Vincent regretted it deeply. "I should've kicked him out earlier!"Liam's appearance undoubtedly disrupted the balance on the field. Vincent did not dare to imagine the final outcome if any conflict erupted.However, at the moment, no one would pay attention to Vincent's thoughts.Amidst the suffocating sensation among the police officers, the middle-aged man, accompanied by thousands of soldiers, had arrived at the stairs in front of the police station.Vincent and the other police officers could already feel the chilling sensation emanating from the men before them. However, what happened next made Vincent shudder abruptly, freezing him in place.The leader, clad in military attire, halted his steps in front of Liam.Then, he bent down and spoke respectfully. "Grandmaster Burrey, I apologize for the delay. We have caused you inconvenience!"Gabriel's voice echoed through the silent police station.Snap!As Gabriel's voice rang out, the thousands of soldiers behind him sudden
The day finally arrived when the police force came to understand the true meaning of authority. However, disbelief lingered.It all started when a handsome man appeared at the precinct. Suddenly, the military surrounded the police station.That man and his composure dissolved the imposing military personnel with ease.It shook them to their core.Who was he? How could someone of such caliber find himself in their precinct?However, unlike the others, Vincent and Walter understood everything.They had witnessed the events from the moment Liam entered the station to the arrival of Serena and the others.Vincent's eyes widened, fixed on the scene before him, momentarily lost in disbelief.Vincent finally comprehended Liam's urgency to make a call. He understood the gravity of Liam's words about the consequences of delay.What Vincent did not know was that if it had not been for Gabriel's timely arrival, their precinct might have faced more than just encirclement.That worthless
Upon hearing Liam's words, Gabriel sighed and refrained from further questioning. He clearly knew something about Liam. Gabriel's respect for Liam extended beyond gratitude for saving his life. It stemmed from witnessing Liam's skills when Gabriel was treated in prison. Liam, initially an obscure figure in South City Third Prison, had mastered medical arts. To be a Grandmaster meant possessing not only compassion but also formidable methods. "Grandmaster Burrey, the assault on you cannot be easily dismissed," Gabriel remarked.Soon, a glint of determination flashed in his eyes. "I must find those behind it! Whoever dares harm you, Grandmaster Burrey, will face consequences!"Liam recalled Triboar mentioning Harvest Union as he died."It won't be resolved so easily, but you needn't involve yourself further in this matter."Gabriel shook his head vigorously, his resolve resembling a drumbeat. "No! What if they send more attackers? How will we deal with that?"Gabriel lifted hi
Although Gabriel had never lived there, he was well aware of the tight security in Hush Purple Gardens, where only the wealthy and powerful dwelled—a circumstance that surely would alleviate many troubles for Liam.Gabriel stared at Liam with determination, as if daring him to disagree.Observing Gabriel's demeanor, Liam shook his head reluctantly. Given Gabriel's persistence, refusing the key would likely prolong the ordeal. Moreover, extended stays in hotels were hardly ideal.Liam agreed, taking the key. "Fine, but I'll only be here temporarily.""Temporary! Temporary!"Gabriel chuckled foolishly, nodding repeatedly. However, judging by his expression, he clearly did not believe he was merely offering Liam a temporary residence.Meanwhile, Vincent and the other police officers stood by, utterly dumbfounded by the scene unfolding before them.They never anticipated witnessing such a spectacle firsthand—a young man incessantly berating a high-ranking officer, who not only remai
Liam glanced at the trembling police officers before him. "Alright. No need to be so nervous. You haven't done anything wrong."With those words, Liam prepared to leave. After all, he had stayed at the police station to deal with Gabriel. He knew there was an alert in his file left by Gabriel at that time.The police would undoubtedly handle Serpentine and Triboar, so staying at the station any longer seemed pointless.Before leaving, Liam turned to Vincent. "Oh, and if there are any leads regarding Serpentine and Triboar in the future, remember to contact me."He did not want Gabriel to intervene too much. After all, it involved the Hill family and could even touch upon the Harvest Union.Liam did not want too many people to know. Given Gabriel's personality, who knew what trouble he might stir up if he investigated it?"No problem! You can count on us!"Vincent nearly trembled as he spoke to Liam. Seeing everyone in the station in such a state, Liam could not help but shake hi
