CHAPTER 366: CHAPTER 364 IT’S MY FAULT [4 MORE UPDATES]

Liam listened to the girl’s request, lowered his head, looked directly into her eyes, and wiped the tears from her face, saying, "Okay!"

Actually, the kiss he placed on her forehead just now meant he had already forgiven her.

But Maya didn’t know that a kiss on the forehead signifies forgiveness.

What surprised her even more was that Liam was particularly agreeable today, even agreeing to delay settling the accounts for two days.

Maya looked at the man’s tenderness, blinked her big eyes, and still tugged at his collar, saying, "Thank you!"

The man listened to her thanks, took a deep breath, a knowing smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, wiped her tears with both hands, and said nothing.

It was only until Maya’s tears were no longer like large drops that he placed his right hand on the back of her neck, leading her to take the elevator down to the parking lot.

In the car, Maya’s emotions gradually calmed down. She wasn’t crying anymore, but her gaze remained vacant, not fully recovered from the previous incident.

In the driver’s seat, Liam drove with an expressionless face, occasionally turning to look at Maya, his expression unchanged.

In the passenger seat, Maya looked at the man’s cold eyes and indifferent expression, feeling uncertain. She didn’t know what Liam was thinking, or how he would deal with Lillian.

Although both she and Lillian were wrong about this matter, she really didn’t want to see the two companies fight and didn’t want to see Lillian lose everything.

She never thought about being with Lillian, nor did she want the Morris Family to suffer any loss because of her.

After sneaking glances at Liam several times, Maya finally gathered the courage to carefully explain to him, "Liam, this is my fault, it was my bad idea."

Clearly, she wanted to take the main responsibility for this issue, hoping Liam would vent his anger on her and not make things difficult for the Morris Family.

However, Liam saw through her little plan immediately.

He took a deep breath and calmly asked, "Didn’t I just say to give you two days?"

"..." Maya was left speechless by Liam’s words.

She admitted she was being a bit greedy, seeing Liam not angry and couldn’t wait to get a promise, a promise that he would let the Morris Family off the hook.

"Well, it was all my fault, I shouldn’t have given Lillian hope."

Actually, Maya had already stated her position to Lillian a few days ago at the hotel, but Lillian couldn’t trust her, which led him to act on his own and take her away.

Liam listened to Maya’s bias towards Lillian, even though it was hard for him inside, he didn’t expose Maya’s lies or tell her he knew the truth.

"I was wrong." Maya apologized again when Liam ignored her.

Maya apologized repeatedly, and Liam felt uncomfortable. Moreover, the image of her crying for Lillian lingered in his mind, perhaps for the rest of his life. Unless the day came when Maya wholeheartedly loved him, he might forget about the affection she showed Lillian.

When he turned to look at Maya, and saw she hesitated several times, he suddenly raised his right hand, grabbed her by the back of the neck, pulled her into his arms, and then kissed her lips without hesitation.

The moment Maya was kissed, she was so startled that her body trembled, but she didn’t push Liam away, just gently closed her eyes, letting him kiss her.

If her kiss could lessen his anger, she was happy to be kissed.

As Liam kissed her deeply, Maya immediately opened her eyes, raised her right hand, and held the steering wheel for him to prevent any traffic accident.

A moment later, Liam reluctantly released Maya.

At this time, Maya didn’t bring up the airport incident again because she could see that Liam didn’t want to discuss it. Given that, she decided to temporarily set it aside and wait a couple of days when his mood improved to talk about this matter.

Maya knew that what she was doing was quite inappropriate, but she was really tired and just wanted to quietly stay by Liam’s side, not wanting to cause any more trouble, and hoped Lillian and the Morris Family would no longer make her feel guilty.

When the two returned to the villa, it was already half past three in the afternoon.

In the living room, Aunt Smith watched Liam with an expressionless face and Maya with reddened eyes, her heart tightened, she clenched the apron with her hands and cautiously asked, "Young Master, Miss, have you had lunch yet? I’ll have the kitchen prepare it for you."

Listening to Aunt Smith’s question, Liam slowly turned around and directed, "Prepare something for Maya to eat, a little bit light, and some of her favorite snacks."

"Mm-hmm! I’ll go right away." Aunt Smith relaxed upon hearing Liam’s instructions, thinking, as long as the Young Master isn’t angry, things will be fine, so she immediately instructed the kitchen to prepare food.

On the side, Maya listened to Liam’s instructions to Aunt Smith, and for a moment, she couldn’t understand how she felt. She thought she was done for this time, but didn’t expect Liam to be so gentle.

Facing Liam’s kindness, Maya felt guilty. Her mind quickly flashed through their interactions over the days, through Liam’s care for her.

Recently, she vaguely noticed that Liam liked her.

After this incident, Maya became more certain that this man truly liked her. He didn’t dare treat her badly, fearing she would leave with Lillian, but only because of pride, he didn’t confess.

When she thought of Liam’s non-angry expression at the airport, she choked up, feeling inexplicably pained.

She really wanted to say sorry to him, she even felt relieved for making the wise choice not to leave with Lillian, otherwise, she couldn’t imagine how Liam would be now.

Although Maya secretly liked Lillian and was moved by his confession, she never thought about abandoning Liam to leave with Lillian, even when on the plane, she was still worrying about Liam.

She worried about Liam’s retaliation, more worried he couldn’t bear the blow.

Her feelings for Lillian, beyond the inner excitement, were more sourced from guilt, because her slight excitement caused so much trouble for the Morris Family, she couldn’t get over it.

She watched Liam’s solitary figure walking towards the second floor, immediately chased after him, and carefully reached out to hold his hand as she walked behind him.

The girl’s initiative made Liam’s heart slightly touch, his fingertips felt like they received an electric shock, causing his body to tremble slightly as well.

Feeling the cold temperature of her small hand, he stopped and looked at her. He saw the girl blinking her big eyes, pouting a little mouth, looking at him pitifully, seemingly begging for his forgiveness.

This obedient Maya made Liam have no temper at all, even causing him to temporarily forget about the airport incident, tightly holding her small hand and heading upstairs.

In the bedroom, he picked out a set of casual clothes from the closet and threw them on the bed, calmly saying, "Take a shower, change clothes, sleep for a while, and get up for dinner."

"Mm!" Maya listened to the man’s instructions, nodded, and went into the bathroom with the clothes.
