Chapter 31 Liam Hamilton

In the leisure area near the banquet hall, Shirley noticed an increasing crowd gathering

She was wary of provoking Liam further or risking him saying something out of line to Robin.

She felt certain that if things escalated, with Robin's temperament, he wouldn't hesitate to confront Liam directly.

Steadying herself after the kiss on Robin's face, Shirley gave a gentle smile.

"Mr. Liam, let's avoid any further misunderstandings. Il enter the hall with my boyfriend first."

Liam's eyes momentarily darkened, but he quickly maintained his charming, gentlemanly expression.

"Of course, Shirley," he replied, gesturing for her to proceed.

Shirley took Robin's arm, guiding him toward the hall.

Meanwhile, Liam signaled a waiter, requesting a glass of red wine. He downed several glasses, gradually tempering his intense anger. Observing the situation, guests quickly offered polite remarks before discreetly departing, not wanting to be the target of Liam's wrath.

Many sensed that today's events wouldn't go unaddressed by him.

Just then, Eric burst in, visibly upset.

"Liam, I was attacked by that Robin Ramsey over at Violeterest Bar!"

Eric went on to recount the story, clearly exaggerating the details to incite Liam further.

"Robin again?" Liam seethed. "Get to the bottom of who this brazen guy is!"

He kicked Eric in frustration. "How many times must I tell you to show some restraint? Apart from your foolish antics with women and causing chaos, what else are you capable of?"
