Miranda had just remembered that Liam had stayed past his lunch break.

A while later, Liam came back with two security guards. He had given them some tips beforehand and told them the nature of the things they'd be carrying.

Without asking any questions, the men swept into action and helped the couple carry the things they bought.

Liam also assisted and carried the things he could, and so did Miranda. When they got out, a cab was already waiting outside for them.

The men packed up everything in the car and Miranda brought some money to give to them but they declined.

“Keep your money, Ma'am. Your husband has just tipped us handsomely.”

Without another word, the men left the couple and hurried back to their duty posts. However, Miranda stood speechless and gaped at her husband.

Her hands were still stretched out.

The cab driver got impatient and pressed the horn hard.

“Come on, guys. I haven't gotten all the time to waste. If you're not ready to leave, then take your things off my cab.

    Piper turned around and walked back to meet up with the man. “I didn't forget about that." She sighed and took out her phone from her leather handbag.She tapped on a few buttons and the man's phone beeped. It was an alert of the money she had sent.Since she had earlier done a transaction with the number, it was still saved in her phone.“Thank you Ma'am, I just got my money. It's nice doing business with you. Don't forget to call me next time you have any other job." The man said to her before walking away.His business with her was done and there's nothing else he'd be doing there.He was open to any job but not the very dirty ones that'll put him behind bars.As he walked away, Piper followed behind him but remembered something so she called out to him.The man who was about to get into his car had to pause.“Yes, Ma'am."

    Miranda was completely speechless as she gaped at the lady before her. “Don't listen to her, honey." Liam reached out and held Miranda's hands while shaking his head.“That's the truth, pretty lady. Your husband or whoever he is to you, will suck you dry. He will drag you down to his level and leave you with nothing." Neo added and further infuriated Liam.At that moment, he had lost his appetite and so did Miranda lose hers.Angrily, Liam stood up from his chair and hit Neo on the chest.“Look Neo, I've taken too much from you. If you don't mind your business now, I'll surely deal with you." Because of the chaos their disagreement had caused, they had brought attention to themselves.Neo had angrily slapped Liam back on the face. When he tried to fight back, Miranda quickly held him back.“It's not worth it. You don't have to bring yourself to their level. They're obviously troublemakers." Miranda could now see the reason Liam minded his business. He didn't want to talk to Neo be

Her heart was pounding chaotically at the sight of the dreadful old Lady before them.The couple soon walked up to them and greeted them.“Lady Mary, Mum, Dad." Piper was irrelevant to them so there was no need acknowledging her presence.Without a word, Lady Mary stoo

    “Indeed." Allison scoffed and walked up to Liam, standing before his face.After Aura Cosmetics rejected her, she hasn't gotten a single deal. Not even a small one.“Piper just dared you to call the military so what are you waiting for? Go on and call the military.”Without a word, Liam took out his phone to dial a number but Piper snatched the phone from his hand.“What do you think you're doing? You think that the police will come running here because you called. For your information, you're nobody and no one will listen to you.”Liam snatched back his phone and wanted to shove her away but restrained himself.He rushed towards Miranda to inquire about her.“Honey, are you ok? Did they harm you?" Miranda nodded her head. “Piper slapped me and when I wanted to retaliate, they teamed up against me and were about to beat me up. If you didn't come just on time, they would have actualized their plan.“Aww! Such a sweet couple. She's reporting us to her darling husband." Allison spoke wi

    "Yes, Boss.” They replied but Liam still kept a straight face as he continued to dish out instructions."You're going to make sure that my wife is always safe at all times. If you see anyone trying to cause trouble, you know what to do.”"Yes, Boss.”"Now, get to work, all of you.”As the men dispersed, Liam turned around and began to walk back to the office. He heard a familiar voice but didn't turn around.It was his troublesome mother-in-law. She had followed him to the place but missed her way. Fortunately, she passed by that route and saw Piper driving away in a hurry. When she turned to look at the place they were coming out from, she saw Liam talking to some hefty men.At first, Patricia was confused and was a little terrified.

    The place fell silent for a while before Liam sighed deeply and drew closer to stare at his wife's face for a while.“Since you want to know how I did it, I'll tell you." “Well, I'm listening, so hit the nail on the head. You know that I'm very busy right now." Miranda snapped at him.“Ok, I only snapped my fingers and they appeared before me. That's just it, I didn't do much." Liam joked as he demonstrated the action and saw the disappointed look on Miranda's face.“You've got to be kidding me." Miranda shook her head a few times. "Be serious, Liam.” Miranda glared at him and he decided to stop fooling around."I called the owner of this renting space and told him about our current situation. He promised to do something about it.”"We were still standing outside when those men showed up before us and told me who sent them." “Really?" Miranda seemed to have believed him.“Yeah, that's just it. You needed to see how your cousins fled for their lives when they saw the hefty mean look

If I knew that you didn't have any money, I wouldn't have carried you in my cab." Without a word, Liam stared at the man for a while before commenting. "I'm so sorry about that.

You're a gangster who dupes people of their hard earned money. You're not an honorable person.”Liam stared at the others who were still wincing in pain on the ground.He had beaten them up so badly that it'd be hard for them to stand up and fight him again.He returned his gaze back to Korra and said to her."I'll be back for you guys.” He stood up and began to walk away.

    “Damn, Stranger. You must be really hungry to eat like that.” Slim tried to interrupt Liam who did not pay heed to him.“Slow down, ok, so you don't choke. You must know that we have a lot to do today and no one is going to take you to the hospital if you choke.”Liam turned to stare briefly at him before turning to drink some water.He was the first person to finish eating and quickly stood up.Liam went to the sitting room and sat down on one of the Sofas.He had observed the whole place and seen that the doors were locked. It was to prevent him from running away.Liam lowered his head while deep in his thoughts. However, he was jolted awake by a loud tap on his shoulder.“It's time." Slim said to him.“Come with me, we've set up one of the rooms which will serve as our office from now henceforth.”Slim led the way while Liam followed.

    “Shut that mouth of yours." Slim barked angrily with bloodshot eyes.“You don't make the rules so you have no right to tell us what's right and wrong.”With furrowed brows, Parker added. “And who cares about their feelings? Do we look like people who give their two cents about our victims?" Liam swallowed hard but said nothing. Things were really getting out of hand and he had no idea what to do about it.The situation was getting serious.After a moment of silence, Slim walked towards Liam and patted him on the back before commenting.“Look, Stranger. Don't worry yourself about what we do or about our victims. I'm sure that they'll be fine, so relax.”"In fact, I think I know what you need right now." Slim went over to the bar and brought out a bottle of whiskey and four glasses.

    "Hacking skill.” Liam muttered to himself. He gave each of them a quick glance before shaking his head in disagreement.“You must be mistaken. I don't have any hacking skills.”"Of course, you do. You've just proven it by opening this email account. Something that I've been trying to do for some time now, it's always been unsuccessful.”At that moment, Korra stood up from the chair and said to them,"I have to go and fix dinner. You guys get on with it.”.While Korra left the table, Liam's eyes followed her. He wished he could follow her so she could explain everything to him.At that moment, he was confused and he believed that Korra was the one to answer his questions.He only asked them to look for a job for him and they were asking him to do what he didn't understand.“We're waiting to hear from you Mr. Stranger."
