Chapter 25: Chapter 25

"Did you already talk to your father about it?" Ilena asked.

They were both on the side of the big pool placed in their house while being massaged on the back. Midzy and Ilena were both living the tail of the dream, but they didn't think that the company was indeed bankrupt. They were just denying it, satisfying their feelings by buying everything they didn't even need.

"Yes," Midzy said.

"Huh? Why the low tone? So did he agree to make a reservation for you? I know that a man named Liam is still single. " Ilena said.

And Midzy was still thinking about how Violet was still alive. Midzy, like her stepfather, never believed it. Midzy thinks that her father has something to do with all the happenings, and he’s just keeping it from them.

"Mom, do you think that Liam will ask Violet for a marriage?" Midzy asked.

"Shsssss!" Ilena put her finger on her daughter's lips, and Midzy shoved it out of irritation.

"Why?" Midzy asked, whispering.

"Didn't I tell you that your father didn't know about it?"

"So, shut your filthy mouth if you don't want to lose all of your inheritance."

They both lay down as they were being massaged, but Midzy suddenly got up and tied the towel around her body and said to herself, "This can't be happening!" Then she walked out.

"Where are you going? Midzy? " Ilena shouted.

Midzy, on the other hand, was so determined to get what she wanted that she bit her lower lip hard and smirked at herself in the mirror.

"You can never go and reach my level, Violet."

"Never!" Then, she decided to leave their house to claim what she believed was hers.

----

All of them stood still, and the look on Princess's face was indeed seen as she was confused with what she had heard. Liam knew that this would come to Princess's absurdity, so before she could even speak, Liam stopped her by saying

"What do you mean?" said Liam, confused.

Midzy scoffed, can't believe he's saying this, but what do you expect? This issue has been shut down because the company will be affected when they learn about what happened, but Midzy feels she's unstoppable, making herself believe that she's going to make this runaway groom believe she has everything he knows.

"She's the one you were supposed to marry before you were ordered to marry me instead." Midzy said

"But because that girl was so careless and didn't want to marry you, she left then, got drunk, and then one day became pregnant. Boom!" Midzy added with full confidence.

Midzy was so confident in what she said, she even thought of winning this case. Getting everything she wanted was so easy for her, and she never thought that she’d be someone that'd be given a chance to live like this, luxuriously.

Midzy was looking at Liam and Princess was staring at Liam.

"So your point is? Because when you say it like that, it looks like they are all in the past and you're the only one who hasn't moved on from it. " Liam said

And he's been very drained because he doesn't know what to say or how to tell Princess everything. Now Princess's here next to him, listening to everything he has to say.

"The point is, why would you waste time with someone who already had her life ahead of her?"

"When you can focus yourself on the woman next to you, that would be a great choice, and I won't judge you for it." Midzy said

Princess was lost for words, and nervous if she was making it so obvious.

"What are you saying? Between the two of us, you are the only one with motives here. "

"Pretty bold for claiming to say Liam was your leftovers and someone was after him, despite the fact that you look like a leftover yourself," Princess said.

And all of this is making Liam more stressed than he has ever been in his company, and he knows the only problem he has now is how to talk to Lily when he doesn't think he's making her uncomfortable, because after they talk, Lily unexpectedly calls it a day on their first ever date.

"Stop! Who said that I was interested in what you had to say?" Liam told Midzy

"You think talking to me about this matter will change my point of view about your her?"

"Think twice." Liam said.

Midzy was shocked at how Liam would react towards Violet, almost protective. Midzy was coming to the conclusion that Liam might know something. That, Liam was aware of Violet, but if he was aware, shouldn't he be angry too? Because she was pregnant by a random boy? How come he speaks like that? Is it because he already knew everything?

"Stop! Let go of me. What are you doing to me? " Midzy hysterically shook her body to escape the grip of Liam's guards.

"I've got no time for this. Please get her out, gently." Liam ordered and turned his back to go to his chair to sit down.

Liam grabbed his phone and dialed Lily's number to talk to her, but Princess grabbed his phone and turned it off.

"We need to talk!" said Princess, and I was just looking at her, anxious.

"So, you already know that Lily or Violet or whatever her name is, is the same person, right?"

"What do you want to know, Princess? Where is this heading? " I asked her

"That the boy who got Lily pregnant and you.... a-a-are the same person." Princess said unsure, hoping that's not true because it would be a foul move.

Liam sighed, and Princess's hand was placed on her mouth in shock because she knew what could be filed against her.

"Why you?"

"I know you don't have to tell me, but I have a reason." Liam said, massaging his forehead.

"What reason?"

Princess asked, and she was so confused for no apparent reason. She badly wanted to ignore what her friend said and even calm herself, making herself blind as if she had heard wrong.

"I will say it, after I tell Lily everything. Now, can you leave? I want to be alone. " Liam spoke softly but with a tinge of terror in his voice.

"But..."

"Leave!" Liam said.

And Princess was left with no other choice but to leave and let her curiosity feed her. As she asked herself why her best friend wasn't denying anything and why she witnessed how Liam cared for that girl so much.
