"Thank you! Thank you, Grandmaster Burrey!"Oscar repeatedly expressed his gratitude toward Liam.He held onto the contact information that Liam had left behind, cherishing it as if it were the most precious thing in the world."Alright, I’m leaving now."Liam glanced at Oscar indifferently and then turned to leave Golden Cross Hospital.Watching Liam’s departing figure, Oscar and Declan stood still, their eyes trembling, hearts filled with overwhelming excitement."Mister Homer, we mustn't casually dial this number," Declan glanced at the slip of paper in Oscar’s hand, his eyes full of reverence."I know," Oscar said as he carefully tucked away the piece of paper with Liam’s contact information.Although Liam had just told them that they could call him if they ever encountered an unsolvable problem, both Oscar and Declan were fully aware of one thing: they wouldn’t dare to dial this number unless it was absolutely necessary.As they left that morning, neither Oscar nor Declan
She directly stabbed the boning knife into the cutting board in front of her, wiped her hands, and walked straight toward Liam. "Where have you been all these years? I haven't seen you at all!"But even though it's been so long, you're still as handsome as ever!"Sophia looked Liam up and down, her face beaming with a smile.This woman, named Sophia, was a vendor Liam had known when he used to live here.Back then, almost every time Liam and Serena bought meat, it would be from Sophia's stall.And every time, Sophia would always save the best meat for Liam and Serena!Even though there was a big age gap between them, they had a great relationship."Aunt Heller, I had some matters to attend to and was away for a few years."Seeing that Sophia didn’t know he had been in prison, Liam didn’t bring it up. Instead, he smiled and said, "It’s been years, but Aunt Heller, you’re still as healthy as ever.""You cheeky boy..."Hearing Liam tease her, Sophia couldn't help but laugh."Wh
Seeing the scene before him, Liam froze for a moment.But the real reason he came to the market in the first place was, indeed, to buy some groceries."Aunt Heller, how much for the ribs?" Liam asked as he prepared to take out his phone to pay."What are you paying for?!" Sophia waved her hand dismissively, giving Liam a sharp look. "Haven't seen you in so long, and you're talking about paying for a little bit of ribs? Just take it home and eat!""Thanks, Aunt Heller."Seeing this, Liam accepted the ribs on the table, knowing full well that being too polite with Aunt Heller would lead nowhere good."Don't be so formal!" Sophia said with a hearty wave of her hand, continuing, "But listen to me, when you get home, you better treat Serena a little better!""Aunt Heller, I'm going to pick up a few more things," Liam smiled and didn't respond directly to Sophia's words. He turned around and headed deeper into the market."This boy Liam... he's just like that girl Serena, acting all
"Have something to eat first."Liam glanced at Serena and spoke calmly. Serena froze for a moment, then quickly regained her composure. She realized that it must have been Liam who had taken her from the Medical Guild and brought her to Faroe Garden! After all, she had encountered Liam at the Medical Guild at that time. Faroe Garden wasn’t far from the Medical Guild, and only she and Liam knew about this place.However, the moment she regained her clarity, a flicker of panic crossed Serena's face, and she quickly looked aside. She had repeatedly told Liam before that she had completely cut ties with her past. Yet, inside this house at Faroe Garden, there were still many memories they had shared. When Serena saw the gentian ring on the table, her body trembled."I..."Serena opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something."I made some soup. Have some; it's good for your health."At that moment, Liam’s voice sounded again. He pulled out a chair beside him and sat down."L
There was a time when she lived here with Liam.Back then, Liam would cook every day, and sometimes, Serena would accompany him downstairs to buy groceries. At that time, she didn’t think there was anything wrong with it.However, as time passed, Serena gradually began to feel that Liam was a bit lazy and useless. Especially with Hailey's constant nagging, her feelings of disdain towards Liam grew even stronger. Aside from cooking daily, Liam didn’t provide her with any other help at all.Not long after, Liam went to prison to take the blame for the Lloyd family.While he was in prison, under the pressure and influence of the Lloyd family, Serena slowly started thinking about divorcing Liam.Years later, now, tasting the food Liam had cooked again, and feeling that familiar flavor, a wave of sour emotions surged in her heart."Liam..."Serena lifted her head to look at Liam, as if she wanted to say something."Just eat," Liam’s calm voice interrupted.Hearing this, Serena lowe
