All Chapters of Bounded At First Sight To My Arranged Groom's Rival : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Liam's POV Shit! I should have asked her that last night. How's it possible that the Millers will agree to her ridiculous plans when I have already humiliated their daughter previously? “All this information you're spilling right now, is of my relevance to the Blackwood Corporations. I hope you know that?!” my voice was hoarse with frustration.“We just want to know her interests with the Blackwood Corporation, anything else is not our darn business!” Norman cradled his head in his trembling hands and his brows furrowed. “What about we discuss with Ruby? I'm sure she should have something to say about this,” he suggested.“What?! Ruby! Hell no! She's the cause of everything we're facing right now and there's no way I'm reaching out to her,” I replied eagerly and took my gaze away from him.Then he was mute for a while and he suddenly cleared his throat. “What about fulfilling the price, boss? This contract is the hope of this company and we can't afford to go bankrupt,” he spoke, hi

Charlotte's POV I stared at afar as I suspected that someone strolled in and went out again. I listened with bewilderment just to hear another murmur. But went silent.I tried to pull away a bit from William but he drew nearer to me. “Are you okay?” He enquired with his brows drawn together.“Didn't you notice someone's presence here earlier?” I uttered with confused brows.Then he spun his head around and gaped at the next partition and he shook his head. “No one is here,” he added.Meanwhile, I'm sure someone was there just so that I didn't see the person's face. “Are you full already?” He asked again as I seemed uncomfortable.“Yeah, send me back home please,” my voice was almost loud as I stood up and took my handbag.William's dark eyes showed disbelief as he stared at me baffled. Before he realised I was at the next partition.For a moment, I could no longer sit close to him as I felt different. Probably it's my own thoughts driving me crazy. Or that's my reality?It's even more

Liam's POV As the driver stopped the engine at the twinkle of an eye, I dashed out of the car, and before I realised, I was in my office.I clenched my teeth as I rested both hands on my table as the anger and humiliation seethed in me. “Shit! What a fuck! How dare…!” I bit my teeth hard.Suddenly, all my pleasures left me and a flash of wild grief washed over me. I felt ice spreading through my stomach as the pain was suffocating me.My hands trembled as I opened the diamond I had wanted to surprise her with. It was the only edition in the whole of New York, and I couldn't imagine how it would suit her shiny finger.My mind refused to accept that this had failed for the 100th time. Yes, that's how it feels to me. Moreover, the torment of the presence of that scumbag stabs me deeply in my heart like I'm about to lose it all.Swallowing the lump that had risen in my throat, my trembling index finger roamed on its shiny surface, and it was like a reflection of my efforts being shattered

Liam's POV Immediately after the board of directors meeting together with Darcy as the centre of the discussion, everything went well and easily.“Mr Blackwood, it's past our closing time, and I'm very happy; everything went on well as expected,” Norman expressed his happiness.Meanwhile, I didn't know why I felt different. I mean I should be happy that finally I'm not going to lose this billions of dollars deal.I lay both hands on the metallic frame around the corridor, and my breath was slow. I couldn't figure out what was wrong, but I knew all wasn't well with me.Added to my disappointment was a feeling of guilt that suffocated me. But the night was still young and the breeze was chilly but I was sweatingFor a moment, I couldn't stand still as I was waiting for Norman to make things set before we left home. Then I paced up and down at the corridor's path and I wish that could give me a clearer mind.As my mind whirled, my phone rang loudly and broke through my thoughts. I paused

Charlotte's POV It was 7pm. As planned already I accentuated my curves in my exquisite evening dress with some mild makeup just to enhance my beauty to get ready for the dinner at William's abode.Meanwhile, by then Estella was through her dressing and hop outside without saying a word to me. Usually, she behaves weirdly and I know her so I don't get worked up for nothing.“Charlotte!” She yelled my name from the living room but I decided to be mute as I turned to check myself in the mirror.My reflection was glaring at me as it sang songs of praises to me. In order not to get on her last nerves, I raced outside in a hurry.Before I stepped down from the stairs, her facial muscles tightened and without missing words feels like strangling me with her bare.“What kept you so long, Charlotte? Freaking thirty minutes!” Her cheeks reddened but I burst out laughing.“Come on, why are you like this? You seem to be in a haste to see William. What are you not telling you?”“What I am not telli
