Liam was pushed aside by the flashy young man in full Armani suit with great force as soon as he overcame the crowd and arrived to Michelle’s rescue.In a blink of an eye, Liam was separated from Michelle, and it required him to take several steps back to regain his balance.Using his sleeve, Liam wiped the blood from his split lips as he gazed at Michelle. Michelle was clearly still in shock by what Liam had done to her as one could tell her reaction was heavily delayed.“Are you alright Michelle? Did he hurt you? Guards, apprehend that insolent man and bring him into custody right this instance!” After checking with Michelle, the young man shouted at the guards angrily. It was because of their failure to protect Michelle that allowed Liam to kiss her without her consent!Upon receiving their orders, the armed guards immediately whipped out their batons in a row. Fearing for their job security, they glared at Liam’s slim figure with rage. Faced with the menacing aura emitted from t
“A baton swing is coming from the right. What’s my success rate of dodging the attack if I move to the left!”[Ding! 53% success rate!]“What’s my success rate of dodging the attack if I move to the right!”[Ding! 88% success rate!]“Then, to the right it is!”Faced with multiple attacks from all directions, Liam’s brain started to work itself to its limit.Using the 'Eye of Gambit,' he could perceive the success rate of anything his mind focused on, including the likelihood of evading an attack from the guards as long as he could anticipate their approach.Consistently, he opted for the action with the highest success rate, deftly sidestepping the guards' swings before launching precise counter-attacks aimed solely at their jaws, effectively knocking them out of the fight!In under a minute, he swiftly incapacitated each of the guards who had encircled him, taking them down with a single precise maneuver for each.Shifting from a daunting 12-to-1 disadvantage, he skillfully reversed
“Move aside! Excuse me, please let me through!”Ashley’s heart was thumping loudly as she anxiously cut through the crowd to get to the forefront. Her beautiful eyebrows were knitted closely together as she was worried about the safety of Liam in her mind.Once she and Liam went their separate ways within the convention hall, she found herself obliged to engage in business matters with the Flander family's associates. Maintaining connection with the others was part of her job as one of the most successful business women of a top 500 company. Therefore, she assigned one of her subordinates to shadow Liam and had her subordinate report regularly to her about Liam’s performance in stone gambling;Everything went fine as the day progressed. She even experienced a sense of joy when her subordinate provided updates on Liam's incredible feat of flawlessly extracting lavender jade from a large rock as if he was performing a miracle.The mesmerizing account of Liam accomplishing the seeming
“At last, Mister Anderson, you've arrived! You must apprehend that contemptible and impudent man standing over there right now! He has committed an unforgivable act against Michelle! I insist that your men detain him immediately and hand him over to us!” Upon seeing that the organiser of the Global Jade Convention had arrived, Michelle’s cousin was the first to speak. Gritting his teeth with rage, he demanded Liam to be seized. “Hold on a moment! I won't stand for that, Mister Anderson! Liam is my fiancé! If you intend to take him away, you'll have to do so over my dead body!” Ashley retorted strongly as she took a step forward to shield Liam from Zin Anderson and his military men. “Ashley… You don’t have to do that! You have helped me enough.” Liam was touched by Ashley’s decision to shield him. Seeing her resolute expression filled him with unexplainable emotions. He was sorry that he had inadvertently drawn Ashley into the mess he had caused. All of a sudden, a strong urge
While Ashley and Liam were in the midst of their conversation, Michelle interjected loudly.Her burning question about who Liam’s birth parents were, mirrored the curiosity shared by everyone at the scene.Liam closed his eyes and sighed silently.His past had finally caught up with him. Ever since his escape from home at sixteen, he had actively evaded any discussions regarding his parents.However, there was no way he could avoid it any longer today given how the event had developed. Moreover, he had nothing to hide.With a melancholy voice, he answered Michelle Walker, his expression filled with gloominess.“My mother’s name is Elizabeth Olsen. My father’s name is Ethan Walker.”“Ethan Walker?! Is he serious? That same Ethan Walker who ruled Novian City with an iron fist is his father?”“How could it be? Wasn't Ethan Walker the father of only two children? I even knew them personally! They are Nathan Walker and Mia Walker respectively! Furthermore, if I recall correctly, his spouse
Michelle's sudden revelation sent shockwaves through the crowd.The rowdy crowd, who were spewing insults and thirsting for Liam’s downfall immediately fell dead silent. No one dared to utter a single word.Even Ashley couldn't help but fix her gaze silently on Liam.In the meantime, Andrew Mason's forehead was drenched in sweat.Despite Liam being an illegitimate child of Ethan Walker, he struggled to believe that he had conspired to bring about Liam's downfall and even turned him into an enemy.“W-What have I done!” Andrew's body trembled uncontrollably, his face etched with horror by the startling news.“That bitch! She kept me in the dark about this and still pitted me against him!” Andrew seethed with rage, inwardly cursing Grace Henson.“That’s right. I am the illegitimate child of Ethan Walker. However, I do not regard myself as part of the Walker family.” Contrary to everyone’s expectation, after Michelle had acknowledged his identity, Liam threw it away without hesitation.H
Michelle’s explanation had thoroughly unveiled the rationale behind the mistreatment he and his mother had suffered. The harsh beatings and scoldings from his step-siblings and stepmother, and the looks of disappointment from his elders were all caused by the Filson and the Walker’s main family. With the Filson family breathing down his father’s neck, his father's slightest display of concern for him and his mother could have placed their lives in even graver jeopardy. He had blamed the wrong person for his mother’s death all this time! “Why are you telling me this?” With tears welling in his eyes, Liam asked in an agitated tone. He had a constant feeling nagging at the back of his mind that Michelle had an ulterior motive for disclosing all this information to him. “My father was killed when I was only a year old, all because he aligned himself with the losing faction. He chose to stand by your father's side, offering unwavering support, only to meet a tragic demise in a sorry
Ashley was the first to react as her eyes widened in shock at the unexpected scene of Michelle Walker kissing Liam on his lips.She immediately reacted and tried to pull Michelle away from Liam with all the strength she could gather, but Michelle was able to fend her off easily.“You vixen! Why are you seducing my fiance?!” Ashley was on the verge of mental breakdown watching another woman kissing Liam.“Wait a second, your tongue! Mmhmm!” On the other hand, while Liam was still in shock, Michelle carried out her subsequent attack on Liam. Sticking her tongue into Liam’s mouth, her flexible tongue replicated what she had learnt from Liam previously, actively exploring all undiscovered areas in Liam’s mouth, giving him a heavenly pleasure as their tongue intertwined.After what seemed like an eternity to Ashley, Michelle finally let go of Liam, but not without biting him on his lips before doing so.After paying back what Liam had done to her in-kind, she smiled devilishly with a look
