THE VENGEFUL HEIR Cleared
The tension in the hall became unbearable after Liam spoke. Lord David hesitated for a while, dreading what might happen if the card did not clear the payment.Mia shook her head in frustration. Just when she thought Liam had refrained from boasting, here he was, bragging about having a way out again.“Do you think this is some kind of joke?!” She snapped, her voice sharp and piercing.“You are a part of this family now and whatever happens to us affects you as well. So stop pretending you’ve got everything figured out and let us figure a way out of this.” Liam shifted his gaze towards her and was filled with disappointment. He didn’t care if everyone else refused to believe him, but Mia? He only wanted her confidence, but yet again he couldn’t even get that.“Use the card.” He repeated firmly, meeting Mia’s annoyed look with an intent gaze.Seeing the determined look on his face, Lord David reached into his pocket and brought out the card, his hand trembling. At that point, his mind
THE VENGEFUL HEIR The Manipulation
The Stevens became even more skeptical after Liam’s card cleared. Even after Keenan had turned and walked away, they still couldn’t make any sense of it.Mia stood frozen in spot, shifting her gaze towards Liam in confusion.Meanwhile, Yona became more convinced that Lord David had secretly orchestrated the payment.“Your grandfather would not waste $100 million just to cover that loser. Something else must be going on.” Melissa persisted.“Then how would you explain what just happened? Do you really believe that that bumpkin could have a $100 million?” Yona interjected, expressing doubt.However, before anyone could say something, she quickly added, “I think there’s only one way to figure this out.”Carl leaned in curiously upon hearing this, eager to unravel Liam’s secrets. He could not stand the fact that the bumpkin loser that he’d looked down on and belittled this entire time could be someone greater than him.“I think we should hire a private investigator,” Yona whispered. “I ha
THE VENGEFUL HEIR Victor's Party
Mia remained frozen as the thought gnawed at her, causing her stomach to churn in dread.At that time she spots Liam and filled with anger, she turns and starts approaching him, but just then, the microphone echoes loudly interrupting.The MC announces that the party is about to begin and calls Victor to the stage.As Victor took the stage, a warm smile stretched his lips as he stared directly at Mia, making her uneasy.He then began, “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for being here tonight. My family just secured a new position in the Chamber of Commerce and we are very excited about this opportunity. It just means that we’ll be able to take better care of the people around us and support the growth and progress of this city.”The crowd erupted in loud cheer, but Victor waved his hand, silencing them. He took a sip of his drink and continued, “Now, I understand that there are some people, some not too far away from us who might not be able to achieve this kind of feat, but it is not t
THE VENGEFUL HEIR Threatened
After returning from Victor’s party, Mia was even more confused than before. Victor’s little stunt at the party had embarrassed her further, but still there was a trace of concern in the things he said. At this point, she did not know what to think. Being married to Liam was proving to be more and more difficult by the day.She got up from the bed that morning, headed for her morning walks, but as she stepped outside the front entrance, she saw a package. Shifting her gaze curiously, she could not help but wonder who it was for, but on a closer look, she found Liam’s name on the package and her curiosity grew even more.Slowly, she reached for it, her heart pounding in her chest. She carried the box and hastily returned to her room. For a long while, she stared at the box, not knowing if to open it or not. A part of her felt that whatever was inside that box was the clue she had been looking for, something that could reveal a piece of Liam’s past, but another part of her hesitated,
THE VENGEFUL HEIR Torn
Lord David remained quiet for a while, a deep frown settling on his fist. Peter had tried to remain casual, but he could still sense the threatening tone in the man’s voice and so calmly asked, “Did anyone in my family do anything to offend you, Mr Nelson?”Peter smirked and picked a flower from the garden, “That’s the thing about families isn’t it? They can be compared to this flower,” he started, plucking the petals off, “If one of these is infected, then the entire flower can become rotten, left to rot on the ground.” Lord David became more confused as he spoke. He feared Peter was talking about Carl.He knew that Peter Nelson had some partnerships with the Salernos even though he did not know the terms of their arrangement, but after settling the Salerno debt, he couldn’t fathom why the Nelsons would still have an issue with his family.He opened his mouth to speak, but the words caught in his throat. Peter quickly interjected again, this time, the calm look on his face had compl
THE VENGEFUL HEIR Sleeping With a Stranger
Springfield City.In a small motel room, Mia sat naked, covering herself with a blanket. Her face was ice-cold.“You had a great time last night, didn’t you?”Her voice was cold, making Liam uncomfortable.Liam lay casually on the bed and raised an eyebrow. “Yeah. Didn’t you enjoy it too?”Tears welled up in Mia’s eyes. She raised her hand and slapped Liam hard across the face.“How dare you say that? I’m calling the police and having you arrested!”Liam rubbed his face, looking confused.“Miss, get your facts straight. You were the one who dragged me to this room last night! Don’t you remember what happened? You were drugged. I helped you, and now you’re blaming me?”Mia froze. Her head throbbed as she tried to recall the events of the previous night.She had been drinking at a bar when, suddenly, a strange heat swept through her body. A few sleazy-looking men started approaching her.She wanted to resist, but her body was weak and powerless.At that moment, a handsome man appeared.
THE VENGEFUL HEIR Yona's Scheme
Liam was stunned. He hadn’t expected Mia to say that.But in the tense moment, he managed to stay calm and asked, “If I’m supposed to pretend to be your boyfriend, shouldn’t you at least tell me your name first?”Mia frowned slightly but quickly responded, “I’m Mia Stevens, CEO of the Stevens Corporation, 21 years old, and single. Just let me handle everything, and don’t talk too much, alright?”Mia Stevens?Liam was stunned, because the woman in front of him was exactly the fiancee of him!He hadn’t expected the world to be so full of coincidences!Think of this, Liam smiled. Was it the destiny?Seeing Liam’s amused expression, Mia grew irritated. She glared at him. “What’s so funny? Hurry up and tell me your name, or we’ll be exposed in no time!”Liam, now completely relaxed, smiled and said, “I’m Liam. Liam Moran. I don’t think you need to worry too much. After all, there’s nothing scandalous about sharing a bed with your fiancé, right?”Mia scoffed, her tone dripping with sarcasm.
THE VENGEFUL HEIR A Little White Lie
David’s words stunned everyone in the room. Except for Liam, no one could believe how things had turned out.Yona stammered, “G-Grandpa, you must be mistaken! You really believe Mia’s lies? She must be fabricating everything to protect her reputation!”“Grandpa, we cannot let someone with such loose morals lead the Stevens family! She’ll ruin everything!”Yona was panicking. She had set up what she thought was the perfect trap, but now everything was spiraling out of control.David studied Liam’s face. As soon as he entered the room, something about him looked familiar. Then it clicked—Liam was the grandson of his old friend.“I’m sure I haven’t made a mistake,” David said calmly. “Liam, your grandfather is...?”Liam answered politely, “Grandpa David, my grandfather is Shawn Moran, the current head of the Moran family.”David smiled in satisfaction. “Good! Excellent! I was afraid Shawn might not keep his word, but it seems he really sent his grandson.”Mia was completely confused by e

