What frightened Daxton the most was that he could tell from Calum's might that he was more powerful than the bodyguard. It even made a thought pop into Daxton's mind—the bodyguard was not on the same level as Calum at all. He was nothing compared to Calum.Daxton's mind went blank as soon as he thought of that.Meanwhile, Daxton understood that he was mistaken. Liam was more than he led on. How could a man with such a powerful person following beside him be the loser that everything said he was?Daxton knew he already offended Liam. If he did not kill both Liam and Calum, then he would be the person who would end up dead.Thinking of that, Daxton wiped off the sweat on his forehead. Then, he pointed at Liam and Calum and bellowed, "Get them! All of you! Kill them! As long as you kill them, I'll give you two million dollars!"However, nobody dared to make the first move anymore this time.Seeing that none of his subordinates dared to move, Daxton became incensed. He was all worked
Everyone in the room knew who Eaden was. He was the top mafia boss in Drunham City.However, he was being so humble and respectful toward the loser Liam at that moment.Daxton did not believe in what Eaden said earlier. However, after he saw how Eaden treated Liam with great respect."It's fine. You arrived just in time," said Liam, nodding calmly.Eaden added respectfully, "Mr. Cole, I've brought four hundred elites with me. The entire Moonstream Pavilion is already under my men's control. "I've had the rest of my men surround all the other places that belonged to Daxton. You just have to give the word, and Daxton's companies, clubhouses, bars, and so on will be brought to the ground."Eaden did not take Daxton seriously at all and voiced out his plans blatantly.He was working for Liam for some time. He knew a thing or two about the way Liam worked. Once Liam attacked, he would leave no loose ends behind.Eaden was waiting to get rid of Daxton from Copper Alley in Western Pr
Daxton was infuriated again upon hearing Eaden's words. He sneered and replied, "Look at you. You're the famous Mr. Wafer, yet you're willing to be someone else's watchdog. You even addressed him as Mr. Cole. Do you think I have no idea that he was just someone who was left behind after the Cole family fell? He's nothing more than a loser!"Daxton took out his phone and called his subordinate, bellowing, "Leslie, get all our men to come to Moonstream Pavilion right now! We are going to war with Eaden!"He had the call on the speaker, so everyone in the private room heard the subordinate named Leslie reply with great respect."Yes, Daxton. Don't worry. I'll bring our men along and rush over right away. Fuck, man. Who cares if he's Mr. Wafer—"However, before Leslie finished his sentence, he shouted in a panic, "Who are you? Who allowed you to barge in? Do you know this is Daxton's turf? Do you have a death wish!"A few gunshots rang out. Then, a man shouted in a stern voice, "W
The head of the Wagner family, Harvey Wagner, was a military veteran. He was someone who could call the shots in a government department.The Mr. Wagner Daxton mentioned was the third child in his family and Harvey's most beloved grandson.Because of that, Daxton was unafraid. After all, he was working for Mr. Wagner. Forget about Eaden, as long as Mr. Wagner was willing to help Daxton, even if it was Howard, the mayor of Drunham City, he would not be able to lay a finger on Daxton,The man on the other end of the call sneered. His voice was husky with a hint of frivolous as he said, "Oh? Daxton? What happened? Why are you so anxious?"Daxton glanced at Eaden and Liam with a cocky look and said, "Mr. Wagner, Eaden from Drunham City has laid his finger on me. There's a cocky kid here too. Eaden is that kid's watchdog right now. They want to strip me of all my influences in Copper Alley in Western Precinct."They had every place I own surrounded a few minutes ago. All of my men have
Liam accepted the phone calmly and put it on speaker mode. Then, he heard loud music and the disdainful sneer from the young man coming from the other end of the call.The man immediately said contemptuously, "Are you the loser from the Cole family that Daxton spoke about? Do you want to get rid of all the power Daxton has over Western Precinct? Don't you know that Daxton is one of my men?"The man's voice was arrogant, and it sounded domineering with a hint of frostiness as he asked that question.In an instant, the atmosphere in the private room became solemn. That was because as soon as Mr. Wagner asked the questions, Daxton and his men were ready to strike.Daxton's men were taken away by the police, so what? Mr. Wagner decided to back him up. The Drunham City police were no big deal at all.However, Liam frowned as soon as he heard Mr. Wagner's voice. It was after Mr. Wagner was done talking that Liam asked calmly, "Are you Stephen Wagner?"The man on the other end of the ca
A hot woman who was in Stephen's arms earlier let out a chuckle and walked up to him. She wrapped her fair arms around his neck and leaned on him."Mr. Wagner, what happened? What made you so angry?" she asked.However, Stephen ignored her. He shoved her aside and barked, "Fuck off!"The woman fell to the ground, looking shocked. She wanted to make a scene, but as soon as she saw Stephen's expression, she did not dare to say anything anymore. She just stood at the side, feeling incredibly wronged.Stephen grabbed his hair in annoyance and paced back and forth. In the end, he held onto the last bit of hope and made a call.Soon, the call was answered, and he heard a familiar and terrifying voice coming from the other end of the call."Looks like you haven't forgotten about me. Do you remember me now?"In that instant, Stephen could not stop cursing in his mind.He could not believe that it was truly that man.Everyone in Athenapolis knew Stephen was cocky and domineering. He wa
It was all because Liam said at that time, "If Harvey doesn't teach Stephen a lesson, then there's no need for the Wagner family to exist in Athenapolis anymore. From today on, the Eight Ancient Families of Athenapolis shall be renamed as the Seven Ancient Families!"What he said sent shockwaves through the entire Athenapolis.The Wagner family had hundreds of members, and all of them were kneeling in front of Liam's office building that day. They even brought the infants along.All of them took turns apologizing to Liam on their knees, and then they kneeled on the street outside the building and sincerely begged for forgiveness in front of the people of Athenapolis.The Wagner family failed to discipline their members, which was why they had an impudent decedent like Stephen. Harvey even gave the order to break Stephen's leg.Ever since the young men and women from the wealthy families witnessed what happened that day, Liam became their nightmare.As Stephen recalled what happ
Daxton was done for. The backer he was most proud of, the invincible Mr. Wagner from Athenapolis, was acquainted with the loser named Liam. Stephen was even willing to come to Drunham City himself to kill Daxton to please Liam.What made Daxton even more terrified was that even Stephen, a member of the Athenapolis Eight Ancient Families, was fawning over Liam so cautiously.That would mean that Liam's identity was-How could that possibly be? Was Liam not just a loser? Was he not just some trash who married into the Stone family? Why would Mr. Wagner be afraid of him?Daxton kneeled on the floor, looking hopeless, feeling terrified from the depths of his soul."No need." Liam hung up the call after he uttered two simple words.Daxton's subordinates in the private room gave up resisting after they heard what Stephen said. They threw their weapons away and dropped to their knees in fear.Eaden's subordinates rushed in almost at the same time and subdued Daxton and his men.Daxton
