Carmen bit on her lower lip as she struggled to not allow her cry from within to slip out of her mouth. She stood still for three seconds, feeling like she was being swallowed by the anguish ripping throughout her heart.Liam gazed at Carmen's back while wondering about what thoughts were going through her head and for once, he felt like he wanted to listen to her feelings, but she wasn't saying a word.At last, Carmen built up enough courage, and she used that strength to walk into the bathroom. Then she slammed the door and locked it.Even though Carmen and Liam had so much to say to each other, the room grew silent since they didn't have the courage to speak those words out loud.Carmen listened to the silence in her room. But after a minute or two, she heard her room door banged shut, and that sound pained her more than she expected.“When I felt your gentle touch upon my

Liam did not reply to his driver's remarks. But he had it kept at the back of his head as he got down from the car. Carmen's smile quickly shifted into a frown when she saw Liam approaching her. He stood close by Carmen's side and placed his hand around her waist. “Bro!” Dax happily said as he walked up to Liam and Carmen. Even though his heart ached to see them so affectionate, he maintained the smile on his face when he met with them. “Good morning, bro.” Liam said. Dax noticed the hostility in his friend’s eye, as he strived to keep his eyes off Carmen. But he found it difficult to do so since she looked extremely stunning. “Good morning, Dax.” Carmen softly said. She calmly then rested her palm against Liam’s hand and pulled it away from her body. “Good morning

Carmen took a step forward as she clutched her fist. She had fear in her eyes when she saw how enrage her mother seemed. "This is not good." Carmen mumbled to herself. Liam bore no emotions on his face when Carmen gazed at him, and it had her wondering about the thoughts that were occupying his mind. “Hello, mother.” Carmen straightforwardly said when she reached Mrs. Smith. Even though Carmen was striving her best to look calm, her heart violently pounded in her chest whenever she stared at her mother's eyes. “Spare me the greeting!” Mrs. Smith shouted. Liam tried to keep his expression gentle. But he felt furious on the inside, and he was using every bit of his energy to restrain his anger. "Well, this is not a decent area for such a discussion. So why don't we move to my office?" Liam calmly stated. 

Liam lifted his head and coldly gazed at Levi. The anger he saw in his Father's eyes only caused him to get more infuriated.“What have you done? Have you forgotten what your last stupid act caused us! How dare you go make trouble again?” Levi yelled.“Why are you here?” Liam reluctantly asked as he sat down behind his desk.Levi stared at his son in dismay for almost five minutes, and the hate Liam could see in his father's eyes had him feeling disgusted.“Went I brought you and your metal mother from the slums, I told you to be a useful son. If you become troubled, then I have no use for a trash like you! This should be the last time you put us in the smiths' bad book because of your stupidity!”Levi shouted.“I am going to ask you one last time? Why are you here?” Liam calmly asked with his eyes focused on the papers in front of him.Liam knew that if he continued stari

Carmen opened her eyes to the sound of her alarm clock, then she shut her eyelid for a second to avoid the sunlight beaming through her window.After slowly reopening her eyes, her sight rested on the male watch, laying on the bed stand.“We slept together.” Carmen happily mumbled.At that moment her phone rang. So she reached for it, then the smile on her lips slowly faded when she saw “mom” blinking on her screen.Carmen reluctantly swiped the answer icon. Then she rested the phone against her ear.“What is it?” Carmen asked while striving her best not to end the call that instant.“I raised you to know better than to answer me in such a manner.” Mrs. Smith's angry voice flowed out of the phone speaker.“Good morning, mother.”“Much better.”Out of frustration, Carmen rolled her eyes and softly sighed. She was using all her might
