The situation in the private room was a hot mess at that moment. A group of them was surrounding a couch in a corner of the room, and Henry was lying on the couch, looking as white as a ghost. His breath was weak. It was clear that his life was hanging by a thread.After Liam and the others walked into the room, someone shouted, "Quick! Make way! The legendary doctor is here!"All the people who surrounded Henry immediately moved to either side, creating a path.The Yates family in the room got so excited after they saw Liam. It was as if they met their savior."Please hurry and save Henry!""The legendary Dr. Cole is here! That's great! Henry is saved!""Quick! Move aside, guys. Don't block Dr. Cole's path!"Liam quickly came to Henry's side. Liam frowned as soon as he got a whiff of the thick alcohol smell in the room. He said, "Give Henry some space. Don't surround him. Open the windows and doors of the room as well to get rid of the alcohol smell in the room. Henry needs fre
Xavier flew off the handle. His eyes were burning in rage as he glared at Liam and bellowed, "What did you say? Nobody ever dares to talk to me in that tone. Who the hell do you think you are?""Enough!" Marshall regained his senses and glared at Xavier. Then, he barked frostily, "Xavier, don't be rude to Dr. Cole. Get out of here and wait outside!"Xavier did not think that his father would take Liam's side and berate him, so he got upset."Dad, how could you take his side? He's a liar. It's because of him that Grandpa is in this state. We should be holding him responsible! You can't believe that he's a legendary doctor, right? What if he bears ill will and wants to harm Grandpa?"Xavier was covered with rage, and he kept staring at Liam ferociously as he spoke.Liam ignored Xavier. He looked at Marshall instead and asked with a frozen, "Did you ask me to come to save someone or give me a hard time? Since you don't want me to save Henry, I'll leave now. What's the point of creati
Liam turned his body to the side and dodged Xavier's punch. The silver needle in his hand pieced right into the back of Xavier's neck.Xavier immediately held his neck and let out a scream. Then, he staggered and fell to the floor face first."Ahh!"Xavier's face was already red and swollen, to begin with, but the fall made the swelling worse. He immediately let out a miserable scream."Xavier!" After Xavier fell, a middle-aged woman rushed to him and helped him up. She was anxious as she shouted, "Xavier, are you alright? Are you hurt?"Xavier let out a couple of groans while cupping his face in pain. However, he immediately burst out laughing strangely after that.Everyone in the private room was shocked by him. The middle-aged woman got so frightened that her face turned pale. She quickly grabbed Xavier's arm and shouted, "Xavier, my son, what happened? Don't scare me. What the hell is going on with you?"Xavier was in great pain and wanted to tell her, but he could not con
Thinking of the fact that Liam lied to her, Corie glared at him viciously.Meanwhile, Marshall was heartbroken and furious as he looked at the state his son was in. Glaring at his wife and Xavier, he growled, "Shut the hell up, both of you! Do my words hold no power anymore? Mr. Cole is an important guest that I've invited. He's here to save my father. I won't hold back if anybody dares to offend Mr. Cole."He quickly turned to Liam and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Cole. My son doesn't know any better and has offended you. I apologize to you on his behalf. My father's situation is urgent, so please first save him. I'll make this brat apologize to you properly later."Liam did not give them too much of a hard time. He just hummed calmly. At a quick twist of his wrist, a silver needle appeared between his fingers again. He waved his hand at Xavier's neck, and Xavier immediately stopped laughing uncontrollably and started coughing violently instead.Xavier laughed too hard earlier. Other tha
Everyone held their breath and waited for about ten minutes, and then they saw Liam slowly remove all the needles from Henry's body.Liam glanced at Henry's face and smiled, and then he said, "It's all done. Henry is fine now."Marshall was so nervous that he was clenching his fists tight. He looked at Henry, whose eyes were still shut, and asked in confusion, "A-all done? My father's fine now? But he-"As he spoke, he pointed at Henry, who was still unconscious.He was very humble in front of Liam, but he did not believe him blindly. If Liam could not save Henry, but he lied and made them miss the golden hour to save him, Marshall would make Liam pay.Right at that moment, someone from the corner exclaimed, "Quick! Look! He's awake! This is great! Henry's awake!"As soon as the person said that, everyone in the room looked toward Henry in excitement.Marshall was so thrilled that he rushed to the couch. He looked at Henry and shouted, "Dad! You're finally awake! You've scared t
Liam held the expensive and lavish black card and said with a smile, "You're too kind. I must save the dying and heal the wounded."The black card was very rare and was something countless people would kill for. However, it was nothing special to Liam. As the commander-in-chief of the Pendragon Warriors, Liam had many properties. He was never very interested in materialistic things. However, to avoid having unnecessary trouble, he accepted the card. If he did not accept anything, the Yates family would probably suspect even more that he had an ulterior motive.Marshall was a little surprised as well. He did not think that Henry would give Liam this card, but he did not have any opinions about it. "Just accept it. This is a limited edition card that was issued in conjunction with the anniversary of our company. As long as you have this card, you can frequent any of the properties under the Yates Group free of charge in the future."Marshal explained the usage of the black card
Corie had no choice but to give up after she heard what Liam said. After she bid Liam goodbye, she left The Royal Terrace Restaurant with Yennifer.It was after Liam watched the two beautiful ladies leave that he let out a sigh of relief and got ready to head home.As soon as Liam turned around, he sensed an unusual gaze staring at him from behind. Liam did not even need to think to figure out what was going on.Liam pretended not to know and made a call as he stood by the street. Then, he got into a cab.Right as his cab drove off, the engine of a black vehicle that was parked across the restaurant started, and it followed Liam's cab.Kaison was sitting in the car. His broken hand was already in a cast. He was staring in the cab in front of him with a ferocious expression."Damn you, Liam. Tonight, I'll make sure you regret everything you've done!" Kaison said through gritted teeth, clenching his other fist so tight that his knuckles popped.He was looking at the cab ahead of h
Liam did not ask to be dropped off at home and instead ordered the driver to bring him to Peak Street, one of the most renowned red light districts in the Northern District of Drunham City.The streets had changed drastically the moment the car turned onto Peak Street, with pubs, bars, strip clubs, and massage parlors lining both sides of the narrow avenue. Peak Street was one of the most happening places in Drunham City at night, but there was a stark difference from the laid back nightlife that could be found in other parts of the city. Peak Street was a watershed area that did not fall under any of the Drunham City council's reign, and thus, it had developed into a rowdy, lawless area quite out of the government's control.Neon lights twinkled at Liam from all directions, and there were throes of raunchy women dressed in skimpy clothing standing on either side of the street. Groups of teenagers and gangsters stumbled out of pubs, most of them inebriated and flirted incessantly wit
