Chapter 246 Growing Unease

“Get lost!”

In the mansion where Liam kept Hailey, his lover, he pushed her away from him, somewhat irritated. “You can’t even pique my interest,” he said.

For some reason, he spent a long time with Hailey that night, but he just couldn’t muster any feelings.

This made his already irritable mood even more frustrated.

Hailey covered her face, marked deeply by a handprint.

Biting back her grievances, she said, “Mr. Sable, perhaps you’ve been too tired these past few days. Why don’t you take a rest first?”

After being locked up for fifteen days, Liam took his anger on her at least thrice daily.

Those past couple of days, he had been outmaneuvered by Finnegan and hadn’t had a good rest.

Hene Hailey found it hard to believe that he had energy.

In response, Liam slapped her without hesitation. “D*mn it! Are you implying that I’m not a man? Are you

suggesting that I’m useless?”

“Mr. Sable, that’s not what I meant. What I’m trying to say is-”

“Get lost!”

Before Hailey could finish her sentence, Liam kicked her off the bed. “It’s because you lack charm. If it were Bernice, I wouldn’t be like this!”

Hailey clutched her stomach, daring not to say more. With tears in her eyes, she rose to her feet and walked into the bathroom, phone in hand.

She was about to send a message to Finnegan, asking when he would finally take action against Liam, and when her nightmare would finally end.

“Why do I feel particularly annoyed tonight? What on earth is going on?” Liam lit a cigarette.

After taking a few puffs, he grabbed a bath towel and wrapped it around his waist. Then he dialed Axel’s number and ordered, “Come to my room!” noveldrama

Soon, Axel arrived in the room. “Mr. Sable, what’s wrong?”

Liam stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray. “I don’t know why, but I’m particularly irritated tonight. I’m irritated to the point of wanting to kill someone!”

Having grown up with Liam, Axel instantly understood his meaning. “Mr. Sable, are you planning to make a move on Finnegan ahead of time? But didn’t you say we’d discuss this after the current matter is resolved?”

Liam narrowed his eyes, exuding a ruthless aura. “Of course, we should take our time with him. It would

be too easy to just kill him without any torment. I wanted to ask how those three tasks were coming along. When will Finnegan’s family be sent to jail?”

Inside the bathroom, Hailey, who had just cleaned herself and wrapped a bath towel around her, was slightly trembling.

Her face was strikingly stern. Did Mr. Sable do something to Finnegan’s parents and sister?

Subconsciously, Axel glanced around and whispered, “Mr. Sable, Finnegan, the Haimowitz family, the Miles family, and even the Langdon family are all on good terms with each other. It’s better if you don’t speak of this.”

“Enough with the chatter. We’re all friends here. Spit it out already!” At this moment, Liam was completely in a state of irritability and impatience.

With a sigh, Axel had no choice but to reply, “Finnegan’s sister is currently detained at the police station, yet to be charged. They’re probably waiting to see if the Haimowitz family refuses to compensate and if Finnegan cannot pay before they make a decision. As for Finnegan’s parents, they are still in the hospital. I’m afraid we’ll have to wait until they recover before we see any results. But I’ve already instructed those two families to keep a close eye on the police department every day for results. We’ll definitely ensure that Finnegan’s parents end up in jail!”

Liam’s expression softened slightly when he heard that. “Is there any sign of the Haimowitz and Miles

families, along with the Langdon family, helping Finnegan?”

Axel replied, “Didn’t Hailey mention this before? It seems like everyone is just watching. They didn’t lend money to Finnegan to save his sister, and they even called back Shaun and others, which led to the closure’ of Jerome Medical Clinic. There’s no other unusual activity.”

Hailey’s expression tightened as she continued to compose a text message in the bathroom.

Indeed, she was the one who said those words.

But in reality, she had already discovered that the Haimowitz and Miles families, along with the Langdon family, were secretly planning something. It seemed to be targeted at Regi Group.

However, her loyalty had already shifted toward Finnegan. She would not reveal the truth to Liam in order to prevent Liam from going mad and getting rid of her first.

Liam furrowed his brows. “It seems that the relationship between the various families and Finnegan is indeed strained. As I expected, Jerome Medical Clinic has already closed down. Finnegan’s family will soon be sent to prison. They’ll get a taste of the nightmare I’ve been through. But why do I still feel somewhat uneasy?”
