Everyone thought Liam was lying, when he said he brought a gift for Mrs. Lopez, they thought he was just making up an excuse to leave the party and not come back, all to avoid being ridiculed anymore.But when Liam walked back inside with a nicely wrapped gift, they all had shocked expressions. They had all expected Liam to not come back after he walked out. But now he came back, and with a gift? Ignoring all the stares at him, Liam walked towards Mrs. Olivia Lopez, and nonchalantly handed her the gift, smiling faintly as he said, "This is my gift for you, grandma." With a smile, Mrs. Olivia Lopez darted her eyes to the gift in her hands, opening it, a look of surprise crossed her face when she saw what was inside the box, "Wow, I couldn't have picked out a better gift for myself if I tried." "Liam, thank you, you're very thoughtful." Mrs. Lopez thanked Liam sincerely. Looks of envy were plastered on the faces of Erin's siblings and cousins after hearing Mrs. Olivia Lopez praise L
Iris wanted to see Erin and Liam act as husband and wife for once, and so she kept on trying to make Erin look at Liam differently than she looked at him, by talking about how handsome Liam is.“Just look at the guy… he is so handsome." Iris teased, looking at Liam.Frowning, Erin looked at Iris, “Iris, stop it or leave the party!” She warned, glaring at Iris in annoyance.Iris sighed, "Do you really want me to leave?" She asked, making a sad face."Yes please, you're annoying me," Erin replied. A faint smile made its way to Iris' face, as she took a sip of her wine. "I'm not going to stop talking about him, and I'm not leaving here," Iris said jokingly.Furrowing her brows, Erin darted her gaze off Iris, she shifted her gaze and looked at Liam from his toes to his face, with a disgusted look. She didn’t care how Liam looked, he might dress better now, but to her, he was still the same person, and she despised him, a lot.And the feeling was mutual, Liam too despised her and her fami
The Lopez family members couldn't believe Mrs Lopez, she was out of her mind for wanting to select Liam and Erin as the co-vice presidents of their company. Liam was a nobody who leeched off their family for three months, so why would she think he was fit to run one of their companies? And Erin? She didn't care about anything except doing her acting, so giving her the vice president position was a bad idea.Liam too couldn't believe the old lady, he wondered if she was doing it because she trusted him, or was it because she felt pity for him? Either way Liam had no intention of running one of the Lopez's companies, he hated everyone, except for Mrs. Olivia, she was the only one who was actually nice to him, she was actually the reason he hadn't left, and was still at the party."Mom, you can't be serious, out of all the people, you choose him, he is not even family?" Lucy's father, Derick Lopez said, still in disbelief over what was happening. With a look of annoyance, Mrs. Olivia
"Liam, I'm not taking no for an answer." Mrs. Olivia insisted, with a smiley face.Liam just frowned, realizing that he had to leave, or she was going to keep insisting. Truth be told, Mrs. Olivia was acting weird, which was so unlike her."Grandma, no you can't, we don't accept your decision.""Yes, this is unfair, you can't pick someone who is an outsider to run the company, our company." Lucy said, feeling betrayed by her grandmother."Well, you don't have a choice, you'll have to accept my decision…. from today onwards Liam is Erin's Co-vice president." Mrs. Olivia Lopez insisted.Liam sighed exasperatedly. "I'm sorry, but I have no interest in running your company." Liam replied nonchalantly.Liam had no idea that Mrs. Olivia Lopez had figured out that he was close with the Danvers, and that's why she wanted him to take the role of co-vice president, but even so, there was no freaking way he was going to accept that position.How was he going to accept it, when it was the same com
"Mom, is everything alright? Is our family in trouble?" Robert asked, feeling stunned by what his mom recently said.It went silent for a moment as everyone was looking at Mrs. Olivia, waiting for her to give them a reply, but the reply never came, Mrs. Olivia Lopez didn't want to tell anyone what she had found out about Liam yet."Well, aren't you going to tell us?" Erin let out in annoyance."Yeah, you said our family is gonna go bankrupt, why is that?" The grandchildren asked, curious and confused. With the way their grandmother had been acting lately, it was like she was out of her mind, she was doing things and saying things that they couldn't understand.Mrs. Olivia looked at the guests, smiled faintly, and said in a reluctant tone, "I'm not in the mood to celebrate my birthday anymore everyone, sorry, and I also apologize for the earlier drama." Saying that she made her way up the stairs, with a dejected look.She was worried about her family. What if Liam decided to ruin their
Liam was stunned when he heard Karen's mother telling her that she should get to know him better before they get married. Since when have he and Karen been in a relationship? Did he just hear that right?"I don't understand anything, my marriage with her?" Liam asked, feeling bewildered, he looked at his mom, waiting for her to give him an answer, but she just diverted her gaze away. Liam's mom wanted to wait until Liam got divorced, and then she was going to tell him about the marriage she had arranged with Karen. She wasn't planning on telling him about that, not until he was finally divorced from Erin.But Karen's mom brought it up In Front of him, which was not part of the plan."Um, we haven't told Liam about it yet, Grace."Liam's mom said to Karen's mom, shifting her gaze to glance at Liam who had a confused expression all this while.Liam just remained quiet for a moment, waiting for his mom or anyone to tell him what they were talking about."And he is still married, so the t
A scoff escaped Erin's red lips as she replied, "In your dreams, come here quickly?" Erin demanded.She was seated on the dining table with her family members, and the phone was on a loud speaker, the family members also wanted to listen to her conversation with Liam.The family was worried about Mrs. Olivia, her behavior at the party was unusual, it was clear that something was bothering her, and they thought Liam might have an idea about what's bothering her, and that was the reason they asked Erin to call him and tell him to come to the mansion, so they can ask him questions about why Mrs Olivia was acting weird, but Liam also didn't know anything about that."Did you sign the divorce papers or what?" Liam asked coldly, wondering why she wanted him to come to her family mansion. "No, never, we don't get divorced until I say so bastard. What? Is One of your little girlfriends pressuring you to get a divorce." Erin replied mockingly.Liam was annoyed, after hearing that she was not
Looking over at Liam, seated on his leather office chair, Amanda replied to his question, "She wants to see the CEO, sir."Liam frowned even more, darting his gaze to look at the documents on the desk. Amanda just stood there by the door, waiting for Liam to tell her what to do next. He took a few seconds before telling Amanda what to do, probably he was thinking of what to do. He was tempted to go outside of the office and personally tell her to leave, and also he could show her that he was now a rich person."Tell her the CEO doesn't have the time to waste on the likes of her." Liam said, getting back to reading some documents. "And don't tell her about the identity of the CEO." Liam added, his gaze meeting with Amanda's.Amanda nodded slightly in affirmation, before walking out of the office.Liam sighed exasperatedly, as he sat back against his seat. He would have loved to show the evil woman that he was the CEO, but he figured he should do that some other time, right now he was
