"Ah..." Lydia, who was splashed with water, scread to express her grievance and fright.
Subsequently, Maya Spencer nonchalantly took the phone Xavier Graham handed over, looked at Lydia coldly, and said, "You want so much for to drench you; how could I not fulfill your wish?"
"Chairman, Maya Spencer has gone too far. Not a single word I said was false. If you don’t believe , you can look at the evidence on the phone." Lydia said while crying, running towards Liam Spencer, continuing to complain, wishing to tear Maya to pieces.
"Have you had enough? If you have, then everyone out." Liam Spencer finally lost his cool at the commotion before him.
Seeing this, Christopher Scott imdiately reached out to pull Lydia, who was rushing to Liam’s arms, away. Xavier also pulled Maya towards the door.
However, just as Xavier was about to take Maya away, Liam suddenly said, "Maya, stay."
Hearing Liam’s command, Maya swallowed and stopped in her tracks. Lydia, walking ahead, heard Liam’s cold voice, and a pleased smile appeared on her lips.
At this mont, Elijah Reed, who was standing at the back, spoke. He said, "Miss Maya, don’t be so fiery; saying a few nice words won’t hurt."
Elijah shouldn’t have reminded her, but seeing Liam’s angry look, he couldn’t help but remind her. He feared Maya’s stubbornness might escalate the situation.
"Sweetheart, n need coaxing," Christopher also couldn’t help reminding her.
Yet, their reminders only made Maya more frightened, more unwilling to be alone with Liam, but she knew she couldn’t escape this ti.
A mont later, the vast office was left with only the two of them. Liam took a deep breath, looked at the girl by his side, extended his right hand to take the phone from her, and, walking slowly towards his desk, said coolly, "Clean the desk."
Hearing his command, Maya slowly turned and walked towards the desk.
When she stood in front of the desk, she drew a few tissues from the box and began wiping the water off his desk.
At the sa ti, she saw Liam place the phone, which held the evidence, on the desk but didn’t imdiately turn it on to view the evidence.
"It’s done." Feeling guilty for what she had done, Maya’s voice was noticeably softer than usual.
Behind the desk, Liam watched the girl’s timid deanor and, taking his ti, grabbed the phone, looking into her eyes, asked, "Shouldn’t you give an explanation?"
Hearing his question, Maya took a deep breath and calmly defended herself, "Things aren’t as serious as you think, and I’ve only been at the company for a few days. What could I possibly know or steal?"
While she spoke, Liam kept watching her ears because he found out a few days ago that when Maya lied, her ears would turn red, and obviously, they were red now.
So, looking into her eyes and fiddling with the phone, he coldly asked, "Should I believe you?"
Maya defended, "Lydia doesn’t like ; she’s exaggerating things, just trying to drive out of the company."
"Co here." Hearing her defense, the man gently commanded.
Hearing his call, Maya felt her legs weaken, wondering if she wouldn’t be able to get out afterward! Although she felt rather hopeless, she didn’t want to die in his hands.
But to avoid angering him, she moved forward towards him anyway.
"Maya, why don’t we look at what’s in here together, shall we?" Liam said with a wicked smile.
"If you don’t believe , go ahead and look. I have no explanation," Maya said with a deanor of facing death, as if she really was innocent.
The man observed her forced calm, her tightly clenched hands, and beckoned her to co closer with a gesture.
Seeing this, Maya quickly took two more steps forward, standing by his side, immobile.
Then, Liam reached out his right hand, pulling her slightly forward, causing Maya to sit on his lap, her large, watery eyes looking at him with endless grievance.
She rembered that Liam had no resistance to her coquettish behavior.
Watching her expression, the man raised his right hand, gently caressing her chin, without saying a word.
Seeing this, Maya imdiately grabbed his hand, pitifully saying, "Wasn’t the chairman going to look at the evidence together? Let’s do that then!" She was employing a strategy of retreating to advance.
Liam saw through her little sche at once but didn’t expose her, continuing to look into her eyes, unflinchingly.
A mont later, Liam finally relaxed his brow, firmly stating, "Maya, I’ll trust you this ti."
Hearing him say he believed her, the boulder hanging in the girl’s heart finally fell. At this mont, she really wanted to hold his neck and give him a big kiss to show her joy.
But to avoid revealing her true feelings, she showed no happiness, rely pouting and looking pitifully at Liam, seeking sympathy as if she really was wronged and suffering.
Liam, looking at the girl’s pitiful expression, raised his right hand and touched the finger marks on her face, saying, "Aren’t you quite the fighter?"
"How could I take her seriously? I couldn’t just throw her over my shoulder!" Maya replied nonchalantly.
Watching her coquettish eyes, Liam involuntarily swallowed and suddenly grabbed the back of her head, pushing her forward to deeply kiss her lips.
When she was kissed, Maya’s eyes were open, and her peripheral vision occasionally fell on the phone on the desk.
If the video and photos Lydia took weren’t deleted, she couldn’t be completely at ease.
Seeing her distracted expression, the man glanced at the phone, recalling her confident deanor when splashing Lydia with water.
This girl always did bad things with a righteous attitude, and yet now she appeared guilty.
Knowing full well that her motives weren’t pure, he didn’t expose her. After kissing her, he pinched her chin, whispering against her lips, "Maya, I love your naughty side."
Hearing his teasing voice, Maya’s eyes squinted as she smiled at him, her hands resting on his shoulders, slowly lifting her right leg to stand up from him, her small hand smoothly taking the phone from the desk, saying, "You take care of your work; I won’t disturb you."
The man watched her little move, seeing how eager she was to leave with the phone, stretched out his long arm, and hooked her back to lie on his lap.
Seeing his devilish eyes, Maya swallowed, blinking her big eyes and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Listening to her question, the man’s big hand trailed along her shirt, asking, "Aren’t my intentions clear enough?"
"No, it’s work ti now." In reality, her only concern was the phone she clutched tightly in her hand.
"Maya, opportunities don’t co every day; rember to cherish them." Liam’s eyes were gentle, though his words carried deeper aning.
