Chapter 1396

Author: Voice From Heaven
"Ms. Bristow, you saw it all, didn't you? You can't say I'm making this up. Look at this bodyguard you've brought into the company. Sure, I might not be his direct superior, but as the vice president, I still have a say, right?

"Who keeps an employee who's ready to throw punches at their own superior? What's the point?"

Ivar's face was a mask of malice as he looked from Sunniva to Liam and back again. "Ms. Bristow, if he's this out of control, what's to stop him from doing something even worse?"

Sunniva's head began to throb at his words. She was not fond of Ivar, the company's new vice president, but she could not deny that Liam had been about to confront Ivar in front of everyone.

Rubbing her temples, Sunniva fixed Liam with an icy stare. "Liam, what's this all about?"

Just as Liam was about to explain, he caught Ivar's dark glare and quickly put on an innocent face. "Ms. Bristow, I'm as confused as you are. I have no idea what I've done to upset Mr. Nicoson. He came in here and

    Liam watched Sunniva's alluring figure walk away, feeling a primal tug at the sight. However, he quickly snapped out of it, shaking his head and chuckling to himself."She's been in a real foul mood lately, huh? Talk about a short fuse," he mused.The marketing department soon buzzed with its usual energy, everyone diving back into work.Thora shot Liam a conspiratorial glance and murmured under her breath, "Mr. Cole, you've got some guts..."With a smirk, she scooted back to her desk and got down to business.Liam settled back into his chair, idly thumbing through a magazine he had snagged from a shelf, his eyes glazing over with boredom.Ten minutes ticked by before Sunniva's stunning assistant burst through the marketing department's doors, her presence like a whirlwind.That day, Holly was clad in a chic, beige business suit that hugged her curves in all the right ways. Her legs, encased in sheer black stockings, could make anyone's thoughts wander.With each step she took,

    The marketing department took its sweet time getting back to the grind after Lily and Holly's exit.Liam grabbed a magazine and settled into the lounge by the office door, sipping his coffee. About ten minutes ticked by before Lily strutted back in, her heels clicking a confident rhythm. She swayed past the lounge, and for a few seconds, she paused, giving Liam a look that was hard to read.Lily's gaze was intense, and the way her curves seemed to challenge the confines of her blouse made it hard for Liam not to sneak a peek.However, Liam was just Liam, a guy led by his instincts. His eyes might have paused on her for a moment, but he quickly looked away, his mind clear of any real interest.Lily held his gaze for a brief moment before turning and rushing back to the Marketing Director's office.Meanwhile, Thora, who was supposed to be at her desk, had somehow found her way back to the break room."Mr. Cole, caught you staring, huh?" Thora sidled up to Liam, nudging his arm with

    A woman with a flair for the dramatic strutted through the front door, her sensuality a stark contrast to Lily's icy composure. While both women donned provocative attire, Lily's presence was cool and detached, whereas the newcomer seemed to flaunt her flirtatiousness with every gesture.Clad in a business suit that did little to contain her ample curves, her blouse might give way at any moment.Her face, caked in makeup, bore a scowl as she surveyed Liam and Thora from the threshold of the break room.Thora's heart skipped a beat at the sight of her. She recoiled slightly, a whisper of fear in her voice, "Mr. Cole, watch out. She's clearly here for you."That was no ordinary woman; she was a notorious figure within the Bristow Group, infamous not for her business savvy but for her biting wit and mean spirit.She was the latest companion of the new vice president, Ivar. Rumor had it she was more than just a colleague, she was his lover.Xora Hardy, with a stormy expression and ar

