Celena was no one's fool. The same man who looked at her with barely concealed contempt yesterday was now offering apologies with a bowed head. Without someone's intervention, such a sudden shift in attitude seemed impossible.And then there was last night. After waking from her sleep, she realized Liam slipped out secretly, which planted a seed of dread in her thoughts.Could it be that Liam's nocturnal escapade was to seek out Mr. Adams?Hayes's expression turned to stone when he heard her, momentarily caught off guard, but he quickly recovered, his smile returning as he hastily explained, "No, no one came to me! You're reading too much into it. I just had a change of heart. I realized Mr. Yafe Stone and his crew aren't exactly the best company. I figured I'd be better off throwing in my lot with you."Celena could read between the lines, but Hayes was holding back. However, she didn't press him, instead following him into the factory.Meanwhile, Cheryl made arrangements with a
Liam saw how his wife had to wake up early to take the bus every morning, and he felt sorry. He long planned to buy a car for Celena. It was just that too many things happened lately, so the plan kept getting postponed.When Liam carried Jovie into the big Mercedes-Benz showroom of the car dealership, the eight saleswomen were standing in a circle, chatting with each other. None of them noticed Liam.Liam did not either. He simply looked around with Jovie in his arms, and he took a fancy to a car. It would cost more than a hundred thousand dollars, which was not considered expensive.He walked around the car to take a look and was very happy with it. Just as he was about to open the door to give it a try, he suddenly heard a disdainful voice. "What are you doing? Who let you in? This is a very expensive car. How could you just try it as you wish? Can you afford to pay if you damage it?"Then, a young woman in a black uniform and heels walked over in an alluring manner. Her tone w
Liam looked at the saleswoman with a frosty gaze and asked icily, "What's your name?"The woman leaned against the car next to her, showcasing her curvy figure. She sneered and asked, "Since you want to know my name, I'll let you. I'm Linda Lawson. I've told you my name, so hurry and get out of here now. Don't dirty this place. The sight of poor losers like you just annoys me. You can't even afford to buy the car, yet you came to the window shop."Upon saying that, Linda straightened her body and returned to her seat, swaying her hips seductively as she walked off. She did not care at all that Liam had an incredibly frosty expression.After Liam brought Jovie out of the dealership, he made a call and gave some commands. Then, he looked down and gently comforted Jovie, "Don't be scared, Jovie. Let's go next door to have a look. Let's buy a pretty car for Mom, alright?"Jovie nodded her head. She hugged Liam tightly as she was frightened earlier.With Jovie in his arms, Liam walke
That was the reason that particular dealership was so successful. Regardless of the kind of cars their customers bought, they would give their customers a small ceremony and shower them with blessings.The commotion attracted the attention of the staff at the Mercedes-Benz dealership next door.The women, who were gossiping together earlier, craned their necks at the door and started discussing it."I wonder who's the lucky salesperson next door. A car is sold so early in the morning. Also, it looks like the customer paid in full.""Let me have a look. Look, guys! The customer is coming out!""He must be an heir of a wealthy family since he's able to buy the car on a whim. Gosh, why didn't he come to our dealership? It would have been great if I was the one who sold the car."At that moment, Linda casually came over, moving her hips as she walked. She followed everybody's gaze and saw the latest BMW 7 Series driving out of the dealership next door.Someone with a sharp eye saw L
At that moment, one of the saleswomen said softly, "Linda, you were the one who drove that man out earlier. Do you want to-"Her words made everyone turn to look at Linda. In an instant, Linda felt so embarrassed that she wanted to curl up into a ball and disappear.She looked at the brand-new BMW 7 Series, gritted her teeth, and cleared her throat. She straightened her uniform and quickly walked over to stop Liam, who was about to get into the car."Did you buy this car?"Liam wanted to pick Celena up with Jovie in the new car. After he was stopped by Linda, he frowned and looked at her while feeling upset. He asked in return, "Is that a problem with that?"Linda could not believe it at all. She immediately exclaimed, "That's impossible! I refuse to believe it! How could a loser in cheap clothes like you afford such an expensive car? Did you rent it instead?"Liam sneered and surveyed Linda. With a disdainful tone, he said, "Are you saying that this car is very expensive?"Lind
Liam glanced at his watch, smiled a little, and said, "No need. It's almost time.""It's almost time?" Amos was dazed and confused. He did not understand what Liam meant at all.Right as Amos was still trying to wrap his head around it, more than ten Mercedes-Benzes arrived at the dealership. They formed a line from the entrance to the end of the streets.Then, the doors opened, and out came dozens of men in black suits. They were all waiting respectfully for the person in the Lincoln that was at the forefront.Apart from Liam, everybody was stunned by the situation.The staff of the Mercedes-Benz dealership even fought with each other to rush forward. Respect and delight were written all over their faces.It seemed like a huge customer arrived.The manager of the Mercedes-Benz dealership rushed out in such a hurry that he knocked over a chair in his path.Suddenly, there were men in black suits standing in an orderly fashion in front of all the car dealerships along the entire
Eaden ran to Liam and stood in front of him. With a humble expression and respective tone, he said, "Please forgive me for being late, Mr. Cole. I'm at your service, sir."There was pin-drop silence in front of the dealership.All the staff and the managers from both the Mercedes-Benz and BMW dealerships had their eyes widened. They could not believe what was happening in front of their eyes. What did they just see?The formidable Mr. Wafer of Drunham City was submissive to a young man and said that he was at his service.That was unheard of! This young man must be someone extraordinary.Linda and the saleswomen who mocked Liam earlier were scared out of their wits. They were trembling and doing their best to hide among the crowd. They were trying not to draw attention to themselves.One of the saleswomen who called Liam a poor loser was so scared that she fainted.Putting aside everything else, Eaden alone was well-known in the entire city. Everyone knew they should never get
As Linda spoke, she secretly pulled her skirt up a little. Then, she crawled to Liam's feet in tears, and hugged his legs, rubbing her chest against him without making it obvious. She did all that while she kept begging for forgiveness."Mr. Cole, I know that I've made a mistake. Please forgive me, just this once."Before Liam did anything, the manager went up to Linda and kicked her away. He bellowed, "Bitch! How dare you offend Mr. Cole and his daughter? And you dare to shamelessly seduce Mr. Cole now. I'm going to kill you, you bitch!"The manager yelled and cursed fiercely, but he did not feel that his anger was vented. Therefore, he kicked Linda a couple of times on her lower abdomen. He kicked her so hard that Linda curled up on the ground, hugging her belly and wailing in pain. Her arrogance from before was completely gone. Her hair was messy, and blood was streaming from the corner of her mouth. She just looked awful.Liam raised his eyebrow and sneered. He was exuding a
