Liam spent the whole day on the terrace, engrossed in the mysterious book, its complex content had captivated his attention, but more importantly it had given him a much-needed escape from the turmoil in his life. But still, as much as he tried to just focus on what he was reading, he couldn't stop his mind from momentarily drifting off. As he turned the pages, he couldn't help but think about Elena and the Simpson family's relentless pursuit of vengeance. While the Simpsons’ relentless pursuit of vengeance didn’t worry him much because he knew the Danvers family could put an end to them if needed. What truly concerned him was Elena. She wasn’t just another adversary he could easily dismiss anymore. She was the mother of his unborn child, and that changed almost everything now. Despite the fact that she was up to no good he didn't know what to do with her.He didn't want to harm her, despite the chaos she was surely going to be causing with Simpson's. If only she could stop with her
As Mr. Edwards ended the call with Liam, he put the phone away, and looked up to see Mr. Reginald Simpson, Elena, and Samuel Simpson all staring at him with expectant expressions. The tension in the room was evident, thickening the air around them.The look in Mr. Simpson's eyes as they met Mr. Edwards' gaze was very, intimidating, a cold and emotionless glare that sent a shiver down Mr. Edwards' spine. He found himself instinctively trying to avert his gaze in fear, feeling like a lump had formed in his throat.“Speak! Did he agree already?” Mr. Simpson asked coldy, his tone authoritative and his eyes narrowing with impatience.Mr. Edwards sighed, a hint of disappointment evident in his demeanor. After the call with Liam, it felt as if Liam wasn't very excited or interested in the deal, and that worried Mr Edwards a bit, knowing that if the deal isn't finalized he might not get paid a penny. “No… not yet.” He shook his head slightly, avoiding direct eye contact with anyone. “You co
Upon hearing Amanda, Liam raised his eyebrow, wondering what Erin could be up to. "What's she doing now?" he asked, though he could already guess what she was up to, and the reason why. He had noticed her increasing frustration with his authority to approve or deny what roles she would be getting. And it was something she had openly complained about the previous day when she was in his office.And it was honestly understandable to Liam that she would be frustrated by him having the authority to approve or not approve what acting roles she got. Her and Liam didn't get along at all for various reasons, and ever since he became the CEO of multiversal studios, she always felt threatened by him having that much authority over her career. What if he used it to try and ruin her career? Knowing that he had the power to do some damage to her career, she knew she had to do something about it. Amanda sighed before replying, "She's been speaking to the board, trying to undermine your decisions.
As she walked into her office Karen let out a weary sigh. She walked over to her desk, taking a seat on her leather chair. As she leaned backwards her mind was filled with a lot of thoughts and worries. And this time her sadness and worries didn't stem from the fact that she felt like Liam had cheated her, but because of something she had just found out earlier that morning.Recently she had just found out something that broke her heart, even more than she already was.She received a call earlier from the hospital, informing her that due to the incident where she had gotten shot, she had a problem. The bullet had caused severe internal damage, and as a result, she would never be able to have children. Even though she wasn't planning on having any children with Liam yet, the news hit her hard, making her even more sad. Plus she was also very worried about her relationship with Liam now. Knowing that she couldn't have children, meaning she would never be able to give Liam the family th
Liam pulled up outside Karen's workplace, his mind still heavy with concern for her. He was determined to address the ongoing issues she was allegedly facing. He couldn't help to feel like this had something to do with him and the fact that he was the father of Elena's unborn child. Perhaps that was the reason she was sad. Liam felt even worse every time he saw how his drunken mistake with Elena had affected his relationship with Karen. Filled with regret, he wished he had done things differently back then, maybe preventing this mess. Yet, at the time, he hadn't known if he would ever be with Karen, making it hard to accept that this was entirely his fault.As he sat there in the car, Liam spotted Karen walking out of the building, making her way towards her parked car. She was looking stunning as usual, dressed in a tailored navy suit that complemented her confident demeanor. Her hair was perfectly styled, and despite the worry lines on her face, she exuded an air of elegance and c
Nathan and his companions walked into the café, concealing firearms. Liam and Karen were still seated in the cafe, waiting for their order, when they noticed four people enter the café. They were all dressed in black hoodies. Their suspicious demeanor caught Liam's attention, particularly one who kept looking around as if searching for witnesses, his hand in his pocket as if holding onto something. Seeing that, Liam was already on high alert. The way they were moving suggested that they weren't there to dine but had some other motives. Liam scanned the men's faces, and to his surprise, he recognized one of them, a man dressed in black jeans and a hoodie, with a beard. The man was none other than Nathan Bennet, Elena's brother. Seeing Nathan among the group, Liam's heart picked up pace as he realized how serious this was. Nathan had always been a threat to the Danvers family for a while now, harboring a deep grudge. And ever since the Danvers family had made the Bennet's go into b
