A Healer’s Journey

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!”

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!”
