After all, the fact that Liam knew medicine was something she had never known!And Liam’s response confirmed her suspicions.This left Valerie, who thought she had already understood Liam, feeling a great sense of frustration."V-Valerie…"Just as Valerie’s mind was filled with countless thoughts, Sebastian’s voice suddenly rang out. He looked at Valerie nervously and said, "You... you should treat Liam better!""Liam being interested in you is a blessing for our Hensworth family.""If it weren’t for him, our Hensworth Group would’ve been finished this time…"Sebastian was filled with shock. He too was not sure how to communicate with Liam and instead chose to speak directly to Valerie."Yeah, Valerie, at the start, it was your mom and dad’s fault! You need to make sure you get along well with Liam!""That’s right! You can’t act petty in front of him!"Hearing Sebastian’s words, Charles and Janell both shook, suddenly becoming alert. They followed Sebastian’s words, quickly ur
Sebastian was not lying.Even though their Hensworth Group was a well-known name in South City, in front of Liam, Valerie was truly insignificant."Luck or no luck…"Hearing the murmurs from those around him, Liam showed a faint, helpless smile.The sudden shift in tone from the Hensworth family left him feeling slightly out of place.However, at that moment, Liam seemed to think of something.He turned his head to look at Charles and asked again, "Still, the question I asked earlier—are you sure you don't need my help?""I…"The moment Charles heard Liam's words, his body trembled.His mind flashed back to his previous conversation with Liam. At the time, Liam had asked him the exact same question.Back then, Charles had dismissed Liam's offer entirely, not taking him seriously.After all that had happened since then, Charles finally understood the weight of Liam's words back then."We…"Struggle flickered across Charles's face.Although the issues with Union Finance and
Janell also bowed to Liam in gratitude.At this moment, aside from this gesture, they truly did not know how else to express the excitement and gratitude they felt inside."Liam, I... I really don't know what to say!"Standing at the back, Sebastian shook his head, a wry smile flashing across his face. "All I can say is, knowing you has been this old man's good fortune!"Liam's actions had left Sebastian completely impressed, both in body and soul."Old man, listen to yourself!"Hearing Sebastian's words, Liam could not help but shake his head and chuckle. "In a bit, I'll still have to teach you boxing!"The decision to transfer money to the Hensworth Group this time was not solely because of Valerie. It was also influenced by Sebastian, this intriguing old man who had earned Liam's favor.After saying a few words to Sebastian, Liam turned to look at Charles."You won't be forcing Valerie to marry anymore, will you?" Liam asked with a smile."Of course not! Definitely not!"
Sebastian did not want Liam to feel that the Hensworth Group was entirely useless."Sir, there's no need for this."Hearing this, Liam froze for a moment before shaking his head helplessly."I'm not doing this for any reward…""Liam, whether or not you expect a reward, everything that's happened is what we should do."Despite Liam's words, Sebastian's expression remained stern as he firmly stated his stance."As for other matters, don't worry about them! In any case, we won't let you take this two billion for nothing!""Alright then."Faced with this situation, Liam could only nod in agreement.Looking at Sebastian, he continued, "But, Mister Hensworth, your back injury can't wait any longer. I'll teach you that boxing routine I mentioned earlier. Practice it daily, and within three months, your back will improve significantly…"However, before Liam could finish, Sebastian interrupted him."Liam, as I've said, there's no rush with the boxing."Displaying his stubborn side, Se
At first, she brought Liam back just to pretend to be her boyfriend. But she never imagined that a series of events like this would follow."Alright, I'm heading out. Let's catch up another time."With a bright smile, Liam bade farewell to the Hensworth family members and turned to leave their villa.Since he had promised Valerie to pose as her boyfriend, he needed to play the part convincingly.As the Hensworth family watched Liam's tall and confident figure disappearing, a hint of awe flickered in their eyes.Even though they had just interacted with Liam normally, their hearts were still shaken by the earlier revelations.For a long while, they could not recover from the shock.Who would have thought?The man so despised by the Lloyd family, Liam, turned out to wield such power and influence. And yet, this remarkable person was willing to stay in their small South City!"With the current state of the Hensworth Group, how much equity would Liam's 2 billion yuan buy?"Sudden
In the name of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation, the acquisition of Union Finance was completed successfully. Only then did Lucy realize that the scope of Union Finance's business was far more extensive and its foundation deeper than they initially thought!Although this time, the acquisition relied on the vast cash flow of the Verdant Harvest Charity Foundation to crush Union Finance, the process was not without challenges.In fact, if not for finding a loophole in one of Union Finance's accounts, the acquisition might not have gone so smoothly. The entire operation against Union Finance unfolded with overwhelming force, catching them completely off guard. Otherwise, the outcome could have been unpredictable.After the acquisition, Lucy also discovered subtle ties between the Nosh family and the capital city. However, by the time the Nosh family reacted, it was already too late!Upon taking over Union Finance's related businesses, Lucy originally planned to make a trip back
All of this filled Serena's heart with overwhelming rage!She never expected that Hailey and the others would act so selfishly!"Serena... we…"Hearing Serena's words, Ronald froze, a trace of embarrassment flashing across his face.He never thought that what they had done in secret would be discovered by Serena!Ronald shot a dissatisfied look at Hailey.He had urged Hailey countless times to return the money quickly, but Hailey, due to various reasons, kept delaying.It was not just Ronald.Hailey and Etchen also showed a hint of unease on their faces after hearing Serena's words."What were you all thinking?"Seeing their reactions, Serena's anger flared up even more. Her almond-shaped eyes widened as she spoke."We were just worried that if Lloyd Group went bankrupt, at least we'd have some money left in hand," Hailey muttered softly.Recently, Serena's influence within Lloyd Group had been on the rise.And this matter, to begin with, was indeed Hailey and the others'
"Besides, after we saw that Lloyd Group weathered the crisis, we were already planning to move the money back to the reserve fund."Hailey raised her head in displeasure, pursed her lips, and said, "We were just delayed by a few days because of some issues, and look at your attitude now! Is this how you talk to your parents?""Mom! Regardless of whether you plan to transfer the money back to the reserve fund, it was wrong of you to take it out during Lloyd Group's crisis in the first place!"Serena insisted on her point."Wrong? What's wrong about it?"Hearing this, Hailey glared fiercely, raising her voice. "This money belongs to the three of us. We can put it wherever we want! Now you're trying to control where our money goes, just like you're trying to control everything at Lloyd Group!""I've never seen a daughter like you!"Anger contorted Hailey's chubby face. "Every day, it's just you picking fights with me and your dad. Is this how you repay us?""Mom… that's not what I
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
