Chapter 102_ The parcel
Liam glanced at the door when he heard a knock, he released a deep breath and forced words out of his mouth. “Come in”
The door pushed open and Stephanie came in fiddling a parcel.
She ogled at Liam greedily who was sitting at the other end of the bedroom.
“Young master a parcel came for young miss”
Liam hummed in reply, totally uninterested he pointed at a nearby shelf. “Drop it there and leave”
Stephanie nodded and did as she was instructed, she carefully placed the parcel on the shelf.
Her brows creased in worry, Liam was supposed to take a look at what was inside the brown colored box.
An idea popped into her mind, she knocked down the parcel and gasped when the contents spilled out.
“Oh my goodness! I’m so sorry…. I”
Liam averted his gaze towards her and the things scattered around her. “What was so difficult in placing the parcel on that shelf? just get out!” he lashed out harshly at her.
Stephanie’s heart slammed rapidly, she turned around and left the bedroom in a hurry.
Liam sighed as his gaze remained on the items on the floor, he suddenly became interested in what was In the parcel.
He got up from the couch and walked over to the scattered items which fell out of the box.
His gaze narrowed at a photo that was on the floor. He picked it up at once. “Why does Amelia need Nicholas photos?”
He asked himself and gathered the other items, he noticed these all belong to his half brother.
“What could she possibly need all these for?”
Amelia came hurriedly Into the bedroom to see Liam scanning through the parcel.
“Liam what are you doing?” she questioned snatching the box out of his hands.
Liam frowned and pointed at the box “I wanted to know what was in the box”This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Amelia rolled her eyes, “Oh! I ordered a new set of hair dryer since the old one was broken” she explained taking the box along with her, she placed it on the vanity table and turned towards him.
“Liam I think we should be weary of what father said today, your grandfather and stepmom are evil”
Liam nodded his head to her in response, his grandfather and stepmom were not on his mind for now, what troubled him was why Amelia would lie about her parcel.
He returned back to his seat and tried to focus back on his work.
“The parcel is open already, Liam did you do this?”
“The maid who brought it in dropped it by accident”

Luciana squeezed her sunglasses in her hands seeing the new lady with Dylan, only she knew exactly where Dylan runs off to whenever he faces trouble that was why she followed him here.
She was the one who took him out of the bar when he was drunk, she left him for a while to get a cab and after she came back to where she left him, he was gone.
Luciana wore back her sunglasses before going back to her car.
Dylan glanced down at his phone which Clara noticed. “She won’t call, I haven’t received a call either”
He snapped his head towards her “I thought about what you suggested and I’ve made the final decision, let’s do this”
Clara’s lips formed a thin line, she thought as much. He was bound to accept her offer what other choice does he have.
“That’s a great news, so what are your plans for this month that you chose to be away from everyone?”
Dylan released a breath “I would try not to think much and I hope it doesn’t pass away quickly”
Clara nodded to his words, she understands him better since the both of them were going through the same phase.
Dylan stood up, he brought out his wallet and placed a few bills on the table. “I will be at the hotel please don’t bother me for a few days” he said which sounded like a whisper.
“I can’t promise that!” Clara seconded and watched him leave..

Louisa hailed down the car that was approaching her. When it stopped she instantly regretted ever stopping it.
She turned around and began walking away, but the car still followed her blocking her path. She snapped her head to the two guys who were sitted in the car.
“Get out of the way!” she lashed out irritably,
“I like it when you are upset because you get much more prettier” James jested.
Louisa’s nostrils flared in anger, she disliked these two so much that she cringes whenever they appear before her.
James and Steven stepped out of the car overshadowing her with their height.
“Stay right there or I will scream” Louisa warned stepping back.
James stopped a man passing by the busy road “We are trying to kidnap her do you mind saving her?”
The man shrugged and left, James grin widened “So you see? even if we kidnap you no one cares so what will you gain by screaming?”
Louisa folded her arm sending deadly glares at the two.
“What do you both want?”
Steven clicked his tongue “We want to sought things out between you and your fiance”
“He is not my fiance!” she retorted almost immediately.
James scoffed loudly “We witnessed your engagement even the world did”
Louisa screamed in frustration, these two were making her go nuts.
“Don’t provoke me or I will be forced to beat you to a pulp!”
They both laughed at her like she just dropped a joke. “Your threats don’t scare us”
Louisa took a deep breath in ‘no Louisa stay calm don’t let them get into your head, now relax’ she meditated.
“Were you busy thinking about Dylan?”
And that was it! she lost her temper she sent a flying kick to James face.
Steven gasped while blinking continuously, what just happened?
James fell hard on his car’s bonnet, he touched his face unable to believe what just happened.
Steven bursted out laughing with James. “Both Dylan and Liam signed a death wish with the women they love”
Louisa gnashed her teeth in anger “Your match will find you soon and I’m pretty sure that she would beat the hell out of you”
James stroked his jaw “I’m every girls match you must know that by now”
“Clowns!” she muttered irritably walking away from them.
Steven turned to James in worry “Are you alright?”
“Yeah, I’m alright”

Fred walked into Allison’s bedroom to meet her forcing her things into a luggage.
“Ally what are you doing?”
He asked worriedly touching her shoulder, she yanked his hand off. “Don’t you dare touch me!”
Fred was taken aback by the tone she used on him, her chest heaved up and down in anger. “Are you planning to leave this house and me?”
“And why shouldn’t I leave? you are not capable of handling your problems so how will you solve mine!”
Fred sighed and took a seat on her bed, “I’ve told you countless times that I will make Liam all yours but you don’t have any faith in me”
Allison smirked mockingly, she laughed out hard at her brother’s words. “Faith? and why should I? I can’t believe how powerless you are compared to Liam, our dad is the mayor and you are a mafia don so tell me how hard it is for you to fulfill my wish!”
Mrs Williams was walking past her room when he overheard the conversation between her children.
“You claim to be a deadly and ruthless mafia boss but that petty actress managed to put you in your place and don’t let me talk about Liam or you won’t be able to face the world!”
Allison resumed packing her things again, she zipped the luggage and pulled out the long handle. “Have a nice life without me!” she said mockingly.
She stopped on her tracks when she saw her mum standing in front of her corridor. “I know what you are about to say mum and I’m not interested in hearing you out!”
“What is going on?”
“I’m leaving this house for good!”
Mrs Williams hummed in reply, so this was another new scheme to emotionally blackmail her brother.
Mrs Williams snatched the luggage from Allison taking it along with her.
“Mum what are you doing?”
She ignored them and walked out fast with the luggage, she placed it by the main door of the house.
“See that! I saved you a lot of energy why don’t you take it from here and leave”
Fred and Allison’s mouth dropped in shock, did they hear wrong?
“Mum do you really want her to leave?”
Allison’s eyes stinged, “I knew it no one loves me! you were trying to chase me out of the house!”
“Mum can you see how upset she is now?” Fred asked walking to Allison.
“She wanted to leave so I helped her a bit to fulfill her selfish task, can’t you see the truth behind those false tears of her’s?”
