18. A Damsel in Distress
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56After our girly chit-chat, Chloe started with her demonic gadgets on me. I couldn’t believe that she had brought all those all because I had a dinner with my worst enemy’s parents.
“What the hell are those?” I asked her, furrowing my eyebrows.
“An amateur's guide on a good makeover.” She said, with a wink, jingling the big bag in the air. Chloe brought the bag down and unzipped it.
There were lots of makeup gadgets inside. Hair curlers, skin creams and various makeup items in there.
She started by applying a mask on my face. That took some minutes to do. Next, she gave me a manicure and a pedicure. My body had to withhold her body creams too. She then pushed me into a tub of warm water, which she had also put some roses and body oils inside. My eye brows were arched most of the times, wondering why she performing the grand gesture.
When I got out, she started with doing my hair. At least I had tested her curling machine before so I didn’t fre

“Excuse me?” I asked, arching my brows at what Liam’s dad had asked. I definitely didn’t expect him to ask me something so straight forward, reminding me of my actual background.“You heard me right. Your probably poor self has never eaten something like this, have you?” he uttered.“Dad.” Liam cautioned, giving him a stoic glare. For a second, I actually wondered why he was defending me. I hadn’t been good to him most of the times. Did he mean what he just said or this was all part of the act?“It’s ok, Lee.” I told Liam, still playing the girl friend role. My hands moved to his, pretending to sooth it to calm him down.“Tell us about your parent’s profession,” Lady Racheal, who was his mum asked. Sighting her merely, one could have no doubt that she was of high societal status from how she always posed. Neck, so elegant. Even her clothes were coated in diamonds which looked authentic.I could swear I had no idea of what to say. W

I had woken up this morning only to recall what Jackson had told me last night— “If you weren’t Liam’s girl, I would have kissed you right now,”“Kissed you right now.”“Kissed you right now.”“Kissed you right now.”“Urrgh!!” I groaned out, so frustrated at what he said. What did he mean by that?Did that mean he had feelings?Or was I just imagining things out of the blue?I think I needed a

I averted my gaze to the fashion store’s door, looking at the person that had just called my celebrity name. I couldn’t believe my eyes.“Leah?” I called out. I knew she came to shop for something too.“Nikki!” she exclaimed, coming forward.“You came to get some stuffs too?” I asked her. I noticed her brightened expression dimmed once I told her that. She immediately covered it with a smile before looking at me calmly.“Actually, it’s for someone really important to me.” she said.“Oh, really. Who?” I asked, wanting to know what made her look worked up for a moment.“My sister.” She said.“That’s nice. I've never seen her before. Is she a model too?” I asked, arching a brow up.“She was. My sister is in the hospital. She got involved with an accident which kept her in a coma.” Leah surprisingly let out. My eyes widened at her review and my hands lifted to my mouth in a gasp.“I’m so sorry. I didn’t—”

Circumstances.A thirteen-letter word that held various meanings for certain people. For a little child, it could mean his candies being stolen. For a teenager, it could mean be embarrassed in front of his peers. But for me, it was being cuddled by someone I always loathed and reviled.Liam James.I couldn’t believe that I was in his arms. I wouldn’t have ever believed this scenario if someone had ever told me days back. Talk less of right now, when I was sick and helpless. I couldn’t deny I needed his help and he was doing it just fine. My mind was beginning to soften just from being in his hands. His body warmth held a welcoming feeling, making my body perfectly fit with his.My cold was being tamed by him, with his hands around my waist. Feeling his manhood on my cheeks brought an enticing sensation that bolted through my body. I froze at the spot, trying to ignore that fact because of my sickly situation. But when I couldn’t convince

Liam’s Pov “Tell me about it,” I ordered Solomon, my personal assistant, inside the walls of my office. Over the past couple of months, Pink Moda has been working on a project to merge with companies so we’ll go international worldwide. I personally gave Solomon the task to investigate the shareholders of the company we planned to merge up with, “Blue Spirit.”“Here is what I found. The figure with a very large percent is man with a very high societal prestige. No one dares to cross his part or even mess with him, sir. In fact, people believe he is involved in an underground illegal business.” He said.“This is his picture.” Solomon added, giving me a copy of what the supposed shareholder looked like. I curved my lips in a tight smile, staring at the piece carefully.“Is that all for now?” I asked him.“Yes, sir.” He responded.“You’re dismissed,”

Some situations just suddenly appeared in front of you, making you wonder how in the world you never noticed. That was exactly what was happening to me.It was insane.Very insane.The fact that I never took notice that he was Liam James’ brother was crazy. For a moment, I looked at him so surprised. Though, I knew I had to make the right confirmations.“Like real brother? Or friendship brother?” I asked him wriggling my brows at his declaration. I didn’t just want to believe that someone with his personality shared a bloodline with the almighty Liam James.Jackson laughed at my statement. His bruised face was what even made him appear adorable at the moment. “I believe you don’t see that possible in any way, sugar plum?” he asked. With my hands at the end of my jaw in wonder, I nodded my head at his question.“Then I will have to explain myself more. Liam is my step-bro. My mum married his dad years back. Since then, we've had a hard t

