Liam smiled at his wife and went ahead to hold her hands. “I'll tell you everything that transpired between me and the kidnappers. But first, you need to go and take a bath. Change into something clean and come back."“I'm waiting for you."After casting a disappointed look at her husband, she let out a deep sigh and went into the bathroom. After about five minutes, she came out and found Liam already fast asleep.They were a couple but didn't share the same bed. Liam was sleeping on the large Sofa in the room while Miranda had the bed all to herself.Sometimes she felt bad and selfish for letting Liam sleep on the Sofa while there was enough space on the king-sized bed. Oftentimes she's asked Liam to join her on the bed but he kept refusing. He has true feelings for her and didn't want to violate her. He can only share the bed with her when she'd confessed her love for him. As long as her feelings for him were yet to develop, Liam would not get any closer. He wanted to give her eno

It was Patricia knocking on the door. The couple turned at once to glance at the door before Miranda spoke in a whisper, ignoring the knock. “How can you be so sure? Did any of the men confess? And you're yet to tell me how you even escaped."Liam sighed and continued. "They took me to a lonely path and beat me up. Fortunately, I managed to untie the rope used in binding me up. I beat them all up and they fled because they were no match for me.”Miranda didn't believe her husband. How could he beat up three able men all by himself."What? How did you do that?”The bang on the door came again and Miranda had to go open the door."Mom? Do you need anything?”Patricia said nothing. Instead, she casted a glare at Liam and spoke coldly to him.“Where is the breakfast you made?" Liam and Miranda exchanged glances before she said to him. "I'll go ahead now. See you guys later."“I'll call you to find out how it went." Liam said to her and she smiled and left the two of them.When Miranda l

“You. What are you doing here?" He asked, feigning to be confused. He had already seen from the cameras all that transpired between the cousins. He had also called Liam to inform him on the recent development. “Yes, it's me." Piper replied while smiling broadly at the man."I'm representing Top Notch interiors in place of my cousin so I came here to sign the contract.” Piper was still smiling at the man while she spoke.Turning his face towards the direction of the door, Sean pointed his hand at the entrance and said to Piper with furrowed brows."Was that not Miss Miranda who just walked out of that door? How come both of you came here at the same time? Are you sure she's not in conflict with this new development.”Piper chuckled lightly before replying to Sean. "Miranda is perfectly fine with the new arrangement. So don't worry about that.”She suddenly furrowed her brows and raised a finger as if trying to remember something. "And I heard you address her as a Miss." Piper said an

After Liam left, Miranda felt quite relieved and better. Her husband's words had done some magic. Perhaps it was best not to think about the whole situation. It's not her fault if Lady Mary and the others didn't like her.She decided to join her girls to attend to the customers. Miranda had just served a few tables when a thought crossed her mind. She was yet to call Hailey who rushed out of her restaurant the previous day. Something must have happened and Miranda was yet to find out. Once she was behind the cash register, Miranda took out her phone and called Hailey. The phone rang a few times but she didn't pick up.She also tried Jane's number and she didn't pick as well.“Where the heck did they keep their phones? I hope all is well?" Miranda muttered to herself as she continued to attend to customers.After a while, the two friends walked into her restaurant and helped themselves to a table.Swiftly, Miranda ran to meet up with them. She drew out an empty seat and sat on it whi

“Miranda." She turned around to see Piper striding towards her with so much rage. Miranda could see that her cousin was angry and kept wondering what the problem was.It was Piper who took away the contract she earned for Top Notch interiors. Why was she angry when she should be jubilating over her new feat?“How dare you?"Piper rushed over and gave her a dirty slap.Shocked, Miranda placed her hand on her cheek and gave Piper a dirty look. She turned around and saw that a few people noticed the incident that transpired.“What was that for?" Miranda was now furious but had to pull herself together. It would be a taint on her good image if she were to retaliate and end up fighting with her cousin.If Piper had slapped her at a secret place, devoid of people stares, she would not take it. “Why did you have to slap me?" Miranda asked in a raised voice as she glared at Piper.“What did you do?" Piper asked her in a very serious tone and got her more confused. “What are you talking abo

