CHAPTER 14: YOU’RE MY FOREVER

LIAM

I’m happy with what my grandpa said, in a month Sofie can already see me, his handsome fiancé

“ Liam!” I turned my head, it’s okay for me to stroll because Sofie is with grandpa

“ Thalia” I was surprised that she was the Fiance of Uncle Theo, I can expect her to do that because she also did it to me.

“ congratulations that you getting married next year,” she said. I distance myself from her

“ oh thank you and congrats too because you will become my new Auntie” I saw her face change

“oh haha yeah, “ said Thalia.

“ hmm okay then, I have to go, “ I said but she stop me

“ wait, can you accompany me first. I feel lonely “ I look at her. I know what’s running into her mind because she was my ex-girlfriend and I regret it.

“ I’m sorry but my lady is already looking at me,” I said. I saw her rolled her eyes

“ really? But I need you more than you need her” tsk! She’s a bitch! I’ve learned from the past and that won’t happen again.

“ you better choose who you wanted to flirt with Thalia, you don’t know what can Uncle Theo do if he knew what you are doing” I look at her seriously.

“ what will I know?” Said someone, I saw Uncle Theo

“ ooh babe, nothing” she puts her arms around Uncle Theo’s neck

“ Uncle your fiancé tried to seduce me and I warned her, don’t you ever do that again to me or you will regret it” I left them.

Because I was annoyed, I went to the garden it’s a little bit far from the area of the occasion. It’s better that I’m here rather than seeing that bitch!

“ shit!” I said

“ shit you too!” I frowned and I search where the voice came but I can’t see someone who's around until I look down and I saw Sofie sitting.

“ oh sorry I didn’t know someone was down there ” it’s good that she’s down there, she can't see me up here.

“ oh that’s nothing, there’s no one here, just ignore me” I laugh

“ then why are you still there are you not afraid down there? “ I ask

“ I’m afraid but I can’t show it because all of the things they have done for me will be wasted if someone sees me being afraid,” said Sofie

“ What are you afraid of?” I ask

“ From the start, eve since I came to that house until now” I didn’t know she has a burden inside

“ then why don’t you tell it to me? “ she kept quiet and it seems she already know who is she talking to.

“ Sofie I’m not just the person that you will just marry before this happened we were already friends and I’m willing to help you at any time”.

“ Sofie do you see me as a friend or do you see me as a husband, “ I ask. I am also confused. I admit that I love her now and I even love her before when we were still young.

“ before I answered that, I want to ask you the same question. What do you think of me? A wife or a friend?” said Sofie

“ both you can treat me as a friend or husband as long as you don’t treat me as an enemy,” I said

“ being one of the biggest successors of your family, it’s not a joke Liam, your grandfather's expectation for me was too high and I think I couldn’t make it. He asks me to fix his remaining properties and divide them to your family” that’s good she’s already talking.

“ There is one more, it’s your Uncle Theo the status of the other companies is not good and because of it he did illegal activities and made the companies as collateral to them which I was supposed to divide with your family. That man is so selfish” this will be big trouble if the family members knew about it.

“ I can help you, my lady, just let me help you”, I said

“ how?” Said Sofie.

“ just leave Uncle Theo to me and continue dividing the properties” I know Uncle Theo, will not stop until he gets his share but I have a plan to stop him.

“ about the expectation, you don’t have to reach for it because you were already there all you have to do is to show it” I know she was already there because grandpa chose her to inherit half of his assets and liabilities.

“ are you sure you can handle your Uncle Theo? “ she’s not that sad anymore.

“ yes my lady, trust me “ I smiled.

“ Okay I trust you my hidden master” I smiled wider

“ Uhm may I know what do you think of me then” I'm excited

“ nothing” I frown

“ Nothing?” I repeat

“ yeah nothing, “ she said, the smile on my face faded, I regret that I ask her about that

“ you’re my forever” my smile went back, I wanted to jump from here and hug her.

“ what?” I ask her again so that she’ll repeat it.

“you’re my forever till death do us part” it made my heart pound!

“ I love you” I wasn’t able to control myself that moment

“ I love you too” she speak silently but I heard it

“ what, say it again?” I can’t believe she also loves me.

“ Young Master, you are deaf” what!.

“it’s okay for me if I’m going to be deaf as long as you repeat what you said” that was corny!

“ I love you Liam Montequinto” I jumped all over the garden. She loves me!
