LIAM’S POV:I received a call from the station that Ava lost her life while engaging in a fistfight with her cellmates who seemed to have beat the life out of her.We were then asked to contact her relatives to come and bury her body.I didn't feel any ounce of pity for her. Serves her right for betraying Mia and trying to make her lose her baby.I told Mia what the officers said about Ava and I could see a tiny bit of pity reflect on her face, but it disappeared as soon as it appeared.“That's good,” she said trying to sound less concerned but I could see that her mood had changed. She looked a little down.“Mia, are you okay?” I asked her.“Do I look like I'm not okay? I'm okay of course,” she said with a shrug.“I'm just wondering if you were affected by the news that I just relayed,” I said feeling concerned.“I'm not affected at all, in fact, I'm the happiest girl on earth right now,” she said with a smile which I think was forced.“You sure?” I asked with narrowed eyes.“Yeah. S
LIAM’S POV:I stilled in shock as I saw the last person I expected to see on my doorstep again.“Riley?” I uttered still in shock of what she was doing here.“Good to see you again Liam,” she said with a smile that I found charming before.“What are you doing here?” I asked, looking surprised as I accessed her from head to toe. She was slutily dressed looking like she just came out from a brothel. Looks like she is finally free from pretending to be someone she's not all in the name of marriage.“Like what you see?” she asked. Looks like she caught me staring.I quickly cleared my throat as I put on a serious face.“That doesn't change my question, Riley,” I said as a cover-up before she got the wrong idea.“You won't even usher me in,” she said as she forced her way through the door as she walked into the living area.She casually walked over to one of the couches and sat down while crossing her legs.I stood on the doorstep still thinking hard about why Riley decided to come back a
MIA’S POV:After stuffing my clothes in my suitcase, I checked my reflection in the mirror to erase every trace of my tears from my face because I didn't want Riley to know that I cried. I had seemed weak if she noticed. So I went to the bathroom and washed my face before applying some powder on my face.I grabbed my suitcase as I left the room and headed downstairs. I was gonna leave this house and the little memories that I have made with Liam in it.Although a part of me was hoping that Liam would beg me not to leave, insisting that I stay with him, another part of me told me that I was only daydreaming.I confirmed that I was really daydreaming about Liam caring about me and begging me not to leave when I saw him kissing Riley fiercely.My heart shattered into a billion pieces as I watched them struggle to breathe as they engaged in a never-ending kiss.“Couldn't they at least wait for me to leave before making out publicly in the living area?” I thought bitterly as tears burned
LIAM’S POV:I watched as Mia walked out of the gate and into the streets in annoyance. I hesitated to follow her as her words echoed in my head.“Don't you dare call my name, and I don't want to see you near me ever again. Since you kiss every woman that comes your way, jerk”I sighed in frustration as her words kept replaying in my head all over again.“Does she think so low of me after spending time with me for a few months? She still doesn't trust me after all’ I thought hurtfully as I walked back into the house.I walked inside the living area, and I looked around for the source of my misery but couldn't find her anywhere.“Have she finally left my life for good?” I thought to myself as I beckoned on one of the maids who was wiping the big screen television.She hurried over to me with a lowered head.“Do you know where Riley went to!” I asked as I looked around the corners of the living area one more time. She must be somewhere around this house since I was standing at the gate a
LIAM’S POV:I woke up feeling dizzy and exhausted as I tried to adjust my eyes to the ray of sunshine that seeped in through the window.I groaned as I stirred on the bed backing the window. I looked over to where Riley lay beside me after our hot session but she wasn't there. I instantly knew that she was gone as her portion of the bed had gone cold.I cursed myself inwardly as I realized that Riley had tricked me into sleeping with her with the promise of signing the divorce papers.“Damn, how can I get tricked by Riley who I'm sure as hell must be laughing her ass out at me,” I thought to myself, still cursing inwardly.“I should have known that it was a trick to lure me to bed with her. What was I even thinking when I agreed to sleep with her, I should have known that she was up to no good.”“I should have made her sign the fucking divorce papers last night before thinking of my next line of action. I regret betraying Mia who was hurt because of me and also left because of me. No
LIAM’S POV:I stared at the video, shocked to even utter a single word. My whole world came crashing at me as soon as I saw that video.It was a video of how I fucked the living daylight out of Riley who seems like she couldn't get enough of me as she kept begging me to go deeper as she dug her perfectly manicured nails in my back.I cursed inwardly as I realized Riley’s real purpose for coming back. It was all a setup that she planned from the get-go on how she will separate Mia from me.It made sense that she came just when I argued with Mia the previous night. It seems like she's been spying on us but how or rather who was her accomplice that was living under my shelter?Riley must have had the thought of ruining Mia with a video of how I banged her immediately Mia left so that must be why she secretly set up a camera to film our act.I couldn't talk as I gaped at the video which seemed to be carefully filmed with my mouth slightly open.I could feel Mia’s hot gaze on me and I knew
MIA’S POV:I slammed the door on Liam’s face as I rested my back on the door trying to calm my angry self.“How the hell did he think that he could get back with me after messing around with Riley? Does he think that I'm that cheap that I will jump up at the idea of double timing with him even if he's New York's wealthiest billionaire” I thought angrily as I slumped on the floor.A flash of the video I just watched came into my memory and I couldn't help but break down in tears.No matter how hard I tried to get rid of the thought of Liam from my mind, I simply couldn't because I came to admit that I was in love with him.But being in love with him doesn't mean that I will agree to stoop so low and become his mistress or whatever he considers me.I cried my eyes out as I still sat by the door trying to get rid of every thought about him.I managed to get up from my sitting position after two hours of brooding thoughts about Liam. “I can't possibly let him ruin my day, even though my
MIA’S POV:I stared wide-eyed at the shivering person lying beside my doorstep.I couldn't believe my eyes as I walked a step closer to the person. My eyes widened when I realized that the person I saw wasn't just my imagination.It was an unconscious Liam, shivering nonstop as he cuddled his wet body.“Liam?” I called out still unsure of what to say.He didn't reply instead he continued shivering heavily.It looked like he was caught in the storm last night. But didn't he leave before the storm because I heard the sound of his car driving off?“Oh God Liam” I called as I rushed to him. I shook him many times but he wasn't responding.I knew I had to do something because I couldn't just leave him like this on my doorstep even though he had badly hurt me. Besides, he was starting to draw attention from the neighbors.I took off my coat leaving me in only my singlet as I draped the coat around his cold shoulders.I tried getting him up on his feet, but he wouldn't budge. I took in a de
