Chapter 50: Suspicious Act
Although some had lost hope that Laura Brown might be alive after all this time, her family strongly believed that she is still alive somewhere and wanted her to be found. The Laura Brown missing case was transferred to the FBI and became a cold case with no leads.
Liam hoped for her to be alive too. But...
Now that her body is found, the missing person’s case will officially become a murder investigation. And with the feds’ involvement, this case will become a big deal. If it reaches the media... and if his involvement in that murder case is revealed...
It was for that reason, that he kept her hidden for this long. He hoped for that woman to appear out of nowhere to exonerate him, but that ship has sailed.
And now, he needs to make sure no photos are leaked of her traveling with him. He didn’t want her to face the consequences of his sin. He also needs to take care of his assets and make sure it all ends up with Rory and his child. His company will face a great loss and before that he has to talk to his uncle Lenny to give him a heads up.
But before that...
Liam looked up to see Rory. She was still showing her back to him. Although he wanted her to believe him, a large part of him didn’t want her to doubt him.
He didn’t spare her that courtesy and he felt like a hypocrite for expecting that from her. But still, the heart wants what it wants.
Rory could only scoff. Liam sleeping with Allison..? And Allison keeping mum about it..?
Heh!
Meeting a vegan tiger would be more plausible.
Liam is not dating Allison. Considering his position and wealth, if such a thing happened, Allison would have let her know. In fact, she wouldn’t have stopped talking about it.