Surprise.That was the exact feeling that ran through my body right now. I couldn’t believe that Chloe would actually show up at my place without telling me. Thus, everything felt unreal. The moment I noticed her crying, I dropped my bag on the floor. Walking to her in total amazement, I sat beside her.“C-Chloe? Are you ok? You didn’t tell me you were coming over. I could have come home earlier if you did.” I stated, asking her. She had a pillow in between her legs. Her under eyes were stained with mascara making them look dark. She spared me a glance and I watched as tears dripped down.“Why are you crying?” With a hand on one of her shoulders, I asked.“He…” she trailed out, before gulping. She didn’t even complete the sentence.“He what? Is it Matt?” I asked her, in reference to her boyfriend. I always had a bad vibe around her boyfriend but had to pretend to be nice to see her happy. I saw her nod her head as I asked if it was Matt.
Fall in Love with a Billionaire 26. Taming The Press
It was all like I was caught between the devil and the sea. I hated too much attention and that was what the board of bosses where giving me now. Like a timid wolf, I stared at the four bosses: Boss Liam, Devereaux, Jackson and the other female whose name I didn’t even know. They all seemed pissed at me. I watched as one let out a sight. Boss Devereaux stood up first, with her attention focused on me.“Why must all bad news come from you? Are you the only model in Pink Moda?!” She yelled, making me cringe, shutting my eyes from the humiliation. I decided to say something so they’d know how this job meant to me. I didn’t want to let anyone down.“I’m sorry for what I did, Miss. May I know what went wrong exactly so I’ll try to fix it?” I stated. I heard a scoff that instant, making her give me an irritated look.“Fix? Some things are better avoided, Nikki. How in hell’s name are we going to fix this?!” It was the female

Liam’s Pov In the right way, Reyes had been dealt with. His properties would be seized by the government, in a few days from now. Which only meant one thing— this was it. “Red…” I trailed on my words, stretching my hands towards her. We were both inside the ambulance van, by each other’s side. Seemed like I took the most injuries, yet somehow, I had been able to wake up and fight. “Liam.” she breathed out, replying. “I-It’s all over…still unbelievable. I thought…I- thought we were all going to…” “Shhh.” I urged, placing a hand on her lip and silencing her. I couldn’t imagine ever losing her, so I couldn’t even bear to think of it. My injury was external, thankfully, she had a few scratches. But she still needed to be checked on, and thoroughly examined. In the other ambulance van was Chloe. Jackson had gone to her,

I screamed and screamed my guts out, but it was all futile. They kept dragging us both, till we reached beside the truck.“Now.”One of them ordered. Some black van pulled over. That instant, black sacks were put over my head. I struggled as I was being put in.“You don’t have to do this, you know.”I muttered. “Shut up, bitch.”Some rough voice sneered, irritatingly.I bit my lips, not knowing what step to take again. My entire body froze, as I stopped struggling out of fear. Hands shaking rapidly, as the van drove speedily.Liam was just beside me and he was still passed out.I wondered how hard the accident hit him.

Chloe’s PovI took an early leave to go home today, from work.I was so tired. Tired of everything.My shitty love life, and the fact that Jackson, who I presently liked, thought of us as friends and nothing else.These were my thoughts as I entered my car, zooming off at high speed. My thoughts drifted to Orange Summers—the only place that I took comfort in.“Chloe, I see you’re here again?” The bar tender called out, as I dragged a stool, sitting on it. Seemed he was used to my presence so much already.“Yeah Ray… I want four bottles of beer, please.”I ordered, bringing my phone out from my purse and settling it on the bar’s table. I texted Eleanor, but it seemed like she was busy with work too.Of recent, she was the only one I turned to in times of need. Friends at my workplace, only remaine

“It isn’t funny that your dad, a rich billionaire suddenly wants you back?” Chloe’s words reminisced my head. “Nope…I mean my mum lied to me, Chloe. And I, um…don’t even know if I should be trusting her again.” “Why not, she’s your mum. You should know the type of person she is by now, Eleanor.” “Don’t let some stranger, who was never present ruin that nice relationship between you both. She might not have given you the comfortable life but you turned out right,” She had stated. “I mean, look at you girl. You’re a survivor. As Nikki Fox, the world hated on you but you’re still going.” “What am I going to do, Clo?” Almost at the verge of tears, I had asked. “Talk to your mum, it would make more sense if everyone’s on your side, bestie.

My thoughts were scrambled with yesterday’s incidence the minute I woke up. I remembered drinking to forget it all, but now… I wanted to sleep once more not to even think of it. Mum’s betrayal. Liam’s words about Mr. Reyes. Did she do it to protect me, like she said? Suddenly, flashbacks of last night spinned in my head. “I had a shitty day, Liam. Please make love to me,” Oh no… “We aren’t even in a relationship anymore, remember?” He had tried convincing me out of it, but I still shamelessly pushed on. “I was overshadowed by my own countenance and wishful thinking, for that I’m sorry,” “Now fuck me,” My eyes widened at my words, with my toes entangling each other. It was no wonder I felt sore in between my legs. We did make love last night, for the second time. And we did it countlessly, till we were exhausted. I hope he didn’t wake up.

I put it in my purse, walking to Orange Summers, the only place that seemed to understand me.“And one too, for me.”A familiar low baritone voice, lurked in surprisingly behind me. I looked behind me, only to see Liam clothed in his usual black expensive suit, looking as handsome and gorgeous as ever.He settled on a chair just beside me.I almost couldn’t believe my eyes.“Liam, what are you doing here?”I asked, with a sigh, almost cringing in distress.
