Chapter 121_ She is alive?! 3
A guard walked into the living room and bowed “Master… young master has arrived” he announced and was dismissed by old Grayson.
Angie fanned herself with her fingers, Liam has arrived and she was sure that rude lady must have come with him also.
“Mum… relax! you worry too much” Nicholas said squeezing her palm.
They all heard footsteps approaching the living room until they came in view.
Liam came in with Amelia, they had a never ending smile on their faces.
Allison glared furiously at Amelia, she stared at Amelia’s tummy which was still flat. She suddenly recalled that Amelia was pregnant.
“Big bro… we have a problem I completely forgot to mention that she was pregnant” she whispered
Fred lifted a brow, that wasn’t the case they only brought up that rumor to plant a seed of doubt in Liam’s mind against Amelia.
“That was a cooked up story” he hushed her back but Allison wasn’t convinced at all, the nurse back at Liam’s house told her clearly that Amelia was pregnant.
Liam took a seat and pulled Amelia to sit beside him. He met his grandfather’s gaze and sneered at him.
“So I’m here and that too with my wife… tell us what you want and no beating around the bush”
Amelia flashed a smile at Allison, she noticed that Allison had been staring at her for a while now.
“Yeah…. his wife” she repeated and chuckled, Liam massaged his head. He could feel an uproar coming soon and he wasn’t in the mood to argue.
“Only for a few more days” Allison randomly said hoping to annoy Amelia.
Amelia was about to retort but felt a squeeze on her hand, she shot Liam a look.”You know I can’t stand any of them even for a second” she spat out.
“We had a deal…. and I’ve done my part now it’s time for you to do your own part” Liam said camly. facing old Grayson.
“You were such a fool for thinking that I would ever partner with you…. you’ve been tricked Liam Grayson …. now you worth nothing” old Grayson mocked.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Liam rose up to his feet “Everything you own now belongs to my mother”
“And she is dead! the poor thing didn’t even get the chance to put everything she ever owned under your name”
Liam nodded his head in understanding, so he was right, his mother owned most of the Grayson’s wealth.
“Okay! enough of all these properties and wealths the most important thing here is my wedding with liam”
Nicholas and his mum sighed how could they explain it to this fool that there would be no wedding as far as mark was not in their custody any more.
“what wedding?” Amelia asked sharply
“Don’t you know? this weekend I will be getting married to Liam and you won’t be able to do anything about it!”
Liam frowned “I’m very sure you are talking about a different Liam other than me”
Allison’s face darkened, if Liam didn’t co operate she will be a laughing stock till the end of days. She alone knew how much she had bragged about this wedding to everyone.
“What are you talking about? don’t you know that she was betrothed to you?” Angie interjected.
“And guess who else has a son… if Liam’s marriage with her doesn’t work then set up your son with her!” Amelia suggested to earn a glare from Angie.
Nicholas sat up when he heard Amelia speak, even if he was mentally ill he would never get married to such a lousy and spoilt lady like Allison.
“Do you think that I will get my prince married to this mad woman?…
Angie blurted out but it was too late to take it back she saw the smirk that formed on Amelia’s lips.”And so Liam is fit to marry a mad woman? Aren’t you just selfish?”
Angie pointed a finger at Amelia “Don’t speak to me in that manner”
Amelia grabbed Angie’s finger and twisted it until a soft gasp escaped from Angie’s lips. “Don’t point your filthy finger at me or else I will chop it off”
Meanwhile…..
Martha pulled Abby’s ears which earned a scream from Abby.
“Ouch… mum let go!” Abby screamed and wriggled her way out of Martha’s grip.
“You ran away from home just to be here, do you know how many proposals came for you while you were away and what of the blind dates I arranged for you? you left them waiting at various places claiming to be on your way and here you are!”
Abby folded her arm with her face scrunched, she had tried to reason with her mum about her obsession to get her married off quickly.
“I didn’t ask you to set me up on dates!” she defended herself.
“So do you want to spend the rest of your life alone? and what did I tell you about staying away from that cursed boy?”
Abby’s eyes widened “Are you referring to Liam as a cursed boy? you know no matter what you say about him I won’t see him that way”
Martha tapped Abby’s head “You better do! once this meeting is over we are going back home…. I want you married off before this year runs out!”
“I don’t want to get married to anyone! I have a right to choose who I want to get married to!” she spat back.
“If I wait for you to choose then I’m sure you are going to die as a spinster!” Martha breathed out In anger. She didn’t want her daughter to end up like her. She squeezed Abby’s arm.
“Tell me if there’s someone you have in mind already, I will set up the alliance”
Abby bit her lips in deep thought, if she told her mum that she was interested in one of Liam’s friends she wouldn’t even consider it.
“There’s no one yet but if there ever is I will let you know” Abby promised but crossed her fingers behind her back.
Martha smiled sweetly at her, Abby forced a smile back but deep down she was hurt, the woman who she called her mother tried to murder her favorite aunt.
She wasn’t Martha’s biological daughter but she was treated like one. Martha had no husband, so she had to adopt a child to ease her lonely life.
“I will get Chloe” Abby excused herself and left Martha’s side..
.
Abby struggled keeping up with Chloe, the little girl was a mini version of Amelia.
“I don’t like your new hair… go back to the saloon and take back your money” Her small voice echoed in the hallway.
Abby pinched Chloe’s mouth and made sure no one was watching. “You speak too much for your age!”
“And you are too old to be arguing with a child” Chloe retorted and dashed off.
“now I know why Liam doesn’t like her much” she opened her purse and brought out a small mirror. She examined her hair for a while and suddenly had second thought about it.
“Is my new hairdo really that bad?” she mumbled beneath her breathe.
Chloe entered the living room, she spotted Amelia standing beside Liam while having a heated argument with Allison.
“listen to me actress don’t think this is one of your shows where you speak how you want…. can’t you see that you are the villain in my love story?”
Chloe hid behind Amelia to avoid being seen by her mother and Nicholas.
“Big sis… I don’t want to stay here anymore” she whined tugging Amelia’s dress.
The room fell quiet as they turned to the owner of the childish voice.
“Chloe!” Angie called out and urged her to step forward.
However the kid had a mind of her own she held Amelia’s legs tightly refusing to let go.
“Even your child knows of your despicable ways” Liam scorned.
