Liam did not like Vincent one bit at all since he repeatedly pissed him off.Liam turned to look at Vincent, who was still in a daze, and asked icily, "Have you made up your mind yet?"Vincent was frozen. His face flushed at the thought of Darion and the others crawling out of the restaurant while hugging their heads.He did not wish to be embarrassed in front of Corie at all, but when he thought of how skillful Liam was when he beat up Darion's men, he felt scared.He glanced at Corie, and then he firmed up his mind. He gritted his teeth, got on all fours, and crawled out of the restaurant like Darion did while everyone watched.Corie was shocked to see Vincent doing that. She did not expect it at all that Vincent would truly crawl out of the restaurant.It was after Vincent was no longer in sight at the restaurant that Corie recovered from the shock.She looked into Liam's information and learned that he was the bodyguard of the general manager of the Bristow Group. She also k

Celena looked back and saw Liam looking at her gently. Both of them were enveloped by an indescribable mood.Suddenly, the mood became a little more flighty."Really?" Celena was interested. She turned to look at Liam, but she suddenly thought of something, and the excitement on her face disappeared.Shaking her head, she said with disappointment, "Forget it. I've got too many things to take care of at work. I can't be away at all right now. Besides, if I were to take time off to enjoy myself now, Cheryl and the others would use it as an excuse to criticize me."Besides, other than rushing the project for Max Group, we have the collaboration project with Mr. Miller as well, which is going to start soon. There's just too many things to handle." Celena got a headache at the thought of all that. However, since she mentioned Mr. Miller, she asked solemnly, "Oh yes, Liam. Mr. Miller has helped me so many times in the past. Do you think I should buy him a meal to thank him?""Huh?" Li

Celena was too stunned for words. Her father never spared her so much as a second glance before this, so one could understand how taken aback she was by this abrupt change in attitude. Not only did he approach her willingly, but even spared her a smile when talking to her. Celena would never have imagined such a thing could happen, not even in a million years.Despite her initial shock, she still nodded, looking rather bewildered, and replied, "He, he's inside."Yafe's smile widened at this, and without another word, he circled past Celena to enter the house. Sherah and Qemal both followed suit, with Sherah even pausing to scoff haughtily at Celena as she passed.Celena decided that her work could wait—she was far more concerned about her family's sudden appearance and was secretly worried that they were here to harm Liam. Without missing a beat, she turned around and followed them into the house.Meanwhile, Liam just strode out of the bedroom, carrying Jovie in his arms, when he c

Trying his very best to quell his resentment of Liam, Yafe plastered a smile on his face and said, "Liam, please take no notice of her. She's just a little agitated. My father is incredibly worried about the two issues that we have brought up and wishes that they be resolved as soon as possible. Cheryl and Wasyl's wedding is to be held on the twenty-eighth of this month, and we have already sent out invitations to all of the rich and famous here in Drunham City. You wouldn't want our family to become the laughingstock of the town when no groom shows up for the wedding, would you?"To Yafe's horror, Liam showed no inclination to care about this at all. His expression was impassive as he shot back, "What does the Stones' public humiliation have anything to do with me?"The smile froze on Yafe's face. Both Sherah and Qemal seemed equally aghast to hear this. Sherah stepped forward, and, upon noticing Celena cowering in a corner of the room, turned her attention to Celena and snapped,

"What? Don't think about this for now?" Wasyl clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles cracked threateningly. There was nothing but white-hot fury in his bloodshot eyes, and he hissed, "Do you have any idea what I've gone through the last few days? I will not let this matter be written off just like that!"His experience in jail, albeit short-lived, was so agonizing that he could not quell his anger toward Liam every time he thought of it. Hatred and fury seemed to seep right out of his every pore.Cheryl wanted to talk some sense into him, but she was so startled by his outburst that she merely stared at him, terrified. Wasyl, suddenly realizing how rashly he acted, immediately took a deep breath to try to calm himself down. Gone was the maniacal sneer on his face and was instead replaced by an expression of deep remorse. He took Cheryl's hand in his and patted it gently. "Cheryl, please don't worry. I'll make sure everything goes smoothly for our wedding on the twenty-eighth.
