"You're right. Wedding dresses that were worn by a bitch like Celena are too disgusting. Let's go. Let's not buy the dresses from this shop."The customers instantly started to discuss softly among themselves.People who came to the shop would all have their wedding soon. After they learned that Celena was the woman who slept with her best friend's fiance, their gaze was filled with great disgust and hostility as they looked at Celena.They also started to feel disgusted by the wedding dress from Blissful Bride Boutique because Celena tried it on, and they were about to leave.The customers' actions sent the saleswomen into a panic. If all of the customers were to leave, they would suffer a huge loss in commission.Because of that, the saleswoman looked at Celena furiously and criticized her.Seeing the criticisms and discussions and being slapped by Cheryl made Celena feel incredibly wronged. She looked at the crowd anxiously and explained, "No, I didn't! It's nothing like what
Everyone in the bridal shop was stunned.All they could think of was how Celena looked in her underwear after she was stripped.Her skin was as fair as snow, and she had no extra fats at all. She was well-endowed, had a slender waist, and a pair of long legs.Professional models did not even have a figure as perfect as hers.The women at the shop thought she looked very beautiful, much less the men.Did she not have a child already? How could she keep herself in such perfect shape?They were so jealous of her!It was after Celena ran out of the bridal shop in tears that the crowd regained their senses.A woman turned to look at Celena's back as she ran out and muttered, "Gosh, didn't she give birth to a child already? How could she have such a flat stomach? There's not even a stretch mark either. I'm so jealous!"…After Celena ran out of the shop in tears while covering her mouth, she felt as if something terrifying was following her from behind. She kept running for a long
Liam wrapped an arm around Celena's waist and rubbed her back gently with the other.Just like that, Celena cried for more than ten minutes before she stopped gradually. She wiped off the tears on her cheeks and slowly looked up at Liam while sniffling.Liam looked down into his arms and saw Celena's reddened eyes and tear-stained face. Feeling heartbroken, he wiped the tears off the corner of her eyes and said, "Let's go."Once Liam uttered those words, he was ready to take Celena away."Huh?" Celena quickly grabbed him and asked nervously, "Wh-where are we going?"Liam turned around to look at Celena and said solemnly, "Of course, we're going to avenge you. I can't even bear to bully you and make you cry, yet they bullied you so badly. As your husband, I have to seek revenge for you."Celena felt touched. She still had tears in her eyes, but she put on a faint smile and said, "Forget it. It's better to not get into unnecessary trouble. I'm fine now. Let's go home."Liam looked
However, Cheryl still felt unhappy with the dress. She kept lifting the dress and looking at herself in the mirror.She was about to explode with anger. Why did she not look striking like Celena did when she had it on earlier?Right as Cheryl was holding back her anger, Liam walked in while holding Celena's hand.Cheryl was infuriated as soon as she saw Celena's gorgeous face. She glared at her viciously and bellowed, "How dare you come back, bitch! Do you think I would dare to hit you just because you brought this loser here with you? Listen up. I'm not afraid of him!"As she said that, she saw Celena looking pitiful. Her blood instantly boiled, and she charged at Celena with her hands high up in the air, wanting to slap her.However, as soon as Cheryl got near Celena before she could even slap her, Liam grabbed her hand and slapped her instead.The slap was so loud that it echoed through the room, stunning everyone.What a brutal man! He even dared to hit a woman!Celena did
"Hmm? Mmm. What's the matter, baby?" Wasyl moaned.Cheryl was so incensed that she failed to notice something was off on Wasyl's end. She simply whined in tears, "Liam has gone overboard! I'm your fiancee, yet he had the guts to treat me like this. You mustn't let him off the hook!"Wasyl was lying on top of his secretary at that moment. Both of them were naked, lying on the bed in the lounge of his office, going to pound town.After Wasyl heard what Cheryl said, he immediately lost interest and shouted, "What? How dare LIam slap you? Don't cry, darling. Just wait for me. I'll be right there."It was only then Celena hummed with satisfaction and hung up the call. As Celena heard Cheryl's call, she immediately felt nervous, and she grabbed Liam's hand tightly. Feeling worried, she asked, "Liam, what should we do? We wouldn't.."Liam comforted her with a smile, saying, "Don't be afraid. I'm here. Everything will be fine."Liam glanced at the saleswomen with a frost gaze, and then
Another saleswoman said with disdain, "How could you seek justice for her? Have you seen yourself in the mirror? You just look like a poor bastard. Your entire outfit costs less than a hundred dollars, doesn't it? Do you know how much the cheapest wedding dress we have here is?""Exactly. A bitch and a poor bastard. What a match made in heaven!""Hahaha!"Liam's gaze got frostier by the second. Hearing them slandering Celena as they pleased made him exude a frosty air.Then, he locked his eyebrows into a frown and slapped the saleswoman who spoke first, making her fall to the ground.Liam looked down at the saleswoman who was dumbfounded by the slap. With a frosty glint in his eyes, he said, "Who do you think you are, then? You kept calling my wife a bitch, but you're just someone who's working for a paycheck."The saleswoman who was slapped was not the only one who was stunned. The other saleswomen who were standing at the side were all left in a daze as well. "Ah! How dare yo
