Liam Danvers, was always looked down on and treated badly by his in-laws and everyone around him, including his wife, all because he was broke. Everyone treated him like trash, like he didn't have emotions, and sometimes his in-laws would beat him up. One day Liam's in-laws beat him up and left him for dead on the streets. Just when Liam thought everything was lost, and he was going to die, a couple introduced themselves as his parents.
View MoreErin was slightly offended by Liam's tone when he answered her. Although he wasn't rude and simply told her to mind her own business politely: His tone still got on her nerves, because he didn't sound friendly, his tone was rather devoid of any emotion as he spoke to her. To say the least, she felt like she was trying to be friendly towards him, while he wasn't. To her it felt like he still held a grudge against her over how things went between them, when they were married.However, in truth, Liam no longer harbored any lingering resentment towards Erin or her family. Although they had made his life a living hell, he didn't see any point in holding a grudge against them. However, his past experiences had taught him to remain cautious around her due to her unpredictable nature. And so, his response was more a reflexive defense mechanism rather than a personal grudge. Plus, the fact that she and his mom were very close didn't sit well with him. Erin was the last person he would want
As Liam sat at the dining table, he couldn't help feeling bad, knowing that he had inadvertently caused Karen pain. Despite the unintentional nature of his actions, the damage was done, and he couldn't shake the guilt that gnawed at him.Would Karen ever find it in her heart to forgive him? Or was this the breaking point, the final straw that would finally, irreparably end their relationship? Liam couldn't help but wonder, his mind consumed by a whirlwind of doubt and uncertainty.Throughout the entire time he was seated next to Karen on the dining table, Karen didn't even look at him or talk to him.As much as Karen tried, she just couldn't help being mad at Liam. He told her that what happened with Elena was a mistake, and it also happened way before they started dating, and she believed him. She trusted Liam and she knew he wasn't the type of person who would cheat on her. However, the knowledge that he was expecting a child with another woman bothered her, it made Karen's heart h
After spending some time chatting with Dick, Liam eventually bid him farewell and left the restaurant, his thoughts lingering on the intriguing business proposal presented by Mr. Edwards, thinking about all the possibilities the partnerships could bring. Only if he knew that he was getting himself involved in a dangerous situation.But in that moment, Liam didn't suspect a thing. With Dick Chamberlain, a trusted friend, introducing him to Mr. Edwards, Liam didn't even consider the need for a background check on the man. If Dick Chamberlain trusted him, then surely he must be a trustworthy person.Getting outside the restaurant, Liam got inside his Bugatti Chiron. As he settled into his seat, he let out an audible sigh, his mind immediately drifting to Karen. The memories immediately came back, and started thinking of earlier when he told her about him and Elena expecting a child together, and she got mad at him and stormed off. Liam hadn't heard from Karen from then, he even tried to
Unaware that Mr Edwards wasn't really a business man, but someone who was working for his enemies, Liam was very impressed with the business idea. He was even considering becoming an investor in the alleged new company. He felt like he had to invest in it, as he could tell that the project had so much potential, and in the end he could make billions out of itHowever, Liam had no idea that all this was not real. He was about to be entangled in a scheme designed to destroy his family's business empire. The Simpsons and Elena conspired to manipulate him through Mr. Edwards. Mr Reginad Simpson was the one who had come up with the plan of course. And he had entrusted Elena and his son to execute it.They planned to trick Liam into investing and publicly endorsing Mr. Edwards' business venture, a sham from the ground up. They planned to make him the face of the company, and make sure he promoted it, with his reputation and influence. However Liam wouldn't know that, all this time he had
This was what he had been trying to avoid, when he didn't want to tell her, he knew that there was a chance that she wouldn't understand or believe him. And he was right for thinking that. But he couldn't blame Karen for her reaction, finding out that her boyfriend was expecting a baby with someone else was not something to be taken lightly, and Liam understood her reaction. He just hoped that soon she will calm down and talk to him. Letting out a sigh, Liam turned his attention to the waiter, and called him over. Taking out his bank card he handed it over to the waiter, who swiped it. After the beep that indicated that the transaction had went through, the waiter handed the card back to Liam. Standing up, Liam made his way out of the restaurant. Getting outside he got in his car, leaning back as he let out a sigh. He then reached for his phone thinking of calling Karen, but he stopped himself, realizing that he had to give her some space. Liam started the car and drove off.A about
“What's going on?” Karen asked, as she met Liam's gaze, waiting for him to start talking. She couldn't help feeling slightly nervous as she wondered what he might say, and how serious it was. Seeing as his demeanor had drastically changed the moment he asked her to talk about whatever it was he wanted to talk about, it was clear to Karen that it was very important.“Is something bothering you?” She asked again, urging him to talk to her.Liam let out a sigh, still holding her hand. Looking into her eyes, he began telling her. “I'm going to be a father.” He said. He didn't continue, instead he paused and just watched her reaction, feeling slightly uneasy to go on, because he didn't know what her reaction was going to be once she hears it all.Karen raised her eyebrows, perplexed by his statement. He was going to be a father? What did he mean by that? She was his girlfriend and she sure as hell wasn't pregnant, so it didn't make sense to her, what Liam said. “Uh, what?” She asked, scann
After Mr. Hastings presented the ring to the mysterious figures, a heavy silence enveloped the chamber. Finally after a brief pause, the figure seated in the middle, on a throne-like chair,rose to his feet. The figure's face was concealed by the darkness and cloak. With piercing intensity, he scrutinized the ring in Mr. Hastings' hands. It was evident, judging by his authoritative aura, that the figure was the head of the council, known as the Supreme Master.As the Supreme Master took his gaze away from the ring, he turned his attention towards the entrance, where two cloaked figures stood guard. And then with a silent command, the Supreme Master signaled to the guards.Following the silent command from the head of the council, one of the cloaked figures approached Mr. Hastings, who handed over the ring to him with a sincere expression. Mr Hastings watched as the cloaked guard approached the supreme master and handed the ring to him. With a respectful bow, the guard turned around and
Upon realizing the caller was Karen, Liam swiftly answered his phone, eager to hear her voice. As they talked on the phone, she reminded him of their lunch plans. The reminder made Liam both excited and worried at the same time. He was happy to be able to spend some time with her after she had been very busy for the last few days, but at the same time he couldn't help feeling nervous, knowing that he was hiding a very big secret from her, a secret that could end their relationship.After ending the call, Liam returned his cellphone to his pocket, running his hand through his hair as he exhaled audibly. A sense of nervousness creeping in, as he anticipated what was ahead, ate at him. He contemplated lunch with Karen. He had been harboring the secret of expecting a child with Elena for some time now, and the guilt of it pressed heavily on him. He knew he had to tell Karen about it, the sooner the better. He couldn't keep it from her anymore, risking her finding out on her own, that wou
Upon finding what she was looking for, the maid had a relieved expression across her face. She quickly tucked the ring away, murmuring. “Okay, now, let's fix this mess.” She immediately got back to rearranging everything back in its place.Minutes later the maid came out of Liam's room, purposely walking down the hallway. As the maid stepped outside the manor, into the garden, she let out an audible sigh, clutching her chest as she felt even more relieved that she had successfully gotten the ring from Liam's room without getting caught. However, her relief was short-lived as she continued walking and spotted a figure waiting for her in the distance, a sense of unease creeping at the back of her mind.A frown crept across her face, as she approached the man. Her steps slowed, her heart pounding with nervous anticipation. Getting closer, she could feel his eyes on her, sending a shiver down her spine. Meeting his gaze, she finally spoke up. "I have what you asked for, sir," she addres
