The Wife I Never Met
Chapter 40

“what nonsense are you spewing, you know very well the kind of person your brother is, and would never play with women like that. Annie is a good girl he wouldn’t do that to her or I’ll kill him myself.”

Maggie was angry at her younger son’s comment, yes he was more of an expert in the love department than Liam was but that did not mean that he could name Liam a cassanova, a person who is a womanizer.

Azlea Liam’s teenage sister was also agreeing with her mom she also didn’t like it when her favorite brother was being called a cassanova.

” I agree with mom, Liam is certainly not like that at all. Although he is not with both women but I’m certain he is with the scriptwriter.”

But everyone in the room looked at her with confusion, they didn’t know the woman and never heard of her existence yet Azlea is certain about the woman’s relationship with their Liam.

” Azzy you’ve never seen this woman before, how could you be so sure that she’s involved with your brother?” Maggie asked with concern, as much as she liked Annie and felt that she was from a good family and carried herself with respect,, Maggie was never type to put status first, to her love was more important. So if what Azlea said is true she would want to meet her and see for herself the kind of person Ciara was and whether what they have is really love or she had other hidden motives.

“well I’ve seen enough to be certain that my brother has fallen in love. Plus he was never going to date with Annie in the first place.”

Maggie frowned “why do you say that? I’ve worked very hard with the mayor to bring the two together, why would there be a problem.?”

Azlea sneered, “huh I guess the mayor doesn’t know his own daughter then, or maybe he’s pushing his own agenda. Ask Annie maybe she’ll tell you.”

Listening to what her daughter just revealed, all she could think of was that Annie had lied about her relationship status. She probably had a man that she was hiding.’ But why would she do that? Or could it be that she had a sugar daddy and she was a sugar baby being sponsored by an old man.’

It wasn’t shocking that Maggie thought that way when Annie came from a relatively rich family, because most people did it for fun, they seek the thrill of the hidden relationship.

Ciara ended up regretting her decision of walking in to that bathroom as she now had spent close to an hour in there. She was exhausted and her joints took the toll. Immediately when she reached her bed she fell asleep without a single word, that’s how tired she was.

The following morning she was woken up by delicious aromas penetrating her nostrils. Liam had brought her breakfast in bed, feeling guilty for getting carried away last night he decided to make-up for his actions.

“wake up sleepy head it’s time to eat, you know you need all the energy you can get.”

“mhmmmm and who drained all that energy out of my body? .”

“Hey I made all this for you, take it as a peace offering.” he said that while grinning flashing her two rows of pearl white teeth.

“Peace offering my foot you know you are going to repeat that….. Anyway did Ms Nicky make that, looks delicious.”

How could Liam let Ms Nicky all the credits while he was the one cooking. Yes she was the one telling him what to do but he did the actual labor. So it can be said that he’s the one who cooked.

” don’t look down on me sweetheart, I can do a lot more than you think. Mind if I show you?”

He was now following her to the bathroom as she was brushing her teeth, but Ciara wasn’t having it, not after the night she’s had. She wasn’t about to let history repeat itself. So she pushed him out of the door urging him to leave.

” No no boy, not today you can’t fool me twice……. Out out, now.”

Liam laughed as he surrendered, and turned back to their room.

“Hurry now, breakfast is best eaten while it’s still hot. I’m heading to the office now, take care of yourself. “

He then left the house and made his way to the office. Although the company was now closed for the holidays he and a few of the important staff were still due to work, there’s always alot to do in order to maintain such a large enterprise.

When Ciara got out of the bathroom she heaved a sigh of relief as she noticed that Liam had left for work. She thought finally she would be able to eat her breakfast in peace, although she was still hesitant whether to taste it or not. She just didn’t trust Liam’s culinary skills but since it was prepared with love by her loving husband, she would have to try it. So she took a deep breath and dug in, she was pleasantly surprised by Liam’s abilities. Who knew?….
