MAYAEven though Liam was the most annoying and arrogant human I have ever met in my life, he was still my boss, and most of all I needed the money.To think of the fact that I had to play along with Silver just to please Liam because I knew if I didn’t the contract with Silver could go south and Liam would pay a compensation fee for wasting Silver's time. Liam didn’t even appreciate it.I saw no reason why I should waste my time falling for someone like him so I decided to erase all thoughts of me ever loving him from my head.I knew I would still find love again, so I decided to keep an open mind and give love a chance. At least that would help speed the healing of the heartbreak Lucas and Chloe caused me.When Silver sent Eve’s assistant to me with all the travel bags filled with the used for the photo shoot I was utterly surprised. Could this also be stated in the contract? I asked myself as I frowned.Of course, I rejected the outfits but the girl said Silver insisted that the ou
MAYAI opened my eyes and the person I didn’t expect to be tapping me was standing right in front of me. It wasn’t Liam like I expected it would be. It was someone else.I opened my eyes and in front of me stood the Air hostess with a frown on her face. I groaned and lazily unstrapped my seat belt. I turned and saw that Liam wasn't on the plane anymore.“ So that asshole left me here without waking me up, “ I mumbled and scoffed. “ Excuse me? I didn’t quite get what you said. “ The Air hostess asked me with a mean look on her face.“ That’s why it’s called mumbling, “ I retorted because I was in a bad mood for being woken up when I was just beginning to enjoy my sleep.“ Mr Taylor is waiting for you in his car outside, “ The Air hostess said and scoffed before walking away from me.When I looked at my phone to check the time, it was 8:25 p.m. But another thing caught my attention. It was a notification from my bank.I had to open the message to be able to see the main contents of it
MAYABefore I could sit on my office chair, Liam and I heard a knock on the door. I sat down anyway and the door opened revealing Henry with a bouquet of roses on his hands as he came and closed the door behind him.He had a big grin on his face and twitched his brows at me playfully which made me frown. I didn’t understand why he was twitching both his brows at me playfully and grinning widely.“ What are you doing Henry? “ Liam asked Henry with a blank expression on his face which made Henry immediately comport himself and keep a straight face.“ Uhm, Sir, these beautiful roses were sent to Mrs Allen, just now, “ Henry said as he walked over to me and gave me the roses.I looked at them with creased brows wondering who sent them. I knew for sure Lucas wasn’t the one who sent them, then who did? I saw a note on the roses and took it out to read.“ May I know who sent them? “ Liam asked Henry who nodded his head with a smile.“ Mr. Silver Grey was the one who sent these flowers for Mi
MAYAI flinched with fear when the door to the office suddenly opened with force. Liam and I turned to see the person who barged into our office only to see Bianca with a neck aid on her neck storm into the office with an angry look on her face.“ You bitch!!! How dare you steal my spot?? You go around parading yourself like an innocent person but in truth, you’re a pretentious poor girl. You think I don’t know you’re poor? Oh, I do and that’s how I know you’re just a gold digger. I want my… “ Bianca kept raining insults on me and wanted to continue but Liam cut her short.“ Enough!!!! “ Liam yelled and hit his hands on his desk angrily. He had a murderous look on his face like none I had ever seen before. Bianca flinched when Liam hit his hands on his desk and so did I. I wasn’t surprised that Bianca was acting this way. But what I found unacceptable was the way she was insulting me.“ How is it my fault that I did what I was asked to do? You had an accident and I was the only perso
MAYA“ Please don’t go with him, “ Liam said to me with the angry look on his face being replaced with a pleading look after a while of what seemed like he was thinking.“ Why Sir, “ I asked him. Deep down I had a feeling that I knew what he was about to say.“ If at all that is what he is about to say then it would be a miracle, “ My subconscious shot back at me with a laughter of mockery.Liam looked at me and this was the first time I had seen him nervous. He wanted to speak to me but didn't know how to. The Liam I knew never ran out of how to express himself.“ Just please don't go with him because if you do, it'll break my heart, “ Liam said with a tender look on his face.I was astounded by what he just said. Did he just indirectly confess that he feels something for me? Yeah, I knew sometimes he behaved like he cared about me but I thought my feelings for him were unrequited.“ I…I don't understand what you mean Sir, “ I answered him with a stutter.I was at a loss for words, h
LIAM’S POVWhen Maya left the office in a hurry with a blushing face I couldn’t help but chuckle. She looked so cute. After a few moments, she didn’t come back, which raised my worry so I went outside to check on her.Henry wasn’t at his office either, not like I was expecting him to be in his office since it was already time for lunch. I tried calling Maya but her line wasn’t reachable.“ Sir, are you searching for Miss Allen? “ One of my female staff members, Elvina, asked me.I straightened my suit jacket and nodded my head. Was it that obvious that I was looking out to see her? I frowned at the thought.“ Sir, she went for lunch with some guy. They just left the office to the cafe opposite our building, “ Elvina said as she batted her eyelashes at me.“ Alright thanks, “ I said and got into the elevator. When I heard Elvina tell me that Maya went for lunch with some guy my thoughts went to Silver.That conniving asshole is trying to manipulate Maya into his bed like he does with o
LIAM’S POVMy mom and my sister stood in front of me with menacing looks on their faces while I stood like a kid who had been caught doing something bad.“ Let's get on with it already shall we? Bring it on, “ I said to them with a bored look on my face and at the same time gesturing with my hands for them to come closer.I stood expecting them to lash out at me. I couldn't wait for them to get it over with so I could go find my Maya. The poor girl must be in bad shape right now, I thought to myself.But much to my surprise my mom and sister began to smile and giggle.“ That's weird, “ I muttered with a surprised and confused look on my face as my brows creased.“ Where did you meet her? “ My mom asked with a smile as she walked towards me while I took steps backward. I was still trying to process and digest their reactions.“ She’s cute. I especially love her hair, “ Anna said and giggled as she walked towards me. They kept walking towards me while in response I kept taking steps bac
LIAM’S POV I followed Anna downstairs, curious as to what she said I would want to see. Hardly had I walked down the stairs, when I saw Silver and Maya talking to my mom. They had the nerve to come to my house? I was pissed and disappointed at Maya for even accepting to come to my family residence with Silver. “ What are you both doing here? Leave!! “ I said angrily and pointed at the door. Maya looked perplexed at my outburst, which made me wonder why she acted that way after knowing what she did. “ Calm down Liam… We just… '' Silver began to speak but I cut him short. “ You don’t get to talk in my house after what you did, “ I yelled at Silver angrily, making him flinch at my sudden outburst. “ That’s your problem, Liam!! “ He yelled at me angrily too which made me pause for a moment in surprise. “ You always suspect any slight move I make. You blame me without knowing the full story or at least hearing from my side. That incident on that fateful day, I didn’t do it. I would
