Chapter 234: Chapter 234
‘Or Arti invested in this new company because Alaric is in this company? And Alaric is Lee’s friend, or maybe even they became friends as well?’ He tried to dot the things that were coming into his mind.
When Brandon saw Artemis romancing Caroline, he didn’t disturb him and fished his phone in the pocket and searched for this company’s detail on the internet.
He was about to read the detail of LIA Jewelers Ltd when Sophia snatched his phone from his hand.
“Phone is not allowed to use any jewelry.” Sophia reminded him, thinking he was going to take pictures.
“Mon Amore, give my phone back!” He said rudely, shocking Sophia. But before she could have returned his phone to him, he snatched it from her hand and checked the detail that he had missed seeing last time. Even Sophia peeked in his phone to see what was so important that he was checking at that moment. But this time, his mind was diverted when his nose caught two familiar scents.
‘Why Lee and that Loser is here?’ He wondered. ‘Is this vampire invited Lee, and that Loser tagged along?’ A lot of questions started coming into his mind. He was feeling restless and excited at the same time to see Liara, but the only problem was that she was there with him.
While all these things were going on Brandon’s mind, Sophia was reading everything that was on that page until her eyes caught.
Chairman: T. Wayne
‘Theo? No. That’s impossible.’ She shook her head, and that was when the name of the Brand which was all around her caught her eye.
‘LIA- My Light’
That reminded her that Theo used to call Liara as Lia. She looked around in search of any of them but couldn’t find them anywhere. She wasn’t sure whether she was guessing right or not, not that she cared whether this company was owned by him or not. It was just that it had been years since she had seen their faces.
“Is Lee and Theo here?” Sophia asked, knowing that he could sense them, unlike her, who was just a human.
“Not yet,” Brandon replied. “How did you find out?” He asked, looking at her who was looking here and there.
“Read the page that you have opened.” Sophia responded and looked at the entrance when she realized Brandon had told her, ‘Not yet.’ It meant they were about to come.
Brandon arched his eyebrow when he read the name of the chairman. And at the same time, someone spoke, “Please welcome the Chairman of LIA Jewelers Ltd, Theodore Wayne, with his wife, Doctor Liara Wayne.”
Brandon couldn’t help but recall the hearted argument between Liara and him.
“What is he doing these days? Robbing a jewelry store or rich people?” He asked and grabbed her hand, looking at her ring. “The ring which you’re wearing costs not less than 20 Million. From where did he rob it?”
Liara smiled and shook her head, pulling her hand from his, “Actually, he robbed the whole damn diamond mine, dad.”

‘He is the owner of this company.’ That was when he realized the name of the Brand. ‘Why didn’t Lee tell me that day?’ Brandon questioned.
‘Because you didn’t hear about him and accused him as a thief already.’ His wolf growled and watched his pup, looking at them.
A tear rolled out of Liara’s eyes when her eyes landed on Sophia, who was looking at her with happy tears, but she wiped it, knowing everyone was looking at Theodore and her. Theodore leaned toward her smelling her tears.
“You okay?”
“Yeah!! Something went in my eyes.” She responded and smiled at him.
‘Liar,’ Theodore mind linked her and then walked ahead while Liara’s cheeks turned a light shade of red.
‘How can you catch my lies always?’
‘Because you’re a bad liar, Lolo.’ He replied in a teasing tone. Theodore went ahead and met with all the important people in the company. He was interacting with most of them for the first time. Liara’s legs were itching to walk toward her parents and meet them, but she had to fulfill the role of mate first than a daughter.
At the same time, she wasn’t sure how her father would react now. On the other side, Sophia was waiting for her moment when Theodore came near them.
“Did you see, he ignored us? As if we’re not here at all.” Brandon complained and wanted to leave there as soon as possible.
