Chapter 10 10
Arthur left the banquet hall, blushing to the base of his neck as he walked away.
He didn't dare to disobey Shawn, continuing to stay here with a dead face would only make him more humiliated.
Only when he left did Shawn's face reveal a smile, he said cheerfully, “Everyone continue, everyone continue, this old man of mine will go next door first, I won't disturb your young people's exchanges, I'll come over later to announce something.”
Saying this, he looked at Liam who had already sat down again not far away and continued to eat, then walked out himself, Zoya was also a young man naturally stayed behind.
When he left, the banquet hall resumed its bustle, and Zoya was instantly surrounded by several young people.
Everyone began to talk about their own affairs, and of course, they would also talk about Arthur being defeated, as well as Liam!
Everyone seemed to have returned to normal, except for two people, of course.
Chloe's brows were slightly furrowed.
She had been watching from the sidelines, she wanted to see Liam make a fool of himself, but up until the beginning, Arthur was constantly exposing Liam's shortcomings, while Liam's expression had always been very much the same.
And before, whenever they humiliated Liam, Liam would always show a stifled or aggrieved look.
“Something is wrong!” Looking at Liam, who was sitting not far away, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
“What's wrong?” Ben looked at Chloe and said.
“Nothing?” Chloe shook her head.
Ben hemmed and hawed and said, “I've brought you to such a high-class place, so you'll just obey me at night.”
“ Chloe whimpered, "I'll take a few more pictures and send them to my friends, I guess those friends of mine are going to envy me to death, thank you, dear. Let's talk about the night matter at night!"
The other one who was still a bit abnormal was Zara.
She was still sitting next to Liam, looking at Liam who was already eating the third portion of food next to her, her heart became more and more curious.
“Really mysterious.” A hint of a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
“How long is this banquet going to last, it's also too boring, I'm full.” Liam said.
“After Lord comes to announce something, it should be over!” Zara leaned against the sofa and revealed a sweet smile and said, “Hey, this is the most relaxing banquet for me, then again, if there's such an entertainment next time, I'll ask you you'll still have to help out!”
Liam nodded his head and said, “No problem, there are good food and drinks, blood money!”
Between their conversation, the door of the banquet hall was pushed open once again, and Shawn walked into the banquet hall, and in his hand, he had an extra microphone.
“Everyone.” He opened his mouth and said, “All of you are the talents of Detroit's younger generation, and this time, I've gathered you all together, apart from giving you all a chance to communicate, I also have one more thing to announce.”
Everyone looked at him, he smiled slightly, his gaze fell on Zoya who was not far away and said, “That is my daughter Zoya's life matter!”
“What!” Everyone was stunned.
“My daughter is now 25, has been single has been single, I as a father, is to see in the eyes, anxious in the mind ah, so this party, there is another thing is to hope that if you like my daughter, bold chase ah, I will not intervene ... I ...” Shawn said before he could speak. "Shawn had not finished speaking!
A petite figure instantly passed through the crowd, instantly snatched the microphone over and said, “Dad...don't you talk nonsense!”
"Shy! Shy!" Shawn said cheerfully, “What I just said definitely counts...”
Zoya's pretty face instantly turned red.
Not far away, Liam was stunned, this was his own father!
“Hehe.” Zara covered her mouth and laughed softly and said, “This old man, life is very humorous, but don't look at this look inside his life, but when he is really ferocious, everyone is afraid, especially in business, decisive and ruthless, this is also the reason why just now Arthur is afraid of him.”
Liam laughed, after this farce, this party is also near the end, slowly began to people leave.
When a small half of them had left, Zara also followed and stood up, “Let's go too!”
When they reached the door, Zara gave Shawn a greeting, and Shawn looked at Liam, then pursed his lips and did not speak.
The two of them left the banquet hall smoothly, and when they arrived at the entrance of the hotel, Zara said with a smile, “Where are you going, I'll drive you.”
“You go first, I still have some things to do myself, just take a taxi.” Liam said.
Zara didn't ask much, nodded and said, “Okay, thank you for today, if there is any need, just give me a call.”
Liam nodded his head and waited until Zara left, Liam reached the entrance of the hotel, intending to take a taxi to leave, at this time, a middle-aged man quickly chased after him and said, “Mr. Martin.”
The person who came was a middle-aged man in a suit, he introduced himself and said, “I am the secretary of Shawn, this is business card, Shawn asked me to instruct you that no matter what, you must give him a call.”
Liam calmly took the business card, nodded his head and said, “Okay, I know.”
Then he stopped a cab and got into it.
He didn't go back to the Garden District directly, but rushed towards Lance's house.
He had some things that were still at Lance's place.
The most important one was naturally that iron box!
Three years ago, for the sake of this iron box, three of the top ten Vigilants almost fell, including him, the former Zero.
As for what was inside the iron box, in fact, he was not clear, when he was just given the task, did not tell him what it was.
Half an hour later, at nine o'clock in the evening, Liam smoothly arrived at Lance's house.
Standing at the door, Liam realized that the door was actually open, and above the stairwell, Lance's voice was coming over saying, “Hey, Brother, are you still short of people on your side?”
