All Chapters of Bounded At First Sight To My Arranged Groom's Rival : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Charlotte's POV An unwelcome blush crept into my cheeks and it burned in remembrance. My breath quickened as the crimson of resentment and humiliation wrecked my entire body.“I love the strength that you have accumulated in you now. You should pick your broken pieces up spark like the diamond that you're,” Aria said, her advice ringing in my ears.“Yes! Charlotte, you should let us team together and achieve our common aim. Which you already know!” Remi added.Their caustic tone makes me ashamed and annoyed. “Yes! Liam has really bitten more than he can chew and must be taught a lesson he will never forget!” my voice was as hard as steel.Meanwhile, my mind couldn't shift from Ruby. Her actions didn't seem like she was over Liam and willing to make him pay for betraying him.But rather she was intending to pay me off our contract deal with Liam just to be in my shoes again. To her I was the reason, he humiliated her.“That great, that the energy we need here,” Remi uttered and her sm

Charlotte's POV My lower lip trembled and my mind went numb. I mean I don't have any of those intentions against them as they're assuming.“You know what? Get the hell out of here!” Aria exclaimed, without a freaking care in the world about anything.“Yes! In case there's a change of plan we can alert her, right?” Matilda was still calm.“Hell no! She's the reason Ruby was humiliated and embarrassed. We can't work with her?” Remi quickly opposed.As I heard Remi's voice, I dropped my eyelashes and bit my lips in dismay. “I can explain. I was a victim of circumstances, just hear me out,” my voice was gentle despite the fueling rage bubbling in me.“Exactly! Let's give her the chance to explain. You never can tell what happened,” Matilda agreed immediately.Then they raised a haughty brow at her. “Never! Unless we have a change of plan after making sure she was also a victim as she claims,” Ruby yelled, and it broke through me.“I'm out of here then!” I spoke calmly, with no lightning

Charlotte's POV I looked at him, and I was disoriented. I dazed in exasperation and I lowered my gaze in confusion. “That's what I was trying to tell you, but couldn't,” Daisy finally got her voice.“He has been here for more than an hour. He nearly drove to Homecoming Restaurant, where you asked me where you were heading to. But then what if he left there and headed to a different place, that's why he decided to stay back here and wait for you,” she explained but it was like she was pouring water into a basket as my mind was spinning in bewilderment.Then William stared back at me, baffled. “Is that my bosom friend, Liam? What's he doing here? I can remember meeting him here the last time too. I was just at his office a few hours and decided to grab lunch at Homecoming Restaurant and I accidentally met you there,” his voice was like his brain was troubled.Bosom friend? What! How on earth are they even friends? Wait a minute! William has been away for a while now, so how did they m

Liam's POV My blood began to pound as my body stiffened. I spun my head around as I gaped at my friend's car disappearing. My heart felt heavy but I still feel like I've done the right thing. I stood frozen, as I felt like my pride had been seriously bruised by this single behaviour of mine.How's possible I'm on my knees just for her to have a change of thoughts? This is not me!Suddenly, my phone buzzed loudly and startled me. I gazed at the caller's ID, and it was exactly the person I was expecting to call.“The web developer we invited is here, boss. Should I allow him to wait or return probably tomorrow since you're not on seat,” Norman spoke first behind the phone.I hesitated as my gaze drifted to Charlotte. “I will be in the office in thirty minutes. But before then, you can access it, and we will take it from there the moment I come,” they said eagerly and dropped the call.I rushed, reached out and clutched at her hand. She tried to withdraw her hand from my grip quickly,

Liam's POV I stared at her in astonishment and was barely able to control the gasp of surprise that surged down me. My breath caught in my lungs and my mouth fell open.“Yes! There's no need for you to ask how, just leave that for me. I will handle that perfectly!” she added as she nodded her head and her eyes fixed on me.I shrugged to hide my confusion but I guess I failed. I still stared at her, baffled, as I took a moment to catch some breath.“Wait a minute! I thought you were sacked a few weeks ago. How did you know about all that?!” I spoke with cool authority.Then she gave a smile that sent her pulse racing, then she shook her head. “You're surprised, huh? You shouldn't be, Mr Blackwood. Probably, you sometimes forget who you are. It's easier to get any information about either you or your company at any time, just as one pleases,” she said and a smile ruffled her mouth.“I know one of the people who have decided to take away from you for reasons best known to you. But…,” Th
