Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Liam Edwards~

The loud sound of his ring tone blazed through the walls of his private personal gym, He stopped on the treadmill and got down, Using his towel to wipe his neck and face he took the phone from the table that it was on and swiped to pick the call

"Hello!" His deep voice says as his wiped his sweaty face with the towel again "Good morning baby, How are you doing?" The sweet charming voice of his fiancée blazed through the speaker of his phone, A warm smile graced his lips "I'm fine babe, You?" He responded and heard some shuffling over the phone

"I'm fine love, I am going for the gown fittings today and was hoping if you would be coming with me?" Her sweet voice says calmly "Uh babe, I have a meeting to attend today and It might run for a while so I'm not sure!" He says

"That's fine, I knew you would be too busy anyways, I am going with your mother and wanted to inform you, Have a nice day!" She said and cut the call before he could reply her

He sighed and looked at the phone, She was behaving so different from the Samantha he knew! He got that she was invested in the wedding and truthfully he was happy but she behaving like he wasn't interested in the wedding and that was what Irked him. Samantha is a sensible person, A responsible and graceful woman, He would be more than honored to spend the rest of his life with her! Not only was she beautiful but extremely smart as well, She was one of the most reputable lawyers in NewYork city, Never loosing any of her case and sincerely he was proud of her! Samantha had always been an extremely calm and sensible woman, Graceful and confident! He loved that about her. They were just alike! They say great mind think alike and that was the case with Samantha! He couldn't imagine his life without her in it, but ever since he proposed to her two months ago! She had totally changed! Maybe it was the adrenaline about the wedding but she totally changed. All she cared about was the wedding! He understood that she wanted the best wedding ever and all of that but she became excessively demanding! She started to demand a lot of things that he just couldn't wrap his head around, She became so invested in the wedding and that was the only thing she ever spoke about to him, He couldn't spend some alone time with her , without her bringing up the wedding. He had specifically hired an event planner so her work would reduce drastically, He paid every single worker so she wouldn't have to stress about it but that seemed like the opposite thing she was doing. He sighed and walked out of the gym, His phone started to ring again and he checked who was calling

"Dan, What do you have for me today?" He asked his personal assistant on the phone "Good morning Mr Edwards, The people from Sunrise are here and are waiting for you." He says "Oh this early, What time were we supposed to meet with them?" He asked Dan "2pm sir but they came earlier!" Dan replies him "Alright, I will be there in 30 minutes time!" He says and cut the call.

He walked into his house and straight to his room to have his bath, Stripping off his clothes he walked into the bathroom and had his bath, After he was done, He walked to his closet and picked out a black fitted suit and wore his, Using his Cologne and brushing his short hair, He wore his leather shoe. He looked at himself in the mirror and smiled

He is Liam Edwards, A twenty nine year old man and the CEO of Edward's Island! Soon to be married to the beautiful Samantha Millers, His life was pretty great and he loved that! His chains of hotels were famous all around the globe which put him into the spotlight but he was good with keeping his life pretty private, When he engaged to Samantha all the News site, Tabloids and Newspaper were all carrying it, 'CEO of Edward's Island proposes to girlfriend Samantha Millers in a private romantic dinner' but thankfully they all left him after some weeks of constant stalking by the press.

He walked out of the closet and to his room, Picking his phone he walked downstairs "Sir, Won't you have breakfast ?" His house help Martha asked and he chuckled "No martha, You can keep it for when I get back tonight!" He says and walked out of the house

His driver was already outside waiting so he got into the car and they start driving

~~~~~~~

A while later they got to the hotel and he got down from his car,responding to the numerous greetings he was getting, He took the elevator up to his office floor and got out, He could see the people from sunrise company sitting "Good morning, Mr Edward's, You can get settled in and I would invite them in." Dan says and he nods, walking into his office he took a seat on his chair and waited for them

~~~~~~~~

The meeting lasted for about 5 hours, Well he bought their hotel so it was normal to get all the necessary and legal documents. "Thank you, Mr Edwards it was nice doing business with you!" The man says and stood up with his other colleagues and shook his hand "The pleasure is all mine Mr Lance!" Liam replies and watched as they walked out of his office.

A smile made its way to his lips as he looked at the documents, Another property had been acquired. He picked up his phone to make a call through to Samantha but she wasn't picking it. He sighed and cut the call, Dan came in a few minutes later

"Sir, The investor from Ravi's are here!" He announces and Liam nods at him to invite them in

~~~~~~~~

About some hours later they concluded with the meeting and it ended successfully, He was able to get the investor to invest in his upcoming project! The hotel he had just bought from Sunrise and it worked out well.

He was eventually done for the day and he made a call through to Samantha again but she still wasn't picking the call, He walked out of his office and took the elevator to the ground floor, He had a routine and that was to always check the entire hotel when he was around so he was going to do just that

He walked around still responding to the greetings from the employees

"Liam, Is that you!" A voice says from behind him and he turned to see who it was, A smile embraced his lips as he saw who it was, Nate Anderson! His old friend from college "It's you man! I didn't think I would see you!" Nate said and Liam chuckled, It was his hotel after-all

"Nate, Its been such a long time, How have you been?" He asked and Nate shrugged "Come on man, I was meeting with some few friends from college and didn't even remember that this was your hotel, Come on and say hi!" Nate says and Liam chuckled

"Oh no, I wouldn't want to intrude!" He says and Nate waved it aside "Come on man!" He says and Liam shrugged, He walked towards the table they were all sitting and greeted all of them, It had been such a long while and here they were in his hotel

"Have a drink with us for old time sake!" Mikaela a petite blonde says from the group and Liam raised his hand to decline but they all started asking immediately "Come on Liam, We are all seeing since a long time ago, Just one drink with us!" Nate says and all of them chattered in agreement to what he said

Liam nodded and sat for a drink with them, Only one drink turned to two and two turned to three. Until he started feeling tipsy and his eyes started getting blurry

"I should go now guys, I'll see you all another time!" He says and tries to stand up but almost stumbles "Woah woah woah, I'll help you!" Nate says and Liam chuckled "Don't worry, I'm fine!" He says but almost stumbles again. Nate eventually helps him "I can't go home again so I'll just stay in my suite!" He says to Nate, Nate asked for the key to his suite from the receptionist and was given the key, He took him up the elevator and supported him to the suite "I got it from here Nate, Thank you!" Liam says as he tried to stable himself "You sure!" Nate asked and Liam nodded although he still wasn't stable

Nate's phone starts to ring and he looked at Liam "I have to take this, But since you said you're good I will leave now!" He says and walked away. Liam looked at the suite in front of him and back at the one opposite the suite too, He looked forth and back and finally settled on the one opposite, Walking towards it he tried to use his key to open the door but just twisting the knob of the door, The door unlocked! He shrugged and walked into the room, closing the door behind him, He started to strip off his clothes and after successfully pulling it off without stumbling he got into the bed and covered himself with the duvet

He wasn't expecting to wake up by a loud scream...
