My Invincible Husband Has Returned novel Chapter 195

"So, you're Hayes?"

Liam settled into the chair, his formidable presence making it hard for Hayes to even breathe.

"Yes, sir, I'm Hayes," he stammered, drenched in sweat and shaking, desperate not to anger the man before him.

Liam's gaze was frosty, his voice calm but loaded with a threat that sent shivers down Hayes's spine.

"Did I just hear that Yafe and Sherah have been messing with my wife?"

Liam tapped the chair's armrest rhythmically, the sound echoing ominously. He was just sitting there, but the fear he inspired was palpable.

Hayes's voice trembled with fear as he spoke, "Yes, yes! They approached me today, handed over a hefty sum of 50,000, and wanted me to conspire with them against Ms. Celena Stone. It just so happened that Ms. Celena Stone walked in on us, and a heated argument broke out. Sherah lost her temper and slapped Ms. Celena Stone, hurling insults at her."

A wave of dread washed over Hayes. Celena was his wife, and that man—was he the so-called deadbeat, the homeless Liam they all scorned?

How could it be that Liam, labeled a nobody, instilled such fear in Mr. Eaden Wafer, the powerhouse of Drunham City?

Who was that Liam, that even Eaden, a man feared by many, trembled before him?

Hayes couldn't get another word out before Liam's presence grew more menacing, the air around him turning icy with his fury. Everyone there felt the weight of his anger, struggling to catch their breath as if the very temperature plummeted.
