NovelGoldChapter 165 Liam shook his head in resignation and headed to the bank as Sean had instructed.
Inside the bank, he swiftly withdrew a hefty bag of cash.
Not long after, Liam appeared in Brian's hospital room, carrying the bag of money.
At that moment, Brian had just regained consciousness, his head wrapped in layers of bandages.
Seeing Liam enter, Brian's eyes were filled with undisguised disdain, for he knew Liam was one of Sean's men. Although he didn't fully understand Sean yet, there was one thing he was certain of: Sean was incredibly arrogant.
A person like Sean wouldn't admit fault even if he were beaten down.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNow, with Sean's assistant in his hospital room, it couldn't be good news.
Thus, he glared at Liam coldly and spat out his words with the disdain one might use to shoo away a dog, "Did I invite you in? Get out!" Liam's expression remained steady, unfazed by Brian's hostile words.
He walked calmly to the bedside and emptied the bag of money onto Brian's bed.
Ten stacks of crisp, new bills.
With a smirk playing on his lips, Liam picked up a stack and waved it in front of Brian, "This is the 'medical bill' courtesy of Mr. Foster. Our CEO said ten grand should more than cover it. The rest, Mr. Cole, you can use to buy sbrain supplements." Brian's face turned a deep shade of red with anger, his eyes burning with fury. It was an outright insult.
Ten thousand dollars might be a generous offer for a regular person, but for the heir to the Cresthaven Cole family, it was nothing. It couldn't even buy the shoes on his feet.
To Sean, his head injury was worth a mere ten grand! And the suggestion to buy brain supplements was a clear insinuation that he was brainless.
Rage surged through Brian, his neck veins bulging as his body contorted with anger.
He grabbed the money from the bed and hurled it at Liam with all his might.
"Get out!" Liam, nimble and swift, easily dodged the flying bills, not even brushing his coat.
Watching Brian's furious demeanor, Liam felt secretly satisfied, though he maintained a composed exterior. "Mr. Cole, why the fuss? My boss meant well. Why don't you appreciate the gesture?" Liam's calm demeanor only highlighted Brian's loss of control.
Overcby anger, Brian yearned to tear apart the man who humiliated him, ignoring the pain from his wounds as he struggled to get out of bed to attack Liam, only to trip and fall to the floor.
Liam laughed openly, offering no sympathy.
"Seeing you so lively, Mr. Cole, I assyour wounds are healing well. Rest up; I need to report your good health to my boss." With that, he strode out of the room, considerately shutting the door behind him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut before the door closed completely, Liam flashed a wide grin at Brian, "Goodbye, Mr. Cole!" His smug demeanor nearly caused Brian to pass out from rage.
In the now-quiet room, only the sound of Brian's heavy breathing and the sight of the cash remained, mocking his plight. It took him a while to calm down.
Though he hadn't seen who hit him on the head, he could guess it was Sean's fiancée from the peculiar way Sean had behaved around her. He squinted slightly, pondering that perhaps this woman could be the key to securing the Eastborough Project.
He picked up his phone and called his assistant, "Find out everything! you can about Sean's fiancée. The more detailed, the better." After ending the call, he sat on the hospital bed, thoughts drifting back to Claire.
It had been four or five days, and still, there was no news of her.
