Snapped out of muse, Rita looked confused. "What are you doing here?" Why is he here? The astonishment in her tone somehow rendered Liam in bitterness. She doesn't want to meet me, he thought. Let her go, give her the freedom that she wants, he once thought. But that decision lasted no longer than just a few days. That's why he came here today, to have a pretext to see her. But he could only hide all the feeling he felt for her deep in his heart no matter how he pined for her. His expression was customarily cold. "To visit Mr. Brown." "Oh..."Rita replied curtly and made way for him. "How do you feel, Mr. Brown?" Liam walked to Noah's bed and piled the supplement he bought down on the floor. Gently, he asked. "The doctor said that you mean to check out? But you are not fully recovered yet." Though he and Rita had divorced, Liam still treated Noah the same. More or less, that moved Noah. He talked to Liam casually. "I have been here for over a month. It's boredom that I s
A few days later, a subsidiary of the Brown Group got trapped in a scandal. There was a storm of boycott against Splendidflowers Brown on the Internet. Splendidflowers Brown, short as SF, was a luxurious female clothing brand that the Brown Group had developed in recent years. The design of Nathan Murphy, the chief designer of SF, was so audacious and chic that it magnetized celebrities. SF's sales had been increasing while the Brown Group's had been spiraling downwards. At the beginning, all the staff in SF assumed that the protest would cease soon, but it only intensified. The demonstration blocked their stores, and their sales plunged down consequently. And the Brown Group's reputation was tainted. The boycott set the whole Brown Group in a pandemonium. Noah rushed to the company for a board meeting even though he's not fully mended. "Rita, Zoe, I can't have dinner with you, I gotta go to the company." "What happened? You aren't recovered yet, why do they summon you?" Zo
Nathan Looked at Rita with confusion in his eyes. "That's what this is for?" She could just apply for a job if she wanted to get into the Brown Group. Why would she get herself in the swirl? "Isn't that a simple thing to do? Like, way to simple." So simple that made him felt unrealistic. Rita smiled, her eyes glimmering. "It's not simple, not at all." "You'll know." Rita didn't elaborate, she raised her eyes at Nathan. "So, what do you say? Wanna give it a shot or not?" Looking at Rita, Nathan felt like a lay of light just pried open the darkness he was in. He saw hope and warmness. "I'll give it a shot." He agreed resolutely after a moment of silence. His eyes laid on Rita's face again. "So, what's your plan? And, what do I need to do? Why don't we have a talk about that?" "You need to prepare some popcorn... and some beverage to wash it down." Popcorn and beverage? What? Nathan blinked, puzzled, "Huh?" "Just sit and lay back while watching me juggle." Rita laughed li
“Madam, should I prepare the meals now?” Miss Chloe asked.She had been the chief for the Wilson family for very long time now. “Don’t worry miss Chloe, you can rest for today. I want to cook for my husband today.” Rita said while smiling. “But madam…” Miss Chloe was trying to say, but was cut short by Rita.“ I insist please.” “Okay if you say so. By the way, young master Liam is so lucky to have a wife like you, I can only pray you grew old together in love.” Miss Chloe said as she smiled, patted Rita’s shoulders and walked away.Rita stared at the old lady and paused for a moment, allowing what the lady said to sink inside of her. ‘Grow old tougher in love! Was that ever going to happen? She doubted so. It’s been eight years now since her marriage to Liam Wilson, but she could never win his heart. She did everything a wife could have done, hence putting her aspiration aside to become his full wife but non of her sacrifices could move him to love her. He was an heartless psy
In the living room of the Wilson mansion.“Madam Rita, are you okay?” The voice of the person made Rita to open her eyes.Wait, what was going on? Was she alive? She scanned the whole place and saw that it was the living room of the Wilson villa, then she stared at the person and saw that it was miss Chloe, the chief. Getting out of the sofa, Rita felt very weak and could not stand up properly. “You’re very weak so I’ll advise you take some rest. We were supposed to go get groceries, but seeing as you are sick l will go alone.” Miss Chloe said.One second… two seconds Rita still could not say anything. She was so confused.Miss Chloe thought her sickness could not allow her to speak, so he let her be before heading for the door.As soon as she was gone, Rita stood up still in her weak state and rushed to the calendar.SEPTEMBER 10th, 2020.Huh? Has she been reborn back in time to three years ago?No way! Checking herself in the mirror and seeing that she was safe and sound, her ti
After listening to what Rita told him, Liam immediately become very angry , he walked up to where she stood closing the space between them.“What did you say?” He asked.“I said, I want to divorce you.” She says. The next second, Liam grabbed her arms tightly that when she tried to free herself from him, she couldn’t.Glancing at the pale lady before him, Liam was anxious to know what she was planning on her mind, and his eyes were fixed on her as if they wanted to tear her skin apart.Although, he did not know her too well but in this eight years of their marriage, he was well aware of her feelings for him and how she was so crazy in love with him. That no matter how hard he tried to make her understand that he was not in love with her, she was still so crazy in love with him.But today, she was suddenly asking for a divorce. What could have gone wrong now?After sharing the bed with him, and even after claiming the tittle of his wife and Mrs. Wilson, sharing his fortune and liv
Her heart shattered into pieces after what Liam told. Not even the slap that he gave her was as painful as the hurtful words she heard.She wept bitterly and asked him. “But why. I thought you never loved me, why don’t you allow me go.” It was so obvious that he did not like her and was willing to stay committed to their marriage, why won’t he allow her to go then?’He glanced at her with cold eyes while saying, “ You are responsible for the death of my beloved Joey, what made you think you can escape after doing so? I won’t ever forget what you did not forgive you. And for this same reason, I will torture you until you wish for death to come your way.”Although he didn’t actually caught her killing Joey, he was so sure that she was behind it and would make her pay at all cost.“I really didn’t kill her, believe me. I am innocent Liam. How do I make you believe that I’m innocent. Now I realized that I shouldn’t have loved a psychopath like you in the beginning. This was the biggest
After being dragged to her room, the servants pushed her in and left. Rita kneeled down and allowed the emotions she had been holding all this while to fall. She wept bitterly, cursing the day she met Liam and agreed to become his wife.It was when she was in her final year in the university that she had met Liam, back then he was the crush of all the ladies and Rita had secretly loved him without telling him. So when her marriage was arranged with Liam, her joy knew no bounds. She immediately agreed.But now, she was the biggest fool to be done so. She could have rejected the marriage but her love for him blinded her and preventing her from seeing the kind of person he was.Even after their marriage and on the night of the wedding, Liam did not even spend the night with her. He was totally disgusted by her, yet she kept deceiving herself that night he might come to love her as they spend more time together in marriage.“He won’t rest till he torture me, and see me in pain.” She said
