Chapter 52 - 50: She Can’t Afford to Provoke
"Young Master Liam, you’re back!" Maya Spencer heard someone at the door call for Young Master Liam and quickly quickened her pace, heading towards her bedroom.
She didn’t want to see him, nor did she want to be seen by him.
When Liam Spencer entered the house, he caught a glimpse of Maya Spencer’s hurried figure retreating into her room. It was such a large room, yet his eyes instinctively landed on her; she was the first he looked for.
Watching her slam the door shut, he felt a surge of anger, his face darkened to the extreme. Was this her way of giving him the cold shoulder?
However, Maya wasn’t intentionally giving him attitude. She was merely following his request not to appear before him.
Back in his room, Liam’s previously calming mood took a turn for the worse, remembering how Maya slammed the door earlier. He bottled up his anger with no place to vent.
He had expected that after climbing into his bed, Maya would have something planned; she couldn’t have taken a loss without a fight.
But he had miscalculated; after the quarrel that day, she never bothered him again, nor did she seek his judgment. For three whole days, she hadn’t appeared in front of him. This made him even more displeased.
At the desk, he slammed the book in his hand heavily onto the table, the corners of his mouth curling into a cold smile as he muttered to himself, "Playing hard to get? Well, she does have some endurance."
Liam didn’t believe Maya could keep it up, swallowing this bitter loss.
