CHAPTER 342: CHAPTER 340 CONFESSION LEADS TO LENIENCY [5 UPDATES]

Listening to the girl’s apology, Liam Spencer then supported her back head, gently pulled her toward his embrace, looked down at her little face, and asked, "Why are you apologizing?"

Liam Spencer’s inquiry made Maya Spencer choke up, her body trembling more and more violently, not daring to meet Liam Spencer’s eyes.

The man saw she was silent, "Hmm?" he pressed further.

Maya Spencer knew he wasn’t angry yet, it was the calm before the storm. But after thinking for a long time, she couldn’t come up with a reasonable excuse. Her two small hands twisted together until it hurt, and she still couldn’t say anything.

Liam Spencer looked at her twisted small hands and gently pried them apart.

"That... that... I... I..."

"I shouldn’t have made excuses not to attend the banquet, shouldn’t have gone to see Lillian Morris. I was wrong, I know I was wrong." After Liam Spencer released Maya Spencer’s hands, Maya stammered for a long time and then closed her eyes admitting her mistake, hoping for a lenient confession.

Liam Spencer listened to her confession without speaking, still looking down at her.

This version of Liam Spencer gave Maya Spencer an inexplicable sense of fear, she lifted her head just in time to meet his gaze, and hurriedly waved her small hand to explain, "We only had a few words, nothing happened."

"Do you want something to happen?" Liam Spencer asked calmly.

Though he was in a bad mood and minded that Maya Spencer deceived him to meet Lillian Morris, seeing her fear of him made his anger fade away.

He wondered how bad he was to make her so afraid, even to the point her teeth were chattering while speaking.

Seeing her fear of him, he dared not scold her anymore, nor make her fear him even more.

Liam Spencer didn’t realize that even a simple sentence from him could make Maya Spencer ponder for a long time, afraid that she’d say a wrong word to upset him.

Just like now, facing his question, Maya Spencer panicked, hurriedly waving her small hand to explain, "No, no, I didn’t want anything to happen."

Seeing the girl’s fear of him, Liam Spencer didn’t want to pursue the matter of her meeting Lillian Morris further, fearing he’d scare her to death.

So, he stopped questioning her and instead took her small hand, saying, "Let’s go back to the hotel."

"Hmm!" Maya Spencer followed behind him, thinking it’s over, it’s over! Going back, she would face the account settlement, and today she couldn’t escape some abuse.

The relationship that barely improved would collapse again tonight, thinking about what she’d face next, Maya Spencer’s palms were sweating, while also praying Liam Spencer would just punish her alone and not vent at the Morris Clan Group.

Feeling her cold little hand, Liam Spencer released her hand, took off his suit jacket, and put it on her.

"Thank you!" Maya Spencer quickly expressed her gratitude.

"You’re welcome." Liam Spencer said as he took her hand again and walked toward the wooden stairs.

Maya Spencer followed Liam Spencer, her soul nearly scared out of her. She just knew, as long as it was related to the Spencer Family, there was no good thing.

"Ah..." Maya Spencer walked while guessing, stepped on the third step, suddenly missed a step, her body fell backward, breaking free from Liam Spencer’s hand, "Bang," a heavy fall to the ground, as Liam Spencer reached out to catch her, she had already fallen.

He looked at the girl who fell down the stairs, very unhappy, thinking, is Lillian Morris so important? Just seeing him made her lose her mind, what exactly is good about him?

Liam Spencer didn’t know that Maya Spencer was so terrified of him, she was thinking about how to deal with him, that’s why she fell, it had nothing to do with Lillian Morris.

This time, Liam Spencer didn’t reach out to pull her up because his mood was in the dumps. She saw Lillian Morris for less than a dozen minutes and fell twice, hit her head once, he really wanted to get angry, wanted to leave her here alone to ignore, but afraid she’d run off with Lillian Morris, so stood on the stairs, kept looking at her, waiting for her to get up by herself.

On the beach, Maya Spencer’s buttock wasn’t hurt too badly, but when her right foot stepped out and twisted, it hurt so much she bit her own lip fiercely, breaking her lip.

A moment later, Liam Spencer saw the girl sitting on the ground still not getting up, then used his foot to prod her and asked, "Do you want to go with him?"

Besides this excuse, Liam Spencer couldn’t find a better reason to exonerate her.

"I twisted my foot." At this moment, Maya Spencer felt aggrieved, tears "swoosh swoosh swoosh" burst from her eyes.

She clearly never thought about running away with Lillian Morris, but Liam Spencer accused her time and again, even when her foot twisted, he still suspected her, could she not feel aggrieved? Thinking she lived so carefully, she hated herself for coming back, for being seen by him, for being bullied by him, unable to fight back.

Thinking about her own grievances, she really had an impulse to elope with Lillian Morris, let Liam Spencer go find someone else to give a hard time, let someone else see his bad temper.

"Which foot?" Liam Spencer heard her foot twisted, obviously tense, yet pretended to be calm, and didn’t squat down to check her.

Clearly, he was still angry, mad that she was flustered because of Lillian Morris.

"Right foot." Maya Spencer said, then supported herself on the ground with both hands, using her left foot to stand up.

When she swayed unsteadily, she instinctively stepped her right foot on the ground, this step hurt so much her bone shattered, tears collapsed instantly, tears ’pat pat pat’ fell down, she no longer suppressed her cries, painfully ’wah wah’ shouted.

At this moment, Liam Spencer couldn’t stand it, disdainfully rolled his eyes at her and then knelt with one knee in front of her, signaling for her to hop on his back.

Yet Maya Spencer didn’t accept it either, she expected him to lend a hand earlier, and he didn’t, he didn’t ask much, she minded. Couldn’t he put aside his petty mind for now and talk about it later back home? Had to make her embarrassed like this.

So she hopped two steps, bypassing Liam Spencer, stubbornly using her right foot to support herself, walked up the stairs.

Liam Spencer saw she ignored him, was fuming with rage, suddenly stood up from the ground, looked at her back, shouted, "Maya Spencer."

"I can walk by myself." Maya Spencer continued to be stubborn, not wanting to compromise to him.

Liam Spencer watched the girl being stubborn and pouting, his anger rose sky high, thinking why did she run out late at night to see Lillian Morris? He hadn’t even held her accountable yet, and she’s throwing a fit; looks like recently she’s been spoiled.

But there was no way, now he had no temper towards Maya Spencer. Even if unhappy, showing her a sullen face was considered a big deal.

Watching her limping towards the hotel, Liam Spencer put his hands on his waist, angrily paced back and forth, wanting to strangle her, would showing weakness to him kill?

Liam Spencer didn’t know, Maya Spencer’s stubbornness had nothing to do with Lillian Morris, she simply minded he didn’t care about her earlier.

On the wooden stairs, Maya Spencer jumped on her own, seeing Liam Spencer hadn’t caught up yet, her heart felt so bad, so aggrieved.

A moment later, she heard Liam Spencer’s angry footsteps coming towards her, she also immediately quickened her steps ’bang bang bang’ and jumped forward.
