At the president's office of Fusion Fortune Holdings.
Liam ended the call and threw his phone aside. His amorous eyes narrowed and darted around as he rubbed his chin, looking like he was thinking of something.
Sitting on the sofa, a man who was smoking a cigar said in a hoarse voice, "Is this your idea? Get close to Stanley's woman, and then make a move on him?"
Leaning on the chair without moving, Liam swept his glance at the man and said flatly, "Harvey Wells, you are just my business partner. My personal affairs have nothing to do with you."
There was a hint of warning in his words.
Harvey smiled and raised a hand. "OK, I won't ask about your plan, but if you need any help, you can come to me at any time. You know that you and I are of one mind about Stanley, so I will try my best to help you anywhere I can."
Liam frowned and said nothing.
At this time, someone knocked on the door.
"Young Master Frazier."
It was William Carney's voice.
"Come in."
Liam got up, turned around to the bar, and poured a glass of wine.
When the door opened, William came in and respectfully stopped in front of Liam. "Young Master Frazier, we've found him."
"Bring him in."
"Okay." William turned around and shouted to the outside, "Bring him in."
Two bodyguards emerged at the door, dragging a bloodied man in between them. The man's face was so swollen that it was hard to tell what he looked like.
Harvey got up and said, "Since you have a personal matter to attend to, I won't be in your way. Excuse me."
Liam nodded and Harvey left.
William dragged the man to the corner of the office so as not to stain the expensive carpet with his blood.
Squinting his bewitching eyes, Liam walked over with a glass of wine in his hand and squatted down in front of the man. The bright red liquid stained his lips, revealing a bit of devilishness.
Without saying a word, he tilted the glass in his hand and the wine poured on the man who was covered with blood.
"Argh..."
The man on the ground screamed in agony as the alcohol stung his wounds.
Liam slowly poured the wine onto the man until the glass was empty. Looking at the man lying on the ground twitching in pain, he stretched out his hand and William immediately took the glass from him.
"Do you still remember me?"
Liam smiled and asked.
The man on the floor raised his swollen face weakly and looked at him. When he finally saw the smiling man in front of him, his whole body trembled. "You... it's you!"
The bloodied man was the thief from the other day.
Seeing the shock and fear in the thief's eyes, Liam smiled. "You have a good memory. No one dares to point a knife at me, and no one dares to hurt me. You are the first one, so of course, you need to pay a price, don't you think so?"
After that, he got up. The smile on his face disappeared, and he was expressionless like a Grim Reaper. "William, go and break his limbs."
Horrified, the thief threw himself forward, hugging Liam's leg while shouting, "I'm sorry! Don't kill me... Please don't kill me!"
Irritated, Liam frowned at the thief who had stained his trousers and kicked him away.
"You take care of the rest!"
"Yes, sir!"
William signaled at the two bodyguards with his eyes, and they dragged the thief who was crying and howling out of the room.
Liam went straight to the large French windows, overlooking the pedestrians as dense as ants under the tall buildings.
He fixed his eyes on a certain point, and a smile slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth, spurting a name, "Sharon Cruz."
Then he said lightly, "William, I want you to do something..."
It was Sharon's first time to come to an entertainment media company. Everything was so new and vivid to her. She saw the pictures of a lot of popular celebrities on the wall of the company.
Among them was a male star who was Melody's idol. She secretly took a few pictures of the male star's photo, thinking about sending them to Melody later to make her happy.