“Not short of people ah, then bother ah, if you guys are short of people give me a call, well, I'm idle now, no work to do.” Lance made a phone call.
Apparently, he was calling for a job, the reason why he chose to be outside was probably because he didn't want to be heard by his son, Jack.
Liam walked up and found that above the corridor, there was a field of cigarette butts!
Lance, a real simple migrant laborer, he didn't have such an identity shift as Liam.
Losing that job was equivalent to losing his livelihood as far as he was concerned.
He didn't even have the immense strength that Liam had, and for the sake of his son Jack's chemotherapy expenses, he had almost fought with all his might.
Seeing Liam, Lance dropped the cigarette in his hand and stomped it out before saying, "I thought you wouldn't come back today. I called and asked several construction sites, none of them are short of people, if I can't find any more work to do, the cost of Jack's chemotherapy next month..."
Liam smiled slightly and said, “I have a job, do you want to try with me tomorrow?”
“Huh?” Lance's eyes lit up and said, “Which construction site?”
“Not a construction site, it's Sia Company.” Liam said.
“That logistics company?” Lance's complexion slightly moved and said, “But you have to run everywhere to do logistics, right? If I leave, there will be no one to take care of Jack...”
“No need for you to run.” Liam said.
"Strength work? Unloading goods and such? What's the pay?" Lance asked in a hurry.
"It's not a laborious job, tomorrow morning at nine o'clock we will meet at the entrance of their company. As for the wages, if you are not satisfied, you can just not do it." Liam said with a smile.
Lance hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, “That's fine, anyway, I can't find a job for the time being, so it's not bad to go and bang your luck, but then again, how do you know the people in their company.”
“Coincidence, I guess.” Liam said with a smile.
He knew that if he told the truth, Lance would definitely not believe it either!
Lance did not ask more questions, with this news from Liam, he seemed to be in a much better mood, he tilted his head to look at Liam and said, “Still sleeping here with me at night?”
“No, I found a place to stay and came over to pick up my things.” Liam said with a smile.
“Okay, then let's go in and get it, keep your voice down later, Jack is still doing his homework, don't disturb him.” Lance said.
Liam nodded his head.
After picking up the stuff, Liam went back to the residence of Freya and Nora in the garden district, when he went back, the two of them were not there, apparently they went out.
Vigilantes Vigilantes, naturally they have to guard the peace at night!
At eight o'clock the next morning, Liam left the door early, and at eight thirty, he arrived at the entrance of Sia Company.
When he arrived at the door, a black sedan just stopped, Mitchell walked down from it, seeing Liam he waved his hand and said, “Mr. Martin, so early ah!”
“Today over a little something to come over a trip, usually I would not come, the company to your management, I am still quite assured.” Liam said, “Go up together, it just so happens that I have something I want to say to you!”
What he said, naturally, was the matter of arranging Lance to work over here.
After saying that, Mitchell nodded and said, “Don't worry, I'll arrange it, what about the salary?”
“One million a year!” Liam calmly said, “No matter what position, give him this price, of course, you can let him keep it a secret.”
Mitchell nodded his head, he thought for a moment then said, “Right, I'm afraid you have to take a picture and put it on the wall of the company today, or let the people in the company know that you are the boss, otherwise it would be embarrassing if you can't enter the door of your own company the next time you come over.”
Liam faintly smiled and said, “OK!”
Taking advantage of this point in time, Mitchell hired someone to take pictures of Liam.
At nine o'clock, Liam's cell phone rang, it was Lance who called, he picked up and droned a couple of sentences, then ran towards the downstairs!
When he arrived at the door, Lance was standing over there, somewhat nervously looking in.
The security guard was naturally changed, and he also saw Mitchell personally bring Liam in, and didn't block him too much!
“Come in!” When he reached the door, Liam waved his hand at Lance.
“Liam?” At this time, at the doorway, a pretty female ran over, she swiped her card at the doorway and looked at Liam, a look of disgust on her face.
Yes, the person who came was none other than Maria.
"What are you still doing here? Haven't you already been expelled?" Saying that, she glared again and said.
“The person who fired me was fired and I was recruited back.” Liam said with a smile.
"Hmph, being a security guard and still so smug, can you earn 5000 a month? Rubbish for being a security guard." Maria scolded.
Inside the security booth, the security guard who was guarding the door wanted to curse!
"Did you read my sister's circle of friends yesterday? Ben took him to the party of the top tycoons in Detroit, at the Marriott Hotel, with all that food, you probably can't afford to go there even once with a month's salary." Maria looked at Liam and said disdainfully, "Of course, my sister probably deleted your Whatsapp a long time ago. You definitely don't know!"
Liam looked at her and had some good laugh in his heart.
"Hurry up and get out of the way, it's bad luck to see you, when I ran into you the day before yesterday, my car fell, when I ran into you yesterday, my boss was fired, causing me to not be able to sleep more in the morning, you're just a broomstick, the likes of you deserve to be abandoned by my sister. Look at her life now, I'm envious!" Maria said, pushed Liam away and walked in towards the building.
Looking at her back, Liam lightly laughed in his heart, “You're probably quite unlucky today, especially when you saw that my picture appeared in the column of the boss.”
