Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life

Chapter 1053

Liam had been following Cecelia around for ages, which naturally led him to know Henrik. He quickly noticed that the tough-looking Vince was actually intimidated by Henrik. Liam was thrilled. Cecelia seemed to have a knack for charming people. She had effortlessly caught the attention of a big shot businessman, someone even Vince was wary of! Considering himself Cecelia's adoptive father, Liam fancied the idea of being the future father-in-law to a major CEO. Didn't that mean he could strut around with newfound confidence? With that thought, Liam sprang to his feet, elbowing his way through the crowd. "Hey, make way! I know Mr. Raul! We're pals! He's been seeing my daughter!" Gone was his earlier meekness as he pushed past the underlings, believing that as Henrik's future father-in-law, they should practically treat him like royalty. "Hey there, Mr. Raul..." Liam said, rubbing his hands together with a grin. "I'm Cecelia's dad! She talks about you all the time, sings your praises!"

As he spoke, Liam boldly tried to slap Henrik on the shoulder, but Henrik stepped back, avoiding the touch.

Liam's expression soured immediately.

If Henrik truly had feelings for Cecelia and they ended up together, Liam would be his father-in-law. Was this the way to treat him?

But then he reconsidered. Men like Henrik often had tempers. As long as he was willing to pay, that was all Liam cared about.

He chuckled, "Mr. Raul, I know you're into Cecelia, and I'm all for it! She's a stunner, great figure too. And let's just say, she's quite adventurous in the bedroom. You'll have a blast." Winking and speaking crudely, Liam added, "These days, even a night with a lady costs, right? I'm not asking for much. Just ten million, and Cecelia's yours to do as you please " Liam's pitch was abruptly cut short.

With a swift kick, Henrik sent Liam sprawling, landing heavily on the ground. The force behind the kick was unmistakable.
