Chapter 23

Author: Voice From Heaven
At this exact moment, Liam arrived just in time to see Cheryl slapping Celena across the face and Celena slumping onto the ground in a crumpled heap.

He felt his blood boil and wanted nothing more than to snap Cheryl's arm right in half. The moment he saw that, he leaped out of the car before it even stopped and sprinted toward them.

No one was allowed to treat Celena like this!

Cheryl raised her arm above her head, poised to give another slap, when all of a sudden someone swatted her arm away so forcefully that she staggered backward. Finally, she lost her balance and plopped onto the ground, right in the middle of the puddle of wastewater!

"Ahhh—" she shrieked in disgust. Her hands were now covered in wastewater, and she was even more infuriated by the sight of Jacob standing to one side, his mouth agape in shock. "Are you an idiot? How can you stand there like that while someone else picks on your girlfriend?"

Jacob finally snapped out of his stupor. He stared at Cheryl, w

    Cheryl ordered someone to bring over a bucketful of the leftover wastewater that the servants used to mop the floors so that she could pour it onto Celena to spite her. She could not believe that she ended up being covered in the same water too, and at the thought of this, she stomped back into the mansion, screaming. As angry as she was, Cheryl could not help but find the man who showed up to help Celena strangely familiar. It was as though she had seen him before, but she could not put a finger on it. Meanwhile, Liam brought Celena back to Jade Manor. Everyone was stunned to see Celena return with another wound this time. They bussed her back to her room where Dr. Jensen opened the dressing on her bullet wound. The stitches tore, and wastewater seeped into her wound. The edges of the wound were gaping and were beginning to become inflamed. Dr. Jensen changed the dressing and put Celena on an IV drip. Liam sat down next to Celena's bed and watched her curl up like a shrimp, fast

    With Dr. Jensen's help and the aid of the best medicine around, Trent's wounds healed beautifully, and every day, just on the verge of them healing, Liam would send someone to peel them wide open again with a blunt dagger! Wails of agony echoed through the mansion day after day. The excruciating pain made Trent want to curl up and die, but he was now paralyzed in all four limbs and had no way of moving at all. He could power through the pain initially, but as the days went by, he finally could not stand it anymore and pleaded for mercy. "I'm sorry… I know what I've done… I will never do it again… Please let me go… I'll give you money in exchange for letting me go… Please…" However, everyone ignored him. Dr. Jensen continued to tend to him every day, and his wounds continued to be peeled open again and again. Calum even saw to the task himself sometimes and subconsciously stuck the dagger in even deeper at the thought of Jovie not being able to walk again someday. "Ahhhh—" Trent

    Even if the wound were to leave a scar on her forehead, Liam still thought Celena was the most beautiful woman in the world! "Her wound has gotten infected by the wastewater, and if any other doctor tended to her, they would not have been able to stop the wound from scarring, but thankfully I'm the one treating her, so that won't happen! Don't worry, Sir!" Dr. Jensen declared confidently. With that, Liam spent the entire afternoon sitting by Celena's side. Eventually, as the sun began to set, she let out a groan and slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was the beautiful chandelier dangling from the ceiling above her. When she felt the warmth of Liam's skin against hers, she turned and came face-to-face with him, staring straight at her. His eyes were etched with sorrow, guilt, and love. Finally, he let out a sigh and stroked his cheek gently with Celena's hand. "Do you hate me, Celena? I'm the reason you fell from your throne as heiress of the

    At this exact moment, the Igragon already gathered and were collectively on their way to Drunham City. Louie, too, finished settling his affairs in Athenapolis and was making his way there. The Igragon were such a large group of warriors that naturally, their presence caught the attention of the Federal Aviation Department, who quickly relayed the message to the various branches of the Igragon's journey. Everyone in the Federal Aviation Department was wondering whether something terrible happened in Drunham City that required the Igragon's intervention. They sent their people out to find out if anything was wrong in Drunham City, but sadly their searches were futile. No one knew what the Igragon were there for; all that was known was their destination. Liam returned to the living room of Jade Manor, where Albert waited. He leaped to his feet and reported to Liam, "Sir, the Pendragon and Igragon Warriors are all ready for battle. The first elite Igragon team arrived in Drunham Cit

    "Very well then! I've never met someone who dares to challenge me like this in all these years of ruling over Drunham City! I was capable of destroying the entire Cole family seven years ago, I can do it again!" Morgan's face was steely and remorseless. "Morgan, he's still got Trent captive. Should we send someone to rescue Trent first?" Jonas asked. Morgan considered this for a moment, then finally said, "Let's not give ourselves away just yet. He must've been prepared for this, otherwise, he wouldn't have taken Trent away just like that. Let's try to call Trent and see what's going on there!" They did as he asked. Trent's phone rang, and Calum handed the phone to Liam. "It must be the Walkers' calling." Liam picked up. Morgan's husky voice rang out from the other end of the line, "If you send Trent back to us, do the same to yourself as what you've done to Trent, and beg for our mercy, I might just consider forgiving you." Liam sneered. The Walkers were as arrogant as he re

