However, she did not realize how loud she actually was, so both Liam and Jovie overheard it. Liam's expression darkened at this, but he tried his best to stifle his anger. This was Jovie's first day of school, and the last thing he wanted was to offend her teacher. Sophie felt the fury wavering off Liam's body and knew that she had struck a nerve. She forced out a smile and said, "Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Cole. Unfortunately, Mr. Reynolds has something important to tend to, so he won't be able to assist you in your enrollment procedure. However, he has left the task to me instead, so I'll be helping you today. My name is Sophie Devens, but you can call me Ms. Devens."With that, she gestured for Liam to follow, then turned around and headed toward the office. "Come with me, Mr. Cole, and we'll get started with the enrollment process."Liam nodded and followed her. The moment they entered the room, Liam realized that the entire office had been decorated with streamers and banne

Of course, there were always exceptions to this. Some of the children hailed from ordinary families, but managed to get their children enrolled into the Guiding Star School with connections. Having a child who attended the Guiding Star School was no doubt a great networking opportunity, because the parents of these children would be able to meet other wealthy, influential parents at school events and in turn expand their networking. Clearly, Liam and Jovie fell into the latter category, which meant that they did not truly possess any powerful connections or influence at all. Therefore, Sophie did not even want to give them the time of day. She read the forms once more, then turned to Liam and said, "Mr. Cole, I am in no position to tell you this, but I'd like to remind you that the Guiding Star School is one of the best, and thus, most expensive, schools in this city. The tuition fee alone costs upwards of fifty thousand dollars, and according to the information you've given, you a

Sophie smiled at Lara. "Well, I'll leave her in your hands now, Ms. Lara."Lara smiled back. "Thank you, Ms. Devens."Sophie nodded and decided not to keep Lara's class on hold any longer, so she gestured to Liam, signaling him to leave with her. Jovie quickly waved at her father and called out, "Bye, Dad!"Liam grinned and waved back at her. "Be a good girl, Jovie, and I'll come pick you up later!"Once Liam and Sophie left, Lara squatted down and squeezed Jovie's hand reassuringly, then whispered, "Is your name Jovie, my dear?"Jovie nodded. "Yes, Miss, my name is Jovie Cole. My Dad's name is Liam Cole, and he's a very powerful bodyguard!"The entire classroom erupted into a chorus of laughter."What? Did she say her father is a bodyguard?""Did you hear how proud she is? What's there to be proud of? He's just a stupid bodyguard! How embarrassing!""I wouldn't even have dared to tell anyone if my Dad is a bodyguard! My Dad has a few bodyguards of his own, and he always cal

Jovie was on the brink of tears at this point, but when she heard these mean children teasing her father, she knew she had to stand up for him. She shrieked at the top of her lungs, "No, my father isn't a pig, and I'm not a poor man's child! My Dad is a powerful fighter, and he's rich, too! You're all stupid for not believing me! My Dad can fight dozens of bad guys at the same time, and he's also friends with Mr. Reath, the richest man in town! He's also friends with the police and the soldiers…"Tears flowed down Jovie's cheeks as she tried desperately to prove that she was worthy of standing here in the classroom alongside her peers, but at this point, she was beginning to wonder if this was all a mistake.She did not want to go to school anymore! The children here were mean, and she did not like them! She wanted to go home!"Lies! You're not only poor, but you're a liar as well!" The first boy cackled, then sneered knowingly as continued, "All you do is tell lies! You're a big, f

Liam had the nerve to brag right in front of his kid, claiming he rubbed elbows with the high and mighty. How could someone like that even be a parent, teaching their kid such lies?Lara, with a look of sheer exasperation, whispered some comforting words to Jovie before asking her to hang tight in the hallway for a bit.She then headed back into the classroom, showered the students with compliments, and finally got them back in good spirits.Those kids were the coddled offspring of Drunham City's elite, each treated like a little treasure. No matter how outrageous their behavior, Lara would not dare scold them and would always opt for gentle persuasion.Luckily, Lara had a knack for that, and she quickly got them all calmed down again. Her ability to handle those situations was one of the reasons she managed to keep her teaching job at Guiding Star School.After the dust settled, Lara brought Jovie back into the classroom. To avoid any more drama, she skipped the usual stand-and-i

Lara knew exactly what was swirling around in Jovie's young mind. It was because she understood so well that she felt so upset with Liam for feeding Jovie lies.Lara's eyes followed Jovie's petite figure until it vanished at the end of the hallway. Only then did she turn and head back into the classroom to gather her things.Outside the school building, Jovie was quickly cornered by a group of kids, two boys and three girls. The ringleader was the same boy who had been the first to hurl insults at Jovie in the classroom.Dressed in a snazzy little suit, the boy stood there with his arms folded, mimicking an adult's posture. He looked down at Jovie with a sneer. "Liar, you claimed you weren't from a poor family, right? You said your dad knows the richest guy in Drunham City, and that he even bought a big shopping center?"Well, we'll all be at the parent-teacher meeting tomorrow. Let's see what kind of car your so-called rich dad drives. If he shows up on some dinky electric scooter

None of that mattered to Liam, though, not until he caught sight of Jovie's small frame. His face broke into a wide grin as he waved and called out, "Jovie, Daddy's here!"Jovie saw him too, the man with the beaming smile waving just for her. She clutched her backpack strap and, with a pout, made her way over to him.Liam could see she was not her usual cheery self, but nothing else seemed amiss. He figured she had not been bullied, maybe it was just the new-school jitters.He slipped her backpack off her shoulders and hoisted her onto the scooter, giving her nose a playful squeeze. "Time to head home, Jovie. Daddy's got you."Just as they were about to zip away, the window of a nearby Ferrari rolled down with a smooth whir.A little boy in a pint-sized suit pressed his face against the window, sticking his tongue out at Jovie. With a sneer, he jeered, "Hey, fibber, did your big ol' bear of a dad come to get you from school? Ha-ha-ha...""That's not true! I'm no fibber, and my da

Jovie kept her head down, pushing her food around the plate, tight-lipped as ever.Celena's own appetite vanished at the sight. She set her utensils aside and exchanged a look with Liam, who let out a resigned sigh. "I'm just as in the dark as you are. She's been like this since she got home."Celena's worry deepened, her brows knitting together. "What on earth happened? Do you think... maybe she got bullied by the other kids at school?"Celena's worry was not unfounded. Since she had decided Jovie would start school, she had been glued to any news about schools, especially the stories about bullying that seemed to pop up too often.Jovie was usually a bundle of energy, but today, after her first day at school, something was off. Celena's heart tightened with concern."Jovie, honey, did someone at school pick on you?? Or is there something else bothering you? Can you talk to Mommy about it?" Celena asked, her voice a mix of warmth and worry.Jovie's thoughts flashed to the taunts

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
