Liam was dumbstruck, Amelia who just stepped out of the bathroom with a white towel around her body and on her head was a bit startled by his sudden appearance.Surprisingly her body wasn't wet at all there was no trace of water to prove that she just stepped out of the shower.She walked past him heading to the vanity table, he noticed all her things were back there again. "What are you doing here?".Amelia ignored his question while she raised her legs on a stool applying her body lotion on her legs exposing her fair and smooth thighs.Liam swallowed hard as he watched her hand movements up and down her leg.His eyes widened when she was about to take off her towel. "Stop it now!" he said in a deep voice walking forward to stop her from taking her towel off."What the hell are you doing?"His familiar scent waft through her nose, she looked up to meet his gaze."Stupid! do you really think I'll pull off my towel? move aside"Amelia allowed the towel drop down to her feet to reveal
Amelia sat inside the car for a while with her eyes closed. "get out!" she ordered with her eyes still closed. The driver nodded and left the car while Amelia took over the driver's seat.She glanced one more time at the building where she sighted Allison scurrying out as if she was being chased by a demon. She watched Allison drive out before leaving as well....Nicholas opened the documents he stole from his grandfather's study and started going through it. Angie rose up to her feet when she saw the uncomfortable look on her son's face. "Prince what is it? what is it all about?"."Grandfather's darkest secrets" Nicholas mumbled raising his head to meet his mum's curious eyes."What? tell me boy and cut the suspense!" Angie impatiently mumbled.Nicholas handed the file to his mum who went through it. "Oh my goodness! so old Grayson is responsible for that incident and he hid it all these years no wonder the police couldn't solve the mystery"Angie was shocked to the core as she
Liam raised his hand brushing her hair gently "They were not wrong but I find this new look rather.........."Are you trying to criticize me? look Mr Arrogant I know I look pretty even your fiancee can't be compared to me". she sucked.Liam chuckled at her childish behavior "Hmm I know, by the way what you did to Allison tonight will forever be imprinted in her memory".Amelia's mood turned sour recalling how that little miss donkey imposed her rights on Liam, her cheek turned crimson red remembering the words Louisa said to her that might be true.'You've started developing feelingsfor Liam'"I had to do something, how dare she try to steal my position as your wife if she tries that again I'll break her jaw!"Liam's thoughts drifted back to what his mum said to him minutes ago, 'Could it be true? does she want to stay with me?' There was an awkward silence between them as they were both lost in their own thoughts. Amelia laid back on the bed.'Have I really fallen for Mr Arrogant?
Amelia struggled to release her arm from Liam's grip. "You are hurting me Liam!" Liam released her arm immediately they got outside. "What on earth are you doing here?"Amelia threw her face to the other side avoiding his eyes. "Oh were you eavesdropping? then I guess you don't like the way I spoke to your soon to be brother in law"Liam sighed, she was really unbelievable at times. "Will you just quit acting jealous?"Amelia gasped "I'm not jealous"."Then what are you doing here?" he said folding his arm."Well I came here to return the money your grandfather gave to me, his offer was too little so I tried to negotiate with him".Liam raised his brow still not getting what she was trying to convey, and what money was she talking about?"What money?""Well your grandad offered me a whooping amount of three hundred million in cash to leave you for Allison"Liam let out a sigh of relief, he was glad that she chose to refuse the money."but I didn't accept it because I demanded for fiv
Amelia bit down her lower lip, she was gradually turning red by the minutes. "This is not fair! you hid your true identity which is against the rules"Liam relaxed on his seat "You think I'm unfair? well if you can go on blind dates even though you are married that makes us even"Amelia stood up from her seat feigning anger "Fine then enjoy your date alone!" "what? you can't just leave now! I arrived just in time for our date and you can't go until we are done".Amelia grabbed her purse from the table "Watch me leave then hmp!"Liam nodded his head in agreement, if she wants to leave then so be it!Amelia walked towards the door and tried to open it, she pushed it a few more times before she realized that it was locked.Liam rolled the keys on his index finger at the same time whistling. She turned back to him "You locked the door!"Liam shrugged before walking towards her, when he was close enough to her his hands went around her waist pulling her closer to him."How will you leave
Amelia pushed him back when he tried to come a little close to her. "Just because you are the mayor's son that doesn't mean you can turn the road into your comfort zone, your father is working his ass off to take the city to it's peak but you are the one ruining his work with your lazy butt!"Fred regained his stance once again "You speak too much, why don't you become a lawyer instead of wasting your time acting movies".Amelia smiled at his kind suggestion "Thanks for the suggestion but I think you should first apply that to yourself!".Fred pulled Amelia towards his car's bonnet while placing both hands beside her trapping her in the process."Now listen I'll go easy on you only if you comply and control that sharp tongue of yours, I really don't enjoy hitting women but I'll definitely enjoy torturing you till you........Fred groaned loudly and crotched down after being kicked below the belt by Amelia. Fred's Henchmen stepped forward to hit Amelia but she dodged just in time while
