Chapter 1176

Liam held onto his chest after being kicked. With his face twisted in pain, he seemed to show remorse. “I’m sorry… I… I didn’t know you…”

He really didn’t know that the ‘Night Demon’ would have looked this terrifying under his mask.

Seeing this showed just how ruthless Stefan used to be. This grudge between the two families would never heal unless Renee somehow wished … to give up on her twin brother.

“Good skills, kid.” Quinton soon regained composure, ignoring the strange looks from the crowd as if nothing had happened.

He then spoke to Liam arrogantly. “Few people can counter this many of my attacks, so it turns out you aren’t a weakling after all. But… if you really want to be my sister’s brother, you’ll need more than just courage, but also strategy.”

Liam seemed relieved and confidently replied. “That’s my strength, for sure.

‘ Don’t celebrate just yet, I have a task for you…” Quinton glanced at Renee mysteriously as he spoke, signaling toward Lia. “Come here. I’ll tell you in detail.”

Renee was rather awkward as she saw this. “Quinton, don’t you think you’ve done enough?

He just came back, and this is his party! You just fought him, and now you want to assign him tasks? Aren’t you being too much?”

Before Quinton could respond, Liam quickly interrupted excitedly. He was just as nonchalant as he used to be. “Boss, I’d feel weird if you guys weren’t being too much! If your brother wishes to test me, then so be it! I want to show you my growth.”

“Ah…” Renee slapped her forehead, not knowing what to say at that moment.

Leia rubbed her chin and sighed deeply. “Ah, my brother is such a simp. The king of simps, if you will.”

Quinton then whispered something into Liam’s ear.

Liam raised an eyebrow and smiled. “Don’t worry, Bro, I actually planned to do that even before you asked me.”

Renee, however, couldn’t hear anything they said, which made her extremely anxious. She felt like she had to pester Liam, no matter where he went or what he did, just to get an answer out of him.

“Liam, so what task did my brother assign to you?”

“I cant tell you.”

“Can’t tell me? All the more reason you should! Tell me now.”

“I really can’t.”

“Oh, come on! Why are you being so tight-lipped? Whose brother are you anyway?”

“Boss, you don’t have to provoke me; this is a task from your brother, which means it’s a personal matter to me. Just sit back… and enjoy the show.” Liam smiled, still refusing to reveal anything to her.

Upon hearing this, Renee had no choice but to let it go.

Later on, the banquet was carried on smoothly, with everyone having a good time.

Many of Azure Group’s employees, along with their long-term business partners, were delighted with Liam’s return as well.

Some, who were hesitant to work with Azure Group, were relieved to see Liam’s strength as well. Hence, it led to them signing contracts with the company right there and then.

However, this loveliness only lasted till nighttime. It was soon replaced by a trending topic that shattered their peace.

The first three trending searches were all about Quinton’s face.

[Night Demon’s real face!]

[Night Demon, the horrifying ghost!] [Night Demon, the Everheart siblings!]
