"I hate to break things up, but if you didn't call me here to help you bring down the photos of you from the internet, so why do you need my help?." He asked Calla, seeing the mother and daughter duo hugging made him feel jealous, he had to regain her attention.
Calla broke off from the hug at Liam's question. She looked at Amelie, lovingly. "Ame, darling, do you mind going out for a minute? I want to discuss some private stuff with Liam."
Amelie nodded her head and walked outside the office.
"That was a first timer, you usually don't ask her to leave while you talk to me." He eyed her. "What's up?."
She walked to the couch and sat down beside him, she took in a deep breath.
"Stacey informed me yesterday that the grand master called, he said he had a task for me. You know usually when he has a tan for me he calls me directly, but this time he called Stacey instead, and since I came to work he hasn't called me, I also can't call him because it is against the rules." She paused and took a deep breath. "I called thinking you might have a clue on what task he has for me, If it's a personal mission or a group mission."
Liam was silent for a moment, what she said sounded strange to him also, the grand master never called Stacey, he always called Calla directly and gave her the tasks whether a personal task or a group task, so why did he call Stacey instead now?
He rubbed his temples. " I wish I had an idea on what the grand master has in mind, but I am afraid not, he didn't say a word about it to me. You can only wait for his call."
Calla let out a sigh at his words, she might have to wait after all.
They sat there in the office in awkward silence, each had a lot of things going on in their heads, Liam had a lot of questions he wanted to ask her and Calla wasn't ready to answer his questions.
"You are glad that the whole world now knows you are Davis's wife." Liam aid in a nonchalant manner.
She nodded slowly. "I am, because when I am done with him, he would have no one by his side, he wouldn't have any fans to cause me any trouble. So there is nothing to worry about." She said in a serious tone.
He looked at her intently, a smile curved at the corner of his lips, he was glad she still had plans of exacting her revenge on Davis. He had feared she must have fallen for him as he saw her smile after reading the headlines.
"How do you plan on exacting your revenge on Davis, if I may ask."
Calla fell silent at his question, she didn't actually have a revenge plan yet, she was just eager to exact revenge. How stupid if her. She scolded herself.
Liam chuckled at the expression on her face, he could tell she didn't have a plan yet.
"You don't cease to amaze me, most feared and respected one." He said in a teasing tone.
She glared at him. Was he planning to make fun of her in such a situation? He should be helping her out on a revenge strategy not to ridicule her.
"You should be helping me out with a revenge strategy, Liam not to tease me." She said in an annoyed tone.
"It's quite amusing that you married him in order to get your revenge, but turns out you don't even have a revenge plan yet." He laughed even more.
She pouted her lips at him, couldn't he not just rub it on her face?
"I have a revenge plan alright, I just need to modify it." She lied to him in order to save herself from his teasing.
He raised an eyebrow. "Let's hear this revenge plan of your, most feared and respected one." He laughed even harder.
Her face turned pale, she didn't have a plan yet. "You don't have to know the plan."
He eyed her suspiciously. "Is that the reason, or you don't have a plan?."
"Get out!." She yelled, her face red from anger, he could get in her nerves so easily.
He raised his hands in the air as a sign of surrender. "Fine, it's non of my business how you get revenge on your husband."
She gave him a fake smile. "Good."
"So are you going to wait until the grand master calls you, or are you going to grab lunch with me at that restaurant across the road?." He silently prayed she wouldn't reject the offer.
She sighed sadly. "I wish I could, but I can't, I have to wait for the grand master's call."
She added silently. "I can't also go out with you anymore so I wouldn't anger my husband."
He sighed dejectedly. "Okay, maybe some other time then."
He stood up and walked to the door. "Whatever the mission is, do well to tell me about it, I would be happy to help."
She nodded. "Yeah, I sure will."
He paused at the door, he opened his mouth to say something, but then closed it and walked out.
Amelie went back to the office. "Mom, are you married to that handsome man that I gave cutie to yesterday?."
Calla naw dropped, how on earth did sh find out?
She wanted to keep it as a secret and didn't plan on revealing her arranged married to Davis to the little girl.
She nodded slowly. "Yes, he is my husband."
Amelie's eyes opened wide in shock. "Is Dad aware of this?." She asked in a low voice.