“Who is it?" Theophilus asked and it turned out to be his secretary. She used to be Landon's secretary when he was the CEO. However, Landon was no longer the CEO of Aura cosmetics. “Sir, someone is here to see you. Her name is Allison Weston and she claims to be a model.” The lady spoke from outside and the two men exchanged looks.Liam was confused. How did she know that they were looking for a model?Aura cosmetics didn't make any public announcement about looking for a model. They were still in the process of scrutinizing their candidates through their social media pages.It was only Hailey who once had a deal with them that knew about their new product.“Wow! Allison. You must have ears everywhere.” Liam muttered to himself. Theophilus turned to Liam to find out about his opinion and saw that he was shaking his head.“I already told you earlier. I don't want her as my model. Ask her to leave now." After a deep sigh, Theophilus asked his secretary to come inside and she stepped

"That's a great idea.” Ruby supported and said to them. "Come on, let's go have lunch. We can discuss the party over lunch.”Miranda stood there staring at her Uncle and Aunt as well as lady Mary. She was speechless as she watched them chatting away and pretended that she didn't exist. Like she wasn't a family member.“Miranda, you're welcome to join us for lunch. If you wish." Ruby said to her but she declined."I'm fine, Aunt.” The invitation sounded like it didn't come from her mind. They didn't like her after all, what's the point of going to dine with them alone. They could only dine together if it was a family dinner. Miranda believed that her uncle and his family were selfish and could only think of anything that'll benefit them.They were celebrating over the result of her hard work and didn't care about how she felt.As the happy family made their way to the main building, a car honked, pausing them on their tracks.Soon Allison made her way to where they stood.

Later that evening, Liam found his way back to his wife's diner. The shop was already closed for the day. However, Miranda was not yet getting ready to go home. Her assistants were already off, leaving her all by herself.Since the door was closed from inside, Liam had to knock on it.“We're closed for the day." A sad voice replied from the inside. "Mira, it's me, Liam.”Miranda turned around and glanced at the glass door where she saw her husband waving at her. After staring at her husband who seemed happy, Miranda went to open the door. “Liam?"Liam walked inside and quickly noticed the look on his wife's face. At that instant, he concluded that she must be in a bad mood.“Mira, you look so sad. What is the problem?" Miranda shook her head. At first, she didn't want to say anything but decided against it.Liam was her husband so she had to tell him what the problem was."It's Piper.”Liam furrowed his brows and held her hands. They went ahead and sat down at the nearest chairs."

The couple soon got into a cab and Liam said to the driver. “Take us to the Mall."“No, take us to the park, I'm not in the mood for shopping tonight.” Miranda instructed the driver and got him confused. Liam was also confused. With furrowed brows, Liam turned to her in a questioning gaze.“Why don't you want to go shopping?"“Nothing, I just changed my mind. Maybe next time, you can take me shopping." Miranda could not get herself to tell her husband the reason she changed her mind about shopping. She didn't want him to spend the little savings he had on her.Liam, on the other hand, knew what his wife was thinking but didn't say anything. He decided to go with whatever decision she takes."Sir, Ma'am. Have you both decided on where to go?"The cab driver asked and Liam replied. “Yeah, just drive to the park."“Ok, the park it is then." The man nodded and took off to the new destination. In less than thirty minutes, they were at Dublin city national park. A lot of people were seen i

Jane rolled down her window and found Liam waving at her which caused her heart to skip.She swallowed hard and said to him. “You startled me, Liam. Tell me what you want from me?”“You've taken away my source of livelihood, what more do you want from me?"Liam smiled at her and the smile soon turned to a frown.“I came here to give you a reminder." He spoke with a smirk on his face. "If you say anything about our last encounter to anyone, I'd make sure your banking career is over.” Liam threatened and got Jane sweating profusely. Liam had gotten her fired and was still coming to threaten her.Jane tilted her head and replied calmly. “I've heard you and also have no intention of revealing anything to anyone.”"Good.” Liam said to her and turned his face to see Hailey approaching. "Very well then, I have to go now but you must know that my eyes are on you.”Jane said nothing while Liam left her alone."What were you discussing with Liam? I'm sure it was him who just left here.” Hailey