The other saleswomen sneered as well and said disdainfully, "She's just a bitch. Why should we apologize to her?""You're right. What a joke. We didn't slander her. If there's nothing wrong with her behavior, then there wouldn't be those bad rumors, would there?""As the saying goes, there's no smoke without fire. She's simply a bitch. Were we wrong?""Apologize? Dream on! We're the staff of Blissful Bride Boutique. Don't even think about asking us to apologize to this bitch!"The saleswomen kept speaking one after another, and their words got more and more unpleasant to the ears. Liam's face got more and more sullen as he listened to them, but a faint smile appeared on his face.Celena was angry and felt she was wronged after she heard the words of the saleswoman. She immediately refuted, "That's all nonsense. I didn't do anything. I'm not that kind of person."It would have been better if Celena said nothing. As soon as she spoke, the words that came out of the saleswomen's mou
"Where's everybody? What's everyone doing? Why is it so quiet today?"Right at that moment, a man's deep and icy voice could be heard coming from downstairs. It was then followed by the thumping of leather shots that were drawing near.Leonie's expression changed drastically after she heard that voice. As if she suffered an outrageous indignation, she cried and ran toward the man, shouting, "Mr. Warren, you're finally here! These two people refused to leave. They have been making a scene at our shop, and they even slapped me."The other saleswomen straightened their backs once they heard the man's voice. Then, they called out respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Warren."Soon, a heavy middle-aged man in a black suit walked over with his bulging belly, looking frosty.Larry Warren, the manager of Blissful Bride Boutique, frowned upon hearing Leonie's words. His voice was frosty as he asked, "What the hell is going on? Who would have the guts to make a scene at our shop?"Leonie tugged at Lar
However, Andy was a smooth talker, so the eldest member of the Drayton family liked him. Because of that, the head of the family tolerated him. That was why Andy, who was just a member of the branch family, dared to be so cocky.Andy saw Howard standing at the side from the corner of his eye as he spoke. He thought of what Howard said earlier, and that made his blood boil.He pointed at Howard and bellowed, "Uncle Derrick, this Howard is trash as well. You have no idea. I told him I was a member of the Drayton family, yet he did not take our family seriously at all."Not only did he have his men capture me, but he said cockily that he wanted to lock me up forever, and nobody could stop him."Weren't you very cocky before this, Mr. Mosier? Go on. Continue acting cocky in front of my uncle now. Detain me and lock me up forever."Andy took a couple of steps closer to Howard as he said that. He extended his hands arrogantly and said, "Come on. I have my hands stretched out for you. Hu
Soon, Andy and the thugs from the nightclub yesterday were released.Andy saw Derrick standing at the entrance of the police headquarters at a glance. He got so excited that he shouted, "Uncle Derrick! Uncle Derrick!"Fletcher's subordinates were incredibly excited to see Derrick as well. All of them shouted, "Mr. Derrick Drayton!"One of the subordinates was in Drunham City because Derrick arranged for him to be there. After he was brought to Derrick's side, he smiled apologetically and said, "Thank you for saving me, sir. Don't worry. Fletcher's faction and properties are all here. I'll be able to rebuild the faction here very soon."In other words, even if Fletcher was out of the picture, he would be able to thrive in Drunham City and replace Fletcher.However, Derrick shot an icy glare at him and sneered. "Hmph! How shameless of you to say that? There are so many of you, yet you can't deal with a small loser who only married into the Stone family."If it wasn't because this w
Howard did not expect that the Drayton family would have a connection with the Carter family. They could even produce a token from the Carter family."Mr. Derrick Drayton, I didn't expect that your family and the Carters go way back. You even got the Carter family's token out," said Howard.Derrick sneered and said, "Enough with the nonsense. Howard, my family did the Carter family a favor back then, that's why the general of the Carter family gave this token to us. He promised us that we could take out this token if we were ever in a bind in the future, and they would help us!"I'm taking out this token today to tell you that I'm going to bail Andy out of here. I'd like to see who in Drunham City has the guts to stop me!"Howard was stunned, and then he fell silent.He did not think that Derrick would take out a token from the Carter family.The Carter family was the top family in Mirstone. Nobody in Mirstone would dare to go against the Carter family. Derrick became even more
