Liamâs face turned grim. Just as he was about to speak, someone pulled open the door to the back seat. Before he could react, he was yanked out of the car.
âYou...â
The moment he spoke, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck. Soon, everything went black, and he fainted.
His two men were not up for a fight. They just grabbed the safe in the car and rode off on their motorcycles.
By the time the driver thought to call the police, their attacker had disappeared from sight.
Liam jolted awake when someone splashed a basin of cold water on him. When he opened his eyes and saw Kane standing before him, he began to panic.
âK-Kaneâ
Kane looked at him with dissatisfaction like he was looking at a dead man.
âWhereâs the secret key?â
Liamâs heart sank, and he quickly explained, âI-I donât know. I met with a car accident on my way here. Then... Then I was knocked out. I donât know what happened after that...â
âTrash!â
Kaneâs eyes were filled with anger. Had he known that Liam was so useless, he would have sent someone to fetch the secret key.
Right then, one of his henchmen walked up to him and cautiously said, âKane, the two individuals who stole the secret key abandoned their car in a section with no surveillance. Theyâve fled, and we havenât found them yet.â
The news clearly put Kane in a bad mood.
âKeep looking. We need to get it back!â
âGot it! What about Liam?â
When the henchman mentioned his name, Liam trembled and hurriedly begged for forgiveness. âKane, I really didnât do it on purpose. Let me go back, and Iâll find the secret key... I promise I wonât make the same mistake again!â
Kane gave him a cold look. There was no warmth in his voice. âThere were less than two hours between the moment you found out where the secret key was and the time you got it. An outsider could not have caught wind of it so quickly. Thereâs a mole in your midst.â
Noticing Kaneâs increasingly cold gaze, Liam quickly said, âKane, if you give me another chance, Iâll definitely uncover the mole as soon as possible!â
âOne week. If you donât find out who the mole is, Iâll make you wish I killed you instead!â
Kane left right after that.
Liam could finally relax once he was alone again.
He gritted his teeth. Once he caught the people who stole the secret key, he would make their lives worse than death!
Meanwhile, Neil and his men barged into Liamâs mansion. They found Melanie looking pale and seemingly in shock. A piece of Adaâs clothing was covering her, and she appeared pitiful.
Realizing what had happened to Melanie, Neil stood at the basement door. He clenched his fists and looked like he could kill someone.
Ada dared not approach him. She stood a few steps away and carefully opened her mouth. âNeil... After Liam left, I found someone to stop them...
Aunt Melanieâs just in shock. She didnât suffer any real injuries...â
Ada then asked a few servants to send Melanie and Abalene to the hospital. Seeing that Neil was not leaving, she hurried back to her bedroom and locked the door. She was too afraid to go out.
Neil was terrifying, and his gaze was so fierce that it could pierce a personâs soul. Therefore, Ada dared not go near him.
Downstairs, Neilâs men had arrested the two men who had locked Melanie in the basement and tried to defile her.
âMr. Remus, what about these two?â
Neil looked ruthless as he stressed each word, âMake sure theyâre an inch away from death.â
âAlright.â
Neil sat in Liamâs mansion until the evening. The moment Liam walked in, his expression became unpleasant.
âWhy are you here?â
Mr. Remus, Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce ï¤Chapter 505 Watch Out, CEO Daddy!
ï¤Chapter 20 The Ugly Lady Strikes Back ï¤Chapter 2514 Neil raised his eyes to look at him. One glance was all it took for Liam to see the murderous look in his eyes. His entire body trembled, and he subconsciously turned to run outside.
Before he could get too far, Neilâs men brought him back.
Liam was stressed, and he felt a wave of fear in his heart when he met Neilâs intense eyes.
âNeil, youââ
Before the words could escape his mouth, he felt a knife in his most vulnerable spot.
His miserable screams resounded throughout the mansion, and he bent over in pain. He wished that he was dead.
On top of the physical pain, the humiliation in his heart was worse than death.
