THE VENGEFUL HEIR Getting Married
After Liam left the mansion, he drove straight to his newly gifted mansion, exhausted from his day. However, as soon as he walked into the house, his phone suddenly buzzed. Heaving a tired sigh, Liam retrieved the phone wondering who could be calling at this time. Seeing it was Mia, he hesitated for a while and then answered. He had barely said hello before Mia’s annoyed voice sounded, “Listen, my grandfather has demanded that we register for our marriage first thing tomorrow morning. I’ve tried to talk him out of it and convince him that we don’t need to rush into it, but he won’t let up. So meet me at the registrar's office tomorrow morning, do not keep me waiting.” Liam hesitated for a while. He could tell from her tone that she did not want this marriage, but there was not much he could do. “Okay, I’ll be there.” “Does it not bother you?” Mia sharply interjected, her voice tinged with anger and frustration. “I mean you are about to enter a fake marriage with a complete
THE VENGEFUL HEIR Friendly Competition
After a short drive, they arrived at the Carpi Sports Club. It was one of the most exclusive sports clubs in the city for the wealthy class.Mia and Yona were warmly welcomed as they arrived at the archery range, and because Liam was with them, he was allowed entry. Outside the hall, several young people were gathered, watching as Victor attempted to break his own record. Liam glanced and could see a man firing an arrow at a target with several others. Suddenly the announcer yelled in excitement, “Ladies and gentlemen, I can’t believe it. Victor Carpi has set a new record. He’s the undefeated archery champion of the world!” Victor turned around, bowing gracefully to the cheers and applause from the crowd and then he spotted Yona and approached her with a smile. “Yona, Mia, I’m glad you could make it.” But just as he spoke, his eyes fell on Liam and immediately, the excitement on his face slowly faded. “So he’s here too.” “Yeah unfortunately so. He’s Mia’s husband, they
THE VENGEFUL HEIR Liam Wins?
However, Liam did not pay attention to Victor's provocation; he remained confident, but the people around him booed. "Country bumpkin, just admit defeat! Victor scored full marks! Don't be a clown!" Liam ignored the people around him and took the bow and arrows handed to him by the staff. Victor looked at Liam in disbelief, "Kid, don't you understand the rules of archery? I've already scored full marks; there's no way you can beat me! I advise you to admit defeat early and divorce Mia!" Liam glanced at him mockingly, "The competition isn't over yet, and you already think you've won?" Hearing Liam's words, Victor sneered, "Fine, then let me see how this clown will perform!" Liam ignored the surrounding boos and jeers and easily picked up the bow and arrows. Just when everyone thought Liam was going to embarrass himself, he surprisingly pulled out three arrows in one go! Before the laughter could start, Liam quickly shot all three arrows within three seconds, and the onl
THE VENGEFUL HEIR President Young
Author’s POVMichael frowned upon seeing the crowd that formed. He had come to meet a friend and did not want to be disturbed and so waved his hand in displeasure, and immediately his bodyguards formed a wall, blocking off the guards. The camera flashes and whispers were cut short as his secretary stepped forward, her voice calm yet commanding,“Everyone please remain calm. Mr Young does not want to be disturbed, but he has told me to inform you that he will be hosting a charity banquet to express his gratitude to the divine doctor for healing his daughter.”The announcement sent a shockwave of excitement across the crowd. Soon they started whispering about the exclusivity of the event.Liam on the other hand did not look so interested. He knew the Young family was prominent, but seeing the reaction from the crowd, he could not help but be impressed.“Huh,” he scoffed with a thoughtful look, and Mia who was standing beside him turned around.“So President Young is so prestigious, int
THE VENGEFUL HEIR The Invite Dilemma
Author’s POVMia remained speechless for a while, not sure what to say, or how to feel about Liam’s pestering.Her brows knitted in confusion, “Why?” Liam pushed off against the car and marched closer to her, “I told you. I’ll get you to where you want to go.”Mia’s frustration increased, tired of his incessant pretentious acts.“You don’t have tickets either. Stop acting like you can just magically fix everything.”Liam chuckled softly, unfazed by her words. “Maybe you should stop underestimating me.”Mia huffed, but there was something about Liam’s calm demeanor that kept her waiting around a bit longer. Finally, she gave a reluctant nod, “Fine. Let’s go home.”Going back to the Stevens mansion with Liam was a feeling she had to get used to. With Liam around, she constantly felt like her space was being intruded upon and knew it would take some time to get used to that, but if she could not do anything to convince her grandfather about getting a divorce now, time with Liam would be
THE VENGEFUL HEIR The Young Banquet
Author’s POVLiam did not need any invitation to attend the banquet. It was being hosted in honor of him after all, and even if he had nothing to do with President Young's daughter’s recovery, he was sure that he could still get in easily.However, upon hearing his claims, Carl burst into laughter. “You? Get into President Young’s banquet?” “This isn’t some joke, Liam.”Yona chimed in, “Why are we even wasting our time listening to this braggart? We all know he doesn’t have any connections to get into any place.”Liam flashed them a cold smirk, ignoring them, and turned toward Mia, his gaze softening as he stared at her, “Would you like to go to the banquet with me?”Mia froze, caught off guard by the question. She did not know if she could trust Liam, but his confidence about getting them in had left her intrigued. Her cheeks flushed as all eyes turned toward her, the room suddenly quiet.“Why don’t you go with your husband to his fantasy banquet.” Yona taunted.“I’m sure he’ll pro
THE VENGEFUL HEIR Liam Wins
Author’s POVAfter a long ride to the banquet address, filled with tension, the car finally came to a halt in front of the grand estate. Mia stepped out, her heels clicking against the cobblestone driveway. Her hands trembled as she smoothed her dress, her heart still racing.At first, she was not certain this was the right address for the event, but as she turned around, she noticed luxurious cars pulling in, spilling out men in tailored suits and women in shimmering gowns. Yona and Carl sat in the backseat of the car with sour expressions, “This is a waste of time,” Carl grumbled. “He probably got the address off the internet. What’s the plan, Liam? Beg your way in?”Yona scoffed. “Exactly. There’s no way someone like him can get into a place like this.”Despite arriving at the banquet, Mia’s nerves were still wrecking. This was only half the challenge. They still had to get in, or else they’d have to kneel and apologize to her bratty sister, and judging from the league of people
THE VENGEFUL HEIR The Hostess
Author’s POVYona and Luca were still frozen in shock with a disheartened look.Meryl Shaw, the hostess of the party shifted a cold look at them. Without anyone mentioning she could tell that they were trying to cause problems for Liam.Turning towards Liam, she asked, “Mr. Maron, is everything alright here?”Liam smirked coldly and shook his head, “No, Luca and Yona were just about to honor our challenge and kneel, isn’t that right?” He said, flashing them a smug grin.Luca trembled and stammered in his reply, convinced that this was just a strange coincidence, “I– this– I believe there’s some misunderstanding here.”“Sir, you heard him. Kneel.” Meryl interjected, not bothered to hear what Luca had to say.Luca and Yona’s faces turned pale, but almost immediately, they became enraged, “Who the hell do you think you’re talking to?” Luca snarled, glaring at her.“I’m an esteemed employee of this company, and have every right to be here, and you– you’re what? Just some mid-level nobody?

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

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,

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 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

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

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
