Maya watched as someone grinned foolishly at her while tidying up the dishes, sighing and lamenting, "Ah! My fate is truly miserable to have such a wicked mother-in-law.""Liam, come with me." At the stairs of the restaurant, Charlotte, who was about to leave, called Liam over.
She was worried Liam might stay behind to help someone wash the dishes, so she simply took him away.
"This woman is really cunning." Maya scrutinized Charlotteās back, sneering in complaint. Donāt think she canāt see through Charlotteās little schemes.
Listening to Mayaās complaints, Liam raised his right hand, pinched her little face, and said, "Be good, donāt cause trouble."
"Haha!" Maya gave him a fake smile, thinking to herself, it would be strange if she didnāt cause trouble, is she the type to remain quiet? If she doesnāt show Charlotte her prowess, would she let her boss her around?
How could Maya allow such things to happen to her!
"I know, I know!" But in front of Liam, she still gave a perfunctory agreement.
After Liam left, Maya carried the dishes on the table to the kitchen in two trips, stood at the sink, and furiously pressed the detergent, producing a sink full of bubbles.
At this moment, Maya held a valuable crackle-glazed plate in her hand, placed it before her eyes, carefully looked at it for a moment, then suddenly let go, allowing it to slip from her hand, welcoming the sound of its shattering.
However, she did not hear the desired sound of breaking dishes, so she quickly looked down, only to find that the plate had been caught by a large hand.
She immediately turned her head, surprised, and asked, "Didnāt you leave with your aunt?"
Liam looked at the girlās surprised expression, circled his arm around her waist from behind, rested his chin on her shoulder, and bit her ear, saying, "Knew you didnāt intend to do any good, look whoās trying to wreck Auntās kitchen!"
"My hand slipped!" Maya lied with her eyes wide open.
In fact, Liamās guess was spot on; if he hadnāt come, Maya would indeed have wrecked the kitchen, at least she wouldāve smashed all the dishes in the sink.hanās apartment, afraid to go anywhere; only answering calls from Ethan and her parents and nobody elseās.
Correct! Sheās avoiding Liam, afraid Liam would question her after realizing Mayaās not here, so sheās simply disappeared.
Sitting on the sofa, clasping the phone tightly, her heart pounded, afraid to answer, fearing the call was from Liam asking for someone.
Thus, only when the phone rang a second time did she pinch her nose, faked her voice, and said, "Hello, Ellaās in the bathroom; Iāll have her call you back later."
Despite pinching her nose and faking her voice, Maya still heard it.
She furrowed her brow, puzzled, and asked, "Ella, what are you doing?"
"Maya! Waa... you terrified me; I thought it was the principal calling." Ella burst into tears upon hearing Mayaās long-lost voice.
After Maya left, these days at home, sheād nearly scared herself into a nervous breakdown, even lost a few pounds; hearing her voice again naturally stirred her emotions uncontrollably.
"Ella, whatās wrong? Why are you crying?" Maya, hearing Ellaās cries, got anxious, wishing she could fly to her side to comfort her.
Ella answered tearfully, "After sending you away, I resigned and when I saw your number, thought it was the principal calling, and I was scared..."
