"Liam..."Valerie lifted her head and looked at Liam, her voice dry, "Why did you never tell me you were this powerful...""Powerful?" Liam shook his head, indifferent. "What's so great about that?"Besides, you never asked about me either."He turned his head and looked at Valerie calmly as he spoke.Hearing this, Valerie froze for a moment.Ever since the first time she met Liam, she had always assumed certain things based on the rumors she had heard.It seemed she really had not asked about anything regarding him.In the next moment, a bitter smile tugged at the corner of her mouth.Originally, Valerie thought that after everything Liam had been through, facing such a low point, he would need her help.She believed that she could finally do something for him!Valerie was confident that with her by his side, Liam would surely rise again. But who could have imagined...Things were nothing like what she had thought!Liam had not changed at all. He was even more outstanding
Liam would not change his mind just because of Yassir's plea for mercy."I…"Seeing this scene, Valerie froze for a moment. Although her suggestion had not been agreed upon by Liam, a hint of admiration flashed in her eyes as she looked at him!Compared to before, Liam now exuded a newfound decisiveness, a change that made Valerie's heart race with confusion and infatuation.At the moment Liam spoke, Yassir's vision went black. He could not handle such a shock and immediately fainted!In his wildest dreams, Yassir never imagined that what was supposed to be a school reunion where he could show off would end up like this—all because he targeted Liam.Not only did he suffer a devastating blow, but he also dragged his entire family down with him to ruin. The once-glorious Carver Lighting Corporation was completely wiped out in less than five minutes, all because they had offended Liam.Yassir forever lost his arrogant, overbearing demeanor. If given another chance, not even under t
Even though Liam completely ignored them, the classmates in the private room were fully aware of what had just transpired. Liam’s strength had far exceeded anything they could have imagined!Liam was probably the most extraordinary person they had ever encountered in their lives.However, the question remained—why had none of them ever heard any news about Liam before?The next moment, their furious gazes turned toward Yassir, who lay unconscious on the ground.If it were not for Yassir’s nonsense earlier, spouting that Liam was a useless ex-convict fresh out of prison, they never would have treated him that way!If they had treated Liam a little better just now, he might have remembered their old ties. Even if he offered just the tiniest bit of help, no matter how small, it could have turned their lives completely upside down in the best way!The more they thought about it, the angrier they became. The people in the private room were so frustrated that they wanted to drag Yassir
Finally, Valerie had made up her mind. She lifted her head and looked at Liam, and asked a question."Ridiculous? What’s so ridiculous about it?" Hearing Valerie's voice, Liam had a moment of confusion before he calmly responded, "The rumors in South City have always been like that. It’s normal for you to have such a misunderstanding."Moreover, even with such a misunderstanding, you still chose to stand by my side earlier."It seemed he had recalled the moment when Valerie stood resolutely in front of him.A smile appeared on Liam's face. "Being able to do all that is already remarkable!""But..."Listening to Liam's words, Valerie's eyes trembled slightly."There are no 'buts' about it." Liam shook his head and turned to look at her. "Although I don’t have much sentiment attached to this class reunion, at least I got to see you again."From you, I can still see that some things from the past never change."As he said these words, an image of Serena’s cold face suddenly flashe
Without hesitation, Liam got into the car as well."Where did you say you wanted to go just now?"Valerie, sitting in the driver's seat, asked while fastening her seatbelt, "If I drop you off this time and know where you live, don't be surprised if I come looking for you to hang out!""You're always welcome." Hearing Valerie's words, Liam smiled and responded, "I live in Hush Purple Gardens now.""Where?"Valerie's hand froze while fastening her seatbelt, and she turned her head sharply."Hush Purple Gardens." Liam asked, confused, "What’s wrong?""Nothing…"Valerie's hand trembled, and a bitter smile flashed across her face.Earlier, when Liam mentioned it, she caught the words 'Hush' but did not pay much attention because she was on the phone at the time.If she had heard earlier that Liam lived in Hush Purple Gardens, she probably would not have made the subsequent mistakes.After all, anyone from South City would know the significance of Hush Purple Gardens in the enti
After carrying it with him for so long, the once simple and ancient-looking Zenith Token had undergone some changes! It now appeared more vibrant and mysterious!Sometimes, Liam even had an illusion, as if the Zenith Token were alive! However, he quickly reminded himself that it was just his imagination.After toying with it for a moment, Liam prepared to put the Zenith Token back in its place. But at that very moment—Buzz—The Zenith Token suddenly vibrated.A flash of white light surged through!"Hmm?"The sudden abnormality made Liam squint his eyes sharply. He grasped the Zenith Token tightly, but no matter how fast he reacted, he couldn’t catch that fleeting white light.Still, Liam managed to sense the aura that came from the dissipating light.His body shuddered, and a flash of shock crossed his eyes.Even though the aura was faint, the overwhelming sensation it brought—like a massive tidal wave or the blinding radiance of the sun—instantly made Liam's hair stand on e
According to the news.Due to the tremendous success and response of Bellflower's launch, many companies in Hestia are now seizing the opportunity to join in and have introduced many medications.All sorts of traditional Hestian medicines for treating various diseases have appeared on the market.However, since they did not have authentic prescriptions, many of these medications had no real efficacy. Some might even be harmful.As Liam read this news, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.After all, he knew very well that this mess of random medications would undoubtedly affect Bellflower.Liam was not worried about Bellflower's sales.He just felt that these bizarre medications would cause a significant blow to the trust that the Hestian public had just started to build in traditional Hestian medicine through Bellflower!It was precisely because of people like this that traditional Hestian medicine had become increasingly neglected!However, Liam also knew that once the pub
