Liam's POV

My fingers wrapped around the metallic frame in the corridor as I watched Charlotte climb the elevator and I could feel my heart hammering in my chest.

My gaze remained fixed on her until the elevator lowered her to the ground. My right hand, which held hers, remained still as if it was numb.

I've remained rooted to the ground floor and I can't hide my disappointment. I mean how did it happen?

My mind raced as the only thing I remembered was gulping a few bottles of whiskey, and someone walked in.

To me, that was Charlotte, my own. What was I thinking?

Yes, the moment she strolled in, that was what I murmured. I could recall that. And the words that echoed in my ears were, “Yes, this is Charlotte.”

That bitch was actually up to something. I didn't realise all this while. A manipulator! Wait, she wasn't even bothered a bit about her dismissal; everything seemed normal to her.

“Mr Blackwood, are we leaving now?” Norman asked and the burning rage in me exploded.

    Liam's POV “When did you get married again after what happened between you and Miss Ruby? Was she the reason behind the stone you pulled that day?” She added.Instantly, my body was tense and my heart fluttered wildly. I pinched my lips together and a bitter smile clouded my face. “I think that will be all for now!” I said and was about to stroll away.“But viewers would like you to answer that question, Mr Blackwood,” as she uttered those words, I was far away from her, and the guilt was eating me up already.I sighed as I let out a low growl at all the horrible thoughts that crossed my mind. I shouldn't have stood to answer any of her stupid questions in the first place.We arrived in front of the detective's office, and he opened the door for me even without knocking. “He's aware of your arrival already, Mr Blackwood,” the police officer said and I gave a brief smile.“Who do we have here? Since the demise of your father, you have decided not to visit us here again,” the detective

    Liam's POV The moment Norman left with Cathy to the boutique like I instructed, my phone buzzed loudly and broke through my thoughts. As I rose and my eyes fell on the caller ID, I was frozen. An unknown number?Then pressed on the reply button and instantly a husky deep voice echoed in my. “Hello, I hope I'm speaking to Liam Blackwood?”“Yes! Who are you?” I asked quickly.“This is detective Sampson and I'm calling you to the kidnappers that kept Miss Charlotte Knight hostage,” the caller introduced himself behind the phone.What! Detective Sampson?! He's the one who's in this case. No way!“Oh, you mean my wife? That's great. Do you need any vital information from us?” I hesitated before responding.“Oh, my bad, I didn't think she was your wife. Anyways, how are you all doing?” He questioned.Wow! I slowly released my breath as I didn't know why I was able to admit to the detective that truly Charlotte is wife. Even though truly all this charade is not real.However, as my gaze tr

    Charlotte’s POV As Liam banged the door behind him, my heart hammered in my chest and I couldn't think straight. A shiver of emotions ran through my body and my spine stiffened as I gape at the door. I tried to fight my tears but failed.I shook my eyes not realising how tears had already started to clouded it. My lips trembled violently as my teary gaze found its way to Daisy glaring ones. By then Ethan's facial muscles tightened up and his eyes were fixed on the ceiling as she murmured some words on his lips.“Hey, you don't need to do this. It's not worth it. We're here for you, you know?” Daisy spoke in a consoling form.“Do…do I really deserve this!” Just as those words escaped from my lips, a teardrop fell and then it streaming down on my face like an open river bank.Daisy crawled towards me and embraced me with open arms. “Come on, you don't need to do this. Okay?”Suddenly, Ethan's gaze drifted and fell on us. Even before he utters a word he pressed his lips and a bitter s

    Liam's POV “Charlotte! I…I can explain please,” as those words escaped from my lips, Cathy let go of my hands abruptly.“Let go of my hands!” Her voice was like a venom.“Liam Blackwood, be a man and stop behaving like a coward. I know who you want as I stare at you. However, you're behaving like a coward,” Ethan's cold voice broke through me and my knuckles turned white.“Such an insult! What the heck do you mean by that rubbish you just vomited?!” The fueling rage in me was evident.Ethan rose on his feet and took a few commanding steps towards me. “You know exactly what I mean, Mr Blackwood!”“You know my interest in this? You know what will make me have an issue with you? I won't blab much! You definitely know what I'm talking about!” Ethan's voice was like a threat to me.“Are you threatening me, Ethan?! Really?” I couldn't believe it.“It's not a threat Liam Blackwood! It's a promise!” He added, not even blinking his eyes.“Stop this! Stop all this!” Charlotte yelled.Cathy his

    Charlotte's POV As I responded and my gaze frantically went back on Liam, his face turned upside down. “What!” The lady yelled and my mouth fell open.“You're married to her already. So…what is it with the proposal again? Was that a joke!” She bit her lower lip as she paused with her gaze glued on Liam.“Or wait a minute! You…did that to reassure her you will always be with her regardless of anything at all! Huh?” She added as she raised a haughty brows but Liam was still mute.All of the sudden, my brother rose to my side. “Calm down and relax. You know your marriage with him is not based on commitment. I mean it's complicated,” he advised as he whispered into my ears.Instantly, my body reacted to those words and my legs trembled. And Liam's unfiltered words echoed in my ears when we signed our marriage certificates. “You're going to answer Mrs Blackwood for just a year,” he said nonchalantly without a freaking care in the world about anything.Yes, not just that this whole fiasc

    Liam's POV My eyes frantically went back and forth as I knelt on one knee. And the familiar name ranged in my ears like a deafening siren. Catherine Dawson?! Meanwhile, my posture stiffened and I was sucking in a quick breath. My thoughts whirled and my heart hammered beneath my rib cage as I couldn't believe she's really the one.I spin my head around as I gape at the door waiting to set eyes on this particular Catherine Dawson.“I will marry you, Liam Blackwood. Let's make this real this time around!” Just as those words escaped into my ears and I wanted to spin my head towards Charlotte, the woman I've been wanting to make it right with, the door creaked open and my stomach sank.I was frozen and chills went down my spine. My eyes widened at this young lady who was strolling towards us and I was frozen. In prison's uniform? How…how?I couldn't move my body as it seemed stiffened and my heart fluttered wildly. As she got closer my stomach dropped and my mouth fell open.“What…what
