Nevaeh became upset as she listened to the lustful laughter from those lecherous men. She touched her waist out of habit, and it was only then she realized she had not take her gun with her when she came out that night.Even so, Nevaeh did not feel afraid. Being leered at by those men made her furious, and she bellowed, "How dare you! Not only did you stir up trouble in the streets, but you had the guts to humiliate a police officer. I have the right to arrest all of you!"Nevaeh walked up toward those thugs. Her voluptuous chest bounced along with every step she took, and those men could not take their eyes off of it"Seeing that Nevaeh was getting closer, one of the burly men walked up to her with a lewd smile, rubbing his palms together. He was ready to put his dirty paws on her shoulder.However, in the next second, he let out a scream, "Ah!"Nevaeh grabbed the man's hands and kicked him in the crotch violently. The man screamed with his back arched.That was not all. She imm
After the leader found his balance, he rubbed his shoulders which were slightly numb after Nevaeh punched him. He had a ferocious sneer as he said, "So what if you're a little skilled in combat, sweetie? Have you seen how many of us are here? Do you think you can beat us all?"Be sensible and stand at the side. After we take care of this young man, we'll take you to have some fun. Otherwise, don't cry when your pretty face gets bruised later."Nevaeh narrowed her eyes and looked daggers at the leader. Her voice was frosty as she said, "The audacity that you have! Are you going to attack a police officer? Put down your weapon now. Put your hand on your head and squat down."Not only was the leader not scared, but he laughed hysterically. With a wicked grin on his face, he teased, "So, you're a cop just because you say so? Do you think we're easy to fool? If you're a cop, then I'm the police chief. Why don't you salute me instead?"A man at the side gigged in a lewd way and echoed, "
"Hahaha!" Unexpectedly, the leader laughed hysterically instead. He did not give a damn about Nevaeh at all.With disdain written all over his face, he said, "So what if you're a police officer? Do you think we'll be scared of you? Stay at the side if you're sensible, sweetie. Don't blame me for not showing you mercy otherwise. Don't cry when my men make their moves later."Nevaeh flew into a rage and said icily, "Fantastic. Since you won't listen when I'm talking to you nicely, I won't hold back anymore!"She clenched her fists and stretched her neck. Since those thugs were so stubborn, she would just beat all of them up and take them back to the police station.The leader truly did not take Nevaeh seriously at all. He had a frosty glint in his eyes and an eerie grin on his lips as he said, "Guys, it seems this chick had no idea how powerful we are. Let's show it to her today."One of the burly thugs stepped forward while rubbing his hands together. With a big lecherous grin, he
However, no matter how much Nevaeh struggled, the person behind her kept holding her tight. Seeing that the person in front of her was about to pounce, Nevaeh became so scared that she just closed her eyes.Unexpectedly, the person did not pounce on her. Instead, she heard a few people falling to the ground. The weight that was pressed against her back was gone as well.Nevaeh opened her eyes and saw a few thugs lying on the ground. The thug behind her was lifted in the air by his collar by Liam as well. The thug made a full circle in the air and was sent flying off.At a loud thud, the thug crashed into a steel trash can by the side of the street that was five meters away, flattening it completely. He curled up on the ground in pain and moaned miserably.Nevaeh was stunned. She did not think that Liam would be so violent. He picked up the muscular thug with just one hand.Liam dusted his hands off calmly as if he just touched something dirty. Then, he said with a big smile, "It's
After Nevaeh was pushed to the side, her cheeks turned rosy for some reason as she watched Liam's sharp movements. The way she looked at Liam became a little more bashful. Meanwhile, she felt worried and anxious as she saw the thugs charging at Liam with their weapons.Her worries grew the more she thought about it. After she glanced at Liam, who was in a fight, she gritted her teeth and ran toward the side of the road.Nevaeh ran to her car and called the police station. Worrying that Liam was no match for those people, she threw her phone away and ran back without even closing the car door as she wanted to help.However, by the time she got back, she noticed all the thugs were lying on the ground. The leader's head was covered in blood, and he was lying on his belly while Liam stepped on his back.Liam had one hand in his pocket and looked down at the leader. He stepped hard on the leader's back and asked casually, "Weren't you very cocky earlier? Didn't you want to kill me? Do
At a loud bang, the front of the black car caved in because of the kick from Liam. The car was also sent flying for a few meters because of the powerful force.Liam's expression was frosty as he stared at the car with a sharp gaze. His voice was bone-chilling as he said, "Wasyl, get the hell out of the car if you don't want to die!"Nevaeh was so shocked by what she saw that she gasped and covered her mouth while her eyes widened. That was too terrifying.Liam was able to damage the front of the car with just a kick.Wasyl was like a deer caught in the headlights as he sat in the car. His face was filled with fear as he looked at how furious Liam was.Liam noticed the black car as soon as it drove up. At first, he thought the car was just passing by. However, when he saw the car stopping by the roadside, he sensed that something was off.Then, he saw Wasyl in the car at a glance. He did not expect that Wasyl would be so bold. He did not even go looking for Wasyl, yet Wasyl came
