Skylar suddenly rushed over, pointing at Liam in tears and shouting at the top of her lungs, "Adrian! How could you do that? He got Kayson severely beaten up to the point that he was hospitalized! He even slapped me earlier! Hurry up and catch him! I want his limbs crippled! I want him to apologize to me on his knees!"In the next second, Adrian gave Skylar a tight slap. He was furious as he berated her, "Shut your damn mouth! Are you crazy? Do you know who he is? How dare you be so rude and want the Guardian Deity of Biskland to apologize to you on your knees? Skylar, do you have a death wish?"Skylar was frozen in place, cupping her face that was slapped twice. Her eyes were wide as she looked at Adrian in utter disbelief."A-Adrian, what the hell are you doing? I think you're the crazy one. I'm your sister. He slapped me, yet you slap me because of him? How could you side with an outsider instead?" Skylar was infuriated. She was slapped twice in a row. Once by Liam, whom she lo
Adrian's words shattered the little bit of hope Jordan was holding onto.Jordan's legs gave way, making him drop to his knees. His whole body was trembling as he crawled to Liam and begged for forgiveness, "K-King Pendragon, I was wrong. I didn't know it was you, and I offended you. "I'm begging you, please. You're a great man. Please forgive a lowly person like me. Please spare me, just this once. Please have mercy on me. Forgive me."It was only then Skylar realized what was going on. She was dazed as she stood in place. She figured out how severe the situation was after she saw Jordan begging for forgiveness on his knees. Her legs turned to jelly, and she dropped to her knees to beg Liam for mercy as well."Liam, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I didn't know you were the commander-in-chief of the Pendragon Warriors. If I knew that, I never would've dared to offend you. Liam—no, King Pendragon, I'm sorry. Please forgive me. I'm just an ignorant woman. I'm shallow. Please spare me," Skyl
"Dad, Mom, Uncle Adrian, you're finally back. You must take revenge for me. You must bring Liam back and make him apologize to me on his knees. If not, I'm not going to live anymore."All Jordan felt was the burning pain on his cheek. He was extremely nervous. He could tell at a glance that Kayson was not severely injured at all. He only pretended that his arms and legs were broken.In a fit of anger, Jordan pointed at Kayson and cursed, "Shut your damn mouth! Go to hell!"Kayson was so stunned to hear those words that he forgot to continue pretending to moan in pain. He simply just stared at Jordan and Skylar in a daze.With grievances written all over his face, Kayson whined in tears, "Mom, look what Dad did! How could he do this to me? How could he tell me to go to hell? Ah! I don't want to live anymore! I'm done living!"Skylar felt sorry for Kayson, but she did not dare to ask Jordan to fulfill his wish like she used to do. She did not dare to say much. She just kept giving K
"I'm sorry! I'm very sorry, sir! He-he's gone crazy. Please don't mind him. You're a big-hearted man, so please don't hold it against him.""That's right, sir. He's lost his mind and is talking nonsense. Please have mercy and forgive him!"Jordan and Skylar kept begging Liam for mercy on their knees.Kayson could not wrap his head around it as he saw that. With a frown and confusion, he asked, "Mom, Dad, what are you doing? Why are you begging a loser like Liam on your knees? Why did you call him sir? What are you talking about?"Upon hearing that, Jordan suddenly got up and rushed toward Kayson. He grabbed Kayson and made him kneel before he bellowed, "How dare you, you insolent brat! Hurry up and apologize to the commander on your knees."How dare you address him by his name? He's the commander-in-chief of the Pendragon Warriors, King Pendragon. Quickly beg him for forgiveness on your knees or you're dead meat!"Those words were mind-blowing to Kayson. He was stunned when he he
Liam was not a ruthless person. Some people just need to be taught a lesson, and it would be fine as long as they could remember what they learned. There was no need to have them destroyed.Jordan, Kayson, and Skylar waited a few minutes after Liam left before they finally let out a deep sigh of relief.Kayson felt all his strength was drained. He slumped on the floor, shaking all over.Jordan panted heavily as if he dodged a bullet by the skin of his teeth. It took him a while before he got up, walked up to Kayson, and started raining punches on him.While beating Kayson, Jordan bellowed, "You useless brat! Do you know how big of a trouble you've caused? I didn't care how you usually mess around, and I let you be. But how big of a mess you've gotten us into? Our family was almost destroyed because of you. We could've vanished from Drunham City! I'm going to beat you to a pulp! How dare you create trouble and even pretend to be injured!"Kayson lay on the floor, hugging his head w
