"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

    When the call ended, Miranda turned to explain things to Liam but he waved off the matter."It's fine, you don't have to explain anything to me. Mr Sean is now like your business partner so you'd be getting a lot of calls from him.”"He said that Piper came around.” Miranda said to him and Liam pretended to be surprised."What! What did she go there to do? I hope she isn't trying to take the project away from you?" Miranda shook her head a few times and spoke in assurance.“Mr Sean promised not to let anyone else handle the project except me. He even dismissed Piper and told her to go home and forget about everything." Miranda patted her husband's shoulder and continued. “It's you who have always been giving me the motivation and drive. You're the last person who should be worried about Piper stealing the deal from me.”Liam nodded his head and the couple continued to walk to their destination. However, they were interrupted by a few familiar figures.Miranda tapped on Liam's once a

    Miranda had just remembered that Liam had stayed past his lunch break.A while later, Liam came back with two security guards. He had given them some tips beforehand and told them the nature of the things they'd be carrying.Without asking any questions, the men swept into action and helped the couple carry the things they bought.Liam also assisted and carried the things he could, and so did Miranda. When they got out, a cab was already waiting outside for them.The men packed up everything in the car and Miranda brought some money to give to them but they declined.“Keep your money, Ma'am. Your husband has just tipped us handsomely.”Without another word, the men left the couple and hurried back to their duty posts. However, Miranda stood speechless and gaped at her husband.Her hands were still stretched out.The cab driver got impatient and pressed the horn hard.“Come on, guys. I haven't gotten all the time to waste. If you're not ready to leave, then take your things off my cab.

    Liam had earlier noticed the black car that was parked downstairs. However, he didn't pay heed to the occupant. He didn't notice any suspicious activity as well. Moreover, there were other cars that were also parked beside it.Miranda's new office was located at the first floor of the storey building.After Liam had stayed by the window side for a while, he went back to meet with his wife who was sitting down and pressing her phone.Since they had finished setting everything up, she decided to go through her website to see the applicants.Just like she anticipated, a lot of people had applied. In fact, the number of applicants exceeded her expectations. They would be coming for an interview the next morning.As Miranda lifted her face, it met with Liam's gaze.“I didn't expect a lot of people to apply for the job vacancies I placed. They'd be coming tomorrow, how do I interview all of them?" Miranda was worried that it'll be too much work for her.“Have you forgotten that your husban

    Piper turned around and walked back to meet up with the man. “I didn't forget about that." She sighed and took out her phone from her leather handbag.She tapped on a few buttons and the man's phone beeped. It was an alert of the money she had sent.Since she had earlier done a transaction with the number, it was still saved in her phone.“Thank you Ma'am, I just got my money. It's nice doing business with you. Don't forget to call me next time you have any other job." The man said to her before walking away.His business with her was done and there's nothing else he'd be doing there.He was open to any job but not the very dirty ones that'll put him behind bars.As he walked away, Piper followed behind him but remembered something so she called out to him.The man who was about to get into his car had to pause.“Yes, Ma'am." Piper walked up to him and instructed. “I need the hard copies of all the pictures you took. But in the meantime, you have to send the soft copy to me. I almos

    Miranda was completely speechless as she gaped at the lady before her. “Don't listen to her, honey." Liam reached out and held Miranda's hands while shaking his head.“That's the truth, pretty lady. Your husband or whoever he is to you, will suck you dry. He will drag you down to his level and leave you with nothing." Neo added and further infuriated Liam.At that moment, he had lost his appetite and so did Miranda lose hers.Angrily, Liam stood up from his chair and hit Neo on the chest.“Look Neo, I've taken too much from you. If you don't mind your business now, I'll surely deal with you." Because of the chaos their disagreement had caused, they had brought attention to themselves.Neo had angrily slapped Liam back on the face. When he tried to fight back, Miranda quickly held him back.“It's not worth it. You don't have to bring yourself to their level. They're obviously troublemakers." Miranda could now see the reason Liam minded his business. He didn't want to talk to Neo be