How would Wasyl have the guts to get out of the car? He was so frightened as he looked at Liam that his soul almost left his body. He kept flooring the gas while feeling terrified, but the car did not budge at all."Liam, I've truly learned that I was wrong. I would stay far away from you if I were to meet you in the future. I'm begging you, please forgive me," Wasyl pleaded.Liam had a frosty grin as he replied, "Get out of the car now if you don't want to die. Save the nonsense."Liam exerted force with his foot once again as he spoke. The car immediately started rattling as the hood was completely caved in. "Ah!" Wasyl was so frightened that he shouted. His heart was about to jump out of his chest. He was feeling such an extreme panic that rage started surging within him."Liam, don't go overboard! So what if I'm trying to give you a hard time? You provoked me over and over again and embarrassed me so terribly. If it weren't for that, would I hire someone to teach you a lesson
"Wh-what are you trying to do?" Wasyl coughed.He held his neck and stared at Liam in fear. His entire body could not stop shaking, and he kept backing away.Liam looked down at him and sneered. He stepped on Wasyl's chest, and Wasyl's face quickly became flushed again.Liam exerted force with his foot and said icily, "It's just the Abbott Group. Do you think I would be afraid? Even if the king came, he wouldn't be able to save you today, much less your father. Do you think I'm easy to mess with just because I didn't teach you a lesson?"Liam was truly infuriated. At first, he did not plan to go after Wasyl. However, he did not expect that Wasyl would keep challenging his limit over and over again."G-great! You truly have a death wish!"Wasyl hugged Liam's leg tightly. Seeing the way Liam looked, he knew it was no use for him to submit himself to him, so he stopped begging for mercy.He knew Liam was ruthless and was never going to yield. Since that was the case, there was no n
Liam saw Sunniva was up and wasted no time, saying. "Ms. Bristow, we've got gang trouble at the hotel. It's not safe. We're bailing to a new place," he said.Without skipping a beat, Liam and Sunniva were out of there, speeding off to another hotel in the car.Little did they know, as soon as they left, a convoy of black SUVs pulled up ominously at the hotel's grand entrance.The streets surrounding the hotel suddenly buzzed with the arrival of several new cars. Their occupants spilled out, pacing the perimeter with a clear intent to surveil.From the lineup of rugged SUVs at the hotel's entrance, a squad of men clad in black, brandishing weapons burst forth. They stormed the hotel, their presence ominous and unchallenged.The receptionists, staff, and patrons were petrified, cowering in corners, none daring to confront the intruders.The men made a beeline for Liam's last known location, only to find the room deserted.The ringleader cursed under his breath, "Damn it! He's slip
Each victim was marked with a triangle tattoo, a calling card that did not go unnoticed. Someone had snapped a picture of it before the hotel staff even showed up and had split.Liam passed the photo to Cirocco and Calum, and it hit them like a ton of bricks. Calum scrunched up his face and said, "Sir, this is Alpha's tag. They're big-time hitmen around Rasford City."They're known for their love of curved blades, and that triangle is their signature."Cirocco had been doing some digging too and came back with chilling news about Noel. "Sir, we got the why. Someone's put a three million dollar price tag on your head, right there on the hit list!""Moreover, the bounty was so colossal that it had all the shadowy players in Rasford City licking their chops. A coalition of forces was now banding together, plotting a takedown that had you in their crosshairs."Cirocco's face was a mask of ice as he spoke, and Calum's features were twisted in a scowl.Liam chuckled darkly, the quint
The new plan was a hit; every assassin in the room was on board.One of them, posing as a bellhop, stood at Liam's door, ready to knock.However, he never saw it coming. Before his knuckles could rap on the door, it burst open from the inside.Wham!The would-be knocker was sent flying, slamming into the corridor wall with a thunderous crash.The others barely had time to register what happened when Liam burst out, a quintuple-edged dagger in hand.He was a shadow among them, his blade a flash of silver that danced across their wrists, disarming them of their scimitars.In moments, the hallway was a cacophony of clattering blades and piercing screams that filled the hotel.The leader, clutching his bleeding wrist, stared at Liam in horror, leaning casually against the doorframe. Liam's dagger dripped crimson. He watched the fallen assassins with an unfeeling smirk."You think you can play assassins, skulking around in the dark?" Liam's voice dripped with scorn. With a casual f
