Chapter 55 - 53: Tricked
When Liam Spencer got back to the other house, it was already 7:50 a.m., and usually at this time, Maya Spencer should be having breakfast in the dining room.
But when he walked in, he found the dining room empty, with no sign of her; only Elia Spencer was coming down from the second floor, unhurriedly.
"Morning, Third Brother!"
"Mm!" Elia’s greeting was met with a perfunctory response, as his eyes settled on a certain person’s door, thinking, is she really planning not to eat breakfast?
Seeing where the man’s gaze landed, Elia hurriedly called a servant to ask, "Aunt Parker, where’s Maya? Not eating again?"
"Fourth Miss, Miss Maya left early this morning and took some breakfast with her."
"What’s she doing? Did she get stupid from celebrating her birthday to the point of not daring to meet people?" Upon hearing that the Little Demon had left, Elia found it suspicious. She had sensed that those two weren’t on good terms, and it seemed like the Little Demon was avoiding Third Brother.
If that’s the case, so much the better, she thought. That way, she could comfortably bully her again. Thinking about how she hadn’t bothered her in a while made her hands itch with anticipation!
Next to her, Liam listened to the servant’s answer, took a deep breath, and headed upstairs as if nothing had happened, though inwardly more furious than he had been last night.
So Maya really was hiding from him; he wondered how long she planned on hiding. The more she didn’t want to see him, the more he wanted to run into her, just to see what kind of show her fake little face would put on.