"Affirmative."Upon hearing Casey's command, Vincent and the other officers nodded. They understood Casey's concern.Casey turned to Vincent. "Are you certain that they're surrounding the precinct to take away Grandmaster Burrey and that Liam Burrey, as mentioned by Tobias Corona in our conversation, is the same Liam?"Vincent nodded. "Yes."Casey's eyes reddened, his frustration growing instantly. "Damn it! Does Tobias want to get me killed? Back then, he told me that Grandmaster Burrey was nothing but Serena's useless ex-husband. He told me to give him something to show off in front of Serena! If he's itching to die, he shouldn't drag me into it!"Vincent wore a bitter expression. "Chief, you mustn't believe such words in the future!""No, I can't swallow this indignation!" Casey declared. With that, he pulled out his phone and called Tobias. The recent situation almost brought Casey to ruin.On the other end, Tobias received Casey's call. He picked up the phone and flashed
Though burdened by guilt over the situation with Liam, Serena swiftly adjusted herself when discussing company matters, resuming her icy demeanor as a formidable businesswoman."Thank you, Mister Corona. We appreciate your efforts on behalf of the Lloyd Group."Tobias's gaze lingered with a hint of desire as he smiled broadly. "Serena, let me introduce you to some details about my military friend..."While Tobias introduced Serena to his friend, Liam, whom they thought had offended Casey, had already returned to the hotel. The events that unfolded after his return from the provincial capital overwhelmed him. Sitting in his room, he sighed softly.As for Serena, though Liam had been deeply moved upon seeing her when she arrived at the police station, the subsequent skepticism and attitude from Tobias and Serena left him furious. He no longer wished to explain himself. However, one thing continued to weigh on his mind—the look of shock on Triboar's face before he died, as if reco
"I almost thought I got the wrong person!" Layla's face was filled with joy as she approached Liam. The last time Layla returned to South City, she wanted to see Liam but could not.Liam also smiled. "Layla, what are you doing here?"Layla chatted away. "I didn't want to stay at home. I needed some fresh air. Coincidentally, there's a villa for sale in the Hush Purple Gardens. Everyone's busy, so my sister asked me to take a look. Liam, you have no idea. Things at home have been chaotic lately..."She pouted, wanting to share recent events in the Lloyd family with Liam. However, Layla seemed to sense something and abruptly stopped. In her words, the reason for the chaos in the Lloyd family was Liam.After Liam was released from prison, the Lloyd family faced numerous setbacks and misfortunes, all of which were blamed on Liam by the family members. They believed Liam's bad luck was affecting the entire family.The Lloyd family spent their days at home complaining and blaming Liam
"I'll give you a hint."Liam gave a faint smile, but there was no emotion behind it. "Your grandfather, Arkem, sent someone to South City to find me, didn't he?""South City…"Andy froze for a moment.The next moment, his body trembled, and his eyes widened in shock. "You... you're that... Liam Burrey?!"Although Yaksha had brought Godfrey's body to Juneau to meet Arkem in secret, with very few people knowing about it, over time, the news eventually spread through the Nosh family.Not to mention, Arkem had directly sent the Monochrome Duo Wraiths to South City.The sudden disappearance of Arkem's trusted aides, who had always been by his side, was bound to raise suspicion.Most importantly, the severed arm of Yaksha had not returned to South City but remained in Juneau with the Nosh family.Through his daily, hate-filled rants, many members of the Nosh family in Juneau had learned the name of the person who killed Godfrey — the mysterious Liam from South City!However, unlike
Elsa stood dazed in place.She stared at Michael, who had collapsed on the ground, already lifeless, her eyes trembling uncontrollably.Even now, Elsa could not accept it—her son had just died right in front of her!"I... I will fight you to the death!"In the next moment, Elsa suddenly lifted her head, her face contorted, her eyes wide with rage as she rushed towards Liam. "I'll make you bury my son!"You damn, knife-wielding b*stard, I will kill you!"Her hoarse cries echoed throughout the villa's living room."You're so desperate... want to die?"Seeing this, Liam lowered his head and looked at Elsa below."I..."Upon hearing Liam's words, Elsa trembled, suddenly snapping back to her senses.Although Michael's death left her heartbroken, Elsa was not ready to die—she had not lived enough yet!She could not possibly want to die!Elsa immediately stopped in her tracks."Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I don't want to die! My son is dead! That's enough! I don't want to die!
