Rise Of The World's Overlord 11. A Mix Of Frustration And Worry.
Chapter 11When Naya didn't give a response, he took the phone off his ear only to find out that she had hung up. “Why?” He muttered, redialing her contact but she didn't pick up. Throwing courtesy aside, he continued dialling her contact while Naya, who had her phone resting on the leather seat, wouldn't pick up. She was just staring at it, her lips parted into a smile as she imagined the look on Liam’s face. Without being told, she already knew his expression was going to be a mix of frustration and worry, judging by the tone he had used in speaking to her. “He keeps calling, it's best if you tell him what you are up to.” One of her bodyguards said but she shook her head in the negative. Propping herself up, she pushed her hair behind her ear, staring at her ringing phone. “Where was his last location?” She asked. “He is still in front of the police station. From the look of things, he would be heading somewhere else within a few minutes.” The second bodyguard added and she no
Rise Of The World's Overlord 12. His Gaze Fixed On Her...
Chapter 12After pulling away from the hug, not allowing Liam to recover from the sudden and unexpected action, Naya turned around. Now staring at her bodyguards, she said, “Let him in.” She said and immediately a door was pulled open. For a moment, Liam didn't move his feet, he maintained his position, his gaze fixed on her as she wondered what she was up to. “Aren't you coming with me anymore, or… have you changed your mind?” Shrugging, she said, “It’s not a big deal if you change your mind. Just know…”Liam didn't allow her to finish speaking before he climbed into the car. The tone she had used earlier continued ringing in his head and he had no choice but to act on the safe side. Once inside the car, Naya joined him and a minute later, the engine roared into life. All through the drive, Liam was trying to steady his heavy breathing. Everything was happening too fast for him to comprehend. Clutching his phone tightly, he cast Naya a quick glance before returning his gaze to
Rise Of The World's Overlord 13. I Deserve Some Privacy.
Chapter 13Still having her head bent to the ground, Naya remained mute as she sucked her teeth. Her eyes which were fixed on the pictures were burning with hot tears which she was determined not to let roll down her cheeks. Her tears were borne out of the anger that was welling inside of her. The more she looked at the pictures, the angrier she became. “What has gotten over you, answer the damn question.” Nathan snapped as he made his way towards her but he was stopped by his father. Almost immediately, Naya, raised her head, she was still on her knees but her voice was firm. “I deserve some privacy. I can’t go about telling everyone what is going on in my life.” Shifting her gaze to Sam, she gripped one of the pictures with both hands and then ripped it apart, “I bet it's high time you mind your fucking business. Who I meet, where I go to, is none of your business.” Her voice was loud and firm. After this, it took a while before the interrogation resumed again and a resilience
Rise Of The World's Overlord 14. Your Eloquence Is Commendable.
Chapter 14After his words, Liam maintained a stoic expression, staring back at Nathan and Sam who were making fun of him earlier. This time around, the duo couldn't say anything, instead, they just sat there, their lips glued. Meanwhile, Naya was surprised with Liam’s outburst. She was not expecting him to say a word but he did and surprisingly, neither her cousin nor any member of her family could counter it. Deep down, she was brimming with joy but was careful not to show it so as not to further escalate the issue at hand. Staring at Liam, Sam’s father folded his hands around his chest and then took a step backwards to have a proper view of Liam's face. “I asked a question and I deserve a response.” Liam snapped, breaking the silence in the room. This time around, Naya was quick to get to his side. She grabbed his hand and with an apologetic look on her face, she said, “Can you just calm down a little?” “Are you being serious here?” Liam whispered back and immediately, he flu
Rise Of The World's Overlord 15. "Weren't they dating?"
Chapter 15 At his words, all eyes were fixed on him. It was as if he had committed a heinous crime after being portrayed as innocent. Gulping, Liam tried to speak but he couldn't move his tongue, Naya on the other hand was sweating profusely as she rubbed her sweaty palms against her dress. Her intention was to wriggle out from what was to come only for her to fall into a pit which was deeper than the former. “Why marriage?” Grandmother asked, she was taken aback by the sudden suggestion. “Weren't they dating? Marriage will help to consummate their union and make it official.” he replied with a shrug, fueling her anger. “I disagree, I'm not going to sit back and watch Naya get married to someone who has no future. Are you out of your senses, why would you give such a vile suggestion?” She yelled, hitting her palm against the leather chair. “Calm down, it's just a suggestion. I didn't impose it on them.” He mused. “Moreover, it seems the both of them are inseparable. Instead of
Rise Of The World's Overlord 16. She Was Devastated...
Chapter 16“Registry?” Liam repeated, trying to wrap his head around the sudden development. His face was knitted with a deep frown. Why the suddenness? This and many other related questions spiralled through his head all at once. While everyone was exchanging glances among themselves, Naya's grandmother was reclining against her seat with her fists clenched. If not for the video Sam had shown her earlier, she wouldn't have allowed Naya to get married to a low life, a term she used in describing Liam. “Grandmother, don't you think you are overreacting here?” Sam asked with a frown on his face. He tossed the iPad he was gripping aside and then walked up to her. Holding her hands in his, he said, “Please take it easy and review your decision. Handing Naya over to him is going to put a dent on the family's name. Not only that, tongues will start wagging and Naya is definitely going to suffer.” “You think I'm pleased with this, huh? You think I would ordinarily hand Naya to a worthl
Rise Of The World's Overlord 17. I Was Framed.
Chapter 17Immediately Liam and Naya stepped out of the living room, Liam flung her hand off his and then stomped outside while Naya ran after him. When they got to the car, he was about to start throwing fits when she pushed him in, got in too and then banged the door shut. “Are you out of your mind?” Liam yelled at her. He was livid and embarrassed at the same time. Even though he had nothing to offer, this was the first time he was being treated with multiple disrespect. “Please calm down.” Naya said, trying to hold his hand but he flung it away, still seething with anger. “How do you expect me to calm down? Your family practically downgraded me back there and you are telling me to calm down… oh, I see… you were busy enjoying the show right?” Hitting his palms together, he yelled, “You brought me here to make fun of me, right?” “That's not the issue here, please calm down and listen to me.” She pleaded with a tiny voice hoping it would placate him but he was just too angry to
Rise Of The World's Overlord 18. Confused For A Moment.
Chapter 18Stunned by her sudden action, Liam turned slowly with his lips slightly parted. Tugging his hair, he titled his head to the side, frustration rushing through his vein. “I know I’m not worthy to be aligned with you but please, help me this once. If you don't, it will be over for me, please.” She cried, rubbing her palms together. This time around, she didn't restrict the tears that had been threatening to roll down her eyes since the ordeal began. “Please get up, this is not you.” Liam said with a little emotion. From her appearance and the way she had tackled her family back there, he knew she was a proud person and was surprised that she fell on her knees to solicit for his help. “Are you going to help me? If you aren't, I'm not leaving yet.” Wiping her face with the back of her palm, she continued, “If you leave me now, things are going to be more messy, please don't.” Liam, who had already planned out how the rest of the day was going to be, began to pace around a l
