Rita knew he must be furious when she saw his scowl.
She gave him a sweet smile and explained, “No.”
No?
Well, he was not deaf.
Liam did not say anything but kept staring at her. Rita got really strained under the stare of him. “Well, I
said yes, but it was…”
She did not finish her words, because she was stuck between him and the wall. “You said yes?”
He looked so angry that Rita felt he could even burn this house to the ground with his anger.
‘My god.’
‘He got angry again.’ Rita thought.
What should she do now?
She gave a kiss to appease him just now. Would it work again if she kissed him?
There was a saying that one would have his weakness for something.
What if he really liked it?
Rita took a deep breath and kissed him again.
Their lips touched, and it turned silent suddenly.
Frowning, Liam lowered his head and glanced at the girl who was kissing him.
A kiss again?
He was that easy to be satisfied?
Although he thought she was being offhand with him, his anger still drained away again.
Rita loosened her gripped on him and peeped at his look to see if he was still angry.
But Liam kissed her back when she just lifted her eyes.
Her heart did a flip.
Before she knew it, her lip was bitten by him. “Ouch, why do you always bite me?”
Perhaps because that hurt too much, her eyes were watery. But her eyes were really captivating, and
they looked like there were numerous stars in them.
Liam could not resist holding her waist. He kissed her on her eyelid and then her neck.
“If I don’t punish you, will you listen to me?”
He was so crazy about her.
Even though he was furious now, he still did not want to reproach her, so he just gave her a playful bite
as the “punishment”.
Resting against the wall, Rita shot him a pout. “It’s a temporary expedient. And it’s just talk.”
“Just talk?” Liam frowned and grabbed her chin, saying distantly. “Just saying it is not allowed too.”
She belonged to him, and she would only be with him.
Even she was just saying, she should only say she would marry him.
But Liam was just thinking it, he did not confide to her.
Nevertheless, Rita was a bit moved when she sensed his possessiveness.
Before she thought it through, she was mesmerized by him and echoed, “OK.”
Liam smiled in satisfaction and rubbed at her hair tenderly. “That’s my girl.”
Rita was somehow speechless.
She felt like she was a bad schoolgirl who was praised by the teacher.
‘Forget it.’
She would carry through on her promise.
And she did not want to say anything else to upset him.
During this break, she found Liam was more possessive. She felt like he would even confine her if she
dared to leave him again.
When her mind wandered, Liam took a step toward her and spoke to her abruptly, “When will you stop
playing around?”
“What?” Playing around?
Rita was puzzled. Then she lifted her eyes and looked at his face with chiseled features, her eyes
blinking.
Liam saw she was staring at him with a puzzlement. Then he held her chin to force her to look into his
eyes and said seriously, “When will you break up with Michael?”
When she met his gaze, she rolled her eyes, “After a week.”
“When?”
“Six days.”
“What?”
His forehead was still bunched in a frown. Apparently, he was disgruntled by her answer. Rita gave a
wry smile.
She knew he did not want her to have any connection with Michael, but… Even though she was reborn
and she knew what would happen, she could not push it.
She should wait the chance to take action in the right time.
And she needed to wait until the turning point occurred.
Only when it occurred, would she be able to fight back.
In her previous life, it occurred three days later.
And she would take two to three days to make some people confess.
Therefore, she needed at least five days to plan this.
Although five days might not be enough, she thought she could make it if she tried hard.
Rita gnashed her teeth, “Five days.”
Liam saw Rita would not made concession again and nodded, “OK, done. But if you have any contact
with him in the sixth day, I will kill him.”
Liam compromised not because he was wavering but because he had his own concerns.
Rita was right. They had been acting in front of Michael for some time. And their efforts would be in
vain if they did not continue their plan now that Michael began to believe them.
It was easy for him to destroy P. Group, but he could not root out it.
Michael had been abroad for all these years. And he did not come back until recently. Then why would
he, a gentle surgeon, be able to cause the tempest?
And how could he bring away Nora in front of him?
Michael must have spied on him.
He also needed to reorganize his company and find out who the traitor was during these days.
They had slept for a long time. And now they were hungry, so they were going to make something to
eat.
“Liam, Ryan Wilson has come back. He is quite aggressive, and I’m afraid that…”
Jacob came in anxiously. Then he saw Liam was wearing an apron and washing the vegetables. He
turned silent immediately, and his jaw went slack.
Liam was washing vegetables?
How rare it was!
Although he was shocked for a while, he soon thought it through.
After all, he had seen Liam acting strangely these days.
In the dining room, Liam raised his head and had look at Jacob. Then he looked back at the celery in
his hands again. “What? He wanted to take over the company?”
“No.”
“Well?” Oddly.
“He said he would come to work at the company tomorrow.” Jacob told Liam bluntly.
Then he got closer to Liam to see his look.
But Liam was still impassive, and Jacob was unable to find out what he was thinking.
“If he wants to go to the company, then so be it.”
Liam agreed easily, which unnerved Jacob. “He always wants to replace you as the master of the
Wilson family. Aren’t you giving him the opportunity to find something on you if you allow him to work at
the company?”
Rita was cutting the meat, but she paused for a second when she heard that.
Although she felt she never integrated with the Wilson family, she still knew how cruel they were.
It was an acute and fierce competition for the CEO of the Wilson Group back then.
Although they were related by blood, they still tried to beat others and even wanted to kill their families.
It was said that a lot of people died at that time. And Liam almost became one of them too.
After that, Liam solidified his position by his tough action and with the help of Jim.
He seemed noble, but Rita knew it was not that easy for him to maintain his position for years.
So many people were watching him. As long as he made a mistake, others would try to take the
chance to defeat him.
When Jim was still alive, he was able to manage them. But…
When Rita was still thinking about that, Liam suddenly said, “Do you think he is able to make trouble for
me?”
Jacob had a twitch on his lips. “He might be not. But he wants to spy on you. Today someone told me
that he began to persuade others in the Wilson family to ask you marry Emma. She is a very capable
woman with distinguished background, so most of them have agreed.”
Rita tightened her grip on the knife when she heard Emma‘s name.
