It's past 12pm. Mr. Liam realized that he had just woken up so late. He had a meeting with his board members as early as 7am in the morning. He immediately called his manager that he wouldn't make it and he ordered him to cancel the meeting. His manager immediately did as he was told.
He was feeling a little bit tipsy from last night's party. He immediately had a flashback of what transpired after the party. At that moment, he knew he messed up.
He quickly rushed to take a shower and after that, he rushed downstairs.
He perceived a nice aroma coming from the kitchen. It was actually his favorite dish Mia had just prepared. He immediately went to sit in the dining room.
Just by looking at Mia's face, he knew she was still very much angry with him. She greeted him and didn't say a word after that.
She dished his food and was about to leave when he grabbed her hand. He immediately got up from the dining chair and looked into her eyes feeling remorseful.
"Mia… I'm so sorry for what transpired last night. Trust me, it wasn't intentional. I was only carried away by your beauty. And besides, I was so drunk and… " she immediately stopped him from saying another word.
" You know Mr. Liam, just because I'm here paying for the sins of my father doesn't mean you should treat me like an animal or a s*x doll. I'm a human too you know…" she said to him with a sad look on her face .
" With all due respect sir, I'll need to take my leave now. I have some dirty laundry to clean ". She immediately left the dining room.
Mr. Liam felt so guilty and he thought of ways to make her know he didn't do all that on purpose.
Mia on the other hand had already forgiven him. She realized that she couldn't help but think about him every time. She started to think meeting him was actually a blessing to her.
She picked up her little phone and gazed upon her mum's picture and smiled.
She kept on smiling at the picture and started having a conversation with her mum like she could see her physically.
One would think she had run mad, but that was how close she was with her mother.
