Still keeping his head down in shame, Gary continued speaking to the mysterious figures, informing them about everything that had transpired at the warehouse where he and Salvatore had held Mrs Danvers hostage. “My master, lords, if you would, just give me another chance,I'll get the ring. I'll take it off his dead body if I have to.” He declared, determination filled his voice .The possibility of a rematch with Liam fueled his intentions, especially after the brutal beating he had just endured a while ago.He had faced numerous opponents throughout his life, emerging victorious in every encounter. However, facing Liam proved to be something very unexpected and different. The loss, the relentless beating, it was something he couldn't fathom or accept. The burning desire for redemption burned within him, pushing him to seek another confrontation with Liam and reclaim his standing among his masters.There was silence in the dimly lit room, as if his masters were considering his plea, th
Liam was relieved after hearing that there was a possibility that he could still retain the ring. As his dad left the balcony, Liam returned his attention to the mysterious book. Picking it up, he continued reading. .At that same time the sound of his cellphone ringing, caught his attention, and he quickly reached for his pockets taking it out. When he glanced at the caller ID, he saw that it was Amanda calling him. Pressing the button, the one that said answer, Liam pressed his cellphone to his ear, “Hey, Amanda, how are you doing?” He greeted .“Hey, Liam's I'm doing good.… um, so, it took longer than usual, but it's done, I'm sure the Bennett's will be facing a financial crisis in a few minutes from now.” She informed him.Liam listened intently as Amanda's voice came from the phone, detailing her recent completion of the task he had given her. The task was that she was supposed to find out which companies, or business groups had invested or had partnerships with the Bennett's, a
Liam replied to Nathan's question. “Yes, I'm responsible for the crisis. And as for the reason I'm doing this, you and your sister know why.” He replied coldly, he then continued, his voice laced with sarcasm. "But, don't worry, Nathan. I'm not here to gloat. I just thought you might appreciate a friendly reminder that your little games don't go unnoticed."Liam's words echoed through Nathan's ears, shocked that he had been exposed, and he didn't know how to react to the fact that now the tables had turned. At first it was him trying to prey on the Danvers, but now that he had been exposed, everything had changed.Nathan's blood ran cold, and he quickly tried to deny what Liam was talking about. "What are you talking about, Liam?""Oh, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Your attempts to have my parents killed didn't go as planned, did they? Well, now it's my turn to play." Liam declared, his tone taking on a more cold tone. This time Liam was serious, and he wasn't playing aroun
After disconnecting from his call with Nathan, Liam's attention was once again captured by the enigmatic book, its pages drawing him into its depths. As he delved deeper into its contents, a sense of unease crept over him, a feeling that something was not right. The air around him drastically changed, and it seemed to vibrate with an unseen presence. It was a sensation so different that he could almost feel it brushing against his skin.Liam quickly glanced over his shoulder, his eyes darting around the room in search of the source of his discomfort. But when he looked around, there was no one there, nothing visible to explain the chilling sensation that he felt, in his nerves. He dismissed it as a trick of the mind. Thinking maybe it was his overactive imagination, he forced himself to focus on the book once more.But still, he found that he couldn't focus on the book, that feeling was still there, the feeling of being watched, as if something or someone might just attack him out o
While Liam was stunned by Gary's strength, Gary too, couldn't help getting stunned by the fact that Liam had just moved so quickly and evaded the attack. Gary's surprise at Liam's agility momentarily halted his relentless pursuit. The realization that Liam possessed a speed he hadn't anticipated stunned him, it also made him gaun some respect and admiration for Liam, amidst his determination. However, this newfound revelation only made him want the ring even more. Liam was a formidable opponent according to Gary, and defeating him and taking the ring from him, would surely make his master's and everyone respect him even more. But he also acknowledged that doing that wasn't going to be a simple task, because from their last encounter, Liam seemed to be on another level than him.Though taken aback, Gary's mind was still focused on the task at hand. His fixation on obtaining the ring overshadowed any sense of astonishment. With a quick shake of his head to dispel his momentary dist
As Liam's conversation with the mysterious figure unfolded, an unexpected blow struck him from behind, shrouding his senses in darkness.As consciousness returned to him, his head hurt and felt dizzy as he became aware of his surroundings. Blinking against the dizziness, Liam found himself lying on the sofa, a disoriented fog clouding his thoughts. The memory of the altercation mingled with the confusion of awakening in an unfamiliar position, leaving him grappling with the unsettling gap in his memory. “Hey are you alright?” A voice from his side asked, as he shifted his gaze, his eyes landed on Megan and Mr Danvers, who were standing over him, their faces filled with concern. Liam nodded, looking around him to see Karen standing next to Mrs Danvers. “What happened?” He asked, trying to understand what was going on.“We don't know, you tell us, we just found you laying on the ground.” Mrs Danvers replied with a concerned expression, she glanced around the living room, looking at th
After a thorough examination, Doctor Isabella reviewed the results with a focused expression. "Liam, from what I can see, everything looks perfectly fine. Your vitals are stable, and there don't seem to be any signs of serious injury or concern.”Liam smiled faintly. “That's good news, thank you doctor.” as he finished his words of gratitude, Liam couldn't help feeling guilty when he recalled that other day, when he had accused Isabella of helping her dad plan an attack on his parents. He remembered that he never apologized for that, and he would still feel guilty if he didn't apologize. “Um, so, about, the other day.” Liam began his sentence,But, before he could complete his sentence, Isabella interrupted him with a reassuring gesture. "Don't worry about it, Liam. I understand your reaction. It's perfectly natural to have suspicions given my family's history," she said, her words laced with empathy. Indeed she understood why Liam had thought she might be involved in the attempts on h
“So you two went to the same highschool, and university?” Mrs Danvers asked Liam about Isabella, as he was seated down on the sofa, and she was seated next to him. “But you just didn't recognize her.” She added. Liam nodded. “Yeah, I never really saw her, and I had no idea we went to the same school.” He was still surprised that he went to the same school with someone as beautiful as her, and still never noticed her. Maybe it was because he had a lot in his plate at the time, and had no time to pay attention to anyone.“Well, that explains why she seemed so intrigued when she saw you the first time.” Mrs Danvers said, referring to that time when Isabella had come to check on Mrs Danvers, but upon seeing Liam, she couldn't concentrate on her Job and kept throwing glances in Liam's way, with a look of recognition in her eyes.As Liam and Mrs Danvers continued conversing, Mrs Danvers' expression turned slightly serious as she got to a more serious topic. “Me and your father had a talk
