Chapter 8


    Liam''s eyes connected to her ass the minute she turned which made him groan and he closed


    his eyes. For a moment, he forgot his dumbass of a friend was still there. Alexughed and Liam


    looked startled.


    " You''re still here?! " Liam twisted his mouth in irritation.


    " Yeah " Alex was stillughing " And I didn''t miss how your eyes stayed glued to her ass like


    you wanna rip off her panties and fu... " Liam didn''t give him the chance to finish his sentence as he


    threw a book at him, which Alex skillfully dodged.


    " Oh stop this drama, you know you love me " Alexughed and ducked Liam''s punches when


    he came at him. Liam rolled his eyes " We both know I don''t. Now get lost "


    " Ouch, you wound me " Alex ced his hands over his heart. Liam shoved him out of his


    office and mmed the door.


    The minute he walked over to his desk, he remembered the family dinner in the evening. He


    walked back to the door hastily, after realizing he would need Alex''s opinion. He opened the door


    and scanned his eyes through the corridor, looking for Alex. Alex had almost turned the corner to


    use the elevator when Liam sighted him.

    " Alex! "


    Alex turned and gave him a yful re, " Finally realized that you love me?" He asked with a


    smirk, walking over to Liam.


    " Huh? " He teased, hitting Liam yfully on the arm.


    " Ohe on, don''t start " Liam sighed and went back inside the office with Alex on his tail,


    following him like a puppy.


    " I need your help " Liam started.


    " About time you realized you can''t do without me " Alex said smugly, stroking non-existent


    beards.


    " Oh shut up " Liam sighed and continued, " The thing is, Mom called a few hours ago and


    talked about this marriage I knew nothing about. Can you believe father has arranged a marriage


    between me and a girl I''ve never heard about before? " His eyes started to ze, turning a deeper


    shade of blue.


    " He''s fucking nning an arranged marriage! This old man is dictating my life for me! " His


    breathing came in rapid rhythm, out of rage.


    " Hey man, calm down " Alex said, in all seriousness. His eyebrows creased in concern for his


    friend.


    " No I fucking won''t! I swear I will kill this man when I finally get my hands on him! ".


    " Calm down. You''ll get out of this unscathed, I promise " Alex repeated, cing a hand on


    Liam''s shoulder.


    " Now, will you calm down and exin what''s up with this marriage thing? I thought we talked


    about it thest time I came here ". He settled downfortably and patted the seat next to him ,


    gesturing for Liam toe sit but Liam ignored and took the chair opposite.


    " Mom called to inform me of a family dinner taking ce in their mansion tonight. Then she


    talked about this girl Dad wants me to meet. Apparently, he''s nning a marriage for me. That


    conniving, selfish old man! " He clenched his fists, wishing it was his father''s neck he was holding in


    that tight grip.


    " So what did you tell Diana? " Alex called Liam''s Mom by her first name because they were so


    close that outsiders mistake them for family.


    " If course I refused to dance to father''s tunes " Liam red at the floor and unclenched his


    fists.


    " So? " Alex prompted, wanting Liam to say the real thing.


    " So I hung up " Liam directed his re at him this time around.


    " That''s it? " Alex scoffed and looked unimpressed. Liam ignored him and continued.


    " So she called back saying she had a talk with Dad and the only way to get out of this


    arranged thing is to bring my fiancee to the dinner tonight ". He finished with a deep frown.


    Alex bursted intoughter " Whoa whoa! "


    Liam stared at him and said nothing. He waited for his idiot of a friend toe out of his


    laughing fits.


    " Done? " He red at Alex who didn''t seem to mind.


    " Not yet " and heughed some more.


    " Okay, now I''m listening " He finally said, trying to put on a serious face.


    Liam just rolled his eyes and continued.


    " So that''s where the real problem lies. How am I going to get a girlfriend? Where do I see one? "


    " Oh there''s one right beneath you " Alex replied coyly, a small smile ying on his lips.


    Watching Alex, Liam was starting to get scared. He knew that look very well. He could tell Alex


    was cooking up something and he sure as hell wouldn''t like whatever woulde out of his mouth


    next.


    " Who? " He raised an eyebrow " And don''t even think about asking Amanda to be my fake


    girlfriend " He scowled.


    Alexughed, " Seriously? Guy, you just disappointed me. I would never suggest Amanda to


    you. There''s someone better " He winked.


    Liam looked lost for a moment until realization dawned on him. They both chorused, " Ca?!".


    As if on cue, the door opened and Ca came in. She looked at them suspiciously and walked


    over to her desk. She picked up some files and turned back to them.


    " Sir, it''s almost time to close for the day. I want to drop these for Amanda to exin some


    things to me before calling it a day ".


    " Okay. And make sure you see me before heading home " Liam looked at her, his gaze


    unwavering.


    Ca frowned slightly but replied anyway. " Okay sir " and the door closed behind her.


    " Man, you really need to release in a hole. I seriously can''t stand the sight of your dick saying


    Hi just by you looking at her " Alexughed. Liam grabbed the pillow nearest to him and threw it at


    Alex.


    " Go to hell " He muttered.


    Alexughed and ducked. " But seriously Liam, when did you have sexst? "


    " Fuck off if you don''t have anything better to say ".


    Alex ignored him and teased him the more, " No wonder you''re being so itchy these days.


    Man, you need to fuck " He was stillughing.


    " But seriously, I think Ca will do " Alex said thoughtfully, traces of y gone.


    " One reason why Ca is perfect? " Liam asked.


    " Oh don''t make me start " It was Alex who rolled his eyes this time. "One, you feel something


    for the girl but I can''t figure out what it is yet. But trust me, I will figure it out " He added, stroking his


    chin. He put his hands up to silence Liam when he wanted to interrupt him.


    " And two, Ca is not after your money or looking for a way to seduce you, that I know. I''ll


    keep the rest for now" He finished with a bow.


    " You''re sick, you know that? " Liam shook his head.


    " Yeah I know " Alex grinned " Sick out of being too good in everything I do "


    " Yeah sure " Liam was being sarcastic.
