All Chapters of Heartache To Hierarchy: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Annalise's POV. The guards arrived, their imposing figures casting a shadow over the table. They stood tall and imposing, their presence commanding attention as they surveyed the scene before them."What seems to be the problem here ma'am?" one of the guards asked, his voice firm and authoritative as he stared at Lara who was all smiles. I was pretty sure she was enjoying her little show of power."Is there anyone disturbing your peace ma'am?" Another asked, I rolled my eyes and made to stand up but Liam drew my hand back and I gave him a suspicious look, however, he just gave me that dazzling smile of his.Lara wasted no time in pointing an accusatory finger in my direction. "These individuals are causing a disturbance," she declared, her tone dripping with disdain. "They're not welcome here, and I want them removed immediately."I glared angrily at her, my jaw clenched with frustration. "We're not causing any disturbance," I shot back, my voice laced with defiance. "We're simply tr

Annalise's POV“Thank you for tonight, I had a wonderful night,” I said to Liam when I noticed we were close to the house already. He has been smiling since Benson and Lara left the restaurant. Shaking my head, I asked,“Why didn't you tell me you own the restaurant?” “I'm full of surprises, Annalise Smith. There are a lot of things you don't know about me but I'll gradually reveal those to you” he spoke like some wise man causing me to roll my eyes at him playfully. I was grateful for his help. Although I had planned to unleash my anger on Lara and Benson on second thought I decided to leave them. After all, the best answer given to a fool is silence but I'm also glad Liam did it his way. “What are you doing tomorrow?” He asked and I raised a brow at him. “Well, I'll be resuming medical school on Monday so I think I'll be preparing myself for it. I can't remember the last time I read a book” I giggled. He nodded,“Good luck. I know you'll do well” “Thanks, Liam. Do you know tha

Annalise’s Pov And soon, Monday came like lightning, I wasn’t even able to get all my preparation done on time as father wanted me to escort him to the airport. Yesterday was… should I say… hell? Even though I had initially planned to go to the school on Monday but had told everyone that I would go there on Sunday so they don’t think I wasn’t serious. Only Liam knew I had planned Monday and not Sunday. Father had come personally to pick me up to school saying he wanted to introduce me properly to the school chancellor. The introduction was supposed to take just a few minutes but father and the school chancellor had taken me on a tour around the school, telling me stories of how Father lived his school days. It was nice but I needed to go home to prepare! Thinking I was finally free when Father and the chancellor said their goodbyes, I didn't know Father would make me go to the airport with him. Who am I to say no? He saw a few of his friends in the airport and introduced me

Annalise's POV. The smell of paint wafted into my nose, and I just stood there, frozen, unable to move. Gasps and whispers filled the air as students in the class turned to stare in shock at the colorful spectacle I had become. My heart pounded in my chest, paint dripping from my hair and clothes, I shut my eyes, my mind struggling to comprehend what had just happened."Oopsie, look who just walked in," a familiar voice mocked. Anger surged within me as I wiped the area around my eyes to see who was responsible for this humiliating prank."You..." I gritted my teeth as I saw Mia standing among the students. Some were holding their phones, recording the ugly incident, no doubt.I was about to say something when I heard a voice behind me, "Oh my goodness! What on earth happened here?" The voice exclaimed, and I turned only to see one of the professors Father had introduced me to yesterday.Moving towards me, she asked, "What the hell happened to you?"I wanted to disappear from sight a

Annalise’s POVGetting into the class, I met Professor Ken already teaching, and gave him a slight bow before heading to the empty seat, but before I could sit down, I heard Professor Ken ask,“I hope you were able to resolve whatever was so urgent with the guy outside. He looked really worried,” “Huh?” Was Liam that worried? But it wasn’t like something was going on in the hospital.“Yes, yes, we were able to resolve it, thank you,” I replied when I noticed the entire class was now staring at me since the Professor was doing the same.I sighed and began to play with the weave bracelet and then it hit me why Liam did what he did. Oh, he can't be serious?! Was he…? I brought out my phone and typed a long message to him and was going to click send when I paused and added,P.S. I love the bracelet. This is the second time Liam has given me such a nice gift, I wonder what to get for him. I'll ask Grandma what date was his birthday. Grandma? No, no, I'll just ask him. I can only imagin