"There are so many medicines on the market under the label of traditional Hestian medicine, do you really not know whether they are effective or not?"Serena’s cold and stunning face was filled with anger, "What does Liam's cooperation with us and the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation have to do with this? How can you say such things just for a small profit?""Our Lloyd Group is the one that needs to cooperate with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation!""That may not be the case!"Hearing Serena daring to confront her directly, Hailey's face immediately turned cold. She spoke in a sarcastic tone, "Etchen has already shown me the relevant information! Right now, the market is not lacking in medicinal materials but raw materials!""Our Lloyd Group is the largest supplier of raw materials in South City!"Hailey rolled her eyes with disdain!"Mom! I've already told you! The reason why even the Ingram Group, which is working with Etchen, is now producing Hestian medicine is becaus
Is all of this real or fake?"Commander Warren."Bluebird looked at Gabriel, his voice cold and calm, and nodded slightly.Compared to before, Bluebird's attitude towards Gabriel had noticeably changed.If, in the past, Bluebird's attitude towards Gabriel was like that of a subordinate to a superior in the military, then now, although she still showed respect, that sense of duty-bound obedience was gone.Because Bluebird knew very well who she was serving now!"You're really not dead..."Hearing Bluebird's admission, a flash of utter shock crossed Gabriel's eyes.In the next moment."Grand... Grandmaster Burrey..."His eyes trembled as he looked at Liam, his voice so dry due to the shock that it came out strained.Gabriel was well aware of how severe Bluebird's injuries were at that time.It could be said that everyone present had basically declared Bluebird's death.When they returned to the temporary base of the Nine Nether Squad, it was merely to fulfill Bluebird's last
At the same time…Liam was completely unaware of everything happening in South City.He also had no idea that, due to some misunderstandings, Willow was already furious and seeking help to rescue him from the Central Military Region.At this moment, he had already arrived at the Southern Military Region and met with Gabriel, who was overwhelmed with work."Grandmaster Burrey, please don't blame me for not coming to greet you…"Noticing Liam's arrival, Gabriel forced a bitter smile. After glancing at the documents in his hand, he said helplessly, "I received an unexpected notice, and I really couldn't get away…"It was clear that Gabriel genuinely felt guilty about not being able to greet Grandmaster Burrey in person.Even now, having already met Liam, he was still busy explaining himself."No need."Liam shook his head calmly.He did not care about any of this.What Liam was concerned about was the matter regarding Bluebird that Gabriel mentioned over the phone."Go ahead.
"So, Miss Lloyd, you mean to ask me to get someone out of the military for you?"Hearing Serena's words, Kenton was stunned for a moment."Mister Welford, what's wrong?"Serena's voice suddenly became flustered. "Is it a bit difficult?""From what you're saying, the unit that took the person should belong to the Central Military Region, which is different from our Western Military Region."Kenton hesitated. "Crossing war zones is indeed a bit troublesome…""Mister Welford, you must help me!"Upon hearing this, Serena grew even more anxious. "We can pay, as long as you can rescue him…"However, before she could finish, Kenton's voice interrupted."But how could I refuse a beauty's request!" Kenton chuckled heartily. "Don't worry, even if it's difficult, I can handle it. Coincidentally, I'm in South City lately. Even the commander of the Central Military Region has to give me some face!""Just give me the details about your friend and wait for my news."His voice was full of co
"Then give it a try."Sam chuckled and agreed, "I just didn't expect that one day, our Lloyd Group would choose to save that worthless Liam!""Alright."Hearing the voices around her, Hailey also nodded in agreement.However, soon, she seemed to recall something, turned to look at Serena, and asked, "But do we really have the ability to get someone out of the military's hands?""Yes."Hearing this, Serena gritted her teeth, her eyes flashing with determination."If you might have a way, then go ahead and try."Seeing this, Hailey said no more and waved her hand."I just hope we don't go through all this trouble, only for that ungrateful Liam to turn his back on us!""Mom, don't worry, that won't happen!"Serena shook her head.Immediately, she turned around and quickly left the Lloyd family mansion.Not long after, Serena returned to her office at Lloyd Group.She hurriedly made her way to her desk and started searching through a pile of documents.When she finally spott
"I…" Seeing this scene, Serena's body froze abruptly, trembling slightly out of anxiety.She desperately wanted to understand the situation immediately and help Liam.However, the situation in front of her made it clear that rushing off alone to save Liam was definitely not an option!"Phew…"Serena took a few deep breaths, trying to calm herself down.Was there any way to convince the members of the Lloyd family to help Liam?The next moment, her eyes lit up as if she had thought of something."Mom, it's not that I care about Liam, but if we want to collaborate with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation on the White Glycoside Cream project, Liam cannot be in trouble!"Serena raised her head and looked at Hailey."What does our Lloyd Group's collaboration with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation have to do with that useless Liam?"Hailey frowned deeply."Mom! Think about Liam's relationship with Lucy, and you'll understand!"Serena hurriedly replied, "When you were discu
"We really don't know."Sam shook his head, but soon, a disdainful sneer appeared on his face. "But that useless Liam struts around deceiving people all day long. Maybe that's why he got into trouble with the military!""That's actually possible!" Hailey's face flashed with realization and mockery. "Looks like he's finally getting what he deserves!""Exactly!""The military isn't like us—they won't tolerate that useless Liam."Charice, standing in the back, let out a cold laugh. "Just seeing him boast and spew nonsense all day, it was obvious he'd end up like this sooner or later!""Hahaha!""Right, he's just getting what he asked for!""Serves him right for showing off in front of us all the time—he's practically asking for it!"…Inside the Lloyd family mansion, a series of schadenfreude-laden laughs echoed. Everyone from the Lloyd family started mocking Liam one after another.Among them, Etchen's voice was the most grating!However, just as the Lloyd family members were
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
