We Got Love, The Crazy Kind novel Chapter 54

In the top floor office of the Watson Group, an executive conference was going on.

Intimidated by the cool gleam in Liam’s eyes, people were reporting their work with the most meticulous care

Thank God! It was Sales Department’s turn to present the performance, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

This year found a resounding success in Watson Group. Mr. Croft would be happy with this remarkable quarterly sales growth. Finally, the senior officers felt able to breathe again.

While presenting the impressive performance with stylish, well-polished slides, Sales Director glanced at Liam confidently, only to find he was not watching the data at all. Instead, he was glowering at his own hand in a stern face.

God, he was watching the phone—there seemed some bad news. He did not look pleased.

That was true. Staring at the pictures on the phone, Liam was simmering with anger and frustration.

Three quick-snapped pictures. Picture 1: Amber was chatting and laughing with a tall young man, each holding a cup of coffee—obviously purchased from the same store. Picture 2: They were visiting an exhibition shoulder by shoulder. The man was fencing around the waist of Amber to block her from the surging crowd. Picture 3: Amber was smiling up at the man while the man was patting her head, in dubious intimacy.

Liam recognized the young man at first sight. He had seen the man in South University!

Unfortunately, he did not see his face clearly. These pictures only showed his back and a part of his side face.

Oh, fuck the meeting! Tired of the bragging and nagging by Sales Director, Liam slammed his phone onto the table: “Session dismissed!”

What? People gazed at one another, dumfounded. It was so not Liam Croft at all. What drove this cold fish out of control and lose of temper?

How could such a remarkable sales performance fail to please Mr. Croft?

Paled with fear, Sales Director struggled desperately to figure out what was wrong.

Liam stepped out of the meeting room resentfully, leaving all the rest at loss. They exchanged fleeting quizzical looks and scattered out of the door when Liam’s footsteps heading afar.

Liam did not recollect himself until he drove all the way to the gate of South University.

He hit the brake abruptly. His car halted, causing the rising complaint of drivers behind.

Ignoring the hoot right after the other, Liam called Amber anyway.
