The middle-aged man playing with Jovie turned around to look at Liam. A young man handed him a towel respectfully, and he wiped his hands casually. Finally, his calm gaze landed on Liam."So, you're Liam?" the middle-aged man asked, though he sounded certain.Liam frowned, exuding a frosty air slowly. He had a frosty gleam in his eyes as he replied, "That's right. I'm Liam. Who are you?"The man in the black boxing uniform handed the towel to his student. A faint smile appeared on his face as he said, "Excellent! Let me introduce myself. My name is West, Leon West. You may know me as Mr. West from the state."Liam frowned as a thought formed in his head. Sunniva was telling the truth. The Norris family sent Mr. West to look for him.Was Mr. West from the state?How interesting. Liam did not expect the Norris family to send someone over, much less act so quickly.Right at that moment, Jovie—who played at the side—saw that Liam returned. With a lollipop in her hand, she rushed to
Could it be that Liam committed a terrible crime?Celena became nervous. She was shaking as she asked, "Hello, Mr. Mosier. Why are you here at my home? Do you need our help? Or did my husband do something wrong?"It was not Celena's fault to think that way. The group of men who suddenly barged into the cottage earlier looked like they were not someone anybody would want to mess with. Celena was so frightened by them.Finally, Liam returned after Celena waited for a long time. However, as soon as she stepped out of her home with Jovie in her arms, she saw a police officer standing outside the door, and he was the police chief of Drunham City.It would only be natural for her to suspect that Liam committed a crime, which was why a police officer was at their door.Seeing that Celena misunderstood, Howard cursed in his mind and explained, "Ms. Stone, no, Mrs. Cole, you're mistaken. I'm not here to look for Mr. Cole. I'm here because I escorted him home. We needed Mr. Cole to cooperat
Leon put down the cup and nodded with a wicked grin. "That's right. It seems like you've understood it perfectly. So, what's your choice? Do you choose to save yourself from the pain and end your own life? Or do you want to take the risk and fight with me?"Before Liam could answer, Leon continued, "But I don't mind telling you this—no matter what path you choose today, all that's waiting for you at the end of the road is death. "After all, the youngest of the three brothers, Hoyt, has given me a lot of money before I came. I have to take care of the problem since I've accepted his money. That's why you'll have to die today."Liam was still standing in place calmly. There was no sign of fear on his face at all. He raised his eyebrow and asked in return, "Oh, is that so? It looks like you've made up your mind about my capabilities, and you're certain that I won't be able to survive this fight with you. Isn't that right?"Leon had a frosty glint in his eyes as he surveyed Liam with
Leon was befuddled right as he fell from the chair, and he kneeled on the floor in a daze.What the hell was going on? No matter what, Leon had the ability of a one-star Military King, yet he was so frightened by the young man in front of him that he dropped to his knees.The superiority that Leon felt all this while made him feel embarrassed and furious at that moment, and he struggled to get back up on his feet.However, his legs had no strength at all. That made him feel more panicked by the second. Beads of cold sweat kept dripping down his forehead as well."Tell me! Who the hell are you? You have such a terrifying ability, so why would you be willing to marry into a humble family like the Stones? Who the hell are you?" Leon's face was filled with terror. His eyes that were widened were filled with shock and fear.Liam walked up to Leon, stopping when he was just three steps away from him. He looked down at Leon, who was kneeling on the floor in fear, and said in a frosty ton
Liam shook his head with a smile and said, "Nothing much. There are so many of them. How could I be their match? They were probably frightened because I mentioned General Malcom Lynch from Drunham City."However, Celena was not so easily fooled anymore after all that she had been through. She stared at Liam with suspicion and asked, "Really? Liam, I keep feeling like you're hiding a lot of things from me."Liam still had a calm smile on his face as he held Celena's hand and replied, "I'm not hiding anything from you. That's really what happened. I didn't lie to you."Celena's eyebrows furrowed even tighter, but she did not know what to say when she saw Liam's smile. She just hummed as an acknowledgment and walked into the cottage.Liam glanced at Howard while carrying Jovie, giving him a slight nod before he walked into the cottage as well. Howard, on the other hand, got into his car and left.Meanwhile, Yousef and Rebecca checked into the Luxoria Hotel, the place where Yankel com
Others only knew that Yousef was close to the state police chief, Clarke. However, nobody knew that the Bristow Group and Clarke had some dealings in secret. Being the state police chief, Clarke was able to take care of a lot of trouble for them.Such business would never be clean. They would not stand a chance once the Discipline Inspection looked into them. That was why Yousef would be terrified after he heard what the man said over the phone earlier.If they were truly investigated, and the Bristow Group was implicated, it would create a huge commotion in the group.After the man on the other end of the phone heard Yousef asking anxiously, he replied respectfully, "I've got it, sir. It's Cidro Mosier, Deputy Commissioner of the Discipline Inspection Commission, who led the team himself and arrested Chief Clarke."There is only news about Chief Clarke being investigated. There still isn't any specific news about the reason Chief Clarke was taken away."There's quite a big commot
Yousef was silent for a few seconds and made up his mind. He had a frosty glint in his eyes as he said, "We'll treat Liam and his wife, the young lady from the Stone family, to dinner tonight.""What did you say?" Rebecca was furious as soon as she heard what Yousef said. She was angry and reluctant as she shouted, "Darling, are you crazy? Liam is the culprit who got our son locked up behind bars, yet you want to treat him to dinner? What the hell are you thinking? I don't care. I can't treat the culprit who harmed my son to dinner."Rebecca was afraid Yousef would insist, so she quickly stood up from the couch, rushing up to Yousef. She grabbed his arm and bellowed, "Darling, Liam is the one who framed our son!""Enough!" Yousef was already feeling very irritated because nothing was going his way, yet Rebecca was still harassing him. He was sullen as he shouted, which frightened Rebecca so much that she shuddered.Yousef turned to look at Rebecca and saw her looking reluctant. He
Rebecca's son was the heir of the Bristow Group. He would be inheriting the family's business in the future. He absolutely could not go to jail.Otherwise, her son's reputation will be tainted in the future. He would be laughed at for the rest of his life.Rebecca absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen.Since this was caused by Liam and his wife, then they should resolve the matter at its roots. If Liam and his wife refuse to cooperate, they would have no choice but to get rid of them.Thinking of that filled Rebecca's eyes with a vicious desire to kill.…Meanwhile, Liam was at home, keeping Jovie and Celena company.Both Jovie and Celena were quite frightened after Leon and the others came. It took Liam a while to cheer Jovie up and make her forget about it. At that moment, Jovie was drawing quietly on the couch with Celena.Suddenly, Liam's phone rang. It was from an unfamiliar number. Liam then grabbed his phone and went to the yard.As soon as he answered the c
