48 Chapter Forty-eight

"Wow, that does look expensive," Alexis commented at the cutlery her mother had especially taken out for her. Vanessa loved holding parties whenever she could. The line of a word often kept her busy so whenever she threw a party it was the best and that included the best cutlery sets.

"Yes it is, come on have a seat." She pulled out a chair for her and sat in the seat in front of her. Liam came and took the seat next to her and Agatha went out, not wanting them to feel bad for the lack of seating arrangement as only five seats were available. Plus, Liam would provide her with more protection.

"So," Vanessa sighed. "How's Mr Walker?"

It hit Alexis that she had not told her mother about quitting her job or unable to go there since she had been kidnapped. But that was not an option given Liam was sitting next to her and she was very sure that he was acting as a spy.
