My Invincible Husband Has Returned Chapter 1440
Everyone got to their feet to greet Corie and Yennifer warmly. This was expected, given that the two of them were easily the prettiest women in the room, not to mention the fact that Corie also happened to be the heiress of the prestigious Doyle family. Everyone in the room was eager to get to know her and form yet another powerful connection.After greeting everyone, Corie then added with a smile, "Let me introduce this person next to me. His name is Liam Cole, and he's my new friend here in Drunham City!"Liam's presence was not received as warmly, for the excitement dampened down, and everyone merely nodded curtly in response to this. Some of them did not even bother giving him so much as a glance.Liam, however, was not at all bothered by the lack of response. If anything, he was not at all interested in getting to know these people at all. He, Yennifer, and Corie took their seats. The moment Liam sat down next to Corie, he could feel sharp looks on him from all directions, so

Wren's eyes blazed with a mix of admiration and envy as she gushed about Kaison. "Mr. Nasso is one of the state's most eligible bachelors, a real mover and shaker among the elite. The Nasso Group is blue-blooded royalty here, and the cherry on top? Mr. Nasso is making a special trip to Drunham City tonight just to see you!"The more she talked, the more her jealousy showed. Her gaze was practically on fire as she looked at Kaison, but he did not even spare her a glance.Kaison, backed by the prestigious Nasso Group, was a catch no woman could ignore—handsome and filthy rich.Wren tried to cozy up to him the moment he walked into the VIP room, but Kaison did not show the slightest interest.Kaison was on a mission tonight, and his target was Corie. Unfazed by her indifference, he kept his cool and flashed a charming smile. "Ms. Doyle, you might not know me, but meeting tonight's got to be more than coincidence. Let's call it the start of a new friendship, shall we?"Wren eagerly ba

The mention of Liam ignited a fire in Vincent's chest, his words seething with venom. "Just watch," he hissed, "So what if he's by Corie's side? Kaison's set his sights on her, and he won't let anyone get in his way!"Vincent's rant was a tangled mess, leaving the preppy guy next to him baffled.However, the guy shrugged it off, figuring Vincent was just spouting drunken gibberish out of heartache.As for the other men who were eyeing Corie, hoping to woo her, they all quietly retreated to their seats once Kaison showed his interest. Those who did not make a move yet quickly shelved their plans.They all knew who Kaison was, no one was foolish enough to cross him or the powerful state Nasso Group over a girl.Besides, in their world, Kaison was a legend. Any woman he wanted, he got. So, the men played it smart—they dropped the idea like a hot potato.In the VIP room, the air was thick with envy and jealousy. All the women, except Corie and Yennifer, had their eyes set on Kaison.

Wren's argument was a familiar one at any drinking table—if you do not drink, it's as if you're snubbing the host.Corie felt cornered, trying to explain, "It's not about respect, Wren. I just really can't handle my liquor."However, it dawned on her, even with her naivety, that Wren was intentionally pushing her toward Kaison.The realization that her old college pal would so easily cast aside their friendship to curry favor with Kaison left Corie's expression darkening, her voice growing icier by the second.Wren was oblivious to Corie's reluctance, her mind set on winning Kaison's approval. However, Corie's lack of cooperation quickly got under her skin."Corie, are we friends or not? I'm just asking you to have a drink. Why are you dodging the question? If you value our friendship, you'll drink this glass!" Wren declared. With that, she plopped down in a chair, arms crossed, and turned away in a huff.The room fell silent, the mood turning awkward.Kaison, ever the gentleman
My Invincible Husband Has Returned Chapter 1444
Liam was not taken aback by Kaison's comment, he was all too familiar with those little games, having played them himself seven years earlier. With everyone's eyes on him, he remained composed and spoke with a nonchalance that belied the tension in the room. "I wouldn't say it's all that grand. I'm a bodyguard with the Bristow Group here in Drunham City."The moment the words left his lips, Kaison clapped a hand over his mouth, his eyes wide with mock astonishment. "No way! You're a bodyguard for the Bristow Group in Drunham City? The Bristow heir is a pal of mine—I had no clue you were on their payroll! Man, you're something else. Hats off to you!"Kaison's performance was over the top, his gaze dripping with scorn. The crowd was savvy enough to see right through him, and they piled on with their jabs."Come on, Mr. Nasso, you're impressed by a mere bodyguard? Don't make us laugh. That's beneath someone of your caliber.""Exactly, Mr. Nasso. You're the big shot of the Nasso Grou
My Invincible Husband Has Returned Chapter 1445
Liam was not bothered, but Corie was. She brought him there, and the crowd's ridicule was a direct hit to her pride.If word of tonight's fiasco got out, Corie would be the laughingstock of the whole town.That was something she just could not stand for.With a swift grab of her clutch, Corie whipped around to face Yennifer and Liam, her voice seething with frustration, "Yennifer, Liam, we're out of here!"Yennifer's expression was sour. She had no love for the petty games those spoiled heirs and heiresses were playing. At Corie's signal, she snatched up her bag, ready to bolt. However, to everyone's surprise, Liam, the butt of their jokes, did not budge. A smirk played on his lips as he nonchalantly replied, "Ms. Doyle, why rush off? Didn't we come for dinner? Let's not leave hungry. I mean, I've got nothing to eat back at home!"His comment threw the room into a stunned silence, which quickly erupted into raucous laughter."Hahaha! What's he even saying? No food at home? Is h

