The sight of the boxing champ being hurled through the air was utterly staggering, especially the thunderous crash of Vilmos slamming into the stone pillar—a sound that still seemed to reverberate in his ears.If a tough guy like the champ could not handle a single move from Liam, what chance did they have?That thought sent waves of panic through Forrest. He jolted out of his stupor, glancing at Vilmos sprawled in a crimson pool, then at Liam, untouched. Forrest's instincts screamed at him to bolt.However, as he took his first step to flee, Liam casually flicked a machete from the ground. It zipped past Forrest's leg and with a resounding clang, stuck quivering in the floorboards.Liam's voice, icy and spectral, cut through the silence, "Who said you could leave?"Forrest's legs buckled, and he crumpled to the ground, a shameful stain spreading beneath him. His face was ghostly white, sweat streaming down his brow.He was terrified, convinced for a split second that his leg was
Liam sneered and put his hand down upon hearing Zane's words. Looking at him with disdain, Liam asked, "What are you talking about, Mr. Long? You want me to have mercy on you?"Zane was so frightened that he was trembling all over. As soon as he heard Liam's words, he dropped to his knees and begged for forgiveness, "I was wrong. I know that very well now. I shouldn't have spewed all that nonsense. I shouldn't have pulled such a despicable trick to set Sunniva up. "I truly know that it was my fault. You're a generous person. Please spare me. I'll give you money as long as you let me go. Alright?"Zane was truly terrified at that moment. He had no idea Liam was so strong. It was no wonder that Sunniva hired him to be her bodyguard. He was able to kill Vilmos, the Ironfist, in seconds, much less an ordinary folk like Zane. Killing him would be a piece of cake for Liam.At that moment, Zane no longer had the arrogance he had from earlier. He was on his knees, his face was red and swo
Liam stood in place calmly after he crippled Zane, holding the bloody dagger that was emitting a frosty glint, staring at Zane who was in excruciating pain."If the Swanton family from the capital is unhappy about this, they can come and look for me in Drunham City. I'll be waiting for them."How cocky and domineering of Liam!Forrest and the other thugs gasped, feeling incredibly terrified. They did not even dare to breathe loudly as they were afraid that they would piss off the Devil that was Liam.Forrest was left trembling in fear after he saw how violently Liam crippled Zane. He quickly crawled to a corner, doing his best to make himself unnoticeable.Just as he got up, he sensed a sharp gaze landing on himself. He turned around and saw Liam looking at him frostily, and then Liam walked up to him.Forrest was so frightened that he froze up. Then, he put on an incredibly fawning smile and crawled up to Liam.Yes, it was true. Forrest was no longer as cocky as before anymore.
Forrest and the subordinates were all stunned by the sight of so many soldiers who suddenly appeared.What the hell was going on? Why were there so many soldiers?While everybody watched in shock, Calum cut through the crowd with two soldiers and came straight to Liam. He was incredibly respectful as he bowed his head and whispered to Liam.Liam nodded and replied, "Alright. Take all of them away."Calum then detained Forrest, Zane, and all of the others and brought them into the military trucks.Soon, all the people at the entrance to the hotel were taken away. The mess on the floor was cleaned up at the speed of lightning as well. Everybody was gone within three minutes.Even though the entrance was cleaned up, it was still in a mess. A dense bloody stench was still lingering in the air.It was after everybody was gone that Sunniva let out a big sigh of relief and looked at Liam with a complicated gaze.Liam knew that Sunniva was frightened by what happened that night, so he
It was already very late after Liam left the hotel, so he hailed a cab and returned home.After he got home, he realized Celena already had dinner prepared, and both Celena and Jovie were waiting for him on the couch to have dinner with him.Seeing both of them playing on the couch and also the delicious food on the table made Liam feel warm and fuzzy inside.It was a long time since he felt he had a family ever since the Cole family was destroyed. All the warmth he felt at that moment was brought to him by Celena and Jovie, and he felt incredibly happy.Jovie waited for Liam, glancing outside the door from time to time. Once she saw that Liam returned, she immediately ran up to him with excitement, jumping into his arms with a big grin.In an adorable voice, Jovie said, "Daddy, you're finally back! I've missed you so much!"Liam smiled gently and carried Jovie in his arms. Looking at Jovie's adorable face, he kissed her on the cheek."I missed you very much too, Jovie. That's w
Liam was feeling incredibly nervous. Seeing Celena so upset made him panic. He immediately put Jovie down and explained anxiously, "Celena, I-I didn't. I didn't cheat on you. It's an accident that the smell of the perfume rubbed off on me by accident."I attended a dinner with Ms. Bristow today. I took her back to her hotel after dinner and came home after walking her to the door to her room. Believe me. I swear I didn't do anything. Don't be angry, alright."Seeing Liam in this state amused Celena. She had a long face but could not hold herself back anymore. Covering her mouth as she snickered, she said, "Alright. Calm down. I believe you. Hurry up and wash your hands. Let's have dinner. The food is all cold now."Celena walked toward the dining table smiling and served up a bowl of soup for Liam. Realizing that he was standing in place, she frowned and pretended to be angry, saying, "What are you still waiting for? Are you not going to have dinner?"Jovie covered her mouth and ch
Celena quickly shook her head and said, "No need for that. I just wanted to ask if you're free to watch Jovie at home. I think Cheryl just wanted me to pick out a dress with her."Liam said nothing else. He could tell that Celena was not in a good mood. She looked disappointed.Celena hid it very well, but Liam could still tell what was on her mind at a glance.She suffered too much for him, but she never talked about it. She simply kept it all to herself and consoled herself at every turn instead.Her disappointment and the way she held it all back made Liam feel heartbroken. He swore to himself that he had to be good to Celena in the future.Then, he pretended that everything was fine, put some salad on Celena's plate with a smile, and said, "Alright. I'll let you go with her tomorrow then. You can take the chance to check it out and see if there's any wedding dress that you like. You can pick one out yourself or give me a call and I'll come over to pick one out with you."Cele
Celena quickly pulled her hands out of Liam's palm. She pretended to be angry and glared at Liam before she said, "Hurry up and eat."Not only was her glare not frightening, but the bashful gaze made her look extra alluring. Liam gulped in silence after he saw that. He knew Celena was feeling shy, so he did not dare to say anything else anymore. Otherwise, she might just stop having her dinner.The family of three finished their dinner while love was in the air. After dinner, Celena helped Jovie take a bath while Liam said he was going for a smile in the yard. However, he called Calum instead after he got to the yard."Look for the most famous bridal boutique in the world and prepare the most precious and unique wedding dress for Celena. I want her to wear the prettiest wedding dress on the twenty-eighth as she marries me with blessings from the entire nation."Mmhmm. Alright. Do as you see fit. Call me immediately if there's any problem," said Liam. Calum was not shocked at al
