Holly understood what was the hard thing her body was coming in contact with, so her cheeks flushed and her breathing became a little harder. She just looked incredibly uncomfortable.There were many people on the bus, so there was no way for Holly to change a spot, even if she wanted to. Liam, on the other hand, seemed to have his feet cemented on the floor. He remained standing firmly behind her every time the bus shook or ran over a bump.Holly's cheeks became more and more flushed after a few more touches. She opened her mouth a few times, but she was too embarrassed to talk about it.In the end, Holly could not hold back anymore because of the shame and the uneasiness she felt. Her voice was way more delicate because of the embarrassment as she said, "Uhm, Liam, could you move back a little."She was practically gritting her teeth to finish her sentence, and her face was as red as a tomato.Liam found it a little strange. There were people behind him as well, so there was no
No matter how ignorant Liam was, he noticed something was off. Looking at Holly's bashful face, he took out the quintuple-edged dagger from his pocket calmly. Then, smiled at Holly and said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Nacht. This is a weapon I'm packing when I'm working,"He did not put the dagger back into his pocket after that. He strapped it on his belt instead.Liam looked calm, but he was feeling a little relieved deep down. He was a married man. It would be bad if some misunderstanding was created.Holly was stunned after she saw Liam taking out the dagger, and her face became even more flushed.It turned out the thing she was touching all the while was the dagger. She did not think it would be such a huge misunderstanding, so she was deeply embarrassed.Right at that moment, the bus arrived at their stop. Because of the misunderstanding earlier, Holly rushed to get out as she could not wait to leave anymore.However, Holly was standing by the window, and a middle-aged woman in fron
Holly's bashful expression was completely gone as she listened to Liam's explanation. She had a long face and was crossing her arms in front of her. Looking like she saw through Liam, she said frostily, "Hmph! Liam, I don't believe you're that kind. I think you're just trying to argue your way out of this!"Liam smiled helplessly. He was never so wrong.He was prepared to continue explaining. After all, he was a married man. If there was any misunderstanding and Celena found out about it, then he would be dead meat, would he not?However, a sneer could be heard coming from behind Liam before he could say anything.Liam's expression darkened, and he turned back with a frown. He then saw the Cruiser, the tattooed young man he pulled away from on the bus earlier. Cruiser was walking up to Liam with two young thugs who were covered in tattoos following behind him.Cruiser had a wry smile and stared right at Liam.Holly saw the three tattooed young thugs as well, and her expression
The two thugs sneered and walked toward Liam at Cruiser's command.However, Cruiser was slapped by Liam so hard in the next second that he was dazed even before he could get closer to Holly.The slap was so loud and clear that Cruiser was left dumbfounded "How dare you slap me?" Cruiser covered his cheek which was quickly turning red and swollen. Glaring at Liam, he bellowed, "Do you know who I am? How dare you lay your hand on me! This is perfect! You're the first person in a long time who has the guts to hit me!"He was seeing red as he turned to his minions and barked"Guys, get him! Kill him! I'll show him how powerful I am!"Liam, on the other hand, was still standing in place calmly. He looked at Cruiser and said with a sneer, "Are you blind? How dare you move closer to her? Didn't you see that I'm still standing here?"Holly did not expect Liam would act so quickly and strike without hesitation, so she was stunned as well.As she looked at Liam's profile, she suddenly fel
Two miserable screams and a crisp cracking of bones could be heard.Cruiser's wrist was twisted and broken by Liam. The other thug was sent flying for four meters before crashing into a pile of garbage by the street."Ah!" The thug was dazed. His head was spinning as he lay in the garbage after he crashed into it, holding his stomach as he wailed in pain.Cruiser's wrist was broken by Liam. The excruciating pain that came from his wrist made his face flushed. His forehead was immediately covered with a layer of sweat."You—How dare you break my wrist! Do you know who I—" Cruiser endured the piercing pain and wanted to threaten Liam with a ferocious face?However, before he could finish, Liam twisted Cruiser's wrist a little harder, leaving Cruiser grimacing in pain once again."Ahh! It hurts!"Liam was twisting Cruiser's arm and looking icily at the other thug who was near Holly. His voice was icy as he asked, "What's the matter? Do you still want to make a move?"The last rema
The thug at the bottom threw up a mouthful of blood after his friend crushed him, and he lay on the ground in excruciating pain.Seeing that left Cruiser stunned.All three of them looked terrifying, but they were nothing. They were only capable of bullying some common folks. However, once they ran into someone tougher, they could only admit defeat.Cruiser was scared after he saw that Liam was so strong. He watched in fear as Liam walked up to him, getting so frightened that his face turned white.Cruiser quickly got on his knees and begged in tears, "S-sir, I-I was wrong. Please spare my life."Liam stood in front of Cruiser, looking down at him icily as he said, "I think I've given you guys a chance earlier. You guys wish to go to hell, and I don't mind sending you there."Cruiser's body stiffened. He was so frightened by Liam that his entire body started shaking and he peed his pants."Please forgive me, sir. I know I'm wrong."Cruiser kept begging, wailing with all his mig
Holly's voice was very soft. On top of that, Cruiser and the other two men were begging continuously. Their voices simply drowned Holly's out.The three men thought Holly was not willing to forgive them, so they got so anxious that their foreheads were covered in sweat.Seeing that, Liam said icily, "Why are you still here? Do you want me to escort you away?""Huh? Oh!""No need. No need. We'll get out of there right now!"At first, Cruiser and the others were stunned after they heard what Liam said. Then, they quickly got up, supporting each other as they scurried off as if they were being chased by a ghost.Liam had a cold gaze as he watched the three young men flee the scene. Then, he turned to smile at Holly and said, "It's alright now, Ms. Nacht. They're gone. Everything is fine."Holly was a little embarrassed as she thought of the things she said to Liam earlier when she misunderstood him. She smiled and said, "Liam, I'm sorry that I was wrong about you earlier, and I sai
"Even if your project was a success and the medication was developed, you don't have the sales channel. In the end, you'll have no choice but to collaborate with us, the Jade Lotus Pharma Group."Without us to provide you with the sales channel, your company wouldn't be able to sell the new medication off no matter how great it is."Morrison took a sip of his drink upon saying that. A frosty look gleamed in his eyes at the same time.At first, he thought he could wrap Sunniva around his fingers and make the Bristow Group agree to his terms after he pulled out his investment. To his surprise, however, Sunniva found a new investor very quickly. Never in a million years had Morrison expected that.So what if the Bristow Group found a new investor?The Jade Lotus Pharma Group was in control of most of the medication sales channels in the entire Druhham City, as well as a few cities in the surrounding areaMorrison was very confident this time. That was because Sunniva couldn't be a
