True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 1616

Time passed quickly. When Liam looked at his watch, it was already half past ten. He still had to get ready for the banquet. He turned his head around to look at Maria, who was leaning against him. He said softly, "I need to prepare to head out."

Maria had no strength left. When she heard his voice, she looked up at Liam lazily and tried to focus her blurry vision. "Oh, that's right. You still have an appointment. Hurry up and go. I want to sleep."

Liam knew that she was exhausted. "Okay, get some rest. Sleep a little longer. I'll be back as soon as I can. You can order takeaway when you get hungry, all right?"

"Don't worry. I'm not hungry," Maria said. "Go ahead, don't worry about me."

"Okay." Liam kissed her forehead. "Then, I'll head out now."

"Sure."

Liam hurriedly got up, took a shower, and changed into a fashionable suit. He looked very handsome.

When Maria saw him all dressed up, she felt that he looked particularly dazzling. She smiled at Liam and said, "You're going to charm me to death."

Liam was greatly amused. "I don't need to charm you to death. I only need to charm you."

"Of course. I'm completely charmed by your beauty." Maria smiled.

Liam laughed and walked towards her, almost failing to control his urge to be intimate with Maria.

"Please have mercy on me." Maria immediately gave him a pitiful look. "Go, don't be late."

Only then did Liam release her from his embrace and prepare to leave.

"Liam," Maria suddenly called out.

Liam stopped, turning around to look at her.

Maria was staring at him, and she seemed serious. "If your manager thinks that you should take the part, then just accept it. Don't argue with them."

Liam looked at her, smiled, and nodded. "Okay."

After that, he left.

Maria lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling. Even though she was exhausted, she was not sleepy at all.

After Liam left, Maria got up and went to take a shower. After that, she started to do some work.

Meanwhile, Liam had arrived at his management company. Johnny saw him walk into the room and smiled. "You're here, Liam."

"Hi," Liam replied faintly.

Johnny gave him a once-over. "You seem to be in good spirits. Have you adjusted your state of mind?"

"I've always been ready to work," Liam said calmly and confidently. "There was no need to adjust."

"All right then. Consider it a mistake on my part," Johnny smiled and said. "Miss Trevino is here. Why don’t the two of you catch up on old times?"

"There's no need forthat," Liam refused directly.

At that moment, Teresa's voice floated over to them. "My dear classmate, you're too rude. Your manager wanted to give us some time to reminisce about the old days, but you refused directly. It seems that you're not showing any respect at all."

Teresa walked over with a smile. A flash of excitement shone in her eyes when she saw Liam, mixed with complex emotions.

He was getting more and more good-looking, and when he was in a suit, he looked extraordinarily

handsome.

Liam glanced at Teresa. She was no longer in sportswear. Instead, she had on heavy makeup and was wearing a fashionable overcoat over a dress that made her waist look tiny.

It was clear that she had spent a lot of time on her appearance that day.

Liam remained as calm as ever and did now show any intention of greeting her.

Johnny looked at them and shrugged. "You two go ahead and have a chat. I have a phone call to make before we head out."

"Okay, Johnny. Don't let us keep you," Teresa replied.

Once Johnny left, Teresa looked at Liam and said with a smile, "Liam, you look so handsome when you're wearing a suit."

Liam walked to a chair and sat down, then glanced at Teresa. "Were you the one who proposed to have this business meal?"

Teresa nodded and smiled. "Yes. I felt that I should work harder. See, I worked a little harder, and here you are! That makes me very happy."

Liam merely looked at her indifferently. "Teresa, don't waste your energy."

Her body froze, and she felt a chill in her heart.

She could not shake off the feeling that he was telling her to come to her senses.

"Are you telling me that no matter how hard I try, you won't have feelings for me?"

"Yes." Liam nodded. "Be it me or my work."

Teresa was shocked. "I understand if you're talking about your feelings, but why can't I try to help you in your work?"

Liam ignored her.

There was a glint in Teresa's eyes. "Do you intend to leave when your contract expires?"
