Liam could sense their skepticism, and he sighed. Eventually, he sat down in front of the trio. "Reaching out to you this time isn't solely about Lana," he began. "But since you don't want to help with me and Lana's matter, that's fine. It's a private matter between her and me, and there's no reason to trouble you guys." Due to David's incident, Billy now despised jerks more than anything in his life. Seeing Liam continue to ramble, he grew more impatient. "Old man, will you ever finish? Just get to the point, okay?""Who are you calling an old man?" A white-haired and well-dressed elderly lady suddenly walked over. Though her tone was stern, her gaze toward the Traffic Light Trio was exceptionally tender. In front of the elderly lady, the trio showed great discretion. They all stood up and looked at Violet with suppressed anger but dared not utter a word."In my presence, he's not qualified to be called an old man," Violet said as she gestured for them to sit. Following that
"Are you afraid?" Kelvin asked provocatively. "Guys, let's get out of the car. Don't bother listening to him talk."Lincoln was bemused. He marveled at how impulsive and straightforward young people were nowadays. In the back seat, Billy used his long legs to kick the driver's seat and urged, "Hey, old geezer. Let us off!" "What?" Lincoln could hardly believe his ears. "Old ... Old geezer?" Lincoln was shocked that they would refer to him as an old geezer when he was a year younger than Liam."Look at the wrinkles on your forehead," Billy said disdainfully. "There are so many of them. "Liam might be an old man, and even if you're just a decade older than him, aren't you still an old geezer?"Lincoln was rendered speechless. He couldn't believe they actually thought he was a decade older than Liam. He felt like he needed a breath of fresh air right now, or he might just pass out."Guys, let's get out. We've arrived." The Traffic Light Trio got off one by one. Although they
Violet trembled with fear when she saw Lincoln. "Lin … Linkin, how about I find you a girlfriend?"Lincoln was momentarily stunned. It had been a long time since Violet had spoken to him so kindly and warmly, especially since Liam and Lana broke up. Lincoln was well aware of the Kane family's temperament. When Violet suddenly treated him so kindly, there must be something she wanted him to do. Lincoln suddenly felt anxious and could only cautiously ask, "Why?"In Violet's mind, there could only be one reason, and it was because Lincoln liked men! However, since Lincoln didn't show it, Violet didn't want to disclose his sexuality and embarrass him. So she casually came up with an excuse, saying, "It's because you're getting older!"Hearing that, Lincoln felt as if he was struck by lightning. He had no clue how many times others had commented on his age that night. He couldn't help but doubt if he really looked that old. Even if Lincoln was growing old, his marriage wasn't som
"I'm not actually helping him," Lana said. Upon hearing Lana's words, Mandy seemed quite relieved. Only then did she dare ask, "Isn't this considered helping him?" Mandy hated Liam to the core. "Don't tell me you don't know what he wants to do to Adrian."Mentioning Adrian again made Lana feel like a long time had passed."I've been with Adrian since we were kids. Marcel always said he had a sinister heart and might not achieve anything in the future. We just didn't expect that he was Balany's pawn, placed by our side since childhood."I think we know how dirty his methods are more than anyone else in Zanteles. In this situation, if Liam wants to deal with Adrian, he can't rely solely on his endless wealth. He has to approach it from other angles."Mandy was unrelenting. "Even so, I don't think you need to help Liam. With his abilities, I believe he can handle driving Adrian out of Zanteles on his own."Lana shook her head. "No, you don't understand Adrian's character. He's no
"Pathetic singleton!"With Violet's backing, Billy shouted at Liam, then happily followed Violet to enjoy dessert.Liam was rendered speechless.He noticed that every time someone more popular than him appeared at home, he would become the one suffering.But these people were important in Lana's life, so he could only endure.Liam could endure, but Lincoln couldn't."Sir, they actually dared to insult you?" Lincoln tried to appear menacing, making a neck-cutting gesture. "Should I go …"Liam took a sip of tea. "Sure, go ahead. Kill them all and avenge me."Now, it was Lincoln's turn to lose composure. "What? K-Kill them?"Liam imitated his neck-cutting gesture. "Didn't you want to kill someone?""I-I didn't say that." Lincoln just wanted to scare Billy and the others. There was no intention to actually kill anyone."Then what are you blabbering about?"With that, Liam went to the dining room to enjoy dessert, leaving Lincoln alone in confusion.In the dining room, the Traf
If Liam remembered correctly, this was the USB drive Lana had always used.Why was it in Billy's hands now?"Boss gave it to me before leaving the country." Billy could tell that Liam had a lot to say, but he just explained briefly, "The data inside is what she sent me via email yesterday. It's related to Adrian."Liam tightened his grip over the pink crystal USB drive as if he could still feel Lana's warmth lingering on it. "Why are you giving me this?"Billy shrugged. "I believe you can make greater use of it than I do."Liam finally smiled. "Thanks."However, the Traffic Light Trio remained in place, staring blankly at Liam.In novels, authors would describe someone's smile as so dazzling that it could blind people. They always thought it was an exaggerated expression.No one's smile could really blind others.But today, the Traffic Light Trio felt the truth behind such a description when they looked at Liam."What's wrong?" Liam noticed them staring at him. "Are you not g
Lana and her parents had been living in this remote country for quite some time now.The climate was excellent, with temperatures never exceeding 86 degrees Fahrenheit year-round. The town was surrounded by lush greenery and blooming flowers, making it a perfect place to settle down.Lately, Lana had grown fond of this place. Every morning after breakfast, she would take a stroll in the nearby park.As she admired the unfamiliar streets and envisioned the appearance of her unborn child, she felt that life here was peaceful and leisurely.One day, after her walk, Lana habitually returned to her study and opened her laptop.Despite being abroad, she never neglected her work. She often handled affairs for Zanteles through her laptop. Today was no exception.However, after Lana opened her laptop and processed the tasks for Lana-Stellar and the spa, she discovered an unfamiliar email address at the end of the list.Lana's email was private, known only to those close to her. So, she i
When Liam contacted Lana under his new identity, trouble struck Dawsbury City.The companies that initially had no intention of collaborating with Adrian were now desperately seeking partnerships.Adrian should be happy that they were willing to lower themselves to cooperate, but he acted aloof. He made them face rejection multiple times before finally agreeing to collaborate.Not only that, Adrian even forced them to sign agreements, preventing them from working with other companies once they joined forces with Balany.And these companies actually willingly signed this agreement, which was simply a great humiliation.It was said that the list of companies eager to cooperate with Adrian was continuously growing.It would be fine if these were all ordinary companies. But they happened to be in manufacturing, aerospace technology, and even communications technologies. Those were fields that every country attached great importance to. It made people begin to doubt the intentions o