As his words hung in the air, the room erupted into raucous laughter once more.Qasim, the wealthy heir who first said hello to Corie, then stood up, grinning from ear to ear. He exaggerated his surprise as he spoke, "Ms. Doyle, I just can't figure you out. Why befriend a little bodyguard like him? Aren't you just dragging down your reputation? Look at the guy, he can't even spring for a meal without blushing with shame!""Mr. Calnan, that's a bit harsh, don't you think? The Royal Terrace Restaurant isn't exactly a diner off the highway. For a small-time bodyguard to snag a dinner here, he'd have enough bragging rights to last a lifetime!""Right? Hey, bodyguard bro, why don't you ask me for a favor? Forget about one more meal, how about we treat you to a week's worth of dining?"The taunts from Qasim sparked a wave of jeers from the other trust-fund kids. However, Liam? He just sat there, cool as a cucumber, as if their words were nothing but background noise.Liam might have bru

Wren was visibly taken aback by Corie's blunt dismissal, her face a picture of shock. The room was plunged into an uncomfortable silence. Corie, with a mocking laugh, gave everyone a chilly look and added, "Let me make this crystal clear one last time: I don't need anyone's approval for who I befriend. Sure, you all come from fancier backgrounds than Liam. He's just a bodyguard, but to me, he's worth ten of you. He's out there working hard to better himself, without any silver spoon. And you? What's the point of your fancy pedigrees if all you do is party your life away and mooch off your folks?"Corie did not mince her words, her candor cutting through the pretense. After all, most of the crowd lived off their wealthy families, aimlessly drifting from one social event to another, with no real purpose or ambition.They were all guilty of mooching off their folks, sure, but nobody had the guts to call it out in front of the whole crowd—until Corie did. Her words were like a slap in

What would Liam do if he found out Prince Faber had captured his wife? Surely he would not hesitate to turn the entire city upside down to look for her?Prince Faber was more than familiar with Liam's fierce loyalty and could not help but begin to worry at the prospect of having to face his wrath. He stared at Keyon's leering face and asked with belated realization, "Mr. Yeager, you ordered me to capture all those people from the Drunham City Connoisseurs, but the truth is, your sole target has always been Liam's wife. Is that right?"Keyon nodded, smiling. "That's right. We could care less about those businessmen. All we wanted was to get our hands on Celena Stone!"I must admit I was very surprised when I found out that Celena Stone is the wife of the great King Pendragon. Not only that, but I made an even more shocking discovery—it turns out that Liam is none other than the lone survivor of the Cole family, the noble clan who were allegedly wiped out seven years ago!"The ment

After a few moments' hesitation, he finally decided to shoot his shot. "Mr. Yeager, there is something I don't understand. Why did the Yeagers order these businessmen's capture? I've looked into their backgrounds, and they are all honest businessmen who have not broken the law before. If the media catches wind of this, they will surely accuse me of abusing my power…"This was what Prince Faber had been worried about. He had already investigated the people whom the Yeagers ordered to be captured and did not understand why the Yeagers wanted them imprisoned. They were all civilians who had not committed any crime, and he dared not even imagine the consequences if the public found out he had ordered the incarceration of innocent citizens.Keyon understood immediately Prince Faber's concern. He smiled and replied in a reassuring tone, "Worry not, Prince Faber. We Yeagers have taken care of everything. We have made absolutely sure to cover up all your tracks, and no one will know you were

Meanwhile, Celena and the group were taken out of the hotel and shoved forcefully into a couple of jeeps waiting at the entrance. They were whisked away to a nearby military base. Before they could even get their bearings straight, they found themselves being tossed into holding cells. Celena, on the other hand, was taken separately to a small, dark room, illuminated only by the barest sliver of light that peeped in through a tiny window. The room was entirely empty, save for a metal bed frame. A sour stench hung in the air, and it was clear this room had been abandoned for a very long time. A soldier shoved Celena roughly into the room, and before she could realize what was happening, the soldier slammed the door shut.The soldier had pushed Celena so hard that she fell onto the ground, but upon seeing that her captor was about to leave, she leaped to her feet and sprinted over to the door. "Sir, can you tell me what I did wrong? Can you please have mercy on me? Can you at least

