The Olympic swimming tournament ended with Arthur Price winning and qualifying for the finals, and the whole place went haywire with people jubilating at this. Authur went to complete the embrace of his family members, he was so euphoric to see them there, he hugged Liam even harder because he wouldn't have made it if not for him.Liam's eyes briefly connected with Charlotte Price, right at the time Authur was nearly choking him with the tight hug. Charlotte glowered at him with contempt, wishing she could strangle him with her bare hands. He made her sleep in the cell for two nights and then called off the case right on the day of Arthur's game. She was pissed off upon seeing her kids give Liam the brotherly treatment, the way they looked at him with nothing but love and admiration in her eyes. Liam didn't look away until Charlotte broke off the glaring competition at last. He felt she thought did her a favor when she had no idea of what was about to hit her in the face.Authur w
Liam bit back a groan as Doctor Reynolds pressed a damp hot towel to his face.A broken nose and swollen cheek were what he sustained from the fight since Ted focused more on his face than every other part of his body. Ted had his own fair share of bruises. It was his twin, Bruce, who separated the fight and took him home. Stevie-Lou left after driving Liam back home because she needed to check up on Jake. So Liam was alone with half of his clique; Sinclair and Doctor Reynolds. "You should have avoided the fight, boss," Sinclair sighed heavily, with his hands on his waist."I tried but he was drunk and relentless," Liam was being defensive when he stopped upon seeing someone at the door."Gibson?" His late father's butler stared at his feet as he quietly made his presence known to everyone. Silence took over the atmosphere as everyone looked at him.Liam dropped all charges so he was released. "Can you give us a moment?" Liam directed this to Doctor Reynolds and Sinclair.Wordl
Big Tony stood 6'7 and had a massively muscular body. His curly brown hair was tied back in a ponytail, and he had a thick stubble on his chin. His gray eyes betrayed the fact that he had seen way too much for a guy his age, and the scar on his forehead was deep, as if he had gotten into a battle with someone and been sledgehammered.Because he was so tall, he had to drop his head slightly before passing through the entrance doors. He was burlier than all of the bodyguards Liam hired at times.Clad in a black shirt and denim jeans, the strap of a backpack resting on his shoulder, with that perpetual giant frown on his face as he looked at the three men standing in front of him."So…you're Big Tony," Liam's hand was resting on his chin with his eyes lowered in their sockets as they repeatedly did once over at Big Tony's appearance.Big Tony's response was a grunt."He seems like a robot," Sinclair stated before nearing Big Tony's side and poking his finger into Big Tony's chest, "see,
"Why did you do that?"'He needed to be given the bitter taste of his own medicine.'"But I never asked you to vandalize his car to the fullest extent. You should've let me handle things myself."'Well, you sure have a sluggish way of handling things. You wanted to let him get away with it.'Liam broke into a sigh as he read this. They were heading back home in a different car, with Sinclair driving them. And Liam was still stupefied that Big Tony acted up for his sake. He could still remember the mortified look on Hunter's face and how he screamed so hard that it almost shattered the glass walls."Never act out on your own will, Tony. Wait until I give you an order first," Liam gritted out.'It was to protect you. When they strike you with one, give them one hundred. That will serve as a lesson to not mess with you.' Big Tony held the paper in his face. It was getting filled up so his response was at the end."Are you my bodyguard or my butler?" Liam asked with both his eyebrows rais
Liam couldn't even sleep at his home that night since it was already messed up. He hired people to clean up the mess, sent the injured people to his hospital, and then checked into his hotel to spend the night. He took his men along with him to draft out a plan to teach Hunter Gail a lesson."Charlotte is the love of his life, if you really want to get through to him, you should hurt her," Sinclair suggested."No," Liam shook his head, clearly not interested in doing that. Of course, he wanted to teach Charlotte a lesson before exposing her for killing his father, still, he couldn't hurt her like that when she was the mother of his step-siblings. It was just complicated for him to do so."We don't have to hurt anyone to get through Hunter, he's the one who vandalized my home.""Do you want to call in Miss Avery, so she can help?" Sinclair suggested.Again, Liam shook his head no. Avery was already upset over her unrequited love, he couldn't bother her with his problems right now. She
Hunter Gail was pleased at the realization that Liam didn't show up at the office that day, it made him forget about the maggots he accidentally ate, even though a side of his cheek was swollen as If he got stung by a swarm of bees.He hopped into his car and ordered his PA to drive, unbeknownst that he was being trailed by the black car behind him. ***Liam ran his hands through his hair and sighed. He was still at the hotel, yet to return to his home because he couldn't stand the horrible sight. He planned to not return until everything had been fixed and was intact. His men were already at work, with Sinclair being the mastermind of the whole Hunter's torment. He wanted to get at Hunter quickly but Sinclair suggested they take things slow, so Hunter wouldn't suspect a thing. Whilst Big Tony was ready to pin the man to the floor and crush his skull with his bare hands.Liam lost thirty-six cars in total, apart from his bodyguards who got beaten to a pulp. He was very certain he wou
Never in Hunter's life did he imagine to find himself in such a situation, he was in a bar, seated on one of those high stools opposite the bartender's tabletop. He was able to get himself a new pair of pants with the money he had, while the remaining was left for drinking.He kept cursing Liam under his breath as he drank straight from his beer bottle. He couldn't return to his home when dead pigs and their blood occupied everywhere and the sight kept tormenting the shit out of his senses. Sighing, he put the beer bottle on the bartender's tabletop. He couldn't call Charlotte to tell her what he was going through because he didn't want to bother her, but it was eating him up. Hunter slipped out his phone from his pocket, he had gone to fix the screen after damaging it because he had important contacts he couldn't let go of."More three bottles of beer," he told the bartender, who was surprisingly different from the first. This one was a younger male, in his late teens or early twent
The news of Charlotte and Hunter seeing each other spread through the whole city like wildfire, people were getting arrested for sharing the videos via the Internet and gluing the images on walls, but some didn't relent because the stuff was posted by Hunter Gail himself, at 3:55 AM in the morning. Even though claims were made that it was an AI-generated video, people knew they were trying to conceal the truth. Charlotte Price couldn't even get out of her room that morning, she just locked herself up and remained there, panicking, making hundreds of phone calls to have everything wiped off because her reputation was about getting dragged in the mud. Online, people called her a witch, a traitor for lying about Hunter being her brother when in fact, the two of them were involved in a secret affair.They even accused her of causing Brandon Price's untimely death because of her cheating and lies. Charlotte had never felt so humiliated before, it was too much for her to take. And the ki
