“W-William, What are you talking about?” Enduring the pain suffered from the violent fall, Ashley stammered.She tried to keep a poker face, but her trembling limbs and stuttering completely betrayed her true emotions to William.“You are a smart woman, Ashley. However, I'm not as useless as you might believe! Did you honestly think I wouldn't pick up on the sudden shift in your expression? Your Uncle and I have considered all possible scenarios before we decided to do this!” William sneered with contempt as he whipped out a pocket knife all of a sudden.Then, right before Ashley's horrified gaze, he provocatively ran his tongue along the blade of the knife, exhibiting a menacing confidence.“Share with me, Ashley. How did you manage to uncover our scheme with just a phone call? You see, Uncle and I went to great lengths to find a suitable imposter for grandmother, someone who could flawlessly mimic her voice.” Running his pocket knife along the middle of Ashley’s yoga top, he asked w
“Boss, if you are not drinking the champagne, can I have that?”In a Michelin star restaurant, Liam and Damian were having lunch together. Set against the backdrop of a stunning beach, the restaurant offered them exquisite cuisine and breathtaking views.Following a successful venture in Myanmar, Liam's bank account had swelled to a balance of $350 million, thanks to his unique abilities.In addition to amassing a considerable fortune, he had also formed a friendship with Zin Anderson after making a positive impression on him through fighting with his men.Things were going so well that Liam could not believe his luck. He had come a long way. Just two months ago, he had to endure being homeless on the street.Savoring the champagne slowly to relish the magnificent view, Liam felt that the burden on his shoulders had lessened.He had repaid the amount he borrowed from Damian, along with a generous interest as a token of gratitude for his trust in him.Moreover, he had received excellen
Blood was drained instantly from Liam’s face as he realised that the seemingly unremarkable bellboy was actually a member of the world's top mercenary group in disguise. His complexion grew even paler as he registered the presence of over three pairs of eyes in the hotel lobby, all observing his every move. The high probability that they were all armed added to the gravity of the situation. “Ashley…” Liam's eyes narrowed with concern for her. Even a fool could discern that the presence of numerous Blackwater mercenary members in disguise was anything but coincidental. Ashley was most likely kidnapped by them. The situation was even more dire than he had imagined. A single misstep could lead to disaster for everyone involved. The Blackwater group wasn't just a collection of professional killers and warmongers; they were infamous for their ruthlessness towards their targets and evil misdeeds. They were called 'Devils without a conscience’ for a reason. “Don’t worry, Boss.
Amidst the bustling streets of downtown Naypyi City, Myanmar's capital, a vivid yellow Lamborghini Revuelto tore through the streets at an exhilarating pace. Racing at a remarkable speed of 200 km/h, the rented Lamborghini weaved expertly through narrow alleyways and traffic with impressive maneuverability under the control of Liam’s superb driving skills. Ignoring all traffic rules, and with his foot on the accelerator at full force, Liam unleashed the true potential of a Lamborghini Revuelto in the streets of Myanmar, drawing envious looks from everyone around. “Boss, slow down! Watch out, there's a truck in front of you! Ah! I could see memories of my life flashing right in front of my eyes! Boss, the car is in the ongoing traffic lane! Steer the wheel! Mama Mia!” Seated in the passenger seat in a curled up fetus position, Damian’s face was contorted beyond belief. With his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets as he witnessed the numerous near misses, he felt like he might s
“Liam, there are times when you need to make tough choices and sacrifices to protect those dear to you. When the military abandoned my comrades and me, I had to pave a path filled with blood for my fellow soldiers or else we'd have ended up starving on the streets. As someone capable, you're obligated to lead the way for those who rely on you. You should not use your power to inflict harm to others, but you must ensure that those who dare to oppose you feel the weight of your wrath and face the repercussions of their choices.” Zin Anderson said in a stern tone as he placed his hands on Liam’s shoulders before continuing. “The road to the top is filled with blood. You need to make a decision now. I cannot risk my men’s lives and let them fight for your sake while you sit in the back and watch! You need to fight for those that you hold dear yourself. You will not regret your decision if you do that!” Zin Anderson said in a hoarse voice. He had spoken his piece. Liam's decision would sh
“Go! Take up your position!”Upon receiving the commands from the fully equipped Zin Anderson, the entire platoon of men, including Liam and Damian, immediately fanned out and advanced into the abandoned shipyard in a formation resembling an arrow.Their adversaries this time were the notorious Blackwater mercenary group, renowned for their expertise in urban warfare. As a result, their expressions were grim, and the anticipation of not surviving the upcoming battle weighed heavily on their minds.Nonetheless, their movements were crisp and precise. Driven by their complete trust in Zin Anderson, they carried a fearlessness towards death.Liam and Damian stood at the forefront, armed with pistols and clad in simple bulletproof vests.Facing their fear, they courageously advance together with Zin Anderson’s men with the goal of rescuing Ashley.In under a minute, all members successfully infiltrated the deserted shipyard without encountering any problems. After reaching their assigne
[Ding!][Your eyesight is rapidly deteriorating due to overburden on your eyes caused by the forceful activation of ‘Eye of Gambit’!][Kindly deactivate the ability at once to avert potential permanent harm to your eyes!]Upon reading the warning messages shown by the system, Liam was stunned.Evidently, the more he employed his power beyond the confines of the daily quota, the more his eyesight would deteriorate as time went by.It was something he did not expect.Nevertheless, surrendering his usage of the power was out of the question at this critical juncture, especially considering that the lives of everyone were in jeopardy!Deliberately ignoring the warnings given, Liam cautiously emerged from his cover and aimed his gun in a general direction towards the enemies with a composed gaze.As his irises spun rapidly in synchronized motion with his thoughts, he commenced assessing the success rate of hitting an enemy upon squeezing the trigger.“What’s my success rate of hitting an e
“William Flander! How could you do this to Ashley?” Amid the standoff in the room, Liam shattered the stalemate with his resounding voice echoing throughout the entire warehouse as he advanced to the forefront of the ranks.Seeing the injured Ashley who had suffered multiple bruises and cuts on her beautiful face and limbs, Liam's fury surged beyond measure. He could not believe that it was William Flander who planned Ashley’s abduction, and he could not forgive him for what he had done!“William Flander! Release Ashley instantly, and perhaps I'll spare your wretched life! Give it up! You are surrounded from all sides and the mercenaries you employed are all dead!” Gripping the Desert Eagle in his right hand, Liam ordered in a monotone as his frigid gaze locked onto William Flander with immense killing intent.Had Ashley not been taken hostage, he would have fired all the bullets in the chamber without a moment's hesitation.After claiming multiple individual lives with his own hands