    With jaws dropped, Miranda gaped at the people giving them a cold gaze.Lady Mary, Piper and her parents were seated on the Sofa. They were waiting for Miranda and Liam to come back home.They didn't want to put a call across because the couple would know that something was amidst. For that reason, they might not come back home that night.Every member of the Westons were marveled at how close the couple were becoming.Liam exchanged looks with his wife and reached out to hold her hand.“You don't have to be afraid, you haven't done anything wrong. You're only standing up for yourself and trying to grow." Liam whispered to her.It was a way of trying to give her some courage.Looking at Miranda, she was already afraid. Her heart was pounding chaotically at the sight of the dreadful old Lady before them.The couple soon walked up to them and greeted them.“Lady Mary, Mum, Dad." Piper was irrelevant to them so there was no need acknowledging her presence.Without a word, Lady Mary stoo

    Outside the door, Patricia continued to hit it so hard. “Liam, I said you should open this door now. I know that you can hear me so it's best for you to open up now." “Come on honey, just let them be. Maybe we can talk about this tomorrow morning." Eric held onto his wife and began to take her away.The next morning, Liam woke up to the ringing of his phone. It was Sean who was calling him.The previous day, they had a serious conversation and Sean was to help him to find out something.Liam wanted to deal with Tyler and it would affect his business.Tyler was the CEO of their family hotel ‘Graham five star hotel’. Liam had an intention of running it down.He was going to build a bigger and a better hotel besides it and take away all of their customers.Liam already had everything planned out and had sent Sean to check properties around the place. If there were someone willing to sell theirs, they'd buy it and tear down the building.Liam had passed by the place and seen that there w

    “I can't believe that you just said all that, Dad." Miranda voiced out in confrontation as she glared at her father, still shaking her head.“We both know that you've never done anything to stand up for me before. This isn't the first time they're treating me badly but you never get to do anything." Eric turned to stare at his daughter before replying.“You're my daughter and there's no way I'll let anyone treat you badly.”“It's just that you only listened to Liam and decided to go against your family. Why do you have to steal the contract that belonged to the family company?" With her mouth open Miranda gaped at her father and turned to look at Liam.Her father's words were nothing to write home about. How can such a man be her father when he doesn't even see that she was being treated unjustly by her own family. The family of her uncle.Eric's words sounded like he was supporting his brother and the family. That was really unfair.“Are you really my Dad?” Miranda questioned when

    "Don't listen to them. Now that I'm here, they can't do anything to you anymore.” Liam assured her while tucking some of hair behind her ears.As the couple stood there conversing, they pretended not to notice the people glaring at them.Piper, Allison and their parents were visibly fuming at that moment.“Liam, are you deaf? I said you should get the hell out of this place." Lady Mary barked at him.“Yeah, you heard lady Mary. Leave this place immediately." Piper added.“Ofcourse, I'm leaving with my wife. Moreover, who wants to stay in such a place that only gives off negative energies." Liam left them dumbfounded with his response. He scrutinized everyone and turned to his wife.“Come on, Mira. Let's get out of here." With her left hand tucked into his arm, Liam led the way as they started towards the door.As the couple walked out of the place, Piper and her family were completely speechless.While they were headed to the door, they heard fast footsteps behind them.

    Miranda would be going to the Villa to see the Old Lady and he needed to be by her side, supporting her and preventing her from being bullied.Swiftly, he commanded the driver. “Take me out of here, immediately." Liam dialed Miranda's number and it kept ringing without being answered.At that moment, he believed that Miranda was already at the Villa.“Hurry up and drive me out of here." When Liam left the place, Neo was still lying on the ground. For a while, he remained at the place and could not move.Neo was still trying to comprehend what just happened.Liam beat him up like a child and he could not fight back.He couldn't even lay a hand on Liam throughout the fight. It was just like Liam was invincible.His thoughts kept drifting away in search of the solution to his current predicament. What was he going to do with Liam? And who was Liam, anyway? The man who just beat him up and walked away freely.He even has some men with him who looked like they were taking orders from h

    Neo was no longer taking the kidnap seriously because he saw Liam. He believed that everything was a joke.With his hands on his waist, Neo stood face to face with Liam and began to laugh.“Wow, Liam. I'm really happy for you at your new job. You didn't tell me that you joined a circus." “Seriously, I must commend you on this new feat." Neo ran his eyes around all of them at the place. He returned his gaze back to Liam and continued to tease him.“This costume you got is really dope. It looks so different from the regular circus costumes." “Tell me Liam, what is the name of your group and what do you guys do?" Liam remained silent and only watched Neo continue to make a fool of himself.He then turned around and glanced at his guards before turning his face to meet with Neo's gaze.When he saw that no one was saying anything, he kept a serious expression and inquired.“So tell me, Liam. Why have you brought me here? Is there something you want from me.”"Yes, I want something from

