Chapter 37_ Boss of me
Amelia paced around her room wondering who could possibly want her dead, “who is responsible for this and why?” she questioned herself.
“you really don’t know? you are bound to have enemies with your bad attitude, don’t be surprised if you found out that I’m responsible for your attack” Liam sarcastically said staring at his laptop.
Amelia rolled her eyes at his words “just focus on your work”.
Her eyes landed on the tiny dog statue she tried to steal the other day. She walked towards the shinny little fella calling her attention.
When her hand was just about to touch it, Liam caught her hand “don’t try to steal it this time”.
“You are not the boss of me to tell me what to do and not do, we are only bound by a freaky contract”. Amelia argued.
“so you know everything about the contract huh? and yet you are having a relationship with someone else”.
Amelia raised a brow “Liam! how could you think like that? and by the way why are you acting like I committed a huge crime?”…..
“You’ve committed a crime!” Liam angrily said jerking Amelia a bit..

Louisa stared into space earlier today Jake almost ended their relationship because Dylan passed the night at her house. She picked up her phone again trying his line again.
She sighed, the telephone rang beside her “I’ll be there”
She stood up from her seat picking a file from the table she entered his office.
Dylan was concentrated on his laptop when she entered his office “drop the file on the table and make me a cup of tea” he ordered without raising his head up.
Few minutes later she returned with a cup of tea placing it on his desk. He picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Almost immediately he spat it out jerking out of his seat “what is the meaning of this Lou?” Dylan raised his voice a little.
Louisa rushed to his side “what is wrong with it?” she questioned.
She picked the teacup taking a sip, ‘oh goodness! I added salt instead of sugar’ she scolded herself inwardly.
“I’m so sorry it was a mistake I’ll make another cup for you” she apologized.
Dylan waved her off “don’t bother it looks like you are trying to kill me because of what happened last night”.
He returned back to his seat picking up the file she brought “What is wrong with you today Lou? this isn’t what I asked for!” he scolded.
Louisa sighed today wasn’t really her day, Jake was refusing to pick her calls and it was affecting her work. “I’ll do the necessary amendment”.
Dylan knew something was bothering her, he also had a hunch on what it could be.
Louisa’s phone beeped, her sour mood suddenly lightened up like a sun it was a text from Jake.
‘ I’m sorry Louisa I was in a business meeting and couldn’t take your call, I hope you understand see you later. love you’.
Those sentence alone sent her flying high in the clouds.
Dylan cleared his throat to bring her out of her Dreamland, he saw how elated her mood became after reading something on her phone.
“Huh….. Louisa drop what you are holding on the table there are some documents I kept inside that room over there I need it now hurry up” Dylan pointed to a room adjacent to him.
Louisa dropped her phone on his desk and left for the room after she was gone he picked up her phone going through it his lips formed a smirk.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
‘so he is the reason? tsk’. he mused slightly irritated.
He dropped her phone back when he heard her footsteps approaching. “I couldn’t find anything in there”.
“don’t worry about it I’ve seen what I was searching for” he dismissed her.
Louisa found his attitude strange she picked up her phone from his desk and left the office.

Few days later,
Amelia looked through her window, after she was involved in that accident Liam has tightened the security around her she couldn’t even step out of her room without being escorted like a thief.
There was a knock on the door she walked to the door, just who could it be now?
She opened the door to find the new maid that Liam hired to tend to her needs. “yes? is anything wrong?”.
Amelia doesn’t know why but she gets a bad vibe from this lady in front of her. she bowed slightly, “Young master requests your presence” she said softly with her head still bowed.
“Liam is around?” she asked herself.
Amelia came out of her room with her maid tailing behind her.
She got downstairs to find the living room empty, she left for his study room to find it empty also.
“Where could he have gone?”..
..
The maid entered Liam’s room after making sure no one was around.
She touched the walls to check for cracks or any abnormal part, she knocked the wall slightly placing her ears on it to check for any off sounds.
“darn it boss nothing is in here!” She cursed silently.
She quickly left the room and almost immediately Liam came out of the secret compartment in his room.
He looked around the room it smelt different, he walked towards the vanity table picking Amelia’s body spray and sniffed it.
The door opened as Amelia stepped in “how did you get in here? I was looking around for you”.
“Did you get a new spray?” Liam inquired. “why? do you want to criticize me? well no” she said collecting her spray from him.
Liam’s eyes scanned the room, he was sure that someone was here a while ago, Amelia also followed his line of sight. “is something wrong? I mean you were suddenly interested in my body spray”.
“Do you smell something unusual?” Liam asked.
Amelia sniffed the air “yes! I can smell your abnormal behaviour”.
“I thought you left for work a while ago why did you come back so early? and besides what do you need me for?”.
Liam placed his hand into his pants pockets walking around the room, something was not right.
“why would I need you? I never called you okay?” Liam arrogantly stated walking to the golden tiny dog statue his eyes examined it for a while.
“hey there! Mr Arrogant you asked that weird maid to call me don’t lie now!”.
Liam’s squinted his eyes at her “what?”.
After he entered the secret room earlier today he never came out until now.
“you heard me!”.
Liam headed out of the room hurriedly “Weirdo!” she called after.
.
.
.
The maid shivered slightly under the scrutinizing gaze of Liam, he stood up from his seat walking towards her.
Amelia watched the scene in front of her with a puzzled look. ‘what is he trying to prove?’
Her eyes almost popped out of its sockets when she saw Liam leaning forward to the maid.
“Liam!”
He was a bit startled by her outburst “have you no shame? what are you trying to do?”.
With folded hands, she gave him a strange look which made her look really funny.
“guards!” he suddenly called out.
In mere seconds six hefty men came forward “take her away and make sure she spills everything she knows!” Liam ordered which made the maid flinch.
“w.. w.. hat are…. you saying boss?” the maid panicked slightly.
His guards held her arm pulling her out of the living room.
Amelia came forward standing in front of him “see? I knew she was up to no good but you never listen to me! and were you trying to kiss her a while ago?”.
She scrunched her face in disgust.
Liam flicked her forehead slightly “crazy girl” he mumbled and left leaving her to fume by herself.
