072.CALIFORNIA…“It’s done?” Liam asked.“Yes,” the person answered from the other end and Liam hung up the phone with a smile. Finally, Lucas was taken care of. He would be returning home in five days. He was sure Lucas would still be asleep before he came.Thankfully, they didn’t use just peanut butter but there were also sleeping drugs induced in the sandwich he took; one that would be hard to detect. He was sure that would keep Lucas knocked out until he returned and proposed to Janette.He was sure that Janette was going down memory lane by now, and she was going to hate Lucas even more. He’d heard about what happened a week ago—how Lucas had sey up a dinner date and Janette became very angry.He had simply called to know how Janette was doing after that, and he didn’t want to say he was happy she looked devastated, but that gave him the hope that he had a chance with her and Lucas had lost that round.He chuckled and crossed his legs. “Don’t worry, my Princess. I will be back t

074.Janette quickly moved away from him like she had been harassed and blinked at him. Her cheeks turned pink immediately and she quickly looked away from Lucas.Her head buzzed with embarrassment. She couldn’t believe he heard everything she said. And the kiss… her hands went to her lips and she touched them—soft, moist—as a result of the Kiss. Her heart beat accelerated.She tensed up when she felt someone wrap his arms around her. Her body relaxed when Lucas kissed the crook of her neck.“Jane,” he called, his voice barely above a whisper. Janette felt the tingles in her neck as a result of his breathing, but her throat felt like it was clogged and she couldn’t bring herself to say anything else. She felt if she opened her mouth, it might come out as a croak instead. Her throat had already dried at this rate.Lucas pulled back and turned her to face him. “Did you mean everything you said?”Janette opened her mouth to speak bu

076.Next Day…When Janette woke up, Liam was already dressed for work. She hadn’t been able to sleep the previous night. Even the blood testing she wanted to do, she couldn’t do it either. Her mind was racing with different thoughts about her conversation with Liam, and she could only turn and toss in bed. She was only able to get some sleep after a few hours, and it wasn’t even up to forty-five minutes before her alarm went off again. She got down from the bed and walked to where Liam stood, trying to fix his tie. She took it from him and began helping him. “I’m sorry about what happened between us yesterday. You know, I’m not trying to make excuses, but you know how much I love chocolate perfumes. I even began using chocolate perfumes before I dated and married Lucas, and I only attached importance to it after Lucas told me he loved how the perfume smelled on me. After lie divorce, I still wore it because I loved it and even though it reminds me of what he says about it sometimes,

078.GEOFFREY CORP…“You said all those words to her?” Victor was shocked as he looked at Liam, who had his arms folded, and his back leaned on the chair in front of his desk.Liam pinched the bridge of his nose, sighing heavily. “I got so mad that I just had to say it.”“But you overreacted and went too far if you really said all these things you’re telling me right now,” Liam placed his palm on his forehead. “I already apologized to her and she forgives me. It might GG’s been harsh but at least it brought her back to her senses. I just need to do something to keep her then I propose.”Victor blinked. “Hope you aren’t planning to propose immediately? She might have forgiven you, but you need to give her some time to calm down and process her thoughts. Dropping a proposal on her can seem selfish of you.”Liam’s eyes blazed with defiance. “I know that, Victor. But this is more than just about winning her. It's about showing her that she belongs with me, that she's safe with me. She do

080.After work, Janette was about to leave her office when a knock came in. She hung her coat, picked up her bag and opened the door. One of the nurses held a big gift box in her hand. “This came in for you.” The nurse said and Janette raised an eyebrow. Could it be from Liam? Did he remember her birthday?With a sigh, she took it from the lady. “Who brought it?”“Mr. Lucas’s personality assistant.” The nurse replied and Janette’s face fell. It wasn’t from Liam after all. It was from Lucas, but how did he prepare this? He was currently unconscious. She gestured for the nurse to leave before dropping the gift box on her desk. She massaged her temple as she thought about it, but then it hit her. Lucas must have prepared it before the poisoning incident.With a sigh, she dropped her bag and reached into the big gift box, wondering what might be inside.Janette slowly pulled out a bundle wrapped in a blue velvet cloth. As she unwrapped it, her breath caught in her throat.Nestled insid
