We Got Love, The Crazy Kind novel Chapter 44

Liam’s answer pierced through Mia’s heart like a dagger. She couldn’t believe that her fiancé knew about the menstrual cycle of another woman so well!

Mia could hardly maintain the smile on her face. She was clenching her fists so tightly that her nails were cutting into her palms. Still, she managed to ask Liam with a smile, “Liam, why do you know something so private to Ms. Currie?”

Liam noticed the hard edge in her voice. After glancing at Amber, who was looking like a cat on a hot tin roof, he answered with great composure, “I learned it by chance.”

His answer was not helpful at all. However, Mia did not probe knowing how Liam hated to be pestered with too many questions. Instead, she turned to look daggers at Amber.

Amber looked awkward and completely at a loss. She would suspect that everything was Liam’s plan to turn Mia against her if he did not look so innocuous at the moment.

Unable to put up with the tension, Amber grabbed her backpack hurriedly and said, “I’ve got to go.”

She was too desperate to leave the diner that she couldn’t bother to care about manners. Then, she fought the blustery wind and ran back to the apartment.

She opened the door to the apartment and found Mia’s hat hanging on the rack, her designer high heels kept inside the shoe cabinet, and her lingering scent in the air. All of those things made her feel awful.

To her dismay, Amber realized that she had become a third wheel who had shamelessly sabotaged Mia’s relationship with Liam.

While they were still outside, she quickly took a shower in the bathroom and then retreated to her room. She balked at the prospect of bumping into them, so she was doing everything she could to prevent that from happening.

After Amber was gone, none of Mia and Liam spoke while waiting for the waitress to fetch them their bill. The atmosphere at the table couldn’t be more awkward.

Mia was so disheartened that she was on the brink of bursting into tears. She had no idea what she had done wrong to deserve such treatment. As a woman who had been in love with Liam for years, she couldn’t accept the fact that she was defeated by a woman whom Liam had only known for less than a month.

The possibility that Liam might cheat on her had never occurred to her. It was because she had always considered herself his perfect match in terms of her appearance, her education, her family background, and her personality.

Liam had never spent much time mingling with women because his career and friends came first.