Noel was a name that turned heads in Rasford City, especially since the Noel family ran a successful pharmaceutical business. In any place, those in the medicine game hold sway, and Noel was no stranger to the city's shadowy bigwigs. After all, nobody was immune to getting sick!Noel was quickly taken to the hospital for emergency care. Meanwhile, the assassin he had hired had pinpointed the hotel where Liam and Sunniva were hiding out.Sunniva was still visibly shaken when they reached the hotel. Too frightened to be alone, she could only gaze at Liam with watery eyes, silently pleading to stay in his room.Liam, left with little choice, let Sunniva take his room while he made do with the couch in the living room.After the night's earlier ordeal, combined with the alcohol and the drug slipped into her drink, Sunniva washed up and promptly fell asleep in Liam's bed.Liam, however, remained on the living room sofa, poring over the mysterious Arcane Manuscript.Out of nowhere,
"Thud!"Then, without missing a beat, Liam grabbed Noel by the throat and landed another punch on him. He struck him squarely on the chin, dislocating it and forcing a couple more of his teeth to fly out. "Ahhh!" Noel shrieked. His face was swelling up to twice its usual size, and he could not help letting out a cry of agony. Liam did not stop there, though. His fists rained down all over Noel without ceasing, his every punch striking where it hurt the most. "F*ck! You're going to pay for this!" Noel grunted. He would make this twat pay! What gave him the right to attack him? He was an heir of the great Noel bloodline, and he would make this cocky, self-righteous prat pay!Liam scoffed, then swung his fist and struck Noel squarely in his abdomen.Noel spat out a mouthful of blood, unable to utter another word from the sheer pain, but this did not stop Liam. The next moment, he grabbed Noel by the hair and bashed his head against the wall behind him.A sickening crunch alerted
The words had barely left her mouth when Noel lost his patience, swung Sunniva around and slapped her hard across the cheek. "D*mn it, you f*cking sl*t! What the f*ck are you shouting for? Let me tell you this—no one will come to save you, not even if you cry yourself hoarse!"The slap came so abruptly that Sunniva was momentarily stunned. Her cheek soon swelled up, and a bright red mark in the shape of Noel's palm began to take shape. Noel had hit her so hard that the back of her head struck the wall behind her, and all she could feel was an intense, throbbing pain that reverberated through her skull. Blood seeped out of the cut on the back of her head, and she could feel the warm liquid trickle down her neck. She suddenly felt strangely faint and stopped resisting. Noel seized the opportunity to strip her naked, grinning. "Ms. Bristow, I suggest you stop wasting your energy. You're mine tonight, and there's no running now!"He had long since heard of Sunniva's beauty, and he was
"Mr. Noel? What is the meaning of this?" Sunniva shrieked in alarm. Noel was wiping his face with a towel when she spoke, and upon hearing her voice, he slowly moved toward her. "Ms. Bristow, do I really need to spell this out for you? You're a gorgeous woman, and I admire you very much. There's nothing to be afraid of, darling. We're all adults here, so there's no need to be shy. I promise that I'll make this the most memorable night you've ever had. "Ms. Bristow, do you know how many women would die to be in your position? Women everywhere bend over backwards to keep me happy, and most of them are willing to please me just to get my business. If you still want this partnership, you better be a good girl and keep me satisfied. If not…"Noel trailed off, for at this point, he had already reached the bed and was just inches away from Sunniva. His flesh quivered with his every move, and he was so tall that he loomed over Sunniva's tiny body like a beast eyeing its prey. "You… you
Noel was not used to being rejected so outwardly. Sunniva's indifference infuriated him greatly. He scoffed, then brought his hand up to his nose and took a deep breath as if trying to catch a whiff of any scent that Sunniva had left on his skin. He sneered. "Ms. Bristow, it seems you are intent on challenging me?"Sunniva replied curtly, "So what if I am?""Very well then! You like to do things the hard way, eh? Let me make this clear—the moment you step out the door, the partnership will be called off! I will no longer do business with Bristow Group!"The audacity!With a smug grin, Noel cast Sunniva one last look before returning to his seat. He watched her coolly and made no move to stop her from leaving again, for he knew he had her cornered. Sunniva stood rooted to the spot, her brows furrowed in deep concentration. Noel knew he had Sunniva caught in a dead-end situation. He smirked and raised his glass to his lips. "How about this, Ms. Bristow? Just one last drink with
A glimmer of annoyance flashed through Noel's eyes, but he continued to reach toward Sunniva, grinning. "Ms. Bristow, I really, really admire you…"Sunniva froze. The next moment, she leaped to her feet, still holding her wine glass, and ducked out of Noel's reach. She replied, raising his glass in an attempt to disguise her nervousness, "Mr. Noel, I greatly admire your success as a businessman as well. Cheers to our partnership!"Noel's arm hovered in mid-air, looking awkward and forlorn as it dangled out of reach of its target. A strained silence fell over them. The tension lasted only a few minutes, though, because Noel soon regained his composure and drew his arm back. He clinked his glass against Sunniva's as though nothing out of the ordinary had happened. The two of them had been drinking for quite some time now, and Noel was growing more and more inebriated by the minute. He was a pale man, and so the alcohol gave him an unnatural flush that made him look as though he was
