We Got Love, The Crazy Kind novel Chapter 26

When he heard sounds coming from behind the door, he took a brief glance at Amber’s outfit before opening the door. Even though her legs were blatantly exposed, her attire was still considered tidy.

He opened the door to find Lily and the manager, both wearing meaningful smiles on their faces.

"Mr. Croft, the meal is ready. Would you like me to escort you to the dining hall now?" The manager spoke with the utmost respect towards Liam while observing Liam's facial expression.

As usual, Liam’s face was expressionless, but the manager was quick to notice a suspicious red mark on his neck. It looked extremely similar to a woman’s lipstick mark.

He diverted his gaze onto Amber and observed her slightly ruffled hair and flushed cheeks. Her makeup that she wore for the catwalk a while ago needed a touch-up, and so did her lipstick.

Things added up—given the pitch dark setting they were in—Mr. Croft must’ve already made a move …The manager was pleased that things were going as planned.

With his sharp wit, Liam should be able to realize that this whole setting was planned by him. He had catered this perfect plan to Liam’s liking so he was extremely confident that Liam would appreciate his kind effort.

Despite seeing how hard the manager was trying to suck up to him, Liam remained non-committal.

Just when Amber was relieved that she could finally keep a safe distance from Liam, he turned around to look at her and said, “You’re coming with me.”

Going with him? To dine together? Panic-stricken, Amber shook her head and said, “No, it’s okay. I’m fine. I’ll need to go change out my clothes first.”

The manager was extremely delighted when he heard this. This was turning out perfectly. He had never thought Mr. Croft would take such a liking to this girl! This plot of his was going extremely well!

Excited, he quickly grabbed Amber’s arm and uttered, “Come on, let’s go! Go change out your clothes. We can wait for you.”

Liam subtly glanced at the manager’s hand that was grabbing Amber. He was still wearing a calm expression but the manager was startled by his gaze that caused chills to run down his spine. He let go of Amber immediately and did not dare to make any further physical contact with Amber.

How could he be so careless? He should never lay a finger on the woman Mr. Croft fancied!

Amber wanted to reject the manager’s proposal but she became strangely nervous whenever she saw Liam. As she was trying to reject the invitation, her gaze trailed downwards and landed on the lipstick mark on Liam’s neck!

The awkwardness was unbearable! The manager and Lily must’ve noticed this too. She thought in a panic: What would they think of this? Furthermore, it was just the two of them in the room when the blackout happened...
