CHAPTER 357: CHAPTER 355: WAITING FOR A RABBIT [5 UPDATES]

These days, they have been getting along well without any conflicts, he didn’t even care about her meeting Lillian Morris in private. However, they took him for a fool, pushing their luck.

Liam Spencer didn’t want to consider that Maya Spencer’s recent compromises were just an act, a mere delaying tactic.

He didn’t want to believe that Maya had been plotting to leave him, that her tenderness was just to stabilize his emotions, to placate him, while she and Lillian were plotting an elopement.

Despite not wanting to believe that Maya had betrayed him, his mind couldn’t help but wander in that direction.

He had to suspect that Maya had always been acting, always contemplating leaving him.

He still remembered her saying that she wouldn’t be with Lillian, that she would stay by his side, that it was her promise to him.

Looking back now, Liam felt it was a joke. Her compliance was never willing, never from the heart.

She hated him so deeply, how could she stay by his side? Even for the Morris and Hanson Clans, she wouldn’t want to keep acting this charade, Liam felt he was such a failure.

Even knowing that her heart wasn’t with him, he was still deceived by her acting, still believed in her.

In the car, Liam took a deep breath and even had thoughts of giving up, no longer entangling with her, letting her leave with Lillian.

But when he thought of her smile at him, their playful moments, the thought of never seeing her again, he couldn’t bear it.

Moreover, Maya also had depression. What if she had an episode? What if Lillian found out about her illness and rejected her? He couldn’t bear to entrust such a Maya to anyone.

At the same time, Liam was furious, angry at Maya for leaving again.

But he mostly felt sadness in his heart, sadness that he could never reach her heart no matter what.

He originally thought that by keeping her by his side, he could make her accustomed to him, now he understood, she was more accustomed to liking Lillian, after all, she liked him for so many years, she felt only safe with him.

"Ha ha! Ha ha!" Thinking of this, Liam laughed coldly, he never imagined his feelings would be so humble, so insignificant, so unvalued.

He felt like a joke, even if he forcibly brought Maya back, how should he face her, face a woman who didn’t like him at all?

He couldn’t guarantee that after seeing Maya, he would remain as calm as he was now, and wouldn’t hurt her.

All of a sudden, Liam felt so tired, so tired that he didn’t want to face his emotions anymore, yet he had to move forward.

Half an hour later, he finally arrived at the airport, with Elijah Reed following behind, cautiously reporting, "BOSS, the plane has been flying for 40 minutes, but there is no information on President Morris and Miss Fifth, could it be that Miss Big made a mistake?"

Looking at Liam with a face like dead ash, Elijah was scared to death.

Even though Liam wasn’t angry, Elijah knew that the BOSS was the scariest when calm.

So he hoped that this was a misunderstanding, and that Miss Fifth hadn’t done something foolish, or else the BOSS wouldn’t let her go.

Listening to Elijah’s report, Liam coldly said, "Go to the monitoring room."

"Okay." After Elijah finished answering, he immediately went to the monitoring room.

Sure enough, he found Maya’s figure in the surveillance video, along with Lillian and Ella Turner, and immediately called Liam.

However, Liam didn’t take any action, he just said faintly, "I’m coming."

In the monitoring room, Elijah was stunned by Liam’s reaction, this was completely unlike his usual style. Why watch the surveillance? Shouldn’t he be giving orders to bring Miss Fifth back? Did the BOSS not want Miss Fifth? Was he planning to let her go to Lillian?

Elijah was confused and frantic, worried that if the two reached the next airport and changed identities again, they would truly be untraceable, and the BOSS might really miss Miss Fifth for a lifetime.

When Elijah was worrying frivolously, Liam arrived, and he immediately suggested, "BOSS, let me act first! I’m afraid if we delay, it will be too late."

"No need." Liam coldly dropped two words.

"BOSS, don’t you want Miss Fifth?"

Faced with Elijah’s questioning, Liam did not answer but only instructed the staff to play the surveillance.

The two stared intently at the surveillance footage. Elijah suddenly frowned and said, "BOSS, Miss Fifth doesn’t seem to be participating in the escape plan, she looks very surprised."

In the surveillance, Liam saw Ella push Maya into Elijah’s arms, and then Maya immediately turned around and walked towards the exit.

From Maya’s series of actions, it was clear she wasn’t aware beforehand, she was at the airport merely tricked by Ella, and she refused to leave with Lillian.

When Liam saw Maya shaking off Lillian’s hand, his desolate emotions finally began to improve, those messy thoughts gradually dispersed like the wind.

Maya didn’t participate in this plan, she was unaware; her promises to him weren’t premeditated lies.

But what made him sad was that in the end, she still didn’t stand firm and was taken away by Lillian.

Even though it appeared Maya wasn’t willing to leave, she still went. In her heart, he still couldn’t win over Lillian.

Liam didn’t know that after boarding the plane, Maya regretted it, and almost relapsed, nor did he know that she had firmly decided to return and stay by his side.

"BOSS, stop hesitating, if you keep hesitating, there will really be no chance." Looking at Liam dragging his feet, Elijah wished he could take matters into his own hands, and immediately retrieve Maya, but the woman wasn’t his wife; she was the BOSS’s wife.

"Why are you anxious?" Liam looked at Elijah’s anxious expression with indifference and rolled his eyes at him.

"I... I... I..." Elijah stammered for ages without reason, but he was just anxious for Liam’s sake.

He looked at Liam with countless grievances, thinking, could it be the BOSS was tired of Miss Fifth, so he didn’t bother chasing her? If that were so, why did he come to the airport, why watch the surveillance, wouldn’t it be easier to pretend nothing happened?

Liam looked at Elijah’s overly aggrieved expression, thinking he was acting daft.

After watching the surveillance, Liam coldly said, "Just sit tight and wait for the rabbit, there’s no need for such trouble."

Only then did Elijah realize, slapping his own head and saying, "Too nervous, not thinking straight, BOSS is really smart, I’ll go to the switchboard room right away."

Watching Elijah’s self-deprecation, Liam also left the surveillance room and headed to the VIP lounge.

Meanwhile, on the plane, Maya kept frowning as she stared out the window, wondering, what was Liam doing now? Did he realize she had left, was he angry?

Thinking of these, her brows furrowed more and more, and as Lillian saw this, she patted Maya’s overlapping hands in comfort, "Maya, as long as I’m here, there’s nothing to worry about."
