She rushes into her bathroom and starts taking her bath, and by 5:30 am, she's already done, dressing up in her blue vest and knee-length black skirt.She doesn't want her mother to suspect that she's no longer working for the Benson Group, so she dresses up like she's going to work.She walks to her room mirror and combs her long blonde hair, packing it into a bun, and she applies a little lip gloss on her thin red lips.She wears her earrings and finally walks to her bed, carrying her phone and debit card, ensuring all her things are intact.

CHAPTER 122: Gets dramatic

Liam is quiet, and his fist tightens as he never knew about the hidden cameras, meaning those silly security men actually watched him making love to Anita."Liam. No wonder you were happy that Friday. But why would you send her away and allow us to go visit the Patricks? You should have told me, and we would have gone to see her family instead," Mrs. Juliet blames her husband."No!" Mr. Taiye stands up."Liam had told me, severally, he doesn't like his secretary. I asked him before discussing with Mr. Tunji about her transfer, and Liam clearly denied ever loving her nor liking her. He's here, you can ask him. And son, I will only give you today's grace. Tomorrow, you are to go to the company as you already signed your position. Don't force me to take a drastic decision on you.""You won't do that, honey!" Mrs. Juliet interferes."Then warn your son!" Mr. Taiye warns and walks out angrily, handing over his suit to Silas, who escorts him to his black Mercedes-Benz parked in the Jacksons

What do you want, and how can we help you?" Mrs. Tonia completely ignores Temisa as she stares at the handsome dark man in front of her.He looks well-mannered and too handsome with his short beard, and Liam clears his throat and speaks to her."Is Ani

CHAPTER 126: Family worries

Mrs. Tonia sits in the dining room with her four daughters."Has Anita's number connected?" she asks Flora, who keeps dialing Anita's number."No, Mom. It says switched off.""Hmph," Mrs. Tonia sighs and stares at the soup getting cold on the dining table."We cannot continue waiting for Anita. When she gets home, she can eat hers. Let's eat."The dining table falls silent, as it is almost 10 PM. Just then, Flora's phone rings out as she keeps it on the dining table in front of her. Flora hurriedly drops the bowl of water she was about to use to wash her hands, stares at the caller ID, and frowns a little, thinking it might be Anita."Who's that?" Mrs. Tonia asks hopefully."It's her boss, Mom," Flora frowns as she stares at the call that ends without her picking it up."Maybe he's calling to find out if Anita has arrived. Pick it up first," Mrs. Tonia instructs, and Flora finally picks up the call."Hello," Flora speaks first."Hi, it's me, Liam," Liam's voice strikes her eardrum, an

CHAPTER 127: Looking for Anita

"Yes, come in," Liam's voice answers from within. Temisa finally pushes the office door open and walks in, while Liam looks up in surprise, not expecting to see her."Hi, good afternoon," Temisa greets as she walks up to his desk, uncomfortably standing across from him."Sit," Liam says, and Temisa notices he looks worried, suspecting something fishy is going on between him and Anita.'Why does he look like this?' she wonders as she sits across from him. Liam gestures for her to explain why she's there."Why are you here?" he asks, meeting her gaze. Temisa smiles worriedly."It's about Anita," Temisa replies, noticing a glimpse of light in his eyes at the mention of Anita, making her frown."How about her?" Liam asks, trying to hide the fact that he's seriously worried about Anita's disappearance."Have you heard from her?" he questions Temisa again. Temisa finally breathes out in relief."No, not really. I've been trying her number, but it isn't connecting, and I'm worried about her.

CHAPTER 128: New job

"Liam, but why's that? Did she resume at Blues instead?" Mrs. Juliet asks as she turns to face him."No, Mom. I think she traveled or something. I haven't seen her yet," Liam replies as he climbs the first flight of stairs. He sees his mother smile at him, making his heart calm, as he had thought she might look sad."Not to worry, son. You will get to see her, okay.""Okay, Mom."Liam heads back upstairs to his room and later returns downstairs to have dinner with his family. The dining table is silent as they eat in silence.***Anita stays back in the village, touring around with Alice, who shows her the village school, market, and neighborhood.

"Hello," Flora immediately picks up."Hi, it's me, Liam," Liam responds."I know," Flora replies as she's home alone in their living room, watching Bollywood movies."Is Anita back home yet?" Liam asks hopefully, and Flora sighs."No, she called yesterday and told us she wouldn't be home yet, till further notice.""Why?" Liam asks in a faint voice, and Flora replies, "I don't know.""Did she mention where she went?" Liam asks again."No... I didn't get to speak to her as my mom took my phone and spoke to her instead. When I tried to reach out to her again, her line wasn't connecting, even till now," Flora explains."Hmph. So, you don't know when she will be back?" Liam asks again."No, I don't. But when she's home, I will let you know.""Okay. Thank you."

What's really going on? he wonders."Actually, ma'am, I heard from her friend that she's going through a lot, and I don't know if I can help, but perhaps that will make her return.""Help with what?
