Married to a Secret Billionaire (Stella Taylor) novel Chapter 105

Chapter 105 Liam is Dead

He remained silent, his breathing becoming heavier.

His phone buzzed, and an email came in.

He flipped through the information.

As he suspected, Jericho had a grudge against the real Liam in the past.

"Master Noah." Andrew continued on the other end, "When Jericho was eighteen, he was imprisoned for intentional injury and was sentenced to ten years. However, due to his good behavior in prison, he was released two years early."

"These past two years, he has been flourishing in Eldoria, taking over several major gangs. But there are also rumors that he rose to power by inciting those big shots and secretly getting rid of them, which was why he became influential."

Noah furrowed his brow, gently massaging his temples.

"Now Jericho has many bars and nightclubs under his control, but they are all just a front. He is involved in illegal activities."

Noah asked in a low voice, "What was his situation in prison?"

Andrew coughed lightly twice. "He used to be a leader in prison. It is said that even among inmates, there are different levels. Someone like Jericho, who was sent to jail for murder and injury, is highly respected by other inmates."

"As for Liam... he was a rapist and the most despised."

"What?" Noah was very surprised. He had taken over the identity of a rapist!

"Wasn't he just an ordinary thug who knew how to fight?"

"Master Noah." Andrew smiled bitterly. "How could an ordinary thug be imprisoned and released so many times?"

Noah furrowed his brow, his temples throbbing even more.

"Liam was a habitual offender. It is said that the youngest girl he violated was only sixteen..."

Noah took a deep breath, exhaling heavily.

How disgusting!

Not only did Jericho look down on Liam, but he despised Liam even more.

Fortunately, Liam was already dead.

"Master Noah, it's best for you to stay away from Jericho. He has some influence now. Although it's not comparable to the Martinez family, he is involved in the underworld, and we have completely different rules. If by any chance he..."

"Alright, I understand." Noah knew what Andrew was going to say.

If Jericho intentionally caused trouble because of his past conflicts and contempt for Liam, it would be easy for Jericho to realize that Noah and Liam were not the same person at all.

Right now, Noah wasn't afraid of anything else. He was only afraid that Stella would find out.

Although she would eventually find out that he was Noah, he wanted to explain it to her slowly. Before that, there must not be any accidents.

Noah hung up the phone, took a towel, and wiped himself off before walking out.

Stella was already asleep, lying on the bed with her arms spread open, one leg curled up and the other stretched out, occupying the entire bed.

Noah smiled. His wife's sleeping posture was indeed not beautiful.

But he just liked it.

He walked over gently and pecked her forehead, covering her with the blanket. Then he quietly turned back to the living room.

The land acquisition plan for the Martinez family in the western district of Emberfall was only halfway through. Currently, he needed to find a way to attract funds from Mintwale to facilitate the project together.

However, Sir Martinez, who was naturally suspicious, had always been on guard against his grandfather's family and was unwilling to cooperate easily.

Noah pinched his forehead, opened his computer, and continued working on the proposal.

After an unknown amount of time, he straightened his body and wanted to pour a glass of water but suddenly noticed Stella standing at the bedroom door, groggily looking at him.

"Darling, what are you doing?"

Noah was startled but remained calm as he closed the computer.

"I couldn't sleep, so I got up to watch the news."
