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
Taylor cleared her throat, attempting to regain her composure. "How interesting that you and Madison both came from upstairs at the same time. Is something going on between the two of you?," She asked with a hint of curiosity in her tone. Knowing what she was trying to say, Liam furrowed his brow in annoyance."What on earth are you getting at?" He was determined to let Taylor know that there was nothing going on between him and Madison, after all, he didn't want her to start rumours about him and Madison.Taylor had a look of concern on her face. "Don't worry, I'm not one to judge, but a word of advice, be careful with her." She said her eyes fixed on Liam to catch his reaction as she continued, "You know, considering her background and all."Liam's intrigue deepened, his raised eyebrow a clear indicator of his growing curiosity. The fact that Madison seemed to know who Vin was and she also seemed to know who Vins boss was piqued Liam's interest, and Taylor's insinuating only served
With bated breath, he continued to eavesdrop, determined to uncover the secrets they were concealing and the connection between Madison and the dangerous pursuit of the mysterious ring. But already he had understood that even though Madison and whoever it was that was after him, had a very close relationship. And also Madison seemed to be trying to protect him from whoever it was that was after him.Liam, now more than ever, was curious about the ring. What was so important about it, that someone would even send his henchman against him, just to have it? Well, one thing was certain: it was unlike any other ring, stubbornly refusing to part from his hand. Liam glanced at the ring, examining it. He examined it closely, wanting to understand why it was so important and why he couldn't take it off.As he was busy examining the ring in his finger, someone walked over to him, "Were you eavesdropping on my conversation with vin?" Startled by the voice, Liam looked at the person and saw that
After liam had demanded that the man should apologize to the woman he was harassing, the man had no choice but to apologize, knowing that if he doesn't do what Liam says he might have to face the consequences.Without a second thought, the man approached the young woman and humbly said, "Please forgive me, young miss." In response, the woman emitted a scornful snort, her frustration and anger still evident. She delivered a resounding slap across his face, the impact echoing throughout the room, serving as a potent reminder of the distress he had caused her. "That's what you deserve, you old bastard," she seethed in anger.The man clenched his teeth, his pride stinging from the slap. However, he swiftly composed himself, realizing that he was still in Liam's presence. He put on a humble façade and turned to Liam, bowing slightly. "Mr. Danvers, since she has had her revenge already, can I leave now?""Yeah, get out," Liam responded coldly, his disdain for the man evident. The man's acti
People where shocked to see the hotel had been intruded by robbers. But more than that, they were scared for their lives. The lead robber, carrying a gun, barked out another demand, "Everyone, stay still, and no one will get hurt! Just cooperate, and this will be over soon."Nervous whispers filled the room as people exchanged concerned glances. Some attendees began to take off their jewelry and place it in the bag, while others fumbled for their wallets to surrender their cash.Amid the growing tension, people couldn't help but voice their concerns: "How on earth did they get in here?""Where's the security when we really need them?"Karen leaned closer to Liam and whispered, "What should we do?"Liam, keeping his voice low, replied, "Let's stay calm and follow their instructions for now. We don't want to provoke them." Liam was good at fighting, but even he couldn't deal with five armed men as that would be risking his own life and the lives of the other people, so he knew that he
The resounding slap from Karen's hand meeting the robber's cheek reverberated throughout the hotel lobby, cutting through the tension. Gasps of shock rippled through the captive crowd, their wide eyed expressions reflecting disbelief at Karen's audacious act. The room fell into an uneasy silence as everyone watched the unfolding confrontation, their fear momentarily overshadowed by the unexpected resistance displayed by Karen. They wondered what was going to happen to her for slapping the robber.Infuriated by Karen's daring and disrespectful act, the robber's jaw tightened in anger as he glared at her. He raised his hand, intending to retaliate with a slap of his own. But before he could strike Karen, someone intervened by seizing the robbers arm. The robber attempted to free himself from the person's grip, but he couldn't as that person was stronger than him.The person who had seized the robber's arm before he could harm Karen was none other than Liam. Anger blazed in Liam's eyes
