Chapter 52.
Aurora looked up and watched him clutching the window tightly, heaving.
"Why did you do that? I took you as my friend. I considered you as my friend."
Liam, who was trying to calm his anger, raged hearing her words. He sprinted towards her and grabbed
her jaw. Aurora gasped, and jumped at the violence.
"Friends? I am not your bloody friend Mrs Knight. I am your husband. You are mine. Do you understand
me? Mine!"
Aurora searched his eyes. All she could see in them was violence and anger. At this moment she hated
being in his presence. She wanted to get away from him as soon as possible.
Aurora jerked his hand away. She might be scared of him but she tried to be brave in front of him.
"Do you understand me or not?" He yelled again but this time Aurora didn't flinch in fear. No, on the
contrary, she simply looked in his eyes.
She faced the darkness head-on. It was not the first time she was seeing this, she had seen it before in
him. But she thought everything changed between them. She genuinely accepted him as her friend but
he was not worth it.
Liam Knight didn't deserve her friendship. So she simply asked him the question which would take her
away from him and his insufferable presence.
"Please call someone and ask them to rescue us from here."
Liam shrienked his eyes and he searched her face. There was a little heaviness in her voice and he
understood that she was trying to control her emotions.
"I made a bet with you darling, of course, we will leave this island soon. But till then, I will grant you
some perks. After all, my would-be wife deserves to shower and sleep in a soft bed."
Aurora kept quiet. He didn't deserve her words. The man was despicable and she would not waste her
words, thoughts or time on him anymore.
Not even a single second of her time.
"You may stand up and use the shower, Mrs Knight," he ordered, leaving her face with a jerk and
standing up.
Aurora took a long shaking breath to keep the tears at bay. She stood up with her shaking legs. "Where
is the bathroom?" She asked, her voice void of any emotions towards him.
He turned around, raised his brow. "Over there," he told her, pointing at the door behind him. She
nodded and walked to the door. Opened it and closed it without even uttering a single word.
Something shifted in her composure; he could sense it. But he let it go, no he was not in the right
mindset right now to question her and he didn't want to hurt Aurora.
No, it was not his plan. If only it had been as easy as hurting someone. He would have done that easily
but the girl in front of her was going to be his wife. She was going to represent him in public whenever
he wanted her to do so.
If only someone could see the grand plans he had for the future. They were far beyond anyone's
imagination. She was his trump card.
"Fuck!" Liam raked his hands in his hair and sighed. He had no time to waste anymore so he simply
picked his phone, went to the other room and contacted his father.
Ryan Knight who was yelling at his man for not being able to find a single trace about his son and This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Aurora glanced at his phone. He frowned seeing an unrecognised number on the display but his sixth
sense told him that the call belonged to his twisted son.
He raised his eyes, ordered his men to get out of his office and accepted the call.
"Liam…"
Liam on the other end smirked. His old man always recognises him. "How are you doing dad?" Liam
asked his father.
"You son of a bitch! Liam only chuckled hearing his father.
"Stop laughing, don't forget that I am still your boss! Where are you, Liam?" Ryan Knight was enraged
when he heard his son chuckle over the other end. Here, he was trying to calm Ethan from starting a
war with him and his son, the reason for all that drama was laughing over.
That was something Ryan Knight couldn't handle.
At that time, Liam sighed. "Is your friend able to see the reason now dad? Or won't he still agree to our
alliance? If he needs more motivation I would gladly give it to him."
Ryan gritted his jaw in irritation. "You planned all this to scare him, Liam? Do you have any idea what
he would do if he came to know about you being behind his daughter's disappearance instead of those
Mexicans? He will declare an open war with us. Friendship be damned!"
Liam's eyes turned hard at that. "I value your friendship with him, that's why I only tried to scare him.
The respect I feel for him stopped me from keeping his daughter with me and not giving a damn about
what she feels. She is safe, I kept her alive and safe. And he won't doubt us, he will think about
Mexicans only. Let him kill some of them, what does it matter to us!"
Ryan closed his eyes and sighed deeply.
"Come back soon. Please."
"I am coming back tomorrow, dad but I want you to meet Ethan and talk to him about anything."
Ryan was losing his patience with his son's riddles. "You want him to offer the alliance this time, son?"
A small smile came to his lips. "He declined when we offered. I think you should return the favour this
time."
"You want me to decline?"
"No. You will accept his offer but make sure he knows once he accepts the alliance, my word will be the
rule for his daughter," Liam told his father and ended the call.