Allison casted Amelia a deadly glare, her face had completely turned red she stepped slowly towards them. Liam couldn't believe that Allison would show her face in the house after what took place between she and Amelia."I should be asking you that question! you've managed to snatch Liam from me by using your conniving and treacherous ways!"Amelia narrowed her eyes at Allison to know exactly where she was driving at."If it's about what happened to your sad brother, I feel no remorse whatsoever and by the way I never snatched Liam"Amelia took a step forward "He was always mine to begin with and I'm not willing to share him with anyone most especially you!"Allison sniffed back the tears that were beginning to fall out of her eyes. "You both have declared war, dracula won't spare you" Allison said spitefully."Let him come I'll be waiting! he dared mess with my wife today believe me when I say that the countdown to his downfall begins tonight!"Allison swallowed hard staring at Ameli
Old Grayson snapped his head to the door to meet mark's already red and angry set of eyes. Mark took a step into the study room. "Father what is the meaning of this?"Old Grayson swallowed hard staring at the paper in his son's hand. "mark that is the.........."save it dad!" mark roared banging his fist on the table. "All these years you lied to us all about mother's death, you were the one who murdered her in cold blood"Old Grayson maintained a calm expression as he watched mark rant on. "You knew who murdered Brianna but you chose not to talk instead you closed down the case how could you do this dad?""It was for your own good son if your mother didn't die you wouldn't have been living in all these riches!""Dad!" mark stared at his father in disbelief, he staggered back a little knocking over some books on the shelf."And yes I shut down Brianna's case because I didn't want the media poking their nose in our family's affair"Mark was speechless, old Grayson's explanation was rid
Liam twirled her around before placing his hands back on her waist.."So? if they ask we will tell them that we went out to get Aidan a sister"Amelia bit her lower lip, she rested her head on his chest.. trying to hide the redness on her face.."You have an answer for everything don't you?"Cecile and Brianna exchanged warm hugs "I'm the happiest mum on earth today" Brianna declared which was accompanied by a chuckle.."It's so wonderful seeing them together...I wish them all the happiness in the world"Karl held Clara's fork from picking on his plate "Clara you've become so greedy..and you have to stop eating for now.. you've practically tasted every meal here today!"Clara squinted her eyes at him "One more reason why our baby will love me more than you"Karl sighed and released her fork, he pushed his plate to her.. "I will get you some more"He was about to get up from his seat when he noticed the change in her expression..."Clara? are you alright?" He asked worriedly touching he
Few weeks later....A church was decked out in flowers and greenery, with white roses and lilies adorning the altar and pews. Garlands of ivy and ferns draped the archway where the bride and groom would exchange their vows. Hanging from the ceiling were hundreds of tiny fairy lights, giving the church a magical glow. The smell of fresh flowers filled the air, mingling with the scent of beeswax candles that flickered in the candelabras. Amelia glided down the aisle, her gown flowing behind her like a cloud. The fabric was soft and light, embellished with delicate beading and lace. Her veil floated behind her, held in place by a small tiara on her head. Her face was radiant, her eyes shining with happiness. As she walked, the crowd fell silent, captivated by her beauty. Her every step was graceful and elegant, and it seemed like time itself had stopped to watch her journey down to him...As she made her way down the aisle, all eyes turned to the person who was walking beside he
Liam's lips drew a smirk as he spotted her in the midst of the small crowd of people..He walked elegantly and sat on his car's bonnet, Louisa nudged Amelia.."That's Liam Amy!"Amelia bowed her head turning all red.. she wondered what on earth he was doing here..Liam raised the megaphone to his mouth while the media flashed and clicked their camera's at him.."To the most beautiful actress in the world.. who caught my attention without doing much..There was a little murmur among themselves, every lady who was present there blushed hard..."I think he finally noticed me!"Amelia heard a lady squealed beside her, in her dreams.."Mr Grayson is going extra miles to tell the world you are his..""Don't hide your pretty face away from the world darling.. it's our moment" Liam continued and jumped down from the car...Every step he took caused the ladies heart to beat faster than normal.. Amelia itched her nape, she bit her bottom lips..'What is he up to now?' she screamed internally..
