Eyes blinked multiple times, lashes trembled and blue eyes came to view, it was still adjusting to the bright room. Elsa tried to get up only to feel something heavy on her waist, she touched the heavy stuff to realize it was Liam's arms wrapped around her waist. She smiled and met his gaze, whispering a good morning as she tried to pull his hands off.
She had one of the best nights like every other night and was very pleased he wasn't gone yet. Elsa stepped into the bathroom quickly to prepare for school, this is her last week in high school and after this would be her graduation. She'll be going into the real world soon, and according to Liam, all expenses have been paid for college. She smiled at the thought of him, wondering what was out there for her.
Wondering if she could face it all alone, Elsa massaged her strawberry shampoo into her scalp for some seconds before rinsing, she did the same to other parts of her body. She loved taking her time to bath, but since she was already late for school she hurriedly bath to meet uptime. She dabbed a white soft towel on her wet body and stepped out of the bathroom in a robe.
Stepping into the closet, her maids were already in there awaiting her arrival, it seems Liam only sent them away for two days just to punish her. Good thing her parents visited as well as Greg to end her suffering. As for Camela, Liam already promised he'd have nothing to do with her anymore and that she didn't have to worry about anything, she trusts he would do as he has said.
One thing that comes across Elsa's mind is Dax's words about Liam and Jesse being coquettish, she hasn't seen that character trait in Liam yet, but she only hopes he's not that way. She applied her cosmetics to her skin and with the help of the maids, they made sure to massage it into every part of her body.
Still, in her robe, she sat before her dressing mirror as a maid arranged her hair for school, applying little makeup to her face. At the same time, Jesse's assigned maid did the same to her whilst she prepared for school. Her thoughts were clouded by her words with Elsa the previous night, she prayed in her heart that Liam accepts the offer quickly so her brothers can be released. As for Ethan or her parents, she's never seeing them again even if it means staying here with Liam and Elsa till college.
She looked at her appearance through the mirror, at least there were changes in her appearance, unlike the previous day when she could not even recognize herself. The maids helped her wear her clothes as she stepped out of the room headed for the dining room for breakfast. Getting there, Greg was already sitted at the table dressed in his black suit, actually Liam's black suit, which was almost noticeable cause of their different body size. It turns out Liam's bigger than he is.
"Good morning." A voice echoed in his ears causing him to lift his eyes from his phone, Jesse had no idea who Liam's friends were as she barely even lived with him or knew what he looked like. "Hello, Jesse." Greg greeted composing himself around her, he watched her delicate self pick up two sliced bread from the many as a maid poured some tea into her cup. She started at him wondering how he knew her name cause she's pretty sure the number of times she's met him they've never had the opportunity to talk. But being that he's Liam's friend, that thought alone erased her doubt.
He blinked many times, reminding himself she was married just to get stupid thoughts off his head. There's no way he'd suddenly developed some kind of feelings for his best friend's sister, she's still a little girl for crying out loud, and totally not his taste.
"Elsa's not here yet?" She asked Greg as he seemed to be the only one sitted at the table, "They should be here any minute, what an appetite you have there." He complimented with a smile. "I'm late for school so I have to rush this up," Jesse explained blushing at his words, she could hardly take a bite from the sandwich she just created.
.
"Liam I'll be late for school if you go on like this," Elsa said as she watched him wear his clothes sluggishly, he has never worn his clothes this slowly before even if they have nowhere to go. "I suddenly don't recall how to dress up anymore." He said like a helpless child, but all that was in her eyes at that moment was a grown-ass man acting like a child. If she had the strength right now, she would punch him without remorse.
She fixed each bottom at a time but quickly, and the man before her pulled every one of which she has already fixed. Elsa fumed with anger that was getting out of control, "Don't treat your husband so harshly love, handle me with love and care as I do to you." He spoke calmly, his voice and words soothing her heart, as all the anger in her dissipated almost immediately. The smile on his lips was heavenly as nothing else in the closet mattered except him.
