Liana’s POVBruce Lawrence attempted to carry me up and he almost swirled me around but I quickly pushed him off me before he could even carry me."Are you sure that everything is okay with you? Bruce Lawrence?" I yelled at him while he kept that sheepish smile plastered on his face as he had a wide grin on his face."What do you mean is everything okay with me? Can everything be okay with me after everything that you did for me? You don't know that I owe you a lot. You are the only reason why Conan is being close to me" He grinned as his eyes widened in disbelief. I nudged him in the elbow. "Thanks to you as well that were able to act smartly before Conan couldn't decipher a thing that would make our plan become a total waste" I replied to him.His face contorted into a frown that made me wonder why since he was happy earlier. "What is wrong?" I questioned him."Do you know that you almost ruined things yesterday.Why did you suddenly appear when you knew you were not supposed to b
Conan's POVFinally, it was the day of the baby shower. The most excited person was no one other than Kayla who kept swirling in her pink flowery gown. The baby shower was going to be held at my parent's house.All the guests that I invited arrived at the party while I fixed my gaze on them as I stared at all of them from the indoor balcony. My face contorted into a frown when I caught sight of Liana who was smiling sheepishly with Bruce Lawrence.The mere sight of them made me recollect the day that the two had intentionally planned an accident for me.The more I thought about it, the more it left me in confusion about what their motive was. Were they trying to kill me or did they have anything in mind entirely?Liliana kept smiling as she raised her head and she kind of locked eyes with me. I quickly forced out a smile while waving at her as she waved back at me. Bruce Lawrence also caught sight of me as he lowered his head slightly in reverence for me.Liana attempted to come upsta
Liana's POVThe decorations for the baby shower event were out of the world. The fact that Conan took it upon himself to take care of all the preparations for the baby shower meant that he had planned something enormous. Because of the way, he invited Bruce Lawrence and everyone who cared to attend, I knew that he didn't have a good intention in mind.Plus, I was in for it because Kayla deserved all the worst things in this life and she would surely pay for all of her atrocities one by one.Kayla smiled sheepishly with herself as she exchanged pleasantries with people. Connor attempted to talk to her several times but she would ignore him and when I saw the sadness in his eyes, my heart broke for him.He didn't deserve what Kayla was making him go through! In fact, Kayla was the worst person on planet Earth, to think that she isn't even pregnant caused my blood to boil. All of a sudden, all the anger and hate that I held towards Kayla suddenly stopped as his scent wafted through my n
Chapter Liana's POVI blinked my eyes once again before turning to look at Conan even though anger clogged my throat just by the mere sight of her."I thought that you would love to see your family, so I invited them" He grinned to himself as if he had done something worthy of applause.He noticed the blank expression on my face and suddenly stopped smiling. "Wait, are you not happy to see your family? I thought that you would be extremely delighted to see them" Conan said cluelessly and the only thing I wanted to do was palm my forehead.Certainly, I couldn't blame him because what if he was just doing it for me? I wasn't annoyed with the fact that many parents were here, I was annoyed with the fact that Matilda was here!Why in the world did he even invite that witch here?I bit the corner of my lower lips and made to leave but he suddenly grabbed me by the wrist, staring right into my eyes."Do you not want to see them here? I thought that you would be happy. I guess that I should
Conan's POVKayla's eyes blazed with fury at where she was standing and to worsen it, she kept rubbing her hands in her baby bump while shaking her head vehemently.Her voice broke as tears cascaded down her cheeks. "They are trying to frame me again like always, that is not even my picture! Why can't you all just allow me to be happy for a day? Why must you ruin my happiness, I am pregnant with my child" Her voice was barely above a whisper as she ran her hands through her hair, scuffling it in the process.My gaze fell on Connor as he almost lost balance but was quickly held by Bruce Lawrence who stood beside him. Somehow, I felt pitiful towards him but I still felt that he deserved that.That was his Karma and it would be better if he had accepted it with whole heart."This is a lie and what the hell is this? You all can come up with something better than this! You should have known that I can't be taken down, I am pregnant and that is what it is" Kayla screamed at the top of her l
Liana's POVKayla's ear-piercing scream boomed through the air which came back as echoes in my mind. A wave of anger rushed through me as I held the prosthetic baby bump in my hands. I loathed her and loathed her with extreme passion because the lie and facade that she had put on for months had ruined a lot of relationships. The glint in her eyes showed that she wasn't even sorry about her actions as she ran her hands through her hair."You all, this is a lie, they have removed my baby and they are telling a lie against me," She yelled she was about to say another word when Connor rushed towards her in a dash and grabbed her by the neck."You ruined my life and now you dare to say all of this! Do you not feel pitiful towards me? If you hated me, why would you ever get down with me in the first place? Why would you even lie? Why would you plot something as huge as this? What the fuck is wrong with you and what is with your unhealthy obsession with Conan" Connor snarled at her and with
Conan’s POVI glanced back and forth at Kayla and Matilda in disbelief because I have always known from the very beginning that there was no way Kayla and Matilda didn’t know each other and that was one of the many reasons why I made sure that Arthur kept tabs on the two of them. But they were so smart to have hidden the fact that they knew each other but there could be a fact that Kayla was telling a lie since she knew nothing but telling lies and with Matilda in the picture, there was a high chance that whatever Kayla wanted to say had a great iota of truth. “What do you want from me, do I even know who the fuck you are” Matilda snarled, slipping her hands through her hair.Kayla clapped her hands dramatically. “Wow, wow, trying to act like you don’t know me when you and I are like the Yin and Yang that completes each other,” Matilda eyed her furiously before taking her gaze off her and darting her eyes to the reporters who had no idea about the side to even pick. Some wanted to
Liana POV"Blackmail?" I reiterated, exchanging fleeting glances with Conan who led me towards where the unending drama was taking place and with the way things were going on, things were just getting started. A smirk crept at the corner of Matilda's lips. "You see at this point, I have nothing to lose because all my secrets have been exposed and right now, yours would be exposed as well,"Matilda rolled her eyes to the back with her hands crossed over her chest and with the amount of confidence that she used in speaking, I deciphered that there was just really something between her and Matilda that must have given her so much courage like this.Kayla added. "In this revelation that I am about saying l, I wouldn't be leaving no one out, all the people that led me to this point of me faking my pregnancy would have their fair share of the blame," She turned to look at me with eyes blazing with fury.Kayla averted her gaze from me, glancing back at the crowd. "So, this news wasn't known