    Morgan hesitated for a moment, then turned to Jonas and said, "Jonas, gather the men, including the rest of the brothers—the more the merrier! Also, get in touch with those two in the gangs and tell them I need their help! They'll be more than willing to lend a helping hand!" Jonas replied, "Morgan, I've already done that. I've already gathered about two thousand people, and if we add on the two brothers, we might be able to get an extra thousand or so men!" Morgan nodded in approval. All of a sudden, he recalled that the Walkers still had about a dozen or so men amid training to be martial artists and called out after Jonas, "Jonas, summon the martial artists back to Drunham City. They need to be here tomorrow!" Jonas nodded and left to carry out his tasks! "Hans, get on top of our financial assets and prepare some liquid assets for the upcoming battle. Also, notify the Stones of what we're going to do and request as much help as we can from them. Get in touch with the other f

    The Walkers' sudden activity caught the attention of virtually everyone in Drunham City. A lot of the smaller families were beginning to feel anxious, trying to figure out if they were the ones who crossed the Walkers. The entire city seemed to be engulfed in a cloak of impending doom. Meanwhile, a scrawny old man was perched on the couch of Howard's office, staring at him with a knowing look. "Mr. Mosier, the Walkers are hosting an event in a few days that will involve three thousand or so people. This event will be held around Walker Mansion, and I hope that the police will stay out of this. I won't be able to guarantee what will happen if the police intervene without reason!" The Walkers were just as arrogant even toward the chief of police himself! Howard scowled, infuriated at having been threatened so outright. He smacked the table and snapped, "This is the police, not your backward, Keith! Are you trying to threaten me? Are you disregarding the entire law and judicial syst

    No matter what the situation was at the military, that was the military's business. This was Drunham City. The person with the highest power here was still Malcolm.Since they were at Drunham City, they had to do as Malcolm said. Therefore, after Keith left, Howard rushed to Malcolm's home.Howard sat on the couch across from Malcolm. He was furious with the Walker family as he said, "Mr. Lynch, Keith from the Walkers came to look for me earlier. He said they would be holding a get-together soon. He asked me not to appear on their turf and to stay out of their business. Tell me, what should we do?"Malcolm lit a cigarette and took a deep puff of it. He looked out the window with his eyes squinted into a serious gaze.He said, "The Walkers are very arrogant, but they are very powerful in Drunham City. We can't do anything to them as we please. But this time, they've offended someone they shouldn't have. We have orders from above asking us not to make a move. So, let's just watch qui

    However, Andy was a smooth talker, so the eldest member of the Drayton family liked him. Because of that, the head of the family tolerated him. That was why Andy, who was just a member of the branch family, dared to be so cocky.Andy saw Howard standing at the side from the corner of his eye as he spoke. He thought of what Howard said earlier, and that made his blood boil.He pointed at Howard and bellowed, "Uncle Derrick, this Howard is trash as well. You have no idea. I told him I was a member of the Drayton family, yet he did not take our family seriously at all."Not only did he have his men capture me, but he said cockily that he wanted to lock me up forever, and nobody could stop him."Weren't you very cocky before this, Mr. Mosier? Go on. Continue acting cocky in front of my uncle now. Detain me and lock me up forever."Andy took a couple of steps closer to Howard as he said that. He extended his hands arrogantly and said, "Come on. I have my hands stretched out for you. Hu

    Soon, Andy and the thugs from the nightclub yesterday were released.Andy saw Derrick standing at the entrance of the police headquarters at a glance. He got so excited that he shouted, "Uncle Derrick! Uncle Derrick!"Fletcher's subordinates were incredibly excited to see Derrick as well. All of them shouted, "Mr. Derrick Drayton!"One of the subordinates was in Drunham City because Derrick arranged for him to be there. After he was brought to Derrick's side, he smiled apologetically and said, "Thank you for saving me, sir. Don't worry. Fletcher's faction and properties are all here. I'll be able to rebuild the faction here very soon."In other words, even if Fletcher was out of the picture, he would be able to thrive in Drunham City and replace Fletcher.However, Derrick shot an icy glare at him and sneered. "Hmph! How shameless of you to say that? There are so many of you, yet you can't deal with a small loser who only married into the Stone family."If it wasn't because this w

    Howard did not expect that the Drayton family would have a connection with the Carter family. They could even produce a token from the Carter family."Mr. Derrick Drayton, I didn't expect that your family and the Carters go way back. You even got the Carter family's token out," said Howard.Derrick sneered and said, "Enough with the nonsense. Howard, my family did the Carter family a favor back then, that's why the general of the Carter family gave this token to us. He promised us that we could take out this token if we were ever in a bind in the future, and they would help us!"I'm taking out this token today to tell you that I'm going to bail Andy out of here. I'd like to see who in Drunham City has the guts to stop me!"Howard was stunned, and then he fell silent.He did not think that Derrick would take out a token from the Carter family.The Carter family was the top family in Mirstone. Nobody in Mirstone would dare to go against the Carter family. Derrick became even more

