Etchen was immediately stunned.

He widened his eyes and shouted, "What the hell are you doing?! He's just a worthless ex-convict, not some Grandmaster! You've got it all wrong."

Before Etchen could finish speaking.

Smack!

A fierce slap landed heavily on his face.

"Who do you think you are to disrespect Grandmaster Burrey?" Lucy withdrew her hand as she gazed at him icyly.

What?

Etchen was dumbfounded. He never dreamed that before he could finish his sentence, he would be greeted with a slap! However, the fiery sting on his face incessantly reminded him that this was all too real!

As the young heir of the Lloyd family in South City, he never imagined that he would be slapped by a woman! How could Etchen endure such humiliation?

"How dare you hit me?" He raised his head abruptly and angrily.

"So what if I hit you?" Lucy looked down on him, not taking Etchen seriously at all.

"There is no 'Grandmaster Burrey' you're looking for here, only a worthless ex-convict! But do you know who I am?" Etchen's face twisted in fury as he yelled.

No one dared to treat him like this in the entire South City, let alone a woman! The woman in front of him had no idea who she had provoked!

However, before Etchen could make any other move.

Smack! Smack!

Two more fierce slaps landed on his face!

Lucy looked down coldly and said, "I said disrespecting Grandmaster Burrey is deserving of a punishment!"

Etchen's face was visibly swollen. He covered his face, staring at Lucy in disbelief. He was about to go crazy!

Normally, it was always Etchen who bullied others. When had he ever encountered such humiliation? Within just a few minutes, he had been slapped three times in a row by a woman!

Moreover, he did not even know who this 'Grandmaster Burrey' was that Lucy mentioned!

"You despicable woman! You're dead! You're absolutely dead!" Etchen's face contorted in fury, almost losing his sanity. He pointed at Lucy and Liam, as if to pull out his phone. "You're all dead! And you worthless piece of trash, how dare you just get out of prison and bring such despicable women from outside to disrespect me! I'll make you pay, you b*stard!"

Lucy immediately furrowed her brows. She glanced back at the bodyguards behind her.

In an instant, the bodyguards rushed forward, swiftly pinning Etchen to the ground.

"I can't control what you say, but you'll pay the price for every word you speak." Lucy smiled lightly, her beauty mark at the corner of her mouth exceptionally alluring.

Then, she turned her head, respectfully looking at Liam, and tentatively asked, "Grandmaster Burrey?"

"It's up to you to handle him." Liam gave Etchen a cold glance.

"Thank you, Grandmaster," Lucy smirked and said, turning her head to look at Etchen.

"What are you doing? What are you all doing!" Etchen finally realized something was wrong. He shouted loudly, "Let go of me! Who gave you the guts to do this to me? How dare you treat me like this? You all want to die, is that it!"

Hailey also became anxious, shouting beside him, "Let go of my son! Let me tell you, if my son gets hurt in the slightest, you're done for!"

However, no matter how Hailey yelled, no one paid any attention to her.

At the next moment, Lucy said with a smirk, "Break his leg."

"What? Let go of me! Let go of me! How dare you do this to me!" Etchen's eyes widened suddenly, and he began to struggle violently.

However, there was no time for him to react.

The bodyguards on both sides acted immediately.

Crack!

The sound of bones breaking resounded, and Etchen's leg was bent at a 45-degree angle!

He let out a scream like a slaughtered pig. "You bitch, just wait, you're dead!"

However, at the next moment…

Crack!

Another crisp sound could be heard.

Etchen collapsed directly to the ground, unable to make any sound anymore, trembling incessantly!

Lucy looked at Etchen and said, "My name is Lucy Hill. I'll be waiting for you."

    "Where did you come from? Where did this crazy woman come from!" Hailey's face went pale with fright. When she saw Etchen lying on the ground, contorting in pain, she screamed even louder. She felt her heart being torn apart. "How dare you beat my son! You crazy woman, you're finished!" She was yelling like a mad dog as she continued, "You dare provoke the Lloyd family. I'll make sure none of you have a good end!""And you! You useless piece of trash!" Hailey turned her head towards Liam, ranting furiously, "Now I finally understand the situation. No wonder you divorced Serena without a care in the world. It turns out you found another woman to support you right after you got out of prison!"You shameless thing! Shameless to the core! You are addicted to living off others. You even found a slut to harm the Lloyd family. Let me tell you, none of you will escape!" Hailey continued to hurl insults."Heh." Lucy suddenly chuckled. She had never seen such a shrew cursing before."Lau