When Nathan suddenly aimed the gun at Karen, Liam's heart pounded in his chest as he feared for her life. His expression quickly turned grim, a dark frown forming on his face. His first thought was to jump on Nathan and disarm him, which would have been easy enough for Liam, since he had supper speed, however he immediately stopped himself, knowing that there was still a chance he might not be able to move fast enough before Nathan could pull the trigger. And even if he was able to disarm Nathan his companions were still armed and they might be able to pull the trigger. “Nathan, stop!” he commanded, his tone icy but with a hint of fear. “I'll do anything you want, just put the gun away.”It was only natural that he would be afraid after seeing a weapon pointed at Karen. She meant so much to him, and he was afraid that Nathan might pull the trigger. A smirk made its way to Nathan's lips, as he removed his finger from the trigger and put the gun down on the table. Liam's reaction af
Seated in the back of the car, with his hands tied and his face blindfolded by the hood, Liam was occupied with a lot of thoughts going through his head, thinking of a way to get out of the situation without Karen getting harmed. She was the only reason he hadn't stomped Nathan and his friends, because he didn't want to risk her getting hurt. Nathan and his friends were all pointing guns at them, and had he acted in any way, there was a possibility that they might have shot her. However, this was the perfect chance for him to get Karen and himself out of this mess, because they didn't have anyone pointing guns at them. With ease, Liam managed to break free of the rope that was trying his hands. It was very easy for him, since he had super strength. After doing that, he reached for Karen's hands, as she was seated beside him in the car. Feeling Liam's touch on her hand, Karen flinched in fear, suspecting that one of the goons was touching her.Gently, Liam squeezed Karen’s hand to le
Hi everyone, This marks the end of Billionaire Son-in-Law and Liam's journey. I hope you enjoyed the ending and that it met your expectations. If not, I truly apologize. Thank you for following this story to the end. Your support means a lot to me. I'd also like to thank my editor for their continued promotion of the book. If you liked this novel, I encourage you to check out my new book, The Invisible Heir. I'm confident you'll enjoy it. Lastly, there's a possibility I might write another book in the same universe as billionaire son in-law, but I can't make any promises. But if I did, Liam Danvers and other familiar characters might make an appearance. Thank you again for your support. Best regards.
More than 7 years later passed….The Danvers manor was alive with celebration. Rays of sunlight poured through the wide, open windows, bathing the grand hall in golden glow. The warmth of the sun mixed with the light of chandeliers overhead, created a dreamlike ambiance.Balloons of blue, white, and gold floated on the ceiling, their ribbons trailing down. Laughter echoed from every corner of the big mansion. Children’s giggles mixed together with the clatter of plates, the clinking of glasses, and the soft melody of music playing in the background. The air was filled with the scent of vanilla cake and fresh flowers.“Make a wish, sweetheart,” Rachel said softly, parting the little boy infront of her on the head.A child, no older than six, sat in front of a cake, his cheeks turning red and his face glowing with excitement. The flames of the birthday candles reflected in his eyes. He squeezed his eyes shut tight, holding his breath as he thought long and hard about his wish, like it
Meanwhile...Liam, Adriana, Blackthorn, and the others stepped cautiously into a vast, faintly lit corridor. The air was cold despite the fact that they were indoors and there were flames from iron sconces lighting up the long and narrow corridor. “What is this place?” Liam muttered, his gaze scanning the ancient architecture. It wasn’t modern, no electricity or anything. Infact this looked like it was a completely different world, from the one he lived in. It looked like something pulled straight from a medieval times movie.At that moment, the clatter of hundreds of hurried footsteps echoed down the corridor, sharp and growing louder with every second. Heads turned toward the sound, eyes narrowing in readiness.“They know we’re here,” Adriana muttered, stepping forward with purpose. Her stance shifted as she reached over her shoulder, drawing a sleek, double-edged sword from its sheath on her back. The cold steel shined in the faintly lit corridor. Ignoring the gun strapped to her