    Everyone in the car got ready for the action ahead. They were waiting for Neo's car to drive by.Neo, on the other hand, had no idea that he was being targeted.As usual, Neo got into his car and was about to start it. Unfortunately, he did not inspect the car before getting into it.Well, that has never crossed his mind before because he felt he had nothing to fear.As soon as he was about to start the car, he noticed that someone was in the back seat. The man was wearing all black clothes and also had a mask on.He pointed a gun at Neo and he was about to yell but was shut up.“If you shout and draw attention here, I'll blow your brains off. Think about it before making your next decision." The man threatened him in a very serious voice and Neo saw that he meant business.He was so in trouble. Who could have sent someone after him?As Neo's thought about the situation, he could not place his hands on anyone who he had offended.Carefully, he tried to reach for his phone while askin

    For a moment, Liam said nothing. He was thinking about what his wife just said.It was a ploy and he was sure of that. They might try to get her to transfer the project funds to them.Moreover, she was only one person and they were more than one.What if they convince her and were able to change her mind.Liam was the only one standing by Miranda's side. Even her parents could not do anything for her.They were like Lady Mary's puppets, doing what she told them to do.Liam reached out and took Miranda's hand, locking their hands.“Don't worry, they won't be able to do anything to you. No matter how hard they try, they'll never succeed." Liam assured her and she nodded her head.She was grateful for having someone like Liam in her life.“Just let me know when you'll be going over to the Villa.”"I will.”Miranda's intention was to go over later in the evening.After they were done at the place, everyone dispersed except the couple.Liam had spoken with Bruce the previous night and he h

    If Lady Mary does pick Miranda's call, they'd be busted. Miranda would find out about their lies.The Old Lady was never sick. The sisters had to make the story up at that time.They wanted to get Miranda to come over to the Westons' Villa.If she comes, it would be easier for them to convince her to hand over the project to Top Notch.When the phone rang many times and no one picked, Miranda stopped calling and glared at her cousins before commenting.“She didn't pick the call, I might go and see her later." Miranda was left with no other choice but to agree to go and see Lady Mary.Piper and Allison sighed in relief when they heard the words.“You two can go now, I don't have any business with you anymore.”Although the girls were angry at Miranda's insolence, they were able to pull themselves together and made their way to the car.They kept cursing her in their minds and wished that those guards didn't show up.Piper and Allison would have pounced on her with the anger that was i

    “Alright, we'll talk soon." Liam replied back at him and patted his back.“You can go now." While Sean drove off, Liam went back to join the others. They took time going through each of the buildings that it was almost lunch time and they were not yet done.Liam went closer and whispered to Miranda. “It's almost lunch time, let me go and get something for us to eat.”"Why don't you wait so we can go together?” Miranda suggested but Liam insisted.“Don't worry, I'll be back before you know it. I'll also buy something for everyone so don't worry about them.”Liam began to walk out of the place but Miranda called him back. She opened her bag and took out some money.“Here, buy lunch with this. I'm sure you don't have enough money to buy for everyone, so use this." Liam stared at her for a while and shook his head. “You don't have to worry about the money. It's just lunch for a few people's mouth and I can afford it." When Miranda tried to insist, Liam told her not to worry and began t

    "What? How is that possible?” Miranda could not believe her ears nor her eyes.How could Mr Sawyer just give her a Van when she was just doing her job. All he owed her was to provide the funds for the project.How come he was giving her company a Van?“He noticed that you didn't have a car so he felt it was necessary to get one for you. At least, for the cause of this project." Miranda would not have believed everything that was happening if she hadn't gotten the funds.She would have thought that everything was all a dream.About 80 percent of the funds have been transferred to her so she'd be starting the project immediately.Without another word, Miranda covered her mouth and walked over to inspect the Van.It was a new one, big enough to contain all of them.“Wow! Wow!! Wow!!!" As she inspected it, she could not stop expressing her shock.Lifting her face, she glanced at her employees who were still standing at the place waiting for her orders.“Mr Sawyer got us a Van, go ahead
