Eve's POV

When they finished introducing themselves; he furthered more told them that I am the new secretary; he informed them about his arrival and he made mentioned that; * He has come to stay * I didn't really get what he meant.

After the meeting ended; everyone left for their various departments leaving Liam in the hall. Actually, he ordered them to leave first but I was still there, waiting for him; uhm waiting for him simply because we came here together.

"Are you waiting for me stepmom?" Liam asked me; as he picked up a few things from the table.

"No" I lied.. I might have said 'yes' but he added 'stepmom' to the end of the question.

"Okay.. so why are you still here? you don't know your way to the office I just showed you?" He asked.

"I do" I told him, then I picked up my documents and phone... I hurried out of the hall.

* Any slight mistake can make me change my mind *

Those words echoed and his mean voice jingled in my head like a bell.

    Eve's POV Rather than to apologize, What else can I do? I bow my head a little and told them that I am sorry but looks like, they didn't have my time. I let them be then I returned to my seat...trying to concentrate on the monitor but Liam and Clara were still right there, embracing themselves inseparably. "Come on" It was Clara who disengaged from him first. "Didn't you say that you were busy and I shouldn't come see you yet?"Liam asked her and she smiled and tucked the fallen hair strand to the back of her ear. " Just because.. I wanted to give you a surprise" Clara responded. Liam wouldn't stopped smiling, he held her hand and intertwined it with his. "Look at you Clara, you are looking so pretty, I just can't believe that you look really different and I...I.."He covered his mouth in astonishment... Sweet words couldn't describe how he felt at that now. He just wanted to be in her arms again. " You are not looking bad as well Liam.." Clara blus

    We returned to the office when the lunch break was over. Indeed, I felt energetic to complete the pending task ahead of me... When I was done with it, I neatly arranged the files then went to Liam's phone to submit the files for him to review. It was then I realized that he has not been in his office all this while (since we returned from break). I stopped all the acting and be free to myself; I mean I was deluding to be composed, good and hardworking.. Of course I am but not to that faking extend. "Why didn't you tell us that Mr Liam is not around? I just found out from the receptionist, she said he hasn't return to the office ever since he left" George poked in immediately I returned to my seat. "I guess we found out at the same time" I replied him. "Enough of choking myself" He loosened his tie. "Hey, think about if Mr Maya, his father or agents from the companies we work with, suddenly shows up or Mr. Liam himself?" Daisy said...entering my office to

    Eve's POV "Helen!" I hollered her name as soon as I entered the house. "Hi Helen" Liam said to her sheepishly then he climbed the stairs. "Helen!" I exclaimed again but this time around, giving her hug. "I'm happy for you Eve" She said. "I guess Robert has told you about it" "Yeah! Oh My God! Managing director? How much is your salary and how did you do it Eve?" She asked. "Oh, not managing director. Something happened Helen but to cut the long story short, I'm working for Liam as his secretary" I told her."Oh My God, isn't that amazing? I feel you are so lucky Eve" She said. "Lucky? No Helen, don't use that word." I corrected her as I climbed the staircase to go to my room but she followed me behind. "So what happened next?" "Work of course" "I also heard Mr Maya got you a new phone" "Well... I'm sorry I didn't let you know I had none" I told her as we entered into my room. It was neat and arranged. This wasn't the way I left it t

    Eve's POV Liam cried like a baby, repeating Clara's name over and over again... that was how we gotta know what happened to the end of their relationship. Sad enough, there is nothing we can do about it, even his brother Mark tried to console him but Liam said he wanted to be alone, then he walked up to his room and locked the door. "I saw this coming " Helen said as soon as we returned to the kitchen; Robert followed us too. "Are you happy they broke up?" Robert questioned her. "Uh, no why will I be? It's normal to guess things ahead of time. Assuming we were in good terms, you know.. I would have advised him before this happened and even try to console him now that it has happened" Helen said as she added some spices to the meal on fire then giving it a good stirr. Looks like she and Robert didn't really really care but I do. "I feel bad for Liam. I actually saw Clara today and she was too good for him, infact he was so into her that he never imagined this coming s

    Why did I knock on his door? "Uughh... I..you... I..uugh" I stammered, murmuring all sort of nonsense. Now, where do I start from? "Go away" He said about to close his door... Oh Good! I should return to my room quietly. "Liam" I swear, I didn't know when I mentioned his name. I guess my emotion is faster than my action. "What is it?" He opened the door again and asked me. Please Liam, just lock your door already and leave me alone because I really don't know what has taken over me right now and even made you to open the door for me? Okay, he didn't know I was the one knocking at first. "Uhmm...can I come in please?" I asked him...giving him a pitiful stare. He was looking at me too, at least; it was no more a stern look...his eyes were now clouded with tears again and I could see that he was holding back the tears. "Do you want to console me as a stepmother or... " He paused and cleaned his wet eyes with his bare hands but the tears freely flow

    Eve's POV I yelled at the top of my voice; luckily I got their attention at once. Good thing, Mark was an undergraduate medical student, so he gave him the first aid, in a few minutes Liam opened his eyes. Mark said he still wasn't getting any better yet. So he put a phone to the family doctor. "Meanwhile Helen, cook something quickly for my brother to eat" Mark told Helen. "I would do that right away" Even the almighty strong girl with a tough heart was panicking.. (Helen). "I would join you Helen so that we could be fast about it" I told her then faced Mark; "Please do not leave Liam's side" I advised him. "Sure" He nodded."By the way, the doctor will be here soon" I joined Helen in the kitchen... I knew she had a series of questions for me already, so I decided to tell her everything even before she would ask me. "The thing is that I went to his room yesterday night to comfort him" I told her but she was so fast with what she was doing that she didn't even

"Actually I wanted..uhm.. to apologise yesterday when it suddenly thought of it that you are only a young girl struggling to make ends meet plus you're very worried about your life, your Dad..but..but you just fell into the wrong hands; My Dad" He paused and summon up courage to look at me.

I wanted to make you know I didn't mean any of the insulatives words I said to you, so I tried to uhm..talk to you in the car yesterday" He said. "Liam.." I cut in but he continued.

    Liam's POV "So why are you guys talking about my Dad and me? I heard everyone's voices and I know for sure that Mark didn't only do the gossiping " He said, folding his hands and giving us a stern look. We looked at him; speechlessly and our hearts were racing, Robert was more scared because he knew he said something bad about Liam. "Okay! That was a joke" Liam finally smiled and we heaved a heavy sigh of relief. "How do you feel now Liam" Mark, Madam Theresa and I asked at the same time. "Yeah. I'm better" Liam replied as he took his seat. I stood up, move towards him then I placed my palm on his forehead and my other palm on my own forehead to compare our temperature again. "Your temperature is normal now" I said..and he smiled. I returned to my seat to finish up my meal. No one was saying anything that was when I realized that they were all staring at me. "Uughh.?" I halted the awkward silence... "What did you just do?" Helen whispered into my ears.

And before we left the mansion, Mr Maya spoke to us as if we were never ever gonna see him forever.