Meanwhile, Derrick and his men were already at the entrance of the police headquarters.Derrick's eyes were burning with rage as he looked at the door that was shut tightly. A sneer appeared on his lips as he said, "Hmph. Looks like they already know I'm coming, so they are deliberately trying to assert dominance."Then, he asked his driver next to him, "Where are our men? Have they all arrived?"The driver nodded and said, "They're here, Mr. Derrick. They are all waiting at the side. We'll tear down the main door to the police headquarters once you give the command."Derrick nodded with satisfaction. Then, he shouted at the police headquarters, "Howard! You're just the chief of the police headquarters! How dare you lock me outside?""I'd like to see how powerful you are today, Howard! Come on, guys. Take it down!"At his command, a group of burly men rushed out of the black van next to him. They were all holding thick bats, and they rushed up to the door ferociously.Right at t
At first, Yafe and the rest of the Stone family were stunned after they heard what Liam said. Then, they all burst out laughing.Yafe looked at Liam with a mocking gaze and said, "Are you kidding me, Liam? You're going to get the Draytons to come and apologize in person? Come on, that's the Drayton family we're talking about! Do you think they are just some nobody?"Right now, I don't want to waste my breath anymore. As long as you're able to stop the Drayton family from targeting us, I'm more than grateful. Don't you forget that you're the one who wanted to leave the Stone family? So, stop dragging us into your mess."Liam shot the crowd with an icy glare and brought Celena out of the Stone Mansion.Celena was still in a slight daze after they got into the car. Liam put on her safety belt for her and asked, "What's the matter, dear? Are you still worried about the Draytons?"Celena nodded and replied, "Yes. After all, all these were caused by the conflict between Andy and us. Jus
Liam wanted to ask what the family heirloom was, but he had no choice but to let it be after he heard what Yonatan said.However, Liam heard Yonatan's voice again, saying, "I've never seen that thing, but I heard from the Drayton family members that it was from a big shot in the military."The military?Liam's eyebrows furrowed once he heard it had something to do with the military. Then, he kicked Yonatan away, making him land next to the thugs.Yonatan passed out because of that kick.Once the thugs saw their leader was out cold, they took a couple of steps back in fear.However, Liam did not care about them at all. He looked at Yafe and the others instead.Once the Stone family members saw that they were out of the woods, they became cocky again.Yafe and Sherah, in particular, were so cocky that they ran up to Liam and condemned him, "Look what you've done! You're bad luck! What else can you do other than cause us trouble? Do you know who that is? He is from the Drayton fam
Yonatan was infuriated and bellowed, "So this is how you're going to play! Alright! I'm not going to stop until I kill you today!"Yonatan was radiating an intense desire to battle. That was the air exuded by a fighter of Fourth Order War King caliber.The Stone family was so frightened by the air he exuded that their faces turned pale. All of them took more than ten steps back in fear, afraid they would be injured by mistake.Yonatan clenched his fist and charged at Liam like a ferocious beast. His fist was packing so much power that it created a sonic boom, cutting through the air and going for Liam's face.The punch was so powerful that it could kill a bull right away.The Stone family thought Liam was going to die. Nobody would be able to survive a punch like that.Yonatan thought the same. He was very confident in his ability. He looked into Liam and knew he used to be a soldier, as well as a good fighter. However, so what?No matter how skilled Liam was in combat, could he
The moment Liam stepped into view, the Stone family members lit up as if they had spotted their guardian angel. They pointed at him, their voices rising in a chorus of relief and accusation. "Mr. Yonatan, look over here! It's Liam! I said they weren't with us!""Exactly! Mr. Yonatan, see for yourself, Liam's not part of our family!""Mr. Yonatan, now that Liam's here, if you're looking to pin the blame on someone, he's your man!""Liam, you actually showed up. If you hadn't crossed the Drayton family, would we, the Stones, have ever been dragged into this mess?""Liam, Celena, you two are nothing but trouble. You've left the family, so why keep stirring the pot for us?"...The air crackled with the Stone family's collective outrage, their faces twisted in anger as if they were ready to rip Liam and Celena to shreds.Celena and Liam's arrival was pure happenstance. They were just in the neighborhood to check in on an old friend when they overheard Yonatan's boastful taunts.Lia
Yonatan did not even bother to look at him. He checked his watch with a chilling laugh and said, "You've got ten minutes for Liam to show up. Don't say I didn't warn you."The words sent a wave of shock through Yafe and the rest of the Stone family, who stared at Yonatan, panic-stricken.Yafe was a mess, desperate to explain, but the sight of Yonatan's henchmen, eager and ready for a fight, stopped him dead in his tracks."Mr. Yonatan, I swear it's the truth. Liam has nothing to do with the Stone family anymore. You've made a mistake!"Yafe's face was flushed with urgency as he tried to convince the unmoved man."It's true, Mr. Yonatan! Liam and Celena were kicked out of the Stone family ages ago.""That's right! He's got nothing to do with us anymore. If you're after Liam, go to the villa at Emerald Lake. He's there, not here with us.""Mr. Yonatan, if you head over to Drunham City and ask anyone, they'll tell you the same thing: Liam and Celena have no ties to us Stones anymor
