Chapter 140 - What Are You Doing?

Chapter 140: Chapter 138: What Are You Doing? Liam Spencer listened to the girl’s threat, suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned around, lowered his head to meet her eyes, then took two steps forward, forcing Maya Spencer two steps back, and said with a cold laugh, "Alright! Go ahead and tell! See if people will believe you or me?"

Indeed, as long as Liam accused Maya of seducing him, trying to use him to elevate her status within the Spencer Family, no one would be willing to believe Maya’s accusations.

Maya watched the man aggressively turning her attack against her, she panicked and cried out loudly, raising her small hands, hitting his chest randomly, cursing, "You jerk, jerk! How can you bully people like this."

"Survival of the fittest, isn’t that something you understand well?" The man didn’t stop her outburst, instead, he felt relieved seeing her on the brink of collapse.

At least, this fragile version of her was the real Maya, she wasn’t threatening revenge, wasn’t blackmailing him with death, wasn’t pulling him down with her; just as long as Maya didn’t gamble ruthlessly with him, he felt somewhat comfortable.

"Why? Why treat me like this? How did I offend you?" Maya grabbed the man’s collar and questioned him.

"Because I hate you!" he said, contradicting his true feelings.

"But last night, last night you said you liked me? How can you..." her emotions were uncontrollable, sobbing so much she couldn’t get a complete sentence out.

"Maya, are you really stupid? Or pretending to be stupid? You believe a man’s lies?" At this moment, Liam looked at her tearful and helpless appearance, he was nearly unable to continue, but when he thought about her wanting to drag him down with her, he held strong, continuing to argue with her.

"I didn’t believe, I didn’t believe at all, but you can’t be so shameless, you still have to help me, and I’m your sister, how can you harm me like this, you ruined my whole life, do you know?"

Maya had never been so vulnerable before, never spoken to anyone so humbly, she was unwilling yet powerless to retaliate against him.

All her dignity was crushed to dust beneath him, unable to resist his forceful threats. Does she really have to return, damaged and achieving nothing? She was full of hatred, wishing she could tear Liam apart, hating that he came back to the Spencer Family, hating him for provoking her, for giving her a glimpse of hope only to shatter it.

She clutched at his collar, teary-eyed looking at him. She thought, must he give her an answer? An answer to his hatred for her.

The man looked at her tears falling like rain, seeing her speechless anger, suddenly softened, he took a deep breath, removed her hands from his collar, gently wiped her tears, and said, "Go home first, whatever it is, we’ll talk tomorrow."

"Jerk! You’re a jerk!" Maya seeing the man’s nonchalant demeanor, could only curse him, and curse him more.

Then she was picked up by him, carried into the elevator, only until it stopped at the entrance did he let her down, allowing her to put on her shoes herself and enter the home.

In the living room, Maya sat dumbly on the sofa, her mind went blank, tomorrow, she would have to roll out from this house, return to the Spencer Family like this, how would she explain to her grandfather, how would she bring up the topic of burial?

At this moment, Maya was obsessed with the idea of entering the cemetery. It was precisely because of this that she was led by her grandfather and Liam like a lamb to the slaughter, without any initiative.

Liam, seeing Maya sitting dumbly on the sofa, indifferently commanded, "Take a shower! Go to sleep!"

Maya hearing the man’s command, walked into the bedroom like a puppet, clumsily took her clothes out of the wardrobe, and clumsily walked into the bathroom.

Seeing her soulless demeanor, Liam pushed open the bathroom door and asked, "Are you sure you can manage, don’t need my help?" By now, his anger had subsided a lot.

Listening to the man’s question, Maya shook her head and said, "No need."

Forty minutes later, when she came out of the bathroom, Liam was already lying on the bed asleep, although he was only pretending. The anger he had accumulated in Henry Reid’s hospital room wasn’t completely gone, he didn’t want to deal with Maya.

Maya seeing the man already asleep on the bed, her heart turned cold; she remembered he had said in the car that if she could win IKMI, there might be a glimmer of hope.

However, seeing him sound asleep, she knew that he said he wasn’t interested in her was real.

She swallowed down some resentment, not willing to let this night pass calmly; she still wanted to fight for a chance, to save the situation.

So, she took a deep breath, slowly climbed onto the big bed, lay on him, wronged and tenderly said, "Brother Liam, don’t be like this, okay? I know I was wrong today, I was emotional, said things I shouldn’t have, I’m sorry, I’m admitting I was wrong, okay? Please don’t be like this."

The man listened to her apology, unmoved, continued to pretend to sleep, but then felt her lips against his, mimicking the way he kissed her every time, actively kissing him, yet he still had no reaction.

Maya tried for a long time, seeing Liam still unresponsive, began to get anxious, her hands propped beside his head, tears fell onto his face, saying, "Brother Liam, don’t be like this, okay? At least give me a chance! Don’t just strike me down! Wake up, okay?"

The man listened to Maya’s cries, feeling her hot tears, he thought, it’s ridiculous, he had just said earlier in the day he wasn’t dead, and forbid her from mourning Henry, yet here she was, crying as if he was dead.

"Brother Liam! Wake up! Wake up!" Maya genuinely started to cry, her tears were like rain, crying to the point that Liam’s heart ached.

When she cried out once more for him to wake up, he suddenly opened his eyes and said irritably, "I’m not dead yet, you’re crying prematurely."

Liam suddenly opened his eyes and spoke, terrifying Maya, her sobbing abruptly stopped, her face turned pale as if she truly saw a ghost.

After the fright passed, she suddenly embraced Liam, crying out loudly, complaining, "Why did you do that? Why did you do that? You’ve scared me to death."

Her sudden vulnerability completely conquered Liam, who initially wanted to continue being aloof. At this moment, he couldn’t maintain any facade, he hugged the girl lying on him tightly, wishing he could fuse her into his body.

Maya seeing him finally respond to her, hugged him tighter, crying and complaining, "Even if I said the wrong words, did the wrong things! You still have to give me a chance! You can’t bully people like this."
