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
Liam and Karen decided to stay inside the car and not escape. Although they had the opportunity to escape, they didn't, since Karen was afraid. Which was understandable, seeing as the car was moving too quickly and she would be risking her life if she were to jump out.As the two of them, stayed inside the car waiting for the car to slow down, the minutes stretched into what felt like hours, the tension evident. Eventually, the vehicle slowed down. As the vehicle slowed and came to a stop, the interior of the car grew darker. Seeing as it had gotten darker, Liam could sense that they had entered a new environment. The car then started moving again, but this time the sound of the engine echoed off close walls, and the light from outside disappeared completely, replaced by dim lighting. Liam realized they had driven inside a building, some kind of warehouse. The car moved forward a few more feet before coming to a final stop. A loud, metallic sound echoed through the space as the war
In an instant, Liam and Karen were surrounded by goons. There were about five of them, one on each side and three standing behind them. Liam and Karen quickly turned to face the person who had called out to them, their hearts pounding. As they turned, they saw Nathan standing behind them, flanked by two huge men. One of them had tattoos stretching from his neck to his face. The tattooed goon was carrying a big wrench while the other one wielded a baseball bat. Stepping closer to where Liam and Karen were, Nathan smirked, a sinister glint in his eyes. Liam's escape plan had failed, and it gave Nathan so much joy to see the look in Liam's eyes. Nathan was thinking that Liam must have realized by now that this time there was nothing he could do to save himself. "Thought you could escape, did you?" Nathan taunted.Liam didn't reply to Nathan's taunts, instead he positioned himself protectively in front of Karen. “Get behind me,” he said, his voice steady. He wanted her to get behind
Within seconds Liam had managed to defeat Nathan's goons. Nathan's eyes widened in shock, he couldn't believe what he had just witnessed. When he had instructed his men to attack Liam, he was convinced that they would get the job done, after all they outnumbered him five to one. However, to his shock, being outnumbered didn't stop Liam as he had easily turned the tables. In fact, it was a one-sided fight as he defeated the five goons within seconds. Nathan couldn't help being amazed and shocked at the same time. He had never seen anyone as skillful as him before. Liam's speed was almost supernatural; it was actually unbelievable and inhuman.To Nathan and the two goons standing besides him, Liam seemed more like a force of nature than a man, his movements so swift and precise that they were inhumanKaren who was taking cover behind some crates was also in awe after she had just witnessed Liam incapacitate each thug. Now she was more hopeful that they could get out of the situation. N
Karen and Liam were seated in the back of a cab, as it drove at moderate speed through the quiet night streets, taking them home after leaving the warehouse were Nathan had planned to keep them captive. However his plans failed as he was defeated by Liam.The events of a few hours ago replayed in Liam's mind, and he felt very relieved, mostly because he had gotten Karen out of danger. He glanced at Karen, as she was seated beside him. He was very grateful that she was safe.As for Nathan, Liam and Karen had made sure he didn't get away with what he did, handing him over to the police. And unlike previous times, this time he was going to do anything in his power to make sure he stays locked up and can never cause a danger to the Danvers family again. Back in the warehouse, Liam had thought about ending Nathan's threat permanently, but Karen had stopped him before he could do anything rash advising him that it was best to just hand Nathan over to the police, which they did. Another rea
Upon arriving at Mr. Blackthorn's estate, Liam exited the car and started walking towards the gate, accompanied by Mr. Blackthorn's agents. The grandeur of the estate was impressive, with tall gates and meticulously kept grounds. The agents, Owen and his partner flanked him as they accompanied him inside the estate to meet their boss. Liam found their presence unsettling, especially the woman she had an aura around her.As they approached the gate, the agents exchanged nods with the security guards stationed there. The security guards at the gate were dressed in hooded cloaks, with sword strapped to their backs. They looked mysterious and dangerous at the same time. With a soft creak, one of the security guards opened the gate, allowing them to enter the estate.On the other side, Liam saw Mr Blackthorn waiting for them, standing near a decorative fountain, his posture relaxed. A small smile played across his lips as he watched Liam approach.‘Liam Danvers, welcome," Mr. Blackthorn s
Upon leaving Mr. Blackthorn's estate, Liam drove to Multiversal Studios, his thoughts still filled with the recent conversation he had just had with Mr Blackthorn. He had no idea what Mr Blackthorn's intentions were, but he suspected they weren't exactly good, judging by how suspicious he As he reviewed the discussion in his mind, he carefully examined every detail, every word exchanged and every subtle hint of Mr Blackthorn's behavior. It became clear to Liam that Mr Blackthorn seemed intent on keeping the ring with himself once they retrieved it from the Shadow Council. However, Liam was worried about his intentions with it, as he couldn’t afford to let the ring fall into the wrong hands again. And even if Mr. Blackthorn didn’t give off suspicious energy, Liam still wouldn’t accept that once they get the ring back he would give it to him, because the ring was a family heirloom. It had been in the family for centuries, passed on from generation to generation as a symbol of their li
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
