Chapter 48: MEETING DAWN
"Can I ask for something before you kill me?" Alicia looked at him sceptically, yet Liam continued with, "It's my death wish okay."
Alicia smiled sweetly when she heard these words and answered him with, "Anything you want, just let me know."
Liam raised his brow at how happy she was to kill him. How cruel was this woman really??
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe scornfully glared at her and said, "Marry me."
Alicia chocked on her own saliva at the mere mention of such ridiculousness. The man was too shameless, why did she even think he would ask for something rational?
Noticing Alicia's reaction, Liam smiled evilly and interrupted with," okay, I won't die then, but I do have something else in mind, .." he trailed off as he gave Alicia a knowing look and Alicia smiled and said, "Its your funeral Liam Walker."

HR DEPARTMENT:
A young lady with a face which had no emotions in sight in her chair with her head slightly bowed as she focussed on her PC intently.
Alicia stood a few feet away from her, her right hand was holding onto Liam's shirt for dear life which she buried her face on Liam's back. Liam was speechless, he was being harassed so vigorously just because of a woman he had never met before. It was simply too embarrassing for him to admit such a thing.
While Liam looked at the pitiful woman clinging on him, he felt a gaze on him which didn't seem to waver. When his eyes locked onto the woman's he smiled lightly. He hadn't met anyone who could challenge him daringly with a simple look, this only meant that the woman was someone he shouldn't get close to, yet in the next moment he heard the words, "So you're the man who kidnapped Mike? Mhmmm, not bad."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe moment those words were spoken Alicia jumped from behind Liam as she puffed up her chest and answer the woman with, "Now let me explain what happened okay, let's not get hasty or anything."
Dawn cut her off completely while she was talking with, "Hi there, I'm Dawn Brown. I practically own Alicia since my dear boyfriend Mike owns her for loosing a bet." She had a smile on her face while speaking to Liam, more like she was scanning for anything odd about him. After a while she said, "I thought it was that weirdo James, thank god you got some sense in you little Ally and chose someone intriguing."
Alicia was in awe, how, …just how in the world could Dawn Brown say something nice about anyone other than Mike. She had a new type of respect for Liam, he was her only treasure which peaks the great Dawn Brown's interest.
Noticing the sparkle in Alicia's eyes as she looked at him, Liam was shocked, this was all it took to have her fancy him, REALLY?!!
He took this opportunity to get closer to her and said, "Since Miss Brown has an interest in me, can you marry me now?"
And right on que, Alicia choked on her saliva once again. How could he be so shameless at a time like this? Dawn chuckled lightly when he heard Liam's words and said, "I like this one, not bad Alicia Adams, not bad. Your good at something other than running this company after all." With that she walked away with a smile on her face.
