The Ingenious Liam Price 64: Using His Authority
"Ma'am, your card is being declined," the female receptionist in front politely told Stevie-Lou. "Try it again," Stevie-Lou rasped out."Still the same result.""Shit," Stevie-Lou cursed lowly before leaving to meet with Liam and her brother who were quietly waiting a few feet away from her."What's going on?" The look on her face was enough to make Liam sense something wasn't right."My credit card is declining my payment," Stevie-lou informed them in distress, "what do we do now?" She whined.Liam tipped his baseball cap down so he could think. He hadn't shown his face in the Price Hotels before, he only received feedback from both the executive and financial manager.He wasn't planning on showing his face, too bad Stevie-Lou's card didn't work."Come with me," he said to Stevie-Lou and her brother."Why? I thought you wanted to hide until we leave this place? You don't want anyone to know you're Liam Price," Stevie-Lou couldn't understand his sudden change of plans.Liam rubbed his
The Ingenious Liam Price 65: Going Back
As expected, the hitmen were arrested. When the cops arrived in casual wear, they didn't even know what was going on until they were shown IDs, handcuffed, and shoved into the backseat of cars. All eight of them were outnumbered by the police. Afterward, Sinclair exposed Bryce Canon to the police with evidence he had gathered, including the murder of Stevie-Lou's colleague. He was trying to flee when the police caught him. "I can't thank you enough, Liam," Stevie-Lou was tearful after hearing this. It was exactly midnight when Liam narrated how everything went and she pulled him into a bone-crushing hug because he was like a savior to her.Liam let her hug him as much as she wanted, she had saved him twice and so he felt obligated to return the favor. Jake was in the background sniffing when they pulled away from the hug."The risks we took, my biggest fear was dying before my wedding," she blurted out and swallowed hard.Liam averted his gaze to the floor, put his fists in his pock
The Ingenious Liam Price 66: Just Like Soul Therapy
"Are you sure about this, young master Liam?""Yes, Gibson. Now do as I say, I want everyone at the conference hall in ten minutes."It was the next morning when they arrived at the Price Enterprise and they were in Liam's office. Gibson was skeptical about Liam holding a meeting because he felt Liam still needed some time to rest before he could face Charlotte and everyone who witnessed what happened two days ago.But Liam stood firm on his ground. He had plans for his company.Liam crossed his legs on his rotating seat, only to stare straight ahead of him and he saw the butler still maintaining his standing position. A doubtful look spread across his face."I know you're worried about me, Gibson. You don't want what happened the last time to repeat itself, and I promise it won't." A small smile pressed on Liam's face.And that was enough to make Gibson nod and leave.Hunter and everyone else weren't expecting Liam to arrive at the conference hall before them. They met him seated on h
The Ingenious Liam Price 67: Liam's Mistake Before The Wedding
It was finally the day for Ted and Stevie-Lou's wedding, a Saturday, so Liam worked from home. He contemplated attending the wedding with his cousin and the woman he liked. Ted, whose list he was topping as the 'least-liked, didn't invite him but Stevie-Lou did. Jake even called him the other night and stammered over the phone, asking him to show up earlier than everyone because he was a part of their family.No one knew how affected Liam was by this wedding. Chloe was his first love until she showed her true colors because of his condition, although Liam claimed over the interview that he would focus on taking after his father rather than relationships. But things changed right from the first day he bumped into Stevie-Lou.He thought she was a boy at first because of her outfit, only to have her cap fall off and he saw her red hair braided in cornrows before her face.She turned out to play a huge role in his life. Asked him the most questions at the interview with the press corps.
The Ingenious Liam Price 68: A Deadly Package For The Bride
Liam snapped back to reality and stifled laughter. He just let his thoughts mess with his head for thirty seconds. "You don't know how glad I am that you're here, Liam," Stevie-Lou hugged him once more before backing away and dabbing her eyes with a hankie."I could never miss your big day," Liam's hands itched to touch her but he only just balled his fingers into a fist. Starting today, he would refrain from giving her hugs or holding her hands. She was to be Ted's woman forever. He wondered why the world sucked so much. He had Avery who was waiting for him, ready to accept him with open arms. He liked her but not as much as Stevie-Lou. Too bad he never had his chance with her."I have something for you," Liam slipped out a white medium-sized envelope that was folded to fit in his pocket.With wide eyes, Stevie-Lou snatched it from him before he could even give her."Can you not wait until after the wedding?" He jammed his hands into his pockets as he stared at her with a smirk."N
The Ingenious Liam Price 69: Running Away With The Bride
Stevie-Lou was as pale as a ghost who had been through all hell and back, as she placed one unsteady footstep after the other, dragging her feet with her along the aisle.Images of how the security blew up kept replaying in her head, tormenting the shit out of her senses. She knew she would be scarred for life.His charred remains were in her glass of wine, across her dressing mirror, and on the floor. Patches of his navy-blue uniform, his cap that looked like it was eaten to half by moles.She was numb with her eyes puffy from tears and her face make-up free because she couldn't stop her sobs the whole time they tried to redo her makeup. Due to the way Ted knelt on the floor and begged her, she agreed to go on with the wedding. They took her into another room, took the blood-stained wedding dress off her body, and discarded it. She had her bath for the second time that morning and a new wedding dress was bought for her.Ninety-nine percent of the wedding guest didn't know about the
The Ingenious Liam Price 70: The Betrayal (I)
Liam didn't stop driving until an hour later when he reached the beach. He and Stevie-Lou were at least 97 kilometers away from Ted. It was miraculous that Stevie-Lou didn't cry during the whole drive, Liam could tell she was bottling up the emotions within her, by the way she sighed from time to time.The beach had a few people there, not as crowded as it was supposed to be. Liam and Stevie-Lou hadn't spoken a word to each other nor did anyone make a move to step out of the car. They were still inside and Liam still had his hands on the steering wheel.He could imagine the kind of pain she was going through; the explosion in her dressing room and then Ted's women.Liam felt the need to comfort her but he didn't know how to start, he was even scared that he might offend her.Seeing her like this just made him feel terrible for wishing she never loved Ted or wanted to marry him. It was the right thing but she was in pain. It could be that the deadly package was sent by one of Ted Pric
The Ingenious Liam Price 71: The Betrayal (II)
"I met Liam Price on the evening he buried his twin, Emily. After introducing myself to him and telling him about his real identity, he claimed Emily died of cardiovascular disease. But recently I just figured he's full of lies. He already knew about Brandon's death before I found him. Emily's doctor told me she was poisoned to death." It was the previous day's video of Gibson where he had gone live to expose the secrets of Liam Price, as he claimed.Liam could feel his body trembling as he kept replaying the video until Avery switched off the tv."You have to stop to protect your mental health."Liam gulped down the gigantic lump stuck within his throat. "That's not him. The video is edited.""No, it's not, boss. Your butler disappeared since yesterday afternoon," Sinclair chipped in.And Liam just turned away from everyone, with his palm resting over his face as he panted and puffed out heavy breaths. His heart kept jumping in his chest, as his shoulders continually rose and fell h
