The Ingenious Liam Price 156: Affection For Avery Duffer
“Put your gun down or I’ll order them to shoot,” Mr. Harrington barked this order at Avery. And Liam wondered what the hell she was thinking to aim her gun at the man’s daughter. Over fifteen men were pointing their guns at them, mostly her.“Have your men put their guns down first,” Avery ensured her voice was louder than that of Mr. Harrington, and the man was taken aback because he couldn’t see anything like fear in her eyes or her body language. She appeared as calm as ever as if the situation at hand wasn’t risky.“Are you trying to mess with me?” Mr. Harrington narrowed his eyes in their sockets.“I work for the CIA, Mr. Charles Harrington. You try to hurt Liam, then your daughter will suffer the same fate.” Avery sneered at Mr. Harrington without any ounce of fear.“I’m warning you,” Mr. Harrington gritted out after throwing a glance at his daughter who looked scared shitless.She pulled away from Liam and stood right in front of him as if she was trying to shield his body from
The Ingenious Liam Price 157: Marry Me
"Why did you do it?" Asked Liam's former butler when he showed up at Liam's the following morning."It wasn't…" Liam stopped from going further with his explanation. No point in mentioning Avery's name."Things wouldn't have escalated to this extent if you had agreed," Gibson appeared to be disappointed in Liam."I can't marry someone I don't love, things aren't done that way," Liam waved this off and drank wine from a glass cup. "Mr. Harrington would have protected you, he has powerful men," Gibson pointed out."Yet they're in the cell," Liam put his hands in his pockets, "I don't need any form of protection.""Your father would've wanted you to marry Laura Harrington," Gibson pinned on this, his face in a frown."Too bad I can't fulfill his wishes," Liam raised his glass in Liam's direction, before slurping the rest of the wine in one gulp.Gibson just sighed and shook his head. He could see how strong-headed Liam was.Big Tony made his presence known and signed at his boss that he
The Ingenious Liam Price 158: Plaza (I)
“Did you get into a fight with someone?” Gibson questioned Liam. They were inside Liam’s car in front of a plaza.“No, why did you ask?” Liam shifted his gaze to his former butler.“What happened to your hand?” Asked Gibson, he seemed more curious this time.And suddenly, Liam had flashbacks of what happened the previous day. Chloe was being suicidal because he disagreed with marrying her, and when he tried to take the broken piece of wine glass from her hand, he sustained a deep cut. Chloe fainted afterward, and Liam took her to his hospital, after tying a piece of cloth on his bruise.“I fell.” Liam lied after a long pause of going down the lane of that flashback.Gibson eyed Liam, upon knowing the young man wasn’t telling the truth. Still, he didn’t press further, he knew better than to keep questioning Liam.“Now what’s next?” Liam stared straight ahead of him, fixing his gaze on the plaza that was booming with a lot of customers in different shops.“Approach the shop owners, sp
The Ingenious Liam Price 159: Plaza (II)
The Ingenious Liam Price 159: Plaza (II)Five hours later, the shops were getting closed by their owners and employees. Only for them to stare at the open area to see the place getting set up for a party. They were stunned to see this because such had never occurred before. Worse of it all, people were trooping in like ants that had been attracted by sugar.“Sure this will work?” Gibson was a bit skeptical.“I believe so,” Liam had his usual smirk on his face as he drank straight from his wine bottle. The people he had hired were setting up a stage in the open area of the Plaza.“What’s that for?” Gibson raised a brow in confusion.“I invited some well-known Musicians to perform tonight,” Liam responded. He could see the shop owners together with some of their employees. They appeared beyond shocked at the occurrence unfolding in front of them.Thirty minutes later, the whole plaza had over a thousand people. And when the shop owners started spotting their favorite Musicians, they
The Ingenious Liam Price 160: Plaza (III)
Liam's vision was blurry at first when he flicked his eyes open. He could feel his body against something hard and cold, indicating that he was on the floor. And he could make out someone moving in the background through the haziness.His hand moved to hold the back of his head because he could feel a sharp pain there and it wasn't even a headache.Liam blinked until his eyes were free of the blurriness, and he could spot funny shoes that were obviously worn by the clown."You're up, Liam Price," it was the first time he was hearing the clown speak. And the clown's voice sounded rather mature, like a man in his forties."What have you done to me?" Liam groaned as he stroked the back of his head once more."Nothing, Mr. Price. I just made you pass out for two hours," replied the clown."With a baseball bat," Liam gritted out as he sat up right. He couldn't hear any noise from outside, which meant the party was over and people had already left."You got that right," The clown hunkered d
The Ingenious Liam Price 161: Plaza (IV)
When Liam went to the plaza by noon the following day, the shop owners agreed to have a meeting with him. And as he was invited into an open space for the meeting, he scanned through the people, wondering who portrayed himself as a clown on the previous day evening."Who is Henry Mobster here?" He inquired."There's no one who bears that name," someone replied after they had all put their heads together to talk.And Liam knew he had lost his chances of knowing the clown. Everyone seemed unusually calm and the only way he could figure out the real identity of the clown was if he listened to their voices with caution."We saw what you did yesterday," another shop owner pointed out."And you're?" Liam asked."The owner of shop number five," the man stepped forward and folded his arms across his chest. He had broad shoulders and it was clear he was trying to seem intimidating to Liam. Only to find out that Liam was even burlier than him.This made him feel less of himself, that he had to
The Ingenious Liam Price 162: Samuel Roderick
Liam was having a hard time thinking straight upon reaching home. He couldn't return to continue the meeting with the rest shop owners, after what Samuel Roderick told him. How was it possible that someone else knew about the gold apart from him and Gibson?And the same Samuel Roderick stated that his father, Brandon Price, killed all the men who buried the gold underground. It was obvious this person knew a lot even more than his former butler, Gibson. "Liam, you've been acting strange," It was Avery who had shown up unannounced at Liam's place and she was standing at the doorway."It's nothing," Liam sighed. He was in his gym, sitting on the floor after working out."It's actually something," Avery lowered her eyes in their sockets as she observed him.Liam paused for a moment and contemplated telling Avery about the gold. It was such a huge thing that he was meant to not disclose to anyone, but Avery was now like a part of him, even though he never admired such."Come," he quietl
The Ingenious Liam Price 163: Gay Club
Liam cursed deeply under his breath as he stood on the small queue, hating the fact that he was playing that role once more. It made him remember Wang Lui An, Charks An son."First Time here?" The bouncer who was dressed in a female outfit smirked at Liam, and Liam just rolled his eyes in their sockets. They searched him to see if he was carrying pepper spray or anything to hurt someone because it was widely known that straight men made their way into that club just to torture some gays for being gay.Liam walked into the club and immediately felt repulsed when he found two men locking lips at some corner, and a few dancing and grinding on themselves.The urge to throw up was overwhelming, but he just held himself."Just take a deep breath and relax," Avery jabbed her shoulder into Liam's stomach. She was there too after they had spent hours arguing since Liam disagreed with going to the gay club alone until she agreed to tag along.She was dressed like a man. Wearing a cap and a hoo
