Chapter 657

Author: Voice From Heaven
"Enough with the theatrics, let's talk numbers. 30 million dollars, that's the price tag on your life. What do you say?"

The words hit Thoth like a bolt from the blue, his mind reeling with terror, his body freezing mid-bow, eyes bulging, mouth agape.

What!?

30 million dollars?

The figure nearly knocked Thoth out cold, his face a mask of despair as he looked up at Liam, his voice trembling, "Sir, sir! You can't be serious?"

However, one look into Liam's frosty eyes told Thoth all he needed to know—that was no joke.

However, where in the world would he find 30 million dollars?

Thoth was at the end of his rope, and with nothing left to lose, he blurted out, "Look, I just don't have 30 million dollars. You could kill me, and I still wouldn't be able to cough up that kind of cash."

Even if he liquidated every asset he owned, he would be lucky to scrape together 15 million dollars.

Liam's eyebrow quirked up as he leaned in, his knee supporting his weight. The dagger in his hand, ic

    Out of nowhere!A squad of bodyguards in sleek black suits burst through the entrance, swiftly taking control of the hall. The woman, barely awake and undeniably alluring, succumbed to unconsciousness once more, overwhelmed by the abrupt commotion.Thoth, confronted by a sea of menacing suits, lost his composure and yelled, "Who are you? What do you want? Listen, I'm no pushover, you'd better-"Before he could get the words out, the door swung open, and in walked a figure that made Thoth's blood run cold. It was Eaden. Thoth's knees buckled, and he crashed to the floor.Eaden strode over, towering above the quivering Thoth, and said with an icy voice, "Thoth, you've got some nerve, crossing Mr. Cole. Looks like you've got the heart of a lion!"Thoth was sprawled on the ground, shaking like a leaf. He did not dare cross Eaden, the kingpin of Drunham City's shadowy corners. With a voice quaking with fear, he pleaded, "Mr. Wafer, have mercy. I lost my head for a moment, that's why I

    Just then, a voice finally came through the phone—a deep, male voice that Wasyl found vaguely familiar but could not quite place."Wasyl? Looking for Thoth? Sorry to break it to you, but I've just tossed Thoth into the river for the fish to feast on. If you want to see him, you'll have to dive to the riverbed."Wasyl shot up from the bed, his face a mask of horror, and shouted, "Who in the world are you? Where's Thoth? Put him on the line!"On the other end, Eaden chuckled darkly, his voice icy, "Who am I? I'm Eaden! Wasyl, wasn't I clear enough? Thoth's fish food now, probably at the bottom of the river. So, you were looking for him?"Wasyl's body shook, his face drained of color as fear took hold. He quickly plastered on a groveling smile, "Heh? Uh, Mr. Wafer, my apologies, I didn't realize it was you. I misspoke and offended you. I'll make sure to bring a proper gift and apologize in person soon. You're a forgiving man, please don't hold this against me.""Look, Mr. Wafer, I'm

    Liam, a nobody? How on earth could he have the clout to get Eaden of Drunham City, the notorious Mr. Wafer, to work for him?Who was Eaden, anyway?He's the kingpin of Drunham's underground, not someone who would associate with a nobody like Liam!No way, not a chance!Cheryl scoffed, her voice dripping with sarcasm as she eyed Wasyl's earnest expression. "Honey, you're reading too much into this. How could he be involved? He's nothing but a leftover from the Cole family, a rejected son-in-law from the Stone family, just a clueless ex-soldier! There's no way he's connected, you're just imagining things."Wasyl, puffing on his cigarette, his brow furrowed, ignored Cheryl's mocking. Lost in thought, he insisted, "It can't be. I thought I was overthinking it too, but when you look at it, something's off."He rose from the bed and paced the room, his face set in a grim line. "Just think about it. Liam, the cast-off from the Cole family seven years back, a stray nobody, how could he p

