“My lawyer will bring the divorce papers tomorrow and you can sign it. Once it's a month, I will have it delivered to the court." Liam explained with calmness. “Fine, but you will have to act according to my rules now," I said, and Liam looked at me with eyebrows furrowed. “I have conditions I would like you to pay keen attention to it." Liam didn't pry too much, and instead, he told me to go ahead. “Okay. I would like to have my separate room." “Fine," Liam agreed without batting an eyelid. “I don't want to share meals with you or anything. I will walk the way I want and do everything I want in my way." “Accepted," Liam replied. I released my hands under my bosom and clasped them together. I bit my lips in nervousness and braced myself. I'm no longer a teenager. “I don't want us having s*x," I said, looking at the wall. A blush crept to my cheeks which made me shut my eyes tight, muttering some curses under my breath. * * * * * * * * Emily had an arranged marriage to Liam Nolan, the ruthless billionaire in Los Angeles. Although she always had a crush on him Liam never recuperated her feelings. Despite the love she has for him, Liam didn't hesitate to treat her like trash. Betrayed by her sister, Emily's life was cruelly cut short. However, she was granted a second chance and this time, Emily swore to not repeat the same mistake she made in her past life. What happens when she realizes her ruthless husband has no intention of letting her go in this lifetime? Would she find the strength to break free, or would Liam's relentless pursuit rekindle the flames of their passionate yet toxic love?
View MoreI smiled when I found myself running wild in the field of flowers while Xavier continued to laugh while a man chased him. I couldn't picture his face, which made me assume this was a dream. A dream I never wish to wake up from.However, I felt something move beside me. At first, I thought I was still in the dreamland, but then something hard poked my thigh, and my eyes fluttered open. I was greeted by the sunlight that shone through the glass wall. Inhaling the smell of mint into my nostrils, my eyes became wide open when I realized what was going on. I looked beside me and saw Liam's face snuggled inside my neck like a fucking parasite as if he was going to suck me dry.How did we end up in this compromising position? His eyes fluttered open, and I lost my cool but not my confidence. He was surprised to find himself beside me.”Morning, Emily" Liam said, his morning voice deep and husky, which made me realize I rarely get to listen to Liam's morning voice while we were together.He
Liam hid a smile between his lips; he raised the fork and chewed the meat on it slowly. I can't believe Liam is smiling right now. Even if it's just for a short moment, I saw it.“It was fun to see you all cooped up inside the wardrobe. Was it fun watching us too?” Liam asked, his voice filled with malice.I scoffed, dropping the fork in my hand as I shot a dead glare at Liam. “Why do you think I was looking for you?” I asked Liam with my eyebrows raised at him.“I saw you, and it felt as if you were about to cry,” Liam replied, pushing my buttons.A laugh actually bubbled out of me like music. “In your dreams,” I said and carried the plate with me. I stood up and left Liam's side, not in the mood to listen to him again when I was supposed to be eating.He didn't say anything more when I left his side and sat down on the bed to eat my food. I was done eating but to sleep right now was the problem. Looking at Liam's way, he was still sitting on the couch with a glass of wine in his han
Woah. I can't believe girls can be so blunt like this. Even when I was crushing on Liam in the past, I never openly confess my feelings. But girls these days are now bold and Georgia is no exception. She never hesitated to go after what she wanted. Georgia let the thin strap of the dress fall off her shoulders, showing off her cleavages. Her smouldering eyes watched Liam with intrigue. The girl is a great seductress but I doubt Liam will be interested when all he wanted was Aysel all these while. I scoffed inside the closet, wondering why I even was here in the first place. “Why are you looking at me that way Liam?" She asked, but I couldn't see Liam's expression because his back was actually facing me. Reading Georgia's expression is actually fun. She will give up sooner or later but she wasn't hurt yet. ”I told you I miss you. Won't you even ask me how I got to know you are here?" She asked with her forefinger in between her lips. She must have followed Liam. The girl is inde

The hotel staff served the food inside the plate and left. Liam sat on the couch and made himself comfortable. He didn't bother to call me as he picked up a fork and a spoon. He wasn't looking at me as if he was going to rip the clothes off my body now.Rubbing my palms together, I sat on the small space left beside Liam. At least, he wouldn't dare to touch me since I am hungry right now.I dug in the spoon, ready to eat when but the moment the fork touched the food, the doorbell suddenly rang.I froze, wondering who could be at the door this late at night since the hotel staff already left. Liam stood up, a look of curiosity on his face, and walked over to the intercom. He pressed a button, and a voice came through the speaker."Hello?" the voice said and Liam's eyes flicked to me, and then back to the intercom. "Georgia," he said, his voice low and even. "What are you doing here?"I felt a surge of panic as I heard Georgia's name. What was she doing here? And why was Liam letting h
