Rise Of The World's Overlord 68. Rolling his eyes...
Chapter 68 All through the drive to their home, Naya had her gaze out of the window as she reviewed all that had happened in her head. Had it been Liam hadn't come to her aid again, she might have ended up in the back books of her grandmother for denting the family name by sleeping with a random guy for the second time.The thought of this made her shudder as her resentment for Nathan, Sandra and Sam grew. Even though Nathan wasn't present, she still felt he had a role to play in it. Blinking her eyes rapidly, she tried to forget about what had happened but she just couldn't. It was as if it had been stamped permanently to her memory and she was going to live with it for the rest of her life. Casting Liam a glance, she saw him fiddling with a flash drive. She wanted to ask him what it contained but when she remembered he had Mr. Jones's project at hand, she kept her questions to herself. About half an hour later, Wren pulled up in the garage. Stressed from the day's event and th
Rise Of The World's Overlord 69. The competition.
Chapter 69After leaving the hospital and promising Rose that he was going to visit her after the competition which was scheduled to be held the following day, he returned home.Since it was already late, he planned out that he was going to grab a late-night snack afterward and proceed to bed so he would be fully rested for the following day. Pushing the door open, the first thing that attracted him when he got in was the light in Naya's room. She had been waiting for his arrival so she could show him the proposal she had written.All through the day, she had been trying to come up with the best work to please Liam and even decided to stay up until he returned. She was already drifting off when the door creaked open and immediately, she got off her study table, and with the speed of lightning, made her way downstairs to go meet with him. Smiling broadly, she showed off the screen of her iPad to him with a bright smile on her face. She was expecting him to reciprocate it but instead
Rise Of The World's Overlord 70. What's this issue?
Chapter 70When Naya first arrived at the venue which was Liam's university, she was taken aback by the large amount of cars that were lined up in the school premises and so she allowed her mouth to drop open. Seeing this, Wren turned around and with a little chuckle, asked, “What is the issue?” “The population, I know it's a national competition but I don't have an idea that it would be packed full this way. Not going to lie, I'm overwhelmed by it all.” She said, smacking her lips, still rolling her eyes in amazement. After what seemed like forever, she pushed the door open, followed by Wren who felt that since Liam wasn't anywhere near her, he should accompany her. Just when they were about to get inside the building, the gathering of a group of people talking about the competition attracted Naya, and with deliberate steps, she made her way towards them. “You think a hackathon is like that staged scene of the previous time.” An elderly woman yelled. She was angry with the fact
Rise Of The World's Overlord 71. I'm not going to slack.
Chapter 71Rolling her eyes to the back of her head, Naya wrapped her hands across her chest as she scowled at the woman who was still ranting.She was glad that she had tipped her off since that was the only thing she could do to repay Liam for coming through for her several times. “This is the only way I can thank Liam for all that he has been doing and I'm not going to slack.” She said with a huff. Ignoring the lady who was still throwing tantrums, she turned towards the building and began to walk in that direction, with her head pushed upward and a bright smile on her face. The competition was about to start when she walked in and she counted herself lucky even though she hadn't found a seat in the hall yet because of the massive population. Staring at Liam who was being displayed on the screen with admiration, she didn't bother finding a seat until Wren grabbed her hand and then led her to the seat he had secured for her. The competition was going to be held in three phases
Rise Of The World's Overlord 72. "You guys did a great job."
Chapter 72Jake began to tremble all of a sudden. He was scared to even stare at the screen since they had just two minutes left before the timer went off. Even before the result was announced, he had begun to feel like a failure and was already facepalming himself for getting too involved in the competition only to lose with just a point. Nudging him, Liam tried to get his attention but he ignored him totally. He felt he was the one who had made them loose and Liam was about to chide him for it. “Cut it man.” Liam chided, hitting his shoulder slightly.Just as Jake raised his head, the timer went off and he sank into his seat with his head buried to the floor. Now worried that something had happened to him, Liam held his shoulder.“What is it?” Liam asked, shaking his shoulders. Amidst the noise in the hall, he was more concerned about how his friend was faring and was getting scared that something had gone wrong. Still trying to get his attention, the school representative walke
Rise Of The World's Overlord 73. Cheers to more wins.
Chapter 73Shocked to see her, didn't know how to react to the surprise as she kept congratulating him repeatedly. It took Liam's and Jake's joint efforts to get her down; otherwise, she was ready to cling to him, not minding the cameras that were flashing and taking a record of everything that was happening. Now holding her shoulders, Liam stared deep into her eyes, trying to get his answers from them even without asking questions but all he could see was joy glistening in them.It was as if she was the one who had won the competition and this alone made him pull her to himself, crushing her in a bear hug. This was the first time someone apart from Jake and Rose was showing sincere care about his success. Overwhelmed, a lone tear escaped from his eyes while Naya sobbed over his shoulder. She couldn't contain the happiness that was running through her veins no matter how much she tried. “Liam, it's time for the press conference.” Jake said, breaking into their moment.Naya having
Rise Of The World's Overlord 74. She was being sincere.
Chapter 74After a lengthy talk with Rose, Liam returned to the table to join Naya and Jake who were chatting heartily like they had known each other for a while now.He joined in the conversation and it kept on going that they lost count of time until Wren whom had refused to sit on the same table with them arrived and told them that it was late. “Where do you live?” Naya asked Jake. “The School dormitory.” he replied, already thinking of heading to the Bus stop so he would return to school. “Wren, please you will drop him off before you take us home.” She said and he nodded. Now on her feet, she began to walk behind him while Jake and Liam remained on the table for a while. Leaning towards Liam, Jake hit his shoulder lightly and with a bright smile on his face he asked, “Is she putting up this act?” “What are you talking about?” Liam replied with a raised brow.“Her behavior.” he said, hitting his palm against the table, he said, “I haven't seen a rich girl this humble before.
Rise Of The World's Overlord 75.Are you accepting the offer?
Chapter 75Liam still left his hand suspended until Naya who felt it was getting too dangerous since all gaze were now on him kicked him from under the table. “What are you saying to it? Are you accepting the offer?” Granny Elena asked. She was impatient waiting for his response but since she needed him, she tried not to throw a fit about it. Titling his head to the side, Liam dropped his cutlery and with his hands clasped his took in a deep breath. After looking around for a while, he snapped his head upwards. “Thank you Grandma, i appreciate your effort in trying to help me with a job but… I'm not an intern at AI technology.” He said, pressing his lips into a thin line, he tried to complete his statement only for Nathan to cut in. “Who do you think is dumb here? You better get a grip on yourself and stop acting overboard.” He snapped. “He thinks since Mr. Jones showed him around he is going to get a job there. After the internship, you still have a long way to go. Grandma is ju