Dylan's hands turned into tight fists as he stared at Steven.. "I don't accept it Liam.. I've seen this guy break girls heart like they mean nothing to him.. and he actually came for my sister?!""Dylan.. I can say that about you too.. you know?"Dylan averted his gaze back to Louisa who just spoke."Are you actually comparing me to this guy Lou?" Louisa sighed and stood up, she walked around the table and stood in front of him.."You were once like them.. but you changed, that doesn't mean they can't change also..I'm also someone's sister.. haven't that thought crossed your mind yet?"Dylan fixed his gaze on her, he fell into a deep thought digesting each words she said.."I guess you are right" he murmured before turning to Steven..."And you listen! I hope you are not planning to dump her because if you do.. I will come for your head!"Steven chuckled and embraced Dylan "I'm actually serious with her"Brianna stood up and applauded "Wow.. that was epic.. these four friends are qui
Liam smiled at Amelia as she approached him.. just when he was about to pull her into a hug..Aidan came in between and hugged him instead "Daddy"Liam lifted Aidan up in his arms "Hey champ! how are you?""I'm so excited to be here again.. and we also came in the car you got for me"Dylan took a glance at his wrist watch and sighed, Louisa and Nora haven't arrived yet..."Look at that..now there's a third wheel between them" Steven jested which earned a laughter from them all..Liam placed Aidan down just as he wished, "Did you doll up just for me?" Liam whispered to Amelia..Amelia rolled her eyes.. and pulled out a seat for herself.."What do you think?"Soon after they all began filling the empty spaces on the long dining table...Brianna took a seat next to Cecile.. it's been so long since they saw and chatted heartily with each other.."Cecile I hope you are no longer upset with Liam for what he did..if you still are.. I beg of you to forgive him"Cecile touched Brianna's hands
Amelia laid down on her bed and turned off the bedside lamp off.. she stared at the ceilings for a long time with a smile on her lips..A knock came on her window which startled her out of her thoughts.. she came down slowly from the bed.."What if that is actually a thief?..." Her eyes found its way to the shelf a few steps away from her..She tiptoed to it and grabbed the flower vase on the shelf.."I will teach that thief the lesson he deserves!" she murmured and returned back to the window...The knock came again but this time hurriedly which jerked her out..She raised the ceramic vase above her head ready to strike as she opened the window.."Thief!" A large palm covered her mouth to stop her from screaming..."Shh it's me!"Amelia heard the familiar male's voice and turned on the bedside lamp.."You! it's so late already! and why didn't you use the front door like a normal person?""I'm not a normal person and besides that I love this new way of coming into your room late at n
Amelia gasped softly when Liam suddenly pulled her forward to him..His hands settled on her waist while his eyes locked with hers.."Liam let go..""I want to hear you say that you love me" Liam whispered into her ears sending shivers down her spine.. she gripped onto his arm for support when she felt her knees weaken..Amelia heaved deep breaths when he planted small kisses on her neck, he left her slender fair neck and took her lips in his.."Just say it" He murmured in between kisses, Amelia's hands found its way to caress his hair... He lifted her off the ground and her legs went around his waist.."Liam put me down" Liam ignored her tantrums and moved to the direction of the bed, he gently laid her down on the bed..He pulled off his coat and loosened his black tie a bit before taking a seat on the sofa adjacent to the bed..Amelia sat up hurriedly.. she blinked severally at Liam who had a grin on his lips..Liam raised a brow at her "What? were you expecting something else?"
Louisa swallowed hard as Dylan turned back to her, she bit her lower lips avoiding his intense gaze on her.."Say that one more time" Louisa raised her head, doesn't he know how hard this was for her? her face turned red.."I.. said.. I love you" She stuttered staring at his face, in the next second she was pulled into a tight embrace by dylan..."You have no idea of how long I've been waiting for you to say that.." Louisa buried her face on his chest inhaling his masculine scent..Dylan pulled away from her back a little bit when he heard her small sobs..."Louisa are you okay?" Louisa nodded her head and wiped her face with her sleeves.."I'm so sorry Dylan for everything I made you go through..."Dylan wiped away the fresh years that rolled down her cheeks with his hand.."Please don't cry anymore because of that..""But I..Dylan claimed her lips in his, he didn't want her blaming herself for everything...Her love was more than enough for him, he was already ready to start af
Olivia sighed and stared back at Louisa who suddenly went quiet.."I came here to tell you this.. Dylan will agree to the alliance only if you don't want anything to do with him""He won't.. he was here yesterday and he told me that I....Louisa paused her speech midway... she turned on the tap and placed her hands under the running water.."Louisa" Olivia called out only to be ignored, she watched Louisa pull off her apron and walked hurriedly out of the kitchen...She followed suite and saw Louisa picking up her purse.."Louisa where are you off to?" Olivia called after, the door slammed behind Louisa as she left the house..Nora came down and stood before Olivia "Aunt what do you think about this dress?" she asked twirling around..Olivia caught Nora's shoulder to stop her from twirling herself around.."You look like a princess in this dress" Olivia complimented with a wink which earned a giggle from Nora..."But where is mum?" Nora asked scanning the living room for any trace of
