The Ingenious Liam Price 149: Back From Prison (II)
Avery was having a hangover the next morning because she drank more than half of a liquor bottle. She groaned as she rose from the bed because the harsh morning sun was penetrating through the windows and adding weight to her migraine."I thought about Liam to the extent I dreamed of him," she yawned and stretched at the same time.It was a Friday morning, and already past 10 AM when she stared at the wall clock."Shit," she hissed under her breath as she dashed into the bathroom to wash up. Ten minutes later, she rushed out wearing a bathrobe as she proceeded to blow-dry her hair."I'll bet those bastards are cooking something up this time," Avery spoke to her reflection in her dressing mirror."And Liam hasn't even written back to me. It's been four days since I sent him that letter. I wonder what's wrong with him."Someone knocked on her door, and upon thinking it was a maid, she permitted the door to be opened.In came a strange man, wearing an apron."Who are you?" Avery frowned
The Ingenious Liam Price 150: Back From Prison (III)
"You're late again," Charlotte muttered when Avery showed up at the conference hall.Avery slid into the power seat and put her hands on the table. She was overly confident."Have you forgotten I don't work for this company alone?" She inquired with a smirk."And that's one of the many reasons why you should give up already, this place isn't for you." Said Charlotte. While Hunter remained silent. He knew better than letting out a word, as he was yet to recover from what Avery did to him yesterday.He could not even look up to meet her eyes. And Avery scoffed before pulling back her attention to Charlotte."How's your car by the way? I'll take it that it's irreparable?"Charlotte made to speak up when Ted Price cut her short."Have you told Liam we'd like to visit him in prison, as a group?" "Visit who in prison?" This voice suddenly boomed through the hall. And they fastened their eyes to the door, where they saw someone clad in an expensive suit.He had gained more weight and was ba
The Ingenious Liam Price 151: Back From Prison (IV)
Later that afternoon, Liam invited the press corps over because he knew it wasn't over until his name was cleared. "What do you have to say about those photos, Mr. Price?""All fake, I never went to any prison," Liam lied, and then he maintained eye contact with Avery who in turn popped the buttons of a remote, and images were displayed on the LED TV. "I was in Tuscany, getting to know the place as I was to have my own winery there." Liam explained, "I wanted to know if my business could survive there. Because as it is known by everyone, research is required to devise strategies."The images on the screen showed Liam on a strawberry farm, and then a few more fruit farms with the locals. He was dressed like a farmer. Unbeknownst that it was actually Avery who went to Tuscany under Liam's name. She was the one in the pictures, and she edited the pictures herself and put Liam's face in place of hers.People believed this upon seeing the pictures. "So you mean someone was trying to rui
The Ingenious Liam Price 152: Unexpected News
"I can't do this anymore," Stevie-Lou took a step back from Liam, with her eyes glassy with tears."Are you breaking up with me?" Liam could feel his heart clenching tightly in his chest."It's something I should have done a long time ago," she was quick to catch a tear drop before it could slip down her cheek. And so she dried her eyes with the back of her palm before sniffing.Liam clenched his jaw. Indeed his feelings for her weren't the same as before, but he still cared deeply for her. "I just returned last night and we've not had the chance to talk things through. Don't do this," his voice came out ragged as he pleaded."Oh, I will," Stevie-Lou's voice was firm this time."Don't do this," Liam filled the space between them."Your life is already too complicated. You have your business to run which takes all your time. Never-ending enemies who keep attacking from every angle, a baby on the way with your not-so-ex-girlfriend. And this Avery woman who's like your backbone."Tearing
The Ingenious Liam Price 153: Meeting Charles Harrington
"This way," Liam was ushered into Charles Harrington's villa immediately after the dangerous-looking bodyguards searched through his body to know if he was carrying a weapon of any sort. As trailed after the butler in front of him, he noticed that these burly bodyguards were at his back, following suit. Their hands secured guns, something which indicated that they wouldn't hesitate to shoot if they sensed danger. The place wasn't safe at all for Liam, still, he wasn't afraid of anything or anyone. Charles Harrington sought his presence, that was the reason he showed up there alone, without bringing Big Tony along with him.They reached the garden after a short walk, there the gray-haired man was seen pruning the rose bushes with his gardening shears. He even had a farmer's hat on.The sight made Liam go down the memory lane of the time he worked as a Gardener for the Brewer family. "You sent for me," It was Liam's own way of announcing that he had arrived."Yes, you came quicker than
The Ingenious Liam Price 154: Laura Harrington And The Surprise Visit
Laura Harrington took her shades off and looked through the airport as she descended the airstair. Behind her, two bodyguards were rolling baggages which were obviously hers. She was about five foot ten, had long straight legs and it was certain she pursued a modeling career with the way she carried herself. Her shoulders were raised high as if she owned the world and Liam swiped his mouth with the back of his palm, curled his fingers into a fist, and bit into it as he observed her.No doubt she was breathtakingly stunning, clad in a short leather skirt, crazy net leggings, and boots. It was hard to not appreciate her good looks."That is your daughter?" Asked Liam. Although he already knew."You have a good eye, Liam Price. I can see you already recognize her," Charles stroked the beard on his chin."She's the only female who just hopped out from your private jet, it's not hard to recognize her," Liam added quickly, not willing to give the man the impression that he was smitten by h
The Ingenious Liam Price 155: French-kissing In Chaos
"How dare you!?" Aery hooked Liam by the collar and smacked him hard across the cheek.Charles and Laura Harrington had their jaws touching the floor from absolute shock.And Liam was beyond confused, even though his cheek pricked from the pain caused by the slap impact."How dare you do this to me!?" Avery yelled in Liam's face, and Liam was starting to think she was upset until she said."We're engaged to be married in two months' time, and now he's all over your daughter!?""What!?" Charles Harrington's eyes nearly pulled out of their sockets while his daughter still had her mouth flapped open in horror."My god! You already have a fiance!?" Laura finally exclaimed after getting a grip on herself."I tried to tell you," Liam directed this to Mr. Harrington. He didn't know what games Avery was playing, but he chose to play along."Impossible," Mr. Harrington thundered."I can't believe this is happening," Avery squeezed Liam's collar even harder, as she was yet to let go of him."Wh
The Ingenious Liam Price 156: Affection For Avery Duffer
“Put your gun down or I’ll order them to shoot,” Mr. Harrington barked this order at Avery. And Liam wondered what the hell she was thinking to aim her gun at the man’s daughter. Over fifteen men were pointing their guns at them, mostly her.“Have your men put their guns down first,” Avery ensured her voice was louder than that of Mr. Harrington, and the man was taken aback because he couldn’t see anything like fear in her eyes or her body language. She appeared as calm as ever as if the situation at hand wasn’t risky.“Are you trying to mess with me?” Mr. Harrington narrowed his eyes in their sockets.“I work for the CIA, Mr. Charles Harrington. You try to hurt Liam, then your daughter will suffer the same fate.” Avery sneered at Mr. Harrington without any ounce of fear.“I’m warning you,” Mr. Harrington gritted out after throwing a glance at his daughter who looked scared shitless.She pulled away from Liam and stood right in front of him as if she was trying to shield his body from