The large room was faintly lit. The mysterious members of the shadow council were gathered around the throne-like chair where the Supreme Master sat. The chamber had the ghostly stillness of a forgotten era, its design nothing like the modern time. No modern features decorated the space, only stone walls, iron sconces holding bright flames, and a cold floor of dark granite.It felt like a place pulled straight from medieval times. Even the guards by the entrance wore attire resembling that period. The only figure out of place was Mr. Simpson, dressed in a green suit and black shoes, a bug difference to the world around him.Simpson stood before the council, his head lowered as he delivered the news of yet another one of his failures."Liam Danvers has escaped," he announced, his voice casual but cautious. "We– we believe his family played a role in his escape."Silence followed. It was thick. Unforgiving. And scary. Simpson felt a shiver run down his spine, just from anticipating wha
Eventually, they stopped at a large set of double doors. One of the men stepped forward, twisting the handle before pushing them open.Liam's eyes narrowed as he stepped inside. The room was larger than he expected, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the forest below. His eyes scanned the room. His movements slowed when he spotted familiar faces. Adriana, George, and a few other agents from Adriana's organization standing around. Blackthorn was in conversation with Adriana and George, their expression business-like.“Hi, what’s going on?” Liam asked, his gaze wary, calculating.He’d always thought Blackthorn and Adriana’s people didn’t get along. Seeing them together now, standing like allies or partners, didn’t sit right. Suspicion crept into his mind.“Glad you could make it, Danvers,” Blackthorn said with a grin. “I must apologize for the way you got out of prison. But I promise, it was your friend's idea, not mine.”Adriana nodded. “We asked him to break you out. The Shado
"What do you mean he escaped?" Simpson barked into the phone, his grip so tight in anger the phone creaked, like it might break."The station was attacked, sir," the chief of police stammered nervously. "Multiple officers down. By the time we regained control, Danvers was gone."Simpson’s nostrils flared as he slammed his hand on the armrest of his seat in the limousine. He felt a sweat from in his forehead as he thought about how he would explain this to the Shadow council. He didn't want to face their wrath for this. "Then find him and arrest him, I don’t care how—lock down the city if you have to.""Yes, sir. Units are moving now," the officer replied hurriedly.Simpson ended the call with a sharp tap, his gaze hard and unblinking. Edward seated across from him in the limo, couldn't help asking. "What the hell happened?" "Liam Danvers escaped." Edward's eyes shot up in shock. Weren't they just talking to Liam Danvers in the holding cell not even 2 hours ago, so how did this happ
Liam turned slowly and walked back to the cold, hard bench. He lowered himself onto it, letting out a long, controlled exhale before lying down. The cold surface pressed against his back, familiar now after a week in this miserable cell. It was like this place had become his second home, one he’d never asked for. No amount of influence or wealth from his family had been enough to get him out. The courts had refused him bail, and even the chief of police had played along with it. Well the bastard was getting paid by Mr Simpson and the people he was working with, so of course he was going to play along with it. Liam closed his eyes, he was stuck here, with every sign pointing to the fact that he’d be here for a long time. It was suffocating, inescapable. Worse still, the allegations against him were serious enough to warrant a life sentence. The thought stayed at the back of his mind.Liam sat up abruptly, his elbows resting on his knees, as he recalled Simpsons last words as he left
On the other hand, Edwards snickered at Liam's threats, "Still acting tough, huh? I guess it’s true what they say. Pride comes before the fall." He took a step closer, standing shoulder to shoulder with Simpson. "Thing is, Danvers, this fall? It’s a long one. And you? You’ve got no parachute." Simpson leaned into the bar, his eyes filled with cruelty. "You're done for, Danvers, and so is your family's dominance. As you can see, your family isn't as powerful as it used to be. The Simpsons are the new power in town now,” he said with a twisted grin. “And soon, I'll make sure there are no Danvers left. I'll make sure every single last one of you Danvers is wiped off the face of the Earth.” From the way he said it, it sounded like was making a promise to murder his family and he meant it, which made Liam enraged deep down.Liam rose from the bench, slow and deliberate. He walked towards the bars, stopping inches away, his eyes locked onto Simpson's. His calm demeanor had evaporated now,
Days dragged by slowly for Liam. A week had passed, and he was still locked up in the holding cell. His family had done everything in their power to get him out on bail, but they had failed. Despite their immense influence and authority, it seemed they had been overpowered this time by Mr. Simpson and whoever was backing him.Liam wasn't surprised when his family informed him that Mr. Simpson, in collaboration with some mysterious organization, was behind it all, along with Elena and Nathan.The mastermind behind the entire scheme to frame him for these crimes, however, was none other than Elena. She had even devised the plan to have him accused of assaulting Selena, ensuring his reputation was already tarnished before they delivered the final blow.Liam didn’t know how he was going to deal with Elena. She was the mother of his unborn child, but she was also his enemy. It was because of her that he was sitting in this cell, facing serious allegations. He already knew how he would hand
