"Fine! Since you keep saying that I'm a jinx, Liam's a loser, and our family is bad luck, Liam and I will leave the Stone family. We won't stay in this family anymore. Don't any of you think about criticizing us and taking Liam away!"Celena said that very loudly. Her tone was icy and firm. That left the crowd who were present all stunned.All of them, especially Yafe, widened their eyes in disbelief because of what Liam said.Perhaps they did not expect that Celena, who was always submissive, would say that she wanted to leave the Stone family. Yafe was even stuttering as he asked, "Wh-what d-did you say?"Cheryl was shocked! Feeling surprised and suspicious, she asked in return, "What are you trying to pull, Celena?"She did not believe Celena would leave the Stone family on her own. She saw how much Celena wanted to return to the family back then.Cheryl did not forget that Celena went as far as kneeling before her in front of Stone Mansion just to meet Reginald back then. T
A frosty look gleamed in Yafe's eyes upon hearing what Cheryl said. After he pondered for a moment, he barked furiously, "Hmph! They are the ones who started this. Even if they wanted to leave the Stone family, they'd have to first go and apologize to the Yacano family."Yafe waved his hand and shouted frostily at the household staff behind him, "Kick down the door! You have to tie Liam up and send him to the Yacano family!""Yes, sir!" the household staff roared. All of them looked ferocious as they wielded their weapons and rushed toward the main entrance of the mansion.However, before they could get close, the door suddenly opened.Liam appeared in front of the crowd, exuding a frosty air, leaving the household staff stunned.He had a bone-chilling gaze as he stared at those staff and said icily, "I'm here to inform all of you that my wedding with Celena is in three days. You can attend if you wish to. It's fine if you don't want to. Celena and I don't need your witness and bl
Yafe regained his senses in the next second, but Liam still grabbed him by the collar and lifted him.Liam looked frosty and was out for blood as he said, "Yafe, I'm warning you. Behave yourself if you don't wish to die. I've been tolerating you in the past out of respect for Celena."Now that she wants to leave the Stone family, I won't tolerate you for challenging my limits because you're Celena's father."Liam threw Yafe to the side upon saying that.Yafe fell to the ground with a thud, hitting the stone tiles so hard that he was left in pain. Before he could regain his senses, he heard Liam's frosty voice ringing in his ear once again."Fuck off if you don't want to die!"All the Stone family members gasped.Did Liam mean he would beat Yafe up as well if he dared to piss him off again? How bold of him!Yafe was already hurting all over after he was thrown to the ground, and he got even more furious after what Liam said. He was going to get up and curse at Liam, but he sa
Tears welled up in Liam's eyes and he hugged Celena tightly. He was steadfast as he promised, "I won't! I would never leave you, darling! I would stay by your side and face everything with you even if the whole world abandoned you."Liam patted Celena's back gently as he said that. He seemed to have a catch in his throat as well, and he continued, "You and Jovie are my whole world, silly. How could I ever bear to leave you guys?"Celena could not hold back her emotions anymore once she heard that. She hugged Liam and burst into tears. She kept apologizing and said, "I'm sorry, Liam. It's all my fault. "I was weak, I couldn't bear to give up on this familial relationship that barely existed, and I kept hesitating. If it wasn't because of that, you never would have suffered so many grievances in the family."I'm sorry. It's all my fault."Liam never cared much about all that. He did not think that Celena was always thinking about it. He felt touched as he listened to Celena talking
Liam thought about it briefly while looking at the text, but he agreed in the end. As he replied to the text, he explained to Celena, "I won't be having dinner at home tonight. I'll be meeting a friend to talk about something."Celena nodded. She did not overthink about it. She just agreed.Soon, it was nightfall. Liam went to the address Corie gave him and saw her standing in front of the restaurant from afar. She waited for a long time.Liam glanced at the time. There was still some time to go before their appointment. He thought he was late. Corie saw Liam. She waved at him from afar with a delightful smile on her face.Liam did not dilly-dally and walked up to her with a smile. It was after he got closer that he saw that Corie was wearing a strappy long dress with a low-cut design.Half of her chest was showing in that black dress, and the color of the dress made her skin look so fair as if she was glowing.That was not all. The dress had a slit that ran up her thigh, leavi
Liam could not help himself and rolled his eyes at Corie. The trick she pulled did not work on him at all. He got up right away and said calmly, "If you don't want to tell me, just forget it. I have something else to take care of, so I'm going to leave now."Corie almost exploded in anger after she saw that Liam was going to leave. She quickly got up to stop him and said, "Wait! Hold on! You've got to be kidding me. Are you going to leave?"Was this damn Liam a man? He was so dense! Did he not know that pretty ladies always need some persuading?Liam glanced at her and said helplessly, "Didn't you say you don't want to tell me about it anymore?""You—" Corie was stunned. Thinking of the goal she met up with Liam that day, she said helplessly, "Alright. Fine. I give up. You win. Let's just sit down and get down to business."She could have just done so earlier.After Liam took his seat again, Corie cut straight to the chase and said, "Did you break Cirroc's thing?"Liam figured
"It doesn't matter." A frosty gaze gleamed in Liam's eyes as he continued with a grin, "If the Yacano family wants to attack me, they'll have to be ready to pay the price!"Corie was stunned by what she heard, and she looked at Liam with curiosity.For some reason, Corie had a feeling that the man in front of her was more than led on.A mere bodyguard could not have the confidence and domineering might Liam exuded in every move he made.However, what frightened Corie was still the big shot of the Yacano family. She heard that the person was coming back.Thinking of that, Corie looked slightly fearful and her body trembled a little as well. "Liam, do you have no idea? Do you know how many expert fighters the Yacano family has? }"They have about five that were of military king caliber. Not only that, but they have a core member who's a general on duty in the war zone."That general is very powerful. I heard he's at the level of God of War. A God of War!"To an average person, a
Liam was not an unappreciative person. Corie had her purpose, but she was indeed worried about him.Liam gave it a thought and said with a grin, "Thank you, Ms. Doyle. Is there anything else you want to talk to me about?"They finally got to the main point. Corie put on a serious look and quickly said, "Oh yes. Do you still have more of the pill you gave Henry the last time?"Liam frowned upon hearing that and looked at Corie skeptically.Corie instantly understood what he was thinking, so she quickly explained, "Don't misunderstand. I'm not trying to get it to save Cirroc. I'm just asking if you still have any. I want to study it."Liam shook his head and said helplessly, "No, that was the only one."Corie was disappointed. Her family had been practicing medicine for years. She has been extremely interested in medical knowledge since childhood. She wanted to study the pill ever since she saw Liam saving a life with it. She just never had the chance to ask Liam.She did not expe
