Chapter 143: Chapter 141: Wait for Me Obediently [2nd Update]
She really wanted to punch Liam Spencer’s face hard, but she feared that all her efforts last night would be in vain with just one hit.
So, tightly clenching her fist before immediately releasing it, she asked with a smile on her face, "Third brother, how come you’re suddenly so busy?"
"Hmm! Quite busy indeed." Liam replied offhandedly, approaching the sofa, taking her by the wrist, and leading her outside.
Maya Spencer watched his hurried demeanor, gathered her courage, and asked, "Third brother, the thing I mentioned yesterday, can it be done today?"
Even though Maya didn’t explicitly mention it, the man immediately guessed what she was referring to. Thinking about her purpose for seeking him out today, he couldn’t help but laugh coldly, thinking she couldn’t possibly have come just to see him. It turned out she still had the Spencer Clan’s collaboration on her mind.
Liam Spencer wasn’t stupid. Why would he handle this matter immediately? Besides, he was about to go on a business trip. If he announced the resumption of cooperation with the Spencer Clan today, who knew if Maya would act like a stranger by the time he returned. He was aware that all her concessions were for the sake of her mother being buried in the Spencer family cemetery as soon as possible.
But was Liam so easily fooled? Could he be deceived so quickly? Even though she had been humble enough last night, he still wasn’t willing to let her leave his side so soon. Perhaps, he simply hadn’t had enough rest.
Since there was something that could keep her by his side, he would just delay it, drag it out until she lost her temper, until she got used to staying by his side.
So this time, Liam didn’t plan to argue with Maya, didn’t plan to get angry, but decided to play along with her.
So he said, "Hmm! I’m thinking about it. There are a few unreasonable places in big sister’s contract, and Kinsley’s project also has some issues. I’ll handle these things when I get back. For now, go home and wait for me obediently."
Acting? Who couldn’t do it? He could even act better than Maya.
"Third brother!" Maya listened to the man’s excuses and almost spat blood in anger. Bringing up contract and project issues now, what were you doing earlier?
She tightly grabbed his arm, unwilling to let him go because she didn’t want to wait for him to come back, didn’t want to sleep next to him again.
"Maya, don’t be naughty. I’ll be back in a week. After a week, we’ll discuss this matter again." Liam knew that as long as Maya’s mother wasn’t buried in the cemetery, and as long as he gave her a glimmer of hope, she wouldn’t leave him.
This strange thought startled even himself. Since when did he want to keep a woman by his side? Such a state terrified him. He needed to calmly think about his relationship with Maya. This business trip was a perfect opportunity to consider the matter seriously.
The man said this and entered the elevator, and Maya followed, but the atmosphere inside made Maya feel unusually oppressive. She suddenly felt like Liam had changed into another person, with no interest in her, speaking and acting very officially, like practicing Tai Chi, which displeased her.
When the elevator reached the parking lot, Elijah Reed was already waiting outside, followed by a girl. Seeing the two of them come out of the elevator, she bent over in a ninety-degree bow and greeted, "Good afternoon, BOSS."
"Hmm! Make sure Miss Spencer gets home safely." After issuing the command, he quickly got into the car and headed to the airport.
His movements were too fast, so swift that Maya hadn’t even adjusted before he was disappearing from her sight. As she watched the car slowly start, Maya realized she had been used for nothing last night, and this man was about to escape. His talk of dealing with things after a week was all nonsense, just fooling her.
So, without thinking twice, she sprinted to chase Liam’s car. She couldn’t let him leave, couldn’t let him have her for nothing. He must immediately resume the contracts and projects.
Inside the car, Elijah Reed saw Maya chasing after them and intentionally slowed down, carefully reminding, "BOSS, the fifth Miss is catching up."
Maya glanced at the girl catching up through the rearview mirror, took a deep breath, and said indifferently, "Ignore her! Drive!"
"BOSS, maybe the Spencers are putting pressure on the fifth Miss. Why don’t we just resume cooperation? It’s not a big deal anyway." Elijah Reed watched Maya chasing the car, feeling heartbroken for her, especially remembering how she was thrown into the sea a few days ago. He suddenly felt a pang of sorrow, thinking, what a good girl, why did she have to go through so much?
"Elijah, how about letting you be the chairman? Let’s see how that would go?" Elijah’s defense of Maya made Liam feel uncomfortable.
"BOSS, I was just joking, just joking. Don’t take it seriously."
Outside the car, Maya watched the car getting farther away, infuriated, and sped up her chase but accidentally fell. Watching Liam’s car driving out of the toll gate, she pointed at his car and cursed.
"Liam Spencer, you bastard! You said you’d do it, but you just had your way and did nothing, you bastard. I curse you, once on that plane, you’ll never come down again."
"Achoo!" Inside Liam’s car, he sneezed inexplicably.
In the parking lot, the female assistant, panting heavily, caught up with Maya, pulled her up from the ground, and advised, "Miss Spencer, don’t chase after him anymore. Let me take you home!"
"Bastard! Bastard! You bastard!"
The female assistant watched Maya cursing, wiping her tears while helping her into the car and took her back to Liam’s apartment.
In the apartment, Maya sat in a corner of the bedroom all night without eating or drinking, her mind blank. This week seemed unbearably long for her, and after just one night, she felt it was longer than half a lifetime.
She kept reminiscing, recalling the times when her mother was around, remembering the two of them squeezing onto one bed, recalling how happy they were back then.
Later, she thought of her encounter with Liam Spencer, remembered his roughness and indifference towards her, which intensified her hatred for him. She kept planning and calculating in her mind how to get revenge on him, only to find herself with no way to tackle Liam Spencer.
She looked up at the empty big bed, seeming to see all sorts of disgraceful scenes between them, her eyes full of hatred.
She murmured to herself, "Liam Spencer, I will not forgive you."
Just as she was overwhelmed with anger, her phone rang suddenly. Taking a deep breath, Maya slowly got up from the ground and grabbed the phone from the sofa.
She thought it would be the Spencers calling to urge the cooperation issue, but to her surprise, it was a call from her uncle. Her eyes widened, quickly answered the call, and called out, "Uncle!"
The man listened to Maya’s voice, filled with excitement and exhaustion, took a deep breath, and said, "Maya, you don’t have to worry about your mother’s burial anymore."
