Chapter 1543

Author: Voice From Heaven
Back in the security room, Kendall found Liam lounging on the couch like he owned the place, surrounded by offerings of fruit, coffee, and cigarettes, as if he were the guest of honor.

The eager-to-please new guards hovered around him, all smiles and nods, hanging on Liam's every word.

Not everyone in the department knew Liam by face, but his reputation was well-known: the skilled personal bodyguard of none other than Manager Ms. Bristow. The juiciest bit? The persistent whispers that he was more than just her bodyguard—he was rumored to be her boyfriend.

Unconfirmed as it was, the rumor was enough to keep the new guards from stepping on Liam's toes. They practically revered the guy.

Liam was halfway through his snack of fruit and sipping coffee when the security office door flew off its hinges with a bang.

A mountain of a man in a security uniform barged in, flanked by two equally imposing figures, their faces storm clouds of fury.

The junior guards jumped, one spinning around

    If Liam got roughed up in the security office, how on earth would they explain it to Kendall? "Scram!" Ricardo, already a ticking time bomb, was incensed when a lowly security guard dared to intervene. With a scowl and a snarl, he barked and then landed a fierce kick on the guard, shouting, "Who do you think you are to speak here? Get out, or you'll be next!" No sooner had he spoken than Ricardo's two henchmen followed suit, their faces stormy as they herded the rest of the guards out of the office and slammed the door shut, locking it tight.Ricardo spun around, his eyes icy as they locked onto Liam. With a mocking laugh, he wasted no time, flicking on his stun baton and jabbing it at Liam's gut.A crackling noise filled the air, quickly followed by the acrid smell of burning flesh.Thud!A body hit the floor hard, the impact so heavy it seemed to shake the ground itself. Ricardo was no lightweight, that was for sure.The two guards by the door were still processing the scene w

    The guard jerked as the shock hit him, convulsing wildly before his baton clattered to the ground. He slumped down, eyes rolling back. Liam watched the guard crumple with a mirthless chuckle, then kicked him in the gut. The guard flew like a ragdoll, slamming into the office door and leaving a human-shaped crater.The lone security guard left standing was gripping his baton, his face etched with sheer panic, sweat beading on his forehead. Liam shot him a chilling look, and the guard shook like a leaf, dropping his baton and bowing deeply, pleading through tears, "Mr. Cole... I'm sorry, I was wrong, please don't hit me... Forgive me, I realize my mistake... I had no choice. Mr. Nicoson told us to come after you. He's the company's VP, and he'd fire me if I disobeyed..."Mr. Cole, have mercy, I'm not to blame..."The guard was a mess, sobbing and begging, darting glances at his downed colleague and Ricardo still sprawled on the floor, fear gripping him anew. No wonder he was Ms. Bri

    With that, Liam stepped off. The guard scrambled up, bolting from the security department, not even glancing back at Ricardo and his buddy still sprawled on the floor.The young guard sprinted from the security office to the company's front gate, gasping for air. Glancing back and seeing no sign of Liam, he allowed himself a moment of intense relief.Fumbling for his phone, he dialed Ivar's number with shaking hands.Ivar's icy voice cut through the moment the call connected. "What's up? Is it done?"Swallowing hard, the guard replied, "Mr. Nicoson, we've got trouble. Captain Abaden's out cold. Liam got him, and the rest of us took a beating too...""What!?"Fresh out of the hospital with his arm in a sling, Ivar exploded with fury at the entrance, unleashing a string of curses."You're all useless! Can't handle the simplest task—what do I pay you for? To mess around?"You let one bodyguard take you down? All of you?"Useless, a lot of you! You're done! Don't bother showing up

