Chapter79 Moving out

Chapter79 Moving outHe got far more sober, seeing that Rita was excited.
He opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but he said nothing eventually.
She would not listen to him now.
After all, she was deeply hurt by what he had done.
And she would not forgive him easily.
He stood up and walked out the door. But he seemed to think of something, then he turned and looked
at Rita.
“Sorry, I was drunk just now.”
“I know.”
She smelt the alcohol when he came in.
And she knew why he apologized.
He was telling her not to take it seriously.
She knew it.
And she wouldn’t even if he didn’t say that.
She stopped imagining that he would love her after she had been dead once.
“But I’m serious about what I’ve said.”
He spoke when her mind wandered.Rita lifted her head in surprise and met his clear eyes.
He seemed to have sobered up.
Then why did he say that?
Thinking of something, she was annoyed and said in a cold voice, “Liam…”
“Don’t rush to give your answer. Just think about it carefully.”
She was about to refuse his request but he interrupted, “I’ll sleep in another room, you may sleep on
the bed tonight.”
Speaking, he closed the door for her gently.
Rita was shocked until the door was closed.
Gazing at the door, she kept frowning, with her eyes filled with mixed felling.
In the end, things had panned out in the way that she was unhappy to see.
Liam must be consumed with guilt after he knew he had misunderstood her all the time.
He said that possibly because he wanted to make amends for the past.
But a loveless marriage would finally fall apart.
Moreover, she did not love him anymore.
Rita breathed with a sigh and laid back on the bed.
It was meant to be a sleepless night for both of them.The next morning, there was a knock at the door and then someone came in, “Mrs. Wilson, get ready
for the breakfast. You…”
Mrs. Davis walked in, and she was shocked when she saw Rita was packing her stuff, “Mrs. Wilson,
why are you packing the bag? Where are you going?”
“Well, there are too many courses recently, so I want to live in school for some days.” She smiled and
explained, but she did not dare to meet Mrs. Davis’s eyes.
Mrs. Davis did not buy it.
There was nobody else, so Mrs. Davis took Rita’s hand and asked her worriedly, “Mrs. Wilson, did you
have a fight with Mr. Wilson last night?”
“Yeah.” Rita rolled her eyes and answered.
She knew Mrs. Davis must have guessed what happened when she saw Liam slept in another
bedroom. And she’d rather make Mrs. Davis thought what she guessed was true.
“Mrs. Wilson, quarrel is inevitable in the marriage. But you can’t run away from home every time when
you get angry with him.”
Seeing that Mrs. Davis assumed that she was the one who sulked, she pouted deliberately and said in
discontent, “Mrs. Davis, usually I am the one who make concession. But I won’t this time. He has to
apologize!”
Mrs. Davis was surprised at Rita acting as a spoiled child.
But then she laughed. Mrs. Wilson finally gained the upper hand, she thought.
That was nice.As one of Rita’s families, Mrs. Davis would definitely support her, “Right. Let him apologize to you. But
don't be so hard on him when he makes concession.”
“I know.”
Rita nodded but sniggered secretly.
Done!
Liam happened to hear what they had talked about when he passed by.
He paused a while and gave a wry smile.
There were too many courses?
She must be hiding from him.
“Mrs. Davis, you’ve made the breakfast, right? Let’s go down to the dining room.”
Hearing this, he stopped thinking and went downstairs ahead of them so that they wouldn’t be
embarrassed finding him eavesdropping.
Rita and Mrs. Davis came downstairs when he sat down and started to eat.
Trying to be cool, he had his breakfast slowly.
Rita and Liam sat at the table face to face. But they were quiet.
They seemed to alienate from each other after what had happened last night.
Assuming that he was about to finish his breakfast, Rita lifted his eyes and flicked a glance at him.
Seeing he was playing the phone, she broke the silence, “Liam, I got something to talk with you.”Liam paused for a while, but he didn’t raise his head, “What?”
“My tutor has got a new project. And I need to assist him. Sometimes we will have the discussion at
night. And it’s troublesome going back and forth, so I want to move to school for some time.”
“I see.”
I see?
What did he mean?
Staring at his handsome face, Rita blinked her eyes with puzzle, “Then I…”
“When?” He put down his phone suddenly and looked at her.
Rita was surprised and then replied right away, “Today.”
“OK, I’ll drive you to the school.” He said slowly. But Rita was surprised again.
