His Purchased Wife novel Chapter 119

Liam remained standing, Susan walked with Aurora towers still holding his gaze. Something Aurora said on the island clicked in his mind about Susan.

She was the one with whom Aurora wanted to hook me up. Too bad, the girl was not to Liam's taste and Liam was certainly not a 'B' man.

He could sense that the girl gazing at him with calculating eyes felt responsible for Aurora but he didn't know till what extent and he was soon to be found out.

"I thought you came alone, Aurora,won't you introduce me to Mr…"

"Ya!" Aurora muttered, "Mr Knight, she is my friend cum sister, Susan and Susan mee our boss, Liam Knight."

Susan's brows jerked up. "Ah! The same Liam knight who asked for your hand…" she drawled And Aurora stiffened, fearing how it must have felt to Liam and cursing herself, the way she told her friends about that incident was like a story of a comedy film. She glared at Susan, gesturing not to speak further about it but Susan wouldn't be Susan if she did it.

"The Very same," Liam said with a forced smile, he offered his hand to her and Susan accepted it. Still, her eyes were on him, they left each other's hand and she turned to Aurora.

"Mr Knight is right, Aurora. You should go and try it on. It will look perfect on your curves."

Aurora gulped. She recalled how Gabe used to tell her that short dresses made her look fat and she should try to wear long and loose clothes to hide her belly. Aurora tried to make him understand that she has a perfect figure but gradually she started dressing up the way he wanted. Yes, after taking off his ring she started wearing clothes of her choice but still, she felt Gabe's disappointed gaze when she used to wear short body clinging dresses.

Liam handed her the dress, "try it." He ordered her.

She took the dress from his hands and went with the attendant to try it.

When she was finally out of their Vision, Susan turned to Liam, "you are still interested in her, right?" She asked, with a sharpening gaze, crossing her hands to her chest.

Liam was impressed. The girl was courageous and now he understood why Aurora talked so highly about her. "Maybe," he replied, "or I could have some ulterior motive. Anything was possible," he played with her mind.

At that, Susan took a step forward, fixed him with a look of sheer protectiveness towards Aurora. "Then I suggest you stay the fuck away from my girl because you have no idea to which level I can stoop to save my girl. I have done it before and I will do it again, so be careful."

The beast inside Liam raised his angry head ready to pounce on her but he ordered it to remain calm, now was not the time to show either of these friends what Liam Knight was capable of doing.

Liam's lips tugged downwards, he nodded his head. "Understood, Miss Susan and I like this protectiveness you have for Aurora And to answer your question," he said with a calm and serious face, "I am always interested in Aurora. She needs someone who can understand her. She is like a butterfly and I want to see her fly."

She can fly all she wants but the sky she flies is going to be mine. She can flutter her wings however she wants but she would be able to do it only when I want.

Because I am going to own her, mind. body. soul.

Susan sharpened her eyes and was about to speak but then her eyes went to. Aurora's a walking figure who looked glamorous in that red sparkly dress. Liam followed her haze and was stunned to see Aurora.

His breath stopped seeing her in that dress, her golden blonde hair pulled up in a bow complimenting the dress. "Fuck!" He whispered, lost in her beauty.

"How is it?" Aurora asked. I assured them about herself in that dress, she turned around and Liam's heart thumped loudly. He was just lost in her beauty!

Meanwhile, Susan's eyes sparkled when she saw a glimpse of old Aurora in her eyes today. It was just her confidence that was missing. She missed how Aurora used to smile while trying new clothes but today her eyes were holding questions and that questioning gaze gave Susan the reason to kill that son of a bitch, Gabriel.

Before she could even reply, once again Liam beat it to her. "You look breathtaking but there is one thing missing," Aurora frowned, before she could ask what he meant, Liam pulled the hairpin out of her and her hair fell on her shoulders. "Now it's perfect."

Aurora kept staring at Liam's beautiful face. Lost in his dark eyes, "Shall we move on?"

Liam chuckled when her brows jerked together, seeing the confusion on her face he touched a lock of her golden hair and nudged it lightly on her shoulder, "you said you have to shop for makeup, jewellery, shoes and so on. If your dress is final we can move on to other stuff," he went near her ear and whispered softly, "Mrs Knight."

Aurora took a sharp breath, her eyes settled on Susan who was looking at everything with a sharp gaze. Aurora pushed Liam a little, aware of Susan's scrutinised gaze who was looking at them with raised brows.

Liam's lips pulled in a wide grin when he noticed her flushed cheeks and that intense look in her
