Immediately I got out of his office, I walked briskly to my own office. Omg! I can't believe Liam is my boss. All these while my boss was talking about his partner(Mr Baker) he was talking about Liam? . And I didn't know this.
***Flashback
"It's Friday night Mabel, lets go to a club " my room mate said. "I don't want to, I just want to sleep" I replied her, covering myself with my duvet and backing her. "You don't mean that" she said, she walked over to me and pulled the duvet from my body. "Please let me just sleep" I pleaded. "You have all weekend to sleep but today is for fun " she said, dragging my feet off the bed."I don't want to be the third wheel" i said. "you won't, you won't even know my boy friend is there" she said, reassuringly. "Okay, fine. Do you promise to let me be all weekend?" I said looking a her. "I promise" she said.
We picked out a dress together, did our make up and her boyfriend came to pick us. He drove us to one of the most exclusive clubs in Los Angeles. "How do you know this place? And how are we going to enter?" I asked him. "I know people in high places" he said with a smirk. Alright then, let's see if the people he knew can pull this miracle. Cos damn, this club is for the elite. This is where the who of the who come to have fun. Lo and behold, we were granted access.
We went to one of their VIP tables, called a waiter and ordered drinks. The club wasn't overcrowded like the clubs I was used to. It had just enough people around. After a while, the waiter brought our drink,. "Let's dance" my roommate said, pulling me to the dance floor. I was already tipsy so it was quite easy for her to pull me. We got dancing, throwing our hands in the air and jumping about. "That guy over there as been staring at you since we walked in" she yelled in my ear "which guy?" I inquired, looking around. "He is right behind you. How about you go over and say hi to him?" She yelled in my ear again. "Oh yeah, are you sure he was looking at me?" I asked her, making sure. "I am sure" she said, smiling. "Alright, let me give it a shot" I said, feeling really bold. With the amount of alcohol I had in my system,i was feeling really brave. Usually, I can walk up to a guy and compliment him, maybe even get his number and text him after. But after that, he had to do the work. I stopped believing in love since high school but that didn't stop me from having awesome s*x. Today, I was in the mood to do more than that, I turned on the little seductress in me. I walked up to him with a flirty smile and said, "Hi!" He smiled, he didn't look surprised that I walked up to him. He probably got that from a lot of women. "Hi! I have been admiring you since you stepped in here" he said. " I sat In front of him and said "yeah. My friend said so." "I was going to come and say hi but you beat me to it. I admire women with confidence. " he replied, taking a sip of his drink. i smiled at the compliment. "Pardon my manners, do you want something to drink?" He asked, looking apologetic. "I will have what you are having " I said. I should have said no, but i wasn't in the mood for rational thinking. I was already tipsy, what's a little more alcohol? He called for one of the waiters and ordered for another drink. Few minutes later, the waiter was back with my drink. I heard a phone ring and i reached into my purse. "That is mine" he said reaching for his phone in his pocket. he looked at the screen and said, " sorry, i have to pick this" he stood up and left. Few minutes later, he got back "Sorry I didn't catch the name" he said, settling into his seat. "I am Mabel and you are?" I replied. " Call me L" he said with a huge grin on his face.
