His Purchased Wife

Chapter 60

You!!" She snapped fiercely. "What the hell are you doing here?"

Liam casually leaned back in his chair, raised his eyes and pinned them on Aurora who was seething in

anger.

Aurora eyed that lying arrogant receiving bastard sitting leisurely on the chair as if she was not

standing there. The bastard. She thought his chapter was over in her life but no, here he was sitting in

front of her with that mocking smile and confident look on his face which created a riot in her body.

"Answer me?" She yelled at him slapping her hands against the hardwood of the mahogany desk.

"Do I need to remind you about the consequences of using this tone with me, Mrs Knight?" He drawled

in a dangerous silky voice and for a moment Aurora froze. The images of his brutality running in front of

her eyes. She recalled how badly he treated her on that island and she curled her toes in fear.

She gritted her teeth. "What are you doing here?" She forced herself to ask in a composed voice.

"That's the right tone. You will talk to me in this manner only, Mrs Knight."

Aurora was on the brink of killing him. "Who are you, some kind of King…"

"Ah..ah! I am a Knight, wife. Your Knight in the shining armor, that's what girls like you call your

husband right."

Aurora had enough of this, she was no longer on an abandoned island where he could do anything with

her. No, on the contrary, she was in a civilized society now which was governed by law and she would

be damned if she let him suppress herself.

"I won't even keep you as my cleaner, let alone a husband, do you understand me. And I don't fear you

because you can't manhandle me here and if you even think about trying to do that, I will call my dad.

One phone call from him and he will bury you alive."

Fury ran through his veins hearing her words. A cleaner! She compared me to a cleaner.

His rage knew no bounds. He stood up in one swift moment, sprinted towards her and clasped his

hand tightly in a bruising grip. Aurora was startled by the sudden moment, a second ago he was sitting

calmly on the chair he was on her with a blink of her eye. She winced in pain when he pulled her closer

to him.

Their eyes met each other, breathing mingled and heart beating faster as if they had been running for a

long time.

"You will not talk to me in this manner, Mrs Knight." He ordered her and she pushed him in the chest

but for no use as he grabbed her hair from the back of her head and raised her face. Aurora gulped but

tried to squirm away from him.

Liam let her try, he was enjoying her struggles." I am your would-be husband but before that, I am your

boss. So Don't force me to use other methods to keep you in line, Mrs Knight," he drawled silkily.

Aurora, who was struggling to get away from him, froze. My boss!

Liam sharpened his eyes as his gaze roamed on her beautiful pink lips. He touched her lower lip with

his thumb, ruining her lipstick. She looked beautiful with that ruined lipstick and that look of hers ignited

him.

That's what he wanted to do with her, he wanted to ruin her and then pleasure her.

Aurora who was frozen till now got back to her senses when she felt his thumb on her lip. A red hot

rage erupted inside her and she pushed him away with all her strength this time.

"Don't ever touch me again with these unworthy hands of yours and stop lying because I know you are

not my boss, Alexandrio is."

Liam chuckled. "Are you sure? Because last time I checked, The Belle was still mine with its seventy

per cent shares in my name and rest in Alexandrio's. Now wife, if you got answers to all your questions.

I think we should start working…"

Aurora went numb. She kept staring at him for a moment and when she came to her senses she

blasted on him. "You lying deceiving thug! Don't think that I didn't understand it was all your plan just Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

like that island. And if you think that I will work for you then you are an idiot to think that. I won't work for

you…"

Liam smiled, mockingly. "You have to work for me, wife. Maybe you forgot but let me remind you, you

signed a contract with me…"

"To hell with you and your contract. Sue me for all I care!" Saying that she was about to turn to leave

but stopped when she heard Liam's next words.

"Alright, as you wish, wife. You and your friends will be hearing from my lawyers soon."

Friends!

She turned back towards him. "You bastard!" She lunged at him and pushed him hard in the chest. "I

will kill you…"

Liam grabbed both her hands. "If you want me to take you to court I will say do that, but remember

Aurora no matter how wealthy your dad is no one is above the law," he said and the words were not

less than a mockery to him.

It's Vancouver, his city and he is the law here. "Two billion might not be anything to you but what about

your friends because they both have to pay me the same amount individually."

Two billion dollars!

Aurora gulped. "I hate you…" she whispered. There was no way Emily would accept money from her

and she barely had a sum of two hundred thousand dollars in her bank account. And Susan, oh God!

She had the money inherited from her mother. It was nowhere near the amount this man just bark from

his mouth.

He pulled her even closer and sniffed her hair, Aurora stood there motionless. Her mind was not

working. He grabbed her chin and made her look into his eyes.

