Chapter Eleven
Six Months Later,
"Yes, I'll be there, babes. How is my godchild?" I asked with a huge grin on my face as I was kept scrambling the eggs on the pan, balancing my phone between my ear and shoulder. Ashley was graduating tomorrow and she was about five weeks pregnant. I was over the moon when I found out about it and couldn't be more happier for her. I guess the wedding will be after her pregnancy.
"The baby is fine, Em," she exhaled loudly and I could notice the worry in her voice.
"Still on a rough patch with Jake huh?" I asked as I transferred the eggs to my plate. They have been facing some personal problems of their own and I just hoped they would get back together like before. They were miserable without each other and anyone with eyes could see it.

I was busy going through the revenue of last month."You have an appointment with a woman named Emma Lewis from Thomson and Knight law firm, sir," she replied, making me stop my work abruptly. I stiffened in my seat as my breath hitched.Fuck."Regarding?"

"Found anything?" I sighed as I went through the files, racking my head to find some kind of loophole."No, this Juliana person seems to be shady, and not only is she suing the hotel for $50,000, she said that she wouldn't hesitate to go public about this," Liam explained and I frowned at his response."All the food records from the hotel seem to be fine. This is bullshit, dude. I mean nobody takes their time to go all legal abou

"No, please go back to your office," I replied and continued to walk. I had no idea what he was trying to do. This was so unlike him and I was not going to fall for his stupid charms again. I would have jumped with joy if he had asked me out before six months but now it just pissed me off."I don't think you will have that job you seem to love so much, if you lose a client," he shouted, making me freeze. I turned around and walked towards him, anger flaring up my face."I'm sorry, what?" I asked in disbelief."Technically I'm your client and you slapped me, sweetheart. I wonder what Mr.Henderson will say about that." He replied casually as a smirk tugged on the corner of his lips. I wanted to slap that arrogant cocky smirk off his beautiful face.

"Drink up, girl," Anna shouted over the music as Liam pulled her closer to him by snaking his arms around her waist in a possessive manner. I smiled at both of them and emptied my shot glass, closing my eyes at the burning sensation in my throat. Liam and I had finally cleared our bar exams and was offered a permanent position in the law firm. We decided to celebrate and here we were at 'Boats'. This place brought back a lot of unwanted memories and I didn't want to come but agreed for the sake of them."Come on let's dance," Anna tried to pull me but I shook my head as I was not in the mood for dancing."You guys go ahead, I'm just gonna stay here for a while." I gave them a small smile and Liam kissed the side of my head before making his way towards the dance floor with his girlfriend. They were so cute together and I i

"Stop it, just stop lying to me. I saw it with my own eyes." I made my way up the stairs, towards him in anger. He stood near the elevator with a puzzled look on his face."What did you see? What the fuck are you talking about?" he grabbed my shoulders, once I was standing before him and looked into my eyes, trying to figure out what I was saying.He looked genuinely confused."I---I came to your apartment the day you ended things with me. I wanted to surprise you and tell you that I got the internship. When I got out of the elevator, I saw this redhead, walking out of your door and I thought...I thought," I swallowed hard, trying to get my words outright."You thought I was fucking behind your back, Jesus Christ." He finished my sentence and let go of me swiftly. He ran his hands through his hair in frustration and I was stunned by his reaction. He didn't seem to l

"Wow....that's...umm...I wish I could remember that night better," I pouted while he just gave me a small smile and his mind seemed to be elsewhere. I looked up at his parted lips which were plump and wanted to kiss him so badly. I pulled him closer by his shirt collar and smashed my lips to his, taking him completely by surprise. He cupped my face and deepened the kiss, exploring my mouth like he couldn't get enough of it. I stroked my tongue against his and we both fought for dominance. Fuck, I missed this so much. I could feel every inch of my body craving for his touch and we could do nothing beyond kissing here."Even teenagers are well beha

“I’m not leaving you, Austin. I just thought you might need some space, given what happened. I don’t know how you deal with stuff,” I cupped his face and he closed his eyes at my touch.“Stay,” he whispered. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he hugged me like his life depended on it. I had no idea what he was going through but I could feel his pain and it brought more tears to my eyes. We stayed like that for what felt like an eternity before I broke the silence.
