All Chapters of Begin Again: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

"Stop right there!" Liam barked at her, his footsteps rapidly treading behind her as Eden quickened her pace, trying to outrun him. She thanked her lucky stars when the elevator dinged open, and she squeezed inside and jabbed the button to close it quickly. But she wasn't fast enough. He shot his arm through the small gap just as the doors were about to slide in place. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" She yelled at him. "You could have gotten hurt." "Good, I'm glad to see you care!" He growled as he pushed her to the corner and kissed her fiercely, almost as if he was punishing her for everything she had put him through over the past few days. She tried to resist and push him away. But her heart screamed at her to not even dare. Mad as she was at him, it couldn't go one more day without him, and her body agreed as she pressed closer, begging for more of his wicked tongue. For a little while, they were spellbound, swept up in their pa

Her nerves and shock emptied, Eden stood up, fixed her dress and flushed the toilet before heading to the basins, her eyes clashing with Laura's in the mirror as she rinsed her mouth and wiped it off with Liam's handkerchief. "What do you want?" She demanded, knowing very well she would regret entertaining the other woman. "Nothing," Laura smiled wickedly. "I wanted to congratulate you." "For?" Eden asked as she ran her hand through her hair. It was a bit messy after her quickie with Liam. But now, after her unexpected bathroom stop, it was a hot mess of note. Franco would be so disappointed. "Your happy family, of course," Laura pulled out a small perfume bottle and spritzed herself, sending a cloying cloud in Eden's direction. "I underestimated you, but I must admit, it was a brilliant plan—To give Liam a child so you can get your hands on all those billions!" "I don't have time for your bullshit today," Eden turned and glared at her

His cousins brought the car around, and Liam gently placed Eden in the back before jumping in beside her. "How the hell did you ruin this chance?" Matthew asked as they pulled away from the Convention Centre. "I mean, I hand-delivered her to you, in a black dress and sparkly shoes. What more did you need? I thought you wanted to fix things. That's why I invited her?" "I do," Liam grunted. "But shit's just gotten even more complicated. Take us to Forrest Creek. We have to pick Aiden up." "Why?" Matthew turned briefly in his seat to look at him. "I thought you planned to meet him when you come back?" "I did," Liam replied. "But I want them both with me tonight." His cousin nodded, turned his attention back to the road, and took the off-ramp leading to Eden's neighbourhood. Julian, sitting in the front with his brother and silent all along, stirred to life with the one question Liam would rather not get into. "Why the hell was Eden so agi

Eden sat at the breakfast counter, staring at the baby monitor in front of her and cradling a cup of tea in her hands when Liam walked into the penthouse. "Why aren't you sleeping?" He asked as he closed the door behind him and turned on the security system. "I told Dave and the housekeepers to help you settle in for the night." "They tried." She replied. "But I wanted to wait for you—So we can talk." She looked lucid and sounded calm, and it made Liam very nervous. "Right now?" He asked, his eyes wandering to the clock in the living room. It was 10:15 PM and a bit late for a serious chat. "Yeah," Eden smiled. "No better time than the present, right?" Liam's gut clenched, and the alarm bells in his head went off at her tone. He didn't like it at all, and he didn't like seeing her so subdued. Where was his sassy Princess, the woman who constantly pushed his buttons and tested his last resolve? He wanted to see th

Eden was not lying when she said she couldn't cook, and Liam couldn't understand how she managed to ruin his chicken soup. It was too watery, too salty, and the meat was too mushy. But he wolfed it down with a lot of enthusiasm. "How is it?" She asked eagerly, their anger temporarily on hold while they filled their stomachs and prepared for a possible round two of their Battle Royale. Liam stared glumly at his half-full bowl, thinking of the best way to tell her it's shit. But when he looked up and found her looking at him with those wondrous eyes of hers, he didn't have the heart to crush her spirit. "It's great," he lied. "I love it." And that was his biggest mistake. Eden was only too happy to dole out more of the soup. "Eat, have some more." "Okay," Liam croaked as he forced himself to swallow it down. They slipped into silence for a while as they both watched Aiden play with the PAW Patrol plushy they'd brought back from Forre
