The phoenix: Rise of Liam Black

Liam walked out of the hospital almost lifeless, he looked up at the busy street, everybody was going about with their business, what was he going to do? Where would he find the money? Would he failed his mother like this?He continued to walk on the curb, as different thoughts occupied his mind, howeverLiam's phone rang, jolting him out of his thoughts. He didn't want to pick it at first, because it was an unknown number, but he eventually answered the phone."Hello""Mr. Black, I'm Johnson, Your mother, Sandra Black's lawyer, I know you might have questions and that's why I'm calling."Liam's glanced at his phone again, it must be one of those scammer calls, because there's no way his mother had a lawyer. Even if she were to have one, it definitely wouldn't be Johnson.Clearly not interested he was just about to hang up the call but Wait a minute how did the person knew his mother's name? also how did he knew his first name was Black? so he asked, "How do you know my mother's name?

Liam face twisted with distaste as soon as he saw this man. He picked up the document given to him by Mr Johnson and meant to walk away, but the angry Vex Sam pulled him back and said with a sneer, "Where do you think you're going disgusting thief!" Liam felt really angry, but he managed to released Vex Sam grip on his shirt and said coldly, "What thing of yours have I stole? I knocked down your briefcase and I apologize, and now you're holding me back?" Vex Sam face darkened as soon as he heard Liam words. Vex Sam's face twisted in contempt. "You're a thief, a lowly web developer who went stealing things about, and you still dare to talk to me?"Liam's expression remained calm, but his eyes flashed with annoyance. He didn't want a scene, especially not with someone like Vex Sam, who clearly enjoyed belittling others.Seeing Liam didn't say a thing, Vex Sam become more infuriated that he said, "What? You deaf now or something?"Truthfully, while working at the Tech Company, a situa

Liam walked into Citybank. He approached the receptionist, who gaze up to look at him with a mixture of disinterest and annoyance. "Can I help you?" she asked, her tone implying that she'd rather not. This man doesn't look like the type who would come here, his clothes spells a lot."I'm here to see the manager," Liam replied, his voice was gentle and straightforward.The receptionist raised an eyebrow. "I'm afraid the manager is in a meeting. And It may take a while."Liam nodded and took a seat. She seemed to expect him to leave, but he remained seated.Twenty minutes passed before the receptionist finally got up and knocked on the manager's door. She entered,Thompson was working on some paperwork in his office, so the moment Emily entered, she bowed and started taking."Sir, there's a man who wants to see you," she said, her voice was low and hesitant.The manager, Mr. Thompson, looked up from his papers, his expression skeptical. "What does he want?"The receptionist hesitated.

The men took another step closer to Liam, their fists still clenched. But Thompson stood his ground, "I said you're not going to touch him," he repeated.John Black replied him with a sneer, "Or what, Thompson? You'll call security? Please, do. I'd love to see you try."John Black's face turned red with rage, but Thompson didn't back down. "I mean it, John, none of you can touch Mr. Black unless you're looking for trouble."John took a step forward and said "Get out of the way! Or do you want to share his beating?"Thompson stood his ground, his eyes locked onto John Black's. "I'm not afraid of you," Liam didn't understand what this man want, they came for their different businesses, just why won't he back down? Liam was starting to get annoyed at this instance, so he won't allow Thompson to defend him while he stood cowardly at the back, so he stepped forward and said, "Do not cross the line, I have nothing to do with you"But John Black's face twisted in a snarl. "We'll see about t

Johnson smiled and replied, "I don't think Mut is a very good word ma'am." Margaret gaze hardened as her fist tightened against the chair, clearly offended she chirped coldly, "And what words do you think would be befitting enough Mr Johnson? A beggar? Worthless idiot? Vagabond?" Liam also frowned at those remarks, he wasn't the type to get annoyed easily, but this woman's words were going too far, but all in all, he trusted Johnson and he believes he will have it done. "Those aren't any nicer too." Johnson replied smiling even broadly, as a lawyer, Johnson had delt with a lot of people so he definitely knew how to deal with people like Margaret. Margaret fumed more as her face twisted with distaste as if she ate vinegar, but in the end she could only bit her lips to suppress her retort, to keep her image mattered at this instance, so she only glared at Johnson. Ahem- Johnson cleared his throat and turned to James who seemed to be the eldest of the group, "As I've previously
