" Liam stop ," I was tired .
" But sweetheart ," Liam turned at me ," We need to teach our dogs some lessons."
I shivered as I stared at his merciless cold blue eyes .
This was not the gentle man who hugged me to sleep .
Infact , I did not know this man at all.
I remembered what Rupert Hunter once told me ..
" Tell me Autumn Dane, what will you do after you know everything? Will you run away like your mother-in-law did ?"
Was that even an option ?
It was as if I was under a spell ....an invisible string that bound me to this man for eternity.
No matter how repulsive , terrifying he bacme, I could not just leave him.
Even when I thought that he was cheating on me , I could not kill him.
Even when I knew that he killed my father , I could not leave him.
What I felt for Liam was beyond love .
I was obsessed with him .
" No ," I shook my head ," I am not liking this ."
" This is not a matter of your liking ," my husband said ," I could have buried them somewhere in the mountain by yesterday but you had to drag me to bed last night ."
I squeezed my eyes shut , trying to figure out how to talk some sense into him .
" If he dies ,there will be more problems in the agency ," I said slowly," If his raping incident is revealed, I will get more backlash since I also work in the agency ."
" Would you rather that I let this man walk out alive ?," Liam looked at me like I had asked his to do something impossible, like catching a shooting start and gifting it to me .
" Do you think that I don't want this man dead ?," I threw the question at him now ," Do you think that I don't want to burn him alive ?"
" What do you want me to do then ?," Liam took my bet .
But I could see that he was testing me. The moment I failed here , another man will lose his life for me.
" It will be hectic for me if the chaos breaks out again, I would rather he keeps his position for now and slowly start to work on the legal papers so me and my friends can leave the agency with our reputation intact ," I paused.
" And ?," Liam asked....I could see that he was not really happy with my solution.
I thought for a while ....what else could I ask from him except death of Mr. Stone .
Ah....there was one thing left ..
" Send the information of that girl to Mr. Stone and her children ," I announced ," What's better , let Mr. Stone sit before them as they find out about his past lover ."
" Wouldn't it be wonderful if that girl also comes ?," Liam said gleefully.
" No ! No ! My wife ....she won't forgive this ! Please no !," Mr. Stone shouted ," I can not accept this ."
" We will still have the media and files on this in our hand ," I warned our CEO ," You should be glad that we are not releasing it to the public ."
" You are such a gentle soul ," Liam kissed my cheek," You knew that if we release it to the public , his family will find it out eventually."
" Yes ," I noded ...now I knew that Liam had already figured me out ," That's the last amount of kindness I am willing to show him . Besides , his family needs to know what a monster he is. Mr. Song," I turned at the CEO who looked like he was already dying , " You should be glad that we are not releasing it to the public. Atleast its saving the face of your family."
He bowed at me , touching his head to the ground ," Thank you ."
Everything about him said that he had accepted his fate .
I did not know how this was going to end . If Mr.Song would really shoot himself. And I did not want to find out about it .
As he left us , Liam , also stood up ," Julia , it's a bad habit that you keep forgiving people who wronged you ."
" I did what I thought was the justice ," I lied ," Besides , I am selfish enough to keep my benefits in mind too ."
He sighed ," That's why I have to become harder since you keep being soft like this ."
Never in my life , I had imagined that I would have a casual conversation with my husband about ruining someone's life like this .
" Where are you going ?," I asked him , trying to change the subject ," Is it your work ?"
" Yeah ," he said .
" Are you lying ?," I asked .
He paused and then admitted it ," Yes ."
" Okay ," I tried to stay as calm as possible," Where are you going?"
" Somewhere you would not like to go ," he said," Trust me ."
I got up and with my hand , I turned his head gently towards me so I could look at his eyes ," Tell me....are you going to Seymore , now ?"
" Yes ," he did not bother lying this time ," But too bad that I can't take you since you still can't digest everything."
