Clayton went limp. His legs turned to jelly and he slumped onto the ground. He could barely form his words. "I-Impossible! How could this have happened? Mr. Lockhart!"

After Herbert and Jaxton saw the news, their faces ashened in despair. They were just smug a moment ago.

They kneeled on the ground and looked at Clayton, whose face was as equally ashened as theirs. They felt their world spinning.

"Mr. Lindberg! Mr. Lockhart h-has b-been fired. W-What should we do? Mr. Lockhart is done for. We—" Herbert stuttered. He looked terrified.

Clayton was equally horrified. He looked at Liam with widened eyes filled with disbelief. He pointed at him with trembling fingers and asked, "W-Was it you? D-Did you do it? This was you, right? Impossible! Impossible! You're just a nobody who's remaining from the Cole family. How could you get Mr. Lockhart fired?"

Liam looked at Clayton going mad. He snickered. "Clayton, you have people backing you up, don't you? You also have the Norton family. Why

    Clayton still refused to believe that Rhett being dismissed was not Liam's doing. He thought for a bit and continued, "Mr. Norton, could it be that, Mr. Lockhart offended the higher-ups, so he just happened to be let go? And Liam probably got hold of this news earlier on, so he was putting on an act for us today?"Riley was deep in thought. He felt that what Clayton said made sense. Liam was nothing more than a leftover from his family that was destroyed. He did not have such abilities. Rhett must have offended higher ups which resulted in his dismissal.Having a clearer expectation, he finally said, "Alright, be quiet! Pass the phone to Liam. I want to speak to him!" After all, he was the head of the Norton family of Hamish City. On top of that, he was the most famous student of Dr. Jensen, Biskeland's legendary doctor. He had high status. Even if Liam was a powerful person, he would surely treat him with respect.Clayton instantly nodded. Having more confidence because of what R

    "If there's someone who has taken ill, why should I look for you? Can't I just look directly for Dr. Jensen?" Liam continued speaking in a calm voice.His nonchalant tone made Riley's veins pop. He shouted into the phone, "You better not cross the line! Do you think Dr. Jensen is someone you can just meet as you like? Getting him to treat some illness? "Do you know who the patients he sees every day are? They're all prominent figures within the country. You're from a small city, and you're the only one left after your family has been destroyed. What right do you have to say that you can look for my mentor?" Riley was already talking through gritted teeth and with all his might.He wanted to properly negotiate with Liam, but he did not relent. He was so arrogant, and he completely did not take Riley seriously at all. "Hey man, if you're not going to do this the easy way, we'll have to do it the hard way! If you're not going to agree while I'm negotiating with you nicely, then do

    Jaxton immediately came forward and lashed out at Liam, "Liam, who do you think you are? Dr. Jensen's a legendary doctor in Biskeland! He's world-famous! He's someone respected by people all around! You think you can just call him up as you like? Stop bluffing!"He was kneeling on the floor in fear for so long, and he naturally jumped at it when a chance to taunt Liam finally came. He thought that his status would be worlds apart from Liam's since seven years passed. He thought he would have the right to properly humiliate him, all to avenge himself for what he had to endure when he was with Liam back then. However, Liam's previous tactics did make Jaxton scared and suspicious. Could it be that Liam was someone important? But the fact that Liam would bluff that he could contact the legendary Dr. Jensen and get him to obey his words completely cleared Jaxton's suspicions. Eaden was also in shock! He knew that Liam had a mysterious identity, but to say that he knew the legendary Dr.

