He got far more sober, seeing that Rita was excited.He opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but he said nothing eventually.She would not listen to him now.After all, she was deeply hurt by what he had done.And she would not forgive him easily.He stood up and walked out the door. But he seemed to think of something, then he turned and looked at Rita."Sorry, I was drunk just now.""I know."She smelt the alcohol when he came in. And she knew why he apologized.He was telling her not to take it seriously.She knew it.And she wouldn't even if he didn't say that.She stopped imagining that he would love her after she had been dead once."But I'm serious about what I've said."He spoke when her mind wandered.Rita lifted her head in surprise and met his clear eyes.He seemed to have sobered up.Then why did he say that?Thinking of something, she was annoyed and said in a cold voice, "Liam...""Don't rush to give your answer. Just think about it carefully." She was about to refu
Taking her suitcase, Rita was walking to her dormitory.It was the first time that she had ever come to the dormitory, so she kept looking up at the numbers to find "605".All of a sudden, someone came out and bumped into her.Then she felt her right arms was scalded by something.She looked down and found there was porridge all over her."Sorry! I go too fast. Do you ger hurt? Rita?"Her voice sounded familiar, so Rita was stunned. She knew who she bumped into even though she did not raise her head.It was Nora.What a coincidence that she would comeacross Nora in the dorm.There was some glint in her eyes, but then she calmed down as usual, "Miss Nash, what a coincidence."She gave a polite smile and kept walking.But then her arm was grasped by someone.She turned around and looked at Nora, "Miss Nash, what's the matter?""Rita, I'm sorry that I got your clothes stained.Let me wipe the porridge for you."Speaking, Nora was to wipe the stain with tissues.Rita was astonished seei
"Come see me at my office."Jacob's voice rang again on the phone, Rita frowned.Bewildered, Rita asked, "Why?""It's about the authorization and copyright of your design work." Jacob took a look at Rolex as he explained. "See you in three minutes."".."Jacob hung up before she finished.Holding her phone, Rita shook her head.Like attracts like. Jacob became domineering by association with Liam.She put her phone aside and resumed her packing. It's not until when she finished packing that she set out to Jacob's office.Right now in Jacob' office, Liam sat on the couch cross-legged, his fingers tapping on the armrest. He took a glance outside the office.One minute.Iwo minutes.Three minutes. And the hallway was still empty.Liam's face darkened for an instant.He stared at Jacob, "Where is she?"His voice, solemn, gave Jacob chills and had him sweat over his back. "Be patient, Liam,haste makes waste.'Liam responded him curtly with an "Oh". He shifted his position on the couch. "J
Rita helped him up, but in haste, she mistakenly grabbed on his wounded arm. She could feel he spasm of pain.Hurriedly, she took her hand off him. "Sorry, did I hurt you?""You did...you better start to think about what you can do to make me up, sweetie." Still pale, he smiled slyly. For the moment, he became the funny Oliver again.She backed off a step from him. "I think you're fine, you can still joke.""No, I'm not." He grabbed her hand, his pale face inclining forward towards her. "How about giving me some encouragement of love? Sweetie."Encouragement?Rita wrenched her hands away from her. "I'm sorry. I don't think I help you with that. Save yourself."She whirled to leave but heard him groan in pain.She couldn't just leave him here.He carried her to the infirmary when she hurt her leg.He probably forgot it, but she would never do.Always repay other's virtue, that's her principle.She turned back around, glanced at his bleeding arm, said gravely. "We better go to the hospi
Still, she was unaware of Liam standing behind her.It's the photo all she cared about now.She would never have thought that somebody witnessed her and Oliver and took photo of them.Now she's known by the whole school, notoriously.The comment section was full of comments cursing her, so she didnt read much.She tried to figure out who the poster was, but all she could get was the poster's nickname, an ellipsis.The level of the account was low, somebody must ve signed up a new account just to release the photo.She couldn't get any information about the poster from the profile, but she's certain that the poster must know her, and more than just know her.Was it Charlotte?No. Charlotte was busing sucking up to grandma these days and havent been at scholl for half a month.Then who it could be?But one thing was for sure, this was a vicious attack.Her name was being dragged into mud now.She had to handle this fast enough.The thought of that prompted her to go back the room.But s
Outside W. University, a limousine slowly parked.Liam glanced over the gate, his fingers tapping on the chair in a lazy way. His anger was mitigated on the way and his sanity was regained.He didn't get off the car, which bewildered Jacob.Through the rear mirror, Jacob peeked at Liam only to find him looking at the entrance evenly.His hand lay on the handle a few times, but he withdrew it each time.Liam was hesitating?For all the years Jacob had known Liam, this was the first time he had seen him acted in impulse.And he did this for a girl!He didn't even do this for Joey before.Liam's crazy in love with Rita, Jacob thought.So crazy that he loses himself in it.Liam reached out his phone and dialed Rita's number while Jacob was drifting away."Where are you?"School. What?" Rita asked, puzzled.Liam said plainly. "With whom?""classmates." She answered curtly, glancing over the people surrounding her.Meanwhile, Oliver's eyes glittered when he overheard their conversation. Int
the door closed behind her after she entered.Puzzled, she jerked her head back to look at Liam. "What are you doing?""You're suspended from school for a while."Rita frowned at his answer. "Why?"Liam paused and then asked back, "You tell me."Rita felt like she was being pressed by something intangible when she met his stare.Timidly, she bit her lip.He's mad.But she thought the only reason that he got mad was because his grandpa might get angry when he knew about this."I'll take care of the photo." Abruptly, he said."Stay at home for these days. You could come with me to the company if get bored."But I have classes to attend.""Ill let Jacob find some tutor for you, pick whichever you like."Rita found his answer weird.With the power he had, Liam could handle this all at once just within two days. There's no need to hire a tutor.Unless...He never planned let her go back to school.She jerked her head up abruptly when she thought of that possibility. "You are not letting me
In a taxi, Rita was concentrated on her world, looking outside.Until the phone rang, she came to her senses."Rita, we just checked out the publisher's IP address!" Isabelle was thrilled to tell her the news before Rita replied.Hearing this, Rita held her phone more firmly and became unsettled, "Tell me the details.""The IP address belongs to a cybercafé.""Ok. Now send me the address and the name of the café. I will be there as soon as possible to find out the publisher's identity through the CCTV."Obtaining the valuable clue, Rita couldnt even wait for a second to solve the problem. She was dying to know who wrote that post for what kind of purpose.Only by figuring out the answers, she was able to find the solution.Otherwise, she could do nothing."I must tell you that we've discovered the publisher who is..." Isabelle paused for a second, and continued slowly, "Nora.""What?""Tom traced the IP to the computer which was used by her in the cybercafe. Besides, we have also fou
