After the negotiation with Liam, Rita came back to live in the Wilson villa.During the daytime, she went to school while after class, she discussed with Isabelle and Tom about the plan.This time, she didn't choose to suppress the public atmosphere, and instead, asked Isabelle and Tom to guide it with quite a few new accounts. In a short time, the affair was widely spread within the campus.It had been the top topic in the school forum for two weeks.As a result, the Brown family was informed as well.This morning, Rita was called back to the Brown family by Amelia in a hurry."Rita, do you still remember the tenth rule of our family?" Amelia on the sofa was staring at her,asking in a low tone.Rita nodded, "Yes, Mama.""Recite ito me.""Be prudent to make friends and treasure the marital harmony.""Exactly!" Amelia murmured and repeated the rule. Then she reminded with a look of deep significance, "Since you are married, you now should be careful when you befriend someone,and atta
"Oh, you must be joking now. Let's discuss this question later in our home." Rita struggled to give him a smile and held his arms with winking as the hint that it's time to stop acting.But Liam seemed to ignore her hint and said with a cold face, "So, you don't agree with me?"Hearing this, Rita was speechless.Liam, that's too much, she thought and he should stop asking the question.When they were communicating with each other, Amelia and Charlotte were surprised.Especially, Charlotte's face whitened.The couple was actually in love instead of disharmony. Suddenly, she was wildly jealous of Rita, with tight fists.Was Rita so outstanding that everyone liked her?She could not understand it for she thought that she was better than Rita. She kept asking in her mind why Rita was always lucky as an disabled and she herself was reduced.Charlotte became angrier at the thoughts.But she hid her emotions and smiled at Rita,"Oh, it turns out that your conflict is about the baby. It's gr
Hearing her words, Isabelle was rather pleased.Recently, almost all the posts in the forum were insults of Rita, who was considered as a shameless whore.Isabelle was going to refute them with Tom but Rita stopped them asked them to guide the public opinion. In a short time, she together with Oliver was highly-focused.And their affair was widely discussed by the students in their spare time and Rita became the common enemy of all the girls in the campus."Rita, what shall we do next?"Isabelle's urgency amused her. She smiled, "Why are you more impatient than me?""Because you are my friend and you got criticism." Recalling those who attacked Rita, Isabelle became outraged, who seemed to fight against the bad guys at once.Friend?!This word deeply touched Rita who almost cried.In her last incarnation, she spent all her time and energies on Liam and failed to maintain the friendship so at last, she had fewer friends.There's only one best friend by her side who, however, finally mo
"Kiss scene?"Murmuring, Liam echoed, his eyesight cast on Rita again."Right."Rita lowered her head to finish her mealafter replying Liam and took no notice of the coldness creeping up in his eyes.Kiss?Vexed, Liam clenched his hand at the thought of Rita kissing other man.No, that cant happen.If anyone dared to kiss Rita, then he will kill him."Cancel the...""The kiss scene could help squash the gossip more smoothly."Rita interrupted Liam as he tried to tell her to cancel the shooting.Her explanation soothed away the coldness inside him in an instant.It's just to squash the scandal. Liam was relieved.The explanation was like a spring breeze, melting the ice in his heart which now turns into a creek. And he no longer scowled. "OK, you decide."Then he picked up a piece of lamb with chopsticks and put it in her bowl.Staring at the mutton, Rita paused for a second.She still remembered how much Liam used to hate her because of Joey's death.Even though he was forced to marr
"Rita, let's go."Liam's voice rang again and brought her to the elevator grabbing her waist while Rita was still stuck in disbelief.The jaws of the staff were all over the floor at the sight of this.Who is this guy? Was the boss possessed by ghosts? He's never been so gentle before!The staff gathered around soon as Rita and Liam were out of earshot."Holy shit. Is there something wrong with my ear? I just think Mr. Liam's voice sounds so gentle today.""You're the only one who thinks so. And it's not just gentle, it's spoiling." The staff all nodded in agreement. And in unison, they turned to study Rita, curiosity filled them."Who's this woman? She just melts an ice-berg."Jacob entered while they were wondering. "TheC. E. O just called her his wife. Who do you think she is?""She's Mr. Liam's wife?" someone blurted, and Jacob admitted silently with his hands fanned out."But people say that Mr. Liam doesn't love his wife." The receptionist asked curiously.Yeah, the rumor was
Rita had class to attend in the afternoon, so she took a cab back to the school.In the classroom."Look, Alice, Rita's here." A girl gave a shove at the girl beside her and pointed at Rita as Rita limped her way in.Loathing filled the other girl when she hearRita's name. "What a bitch. She follows Oliver to wherever he goes, and she's married."The girl's name was Alice Gibson and she had a crush on Oliver.A perfect man like Oliver was way out of league of Rita. She's just a cripple. Alice thought.Such thoughts mad the bitterness in her grew. The faction of hers got into an assault towards Rita."She's so disgusting.""She should be expelled."The curse only got worse, but Rita tried to block them out.She found an empty seat and tried to sit down.But as she tried to do so, somebody stopped her. "It's for my roommate." It was the girl who was talking to Alice. "Find another seat."They just made up an excuse so Rita wouldn't be sitting with them. Rita knew that.Rita glanced ov
Rita ended up going to the infirmary as Oliver insisted."Thanks," she said to Oliver when they left the infirmary, smiling."Don't wet the wound until it heals." Oliver urged her.Looking at him, Rita grinned.Rita found it felt kind of weird though, when Oliver replaced his customary smile with thisseriousness."Rita."She heard Oliver call her and came back to herself, "What?""Are you having a crush on me?" Out of nowhere, Oliver asked. Rita was bewildered. What? What kind of question was that?How did you get from a wound to me having a crush on me? How does your mind work?"I know I'm attractive. But have some self-restrain, Rita. Your eyes were about to jump out when you stared at me."Rita twitched her mouth when she heard his explanation. "I was just drifting off."Come on, don't be so narcissistic."Oh? Is that so?" Oliver shook his head in disbelief. "Cutie, look in my eyes and say that again."His face leaned forward towards Rita so suddenly that Rita froze in shock.Rit
Kidnap her?What does that mean?Thought confused, Jacob trotted up to Liam."Go."Liam demanded soon as Jacob got in the car.Jacob spied Liams dark face through the rear mirror, he asked in a tremulous voice. "To where?""Right in front of you." Liam sad in a flat tone.In front of him?Jacob looked ahead and saw Rita.Thought he was still uncertain what Liam meant, Jacob dared not waste another second.He started the engine. Rita, sending a text to Oliver, was oblivious of the car coming up from her back.With a harsh sound, Jacob passed Rita and parked the car in front of her, cutting her way ahead. Then the rear door open and Rita sawLiam."What? Is there anything.…"Liam didn't give her the chance to finish what she wanted to say and just dragged her into thecar.Under the influence of the abrupt drag, Rita lost her balance. Subconsciously, she closed her eyes in the fear that she would hit really hard.But next second, Liam wrapped her firmly in his arms. he shut the door an
