LianaEverything that was happening in my life looked like a dream and it was like something that I would never be able to comprehend. Was it that Conan had always had this side of him and I was the one who was too blind to see it? Was this how he has always been?I have always held myself in high regard for being smart but with the way things were going, it looked more like I was the dumb one here.I heaved an exasperated sigh, placing my hands on the door knob while hesitant to open the door at first but I mustered the courage to do that as I twisted the door knob and the door flung open instantly.I swallowed the heavy lump that formed in my throat as my eyes landed on his cold gaze that made his eyes crinkle by the corners. I expelled another sigh while he motioned for me to sit before him. I lowered my head as tears pressed at the back of my eyelids while muttering. “Father” He sucked between his teeth. “Honestly, Liliana? You could do better because I expected so much from you
Liana POVI stared around the empty room in shock not wanting to believe what was happening, how exactly had this happened? I took a step in, running my gaze around, who must have done this?With a hand on my face, I was hoping it was a nightmare that would get away immediately. I cleaned my eyes but it was stuck in there." Father" I called out to him, placing a hand on his shoulders, but he shrugged it off, bending below to pick up the letter which was neatly arranged and placed on the floor.How many enemies does he have that he had to go through? I wondered, the look on my father's face as he glanced through the letter broke my heart, I could see that he was having a hard time getting to terms with what had happened and soon, I knew it would." This is payback for stealing all of our gold bars, I hope that this meets you well. '' He read out loud, flipping the letter. My heart hitched when I saw the sign which was behind the letter.It had a small Viper sticker on the back of it.
Liana's POVI clenched my phone tightly, it has been days, days, and ever since Conan had accused my father of murdering him and I haven't heard from him.His silence was threatening and I wanted to know what he was up to, I just couldn't think straight because for him to go silent like this meant that something fishy was going on or maybe I was really overreacting.Sighing heavily, I stood up walking toward the window, closing the window pane, my father had left with the men ignoring all of my warnings and now, I was left all alone in here.I flipped the phone in my hands, my thoughts running wild, should I call? Would he pick up even if I did? I do not know what he was going to believe but after listening to what my father had to say, I knew that there was more to what he was told. He needed to know that also, but his silence." Arrrgh" I screamed angrily, I was tempted to scream at everyone who had done this. Conan would have to listen and make research also but at this moment was
Conan’s POVSitting before Arthur who paced back and forth, I couldn't help but lean in the chair as a smile spread across my lips. He exclaimed as he turned to look at me. “Alpha Conan, don't you think that this is too risky? We should get Kayla out? You and I both know that the evidence pointing to Kayla isn't only absurd but outrageous!” Arthur said with worry boldly written on his face. My face contorted into a slight frown as I swirled in my chair. “Haven't you taken risks? Haven't you entered the most impenetrable places? Plus you and me know that Kayla is the one taking all of the blames. What I want to do is to add more fuel to the fire. I have a feeling that Matilda wants to harm Kayla to cover for herself. You and I both know what she is capable of doing” I said while he exhaled sharply as his shoulder fell then he ran his fingers through his hair.“Honestly, Alpha Conan, I don't know what to say so what you are saying in essence is that I should make sure that Kayla gets
Liana's POVAs I walked through the police station, my mind filled with worry and confusion, one part of me strayed towards Kayla and the evidence that she told me that she had. Whatever evidence that she had had better be worth me coming here to the police station.On the other hand, the terrible accusations Conan had made against my father echoed in my thoughts, clouding my judgment and stirring up a whirlwind of emotions, and to worsen it I was scared of the fact that he hasn’t called me since the day that it all happened.His silence was scary and my only hope was for things to be fine. Since my father had told me about what had ensued, I guessed it was time for me to tell Conan the whole truth so that the enmity between them would end.All of a sudden, I paused on my track, my eyes almost popping out of its sockets. I couldn’t believe my eyes and I couldn't believe that Conan was standing before me.The fact that we had met again in this unexpected place, under such circumstances
Conan's POVThe police who stormed into the room gaped, his eyes almost bulging out of their sockets as he whispered and as his lips wobbled. "Conan, boss of Ming company" He gasped as his hands flew over his mouth while he glanced back and forth between me and Liana.He quickly lowered his head. "I had no idea that you were here, I mean silly me, how can I expect that someone like you would be here in the first place" He palmed his forehead as sweat formed on his forehead, almost trickling down his face.I raised a brow, squeezing Liana's hand tightly as I shot him a glare. "Don't you have manners here? you just barged in when I was doing something very important with my wife" I said, expatiating on the wife. Liliana attempted to speak. "Conan, you don't have to shut him off. Remember that this is a police station and not any other place, he has the right to barge in here and we are the ones at fault....." Before she could complete her statement, the police officer cut in."I am sor
Liana's POVI took in a deep breath despite the way that my heart had juddered in my chest. Different thoughts ran through my head and the only thing that I wanted was to escape that moment that I had found myself in.Conan stood behind me and his scent wafted through my nostrils, soothing the inside of me before placing my hands on the doorknob and pushing the door to the interrogation room open.As soon as I stepped foot into the room, Kayla jumped to her feet but she soon slumped back to the chair as soon as she caught sight of Conan who sauntered behind me with a smile creeping at the corner of his lips.Kayla glanced back and forth between me and him before she spoke. "Honestly, Liana, was it necessary to let him know that I am here? You could have just told me that you were going to be bringing him along and I wouldn't have bothered showing face in the interrogation room at all" She said, not taking her eyes off him as she glowered at him in anger.Before I could complete my sta
Liana POVKayla made me ponder so much that I didn't know when my father barged into my room. I jumped to my feet in fright and I was so shocked to see my father in my room and he was holding some sort of documents or something like that."These are the divorce papers, sign it and I would send it across to Conan. You must cut all ties with him because he isn't someone that you can be with and I wouldn't allow you to be with someone like that" He said while his words caused my heart to sink into my stomach instantly.The thing was after everything that had happened between me and Conan since the day that I saw him in the police station, I didn't want to divorce him. I felt that it was all something that could be sorted out and ever since that day, there has been one crisis to another and with the way things were going, if Conan asks for the amount of money that was entailed in case I breach the contract, I doubted that father would be able to pay such huge amount of money.Plus, I didn
