Seeing that Liam was troubled, Kendrick thought of an idea and quickly reacted.He pretended that he was wrongfully accused. Looking like he had been wronged, he bellowed, "Liam! You've gone overboard! How could you accuse me when you don't have evidence? You even beat me up!"Liam's eyebrows furrowed, and he looked frostily at Kendrick, who turned the tables on him.Seeing that Liam did not say anything, Kendrick assumed Liam thought he was in the wrong. Kendrick then refused to let it go and asked, "Why aren't you saying anything? Say something! You've gone overboard! How could you suspect that this is my doing? Am I that kind of person?""You know very well who's behind this, so you better watch it." Liam did not bother wasting his breath with Kendrick anymore. Upon saying that frostily, he left the cabin and went to the deck.At that moment, a team of police and a team of coastguards were standing on the deck. They were all holding guns, and they had the remaining pirates unde
Liam frowned a little and ignored Kendrick. He simply said, "Darling, it's getting late. Let's head home."If Kendrick still did not learn his lesson, Liam did not mind giving him a hand.Liam saw that the scenery at Westbridge dock was quite pretty, so he was planning to take Celena on a stroll on his scooter.He did not expect that something like that would happen that night. Celena was pretty shaken up as well. Therefore, they went straight home.Meanwhile, after Cirroc came out of the police station, he was sent to White Blossom Hospital, a famous private hospital in Drunham City.Cirroc was in a high-end VIP room, and his entire head was wrapped up in bandages. Only his eyes and mouth were left exposed.Kendrick had been beaten up, but his injury was not that severe. After he had some basic treatment at the hospital, he came straight to Cirroc's room."How are you doing, Mr. Yacano? Are you alright?" Kendrick entered the room with a gift and smile and walked toward the bed.
Cirroc took a deep breath and calmed his anger down before he said, "This is the first time in my life that I've been beaten up so badly. I can't let this go if I don't teach Liam a good lesson."Besides, if I don't teach that cocky bastard a lesson and word gets out, our family would be embarrassed!"People would think that we're afraid of an insignificant man who married into his wife's family. Even if it's just for the sake of our family pride, I'll have to seek revenge on Liam!"Mr. Quain, I know what you're worried about. Don't worry. I know what I'm doing. I won't spoil my father's plans."Waylon said nothing more. He simply nodded and moved to the side, and then he said, "Alright. I'll do whatever you want, Mr. Yacano."Meanwhile, Kendrick received the news that Cirroc was going to be discharged from the hospital. He dropped whatever he was doing and waited at the entrance of White Blossom Hospital.Kendrick has been busy with his new company ever since he returned from th
Kendrick immediately stopped smiling. He bowed his head at Waylon respectfully and said, "I didn't expect you to be here as well, Mr. Quain."Waylon said nothing. He simply nodded indifferently.Cirroc, however, said with a smile, "Wow. I didn't expect that you would recognize Mr. Quain. It seems he's more famous than me."Kendrick quickly explained with a smile, "Oh, it's just that I once came back to the country to attend a business gala with my father a few years ago when I was still in college. Mr. Quian was there at that time. We only met once, but I've always remembered him."Kendrick kept looking at Waylon with anticipation as he spoke.He thought Waylon could remember him after he jogged his memory. However, Waylon ignored him. He was still looking inside as he stood behind Cirroc.Cirroc did not care much after he listened to Kendrick's explanation. Whether Kendrick knew Waylon or not was not important to him at all."Mr. Hyde, I'll be blunt with you," said Cirroc.He
It was after a while that Cirroc said calmly, "Let's head straight to the Stone Group."Kendrick was delighted, but he did not let it show. He simply replied, "Alright."The car was turned around and headed for the Stone Group. After about half an hour, the Lincoln that was extended was stopped outside the building of the Stone Group.Once Cirroc got out of the car, he straightened his expensive suit. The bandage on his head was already taken off, but he still had a gauze on his nose. However, the big sunglasses that he was wearing were blocking the majority of his face.Waylon stood next to Cirroc while Kendrick and the other two men followed behind them."Let's go." Cirroc sneered as he stared at the entrance of the Stone Group and walked into the building.When they were approaching the big glass door, Kendrick quickly walked to the front, gestured for Corric to enter, and showed him the way with a respectful expression.When the Lincoln was parked at the entrance, the securi
Once Liam's gaze landed on Waylon, his eyebrows furrowed together.That was because Liam sensed a hint of pressure coming from him. Waylon was deliberately holding back the air he exuded, but Liam still immediately sensed it.A sharp gaze gleamed in Liam's eyes. He frowned as he looked at Waylon, smiling knowingly.He did not expect that the Yacano family would have a top fighter with a three-star military king caliber among them.The crowd walked past the pantry very quickly. Cirroc, Kendrick, and the others did not see Liam at all. They just followed Yafe to the reception room in the company.Cirroc sat on the main couch in the middle of the room while Kendrick and Yafe sat on either side of him. The executives of the company were seated as well. Some of them who did not hold high-ranking positions simply stood respectfully on either side of the room.Celena was summoned to the reception room as well. She was sitting across from Cirroc. She was wearing a fitting black skirt sui
After what happened on the yacht, Celena did not like Kendrick and Cirroc much anymore.Once Yafe and the others left, the room became quiet.Both Cirroc and Kendrick did not take their eyes off Celena, and their eyes were filled with strong possessiveness.Celena took a sip of the coffee in front of her and said indifferently, "Mr. Yacano, I wonder what kind of collaboration you would like to talk about."The way Cirroc stared was too blatant. He did not hide his lecherous urge and his strong desire to possess her.His gaze made Celena uncomfortable, and she furrowed her eyebrows together a little.If Cirroc was not the heir of the Yacano family and his father was not the president of the Kingsgate Group, Celena would not want to stay to talk to him at all.Celena's fondness for her childhood friend was greatly reduced after the gathering on the yacht. She was a little more wary of Kendrick.Cirroc laughed and tore his gaze away from Celena. With a knowing smile, he said, "Wha
"Besides, we're not just negotiating with your company alone. We're going to talk to the Thrivo Group, the Eternal Group, and the Everlast Group as well."What the Kingsgate Group has the most is money and resources, so I hope you'll be a smart person who would assess the situation," said Cirroc.Celena was frowning the whole time. She stayed silent for a few seconds after she heard what Cirroc had to say. Then, she replied with a smile, "Mr. Yacano, we hope we can work with the Kingsgate Group as well. But—""But what?" Kendrick chimed in before she could finish. He stood up, and with an eagerness like he was doing it for Celena's sake, he said, "Celena, what are you hesitating about? Do you know how many companies are dying to work with Mr. Yacano but couldn't?"This is such a good chance to let the Stone Group make it into the top ten of the renovation businesses in Drunham City. Do you want to miss out on it?"Celena fell silent upon hearing that.She did not have a good impr