Liam's Card
As Keenan announced that he no longer wanted the money, the Steven family started rejoicing and praising Victor who shamelessly accepted despite not knowing what was happening.Liam sneered, shaking his head in disbelief. This time he didn’t bother to convince them that he was the one that helped them. However, the joyous atmosphere quickly faded as Lord David announced, “We’ll pay it back.”The celebration instantly stopped as those words fell and everyone shifted their gaze to him, frozen with shock and confusion.“We are an upright and esteemed family, if we owe anybody money, we are going to pay it back.” He added, glanced at Carl with a softer gaze.Even when he still condemned Carl for acting so erratically without letting anyone in the family know, he could not accept that he got away with this without having to pay.Lord David believed that every action and decision made held a deep weight, and it did not sit right with his conscience that they would just walk away without b

Carl's $100 Million Debt
The man stepped forward boldly, staring intimidatingly at Lord David,“Keenan, I’m from the Salerno family.”As soon as those words fell, a shockwave hit the room.Melissa and Yona shifted their gazes between each other, filled with panic.They thought this situation with the Salernos was over, so why were the thugs yet?Liam arched his brow in confusion, slightly irritated. He believed he’d taken care of this Salerno business when he put Luara in charge of their empire and affairs, so why were these men disrupting the atmosphere and of their dinner?He reached his hand into his pocket to retrieve his phone and call Laura. With Jack’s help, by now she should have become the master of that family, and be able to handle all their affairs easily.However, just before he could, Lord’s David interrupted,“Why are you here?” He asked, still trying to keep a bold demeanor.Keenan smirked and snapped his fingers. Immediately, one of his men hurried towards him and handed him a paper.He rais

The Mansion Infiltration
Liam knew that with Jack’s help, Laura would become the master of the Salerno family, which would expand his control over the underground mafia and mobs.As he was about to leave, Manu’s phone suddenly rang causing him to stop midstrife.He turned slowly towards the direction, his curiosity rising. Laura stepped closer to Manu’s body, searched his pockets for the phone, and brought it out. “Answer it,” Liam said.Hesitantly, Laura raised the phone to her ear, her hand trembling, and answered,“Manu, it’s Peter Carpi. I know we agreed to meet much later, but I’m running out of time and need that $5 million loan. The market is even more cruel than I anticipated.”Immediately, Luara placed the call on hold, unsure of what to say, and turned towards Liam, “It’s Peter Carpi.”As soon as Liam heard the name, his eyes narrowed in curiosity. He stepped closer to her with a stern expression causing Laura to become uncomfortable,“What does he want?”“$5 million,” Laura answered.Liam’s eyes

Laura
Laura’s eyes widened in shock when Liam spoke. How was she going to lead an entire gang and handle the affairs of the grand estate? She wondered, staring at Liam wordlessly. She had only wanted to get revenge for herself and her mother and never imagined she’d be running the empire of the man who wrecked her life.Suddenly, at that point, something else occurred to her. Who was this man, and how could he just appoint her to run Manu’s gang and empire?“Who are you?” She asked with curiosity. However, Liam ignored her and reached into his pocket, retrieved the personal phone he used to communicate with Jack, and handed it to her, “Call this number. He’ll handle everything for you.”“You’re going to have to be careful Laura, Manu might be dead, but you’re still at much risk.”Laura’s face twisted with worry, “What do you mean?” She asked dreadfully.Liam heaved a deep sigh, hesitating for a while. He did not know whether involving the girl in any of this seemed right, however, the mo