    Some onlookers, thrilled by the unfolding drama, could not resist capturing the moment. They covertly filmed videos and snapped photos, quickly sharing the juicy content in the company's group chat.Thora had every intention of slipping away as Xora marched over, but the way Xora was laying to Liam made her pause.With a smile, Thora stepped forward and interjected, "Ms. Hardy, let's not get heated. Mr. Cole is new around here, and he's always on the go as Ms. Bristow's right-hand man. It's easy for wires to get crossed with Mr. Nicoson."Look, Mr. Nicoson's already left without making a fuss. Mr. Cole is part of Ms. Bristow's crew, and to make him apologize publicly to Mr. Nicoson now... well, it doesn't seem quite fair..."Thora's words were cut short by a sharp slap that echoed through the air!Xora's expression turned to stone as she delivered a fierce slap to Thora's cheek, her gaze icy as she hissed, "Thora, zip it! What's this got to do with you? Did I come here for you? Wh

    Liam did not take Xora seriously at all. He looked at Thora calmly instead and asked in a solemn tone, "Thora, what are you afraid of? Even if you're just an ordinary staff member of the Bristow Group, you're still a person with dignity. Do you think it's alright for her just to slap you as she pleases?"Thora's expression changed as she heard those words. Of course, she was not alright with it. But, so what if she was reluctant to accept it?That was how society worked in that day in age. She was just an insignificant staff member who finally got a job at the Bristow Group. Her livelihood depended on this job.Xora was the manager of the marketing department. She was not someone a mere staff member like Thora could afford to mess with.Thora had a complicated expression and looked upset. She hesitated for a while, but she still held Liam's hand and said, "I understand everything you said, Mr. Cole. But let's just forget it. After all, we're just insignificant staff members of the

  • My Invincible Husband Has Returned   Chapter 1402

    Liam sneered and said, "So what if I slapped you? This slap teaches you that even if Thora is merely a staff member, you can't humiliate her as you please. "Every staff member in a company is human, and they have their dignity. They are also a part of the Bristow Group. As a manager, not only do you not respect them, but you're arrogant and domineering toward them. So what if I slapped you?"The staff members who were once insulted and bullied by Xora and the other superiors started to become angry upon hearing what Liam said.Liam's words struck a chord with them. They were nothing more than mere staff members, but they were still a part of the Bristow Group. They were humans, and they had their dignity!Just because they did not hold high positions, did that mean they should be bullied and humiliated? Why should they endure that?All of the staff members who were once bullied by Xora glared at her furiously, dying to charge at her and give her a couple of slaps.Thora did not

    Xora became even more upset after she heard Liam's words. Her eyes were filled with rage. It was as if she was about to devour Liam. Her voice was frosty as she said, "What else do you want?"Liam frowned, his expression darkened. The air around him became colder as well. He pointed at Thora and said frostily, "Apologies to Thora right now!"Xora was first taken aback. Then, she shouted furiously, "Dream on! Do you want me to apologize to an insignificant staff member like her? Can she bear to accept it?"Liam sneered, exuding an intimidating air all of a sudden. He took a couple of steps forward and stared at Xora. He asked in return, "Oh? Is that so?"Xora was so frightened that her legs turned to jelly. She thought of how Liam slapped her without hesitation at all earlier. She could still feel the burning pain on her cheeks as well. With all that as her reminder, she quickly took a few steps back.Feeling nervous, she shouted, "D-don't come over. What do you want to do?"Liam

    Liam turned to look at Thora. After he saw that she was worried and anxious that he eased up on being intimidating.Liam then ignored Xora and sat on the couch again, picking up and flipping through the magazine again calmly.Xora was infuriated by Liam's attitude. She glared at Liam and Thora ferociously and threatened through gritted teeth, "I'll remember what happened today! Liam, Thora, just wait and see! I definitely won't let you off the hook! "Especially you, Thora. You're just an insignificant staff, yet you have the guts to make me apologize to you. I'll have ways to deal with you as long as you're still in the office!"In an instant, all eyes were on Liam and Thora.Some of them felt sorry for them, some were gloating, and some were upset with Xora.Many of the staff in the office started to discuss softly. Those who were gloating thought that Liam was simply asking for trouble. Everyone in the company knew about Xora and Ivar's relationship. Nobody had the guts to off

    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
