True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz)
Chapter 1621

Liam had given his heart to Maria. When he thought of everything she had done for him, he felt so touched. He was so touched by her actions that he did not know how he could repay her. If Liam let Maria down, it would be the biggest mistake of his life. Liam thought to himself.

In life, the most fearsome thing was when one was so greedy that they did not know what they truly wanted.

"Don't be stubborn. I never liked you. We were classmates, and that's all well ever be," Liam said. "There's a girl that I like. She's a wonderful and righteous girl."

Shocked, Teresa choked out, "Liam, are you saying that I'm tainted?"

Liam did not want to hurt her. However, at that moment, he knew that she could only wake up from her fantasies by being hurt by the truth.

"That's right. You're so tainted that you make me utterly speechless," he said ruthlessly. His voice was as cold as ice, and Teresa felt a chill in her heart. With that, Liam turned around and left.

Left alone in the room, Teresa felt an overwhelming sadness crash over her, and she cried for a long time.

It did not take long for Liam to drive back.

He felt like he needed to go back at once to be with Maria. He wanted to hug her and tell her how much he loved her.

With a heart full of longing, distress, and pity, Liam opened the door to his apartment.

The first thing he saw was Maria watching the robot vacuum do its job. She stood with her hands on her hips, which made her look like an inspector.

The robot vacuum played music as it went about its business, creating an atmosphere that was cheerful and upbeat.

Maria looked up and she saw Liam. When their eyes met, her face broke into a smile. "Why are you back so soon?" Liam walked up to her quickly and embraced her. Then, he lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.

His actions were extremely fast and passionate.

Maria was momentarily taken aback. She looked at Liam in a daze, not knowing what she should do.

She tilted her head slightly, then waited for the right opportunity to ask, "What's wrong?"

Sightly breathless, Liam murmured, "I missed you."

"It has only been a few hours," Maria teased with a smile.

Liam looked at Maria with a warm gaze. He felt that he should not hide what had happened earlier from her.

Although Mr. Lowe told him not to tell Maria about it yet, Liam felt that he should be frank. Sooner or later, everyone would replace out that he had brought Maria back from England.

And when that happened, it would affect everyone's impression of him.

After pondering for a moment, he finally said, "I met your parents and Aunt Smith today."

"What? You met them? Did they talk to you?" Maria immediately got nervous. "Did they replace out about anything?"

"They don't know that you're back," Liam assured her. "But, Maria, a lot of things happened today.

We need to talk right now."

"All right. Let's talk." Maria could tell that Liam was being very serious, so she looked at him seriously

too. "I'm listening."

The two of them sat down on the sofa, then Liam told her about everything that had happened.

Maria was not surprised by Zachary's persistence to help. However, she was furious about Betty wanting to take advantage of him.

"Madam Cruise is too much. She's old enough to be my grandmother already, yet she still wants to take advantage of you. Who does she think she is?"

Seeing how angry Maria was, Liam replied, "That woman is really too shameless."

Maria looked at him. Her eyes were a little red. "For real, though. How could she be so shameless?"

"There, there. Don't be angry," Liam said soothingly. "She's free to think whatever she wants. What's important is my attitude."

Maria nodded. "Even though you're right, I still can't believe that they bullied you. I finally understand why my dad made a move. He probably couldn't stand it anymore." "Don't you blame your father?" Liam asked.

"No way. I'd blame him if he didn't help," Maria replied. "Oh, now that you know about my secret, I don't have anything to hide it from you anymore. I'm serious about wanting to be your manager after I graduate. Would you like that?" "Silly girl, you can do whatever you want," Liam said, gently ruffling her hair. "But now, we need to go back to your house. We can't keep it from your parents anymore." "What?" Maria shook her head immediately. "No, no way. If I go home, my parents will definitely lock me up. After that, they'll probably send me back to England soon."

"But even if we hide this from them, they'll replace out sooner or later. At that time, your father will blame me." Liam gave Maria a pitiful look. "Do you want me to leave a bad impression on my future father-in-law?'

Maria blushed at the words "future father-in-law".

She looked at Liam with embarrassment. She wanted to say that she could not go back, but upon seeing how serious he was about it, she thought that perhaps it really was for the best.

Maria thought for a moment and nodded. "Okay, let's go home. I know that you want to give my parents a good impression. But that means I can't be with you tonight."

At that, Liam felt reluctant to part from her.

Pulling her into his arms, he whispered in her ear, "Let's go back later. Your parents have probably just returned home. I think they may need a rest."

Maria was amused when she heard that.

Liam was just coming up with an excuse to make it convenient for himself. Maria thought to herself.

Then, he picked Maria up and walked into the bedroom.

Maria leaned her head against his shoulder. Suddenly, she realized that she could smell an unfamiliar scent on his body, and it was quite a strange scent.

Confused, Maria asked, "Why do you smell so good?"

Liam was taken aback. "Do I?"

Maria carefully sniffed the scent. "Something's not right. You smell strange. Put me down first."

After he put her down in the bedroom, Maria stood still, then circled him. Suddenly, she saw a lipstick mark on his back. She leaned forward to smell it. The scent was stronger on his back. Maria stood still and looked at him. "Take off your coat and let me have a look."

Liam was startled. He took off his jacket and glanced at it. When he saw the red lipstick mark, he froze.

Maria pouted and said, "Madam Cruise is too shameless. She actually kissed your back. What a nuisance." Liam pursed his lips awkwardly and said, "No, this was Teresa's doing."

Maria was shocked. "Wait a minute. You didn't say anything about Teresa just now. What's going on?"

Liam began to take off his clothes as he said, "Let me take a shower first. I'll tell you about it when I'm done."

"Okay. Make sure you're as clean as a whistle. Don't get close to me when you smell of other women." Maria did not bother to hide the fact that she was bothered by it.

Liam nodded. "Don't worry. I'm yours and yours alone."

His words cheered her up at once. She nodded and replied, "Of course. You can only be mine."

After taking a shower, Liam wrapped himself in a bath towel and dried his hair. He looked at Maria and said, "Teresa confessed to me out of the blue today. I refused her. She didn't want to give up, so she hugged me and cried. That was probably the reason for the smell."

"Didn't you push her away?" Maria was confused and upset when she heard what happened, but she trusted Liam. She was just worried that such women would come at him in droves in the future.

"I did. And she fell," Liam said. "I even told her that there's a girl I like, but I didn't say that it was you. I don't want anyone to know about your identity for the time being."

"Then, she may not believe it," Maria answered. "She would think that you made up an excuse to refuse her."

"That's her business. I don't want to be involved." Liam dried his hair quickly and walked towards Maria.

She immediately got nervous. "That's it?"

"What do you mean by that?" Liam sat down and looked at her with a faint smile.

"Have you finished explaining?"

"What else do I have to say?" Liam retorted. "Let's not waste our time on the people that have nothing to do with us. Now, you just have to look at me."

Maria looked away and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"Look at me and see just how much I love you," he answered with an evil smile.

Maria immediately pushed him away, but he held her tightly in his arms.

They spent a warm and loving time together.

It was already starting to get dark when they came out of the bedroom.

And when Liam brought Maria back to the Lowe family's home, it was already past dinner time.

That was because they had dinner before going to the Lowe family's home.
