His Purchased Wife novel Chapter 159

"Liam, can I ask you something?" Aurora said when they both were settled in bed together, her head in his chest, she was drawing circles with her fingers on his heart.

Liam was thinking about what Ryan told him when Aurora was talking to her father. His business was suffering because of the masked man. He had lost five consignments of drugs and weapons since last month. It was more about reputation than monetary loss.

"Liam? Baby?" She kissed his chest and then moved to his neck, she bit his earlobe softly. Liam's chain of thoughts broke and he looked at Aurora, who was looking at him with her beautiful blue orbs, expectantly.

He frowned. "You want something?" He asked, Aurora sighed.

"Yes, I want to ask you I want to talk to you about something."

"Hmm."

She hugged him even more tightly, wanting to be as closer as she could get at this moment. "I know how you must have been feeling all this time. I understand your pain."

What is she talking about?

"My pain?" He questioned.

"Yes, I know we never talked about it but I think it's time we should start sharing our emotions," she moved a little and sat on his stomach. "You want to go all the way?"

Aurora shook her head. She told him she was not ready for the sex and he accepted it. They are enjoying exploring each other's bodies without doing the deed and Aurora was liking it.

"No," she leaned down, their chest touching as she was lying on top of him now. "I wanted to tell you that I am with you."

Aurora kissed his chin, teasing him with her tongue. "You know, when my mom died I was alone in my big house but I had Mrs Dolan with me and there was Susan. She treated me like an elder sister. I was alone but I had people with me. Dad treated me like a princess. He still does."

Liam couldn't comprehend why she was telling him all this but he kept listening. "Tell me about yourself, your childhood. Share all the pain you felt after your mother's death.

What the fuck!

Liam flipped Aurora under him. His eyes turned dark and a vagueness came to his face. " I don't like talking about my mother, she is dead and there is nothing more to tell. Do you understand me?" He asked, curtly.

Aurora gulped. She understood he was not comfortable talking about his mother. "It's okay, I know it's hard for you to speak about your mother. You must have loved her so much and it hurts seeing your father with other women. I understand Liam, I am not saying anything bad about your father but the way he lives his life after your mother is a little hard for me to digest. I mean my dad has never looked at another woman after mom. He still wears his wedding ring. He is still loyal to my mom. I am proud of him and your father…"

The beast in Liam roared in anger. How dare she speak against his father. "I said don't say anything about someone you don't even know! I respect my father Aurora and I will not hear a word against him. He is what he is but he was there for me and my brother when my so-called mother ran away with her lover and died. He is having fun with a new girl every day but he didnt marry anyone you want to know why? Because he couldn't forget the woman he lived with like a madman and all the way she was planning to run away with her lover. He is still not over my so-called mother. Your father loved your mother, good. He is still loyal to his wife. Good. But that doesn't mean my fatehr is not! He also wears his wedding ring on his finger to remind himself not to trust women again and he is right to do so, woman can't be trusted."

Aurora inhaled sharply. She felt like a fool when he told her about his mother but the last line he said made her frown. "Do you not trust me, Liam? What's love without trust?"

Liam closed his eyes. "Aurora, you once told me that you need a little space. Now, I am asking the same. Please, don't ask me questions I don't want to answer today." He said, controlling the twitching of his hands. He got off the bed and walked out of the room leaving Aurora alone in his bedroom.

Aurora kept staring at the ceiling, she felt cold in Liam's well-heated room. Once again, she hurts his feelings without thinking. "How many times I told you to control your words Aurora but you never learn," mumbled to herself.

Aurora needed someone to talk to, the first name that came to her mind was Susan's but she couldn't call her, not so soon. She needed to understand that Aurora was an adult now who wants to grow as an individual and not depend on others' decisions. Emily was out of the question too, she was happy with her upcoming wedding planning. Aurora didn't want to disturb the most beautiful time of her life with her problems.

She sighed and touched her necklace, and asked her mother to help her. Aurora closes her eyes, every time she thinks her life is back on track, a hurdle appears in her way and now Aurora has no idea how to talk to Liam. She turned to his side and inhaled his scent from his pillow. The spicy masculine scent intoxicated her mind and heart.

Suddenly, a memory flashed in her mind. It was of the time when her mother plucked flowers from her rose garden to send to Ethan with a sorry note because they fought. When Aurora asked Savannah about it, she told her daughter that flowers have the power to make anyone feel special.

When Aurora asked why she was making daddy feel special, Savannah kissed her daughter and told her that she was doing it because she hurted Ethan with her words.

Aurora opened her eyes and touched her necklace, "thank you for always being with me, mom."

She couldn't wait for the morning to come.

The drive to the office was in a pin drop silence. Aurora didn't like it, one bit. She wanted to tease him, hug him like every other day but he was working on his Ipad. Aurora rolled her eyes and closed the separation window between them and the driver.

Liam didn't even look at her, he kept working on that stupid Ipad. Aurora was irritated and thought of a hundred methods to give his Ipad a cruel death.

She smiled seeing the message on her phone. The flowers had been delivered to his office. She asked his PA to put them in his office.
