The Ingenious Liam Price 15: Father's Funeral
Brandon Price's funeral took place the next morning, exactly three weeks after his death. He was a devoted catholic and so his coffin was taken into the church at first, for the priest to perform a procession before it was driven to the graveyard, which was two miles away. It was a private funeral, and only family members, relatives, and Brandon's friends were allowed to attend.Liam and the rest of the Price family were all clad in depressing black, mourning Brandon. A father, husband, brother, and friend.Liam seemed more than confident with his father's family. He ensured his black suit stood out and made him more noticeable than everyone else. He was being thrown hateful glances by Charlotte and Beatrice, then seeing the usual murderous glare on Hunter's face. Arthur looked like he wanted to speak with him but he could not because he was being watched by his mother. However little Georgie gave Liam a small smile and wheeled his chair toward his side."Mother doesn't like us speak
The Ingenious Liam Price 16: Caught Cheating
Instead of a meet-up after Brandon Price's funeral, Charlotte outdid herself by hosting a Post Funeral reception. Serving five-course meals that one would think she had long waited for Brandon's death so she could treat her guest exquisitely.It was a serve-yourself banquet and people were lining up to fill their trays with what they desired, as literally everything was on the large, unending table. Including seafood.Liam felt repulsed upon seeing the ten feet cake that stood tall on a table. It had a sticker of his father's smiling face and he wondered if it was appropriate because it seemed as though Charlotte was celebrating his father's funeral like a birthday party.Was she even thinking straight?Hunter couldn't even talk her out of the whole stupid cake idea?Liam made sure he didn't take a bite out of anything, instead, he drank from the water bottle that he had arrived with. And when his mouth felt bored, he ate minty sweets. His step-siblings were seated on a high table wi
The Ingenious Liam Price 17: Bits Of The Truth
Wait!Weren't Charlotte and Hunter supposed to be siblings?What the fuck was going on?They were at the point of having sex and it was something siblings would never do.Except Charlotte and Hunter weren't siblings.There and then, Liam figured out the truth. These two had fooled everyone into believing they were blood siblings.No wonder they always stared at each other long and deep.They were fucking and no one knew. To think everything was a lie.Charlotte kept her lover beside her and lied that they were siblings.Meaning the whole time Brandon Price was alive, Charlotte had been having an affair with Hunter, on their matrimonial bed. Because that wasn't the first time.Liam immediately backed away so he wouldn't be seen.He felt disgusted by Charlotte. To think he wanted to have a little bit of respect for her, even though she loathed him.Every day, secrets were revealed to Liam.The Price family had a lot going on.First, it was Uncle Benji who wanted to kill him.Now it was
The Ingenious Liam Price 18: Stevie-Lou
Liam spent the rest of his evening stalking red-hair. He felt bad upon seeing her stop at some corner and cry her eyes out. There was nothing he could do to fix her camera. It was a precious gift from her late grandmother. Liam understood how important it was to her. Liam knew it was best he left but he couldn't. He knew how it felt to lose something valuable. She was completely bold yesterday when she asked him questions in the studio. And now she looked completely broken and in tears, like a fragile little girl.Seeing her sniffing and wiping her face with the back of her arm, made him feel entirely sorry for her. He didn't know her name, just called her Red-hair or tomboy in his head.A few minutes passed and the girl was caught off by surprise when she saw Liam standing in front of her, holding an ice cream cone out to her."I told you to stay away?" Her cheeks reddened in embarrassment because it dawned on her that he had seen her cry."I just feel bad for making you lose your
The Ingenious Liam Price 19: First Day As CEO
"Welcome to The Price Enterprise!" Gibson's voice boomed through the mic and there was a balloon release on Liam before the crowd of employees burst into a round of applause and cheers."Thank you," Liam did a little wave with a genuine smile on his face. He was now the CEO of his father's company and it sort of felt like a dream. A week ago he was a gardener who was treated lowly and now he was the owner of a billion-dollar company. "I wasn't expecting this sort of welcoming," Liam toned down his voice as he made this known to his butler."They're elated and this is the least they can do."He had thousands of employees under him, people who would look up to him. And it was his duty to handle things rightly.The building was twenty-eight-story and was made of aluminum walls and had the 'Price Enterprise Logo.'Of course, Liam had seen this building countless times on his way to work at the Brewers. His father had the Price Car brand that produced quality cars, and then there were the
The Ingenious Liam Price 20: Shot In The Arm
It was evening and had been a hectic day for Liam because he went through reports from several departments and had his own task to do. Which wasn't so complicated for him because he had Gibson by his side for guidance.Employees were coming with gifts upon gifts which Liam politely declined and told them he'd host an event within the week.Liam met with Hunter on the first floor, when he was on his way out."Perhaps you should consider furthering your education rather than taking this position. I could fill in for you until you're mature enough."Liam almost rolled his eyes in their sockets."Don't you have anything to say to me?" Hunter stepped in Liam's way just before Liam could sidestep him."I do," Liam stroked his nose.And Hunter shot him a challenging look as he folded his arms across his chest, "well, let's see what you have to say,"Get out of my face," this was a quiet warning from Liam.Hunter let out an incredulous scoff at this."You should treat your elder with respect,
The Ingenious Liam Price 21: Genius Liam
Liam woke up by late morning, the following day. He found himself on his bed, shirtless, and with a bandage wrapped around the arm he got shot. There was still that burning pain but he couldn't feel the tiny hot weight of the bullet anymore. It had been removed.Avery was in the room instead of Gibson, she had her back to him as if she was up to something."What are you doing?" He questioned and immediately Avery wheeled around to face him. "Here, drink up," she handed him some painkillers and a glass of water. Liam downed the painkillers meds in one gulp and as he returned the bottle to Avery, he couldn't fail to notice the way her eyes raked at his upper bare body.He couldn't recall the last time someone stared at him that way.Feeling a bit embarrassed because it felt foreign, he rose to his feet to get a shirt and Avery upon sensing this, went to his wardrobe and got him what he wanted."I'll have it on myself," Liam told her when she tried to help him with it."No, you're no
The Ingenious Liam Price 22: Disguising
"I was kidnapped yesterday," Liam had his eyes fixated on Hunter when he made this known to everyone, and jaws dropped to the floor."It hadn't even clocked twenty-four hours as CEO of my father's company, yet someone disguised himself as my butler, drove me into a remote area, and shot me. I would have been a lump of dead meat by now." Again, gasps flew around the conference hall.Hunter took a rough gulp and remained silent. There was nothing he could do at this point but to avoid Liam's burning gaze. He knew he had been caught."That's too much to happen, you only just buried your father yesterday," "Who would want to kill him?""He was found last week and now they want him dead?"Liam was pleased to hear this from the members of the executive committee. "My kidnappers are still being tortured as I speak," Liam pressed another button and then an image of them was shown on the screen, "soon they'd confess and the real traitor would be locked in jail.""Perhaps you had enemies befo
