Liam spent the whole day on the terrace, engrossed in the mysterious book, its complex content had captivated his attention, but more importantly it had given him a much-needed escape from the turmoil in his life. But still, as much as he tried to just focus on what he was reading, he couldn't stop his mind from momentarily drifting off. As he turned the pages, he couldn't help but think about Elena and the Simpson family's relentless pursuit of vengeance. While the Simpsons’ relentless pursuit of vengeance didn’t worry him much because he knew the Danvers family could put an end to them if needed. What truly concerned him was Elena. She wasn’t just another adversary he could easily dismiss anymore. She was the mother of his unborn child, and that changed almost everything now. Despite the fact that she was up to no good he didn't know what to do with her.He didn't want to harm her, despite the chaos she was surely going to be causing with Simpson's. If only she could stop with her
As Mr. Edwards ended the call with Liam, he put the phone away, and looked up to see Mr. Reginald Simpson, Elena, and Samuel Simpson all staring at him with expectant expressions. The tension in the room was evident, thickening the air around them.The look in Mr. Simpson's eyes as they met Mr. Edwards' gaze was very, intimidating, a cold and emotionless glare that sent a shiver down Mr. Edwards' spine. He found himself instinctively trying to avert his gaze in fear, feeling like a lump had formed in his throat.“Speak! Did he agree already?” Mr. Simpson asked coldy, his tone authoritative and his eyes narrowing with impatience.Mr. Edwards sighed, a hint of disappointment evident in his demeanor. After the call with Liam, it felt as if Liam wasn't very excited or interested in the deal, and that worried Mr Edwards a bit, knowing that if the deal isn't finalized he might not get paid a penny. “No… not yet.” He shook his head slightly, avoiding direct eye contact with anyone. “You co
Upon hearing Amanda, Liam raised his eyebrow, wondering what Erin could be up to. "What's she doing now?" he asked, though he could already guess what she was up to, and the reason why. He had noticed her increasing frustration with his authority to approve or deny what roles she would be getting. And it was something she had openly complained about the previous day when she was in his office.And it was honestly understandable to Liam that she would be frustrated by him having the authority to approve or not approve what acting roles she got. Her and Liam didn't get along at all for various reasons, and ever since he became the CEO of multiversal studios, she always felt threatened by him having that much authority over her career. What if he used it to try and ruin her career? Knowing that he had the power to do some damage to her career, she knew she had to do something about it. Amanda sighed before replying, "She's been speaking to the board, trying to undermine your decisions.
It was 9 o'clock In the morning, inside the luxurious Lopez mansion, in the kitchen.A young man, in his early twenties, stared hard at his wristwatch. A frown made its way to his face when he saw the time on his wrist watch, two hours had passed, and he was still far from finishing his chores.The young man's name was Liam Steinfeld and he was the live-in son -in-law of the Lopez family.Taking his eyes off his wristwatch Liam sighed irritably as he stared at the dirty dishes that needed cleaning. And after that, he still needed to wash his wife's clothes.Being a live-in son-in-law, Liam had to cook, clean, take his in-laws kids to school, and do all the housework for the Lopez family. Not only that, but he also had to endure a lot of insults from the whole family, even the maids and butlers were above him in the house. His life had become a living hell ever since he stepped foot in the mansion."Liam, clean my bedroom and wash the kids' clothes!" A female voice from the living room
"Ow, what's that for?" Liam exclaimed, feeling pain on the spot where his mother in-law hit him with a bottle.Taking his eyes off his mother in law, Liam lowered his gaze and looked at the bottle that Mrs. Lopez just hit him with, then he shifted his gaze to look at her with a cold expression that sent shivers down her spine. He was sick of The Lopez's hitting him whenever they wanted."What was that for?" He asked in a low and soft tone. Scoffing, Mrs Lopez pointed her index finger at him as she said. "Divorce my daughter, or I'll make your life a living hell! You're wasting her time! Tell me what could you give her Liam? You're just a nobody with no one in his life so divorce my daughter or I'll make your life a living hell! And mark my words, when I say 'I'll make you regret trapping my daughter', I really mean it… I'll make you wish you never met her." Mrs Lopez warned word by word, making sure Liam gets the word through his useless head. And then she stormed out of the kitchen.
Xavier's punch had so much force that Liam stumbled back, he nearly fell when Xavier punched him in the stomach making him gasp for air. Liam groaned as he dropped to one knee, and his nose started bleeding.He touched his nose, and he could feel he had touched blood on his nose which just made him mad. Taking his hand off his bloody nose, Liam looked at Xavier. Feeling rage built up inside of him.Clenching his fists, Liam glared at Xavier, something telling him to fight back. But he didn't, because he knew that would only make it worse for him, Xavier was bigger than him, and he was an experienced fighter. But still if Liam tolerated Xavier this time too, Xavier would never learn, he was going to keep on treating him like a punching bag, and he was tired of being a punching bag. Only if there was a way to teach this stupid family a lesson."Stop, I didn't do it Xavier, your wife did!" Liam explained, shifting his gaze to look at Ella.Shivers ran through Ella's spine after hearing
As Liam was taking a shower, Erin walked inside the bedroom, carrying shopping bags in her hands.One of the things Erin liked to do was shopping. But who could judge her? She used her own money to buy whatever she wanted, unlike her other siblings who still relied on their parents' money.When Erin walked in her bedroom, she was surprised, angry and disgusted to see a bloody shirt on the floor."Liam, you son of a bitch!" She angrily called out his name. "Liam! Get these bloody clothes out of my bedroom now!" She demanded.Almost immediately, Liam walked out of the bathroom, he had wrapped a towel around himself, and he picked up the shirt. Knowing that even though the shirt was bloody now, it will be good after he washes it. Not like he could afford new clothes anyways. He didn't have the money to buy new clothes. He had tried to get a job, but it wasn't possible to work, due to the work that the Lopez's gave him, he usually spent the whole day working the house.Erin noticed the wo
"Get your dirty hands off me!" Erin abruptly and aggressively pushed Liam off her. Now that her mom and brother are gone, why continue pretending?Liam stepped away from her. "I'm sorry." He apologized, even though it was not his fault. She was the one who put her hands on him in the first place, so it was her fault.Erin scoffed. Rolling her eyes in annoyance, she glared at Liam. "You'd better, trash." Saying that, she walked to her king-size bed, taking a seat on the side of the king size bed, she stared at Liam and instructed. "Go get my breakfast." She ordered, without looking at her servant."Sure ma'am." Liam replied, he turned and went out of the bedroom.Running her hands through her silk hair, Erin grabbed the remote, turning on the TV. Her pink lips curving into a smile, as she watched a movie in which she was the lead character. She was so proud of herself, she had reached heights she never thought she could on her own. Her life was great. Well except for her married life,