Filled with excitement, Celena stepped out of the elevator and saw Liam standing in the middle of the lobby, unharmed. Tears instantly streamed down her face. She quickly ran toward Liam and hugged him, sobbing in his arms."You're finally back! I've been worried sick about you. How are you? Did they give you a hard time?" Celena sobbed.Liam was stunned by Celena's hug. It seemed that he was incredibly important to Celena. She was so worried about him.Thinking of that, a faint smile appeared on Liam's face. He felt touched. His gaze was so tender as he looked at Celena.He hugged Celena gently and comforted her in a tender voice, "Alright. Don't worry anymore. I'm back, am I not? I'm fine. They didn't give me a hard time."It was only then Celena released Liam from her grip. Liam looked right at her with an affectionate gaze and gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes."Alright, now. Don't cry anymore. You're not going to look pretty anymore if you keep crying," he t
Reginald did not believe Liam at all. He signaled Yafe with his eyes, asking him to call to verify Liam's words.At that moment, Cheryl—who was standing closest to the door—suddenly shouted, "Grandpa, bad news! Quick! Look! It seems that Mr. Wheeler and Kayson are here! They have a dozen bodyguards following behind them too! They must be here to punish someone! Liam, you can't have beaten Mr. Wheeler up before running off, right?"Everyone turned to look at the entrance and saw Jordan walking in with Kayson, who had a swollen face and was limping. There were a dozen bodyguards following behind them, and each of them was carrying gifts.Reginald and the others were terrified when they saw them. They thought Liam truly created a big mess this time.Reginald did not even have time to reprimand Liam. He was nervous as he went up to greet Jordan with a smile.As soon as Jordan entered, Reginald apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Wheeler. Don't worry. We won't cover up for Liam at all. We'll g
Reginald finally figured out what was happening at that moment, so he politely said, "You're too kind, Mr. Wheeler. It's just roughhousing between the kids. There's no need for this. Hurry up and let your son get up. Besides, Liam was in the wrong too."However, Jordan ignored him, keeping his eyes fixed on Liam in terror.That was until Liam said calmly, "Get up."Only then did Kayson get up like he received an amnesty. He did not dare to say much. He just looked terrified as he hid himself behind Jordan.Jordan kept apologizing and thanking Liam before leaving the Stone family's company with Kayson.Once Jordan and the others left, the lobby was abuzz with intense discussion."Was my fucking eyes playing tricks on me? Did Jordan just bring Kayson here to apologize?""I'm confused. I know Kayson. He's usually insufferably arrogant. It's hard enough for him to admit his mistake, much less apologize on his knees.""This is a mysterious world. I'm so confused.""What I'm curious
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
Liam wanted to ask what the family heirloom was, but he had no choice but to let it be after he heard what Yonatan said.However, Liam heard Yonatan's voice again, saying, "I've never seen that thing, but I heard from the Drayton family members that it was from a big shot in the military."The military?Liam's eyebrows furrowed once he heard it had something to do with the military. 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. He looked at Yafe and the others instead.Once the Stone family members saw that they were out of the woods, they became cocky again.Yafe and Sherah, in particular, were so cocky that they ran up to Liam and condemned him, "Look what you've done! You're bad luck! What else can you do other than cause us trouble? Do you know who that is? He is from the Drayton fam
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. However, so what?No matter how skilled Liam was in combat, could he
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
