Faux Vows, True Desires novel Chapter 289

Ascend Global.

Liam knocked on the CEO's office door and only entered upon receiving a response.

"Stefan."

He walked over with a handful of documents and handed them to Stefan.

"Why are you here in person?"

Stefan took the documents and casually tossed them onto the desk, asking Charles without giving it much of a thought.

"Is there something you need to tell me?"

Liam chuckled as he took a seat, "You really know me well."

Stefan looked at him, "Out with it, what's so important that you had to come in person."

"Um, has Tiffany really moved into my house?"

"Tiffany?"

Liam clarified and wanted to make it easy for him to understand, "The bossy woman."

Stefan laughed and genuinely asked, "In what way is Tiffany bossy? She's gorgeous, with an incredible figure like a model, she's like a magnet wherever she goes, attracting countless men's attention. She's the dream girl of many guys. But in your mouth, she turns into a bossy woman."

"Holt Wilson is a man, does that mean he's a sissy to you?"

Stefan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Holt is a bit feminine, if it wasn't for the fear of shocking his family, he might have already had a sex-change operation. Tiffany didn't move into your house yesterday, but you're asking about it now. Liam, what are you up to?"

Liam said, being a bit embarrassed, "I've been too scared to go home, but I left some important stuff there. I wanted to sneak back and get it, so I'm here to ask for leave."

Stefan then teased him, "Are you still a man, being this scared of a woman? You were there every time when Tiffany was in trouble. Why did you always run away so fast? Back in school when she was in a fight, you didn't even have time to notify us, you just rushed to help her on your own, almost getting yourself expelled from school. You've done this kind of thing more than once."

"Well. I just didn't want her to get beaten up, then I wouldn't have anyone to fight with me. Who would worry about her? With her quarrelsome nature, I wouldn't worry about her."

"You always lose to her, isn't it because you're not capable? Or are you just going easy on her?"

Liam sat upright and said, "I'm a man, I don't hit women and I really can't beat her, she's trained in Sanda, Taekwondo, Tai Chi, she was like a boy when she was young, she would learn any martial art that she heard was good, and she was even better than me!"

Stefan stared at Liam for a while, then finally said, "Liam, I seriously suspect that you're targeting her because you're jealous of Tiffany being better than you."

"Jealous of her? Does she think she's great? If she's so great, why doesn't she get married? She's so bossy and crude, who would dare to marry her? I'm a cultured man, I won't say nasty words, lest she hears it and comes to argue with me."

"Why haven't you found a partner if you're so great? Your parents keep trying to introduce you to new people, they think you're leftover good and you still dare to mention Tiffany."

Liam then said, "Stefan, I've noticed that you've changed since you got married, you love to flaunt your love in front of us, stimulate us singles, and like to show your authority as an elder brother, starting to pressure us to get married. When you were single, we could always push you forward whenever the elders brought up the topic of marriage, but now."

Liam was stared at by Stefan and felt too embarrassed to continue.