"I didn't expect that I hadn't found you yet, and you came right to my doorstep!"Speak! What is your purpose for following behind Elsa and the others and coming to my Nosh family's banquet?"He stared at Liam, his eyes gleaming with a chilling light.As the legitimate eldest grandson of the Nosh family in Juneau, Andy was no pampered, unskilled rich second generation. He was very intelligent!Andy clearly knew that following behind Elsa and the others without being noticed, and even sneaking into the villa without alarming security, was no ordinary feat.All of this was not something just anyone could accomplish!Therefore, when facing Liam, he did not act rashly.However, Andy was quite clever, but there were always those at the scene who did not understand the situation."I didn't expect this b*stard to dare follow us the whole way!" Michael suddenly reached out, pointing at Liam while speaking harshly, "And you still dare tell Mister Andy Nosh that we brought you here!"We
He noticed this scene.Andy's expression suddenly darkened, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.This villa was his private residence.Although it had been provided for the evening banquet, most of the villa contained Andy's personal belongings, especially on the second floor, where his bedroom was.If it were not for today's public display, Andy would never have allowed someone like Elsa to go up to the second floor of the villa!And now, someone actually dared to step onto the second floor of the villa without his permission!They were really courting death!"Who allowed you to go up there?"Andy's face was gloomy, and his voice was icy cold."Do I need your permission to go up there?"Liam looked down from a higher vantage point, answering淡ly."Do you dare speak to me like that?"As soon as Andy heard Liam's words, his expression changed dramatically.As the legitimate eldest grandson of the Nosh family, one of the most influential families in Juneau, the future
Elsa lifted her head and looked at Andy."I didn't mean that."Upon hearing this, Andy shook his head.He squinted as he examined Elsa, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.The fearful attitude that Elsa and Michael showed in front of him made Andy feel quite proud. This situation proved that he held supreme authority in their hearts.As long as this was the case, it meant he could easily control the Link family!However, controlling subordinates required more than just authority. It needed a balance of both favor and power!Only then could he leave a deep impression on the other guests at this banquet!"What I meant was, since you're unwell, you should get more rest."Andy's tone changed, and he smiled warmly, speaking in a friendly manner."As for the matter this time, I've understood it, and of course, you're not to blame.""Thank you, Mister Nosh!"Hearing Andy's words, Elsa's face lit up with surprise, and she repeatedly bowed to thank him."No need to thank m
"Don't say it's some kind of accident."Andy completely ignored Michael, once again disgustedly waving his hand at Elsa, who was still nearby. He wrinkled his nose at the faint smell of urine floating in the air. "Get away from me.""Eh! Alright, alright!"Elsa quickly nodded, retreating another step.Michael closely followed her, a forced smile on his face.In front of Andy, they did not dare show any of the unreasonableness they had displayed earlier when facing Liam!"Who would wear something like this to Mister Andy Nosh's banquet?""Not just the clothes, didn't you smell that urine odor coming from her?""I remember, they're from the Link family, the ones collaborating with Mister Andy Nosh on that cosmetics brand, right? This is just hilarious!"…Hearing this, other guests at the banquet could not help but burst into mocking laughter."That damn scoundrel, making me lose face like this. Once I get out of Mister Andy Nosh's house, I'm going to find him!"Hearing the v
It was precisely because of this series of reasons that, to avoid unnecessary trouble, they decided not to drive to the dinner. That's how they happened to run into Liam.One could say that a series of coincidences aligned to create the situation that unfolded today.Not far from the scene, the woman and the man turned a corner and entered a secluded villa area. Following the narrow path inside, they arrived at a mansion guarded by security, a lavish estate."We are here to attend Mister Andy Nosh's dinner."They quickly handed the invitation, which they had been holding, to the security at the door.This mansion was one of Andy's properties."Elsa Loony, Michael Link?"The security guard took the invitation and looked suspiciously at the man and woman standing before him."Yes, it's us! It's us!"The woman, Elsa, quickly nodded.Upon hearing this, the security guard squinted and gave Elsa a once-over, his eyes briefly flashing over her tattered clothing.Elsa smiled awkward
"We've been preparing for so long, just for this banquet hosted by Mister Andy Nosh!"The woman cried with a long face and said, "Now that it's come to this, if we go to the banquet, aren't we just going to embarrass ourselves?""Umm..."Hearing this, the man turned around, looking at the woman whose clothes were torn into shreds, emitting a foul smell of urine, and was momentarily stunned.Forget about the woman's feelings. Even the man himself felt that his mother was somewhat embarrassing at the moment."We should hurry back and let me take a bath and change clothes!"The woman stopped in her tracks and anxiously spoke to the man."Mom, there's no time!" Hearing this, the man lowered his head and glanced at the time. A troubled expression crossed his face. "You know, Mister Andy Nosh can't stand people being late!""We'll explain it to him, he'll definitely understand." He lifted his head to look at the woman.This banquet was truly important to them; otherwise, they would
Seeing this, the man whispered, "Also, the paramedics said that if we don't cut open your clothes, you might really lose your life..."Hearing the man's words, the woman's face immediately turned pale!"I..."She glanced at Liam, then turned to look at the other paramedics nearby, opening her mouth but unable to say a word.This time, the woman, having understood the situation, looked as if she had lost everything.There was no longer the slightest hint of the arrogance and insolence she had shown earlier!"Now that you've woken up, are you going to the hospital with us or not?"Looking at the woman, the paramedic continued with his previous question."If we don't go to the hospital, will my mom suddenly have another episode?"The man spoke up."After the epilepsy situation stabilizes, it should be fine for now. Actually, if your mom hadn't acted rashly earlier, it should've been okay," the paramedic glanced at the man and said, "But the condition still exists, and further tr
