Chapter 1928
It was a dreamless night.
Knowing that Liam would be coming, she woke up the next day before dawn even broke.
After she washed, she stayed inside the dressing area for a while and debated on what to wear. She ended up opting for a formal shirt paired with a fitted skirt with a coat thrown on top. She combed her hair neatly behind her ears.
With that, she walked out of the dressing area, ready for the day.
Brianne and Logan had already supplied the required documents to her. All she needed to do was to hand them over to Liam and brief him about the details.
At around ten, the receptionist informed her that Liam had arrived.
She rose immediately and went to the VIP room with Logan and Brianne.
The VIP room was on the second floor. They took the elevator, and it took five minutes for them to get
there.
Upon opening the door, the bright, brilliant ceiling lights flashed in their face. They saw a man in a leather jacket seated on the couch.
Her eyes shone. Her first instinct was to call him by his name, but with Brianne, Logan, and Liam’s crew in the room with them, she decided against it. She put on a serious expression and greeted him with a professional, polite smile, “Good afternoon, President Carter.”
Liam had just taken a sip of water. Upon noticing Caprice dressed in her business attire coupled with the formal way in which she carried herself, he nearly spat out his drink.
He coughed dryly and tried to suppress a laugh, then he spoke, “Good to see you, Miss Stockton.”
Caprice frowned.
Miss Stockton?
What an awkward way of addressing her, she thought.
She swiped a look at him before taking her seat on the couch next to him. She began, “Let’s get started, President Carter.”
Liam threw a look at her. “Sure.”
Caprice gave Brianne a signal.
Brianne promptly handed the documents to her. Caprice took the docket and handed a copy to Liam. President Carter, here is our initial proposal.”
Liam took the documents from her, and in the middle of doing so, scraped the tips of his fingers against the flesh of her hand. There was no telling if it was intentional.
Caprice suddenly felt herself heating up and had to still her breathing. She stole a look at him.
