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

    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

    “You will do no such thing. Do you know who I am? If you try that shit with me, I'll deal with all of you." Tyler barked angrily. His raised voice caused the men to pause but they didn't leave Tyler's way.“Look, that man is just nobody. Why are you protecting him? He has no money to give to you but I do." Tyler brought out the one thousand dollars again and showed it to the man before him.“Here, you can have it and share it with the other guards." "We're not interested in your money. Just leave this place and stop making a fuss. Can't you see that you're creating a scene." “You're only embarrassing yourself." One of the men scolded him like he was a child and this further infuriated him.Tyler turned his face around and saw a few people at the place. They were watching the drama and waiting for action. If he tries to start a fight, they might start making a video of him. After glaring at the men before him, Tyler turned around and began to walk away.He was so angry at that mom

    Liam walked up to his wife and she paused from making the call. He also noticed that everyone was looking at them.When the other employees saw that Liam had noticed their stares, they lowered their gazes and concentrated on their work.“I was about to call Mr. Fabian, my landlord. Is there any problem?" Miranda lowered her hand and asked while giving him a suspicious look.Liam smiled sheepishly and shook his head. "No problem at all. Maybe you should just wait till we are on our way home." Liam was yet to call the man. He has to make Fabian cover for him or his cover would blow. Then Miranda would find out that he was lying and start asking many questions.She might even stop trusting him and that was the last thing he wanted.Liam was happy with the progress of their relationship. They were doing better than before and he was grateful.He was also hopeful that Miranda would one day confess her feelings to him.Liam could not wait for that day to come. He would take her to a nice r

    Liam finished with his call and came back to meet with Miranda.“Uh, Mira. You have to go ahead. I'll be with you shortly. There's something I need to take care of." Miranda remained silent for a while. She scrutinized Liam and snorted. “Ok, see you then." Miranda went ahead and got into the cab while Liam boarded another cab.While in the cab, her phone began to ring and she saw that it was Piper.Miranda rolled her eyes as she saw the caller's identity. Angrily, she ended the call and put her phone away. However, it continued to ring.Miranda refused to answer the call. It was pointless picking it because their conversation would not end well. She kept cutting the call but Piper refused to stop calling.Soon the cab got to her destination and she alighted and made her way to their apartment.Before she got to their door, the phone began to ring again and she decided to pick it.“What do you want?" Miranda asked Piper in a raised voice as opened the door and walked in.Her eyes met

    After the outburst of Patricia, Miranda expected her to flare up due to the response she got from her. However, Patricia remained calm for a while.After a moment of silence, she let out a sigh and continued to stare at Miranda. Maybe her husband was right. There was no need for her to force it. She'll just have to implement the plan she already has.“Look, Mira. I'm your mother and I know what's best for you. I also want you to have the best life and it's only Tyler who can give you that.”"You see, Tyler has been chasing after you for a long time now and he might soon get tired.”"I don't want to lose such a promising son-in-law who…”"Mom please, not now. I don't want to talk about Tyler. As you can see, I just got back from work and I'm already tired and hungry." “Since you didn't cook anything, I need to fix something for myself." Miranda didn't wait for her mother to finish and she cut into her words.She didn't have the energy for her mother's drama.At that moment, Miranda d

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.

    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

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
