Liam believed that it was just the beginning of Kimberly's misfortune in her husband's house.Bernard had lost a few deals and took it out on Kimberly. He was frustrated and Kimberly got in his way so he beat her up.Kimberly had known that her husband had a beasty part but she chose to stick by him because of his wealth.“I'll be right back." Miranda swiftly stood up from her seat and made her way out of the diner. She was hoping to meet her sister outside.Surprisingly, she was still in her car.Kimberly had rushed outside when she saw Liam walking into the restaurant. However, she decided to stay a little longer in her car.Moreover, she had no idea where else to go. Who would she moan her grievance to?Miranda rushed to her car and opened the door of the passengers' seat. She got in and got Kimberly giving her a confused look.“What are you doing here?" Kimberly asked her. “Shouldn't you be with your doting husband? Perhaps, you can watch him while he enjoys his lunch." “Come on
"You'll have to quit that job of yours and join me. What do you think?” With a bright smile on her face, Miranda waited in expectation for Liam's response.She hoped that he'd not turn her down. Liam would surely make a great assistant or even partner.Liam gave her a loving stare and squeezed her hand before replying. “Anything for you, Mira. For the sake of my love for you, I'd do just anything." Miranda was speechless. She only blushed a little and turned her face away for a while.She fed her eyes with the views at the streets they passed by. After a moment of silence, Miranda turned her face around and her eyes met with Liam's doting look.“I mean every word I just said. I'd do anything in my power to make you happy." Liam continued and got the cab driver eavesdropping. He was stealing glances at the couple from his rearview mirror and smiling to himself.The man was admiring the love Liam shared with his wife. However, he didn't interfere. He just kept calm and let the couple b
Tyler was not happy with Miranda's utterances. She had really changed a lot.She was now prioritizing Liam and was scared to get him angry.In the past, Miranda was not this concerned about how Liam felt. He used to throw demeaning words at Liam even before Miranda and she'd do little or nothing about it.Miranda was not good with the way others were maltreating her husband. However, there was nothing she could do about the situation.There was no way she could cover their mouth. They have months and are entitled to their opinions.After thinking about Miranda's change in attitude, Tyler said nothing about it.He decided to state his mission.“Um, I…” Tyler wanted to ask Miranda about what he heard the last time at the Westons' family villa.He wanted to find out if Liam was indeed Mr Sawyer who owned the LR real estate company. Perhaps, it could be the reason Miranda was now treating him better.After thinking about it, Tyler waved off the thought. He shouldn't have thought about it
At ‘Eat healthy diner’, Liam held in his hands a tray which contained the orders of a young couple and proceeded towards their table. The couple were engrossed in their conversations while waiting for their meals to arrive. Upon reaching the table, Liam tilted himself to serve them but was stunned to hear the young lady scream out in terror when she stared at his face.“Miss, what's the problem?” He asked her with furrowed brows, concern evident on his face. However, the young lady swiftly rose up and sought refuge in the arms of her lover.“Take me out of here please. I can't stand that ugly face. He's so disgusting.”The man, who was also confused, lifted his head and his gaze met with Liam's. At that moment, he understood what was going on and the reason for his lover's reaction.“How can such a beasty looking man be a server? Honey, come on, let's get away from here.” The young lady continued to demean Liam as they hurriedly made their way out of the diner. While the little drama
Lady Mary approached the little crowd in full grace and luxury. Each step she took, a testament of her power and position in the family.As she alighted the stairs in her purple gown, a bunch of expectant eyes fell on her. Liam was wondering what was going on in the mind of the old lady. Would she be standing up for him this time?From the corner of his eyes, Laim saw his wife casting him a puzzled look. She had seen him bring out his suit he intended to put on for the occasion. Unfortunately, she had to hurriedly leave before her husband and was stunned to see him in a casual outfit which was already worn out.“Why do you always bring shame to this family?” Lady Mary finally spoke in a voice devoid of any emotion. “Hahaha.” Piper and Allison let out a dry chuckle from where they were seated.“It's such a shame that our beloved cousin, Miranda, has refused to part ways with such a disgrace.” Piper mocked.“I'd rather remain unmarried than get entangled with such a good for nothing ma
At that moment, Liam's eyes flew wide open and his jaws dropped. “Is that you, Mr Bruce?”Although Liam didn't grow up at home, he could easily recognize the voice of his father's butler. The man often calls him when he was still living with his late Aunt. Unfortunately, the last call he got from Bruce was a distressing one. His father suddenly went missing and Bruce asked him not to go home yet. He was afraid that the people who kidnapped his father might come after him. Bruce's plan was to find Richard Sawyer before calling Liam home.“Yeah, it's me, Bruce. Your father has asked me to call you to come back home.”“What really happened to him and how did you find him?” Liam was curious and kept throwing questions at the man.“You need to calm down, young master. Your father is resting right now and will explain everything to you when you come around tomorrow.” The man replied to him with a voice that conveys his high spirit. He must be so elated to finally see his boss come back in
With his left hand still on his cheek, Liam let out a dry chuckle and turned to see Tyler sneering at him.“Go on and apologize.”As his face scanned all the faces around, Liam could see their disappointed looks. No one seems to be on his side. Lady Mary was staring at him as though she wanted to kill him with her eyes. Liam could also see Kimberly giving him a dirty look. His cousins in-law and their parents were at a place laughing over the whole matter.At that moment, the atmosphere at the place was very tense.“It's ok, I'll apologize on his behalf.” Miranda's words cut through the tense atmosphere and she could see many disappointed gazes.“What?” Patricia was more disappointed in her younger daughter.“Mira, come on. Let him apologize for his misdeeds.” Hailey's voice was heard as she tried to stop her friend from standing up for her husband.“Yes, stop tolerating his excesses. Let him apologize. Remember Tyler had promised to help you in your business. If your worthless husband
Liam paused his words and stared at his father's face as if searching for something. When he saw the amazement in it, he continued.“I'm a live-in son-in-law and won't be coming home yet. My wife is good to me but my in-laws are the worst people ever. I really want to teach them a little lesson before revealing my identity to them.”“And I also want to know if my wife will fall in love with me.”Richard let out a chuckle and nodded in understanding. “What's their family name?”“They are the Westons and it was the late Ryan Weston who got me married to his granddaughter because I saved his life. Although I agreed to the marriage because I fell in love with the young lady in question.” Liam explained and saw that his father was silent.After a long pause, the man responded. “Ryan Weston was a good man. Well, I'll leave you to do your thing.”Richard made his way to the door. “Everything I own is yours and I'm sure you'll expand them. Make your Dad proud.”“Sure Dad. Thank you for your u
