*Liam*“That's all for today, I guess,” I said as I slid into the backseat and looked at Ryder who was already seated and waiting for me.“Yes,” Ryder confirmed as he ticked off the schedule on his iPad. We just exited the venue for the last table read for Love unscripted. I glanced at the script placed on the hand rest in between us and picked it up. I ghosted my fingers over the intricately written title on the front page— Love unscripted.I dropped it back and interlocked my fingers instead. “When is the shooting commencing?”“Next week,” Ryder answered. “Thankfully, you don't have any serious foundation related work next week.”“And the locations?” I continued. “Has the final locations been decided on?”“Yes. We are going to be shuffling between New York, Chicago and some few other locations.”I nodded. “That's okay. Get the pilot to ready the private jet in preparation. The ‘Harvest Hope’ program is starting after next week, so I can't afford to slack off at any moment,” I utte

*Vivienne*“Stay here,” I told Eric the moment we arrived at the spa. “You can go out or something, you don't really have to hang around.”Eric merely unbuckled his seatbelt and said, “After you, ma'am.”I sighed, already feeling exasperated this early morning. I caught his eyes in the rearview mirror and arched a brow at him. “Did you not hear anything that I just said?” I questioned him.He nodded curtly. “I did, ma'am,” he answered with a firm voice. “And my job is to protect you and that's what I'm going to do.”Feeling like I was already fighting a losing battle, I just rolled my eyes and got out of the car, all the while muttering something about stubborn bodyguards under my breath. But the moment I entered the building, I was brought up short by the sight of Tara, Penny and Nick huddled around the front desk talking in hushed tones. I wasn't bothered in any way by the sight since the spa won't open for another hour and I was already used to seeing them congregated and gossipi

*Vivienne*You know that moment when you start doubting your earlier decision and are now suddenly skeptical about why you had to do it?That was the moment that I am currently in and it sure wasn't easy. My heart was hammering in my chest and I was sure I was much closer to hyperventilating than I have ever been. “Ma'am?” Eric's voice jolted me back to the present and my eyes snapped up to his face in the rearview mirror. “Are you okay?” he asked. I swallowed long and hard. “Of course, I am,” I answered him. My sudden nerves had nothing to do with the fact that I was attending a Pryce event but everything to do with the fact that I was probably mistaken and jumped into this mess with any forethought. Was it too late to head back to the house?But if I do, I would still have so many unanswered questions which would only prolong this situation with Liam. I have successfully avoided him for the past three days, but I don't know how long I will be able to continue pulling that stun

*Vivienne*“Liam?” the feminine voice called and my head swiveled towards it's direction. My eyes landed on a group of women standing a few meters away but what really caught my eye was the waspy-looking woman with wavy brownish-blond bob hair that came down to her neck. She was dressed in a flowing, soft cream dress that showed off her lithe, ballerina-like frame while an expensive looking necklace adorned her neck. She looked distinctly familiar like I was directly staring at someone I knew personally. But, it was only when I eventually looked into her green eyes that it hit me.“That's your mom, right?” I asked even though I didn't expect any answer. He doesn't have to confirm it when it is glaringly obvious. It was like I was staring at an older feminine version of Liam. The air that they both gave off is one that unmistakably spoke volumes of their sense of authority and refinement. I shifted my glance to the other women as they openly gaped at Liam. “Liam, you came!” anothe

*Liam*Feeling an indescribable anger trickling into my veins, I turned away from her and stalked out. Ryder, who was already positioned at a corner sighted me and immediately glided over to my side. “We are leaving already?” he asked, easily stepping up to me and marching my strides. “Yes,” I answered curtly. Ryder darted a look over his shoulder. “And Ms. Reynolds? Are you just going to leave her here?” I faltered in my steps for a moment, the worry etched in his voice nagging at me. And the feeling was valid. “Have Eric come inside to secretly watch over her until she's done here. Then, have him take her home too,” I ordered him as we exited the main front door. “Of course,” he replied and immediately fished out his phone. I stopped and pointed at him. “Also ask some of the Shadows to guard them until they arrive safely at the estate,” I added and when he nodded in reply, I ducked into my car. As I settled into the plush seat, I yanked at my tie and loosened it from my neck
