""Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"The guests continued to scrutinize Liam, their gazes filled with suspicion. After all, there were only nine seats on the main stage,
