Faux Vows, True Desires novel Chapter 292

"Tiffany!"

Liam snapped back to reality and yelled.

Tiffany, who had already left the study, stopped in her tracks and turned around at the sound of his voice. She smiled and said, "You're such a slowpoke, but I find that adorable. It shows you're still so innocent."

Liam had zero experience with love.

Tiffany was satisfied with Liam's innocent behaviour. No matter how much Liam freaked out, Tiffany would just laugh and leave.

Liam hurriedly chased after her, or rather, he skated out on the soybeans scattered all over the floor.

Because the floor was covered in soybeans.

In haste, he slipped on the soybeans and fell flat on his face.

He fell like a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey.

Luckily, no one saw his embarrassing fall.

Picking himself up, Liam rushed to the staircase and looked down. Tiffany was already chatting away with Ann, both of them laughing.

"You scoundrel, you just kissed me and left before I even had a chance to react. That's so unfair. Unfair!"

Liam was so frustrated he was practically pacing at the top of the stairs.

Then he scolded himself, "Why did you just stand there, you idiot? She kissed you, an opportunity that's hard to come by, and you just stood there like a dummy, missing the chance to kiss her back. And she didn't like the taste of the kiss because of the onion? Whoever puts onions in my food from now on is my enemy!"

Liam, Tiffany disliked for having an onion-flavored kiss, swore he'd never eat onions again, no onions in his food.

Liam, who hadn't really tasted the sweetness of a kiss, spun around in place for a while before he finally accepted the sad reality.

It was over! His first kiss was over just like that!

"Ann!"

Liam shouted from the top of the stairs.

Ann quickly responded, "Mr. Liam, what's the matter?"

"Get someone to clean up all the soybeans in my study. Not a single one should be left! From tomorrow on, I want fresh soymilk!"

He'd have all the soybeans made into soymilk, so Tiffany wouldn't have the chance to mess with him using soybeans!

"Alright, I'll get right on it."

After Ann agreed, she exchanged a few words with Tiffany and then quickly went upstairs to clean up the soybeans.

Tiffany looked up at Liam with a smile as bright as the sun outside. She kissed him, didn't wait for his response, and left.

Damn it! She teased him and then ran off!

By evening, all the shoppers had returned.

All the moms went straight back to the Serendipity Cafe. Lucinda felt they must be tired from shopping all day and suggested they go home and rest.

Janice remained silent.

Fiona and Jeannie looked at Lucinda, their meaning clear.

Lucinda understood. She went and sat next to Janice, asking with a smile, "Mom, what did you buy after shopping all day?"

"I bought a lot of clothes. They're all in the car, and there were too many to bring in."

"Not bad, quite a haul. I can't wait to see how beautiful you'll look in your new clothes, mom."