    Hailey hastily helped up Etchen and limped toward the door. They were so arrogant when they first arrived, but they left as a disheveled pair. Yet, just before stepping out, Hailey glanced back at Liam and Lucy. There was a mixture of venom and hatred. She exclaimed as soon as she was out, "I knew this useless waste had an audacious streak! Turns out, he got involved with this despicable woman. He even watched as I was humiliated and as Etchen had his leg broken!""He's addicted to living off women!" Hailey gritted her teeth, her voice dripping with scorn. "Heartless and despicable, he even dared to call me 'mom' before! Sooner or later, I'll make him repay every bit of suffering he's caused me!"And that despicable woman, don't think you can escape! Thinking you can do as you please just because you have a few bodyguards? How dare you challenge our Lloyd family in South City, acting so arrogantly! I'll ensure you regret ever setting foot in this world!" she continued.She saw t

    As Liam and Lucy were on the road, something was unfolding at South City's Golden Cross Hospital.Hailey held Etchen in the lobby, hurling curses left and right."Do you even know who I am? I'm Serena Lloyd's mother from the Lloyd family! I've had dinner with your hospital director! Have you seen how injured my son is? What gives you the right to deny him admission?! Let me tell you, if anything happens to my son because of your delay in treatment, I won't spare any of you!"With hands on her hips, she continued unabated, "Do you all not care about your careers anymore?""Madam, we understand your situation and are not denying your son admission. Your son's injuries may look severe, but they are not critical. He can receive adequate treatment in a regular ward," intervened Gunter, the hospital's administrative manager. "What regular ward?! Do you even understand who we are? Do you think a regular ward can provide the best medical care for my son? Let me tell you, we demand a VIP

    "I have no idea," Ronald said as he shook his head."Forget it. If we can't stay, we will just leave," Hailey said."Staying in a regular ward won't make much of a difference. The director, Mister Lopez, has already arranged a doctor for us!" Hailey's eyes darted around as she came up with another idea. "Ronald, do you think we might have a chance to meet the VIP staying in the intensive care unit of this hospital?""We'll see about that," Ronald said, shaking his head. Despite the considerable status of the Lloyd family, staying in the same hospital as the big shot in the special care ward did not necessarily guarantee a meeting. However, he did not voice these thoughts to Hailey. "Right now, the most important thing is to get you and Ethen treated!""There sure have been a lot of big shots from the capital lately," Hailey muttered.Speaking of big shots from the provincial capital, she could not help but recall the dozen or so Maybachs with provincial license plates parked d

    As Liam made her way to Julian's hospital room, Serena rushed to the hospital in a fluster. Serena pushed open the door to the ward and saw Etchen lying on the hospital bed. His legs were encased in plaster, and his face contorted in agony. On the other side, Hailey lay on another bed, groaning incessantly.It was supposed to be a single occupancy room, yet Hailey, despite not suffering severe injuries, had somehow managed to secure another bed. According to the doctor's diagnosis, Etchen's fractures were not severe, but due to the extensive area of injury, he was covered with a large plaster cast. It was a rather daunting sight. Meanwhile, Hailey continued to moan in pain.Serena's eyes welled up. "Mom! Etchen! How did you both get hurt like this?""Ouch, it hurts so much!" Hailey's groans intensified upon noticing Serena's presence.Turning to face Serena with a face full of grievance, Hailey said, "Serena, I have been beaten up, Etchen's legs are both broken, and you only ju

    "What did it mean injustice? There is no injustice! I only wish the best for you! Besides, just by seeing you today, I knew there must be a lot going on at the company lately. Didn't I hear the other day that something important is happening at the company?" Hailey waved her hands insincerely."You focus on the company's affairs first. We'll wait on our plans with Etchen.""Yes! Serena, the Hill Group hosts a conference once every five years, and it's coming up in a few days. That's what matters most!"At that moment, it seemed like Ronald suddenly recalled something."We owe everything we have in the Lloyd family to the support of the Hill Group! We've never had the chance to meet anyone from the Hill family in person. This annual meeting is a perfect opportunity!" Ronald's face became solemn."Absolutely! The Hill Group's annual meeting is of utmost importance. We must not neglect it! Our breakthroughs in the Lloyd Corporation depend heavily on the Hill family!""You go ahead a

