Chapter 8_ The nasty contract 1

Amelia scoffed at his words "don't try to instill fear in me Liam Grayson I'm not scared of anyone".

Liam knew this won't lead anywhere if they keep on going like this "you should be" Liam pointed out.

Amelia looked down at the file with her " what is this about?" She inquired.

" We both have been wronged by the people we consider family, you are facing a huge backlash and I'm on a really tight spot how about we get married.......

Liam wasn't even done talking when Amelia butt in after hearing the word marriage "I'm not interested, I rather face this scandal forever than to get married to you no one will be able to tolerate your bad attitude". Amelia said in one breathe.

Liam massaged his temples " I wasn't done yet and don't be under the impression that I like you, because you are wrong you are the last person I could ever get married to but since the situation at hand is very critical this is the only way out of this mess, the marriage is only for a whole year after that we go out separate ways and you will get fifty million as a compensation".

Liam explained while Amelia went dumb the huge amount kept on ringing in her ears, fifty million to put up with this brat.

"Where is the pen?" She questioned, he handed her the pen which she used to sign where necessary.

After she was done, she stood up " congratulations husband" she said sarcastically throwing the file back at him copying what he did to her earlier.

Liam remained unmoved for some second before he pulled Amelia to sit on his laps harshly with a smug smile.

Amelia who was taken by surprise went into a daze seeing how close she was to him right now.

Liam inserted his hand into her pocket pulling out the tiny statue she took earlier before pushing her off his laps, he took out a napkin dusting his suit pants especially where she sat.

"Get your things over here before noon I have to register this papers". He stood up and was walking away before he added "petty thief".

Amelia narrowed her eyes at him if not for the huge amount that she will receive she would have not signed those stupid papers.

Meanwhile.............

Dylan showed Louisa around he noticed her face was getting red by the minute, so he stopped and touched her forehead "are you okay?".

Louisa was left in a trance even if his hands were no longer there she could still feel the warmth lingering on her forehead.

"Yeah I'm okay" she managed to smile at him.

Dylan ransacked his head on how to start a conversation with her, "umm...my bad I'm Dylan" he stretched forth his hand for a hand shake which Louisa took without hesitating.

"Louisa" she mumbled.

"Then I'll call you Lou" he announced walking forward while Louisa blushed behind him.

Dylan didn't know why she was acting weird but he liked her cute behavior, he doubts if she is as calm as she looks.

"So what do you do for a living?" He asked hopefully the conversation could last longer than the rest he tried to have with her.

Louisa blinked "I'm a waiter at a bar". Dylan noticed she was embarrassed to answer that."do you like your job?" He asked to receive a short stare from her.

He doesn't know why but something was pulling him towards her, he wanted to probe further into her life but considering they just met he doubts if she would open up to him.

"I'm not complaining about it" she replied honestly, it was at that bar she met Amelia ever since then they became close friends because she visited frequently with Jane and Greg.
