Liam’s Pov
Red was certainly someone with an odd and eccentric pattern of thinking. She refused my every move to help her, no matter what I did. It was like she wanted nothing to do with me or my money and I wasn’t surprised.
This wasn’t the first, second or third time. If possible, I could make it a zillion times, because this was her personality. It was what defined the fiery type of woman she was. What sizzled and burned me.
And, I could only admire it.
Judging from how she returned the money I gave her on our first day of meeting, it was obvious she wasn’t a gold digger. Last night was an unexpected turn of events. I certainly didn’t foresee her getting drunk, neither could I have predicted what came after.
I remembered her words, “Cheers to the Almighty Liam James, my life is in shambles. If it wasn’t because of you, that model Jojo wouldn&r
Slowly, my head averted back at the tone the voice just addressed me through.Say no heart.Please say no…it wasn’t…him.It was Liam. He sat on the sofa just by a corner I didn’t notice in the sitting room. With his legs crossed, his black oxford shoes shook with a touch of manliness. The both of his arms pressed flatly at the upper part, of the white couch.Like a deer caught in head lights, I moved to face him wholly. With my bag in my hand, I timidly observed him. The instant my eyes locked with his, a vivid recall of last night appeared in my head.The bar.My tantrums.And, my words…My words…Oh my gosh, my last words?!I immediately averted my eyes, looking at the other side of the room.“I…um...I was j-just going back, Liam. I don’t want to be a burden to you anymore.” I muttered.Please don’t ask me an
“H-how exercising i-is done in a billionaire’s world??”What did he even mean by that?Was he trying to once again, show off?“Stop the car, right now.”I seethed to the chauffeur, folding my arms.I could feel my temper slowly rising. The reason I had gone jogging, was to clear my head.And now, being around him was enough to install fury in them once more.“Keep going,” Liam directed in a dominating tune.I sighed.Off course. What did I expect? He was the boss.“So, you’re literally taking me against my will? This is kidnapping!”I yelled at the top of my guts, feeling insanely helpless.“Is that what you’d prefer to call it, red?” he smirked.My eyes, startled, looked inside his mesmerizing green orb ones. They seemed somewhat confident.Damn.How could I have forgotten?He appe
“You keep doing this, red. Whenever I try to take a step to getting close to you, you push me away.”Remembering those words, made me have a void and empty feeling.I questioned everything around me, wondering how the anklet managed to leave my ankles.I mean, did he even know how hurtful those words were?I found it hard to put myself together.I ended up going back to where we horse rode and also back to the golf center.“Excuse me, did you see a silver anklet around here?” I asked the people around.“No, nothing,”I didn’t stop at that, and searched thoroughly. A couple of spots we went to, I even went as far as requesting for the horse we rode. I checked the stables, and the dung, but found nothing.That made my hands really dirty. But I knew it didn’t matter. What did matter was finding the bracelet, and wiping off that look of displeasu
Chloe’s Pov Driving Eleanor to Liam James’ house was simply no big deal for me. Honestly, my best friend had to quench her feistiness and start going after what she really liked. Not some random guy that played with her feelings. These were my thoughts as I gripped the steering wheel, driving down to Orange Summers. “Seems like Eleanor has found her happy ending, I have to find mine,” I muttered to myself with a smile. My intentions were simple. I was chasing the male I met at the bar the other day. I didn’t even care if that would make me a stalker. I just craved his appearance. At least, I hoped he’d show up again. … Just as I drove to Orange Summers, I noticed they were on a Promo sales; thus, they had more customers. I had to share a seat with a certain dude who covered h
“So, what do you say red? Would you be my assistant?”Liam asked.We were outside his private suite, in his hangout spot. While the others, were inside.I fidgeted my hands, nervously looking the other way, as I searched for words.“You’re not doing this from your liking of me, are you?” I sprung out accusingly.He looked at me with an astonished look written all over his facial expression.“Why would you think that?”“What am I supposed to think, Liam? I mean, I can barely keep my job…Talk less of being the assistant of a famous billionaire…”“Red…”“What if I screw it up?”“Red, listen…”“I could make a mistake and ruin it all, I’m not fit enough for you, Liam. I’m—”His lips suddenly enjoined with mine.W-What?I to
“I don’t f*ck virgins, red.”I wriggled my eyebrows, narrowing my eyes at his words. I mean, we were in this intimate position, and he had just muttered absurd.I tugged him to get off, making my way to stand up tangled, only for him to pin me back down.“What do you mean?”I asked him immediately, feeling a twinge of unsureness and humiliation.My eyes directed to his hardened c*ck, before taking a large gulp.“Sorry, that came out in a way I didn’t intend it to…”“What I meant to say was that I’ve never been with a virgin, red.” he stated, apologetically.In relief, I sighed, staring into his amazing green orb eyes.“Oh silly, you totally scared me…”“Come here,” I added frantically, kissing him.His hands slowly gripped my chin.“Never do that again.”I sighed.
Eleanor’s PovWaking up in Liam James’ bed the next day was sort of weird. I mean, if anyone had told me that this was going to happen, I definitely would have ignored it and marked it off my list.It was more like a fantasy; one that I never thought I’d wake up from.A ringing sound suddenly jingled my lovey-dovey thoughts away.Seemed like reality had taken more of the fantasy.And we were far from being asleep, because natural causes would always wake us up.“Dammit,”I looked towards the place the sound came from, 9immediately. It wasn’t my ringtone. Which meant, it was definitely Liam’s. And he was fast asleep, cuddling me so tenderly without even considering or bulging to reach for it.“Get that… would you?”I mouthed off, sleepily.I stretched my hands
Eleanor’s PovThe rest of the day, as being his assistant, was all formal. Though we could feel the heated state, radiate in the atmosphere, neither of us made a move to actually say something to the other.I was barely keeping up with this, because I knew I needed the money.Badly.Without it, I wouldn’t be able to pay up any of my bills.And I would simply be on the streets.Which could be scary.This was why I didn’t make any move to break down.But the instant the day’s work was over, I found myself following the same trail once more.Meekly, I walked home specially to punish myself.As I walked, various flashbacks of the past replayed.The instances Boss Liam had helped me, in spite of my overbearing behavior towards him.While we were back at Mexico. Of how his green orb eyes had look