Liam is right, why should she get angry at him when they wouldn't be seeing each other anymore for months or more. Who knew Liam had a child-like behavior in him and just needed the right push to bring it out. She fixed his buttons blushing profusely cause of his eyes on her. He had an effect on her that she didn't know her body would react the way it did towards him.
Liam held both her hands in his when she was done, pressing his lips on each hand, he picked the diamond bracelet next to them and placed it around her wrist staring at how perfectly it suited his wife's skin. She deserves all the goodness in the world and more. Both people stepped out of the room to the formal dining room once they were done dressing each other up.
.
Ethan woke up only to be welcomed by the smell of alcoholic drinks and sex around the room, he turned to his right to see a familiar figure lying on the bed with him. What's going on here?' He thought jumping off the bed, stunned at who he had spent the night with. "Jesse." He mumbled and found his way out of the room, in just his shots.
"Where is my wife, and what's that thing doing on my bed." He asked the butler through gritted teeth, passing by with a trolley of food and drinks in his hands, "You came in with miss Missouri yesterday sir, madam left the mansion afterward and she hasn't returned yet." The butler announced with a bow.
How does he find Jesse now? He was only acting upon the pressure from Maisha and had gone too far, cheating on his wife was not part of their plans. "When did she live?" "The same time you got back yesterday." "Make sure she lives before I get back, I need to find my wife." He stated stepping back into his room to wear his clothes, he stared at the woman sleeping on his bed, wondering what he has gotten himself into, he knew how hard it was to make her leave previously, she was one of the girls he calls pest, they get too clinging and annoying.
Ethan stepped out of the mansion, to the possible place he knew his wife would be, her family mansion. He had a lot of explaining to do, and maybe plead to her family to forgive him just in case she's said anything.
.
"Hurry up, we don't have all day Hazel," Maisha yelled at the girl behind her, they were both headed for the car that was already parked at the entrance of the mansion. "Please ma'am don't do this to me please don't take my child, I'll leave and never return, please." Hazel solicited, she could not bear to see them hurt her child.
Maisha knew what she asked was impossible, she didn't want any mistakes in the future. Her son Dax getting married or having a child with a woman as low as a servant was an insult to her family's name. They will be mocked in the society by those who have never liked them. She gave eye contact with two guards who dragged Hazel robustly into the car, there's no way she'd be letting Hazel go especially when she has the chance to correct Dax's mistake.
Even if Maisha found it hard to believe, deep down she knew the girl was not lying about the father of her child. Sleeping with the maids is something Dax was fond of doing to satisfy his pleasure, she had no idea why he didn't have a girlfriend but would stoop so low to get a maid pregnant.
"Good morning mother." Ethan arrived just as she was about to leave.
.
"Master, some group of men awaits your presence in the yard, they say they've got news about Mohan." Harbetto quickly put on his pijamas as he rushed out of the mansion in a hurry to see the people that has arrived. He feared for his nephew ever since Liam took him away, the boy was just a kid growing to learn about his kind of life.
He had calculated himself that day knowing the man would be all alone in the mansion, who knew one man could finish twenty of his men. Harbetto stared at the men in black before him, while Florence watched them through the window. She could recognize the man at the center anywhere, that's Carlos, Liam's next in command. Might seem small but strong enough to pull a mountain, she still could not understand how Liam was able to singlehandedly kill all Harbetto's men.
"Good day Mr. Whyte, my boss asked us to deliver this present personally to you, he respects you enough to not turn this body into ashes and have it thrown in the river. This is only a warning cause the next might be your entire family members." Carlos smiled as instructed by Liam as they placed the dead body on the floor.
Harbetto fell on his knees as he removed the piece of clothing from the dead person's face, he hoped it would be a prank or someone else, but he was wrong cause the person brought to his mansion was Mohan his nephew. These men had the guts to step into his mansion and drop the dead body like he was nothing, this is the height of it. Mr. Black has crossed his limits and he would make sure he deals with him even to the last drop of his blood.
"Tell your boss to get ready, cause I'll be back for revenge." Carlos smiled, "Your message will be delivered directly to my boss.
