Chapter 46


    Heads turned as they walked to the mini restaurant in thepany. Liam wanted to eat out but


    Ca tantly refused and suggested eating in the restaurant. Liam had no choice but toply


    with her wish. Really, there was little to nothing he could do when her mind was made up. She


    sneaked her hand around his arm and with chin held high, she got all the confidence she needed to


    walk amidst the crowd of people. Of course they stared at her, some had on malicious sneers, some


    stared at her with admiration and others with sheer curiosity, probably wondering how she had


    managed to win the heart of one of the most eligible bachelors in Mexico.


    Liam smiled down at her, making her crane her neck up to look at him. There, she keep forgetting


    how tall he was.


    " Enjoying yourself, wife? " He asked


    She rolled her eyes " Pretty much so, but I would like it better if everyone isn''t staring at me like I


    snatched their lover or something "


    " Yeah " Liam replied absentmindedly, the thought of how hot she looked in his head.


    She continued " They''re so unbelievable! " She eximed, waving her hands in the air.


    " Yeah " He said again.


    " They should learn to ept the fact that I''m now married to you and nothing on this earth would


    change that " She ended her words with a sigh.


    Now she had managed to catch his attention for he looked at her and blinked his eyes twice,


    wondering if he heard her wrong.


    " Uh... Sorry, did I hear you correctly? " He asked, stopping on his tracks. His action was so sudden


    that Ca almost bumped into him.


    " Agh... Watch it guy! " She scoffed.


    Heughed " Sorry, my bad. You said something which quite surprised me "


    She rolled her eyes " So what did I say that got you speechless? "


    " Some seconds ago, you said something about our marriage that I found quite surprising and


    amusing at the same time " He crossed his arms and regarded her with a dark, intense gaze.


    " What? " She frowned, looking slightly confused.


    His gaze on her hardened " You''ve forgotten so soon? Or you just don''t wanna say It again "


    She rolled her eyes " Of course I''m not pretending, I really don''t re... " Right then, her eyes widened


    slightly as a look of recognition crossed over her features.


    " Oh! Is it when I said they should ept the fact that I''m now married to you and nothing would


    change that?! " She asked, tapping her left foot.


    He nodded quickly " Yes! That''s it, you sounded so real so I wondered if it was really you "


    Sheughed, brushing a strand of hair away from her face " Oh that? I only said it in favor of the


    passerbys, we''re being watched you know "


    " So, all of those words you said... You didn''t mean them? " He asked quietly, all traces of joke gone


    in his voice.


    She stared at him longer than it was necessary " Yeah, don''t count on it because I didn''t mean any


    of that " She replied softly.


    " Okay I won''t, it''s all for the best anyway " He said with a deep sigh and walked off, leaving Ca


    rooted on the spot, speechless.


    She followed him after a minute and watched him sit at the table close to the window. They waited


    in silence while their food was brought to them. The waitress came with their order and ced the


    food on the table, sending Liam seductive nces but he failed to notice as his attention was on


    Ca.

    " Hmmn " She digged in immediately and moaned softly, delighted by the delicious taste of the


    meal.


    " This is so delicious " Sheplimented the absence cook and promised to leave a good review


    on the appter in the day.


    " One of the best actually " He agreed between a mouthful of sandwich.


    " Hmn I agree " Ca said, nodding.


    About fifteen minutester, they stood up, ready to leave. Liam nced at Ca and smiled.


    " What? " She returned his stare with a frown.


    " Shhh " He murmured and closed the distance between them. She sucked in a sharp breath as he


    invaded her personal space, almost leaving her no breathing space at all.


    " Wh... What are you doing?! " She stammered in hushed whisper and looked around. Sure enough,


    people were staring at them, murmuring in low tones.


    " We''re in the public don''t you dare do anything funny! " She red at him.


    He didn''t reply, instead he brought a hand up and caressed her cheeks which were now red.


    She stuttered " What... Whatever prank you''re... trying to pull won''t work on me, Liam so stop, this is


    crazy really "


    " It is? " He asked with a wry chuckle. She knew he was teasing her and damn , it was working.


    She hissed " Damnit Liam, I''m gonna... " Her remaining words hung in the air as Liam finally spared


    her the torment and brushed his thumb softly against something on her lower lip.


    Her cheeks turned bright red as she realized that there was a crumb on her lip and he had wiped it


    away for her. Well to be truthful, she thought he was about to kiss her and she had anticipated his


    kiss, irregardless of all her rants about the people present. Now she wished everyone would just


    disappeared so she could be alone with him or better still, there should be a world where only the


    two of them existed.


    He snapped his thumb and middle finger before her and she snapped out of her daydream " A


    penny for your thoughts... What are you thinking about so deeply that your beautiful forehead even


    creased in concentration? "


    She looked dazed for a moment " Uh? Oh... Nothing, I''m fine "


    He gave her one of his charming grin " Are you sure? "


    " Of course I''m good, let''s go, shall we? " She said and led the way this time.


    They had barely crossed over the threshold when her phone rang.