    Meanwhile, Derrick and his men were already at the entrance of the police headquarters.Derrick's eyes were burning with rage as he looked at the door that was shut tightly. A sneer appeared on his lips as he said, "Hmph. Looks like they already know I'm coming, so they are deliberately trying to assert dominance."Then, he asked his driver next to him, "Where are our men? Have they all arrived?"The driver nodded and said, "They're here, Mr. Derrick. They are all waiting at the side. We'll tear down the main door to the police headquarters once you give the command."Derrick nodded with satisfaction. Then, he shouted at the police headquarters, "Howard! You're just the chief of the police headquarters! How dare you lock me outside?""I'd like to see how powerful you are today, Howard! Come on, guys. Take it down!"At his command, a group of burly men rushed out of the black van next to him. They were all holding thick bats, and they rushed up to the door ferociously.Right at t

    At first, Yafe and the rest of the Stone family were stunned after they heard what Liam said. Then, they all burst out laughing.Yafe looked at Liam with a mocking gaze and said, "Are you kidding me, Liam? You're going to get the Draytons to come and apologize in person? Come on, that's the Drayton family we're talking about! Do you think they are just some nobody?"Right now, I don't want to waste my breath anymore. As long as you're able to stop the Drayton family from targeting us, I'm more than grateful. Don't you forget that you're the one who wanted to leave the Stone family? So, stop dragging us into your mess."Liam shot the crowd with an icy glare and brought Celena out of the Stone Mansion.Celena was still in a slight daze after they got into the car. Liam put on her safety belt for her and asked, "What's the matter, dear? Are you still worried about the Draytons?"Celena nodded and replied, "Yes. After all, all these were caused by the conflict between Andy and us. Jus

Then, he kicked Yonatan away, making him land next to the thugs.Yonatan passed out because of that kick.Once the thugs saw their leader was out cold, they took a couple of steps back in fear.However, Liam did not care about them at all.

    Yonatan was infuriated and bellowed, "So this is how you're going to play! Alright! I'm not going to stop until I kill you today!"Yonatan was radiating an intense desire to battle. That was the air exuded by a fighter of Fourth Order War King caliber.The Stone family was so frightened by the air he exuded that their faces turned pale. All of them took more than ten steps back in fear, afraid they would be injured by mistake.Yonatan clenched his fist and charged at Liam like a ferocious beast. His fist was packing so much power that it created a sonic boom, cutting through the air and going for Liam's face.The punch was so powerful that it could kill a bull right away.The Stone family thought Liam was going to die. Nobody would be able to survive a punch like that.Yonatan thought the same. He was very confident in his ability. He looked into Liam and knew he used to be a soldier, as well as a good fighter.

    The moment Liam stepped into view, the Stone family members lit up as if they had spotted their guardian angel. They pointed at him, their voices rising in a chorus of relief and accusation. "Mr. Yonatan, look over here! It's Liam! I said they weren't with us!""Exactly! Mr. Yonatan, see for yourself, Liam's not part of our family!""Mr. Yonatan, now that Liam's here, if you're looking to pin the blame on someone, he's your man!""Liam, you actually showed up. If you hadn't crossed the Drayton family, would we, the Stones, have ever been dragged into this mess?""Liam, Celena, you two are nothing but trouble. You've left the family, so why keep stirring the pot for us?"...The air crackled with the Stone family's collective outrage, their faces twisted in anger as if they were ready to rip Liam and Celena to shreds.Celena and Liam's arrival was pure happenstance. They were just in the neighborhood to check in on an old friend when they overheard Yonatan's boastful taunts.Lia

    Yonatan did not even bother to look at him. He checked his watch with a chilling laugh and said, "You've got ten minutes for Liam to show up. Don't say I didn't warn you."The words sent a wave of shock through Yafe and the rest of the Stone family, who stared at Yonatan, panic-stricken.Yafe was a mess, desperate to explain, but the sight of Yonatan's henchmen, eager and ready for a fight, stopped him dead in his tracks."Mr. Yonatan, I swear it's the truth. Liam has nothing to do with the Stone family anymore. You've made a mistake!"Yafe's face was flushed with urgency as he tried to convince the unmoved man."It's true, Mr. Yonatan! Liam and Celena were kicked out of the Stone family ages ago.""That's right! He's got nothing to do with us anymore. If you're after Liam, go to the villa at Emerald Lake. He's there, not here with us.""Mr. Yonatan, if you head over to Drunham City and ask anyone, they'll tell you the same thing: Liam and Celena have no ties to us Stones anymor