  • My Invincible Husband Has Returned   Chapter 325

    Dr. Jensen snorted and said in an extremely displeased tone, "Riley, do you know that you've screwed up?""What? Sir, I don't know what you mean. I've always followed your teachings and I haven't done anything wrong!" Riley looked puzzled. He completely did not relate this phone call to Liam because it never crossed his mind that Liam would know his mentor! Noticing that Riley was oblivious to his mistakes, Dr. Jensen scolded angrily, "How dare you! Riley, you've disrespected someone that you can't afford to offend. I don't even dare to disrespect and take him lightly. That man saved me in the past! I owe my life to him! And you think you're so clever. How dare you get in his way?"A few years back, Dr. Jensen was the main person in charge at the hospital in the military region. An accident happened, and if it were not for Liam, he would have lost his life there and then! What Dr. Jensen said struck down Riley like lightning, and he was completely stunned. A person that even

    Meanwhile, at the hospital, Clayton glared at Liam and spat, "Listen, you twat! Riley Norton is the apprentice of the legendary Dr. Jensen. Riley himself is one of the most experienced and renowned doctors in his hometown, Hamish City! How naive of you to think you'd be able to get in touch with one of the best doctors this country has ever seen just because you want to?"Clayton raised his brows contemptuously and sneered. When Liam claimed that he had single-handedly caused Rhett Lockhart to be fired, he had believed him. Now that he realized what a fraud Liam was, he could not help but wonder if Liam had been lying all this while. The thought grew in Clayton's mind like weeds until eventually, it overcame every ounce of his initial rationality and equipped him with a newfound sense of arrogance. Meanwhile, Herbert and Jaxton continued insulting Liam just to butter Clayton up. When Herbert heard what Clayton said, he immediately agreed and added, "You're so right, Mr. Lindberg

    To his surprise, the color drained from Riley's face the moment he heard this. His eyes lit ablaze with rage as he screamed, "How dare you, Clayton? Get on your knees right this instant?"Clayton fell to his knees without hesitation the moment he heard this. Riley was not someone he could afford to cross, and he would obey Riley's every whim and fancy without question!However, he lifted his head to stare at Riley through the phone with a puzzled look. "Why, Mr. Norton? What did I do wrong? Why do I need to get on my knees to beg for mercy?"Riley scoffed but did not even bother to answer Clayton's question. Instead, he snapped, "Hand the phone over to Mr. Cole right this instant!"As confused as Clayton was, he still did as Riley asked and handed Liam the phone.Liam took the phone from him and stared calmly at the man on the screen. "We finally met, Mr. Norton."Riley immediately fell to his knees the moment he saw Liam and said, "This is all my fault, Mr. Cole! I was unaware o

    Jaxton's entire face was as pale as a ghost as he muttered, "Liam… no, I mean, Mr. Cole, I'm sorry for ever underestimating and insulting you. I was out of my mind and acted rashly! Please forgive me for my callousness. My sister is married to the Nortons, so please show me and my father some mercy! Please, Mr. Cole… Please don't lock me up or torture me! I used to be one of your subordinates, Mr. Cole; please show me some mercy!" Jaxton was bowing his head against the ground so many times that his forehead was bleeding. He was no longer the contemptuous, cocky man that had looked down on Liam just a mere two minutes ago. Liam stared coldly at them and replied, "Fine, I will show you mercy, but only under one condition. All of the Shaws' assets have to be transferred over to Eaden. From today onward, I don't want to see either of you in this town! You are hereby banished from Drunham City, and if you ever show up before me again, I will not hesitate to kill you!"Both Jaxton and H

    Wasyl immediately let go of Cheryl's hand and sprinted toward Malcolm like a slobbering dog that had caught sight of a bone. When he passed by Liam, however, he even turned and spat, "Bastard!"Then, he circled past Liam and approached Malcolm with a grin as he extended his hand. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Lynch. I never thought I'd have the pleasure of seeing you here today. I'm the heir of Abbott Group, Wasyl Abbott. My father is Paget Abbott. I'm sure you must remember him. We've both met you before at various luncheons in the past!"To his surprise, Malcolm did not shake his hand and instead nodded without a single word. How could he possibly remember every single entrepreneur or businessman he had ever had a meal with?Besides, he had just witnessed Wasyl insulting Liam right in front of him, so there was no way he would give this rude young man the time of day!The former mayor of Drunham City, Rhett Lockhart, was sacked because of his disrespect toward Liam, and just a few minut

    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

  • My Invincible Husband Has Returned   Chapter 2286

    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
