His Purchased Wife novel Chapter 107

"Good evening, Ethan." Liam greeted him, offering his hand.

Ethan eyes Liam with his sharp gaze and accepts his hand. "Good Evening, Liam." He said looking straight into Liam's eyes. Ethan King was impressed and irritated with Liam at the same time.

"Have a seat," he nodded at one of the sofas in front of him. Liam sat on it with one leg crossed over the other. Ralph sitting beside him confidently.

"I hear that you are having trouble with Mexicans again, Ethan." Liam started but Ethan kept analyzing him with his scrutinised gaze.

"They will be dealt with. I am least concerned about them," Ethan replied but he and Liam both knew it was a lie. Mexicans were a pain in the ass for Ethan Knight whether he wanted to accept that in front of Liam or not.

"I heard you saved my daughter on that island Liam? Tell me what happened there exactly?"

Thomas who was sitting on the middle sofa was aware of what his friend cum boss was doing. He was assessing him after all Ethan was about to give Liam the most precious thing of his life,

His daughter. But nobody said that he would do that easily. No, on the contrary, Ethan would make sure that Liam and people around him always remember who Aurora King was.

She was his princess and dare anyone to forget that. He would rip that person with his bare hands if his daughter ever frowned in her life.

Liam wanted a King's daughter then he better treat her like a queen or Ethan king had annihilated enough people that he lost count of it.

Ralph peered at Liam from the corner of his eyes. He could sense fishiness in Ethan's words. Ralph knew that Ethan was an old ally of their father but everyone knew that when it comes to his daughter, Friendship would be the last thing on his mind.

Liam on the other hand raised his face a little and looked into Ethan's eyes.

"Fair enough," he sighed and then started telling him the whole story of what exactly happened on the island. "Your daughter was drunk, I met her on the cruise and we had a little chit chat. She was barely able to walk and fell on the lifeboat. I tried to pull her back but then the lifeboat ended up directly into the sea…"

Ethan was listening to Liam but when he kept playing the game with him Ethan lost his calmness and in less than a nanosecond, his gun was out and pointed at Liam's head.

"Fuck!" Liam heard his brother curse when he saw that another run was pointed at Ralph's head.

"It's against the rules of friendship to point a gun at your friend's sons, Ethan," Liam said calmly and this calmness in his tone irked Ethan to the core.

"Fuck friendship, Liam. It's about my daughter, my blood. You take me as a fool or what? If you want to play these games then play them with me," He pushed the barrel of his gun harshly against Liam's temple.

"Don't ever involve my daughter in these fucked up games of yours," Ethan snapped.

"You think I didn't understand that you kidnapped my daughter to scare me for her. You forgot one thing, young man, I am the oldest player of this game."

Liam had enough. He pulled his own gun out of his coat and put it on the desk in front of him. " Using a gun would have been far easier for me, Ethan. You know it, I know it and everyone else here knows it as well but no, I always showed you respect towards you and your position in Canada. Even if I kidnapped your daughter to scare you, tell me did it work. Did you see the reason? I gather you did because if you have not, you wouldn't have asked for this meeting."

Ethan kept glaring at Liam, his gun still edged at Liam's head while Thomas had his pointed at Ralph.

"You know it too that I am the only one who can keep your daughter safe, Ethan. I am the best option you have. Aurora is naive; she is unaware of the realities of our world and I can keep it that way. You just have to agree to the alliance."

Ethan seethed but lowered his gun. "I won't force my daughter to marry you and neither allow you to do that. Aurora is the most important person in my life. I hope you understand the consequences of hurting her in any manner Liam."

Liam was irritated. If the man was still not able to see the rationale then war was the last option left. Liam Knight had dreams of ruling the Canadian mafia, like a king ruled over its subjects and he wouldn't allow anyone to come in his way. Even if he had to retire Ethan as the Mafia head of Churchill.

"So let's cut the chase shorter than Ethan, What do you want because as far as I know you talked to dad last night and your words indicated something else…" Ralph asked in a pure business-like tone because the look on Liam's face shows how furious he was.

Thomas put his gun back in his pocket and sighed because he knew Ethan wouldn't say the words he called them to say here. Ethan king was a soulless man but when it comes to his daughter he was just like every father who wanted to keep his daughter with himself away from everyone.

"Ethan wants Liam to woo his Aurora."

"I beg your pardon!" Ralph winced sharply.

Ethan turned towards them and looked directly into Liam's eyes. "I know you planned this contest in Vancouver all I am asking you is...," Ethan cleared his throat to ease away the uneasiness in his body. "To make Aurora fall in love with you. She is an innocent and naive girl just like Savannah. She believes in the same dreams my wife used to believe in and I want her to remain that way."

"So you want me to romance with your daughter…" Liam chuckled, amazed hearing Ethan.

"I want you to win her heart. I want you to keep her happy and in the world, she believes in.."
