13 Chapter thirteen

I stared at Liam in a daze, even forgetting the presence of his father. It was not until I heard a dry cough from someone behind Liam that I blinked and covered my face in embarrassment.

Damn it! Liam kissed me in front of his own father. Does he have no shame at all?

'Son, I would trouble you to help your partner for a while before going.'

I looked at him from the gap between my fingers. He glanced at his wrist watch briefly and nodded. Turning toward one of the bodyguards behind him, he whispered something in the other man’s ears, who quickly slipped out of the room. After that, he turned toward me and dragged me out while I still had my face covered by my hands. Luckily, I had snatched the magician’s book before heading out. Otherwise, I would have to come to Derrick’s room again and face that old man after that kiss.

I groaned after remembering the event again.

'Why did you have to do that before your father?' I whined.

'Do what?'