    While Layla spoke for Liam in the ordinary ward, Liam and Lucy had already entered the special care ward.Inside the ward, silence reigned. Only the faint hum of medical instruments could be heard. Julian lay quietly on the bed with tubes protruding from his body. In just three short days, the once spirited elder had withered, his breath barely perceptible.In the room, besides Julian, there was another elderly man with snowy white hair. He stooped over Julian's bed, earnestly observing his condition. However, in the end, he straightened up and let out a heavy and solemn sigh."Miss, this is Professor Harker from Asterion. He contacted him about this as well."As Lucy entered the ward, another servant from the Hill family approached her and whispered, "Yesterday, Mister Harker was delayed due to another surgery. He rushed here as soon as he arrived in South City today, saying he wanted to check on the Mister Hill Senior's condition."Upon hearing the voice behind her, Professor Ha

    "What?" Lucy's eyes widened instantly. She had no idea that her grandfather's condition had deteriorated to such an extent! It had only been three days!"How could it be that bad?" Lucy panicked. Although the Hill family was still functioning normally at the moment, Lucy was responsible for half of the family's business. However, the real linchpin of the Hill family lay in the man lying in bed!"Miss Hill, if you hadn't asked, I doubt anyone would have informed you. Based on my observations just now, the various indicators within Mister Hill's body have reached dangerously critical levels, and his organs are already showing signs of failure." Jimmy sighed."According to the previous examination results, including the fact that the old man's condition has deteriorated to this extent in such a short time, I deduce that he has been poisoned!"But in order to attempt treatment, we must locate the poison, which we have no way of doing."We don't even know the composition of the poi

"Liam really isn’t like the rumors say.""I honestly think that being with him is an honor for our Hensworth family. Please, you have to trust me!" she pleaded desperately."Grandpa just had a chat with Liam earlier. Why don’t you ask him? Doesn’t he also think Liam is great? He’s truly amazing. Everything I know about him barely scratches the surface!"As she spoke, Valerie turned her gaze to Sebastian, seeking his support.What she wanted to convey to Charles and Janell was not just about seeking their approval for her to be with Liam.At this point, Valerie only wanted to clear Liam’s name!"Sigh..."Hearing her words, Sebastian let out a deep sigh.He raised his head to look at Charles, his tone softening slightly.

    Hearing Valerie's voice, Liam could not help but turn his head, looking at Valerie with surprise in his eyes. Although he knew that her current actions were merely an excuse to avoid marrying that Mister Nosh, her performance truly startled him. If it were not for the prior agreement between him and Valerie, he would have almost believed what she was saying was true. Valerie's acting skills were indeed exceptional.As for the Hensworth family's prejudices, Liam did not care. He was well aware that, thanks to the propaganda from the Lloyd family, his reputation in South City was hardly good. However, none of this could affect him. A dragon soaring high in the sky would never be concerned about the buzzing of flies. But it seemed that the rumors from the Lloyd family were causing some trouble for Valerie. Liam had actually thought about this initially. However, when he first agreed to meet Valerie's parents, he genuinely believed that he just needed to show up and everything w

    He immediately turned his head to look at Sebastian and said, "At your age, you usually have the best perspective. What happened this time? Why do you trust someone you just met so much?"That's because you didn't see the performance of this kid just now!"Sebastian was very dissatisfied with Charles's words. He patted his waist and said, "If it weren't for this kid just now, I wouldn't be able to stand up until now! He wants to teach me a set of boxing techniques that can heal my old man's back injury. Can you do that?""This…"Hearing Sebastian's words, Charles was taken aback. He really did not know that so much had happened just now. Charles was not a foolish person stuck in his ways. Seeing Sebastian's attitude, he could still determine that the young man in front of him had some ability.However, even so, Charles's thoughts did not change."What's your name?" Charles turned his head to look at Liam and asked. This was the first time he had inquired about Liam's name since e

    "It's probably because Valerie didn't want to expose our relationship too much before."Liam shook his head.In fact, he felt helpless too. After all, just ten minutes ago, he had agreed to Valerie's request to pretend to be her boyfriend.Charles might have heard about him somewhere before. At most, it was probably back when they were in school, listening to Valerie talk about herself.Upon hearing Liam's answer, Charles's expression grew even darker.He looked at Valerie with dissatisfaction, then turned back to Liam, straightforwardly asking, "What do you do for a living, and what does your family do?""Charles, how can you talk like that!"Seeing this scene unfold before him, Sebastian's voice rang out first before Liam could respond."This young man is quite capable; he just helped me with my waist injury. After all, he is Valerie's boyfriend, so you should speak more politely!"He shot an unhappy glance at Charles."I…"Hearing this, Charles was taken aback, and a look

