Cara could see the jealousy in Karen's eyes, however she didn't care what Karen might be feeling. Cara always had a crush on Liam. She always liked him from the day when he saved her from two men who wanted to take advantage of her in a cottage. And the two of them seemed to get along after going out on a date, however she and Liam didn't really continue as there was misunderstanding. Erin had lied to Cara telling her lies about Liam, which had caused Cara to look at Liam in a bad light and she had decided that they shouldn't be friends anymore. However after she had realized that Erin had lied about him being a bad person she had regretted that and thought of trying to continue going out with Liam.Unfortunately, by then, Liam seemed to always be in a relationship. First he was in a relationship with Lana, and although it didn't seem like it was anything serious by how quick it ended, this time his relationship with Karen seemed serious, Liam seemed to be very in love with Karen. W
The outburst from the man caught Liam off guard, and he turned to him, giving him a more careful look. The man was of average build, however judging by the way he was dressed he was clearly someone who came from wealth. He dressed himself up in a white suit. His outfit was further decorated with a visible array of jewelry, gold chains, diamond studded rings, and a costly watch that seemed almost excessive. The sheer volume of his accessories suggested that the man was one of those people who loved showing off, making it clear that he was someone who took pride in flaunting his wealth.Liam smiled politely. Although the man had an aggressive tone towards him, Liam didn't let himself get offended by the man, knowing that he was right, he was there first so he should be attended to first. Liam opened his mouth as he was about to reply to him and explain that he didn't mean to cut in line, however before he could get the word out, the barrister already responded to the man.“Sir,” she sai
“Security!” she called out, her voice calm yet commanding at the same time. Within seconds, two burly security guards appeared, moving swiftly to position themselves between Liam and the man.The man, rubbing his cheek and fuming with rage, quickly said: “You’ll regret this,” he growled at Liam, his voice dripping with threats. He couldn't believe that someone was dumb enough to put hands on him, were they trying to ruin their own lives? The man vowed in his heart that he would see to it that the young man who dared to put a hand on him, regretted this action by the end of this incident, and as for the barrister, he would figure out what to do with her later. Looking at both Liam and the barrister the man threatened. “Do you two idiots even know who I am? I AM Richard Cole, the CEO of harbor tech solutions.” He revealed with a prideful and arrogant tone, thinking this revelation would scare Liam or the barrister. “You think you can just lay your hands on me and get away with it?”He
Knowing of what a hole he had dug himself in, Richard Cole quickly tried to backpedal, his voice now a strained attempt at diplomacy. “Mr. Danvers, I-,I’m so sorry. -TThis was all just a misunderstanding. Please, let’s not blow this out of proportion. I had no idea it was you,” he stammered. The man was so nervous that he couldn't even construct a sentence the same way he was a few minutes ago while he was spewing threats, now as he opened his mouth his words fell over each other in his haste to make amends. The crowd watching found it hard to believe that someone as powerful and arrogant as Richard Cole was now begging for forgiveness. But when they realized it was a Danvers he was apologizing to, it all made sense. They knew Liam had the power to destroy Richard’s entire career if he wanted to, Including the business empire he was a CEO of. In that moment, it was obvious to everyone that Richard’s only chance to save himself was to swallow his pride and ask for mercy. It was actual
After dealing with Richard Cole and showing him his place, Liam got his cocktail from the barrister. After some time Liam moved around the yacht, engaging with various attendees and building connections, when he unexpectedly ran into Jeremy. Actually it was Jeremy who had approached him as Liam was deep in conversation with a group of influential business executives. Jeremy had been watching Liam for a while now, waiting for the perfect opportunity to approach him. Jeremy's presence was unmistakable and deliberate.Liam was surprised to see that Jeremy had approached him, nonetheless he was glad that he had approached. Now Liam could have a talk with him and get an idea of who the person who was very obsessed with Karen was, and how to deal with him."Jeremy," Liam greeted him with a polite nod, his tone neutral, though his surprise was evident in his voice"I didn't expect to see you here."Jeremy responded with an arrogant smirk, his voice carrying an air of nonchalance. "Why would
Jeremy staggered backwards from the punch. As he regained his footing, he glared at Liam with a mix of shock and fury. "You! How dare you?" he let out, his voice filled with venom.“Oh my god, what's going on?” Someone in the crowd asked in surprise Did he just hit Jeremy?” someone whispered in disbelief.“Looks like someone is upset.”The crowd was alive with murmurs and speculation, the crowd captivated by the unexpected clash.Liam's expression remained cold as he glared at Jeremy. "Don't talk about her again! Or I'll rip you apart.” He threatened, his tone dangerously icy, sending a shiver down Jeremy's spike.Jeremy gritted his teeth, Infuriated. Without hesitation he lunged at Liam, trying to retaliate. Not knowing anything about Liam, Jeremy thought he stood a chance since he trained in martial arts. However, Liam was ready, watching Jeremy's moves. With a swift and powerful counter, he landed a decisive blow that sent Jeremy crashing into a nearby stand of cocktails. The lou
The tension in the air didn’t go away after the security guards left on the woman's orders. Instead, it shifted, the focus was now squarely on the woman and her unexpected intervention. Jeremy’s face flushed with anger as he realized his control over the situation was slipping. This woman had overruled him in front of everyone, and he could feel the eyes of the guests on him, watching, judging, and expecting to do something to show his authority. After all, he was a member of the Hale family, and it would be humiliating if he couldn’t teach someone who had dared to lay hands on him a lesson, all because of an unexpected intervention.But it wasn’t so simple. The woman who had just arrived was his old sister, and Jeremy knew better than to openly challenge her, especially here, in front of so many influential people. She held more authority than him, and the fact that she could so easily override his decisions made him hesitate. Even though his pride was wounded and his anger boiled j
After some time, Liam and Madelaine decided to get back to the event and rejoin the others. At that time, the photographer was done taking pictures of them and was also about to leave, however he stopped as he wanted to double check that he got good angles of them.As Liam and Madelaine made their way back to the grand hall, the lively atmosphere of the event enveloped them once more. The music and chatter of the guests filled the air, but Liam's mind was still occupied with a lot, particularly he couldn't help feeling like someone was watching him and Madeleine, the whole time as they sat in private. *** A few minutes later, the photographer, who had been stealthily capturing the private moments of Liam and Madelaine, was in a secluded corner near the yacht’s utility area. He reviewed the photos on his camera’s screen, a smug satisfaction on his face. The images displayed Liam and Madelaine in various poses that suggested a closeness that could be misinterpreted by anyone. Anyone w
