Chapter 29

Haylan’s rage burned fiercely, his forehead creasing with visible veins as his fury threatened to boil

over.

His gaze locked onto Liam, cold and unyielding, as he struggled to contain his wrath, his body. vibrating with a palpable aura of violence and menace.

Haylan seethed with indignation, thinking, “This was the sister who had loved me the most in the past, and this man dared to treat her with such cruelty. He is asking for death!”

If it weren’t for Tracy and Floris’s presence, Haylan would have torn Liam to pieces without a second thought.

“Who are you to interfere in our family’s affairs?” Liam spat out, glaring daggers at Haylan as he struggled to free himself. “Let go of me!”

Despite his struggles, Liam found himself unable to break free from the iron grip of Haylan’s hand. His efforts were in vain, as Haylan’s grip was unyielding and relentless.

“Apologize!”

Haylan stared coldly at Liam, and with a sudden burst of strength, he tightened his grip on the man’s wrist, causing him to wince in pain.

“Crack!”

The cracking sound was accompanied by the sickening sound of Liam’s wrist snapping, the bones in his hand contorting grotesquely on impact.

“Ah!”

Liam writhed in agony as the pain in his wrist became unbearable. “It hurts, it hurts so much!”

Liam’s face twisted in agony, his complexion drained of color, as he writhed on the ground, wailing in pain. His screams echoed down the hospital hallway, causing nearby patients to peek out of their rooms in confusion.

“Listen up, this is the last time I’ll be telling you: apologize to my sister right this moment!” Haylan spoke with an icy tone, his voice piercing through the air like a sharpened blade.

“Your sister?”

It was only after a moment of silence that Liam finally reacted, his eyes widening in shock. “Wait a minute, are you the younger brother of Floris Hammond?” he asked, his voice carrying a hint of disbelief.

“Snapped!”

Haylan didn’t even let him finish his sentence. In one swift motion, he delivered a hard, stinging slap to Liam’s face. The impact was so strong that his face turned red and swelled immediately. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, evidence of the severity of the blow. Liam was left reeling from the attack, seriously injured and struggling to maintain his balance.

“This slap is what you get for laying a hand on my sister!”

Haylan’s eyes turned icy cold, and he spoke deliberately, pausing between each word for emphasis. “Now, apologize to me right this instant!”

“You think you can bring your family to attack me, you little bitch Floris Hammond?” sneered Liam, his tone dripping with contempt. “I’m warning you. I’m the General Manager of the Fortune Group!

“If you lay a finger on me, the Fortune Group’s matriarch won’t let you get away with it!”
