After taking some time to thank Liam for saving her life last night, Ashley’s grandmother hurriedly left the dining room without having breakfast, leaving Liam and Ashley behind intentionally.

With her departure, an awkward tension enveloped the room as Liam and Ashley consciously avoided making eye contact with each other.

The silence lasted a good five minutes before Liam finally opened his mouth.

"Miss Flander, you don’t have to force yourself to seduce me. I will not do your bidding. As I mentioned before, I was only going to pretend to be your fiance just this one time.”

Confused, Ashley's eyebrows furrowed as she asked, "What do you mean by that?"

“You wanted to create the illusion to your grandmother that we are dating, isn’t it? The timing where you suddenly started to flirt with me and the arrival of your grandmother was a little too coincidental. Besides, I find it hard to believe that you would meet an acquaintance wearing just a sexy nightgown.” Liam explained, giving perf

Respond! Where did everyone disappear to?"

    “You good-for-nothing swine! How dare you waste my precious time!” The middle-aged woman who was manning the payment counter erupted with anger, her face filled with fury.Her loud outburst instantly caused a large commotion in the overcrowded hospital with everyone’s attention drawn towards Liam’s direction.“What do you mean by that? My card can’t be used?” Liam asked, feeling puzzled. His bank account had more than five million dollars, with the majority of the money earned from selling the horrendous-looking horse carving to Ashley.It was impossible that his bank card was denied. He had a bad feeling about this.“Can you try swiping the card again? It’s possible that your machine was faulty.” Liam asked with a polite tone.However, his request was met with unreasonable insults from the mean woman.“Try again?

    “You heard it right. I can’t believe Grace Henson is so shameless! She, along with her mother, have accused you of stealing cash from their safety deposit.” Ashley lambasted Liam’s ex wife for framing Liam.Although she had only met Liam for a few days, she believed that Liam was not someone who would steal from the others from her observation.Rather, it was apparent to her that Grace Henson was acting under the instructions of Andrew Mason to frame Liam for humiliating him at the Flander family’s party.“At this very moment, she is demanding fifty million dollars in compensation from you. If you do not comply with her demand, it will lead her to press charges against you. As a result of her accusation, your bank account was flagged and suspended.” Ashley explained to Liam. Her timely explanation helped Liam understand his current dire situation. He had underestimated the ruthlessness of Andrew Mason!The Mason family had already initiated their merciless revenge against him! They a

    Less than a minute after Liam ended his call with Ashley, a bald man wearing an expensive armani suit hurriedly dashed towards the payment counter with a panicked look on his face. As if his life depended on it, he began to shout as loud as he could despite knowing that he was in a hospital where making loud noises was prohibited. “Liam Walker! Is there a Liam Walker here?” The bald man shouted across the room as he frantically looked for Liam. With sweat dripping all over his forehead, he desperately searched for Liam’s figure in the room where Liam was located, completely disregarding any staff members who greeted him along the way. When he finally arrived at the payment counter, the tired bald man leaned against the counter to catch his breath. While he was out of breath, Liam finally approached him and tapped his shoulder, introducing himself as the person he was desperately looking for. “You are Liam Walker?” When the bald man saw Liam, a visible smile crept up on his face.

    “Hey, young man, are you done with your selection? You have been going at it for almost an hour now. Your indecisiveness is like my grandmother! I have a bunch of customers still waiting for their turn. Can you please hurry up?” In an isolated corner of the convention hall, Liam was alone, busy examining the stones available for sale in one of the stores, oblivious to the long queue that was formed behind him. With only three chances to verify if there was jade inside a stone, he had to rely on an alternative method to determine whether jade was present in them. “Let’s see… The texture on the surface of this stone is a bit sandy and there are small traces of jade veins appearing across the surface… The internet article that I read, mentioned that these veins are natural patterns on the rock that indicate the presence of jadeite inside.” Liam muttered under his breath as he stared intensely at the stone in his palm with complete focus. “Judging from the spiral pattern, it is highly

    Complete silence descended upon the press conference as everyone remained in a state of blank anticipation following Liam's powerful declaration. The audience, including the bodyguards, held their breath as they closely watched the battle between Liam and Damian Flander. Even Damian Flander himself watched Liam with fear and anxiety as he anticipated a violent retaliation from Liam after finding out that Liam was part of the notorious Walker family. A full minute elapsed swiftly with nothing unfolding. With all the focus of everyone on him, Liam continued to maintain his calm demeanor, standing alongside Ahsley, shielding her from potential harm.

    “Stop! Raise your hands and display them! Any sudden movement and we will be forced to incapacitate the both of you!” Motivated by the substantial rewards pledged by Damian Flander, the head of the guards issued this command as all the nearby guards overcame their fear of Liam and drew their guns from their holsters.Normally, discharging firearms in a densely populated area with innocent bystanders is strongly discouraged. However, the prospect of a substantial reward had caused those guidelines to be disregarded entirely.With the barrels of their guns aimed at Liam, multiple guards started to step forward to apprehend Liam and Ashley. If Liam was to make any sudden movement, the guards would not hesitate to open fire immediately.Even though Liam had demonstrated superhuman strength and prowess in close combat, all the guards were convinced that he would be no match for their firearms.Furthermore, with Liam encircled by guns aimed at him from all directions, the likelihood of his

    “Ah!” Ashley screamed out when one of the guards that surrounded her started charging towards her at full speed.She tried to flee from her spot but before she could even move her feet, she realised that the assailant had already seized her arm.“Let go of me!” With her arm in his grip, she made a desperate attempt to break free with all her strength. However, her act of resistance only seemed to infuriate Damian's Flander guard instead of helping her escape.Raising his hand with rage, the guard’s fist came crashing down towards Ashley’s face to teach her a lesson.Even though Ashley could anticipate the assailant's fist heading her way, she found herself powerless to defend against it.

    “Stop it! Stop laughing, you imbeciles! This is not funny at all.” In the press conference, Damian Flander bemoaned his frustration and discontent while jumping up and down in a fit of anger.His face bore an unsightly appearance, marked by bloodshot eyes and a furious expression. Clenching his teeth and fists in anger, his face was heavily distorted with rage.With a hint of madness in his eyes, his current expression was a far cry from his enthusiastic self at the beginning of the press conference. His reputation that he painstakingly built up was ruined.How? Just what kind of sorcery did Ashley cast? Everything in the press conference had gone awry after her appearance! Today was meant to be the day of his coronation as the king! He was supposed to be the king of the world, not a major laughing stock for the public!As he shifted his gaze and spotted his ineffectual son who had gone into a daze, he cursed even more vehemently inwardly.

    Following the collective gasp of disbelief from the entire nation in response to the astounding scene before them, an uncomfortable silence descended upon the press conference.Nearly every man, including the online users, who witnessed the astonishing scene instinctively touched their groin area to confirm the integrity of their own genitals as they gulped in unison.A few of them even went to the extent of visually confirming that everything remained unchanged despite being in a public setting.Looking at the unexpected response of the crowd, Damian Flander shifted his gaze to look at William Flander. When he saw that William Flander was no longer a true man, his face turned incredibly ugly. He could not believe his eyes.“This…This… How is this possible!!” Damian Flander exclaimed, pointing at William Flander's groin area.He wanted to demand an answer from Willaim Flander immediately on what had happened, but an emotionless monotone voice echoed in the vicinity, interrupting him.