"I know you are shocked to see me here, Mrs Knight and I don't want you to stress over the situation so

take a day off and relax. Think about what you want to do next but I say, think rationally because even

your father won't like it when you ask her to pay two billion dollars to me," he said, stroking her chin

softly.

Oh, how he wanted to kiss those luscious lips. He needed to jerk himself again or call his whore again

to relieve him.

Fear was visible in her eyes. She pushed him away from her and practically ran out of his cabin.

Once back in her cabin, she searched for her phone and cursed herself because she left her phone in

his office. She couldn't face him again, not yet at least.

She needed to discuss this with Susan. She couldn't share it with Emily, no she would be tense. She

tried to calm herself, all those memories from the island came running back to her mind.

She recalled his scary eyes when she found him in that villa, she recalled his words and how restlessly

he behaved with her. Liam Knight was a nightmare in her life which was not ending, no matter how

hard she tried.

She was sitting in one of the chairs with her head buried in her hands. she jumped when a knock

sounded but calmed when found a man standing at the doorstep with her handbag and drawing book in

his hands.

"Mr knight sent these for you, miss."

She gulped hearing his name again. The man entered and placed her belongings on the desk and left

without a word to her. With shaky hands, she opened her handbag and pulled out her phone, unlocked

it, and speed dial Susan who accepted the call almost immediately.

"Yes, Aurora?" She asked.

And Aurora left the sob she was unknowingly holding. Susan's body stiffened.

"Aurora, are you alright? What happened? Tell me?" Sudan asked, stopping her research about a

design.

"Susie, please come here...please."

Susan closed her laptop. Stood up immediately and ran out of her office to reach her friend as soon as

possible. She didn't even look if anyone was in her way and kept running and suddenly she bumped

into something.

"Jesus!" She swore and touched her head to ease the pain, raised her eyes and found a man standing

in front of her. The man was handsome, no doubt. She usually dates this kind of man but now was not

the time.

"Look where you are going," the man said but his gaze was fixed on her.

"Ya, my apologies." She said negatively and passed by him.

Ralph frowned looking at her departing figure. "Crazy women!" She shook his head and walked

towards Alexandrio's office.

When Susan reached Aurora's cabin her shoulders were shaking lightly. "Aurora?" She whispered,

entering and Aurora ran to her.

"Oh my God, Susan! We are fucked up!"

Susan didn't understand anything and frowned. "What do you mean?"

"How could you make such a big mistake?" Aurora asked her friend anxiously.

"What are you talking about?"

"I am talking about the clause in our contract which states that we have to pay two billion dollars each if

any of us broke any clause of that contract."

Susan took a sharp breath. "You called me here because of this?" She asked her.

"How could you be so calm about it, how could agree to this idiotic clause. I signed the contract without

thinking and saw what we got stuck into?"

Susan rolled her eyes. "Aurora, I agreed to the clause because there was nothing more important for

me than this internship. This is the first step for our big dreams and trust me I would have signed the

contract even if the cause has five billions on it. I mean I don't want to break the contract because of a

stupid clause…"

A stupid clause! Two billion dollars is a stupid clause to her?

Aurora was shocked the second time today. First Liam and now her friend. "Susan, do you have any

idea what you made me sign?"

"What? You are talking as if you have signed a deal with a devil, Aurora. Chill out! It's just a matter of

two months and after that we will have everything we have dreamed about together. Our own brand.

The contest gave us recognition and that too on our own and not because who your or mine daddy is!"

Only if you knew, Susie! Only if you knew where I am stuck because of that stupid clause. There is no

good in telling Susan about Liam. I have to call dad's lawyer to get me to help out of this stupid

contract.

Because one thing was certain that Aurora King would never work for that lying, deceiving man named

Liam Knight!!

On the other hand, Liam called Ethan and told him about the contract details. At first, Ethan didn't like

the method Liam was using to charm his daughter but knowing how stubborn Aurora could be he

accepted to help him.

"Two months, Liam. That's all you have," reminding him, Ethan ended the call.

Liam threw his phone on the desk in anger. "Woo his daughter as if it's as easy as buying candies from

a candy shop."

Just then a knock sounded on his food and Ralph entered. "You look a little angry."

Liam pinched the bridge of his nose. Ralph walked up to him and chuckled. "Aurora King, I guess. So

any progress in wooing my daughter's project?" Ralph asked mockingly.

"I don't have time for this nonsense. Tell me about the Italians? Have they decided to meet?"

Ralph's feature tightened at the mention of Jury. "Bad news again, It's heard that the masked man

signed the deal with Italians again. We lost almost fifty million dollars of weed…"

Liam was enraged. "Who the fuck is this masked man?" He muttered under his breath.

Ralph sighed because even after trying no one could gather information about this masked man who

had created nuisance in Liam's life.