However, in the next moment, Serena’s words made Liam pause."When my mother said that Etchen should be in charge of this project, I really should have persuaded them against it."Serena’s stunning face was full of heartbreaking sorrow. "If I had persuaded them back then, how could all these things have happened afterward…?"Liam’s words ultimately brought Serena back to that painful memory."Wasn't the collaboration with the Ingram Group handled by you?" Liam frowned and looked at Serena."It wasn’t me…" Serena lowered her head, her voice deep, "At the time, Etchen handled the negotiations for this collaboration. My mom and the others said they wanted the Lloyd Group to continue expanding, so they agreed to let Etchen handle it.""I advised them back then, saying it would be enough to just work closely with the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation," Serena added, "But it's still my fault. I didn't stand firm on my decision, and now things have turned out like this!"She raised he
"What's that?"The moment she heard Liam's words, Serena froze."I said, you no longer need to worry about those patients who were critically ill after consuming toxic substances and were admitted to the hospital."Liam looked at Serena and said calmly, "I've already treated their conditions.""As for Etchen and the so-called Lloyd Group that caused all this, don't worry, they will also face the consequences they deserve!"His voice suddenly turned cold.After Liam finished speaking, the room fell into silence.Serena's eyes widened as she stared at Liam, her expression filled with disbelief."What’s wrong?"Sensing Serena's gaze, Liam frowned and asked."What's wrong? You're asking me what's wrong?"After hearing Liam’s words, Serena finally snapped out of it. Her voice was filled with anger as she spoke, "Liam, how can you joke with me about something like this?""Let’s not even talk about Etchen for now. Do you have any idea how severe the impact of this incident is? Do
Her expression gradually became stronger!No matter what she had gone through, in the end, she could only rely on herself.After hearing what Liam had just said, Serena no longer wanted to continue confiding in him. She once again transformed into the proud CEO of the Lloyd Group.The last hope for the patients in the hospital had already been shattered.She knew that, ultimately, she would have to face everything that was about to happen!But no matter what the future held, Serena believed that she would be able to face it!Even if it meant facing an abyss!“I’ll be leaving now.”After speaking, she turned around, ready to leave the room.However, just as she was about to exit, she slowly stopped in her tracks.“No matter what you meant by those words earlier, or whether you were just trying to make me feel better, all of this is truly hard to accept!”“In the future, I really hope you’ll change and get rid of those bad habits you brought out from prison.”Then, Serena’s cl
"I still don't know if what you told me back then, about Grandmaster Burrey being so powerful, is true or not," Pearlyn said softly, her voice tinged with a deep sadness. "We believed in Grandmaster Burrey at the time and decided to wait for that miraculous medicine. But... can we really wait long enough for it?"In fact, it had not been long since their lives were saved by Liam.But for Pearlyn, who had since regained consciousness, it felt like an eternity had passed.After waking up and seeing her broken body, she suffered a tremendous blow. It took all her strength to maintain her composure until now, and that was closely tied to what Fabian had told her about Liam.In truth, it was this sliver of hope that kept her going.However, as the days dragged on, compounded by an infection from her reckless attempt to remove her scars, Pearlyn—already fragile—was nearing her breaking point."Pearlyn, don't worry."Looking at the scarred and despondent Pearlyn, a flash of heartache c
Recently, Agustine had been working tirelessly alongside Lucy on the launch of the White Glycoside Cream. It had been an arduous journey!However, as he watched this groundbreaking medicine, one that could astonish all of China, receive such a cold reception, Agustine, even as a staff member of the Hestia Drug Administration, could not help but feel frustrated."Grandmaster Burrey…" Lucy turned to look at Liam and muttered."What's the matter?"Hearing this, Liam turned to look at Lucy and asked calmly."About the White Glycoside Cream…"After a moment of hesitation, Lucy finally asked, "What should we do next? We still have a large stockpile of raw materials in our warehouse. Should we continue production of the White Glycoside Cream?"She appeared deeply conflicted.Continuing production meant further losses. Halting production meant watching the raw materials in the warehouse slowly decay and rot.All of this left Lucy feeling incredibly distressed. The losses that the Whit
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