He agreed!
She did not expect that.
But she calmed down soon.
It seemed that he was still sensible when he sobered up.
“No need. You may go on with your work. I will drive to school by myself.”
Liam frowned with disappointment which was hard to recognize.
He stood up impassively.“Mrs. Davis, take her luggage downstair.”
Rita was shocked.
Seeing Mrs. Davis took the phone, Rita was dumbfounded.
Hadn’t she said she would come to school by her own?
Didn’t he listen to her?
“Let’s go.” Rita felt her waist was encircled by someone, then she was enfolded in his arms.
Rita was pushed forward by Liam, with her eyes rounding.
“Liam, I can go by myself.”
He kept going as if he did not hear.
“Liam?”
Rita stopped frowning and breathed a sigh.
Never mind.
As long as she could leave.
Seeing that she stopped wriggling, Liam could not resist smiling.
When they walked across the courtyard, Jacob got off the car and approached, “Liam, there’s a
meeting this morning. Let’s go to the company together?”
A meeting?Her eyes sparkled, and then she disengaged herself from his arms, smiling, “I’ll go by myself if you’re
busy.”
She took her suitcase and then ran to her car quickly before he said something.
After Rita left, Liam glared at Jacob coldly.
Jacob was frightened.
novelbinDid he come in the wrong time?
Because Rita was moving out, Liam was in a sulk during the meeting.
Seeing that the boss was annoyed, all executives were sitting quietly in the meeting room.
They were afraid that Liam would vent his anger on them.
“Liam, here are the trainees recommended by W. University.” Jacob emboldened himself and gave the
docement to Liam.
Liam finally softened when Jacob mentioned W. University.
He skimmed through the list and got vexed, “That’s it?”
“There are twenty-six trainees. Isn’t that enough?”
“No.” Liam was serious.
“I’ll contact the university and add up to thirty-six trainees.”
Liam was vexed again hearing what Jacob had said and he glared at Jacob sharply.Jacob got strained instantly.
That was too much?
He was to speak, but Liam suddenly said, “Add another trainee in the list. As for the candidate, you
should think about it carefully.”
Jacob gave a shudder.
Liam was asking him to guess?
But why couldn’t he said it directly if he wanted to appoint someone?
Jacob thought, why was Liam so hard on him? He didn’t know what Liam was thinking at all!
He was spent.
“Is it too difficult to decide?”
Perhaps he was quiet for a long time, so Liam was apparently upset.
All the others in the meeting room were also unnerved.
They were all strained, worrying that the boss would ask them this question.
Being embarrassed, Jacob swallowed hard. And then he appeared to think of something, with his eyes
sparkling, “Rita Brown! The winner of this design competition.”
Liam was delighted immediately, “The Wilson Group must woo the talents like her in case they would
work for other companies. Then it will be the huge loss of our company.”
Jacob was speechless, with his mouth working.Liam’s words were full of pretentious nonsense, Jacob thought.
Woo the talents? He was afraid that his wife would leave him.
“Mr. Thompson, you handle this.” Liam stopped frowning and looked at Jacob, “I want to see her three
days later.”
Hearing this, Jacob twitched his lips again.
See her three days later?
Why didn’t he say he want to see her this afternoon?
“What’s wrong? Is that difficult for you?” Sitting on his chair, Liam glanced at Jacob and raised his
eyebrows.
Jacob stopped complaining in his mind and nodded his head, “No, it’s not.”
He did not dare to say it even if it was difficult.
“Well, then I want Rita to report for duty this afternoon.” Liam said slowly, with a smile lifting the corner
of his mouth.
Darn it!
What shitty things he had said! Jacob even wanted to slap himself for his improper remark in the
beginning.
“Alright, that’s it.”
Liam stood up and left the meeting room.After he left, others relaxed right away and wiped the sweat from their forehead.
And then, they looked at Jacob sympathetically.
Jacob covered his forehead with his hand and then caught up with Liam.
“Liam, there are only three hours left. You ask me to go to the college and find Rita, but what if she
doesn’t agree to work in the company?”
“That’s your problem.” He had to see her this afternoon.
“You’re being unreasonable!”
“You helped her to get rid of me this morning, so you should get her back this afternoon.” Liam thought
it was reasonable.
Jacob was shocked and then he felt his stomach was in knots.
He thought he needed to call the ambulance.
