No Trespassing! My Aloof Brother - Chapter 687 - 685: Bet with Me [2nd Update]
At that time, he realized that Sophia Bennett had real feelings for Christopher Scott, and she was just fooling around with others, driven by a determination that would not rest until she succeeded.
Therefore, Christopher Scott would inevitably become hers.
"Knock knock knock..." Just then, someone suddenly knocked on the door of his office.
Liam Spencer politely said, "Please come in!"
However, when he looked up, he saw Lillian Morris pushing the door open and walking in.
Liam Spencer immediately put down his work, a cold smile curled on his lips, and with his right foot propping on the desk, he slid the chair back a bit, squinting lazily at Lillian Morris.
He had not expected Lillian Morris to come looking for him at Owen Clan Group.
Since their meeting at the restaurant where Lillian Morris saw him with Maya Spencer, she hadn’t made any moves work-wise; he thought Lillian Morris had given up on trying to jeopardize his relationship with Maya Spencer and accepted their feelings for each other.
However, judging by the current situation, this guy seemed to not believe in his love with Maya Spencer; because he saw hostility in Lillian Morris’s eyes.
Liam Spencer knew full well why Lillian Morris had come.
He casually watched the man, waiting for his confrontation, having confidence in Maya Spencer’s feelings for him.
After Lillian Morris’s return, Maya Spencer’s attitude toward her hadn’t changed; besides that one time he caught them, Maya Spencer hadn’t seen Lillian Morris; Maya Spencer’s feelings for him were genuine, Liam Spencer could tell.
Lillian Morris looked at the carefree man in front of her, involuntarily recalling Maya Spencer’s coquettish demeanor in the restaurant.
She remembered Maya Spencer calling Liam Spencer "Third Brother," being very gentle in front of him, and in the deserted underground parking, they were even more affectionate.
Lillian Morris hadn’t spent much time with Maya Spencer, and couldn’t judge what version of Maya Spencer was real or fake; she didn’t know if Maya Spencer’s feelings for Liam Spencer were a performance.
Thus, she had no choice but to visit Liam Spencer, to discuss matters personally with him; since she couldn’t detect any flaws from Maya Spencer, she might find some from Liam Spencer.
After all, they were both men, and men understand men.
The two of them locked eyes, charged with sparks of electricity, as if eager to tear each other apart.
Lillian Morris stared unwaveringly at Liam Spencer; as she approached his desk, she carelessly kicked aside the chair opposite him and sat down casually.
Then, she slapped the document onto Liam Spencer’s desk and said nonchalantly, "This is the transfer contract for the land in W City. Please, Third Young Master, sign it. I’m returning it, although I have no interest in this project."
"Haha..." Liam Spencer couldn’t help but laugh when he saw Lillian Morris returning what belonged to him.
This was somewhat unexpected; he hadn’t thought that Lillian Morris would cough up the money she’d pocketed.
Lillian Morris watched Liam Spencer’s cold smile, her lips curled into an equally sinister grin, as if to say that such small projects didn’t interest her at all!
To her surprise, she had thought her return would incite a life-or-death duel with Liam Spencer, resulting in mutual devastation, but Liam Spencer didn’t even respond, letting her take Owen Clan Group’s benefits.
She admitted that, after two years, the young man in front of her had matured considerably.
Yet, she was still uneasy leaving Maya Spencer by his side, so she came to negotiate with Liam Spencer, seeking freedom for Maya Spencer.
Liam Spencer looked at Lillian Morris’s disparaging smile, he took a deep breath, leaned forward, hands crossed and resting on the table, supporting his chin, frowning as he stared at Lillian Morris, asking, "President Morris, surely you’ve come for more than just returning my project?"
Liam Spencer was curious to see what tricks Lillian Morris had up her sleeve to take Maya Spencer away from him.
Two years ago, he hadn’t managed to whisk Maya Spencer away; and two years later, there was even less of a chance.
Lillian Morris listening to Liam Spencer’s question, a mysterious smile played at her lips.
After smiling, her expression immediately turned serious, and she earnestly stared at Liam Spencer, asking, "Liam Spencer, are you and Maya real? Is Maya willingly staying by your side?"
In Lillian Morris’s memory, Maya staying with Liam Spencer had always been compromise; for him, for the Hanson Clan Group.
Listening to Lillian Morris’s words, Liam Spencer coldly chuckled twice, ironically asking, "Young Master Morris, what do you think? If Maya wasn’t willing to stay by my side, would she have agreed to marry me?"
There are still 40 days until Liam Spencer and Maya’s wedding, and up until now, nothing has changed between the two.
Although Liam Spencer’s words were reasonable, Lillian Morris still didn’t believe it, she asked, "I’ve been gone for two years, why did you not get married earlier or later, but announce your wedding just as I came back; Liam Spencer, are you threatening Maya again, forcing her to marry you?"
Remember how Liam Spencer had used this trick to keep Maya by his side back then?
"Pfft..." Liam Spencer couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing Lillian Morris’ analysis.
Then, he took a deep breath, sympathetically saying, "Young Master Morris, you think too highly of yourself. When I proposed to Maya, you were still on the plane, it was just a coincidence. I don’t need to threaten Maya; even if you gave her the whole world, she wouldn’t leave me." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
"Also, two years ago, it was you who tricked Maya, not that she was willing to leave with you; her heart was already with me."
Liam Spencer’s words were filled with unwavering confidence, he was certain Maya loved him.
"Liam Spencer, I’ve experienced your shamelessness before. Do you think I’ll believe these façade words? Are you willing to make a bet with me?" Lillian Morris did not believe Liam Spencer’s words.
If she hadn’t seen with her own eyes Maya choosing Liam Spencer freely, she wouldn’t believe any word Liam Spencer said; she didn’t fully trust Maya’s words either, because she might stay with Liam Spencer to protect everyone.
Upon hearing Lillian Morris mention a bet, Liam Spencer’s gaze froze for a moment, then he casually smiled and asked, "What kind of bet?"
"Would you dare to break up with Maya? Promise her that you won’t use me, Aron Hanson, or James Bennett to threaten her, let her choose freely just once. If she chooses you without any pressure, I, Lillian Morris, will concede."
Recently, Lillian Morris had gathered a lot of information about Liam Spencer and Maya, including rumors of breakup during Maya and James Bennett’s recognition period, which she investigated thoroughly.
Although she found that Liam Spencer helped Maya that time; however, it made her believe more strongly that Maya’s feelings were coerced, because Liam Spencer’s power was too strong, so strong that Maya couldn’t afford to provoke him.
But now, circumstances were different, Morris Clan Group had grown strong enough, and if allied with Hanson Clan Group and Bennett Clan Group, Liam Spencer might not stand a chance.
Therefore, she wanted to use this chance to win freedom for Maya; if Maya truly chose Liam Spencer, she would sincerely wish them well.
