Cassandra’s POVI walked alongside Jason, the sound of our footsteps echoing on the tiled floor and a strange heaviness between us. Well, it would be strange if things were normal between both of us after his flirtatious attitude during the meeting.I didn't even know whether to complain about it or not. Jason had always been nice to me, unlike the way he was years ago, but his attitude today was on a very different level. There was no doubt that he was flirting with me.I sighed deeply after a while and concluded that I had to speak my mind on this situation."What are you thinking about?" He asked before I could open my mouth and I instantly felt relieved that he had opened the floor for conversation already."Jason, I have to be honest with you. I think that your behaviour during the meeting was not cool at all, you didn't have to behave that way," I told him and he stopped walking to turn in my direction."My behaviour?""Yes, it made me really uncomfortable," I expressed and his
Cassandra's POVThe car hummed softly as we made our way through the city streets and I looked outside the window, feeling slightly suffocated for no reason that I could pinpoint.Liam sat beside me while Mrs Berkeley sat at the shotgun, both of them engaged in a conversation with the driver that I didn't bother paying any heed to until I suddenly heard my name."Did you say something?" I asked, turning to the right to look inside the car even though I didn't know who had called my name."I was asking how the tour with Jason went," Liam spoke up with his gaze fixed on my face."Oh, it was fine," I replied."Just fine? Give more details please. What did you discuss? How did he behave?" Liam probed further and I felt my frustration rise."Just business matters, Liam," I replied, my voice strained. "He showed me the production process, we discussed strategies and that's it," I added but he still looked unconvinced."Anything particularly interesting about the tour that you would like to
Liam's POVI was extremely disturbed by the argument that I had just finished having with Cassandra and I didn't know what to do anymore. Was I supposed to tell Cassandra to keep her distance from Jason or tell Jason to keep his distance from her?The two of them were currently driving me crazy and I didn't know what I was supposed to do to stop the odd relationship they were about to form between each other.Obviously, I couldn't tell Cassandra what to do because if I tried telling her to stop the revenge plan, she would get all pissed with me and unhappy. But I loved her and didn't want to make her unhappy which meant I couldn't try doing anything to change her mind.All that was left to do was to make Jason give up on this stupid attitude that he just began and convince him to stay away from her but gosh, it was so difficult.Determined to address the issue head-on, I reached for my phone and dialled Jason's number. The call rang for what felt like eternity before he finally picked
Liam's POVI turned off the television after watching a late night football game and walked to the children's room to check on them before going to my room. On entering the room however, I met a sight that made me pause at the door.Cassandra was awake, sitting up in bed with her face illuminated by the soft glow from her phone screen. I blinked in surprise, my eyebrows knitting together as I watched her. She was the one who always insisted on an early bedtime and yet here she was, wide awake long past her usual sleeping time.“Cassandra?” I called out gently, trying not to startle her and she looked up, surprise mirrored in her eyes as she quickly put away her phone."Liam, you're back," she greeted with a smile that was a little too forced and her eyes a little too wide.Why was she acting so strangely? Did she think that I would be bothered by the fact that she was not yet sleeping? That really wasn't a problem, she could stay up late if she wanted. I wondered what she was doing fo
Cassandra's POVI gasped with my eyelids flaring as Liam snatched my phone out of my hand, surprised at the sudden movement and anger ignited within my chest. I immediately moved to collect it from him but he jumped off the bed."Liam, why did you take my phone? Give it back to me!" I immediately demanded but he ignored me and moved the phone to his face. "Don't do that Jason, you're invading my privacy!""What in the world are you chatting with Jason about at this hour?" He asked, his voice laced with a mixture of anger and jealousy which got me even more annoyed."That is none of your business! You had no right to take my phone from me," I responded angrily and he chuckled."Of course, you wouldn't want me to take your phone so that I won't see you chatting with some other man.""Why are you making it sound so dramatic? I was just chatting with Jason, not some strange man you don't know. Are you not supposed to be calm since you know who I'm talking to?" I complained."Actually, the
Liam's POVI watched as Cassandra began making her way out of the room and almost punched the wall in annoyance. How could she get furious at me when she was the one who was chatting with another man in the middle of the night?She was even chuckling so much and from the messages I saw on the screen when I looked, it was obvious that Jason was flirting with her and she was definitely flirting right back.She was probably reasoning that her plan was working right now and trying to do her best to increase his interest in her while he was probably thinking... I didn't even know what he would be thinking.Jason was such a complicated man so I couldn't ever predict his moves. He was previously so enraged that I would accuse him of trying to get my fiancee attracted to him as if that act was beneath him but yet that was exactly what he was doing right now.I had no idea what he would even do next but I hoped it would be nothing fatal as even though Cassandra was presently driving me crazy,
Cassandra's POVI walked out of the children's room after putting them to sleep and was going to my room to prepare for bed when I saw Liam walking out of the room dressed in a suit."Do you have to meet with someone this night?" I asked him as we met each other."Actually, no," he replied and I frowned. "I'm taking you out.""What?""Yes. We've been arguing a lot these days so I want us to have a nice night together for once," he told me and I smiled. "I prepared a date for us and now, I want you to go get dressed so that we can go out.""Where are we going?" I enquired."Somewhere special, it's a surprise," he grinned."Oh really? Why are you just telling me then? What if I declined your offer? What would you have done with what you have planned?""I knew that you would accept to go out with me and even if you wanted to reject the offer, I was aware that I could change your mind," he stated confidently."Someone is being cocky," I chuckled and hit his chest playfully."It's hard not
Liam's POVI walked out of Jason's company building with Jason beside me and Cassandra and Mrs Berkeley behind me. The launching event for our collaboration had just been concluded and we were on our way out."I hope that everything goes according to plan, Mr Bradwick," Jason smiled as we stopped in front of the car that brought us to the company and I forced a smile onto my face in reply."Everything will, and you will not regret this investment," I stretched out my hand for a shake and he gave me a look that I didn't understand, though I could tell it meant something negative, without breaking the smile on his face before shaking my hand."Have a safe trip then," he concluded and began making his way to the car behind mine while followed by his guards.I pulled open the door of my car and got in then Cassandra and Mrs Berkeley followed before our car began driving out. Mrs Berkeley was dropped off first as usual and we all watched as she made her way inside the compound in which her