Tristan seemed just as baffled as they were. He returned their puzzled gazes with an equally perplexed one of his own. "I… I have no idea…"The general glanced sharply in their direction, then gestured to his soldiers and declared sternly, "Take them away!"His soldiers obliged and stepped forward to restrain the members of the Drunham City Connoisseurs, who all shrieked in alarm, "Why are you taking us away?""General, what did we do wrong? We didn't do anything illegal, so why are you arresting us?""Mr. Xander, save us! They've got this all wrong!""What's going on here? Why are they arresting only us?"Celena's entire body was shaking like a leaf. She eyed the soldiers around her and asked, stammering, "General, what did we do wrong? Why are we being captured? Where are you taking us?"Tristan, stricken with panic, shoved a soldier aside and shouted at the general, "General, I'm the president of the Drunham City Connoisseurs, and I want to know why we're being taken away. Wh

Celena was utterly terrified by the sudden turn of events. She stared pale-faced at the soldiers around her, not daring to move even a muscle. What was going on?All of a sudden, a man in a uniform stepped into the room. The badge on his shoulder indicated to everyone that he was a general. The heavy thumping of his boots echoed through the silent room with every step he took. All eyes were on him as he stepped onto the stage.He carried himself with great authority, and clearly, this man was not one to be messed with. He scanned the room as if searching for someone. Finally, he announced in a deep, resounding voice, "Do not fear, ladies and gentlemen. We are here on a routine check after receiving a tip-off regarding your conference. We will release you all once we have carried out our investigation, and the process will be quicker and smoother if you all cooperate. "Now, I would kindly request you get your documentation ready so that my men may confirm your identity."Everyone

Derek nodded earnestly and replied, "Of course it's true. My sources have never failed me. I wouldn't have trusted you with this information if I didn't think you'd be interested."Celena stared at him for a moment, then turned to glance in the direction of the people he had pointed. She could not help but be tempted by the offer. She considered this for a few moments, then accepted his offer. "Alright then, Mr. Duncan. I'll go with you. Thank you for inviting me."The smile on Derek's face widened. He could hardly believe his luck—Celena had agreed to go with him! Taking that first step was always the hardest, but he had done it!Unbeknownst to Celena, Derek already knew her long before their first meeting at the conference. Her name was known far and wide in Drunham City, not least because of her beauty, but because of her—in the eyes of the public—tragic marriage. Celena had earned herself a reputation as one of the most beautiful women Drunham City had ever seen, and although
My Invincible Husband Has Returned Chapter 2328
The attention they received, however, was large due to Celena and her young, handsome companion, who was a man named Derek Duncan. Their attractive looks, both individually and combined, were easily the topic of discussion that night. Everyone who laid eyes on them admired both their good looks and brains, for certainly only the cream of the crop were allowed to attend this prestigious event. What made this feat even more impressive was the fact that they were both so young!Aside from her beauty, Celena's name was already known far and wide in the business world, not just because of her strong leadership but due to her association with Liam and her company's connections with many international corporations. She had started her business from scratch, but within a few short months, she had single handedly built it up to become one of the top ten grossing companies in Drunham City.There were hundreds of people gathered there tonight, and their seats had been allocated according to t

The moment Clifford left, Kastor turned to Liam with a wide grin, all hint of his hostility now gone. "Mr. Cole, thank God I arrived just in time."He raised his brows as he said this, and Liam took this to mean he was trying to claim credit. Truth be told, he would have been able to handle things on his own even without Kastor's help, but he decided this was a detail Kastor did not need to know. Instead, he returned Kastor's smile graciously. Kastor, like a child, burst into laughter at this. No further words were exchanged, but they understood the message nonetheless.Jeffrey also grinned. "Kastor, what brings you here all of a sudden?"Kastor replied, "Ah, you might not know this, Mr. Stein, but I actually own this very restaurant that you're sitting in right now. One of my employees called me for help, citing that a brawl was about to break out, so I rushed over immediately. I had no idea it would turn out to be you and Mr. Cole!""Ah, what a pleasant surprise, then!" Jeffrey
My Invincible Husband Has Returned Chapter 2326
Clifford scowled upon hearing this. He cracked his knuckles menacingly as he stared at Kastor through narrowed eyes.Kastor did not seem at all intimidated by this. Instead, he brushed past him and approached Liam, smiling. "Mr. Cole, I apologize for the delay. I rushed over as soon as I heard the news, but I was late anyway. I'm so sorry for the wait."Liam's expression eased up slightly. He tugged the corners of his mouth into a strained smile but did not reply. Clifford's expression turned even more sour when he sensed Kastor's tone. He asked sharply, "What is the meaning of this, Kastor? Are you intent on making me your enemy?"Clifford's reputation was known far and wide, and many feared him, but Kastor was not one of them. He shot Clifford a look of utmost disdain and replied, smirking, "Yes, Clifford, that's exactly what I'm going to do. So what if we will be enemies from now on? What are you going to do about it?"He was confident that Clifford would not dare to retaliate