    "Yes! That's what I've been thinking! I think there must be more to this than what meets the eye," Wasyl replied, nodding solemnly. His brows were furrowed in deep thought, as though contemplating something important.Cheryl could not help chuckling at how comical Wasyl looked, losing his sleep over something like this. She smiled and shook her head. "You're overthinking this, my love. How can Liam possibly have another identity? He's nothing more than a good-for-nothing who's leaching off my family for everything. If there was more to this, we would've found out by now. Come on, don't waste your time thinking about this. Why don't we do something else? Something I know you'd be interested in."With that, she inched behind Wasyl, then reached out and snaked her arm along Wasyl's taut, chest, her rosy lips hovering just inches next to his ear, blowing gently to tickle his skin. "Come on, my love. Stop thinking about Liam. I know what you'd much rather be doing."Cheryl's teasing succ

    Although it was still early, the morning market was already packed full of people, most white-collar workers who were there to buy their breakfast before heading off to work. Liam and Jovie arrived at a bakery famous for their bagels. There was already a line, and Liam joined the end of the queue, playing with Jovie while they awaited their turn. Jovie clung onto Liam's leg, watching in awe as the pastry chefs kneaded dough in the store window, with rows and rows of fresh, fluffy bagels laid out for display. She gulped, staring at the bagels, then exclaimed, "Dad! It smells so good! I'm going to have so many of these!"Before Liam could even reply, however, a scuffle rang out from behind them, which was followed closely behind by people's cries of outrage. "Hey, who do you think you are? Line up!""How uncivilized are you? Stop pushing!""Everyone here is in a rush, too, but that doesn't mean you can cut queues and be rude! This is unacceptable.""Youngsters nowadays are gett

    All the gangsters craned their necks to look at Liam, sneering. One of them even shouted, "Who the hell is that? How dare you speak to our boss like this?""Who the f*ck do you think you are? Who cares about your opinion?""Oh, you have a little kid with you as well, huh? What's this? Were you just trying to look good in front of your daughter? Save yourself and keep your nose out of trouble!""Come here, little girl. You're an adorable little thing. Come on over, let me take a good look at you. Hehe!" one of the men snickered, then reached out to tug Jovie out of Liam's arms, laughing lecherously. The next moment, a bloodcurdling scream echoed through the air, as Liam grabbed hold of his wrist, then with a sharp twist, snapped his wrist right in half! The man's arm hung loosely in front of him, twisted at a grotesque angle. Liam stared coldly at the man, sending chills down his spine as he snarled, "I cannot stand people who break the rules, especially not men like you who dare

    Watson and the man whose wrist Liam was broken crashed onto the ground together, and at the same time, Watson's knife sank right into the flesh of his subordinate's trunk, and blood spurted out of the wound. "Ahh!" the man let out a shriek of agony and stumbled to his feet, his entire body shaking like a leaf. He was clutching his broken wrist with one hand, and as he stood up, the hilt of the knife stuck out from his flesh, glinting menacingly and even shaking along with his body. Everyone watching held their breaths in fear, but when they saw that Watson was defeated, they broke out in cheers and applause. All of them knew Watson; he was the local thug and was terrorizing this area for as long as they could remember. Therefore, it was good to see him get a taste of his own medicine!Watson was so stunned that he could not even move for a few seconds. Finally, when he heard his subordinate screaming, he snapped out of his stupor and leaped to his feet. His expression was dark, lo

    Liam and Jovie just turned the corner when suddenly, a group of twenty or so men showed up, wielding daggers and bats as they trudged straight toward Liam. The next moment, a shout echoed through the streets.

The crowd queuing for their food dispersed within seconds, and all the people lurked in distant corners of the street, watching to see what would happen. The entire street transformed into a ghost town within seconds of these thugs' arrival. Some of the onlookers, who recognized these thugs, began to whisper, "Oh no! That poor man is going to get the beating of his life. That's Dylan Chase, you know. He's one of the most notorious gangsters in this area, and has more than thirty people working underneath him.""

    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

    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