When I walked back to the suite, Liam was already dressed up in a pair of black pants while he tucked his hand inside the pocket of his pants. I forgot to mention that the hotel suite has a glass wall at one part in which you can look outside the world down from above.Without making a noise, I tiptoed to where my clothes were and quickly brought out the pyjamas I brought with me. My hands roamed inside the suitcase but there was no sign of the pyjamas. I grind my teeth together. Liam was still looking outside the glass wall. He was holding a glass filled with wine in his hand.He wouldn't have noticed me right?The pyjamas should be lying inside the suitcase because I made sure I brought it with me just because I have a feeling that a situation like this might occur in which I will be forced to share a room with Liam.Still, I couldn't find it.“Are you looking for this?" I heard Liam ask and my heart almost jumped out of my chest in shock. I didn't even hear the sound of his foots
"Why are you doing this, Liam?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.Liam's eyes narrowed, and he took a step closer to me. "What do you mean?" he asked, his voice low and husky as he tilted his head and his back bent to match my height.I swallowed hard, trying to find the words. "Why are you keeping me here? What do you want from me? I told you I want to take my bath," I said, bombarding him with questions while his eyes mirrored something I didn't understand.Liam's eyes seemed to bore into mine, and I could see the conflict raging within him. For a moment, I thought I saw a glimmer of the man I used to know, the man I loved before the sudden realization hit me. He was never mine, to begin with.Casting all my stupid emotions aside, I took in a deep breath, and this time, I decided to push Liam away by his chest, but instead, his expression hardened, and he reached out to grab my arm.I couldn't duck away because I knew my back would only hit the bed. I allow him to grab me. "H
Liam finally released me from his grip, and I stumbled backwards, gasping for air. "I'll freshen up first," he said, his voice calm and collected.I nodded, still trying to process what I had just heard. Liam disappeared into the bathroom, leaving me alone in the room.Hastily, I walked towards the bed and dropped my small bag. I heard the doorbell ring which prompted me to go to the door to check who was there. I pressed the intercom and Thierry's face appeared. I pulled open for him and stepped back for him to come in. “I brought the luggage with me," Thierry said and I nodded my head calmly. He was holding Liam's suitcase and mine. ”The boss told me to leave this here," Thierry said.“Alright," I replied and accompanied him to the door. I locked the door and walked back to check what Thierry dropped on the bed. Getting to the bedside, my eyes took in the white clothing lying on the bed. It was the bathrobe.Fuck!Don't tell me Liam went inside the bathroom without taking along a
"I'm afraid we're in the middle of a conversation," Liam said to the man, his voice polite but firm. His presence exudes confidence.The stranger smiled and nodded his head once. "I'm not interrupting," he said, his eyes still locked on mine and I swallowed hard. "I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Timothy, and I couldn't help but notice you from across the room."I felt a flutter in my chest as Ryan's eyes held mine. Men are almost the same. Is that his pick-up line?There was something about him that seemed charming and genuine, and I found myself wanting to talk to him more as a friend. Liam can enjoy his time with Georgia while I stay here with this new prince charming.But before I could respond, Liam stood up, his eyes flashing with anger. "I think it's time for us to go," he said, his voice low and menacing.”I will see you later," He said to Georgia and dragged me with him.Ryan's eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't back down. "I was just getting to know your...f
EMILY'S POV “I'm done with you, Emily. I never knew you could stoop so low. Bringing a bastard child into my home to claim it's mine?" I felt air suck out of my lungs when my husband, Liam, uttered those words with rage in his eyes. Tears streamed down my cheeks as I held on to the front of my dress. My baby bump couldn't let me stand well but what broke me more was the look Liam gave me. It was filled with disgust and hatred, which made me doubt whatever I was going to say was going to change a thing. "Liam, please, this is our child..." I began but my voice faltered when a slap suddenly landed on my cheek. My gaze became blurry as more tears threatened to escape my eyes. It stung but the person who slapped me was none other than my fake sister. She was the princess while I was nothing but her shadow. “How could you lie to my face?" My sister yelled in front of me with pure hatred in his eyes. She cleaned her hand with a handkerchief as if I were a rag before stomping the handker...
