There was a stunned silence in the store the moment they saw Charles laying face flat on the floor and begging for forgiveness."I was wrong, please forgive me." Fred glared at him, he didn't want to judge Charles, therefore he turned to Liam and asked, "What will you have me do to him sir?" "To that I'd say, you can deal with him however you want, it's none of my business."Charles eyes were filled with fear as he crawled to Liam's side, banging his head on the floor and pleading, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry please have mercy, forgive me.." Fred eyes turned dark as he balled his fist and viciously kicked him back. "You still dare move closer to him huh? do you want to die?" Jean eyes widened with both fear and confusion, she held her slapped cheek sobbing quietly, but not even Charles or Natalie whom she was trying to protect were able to see her. Because Fred's balled fist had already punched Charles face thrice, making him to spit out blood, however he was desperately still p
At the Black's minor family. "Mother are you okay?" Rachel asked as she supported Gloria who seemed shaken by her husband reaction. "Mother.." she tried to touch her shoulder, all while being casual as she did so. "Hands off.." Gloria hissed and push Rachel hands away from her body. "Out... Get out now, out!" She yelled loudly at Rachel and even pushed her out of the door, after that she slumped on the bed and angrily hissed into her pillow. Rachel crashed onto the cold floor as she winced slightly, her left cheek stung, her father's palm did a really brutal job bursting the side of her lips, the tears streamed down her face as she gathered herself up, hiccupping as she did so. Liam who had just arrived stood at the door and watched her stood up, he couldn't bare to look at her like that so he walked closer, he didn't ask her any question as he steady her by holding her shoulder and took her back to the room, he went to get an ice pack from the maid in the kitchen and help h
Gloria usually bragged among her friends that her daughter is going to be married to a wealthy man, but that old witch Elena had tossed the pig leftover cabbage to her daughter and turned her into an object of ridicule.She had thought she would get this over with as soon as possible, but with Carolina's interference, her teeths gnashed together, but she still pressed back her rage and smiled through it, "What nonsense are you saying Carolina? My son in law is just keeping everything private and I'd like it to remain like that." But Carolina was far from giving up as she sneered, and replied with a smile, "It couldn't be that you're afraid of something? If that street dog up there on the alter is so remarkable, then why are you objecting the checking of ring?""You!""I told you he was nothing but a stray dog who was sheltered by the Black's family!" Gloria's friend also found it strange, Layla knew Gloria would've gloat of her son in law if he was really wealthy and would by no re
Carolina hadn't expected Liam to consent to checking the ring, when obviously it was fake, but his consent only make things more exciting.She was so sure that Liam is gloating, and begging for forgiveness is something that wouldn't happen, she was very certain that this ring would at most cost few hundreds dollars, therefore she smiled arrogantly and declared, "Begging is just a little thing, to show everyone here how sure I am, if this ring was checked and it turned out to be a real deal, then I'm going to lick his shoes and beg Aunty for saying untrue words. But if it turned out to be fake, I want Rachel and Liam to lick this floor clean!" Layla's eyes widened, now it was clear that Carolina was saying nothing but the truth, and she couldn't wait to see Gloria face rubbed with mud and dirt as she quickly said, "I will get the person who will check the ring, just give me a few minutes." Then she hurriedly walked away."Do you know you can still take your words back? I'm sure that
Fred recognized the ring, it was the same one he sold to that distinguish Mr Liam the other day, he saw it clearly, and the ring also carried the mark of their store, so he was sure it's the same thing. When he had entered into the hall, he hadn't actually see Liam due to how crowded the place was, so he thought the ring was stolen from Liam.He was ready to flip this whole place upside down so as to get on the good side of Liam, what he knew so far was this ring was stolen! And he was not going to take it easy with whomever the thief was. "Mr will, why do you ask this question?" Carolina asked as she thought was Fred disgusted by the quality of ring to the extent of wanting to beat Liam to death! Thus she smiled sweetly and jumped out, "This ring belonged to her! " She pointed to Rachel and tried to pull her out.Fred eyes went to the direction and his gaze happened to met Liam's who was calmly standing there, beside the beautiful lady. Could t
Liam trudged down the street, his heart was heavy with worry. He was on his way to the hospital to pay his mother's medical bills, he had juggled different jobs these past weeks, not limited from errand boys, bartender in a bar, delivery boy and so much more, he had managed to gathered this amount and he is rushing to the hospital to deposit this so they can begin treatment on his mother.As he turned the corner, he spotted some people across the street, Ryan, Jake, and Alex standing by the wall, they were holding a cigarette by the alleyway.Liam tried to turned back to avoid them seeing him, but Alex had already saw him. "Well, well, well, look what we got here." Alex sneered, calling the attention of Jake and Ryan.Jake, the most vulgar of the three, catcalled, "You little punk, do you think you can run away from us?"Alex, kill his cigarette fire with his hands, walking towards Liam he said, "You're a week late, and I know you're aware of what happens when you're late."Yeah, they
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?
Hilton corporate was one of the largest top corporate that expanded their business all over the world. So hearing a distance uncle left him such huge inheritance, Liam was so surprised that he was still in a daze. Johnson leaned back in his chair, steepling his fingers together as he began to explain the details of the proposal to Liam."So, as I was saying, the bonuses for heading the Hilton corporations are quite...substantial," Johnson said. Liam raised an eyebrow, he was intrigued despite himself not showing it, but he wasn't very good at hiding it either, "Go on," he said.Johnson leaned forward, his hands gesturing expansively. "Well, first, there's the car. A brand-new, limited-edition Lamborghini Sián. One of only 63 in the world, and it's all yours."Liam's eyes widened slightly, impressed despite his efforts to remain nonchalant. Even though he doesn't really care about the rest, all that mattered to him was to save his mother.Johnson continued, "And then, of course, the
