The voice jolted Alex from his place. He knew this voice, this voice belonged to no one other but Liam. God no matter how much he cursed his luck it was not improving at all. Alex took a deep breath and turned to face the man who was watching him with brooding eyes.
"Why do you want her quality to be average when she can make the best cakes of the city?" asked Liam with a low and threatening voice.
"Because i did not want her to be the enemy of everyone." 'and i want you to not appoint her here permanently' he spoke half of the truth and kept the rest of the half in his heart.
Liam blinked as he realised what Alex was trying to say, "you mean others are jealous of her?" though he asked, his voice had a certainty and Alex confirmed it by nodding her head.
"You should not have announced her triple salary in front of everyone." added Alex once he saw Liam was contemplating.
