Kira smiled as well, unamused. ‘Mr Cane, be honest with me and with yourself–do you really love me?” Liam furrowed his brows. “Why would I say all those things if I don’t love you? Do you doubt my sincerity?‘
“I doubt your motive. You’re only using me to get to Austyn.”
Her answer hit the nail on the head
Liam clenched his jaw.
Lum Cina, Have You Fidien For That Woman
Liam Cane, Have You Fallen For That Woman?
The girl wasn’t as gullible as she looked.
She was too astute to let him pull the wool over her eyes.
In his experience, the best way to manipulate a woman was to get her to fall for a man
Then he could have her eating out of his hand
It was a tried–and–true technique, with him coming out on top each time.
But Liam realised he might have met his Waterloo this time.
Sensing his distraction, Kira stepped around him and aimed for the door.
‘Hello? Anybody home? A man’s voice came from downstairs. ‘Liam?”
Liam scowled when he heard the voice.
He spun around, grabbed Kira by her elbow and dragged her back into the bedroom.
“Hey! Let me go!‘ Kira grappled with him.
Liam didn’t listen.
‘Let me go! Don’t make me hate you!‘ Kira shouted angrily. ‘I was willing to forgive you for what happened in the restaurant because you helped me in the past. But this is way out of line! Stop!!
‘Shut up!‘ Liam hissed.
But it was too late.
A figure poked his head through the open doorway.
“I hope I
hope I’m not interrupting,‘ he said with a smirk when he took in the scene in the bedroom
Liam pulled Kira behind him.
‘Sean, what are you doing here?”
Sean Santoro’s eyes were fixed on the woman behind Liam.
“I’m here to see you, of course. But it seems that y
you’re rather busy at the moment.‘
Liam’s heart was beating fast.
Sean had proposed making a move on Kira several times.
Liam shot him down, but he knew Sean wouldn’t give u
up so easily.
When he heard Sean’s voice downstairs, his first thought was to keep Kira out of Sean’s sight, though he didn’t know why he was so
nervous
Sean crossed the length of the room in two big strides.
He yanked on Kira’s arm and pulled her out from behind Liam.
“You must be Austyn McCarthy’s wife.”