    Sebastian no longer harbored much doubt about Liam's words. Looking at the scene before her, Valerie's face was filled with astonishment. She had never imagined it.Aside from being knowledgeable in medicine, Liam also knew martial arts! This revelation sparked intense curiosity in Valerie's heart. Hadn't he been in prison for a few years? How did he come out not only with such an extraordinary background but also with skills in both medicine and martial arts?The key point was that Valerie knew her grandfather, Sebastian, very well. Although he appeared kind and gentle, he actually had high standards! She had never seen anyone, except Liam, who could make Sebastian so satisfied upon their first meeting.Unfortunately… Liam was not actually her real boyfriend. Valerie lowered her head slightly, her eyes dimming a bit.However, at the moment, no one seemed too focused on Valerie. Sebastian eagerly began asking Liam about martial arts.

    This scene left Valerie astonished!Back at the class reunion, she had already been quite shocked by the hints of Liam's extraordinary background. But now, she was discovering that Liam even knew medicine?"It's just a little knowledge," Liam said with a faint smile in response to Valerie's remark."Kid, what you said just now matches my situation perfectly." At that moment, Sebastian's voice rang out as he looked straight at Liam. "Your medical skills seem far from just ‘a little' knowledge!""It's just a bit of understanding," Liam replied humbly, shaking his head."I don't care what you really understand!" Sebastian continued. "Since you're Valerie's boyfriend, that makes us family!"Waving his hand, Sebastian said, "I won't be polite with you. Since you noticed my back pain, you must have some understanding of it! Do you perhaps have any way to relieve this old back pain of mine?"He sighed deeply. "For years now, this back pain has really been the bane of my existence!""T

    In the villa's yard, an elderly man with a lean frame and vibrant spirit was holding a shovel, tending to the plants and flowers in the garden. Hearing a sound from outside, he lifted his head and, upon seeing Valerie, instantly revealed a warm smile."Valerie, you're back?" he said, stretching his back as he stood up. "I've already talked to your parents! If you don't want to get married, you don't have to. Our Hensworth family hasn't fallen to the point where we need to rely on selling off our granddaughter to advance!""No need to be too upset with your parents," he added, looking at her with a fond smile."Grandpa!" Valerie replied playfully upon hearing his words.The elderly man, tending to the garden, was Sebastian Hensworth, Valerie's grandfather, and the one who initially established the foundation of the Hensworth family."Oh? So our Valerie wasn't lying after all!"At that moment, Sebastian finally noticed Liam standing behind Valerie. He froze for a moment, then his s

    "This..."Hearing this, Liam was momentarily stunned.When he first arrived, he thought something must have gone wrong with Valerie's family. He really had not expected it to be this! No wonder Valerie had said over the phone that only he could help her now!"Liam, I really don't want to be with that Mister Nosh..."Seeing Liam's reaction, Valerie's bright eyes reddened again, showing her disappointment.Valerie had always been lively and passionate, with a love for freedom since childhood. This time, in addition to her parents pressuring her quite harshly, there was another reason: she had someone in her heart that she truly liked! Otherwise, she would not be feeling so resistant and helpless against her family's arrangement."Then... alright."Seeing this, Liam could only sigh helplessly and nod. He could tell that Valerie truly had no other options in this situation."You're agreeing to help me?"Hearing Liam's words, Valerie suddenly looked up, her beautiful eyes lightin

    "What's wrong?"Hearing this, Liam furrowed his brow."Can we… talk in person?"Valerie replied in a low voice, her tone even faintly tinged with a bit of a sob."Then let's meet at the café on Southeast Avenue," Liam said after a pause.A moment later, outside the café on Southeast Avenue.Just after getting out of the taxi, Liam noticed the Porsche Cayenne parked by the entrance.He pushed open the door and went inside.There, he saw Valerie already seated. Her delicate and pretty face was filled with dejection, and her bright eyes were slightly red.Clearly, Valerie had just been crying."What's going on?"Sitting in front of her, Liam narrowed his eyes slightly and asked.In his memory, Valerie had always been a positive and optimistic girl; he had rarely seen her look this down."Liam…"Seeing him appear, Valerie lifted her head, her gaze trembling, showing a sense of helplessness."What exactly is going on?"Seeing this, Liam frowned and said, "Whatever you're goi
