I got to the hospital afterwards to pick up mum. I was like practically the happiest person on earth right now. I mean, mum didnāt have to stay in the hospital again. Her surgery has also been successful. This made my feelings go beyond words.
āMum!ā I exclaimed the moment I had seen her. She had dropped in weight from her usual self. But, at least, her mental health was no more a threat as before.
āEleanor,ā Mum constructed with a warm expression written all over her features. I went to hug her immediately. She shook a little from the impact since her belongings were in her hands. āOhā¦ sorry let me get that!ā I told her with an apologetic expression. My hands moved to get the bag she was holding. Mum looked at me with an appreciative smile. There was something about different about her face.
Urrgh! I missed her.
I signed some documents and she got discharged, since Liam had paid all the bills from our agreements
āA-A room?ā Furrowing my brows, I asked her. She smiled before replying me back.āYes, a room.ā With assertiveness, she replied this time. I didnāt even know when I banged my hands on the table, fisting them in anger.The female eyed the both of us as she waited for a response. When none of us spoke, she cleared her voice.āWe'll pay double if you look for another room at all costs.ā Liam uttered. His business man skills was indeed highlighting here, I guess. I didnāt even know how things ran here, but what I was sure of was that I was certainly not going to share a room with him.He made certain hormones rise in me and I couldnāt risk it.āIām sorry but thatās not possible right now. The room occupants are the blood relations of the owner of this place, thatās why,ā she calmly explained. A pained expression ran through the face the instant she said that.The female leaned in with his exposed cleavage, directly in front of him. Liamās h
Curious.Those two syllable words were in tune with my thoughts right now. I was curious about the entire sight. That alone made me wonder so much, for that I didn’t even know when I started drooling.As my heart stopped, my hands became so sweaty, even if I had just bathed. It startled me to see this much of a male's skin, who turned out to be Liam. He was someone I wanted to despise badly. But with his body, I couldn’t help myself.Why did all bad guys have to be good looking?Urrgh…I might as well need help tonight if I wanted to sleep without certain desires lurking in me.My hands were on my chest as I admired the entire sight. His towel, ridden dangerously low beneath his bottom line. As he moved, I could see his toned arbs. His hair over his face made the scenario more dangerous. Why did he have those abs…My hands weakly held my towel as I made weak steps towards him. I needed him to excuse me. I nee
āYour spot? Donāt see how this could be your spot. I mean, it doesnāt have your name written on it.ā she responded, asking me with a savage look. A scowl was on her face and there was a hint of boldness running through. I couldnāt help but wonder what gave her the balls. My fists tightened and I clenched my teeth in anger.But I didnāt just want to give her the satisfaction she wanted. Thus, I folded my arms, averting my face to Liamās direction. I could not stand the sight of the both of them together, for some reason.A part of me wanted to disfigure this doll and break her. But I didnāt know how things ran here. Getting into trouble with cops and law wasnāt what I wanted. This was why I was going to ignore her bitchy attitude.āClearly, you can see the man next to you is my man. If you had any humanity left, your sixth sense would tell you to stay away.ā I let out, after a sigh, folding my arms. This was the politest response my mouth could ever give
Liamās PovI shouldnāt have done that.Pushing red to the extreme. These were not my intentions. I only wanted to her to discover what she actually felt for me. This was because she denied her body reacted to mine, claiming otherwise. She always went on, claiming to be playing the role of my fake girlfriend.But it was something more than that.I just knew it was something more than that.Earlier, I couldnāt have her showing that much amount of skin to the outsiders. This was why I opted to leave instead, during the argument. My other kiss with that slutty receptionist was to pull her strings. I wanted red to realize what she felt for me. To realize that her jealousy only existed because she was beginning to fall for me.Guess I tugged too hard.Because red had disappeared into the thin air, with me left to discover her whereabout.She had already missed her rehearsals. Tomorrow was the ma
āI understand now, Liam. I get it all. Donāt come looking for me when things go bad.āThese were the words I had uttered to Liam before I left the local hotel.When things go bad.Oh Eleanor, who did make things go bad now?In just a few hours away from Liam, I managed to put myself in this amount of trouble. My mind encrypted this as I sized up Liam, who stood directly in front of me, with a cool expression, overriding his features.āLi- āI called out, but didnāt finish up, bracing myself before speaking again.āErrā¦Boss Liam...ā I corrected, trailing out.He grinned widely at the correction I made, giving a terrific expression. Walking up to me, he took my hands in his, holding it like it was something he adored most in his world.āWhat happened, red? How did you end up here?ā he grimaced.āI-Itās not what you think. I-I would never commit something against the lawāāāShh,ā he interrupted, with his index finger
My chest tightened with nervousness and a hint of curiosity on what Liam was up to.Where was he taking me to?What did he want me to see?This made my brain lurk in wonder. The rest of the drive was awkward. This was because no one spoke at all. When Liam did halt the car, we were in front of a building. After reading the encryptions in front of the place, I discovered we were at the hospital.He got down signaling for me come out too. I cringed my eyebrows at what exactly we were doing here. Of all places to be in, I certainly didnāt expect us to be here at all.āW-Why are we here?ā I asked him, reluctantly taking gingerly steps. He smirked, sweeping his hand over his coal black hair.āI could tell you now, but where would be the surprise in that?ā he answered, asking me.And I could turn my back now, asshole.I thought, but I definitely didnāt say it out. Instead, I followed him inside the building. After passing some for
We were able to find a resort with good standards after asking around. If anything, the people of Mexico werenāt bad at all. They were willing to help and held warm, welcoming hearts. Liam and I managed to get separate rooms this time. Since this was a bigger resort, the rooms were more voluminous.A sincere part of me was grateful at the fact that we were now in separate room. This meant privacy to a certain extent and less instances that could lead to arguments. As I retired to bed for the night, I thought of the compromise and the kiss before that. It was like this billionaire had the ability to take my breath with a kiss.And it made me afraid in a million folds.Whatever incidence I witnessed at the hospital today, changed my perception about my celebrity image. Before I had thought of it to be a burden, because my every move was being watched. But now, it felt like more of a responsibility.It was all thanks to Boss Liam, my perspective was c
Still on a spot, not moving at all and a little bit unsure to do. My feet were on the dry sand with nervousness. The dancers had already begun to parade, moving to the beat. It was not until I heard,āCut!ā that I came to my senses.I wiped the little sweat that was threatening to ruin my makeup. I could have sworn, everything froze that moment.āMiss Nikki, do you need something?ā The director asked. I had expected to be shouted and yelled on, just like the first day at Pink Moda. But it was when I realized things were different now, I cheekily smiled. A celebrity model was an important guest that was the reason why.āYes, some water please.ā I let out, pretending to be burning inside. Someone immediately rushed to give me what I requested for. I sipped from it, with my eyes searching for Liam, through the sea of eyes, that were currently staring at the shoot.Liam seemed to be busy with the females around him. I watched with fury, as he whi
