Liam let out a heavy sigh, sinking into the soft comfort of his bed. The realization that ever since he had discovered his true identity as a Danvers, a whole new world of enemies and dangers had opened up, weighed on him like an unbearable burden. It was an exhausting and exasperating existence, one he yearned to escape.He longed for the simplicity of a normal life, the privilege of being a wealthy young man without the constant need to glance over his shoulder, the irksome presence of security guards accompanying his every move, and the harrowing near-misses of assassination attempts that seemed to haunt him relentlessly.Despite the relentless challenges and dangers that came with his newfound identity, Liam couldn't deny the allure of the wealth and privilege that now surrounded him. It was so much better than the poverty and misery of his past life, and that made him appreciate the comforts and opportunities that his wealth had brought him, even in the face of adversity. Above a
Elena had not expected to run into Liam today, especially at the club. But since he was there she thought: why not try to get close to him for the sake of her and her step brother's mission? Things would be easier if she was close to him and knew his every move. With those thoughts in mind, Elena attempted to flirt with Liam.Elena leaned in closer, her eyes sparkling with intrigue as she teased, "You know, Liam, I have a confession to make."Liam raised an eyebrow, his curiosity piqued "Oh, really? What's that?" He asked, looking into her eyes.Elena maintained eye contact, a mischievous smile forming at the corners of her lips, "I think you're not just a handsome face. I sense there's more to you than meets the eye." She said in a playful tone.Liam couldn't help but chuckle, finding himself both intrigued and slightly taken aback by Elena's forwardness and unabashed confidence. "Well, Elena, you're quite perceptive. I could say the same about you. There's an air of mystery about yo
Liam's heart pounded as he recognized the dire circumstances. He knew he had to act swiftly to survive this deadly pursuit. Securing his seatbelt tightly, he braced himself for the bumpy and tumultuous ride ahead.Amid the chaos, Liam watched in dismay as the attackers managed to cause the other two Rolls-Royces, carrying his security personnel, to crash. Liam felt a mix of annoyance and concern for his life, at the sight, knowing that his protection had been compromised.Seeing the dangerous situation, Liam's driver pushed the Rolls-Royce to its limits, leaving the SUV that had overtaken them trailing behind. The powerful engine roared as they accelerated through the twisting city streets, speeding through traffic in a desperate attempt to escape their relentless pursuers.But the attackers were relentless and unfazed by the high-speed chase. From one of the SUVs, two masked assailants extended their arms, wielding firearms, and then started shooting at Liam's Rolls-Royce. Gunfire e
.Lana's disapproval deepened as she continued to doubt Liam's words. She regarded him with a disapproving look and scolded, "Liam, stop it. You're disrespecting your parents." She strongly believed in the story that his parents had passed away, and so she couldn't understand why Liam was making up such a story, it sounded false and ridiculous.As Liam and Lana were caught up in their heated conversation, the sudden sound of a car pulling into the parking lot diverted their attention. Turning towards the noise, they saw a sleek Lamborghini gliding into the space nearby.The person inside the Lamborghini turned out to be none other than Megan Danvers.Liam felt a sense of relief when he saw Megan's arrival. He hoped that Megan could assist in persuading Lana that his parents were indeed alive, and that the truth would finally come to light.As Megan stepped out of the Lamborghini and locked it, her gaze fell upon Liam and Lana engaged in conversation. She made her way over to them and
The man was curious to learn what other approach the mysterious lady was going to use to get Liam out of the way, so that she could get what she wanted. "What's the plan ma'am?" He asked, hoping that the woman would answer him, but to his surprise and disappointment she didn't. The mysterious woman tore off her gaze from the man, and looked at the young woman standing before her and asked. "Alright, tell me what you've discovered."The young woman replied "I've been looking into both Megan and Liam's routines. It appears that Megan frequents her boyfriend's house, and occasionally ventures out without her usual security detail. Liam, on the other hand, tends to be more cautious, but he has moments when he's vulnerable." She informed.The mysterious woman listened intently, her mind racing with possibilities. "It matters not that he experiences vulnerable moments," she said, her voice calculated and determined. She continued, "Because I've decided to change my approach. I'll get clos
While a lot of people recognized him, some didn't. Murmurs filled the hotel, as the people who had no idea who Liam was, talked amongst themselves asking each other questions about who the young man was. Even though they didn't know him, they could tell that he came from a rich background, judging by his suit which cost thousands of dollars.As Liam walked further into the hotel, he exchanged polite nods and smiles with familiar faces. Just then, a portly man dressed in an expensive black suit approached Liam and introduced himself. "Mr. Danver, hi, I'm Mister Chen."Liam offered a faint smile, recalling the name. If he remembered correctly, Mr Chen was a successful business man, the founder of a very prestigious company. "Oh, Mr. Chen, the CEO of..." Liam paused as he tried to remember the name of the company, "ChenTech, was it?" Mr. Chen nodded, confirming Liam's memory. "Yes, that's correct. ChenTech," he affirmed with a polite nod.As Liam and Mr. Chen engaged in conversation,
Madison walked away, leaving Liam and Nathaniel to have a conversation. Nathaniel watched as Madison walked away, he didn't even try to hide the lustful glint in his eyes. Only when she had disappeared from his sight did Nathaniel dart his gaze towards Liam, a smile playing on his lips,"She is beautiful, isn't she?" Liam hesitated for a moment, feeling somewhat uncomfortable with the direction of the conversation. He attempted to steer it away from Madison's attractiveness. "Have we met before?" he inquired, hoping to change the subject.Nathaniel replied nonchalantly, "Nope, this is the first time we are meeting Liam." "Well it's nice to meet you, Mr Nathaniel." Liam said with a faint smile.Nathaniel chuckled, his demeanour friendly and approachable. "No need to be formal, Liam. Nathaniel is fine," he said, taking a step closer to Liam. In a low, almost whispered tone, he continued, "How are your parents doing, by the way? It must be very exhausting for them to have to hide from
Liam was both surprised and relieved to see Madison, she had come just at the right time to get him out of the dangerous and potentially life-threatening situation he was in. "What are you doing here?" Liam asked her.Madison met his gaze and replied, "I saw you walking up the stairs with Vin, and I was curious to learn what business you have with him." She glanced at the unconscious man on the floor, her expression a mix of concern and intrigue.Liam appreciated Madison's quick thinking and courage, but something in her words caught his attention. She had referred to the unconscious man as 'Vin.' Showing that she must know who the unconscious man is. Liam furrowed his brow and asked, "Wait, you know who this man is?"Madison hesitated for a moment before responding, "Well, he works for….." Her words trailed off as she seemed to reconsider. With a sigh, she shifted her approach and said, "Look, it's not important, okay? What matters is that he didn't harm you."Liam eyed her suspiciou
