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.

    “Indeed." Allison scoffed and walked up to Liam, standing before his face.After Aura Cosmetics rejected her, she hasn't gotten a single deal. Not even a small one.“Piper just dared you to call the military so what are you waiting for? Go on and call the military.”Without a word, Liam took out his phone to dial a number but Piper snatched the phone from his hand.“What do you think you're doing? You think that the police will come running here because you called. For your information, you're nobody and no one will listen to you.”Liam snatched back his phone and wanted to shove her away but restrained himself.He rushed towards Miranda to inquire about her.“Honey, are you ok? Did they harm you?" Miranda nodded her head. “Piper slapped me and when I wanted to retaliate, they teamed up against me and were about to beat me up. If you didn't come just on time, they would have actualized their plan.“Aww! Such a sweet couple. She's reporting us to her darling husband." Allison spoke wi

    "Yes, Boss.” They replied but Liam still kept a straight face as he continued to dish out instructions."You're going to make sure that my wife is always safe at all times. If you see anyone trying to cause trouble, you know what to do.”"Yes, Boss.”"Now, get to work, all of you.”As the men dispersed, Liam turned around and began to walk back to the office. He heard a familiar voice but didn't turn around.It was his troublesome mother-in-law. She had followed him to the place but missed her way. Fortunately, she passed by that route and saw Piper driving away in a hurry. When she turned to look at the place they were coming out from, she saw Liam talking to some hefty men.At first, Patricia was confused and was a little terrified. A lot of negative thoughts came to her but she waved them away and decided to approach Liam.There was no way that those men were working for Liam.I mean, he was just her pathetic live-in son-in-law and not a boss.Only a billionaire boss that has all

    The place fell silent for a while before Liam sighed deeply and drew closer to stare at his wife's face for a while.“Since you want to know how I did it, I'll tell you." “Well, I'm listening, so hit the nail on the head. You know that I'm very busy right now." Miranda snapped at him.“Ok, I only snapped my fingers and they appeared before me. That's just it, I didn't do much." Liam joked as he demonstrated the action and saw the disappointed look on Miranda's face.“You've got to be kidding me." Miranda shook her head a few times. "Be serious, Liam.” Miranda glared at him and he decided to stop fooling around."I called the owner of this renting space and told him about our current situation. He promised to do something about it.”"We were still standing outside when those men showed up before us and told me who sent them." “Really?" Miranda seemed to have believed him.“Yeah, that's just it. You needed to see how your cousins fled for their lives when they saw the hefty mean look

    Diana hesitated before walking up to Miranda. “Please, have a seat." Miranda pointed to a seat before her and asked the others to excuse them.As the duo sat face to face with each other, Miranda stared intently at her but she got ashamed and looked away.“Relax, I don't bite. This is an interview and I want you to free yourself and concentrate on it.”Diana lifted her head a little and nodded slightly.“Alright, Ma'am." When the interview began, Diana was flowing smoothly but Liam soon came to the place and she became uncomfortable.Liam sat down on the chair next to Miranda who tried to make a gesture at him.Miranda wanted Liam to leave the place because she noticed how uncomfortable Diana had become.

    Sean just remembered what Liam had told him before. He wanted to deal with Tyler Graham. It was the reason he wanted to build a hotel close to Graham five star hotel.Liam had told him a lot of things about Tyler. How Tyler had been demeaning him because he thought Liam was a pauper.He had also been ferociously chasing after Miranda even though they were still married.“Oh, you're Tyler Graham." Sean brought forth his hand and shook Tyler's hand.“It's nice to meet you, Mr Sean." Tyler looked so excited as he shook the man's hand.He was only being very friendly because he wanted to learn something from Sean.“I'm sorry for taking up your time. Please, can you spare me a minute or two. I'd like to ask you a question." Sean checked the time on his gold wristwatch before replying to Tyler. "Sure, you just have to be snappy about it. So what is it that you want to learn?”"I mentioned earlier that I want to be close to Mr Sawyer. Is there a way you can make it possible?”"I'd really li

    Tyler could not believe his ears. Miranda's employee was being rude to him.Indeed, she's grown wings and is now defying his order. For a moment, Tyler remained silent with his head cocked. He was so furious at that time and suddenly thought of Liam's words.Miranda was now so busy and would no longer have his time.Does it mean that she was no longer working at the diner? Maybe they were right. If Miranda was at that place, she would have ran out to know what was happening.She would surely talk to him.When Clara saw that Tyler was not saying anything, she walked out on him, further infuriating him.How would have dragged her back and given her a dirty slap if it weren't for the people around there.There were some customers at the place and he wouldn't want to make a fool of himself before everyone.After sitting there for a while, Tyler stood up and began to walk out of the place.When he got to his car, he put a call across to Patricia.She'd surely tell him where to find Miran

    Tyler followed the address given to him by Patricia and soon arrived at the place.He drove into the garage and parked his car. When he came down, his eyes fell on four hefty and mean looking men parading the place.They seemed to be guarding the place but from what?Tyler could not comprehend why there were people who looked like bouncers at the place.Was that the reason Patricia told him to be careful?Well, those guys didn't know who he was. If they find out, they'd fall on their feet and give him all the respect he deserved.After watching from a distance, he began to approach one of them. Atleast, they'd give him the direction to Miranda's new office.Standing before one of the men, Tyler introduced himself to him.“Hello, my name is Tyler Graham, the CEO of Graham five star hotel." The man glanced at him and nodded. “Ok, Sir. What can I do for you?" Tyler adjusted his suit and rubbed his hand on his jaws before he continued.“I'm looking for someone who has just opened a new

    Patricia and her husband exchanged glances and said nothing afterwards. What could they possibly say?Liam had just confronted them and they only kept wondering where he got the nerve. Indeed, a lot of things were changing and Patricia thinks it's time to do something about it.She had instructed Liam to be sleeping in the sitting room. However, he was now inside Miranda's room.What if he defies her order?She turned to her husband, glanced briefly at him and stood up to go to the kitchen.Although she had lowered the intensity of the heat, her food was already burning.Patricia put off the fire, dished out some food for herself and her husband. The only one left on the pot was Miranda's portion.After she served the dishes on the dining table, she called out to her husband.“Come on, Eric. Let's have dinner.”While the old couple ate, Patricia looked out for Miranda to see if she'd come out but she didn't.After her meal, she decided to go and knock on the couple's door.“Miranda d

    “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.

    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
