Chapitre 270: Enthusiastic reception

The thud startled Liam and the young woman and they both looked in her direction. She picked up the nearly empty cups and ditched them in the nearby bin and walked to them, trying not to let her rage show on her face.

"Your boyfriend? The one you want to seduce with lipstick?" She glared down at the woman who was a few inches shorter than her, making the latter want to shrink away.

She wanted to nod but Ximena's gaze scared her into spilling everything. "The truth is, I have loved him for years but…"

"You can stop loving him now. He is taken." She hooked an arm around Liam's. The young woman scurried away, making Liam burst into laughter.

She glared up at him. "Are you mad at me for sending away your little beauty?"

"Hell no." He wrapped his arm around her. "You look cute when you are jealous."

Cute? Her brows furrowed. That was not a word anyone would use to describe her, but most importantly, "Why the hell would I be jealous?"
