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
MAYA’S POV After the series of hate comments, I got from netizens because of Liam and also after going to his family house to see him and him practically chasing me away. Here I was walking to his office to ask him what I did wrong only to meet him with Chloe in his arms. I was pained but there was no way I was going to let it show. So I just smiled which made Liam’s brows crease. “Good morning Sir, I’m here to tender my resignation letter,” I said and removed the letter from my bag. After what he did back at his family house, Silver helped me come up with a solution. Which was to resign and he would help me post that Liam was helping me rehearse for a commercial and that we were not dating at all. He said this would help calm netizen’s hate comments. I didn’t want to agree at first because there was no way I was going to deny my love for Liam, but seeing him now, Silver’s advice seemed to be the best option I’ve got. “What??” Liam asked, utterly shocked while Chloe stood by h
LIAM’S POVI stared at nothing in particular wondering what the hell just happened. I was hoping to see Maya at work today but I sure as hell didn’t expect her to quit work.When I asked if yesterday meant nothing to her, it pained me more than when Chloe broke my heart after I heard Maya make up a very silly excuse.I knew I deserved her outburst after the way I treated when she came to our family house but I didn’t expect that she would take this far.“Well, that went….” Chloe wanted to continue but I didn’t give the opportunity. I pushed her out of my office and locked my door.I grabbed the flower vase close to where I stood and smashed it to the wall.Just then I heard a knock on my door. I was angry at myself because I was the cause of Maya’s decision now.I composed myself because I had no option to. I was at work. Thereafter I opened my office door only to see Henry standing by the door.I left the door open for him and went to sit on my chair. He had a look which signified th