    Xora had Ivar all figured out. With just one move, she managed to douse the flames of his fury. His face was still a storm cloud, but it was a touch lighter than before. Ivar shoved his phone down the front of Xora's shirt and, without missing a beat, his hand landed with a thud on her backside, his eyes glinting with a dark edge. "What else could it be but Liam? I'm going to put him in his place, show him what happens when he crosses me!!" he growled.The mention of Liam soured Xora's expression too. She spat out, "Mr. Nicoson, Liam is insufferable. You're the company's VP, and he doesn't show you an ounce of respect, even has the nerve to get physical with you!"Confusion flickered across her face as she continued, "Mr. Nicoson, I don't get it. You're the VP. Why do you let Liam, just a bodyguard, keep challenging you?"She should not have brought it up. The mere mention reignited Ivar's anger, and he snapped, "You think I don't want to sort him out? Did you forget about Sunniva a

    Every time Liam crossed his mind, a tidal wave of anger threatened to overflow. Right then, hearing Xora's words only fueled his impatience. He was seething at the thought of not being able to sort Liam out that very instant and then toss him out of Drunham City for good.Without wasting a moment, Xora whipped out her phone, scrolled through her contacts, and made a call. Her smile was alluring as she cooed into the phone, "Isandro, it's me. Remember me?"There was a brief silence on the line before a deep voice responded, "Who is this?"Xora, who had expected her beauty to be unforgettable, felt a twinge of awkwardness as her smile faltered.Still smiling, she pressed on, "Isandro, you must have a lot on your plate to forget little old me. It's Xora, remember?"Recognition dawned on Isandro, and his tone warmed up. "Ah, Xora! What's the occasion for your call today? Need something from me?"Casting a quick glance at Ivar, who was intently watching her, Xora replied with a grin,

    "Are you okay, Ms. Nacht?" Liam asked, the picture of chivalry.Holly, caught off guard by the collision and the subsequent realization that she had been in Liam's arms, blushed fiercely and retreated several steps. She touched her hair nervously, trying to hide her embarrassment. "Ah... I... I'm fine," she managed to say, her voice faltering. Her cheeks were then the color of ripe apples as she scurried away from Liam.Watching Holly's flustered exit, Liam shook his head with a wry smile. "This girl," he muttered to himself.Back at his desk with time to kill, Liam pulled out his phone and started scrolling through the latest viral videos, chuckling at the absurdity. Before he knew it, the clock struck past four. The emergency meeting that had convened the department heads earlier had wrapped up, and one by one, the managers emerged from the conference room, their faces etched with concern and haste.The marketing department was thick with tension as the managers returned to their

    Liam had some inkling of the project's significance, and he was well aware of the blood, sweat, and tears Sunniva had poured into it.Lost in thought, his reverie was broken by Thora's boss stepping in."Mr. Cole, the boss is back—I've got to run."With that, Thora scooped up the papers from her desk and scurried back to her workstation.After a moment's deliberation, Liam decided to lend Sunniva a helping hand. No sooner had the thought crossed his mind than he grabbed his phone and ducked into the restroom.He dialed Kolten and laid out the Bristow Group's dire straits. Kolten, on the other end, grasped the gravity of the situation immediately.Kolten asked with a polite tone, "Mr. Cole, could you clarify what you mean?"Liam gave a nonchalant hum and said, "Take a look and handle it for me, will you? Put some investment into the Bristow Group over in Drunham City.""Sure thing, I'll get on it right away," Kolten replied with a nod.After ending the call, Liam stepped out

    Liam's eyebrows were tightly furrowed. He immediately figured out what was going on as soon as he turned back and glanced at the living room.Since he did not set an appointment with Joseph, then there could only be one possibility—someone was impersonating Mr. Miller and contacted Celena.Celena had been tricked.Once Joseph realized what was going on, he quickly said over the phone, "Someone must be impersonating you and got in contact with your wife. Don't worry. I'll go find out what's going on right away.""Mmhmm. You have to hurry!" Liam hung up the call upon saying that. His expression darkened, and his gaze was bone-chilling. Who the hell had the audacity to trick Celena by impersonating him?Right as Liam was still trying to guess who it was who pretended to be him, Celena suddenly knocked on the door and urged, "Liam, are you ready?"Liam put away his phone, quickly got changed, and replied, "I'll be done soon. I'm putting on my clothes."Liam got dressed in an insta

    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
