CHAPTER 355: CHAPTER 353: HE WILL GO MAD [3 UPDATES]

It was only then he realized, it wasn’t that he was rational, but that he had never met someone who made him emotional.

Beside him, Maya Spencer listened to Lillian Morris’s confession, her eyes widened suddenly, her breathing stopped as well, everything seemed unreal, yet Lillian was so genuinely there beside her, looking at her.

She took a deep breath, turned her head awkwardly towards the window, pretending not to hear Lillian’s confession.

During this time, it seemed as if she had run into Cupid, discovering not only that Liam Spencer liked her, but even Lillian confessed to her.

Although he didn’t say it outright, she understood nevertheless.

But this feeling wasn’t pleasant, making her flustered and bewildered.

If Liam didn’t exist, if she hadn’t had a past with him, hadn’t experienced the miscarriage, she would definitely have accepted Lillian’s confession, and would follow him without hesitation. But unfortunately, she wasn’t that lucky, she met him too late.

Lillian saw her avoiding him, understanding she was flustered, for after all, everything today was too sudden, and she needed time to process.

At this moment, the flight attendant reminded everyone to fasten seat belts as the plane was about to take off, yet Maya was still staring blankly out of the window.

Lillian noticed this, leaned over, and buckled her seat belt for her.

Maya felt Lillian’s proximity and was so frightened she almost burst, her face flushed red, even her ears were red.

After buckling the seat belt, Lillian looked at her red ears and couldn’t help but chuckle, then reached out, pinched her ear gently, and said, "No need to be nervous, I’m not going to eat you."

"Haha!" Maya listened to his teasing, her eyes squinted into slits, and forced a smile at him.

As the plane began to taxi, Maya’s heart raced faster and faster, as if it would leap out of her mouth. She closed her eyes tightly and kept reassuring herself: Maya, you’re going to be free, you no longer have to please Liam, no need to act for him, nor suffer his threats. You should be happy, you should live happily with Lillian, that’s the right way to open your life.

As for those past events, they are just the past. Lillian doesn’t mind, so why should you overthink? Besides, nowadays, who doesn’t encounter a few bad men? Just treat it as an emotional lesson for yourself, and live well with Lillian in the future.

He gave up so much for you, you should cherish it. Don’t you like him? Give him a response, say you like him, say you want to be with him, say you look forward to a new life.

Even though Maya kept comforting herself, she still couldn’t be happy, couldn’t confess to Lillian, her mind still kept flashing back Liam’s image.

She remembered him shedding tears alone in the study for their first child, remembered her sprained ankle and him squatting on the ground to piggyback her, remembered last night when he came back and asked for a hug, remembered countless tangled nights they had.

The more Maya thought about Liam, the more guilty she felt, her little hands twisting together repeatedly.

When she imagined Liam’s furious appearance, her brows furrowed tightly, and her teeth unconsciously bit down hard on her lower lip.

She was questioning herself, what exactly had she done, how could she run away without saying a word?

Three years ago when she left, at least she had left him a miscarriage report, at least she had conveyed her intention to leave in advance.

But this time, it was a complete surprise attack, just last night she was still cuddling up to him, begging him for mercy.

At this moment, Maya dared not think any deeper, dared not imagine what Liam’s reaction would be upon learning she had escaped.

"Uh!" Due to being too nervous, Maya suddenly hiccuped. She was so scared, she wanted to get off the plane, to quickly go back home while Liam knew nothing and wait for him to return from work.

"Maya, what’s wrong?" Lillian got nervous seeing the girl suddenly hiccup.

"Brother Morris, I can’t go with you. I have to go back, or Liam will go crazy." Maya said as she started unbuckling her seat belt, wanting to get up and leave.

"Maya, don’t mess around, the plane is already taking off, how can you go back?" Maya’s nervous appearance left Lillian quite helpless.

Then, he continued, "Once we’re gone, he can’t find us, you don’t need to be afraid of him."

Lillian thought Maya’s fear stemmed from her fear of Liam.

"It’s not like that, he will definitely go mad, he will definitely go crazy." At this moment, Maya looked a little crazy.

Lillian saw the girl’s extreme panic, her eyes filled with a flustered and vacant look, and felt she seemed to have been greatly shaken.

Therefore, Lillian no longer argued with her, nor forcibly instilled his own thoughts, but held her in his arms, gently patting her back, comforting her: "All right, all right, I won’t take you away. But the plane is already taking off now, there’s no way to return it. If at the airport you are still scared and want to come back, we can buy a ticket back, okay?"

Lillian thought to temporarily calm Maya, to stabilize her mood. Maybe after getting off the plane, she wouldn’t be scared anymore, so he adopted a delaying tactic first.

"Okay, good!" Maya listened to Lillian’s suggestion and nodded in agreement.

"Miss, could you please pour us a cup of hot water?" Seeing that Maya was still hiccupping, Lillian asked the flight attendant for a cup of hot water.

A moment later, the water arrived, and Maya held the cup tightly with both hands, staring closely at the clouds outside the window, pondering how she would explain this meaningless trip to Liam after returning to S City.

As time passed, Maya’s emotions gradually stabilized. She didn’t understand why the person she constantly thought about was Liam, and why she was so afraid that he would go mad.

Could it be, as Lillian said, that her fear of Liam had become a habit?

"Hoo..." She exhaled deeply, easing her inner tension, thinking, regardless of fear or habit, in conclusion, Liam was someone she couldn’t afford to offend, nor someone she dared to offend.

Lillian watched as the girl’s emotions slowly recovered, yet his own heart had not calmed. The earlier flustered Maya worried him, he felt she had been scared out of her wits by Liam.

He stared at Maya for a moment and carefully said, "You are really afraid of Liam."

"I’m not afraid of him." Maya denied.

"It’s my fault." Listening to the girl’s denial, Lillian inexplicably blamed himself.

Maya felt baffled by what she heard, but didn’t pursue it further, because at this moment, Liam’s emotional state was most important to her, so she couldn’t delve into what Lillian meant.

Meanwhile, in the Owen Clan Group chairman’s office!

Liam Spencer, like always, was still thinking about how to make more money.

At this moment, he glanced at the time at the lower right corner of the computer, it was already 11:30, so he picked up the phone and dialed someone’s number.
