Chapter 175 - DV Gem Asia Branch Launching (Seven)

"VINCENT MEETING LIAM"

* * *

Pitt is prepared to counter Liam's statement, but Liam's attention was on Hailey.

"Why is she crying?"

Pitt followed Liam's gaze. And the guy is correct. The Princess is crying. Liam made a step toward the stairs, but Pitt held his arm.

"Don't you dare take another step, Liam! I mean it." Pitt throws a warning look at him while he contacts Bruce through the earpiece on his left ear. "Bruce, what is going on there? Why did the princess cry?"

"Ah. About that, Captain Pitt, I mean Mr. Pitt… Boss Vincent is proposing to the Princess." Bruce whispers. He took a few steps away from Crissa. "Said boss soon gets his divorce, and so, he's planning to give the princess a grand wedding."

"Getting married soon? What the…" Pitt stops talking after Liam shakes off his hand and marches toward the door. He followed him. And this time, he gripped his elbow tightly, giving the guy meaningful stares.

"Take your hand off me, Pitterson." Liam hissed.

"Don't you dare to ruin the Princess' happiest moment, Liam... Otherwise…"

"Otherwise, what? Do you think you can stop me?" he snapped.

Pitt shrunk his brown pupils, staring at Liam with intent, then returned with a threatening tone, "I will stop you by all means. Whatever you plan to do, Liam, you can't force the Princess to love you. For what you are doing, you are pushing her even farther away. Don't you see it?"

"I'm not interested to see it. What only interests me is to see every man's head cut off from their neck." Liam hissed at Pitt. Gritting his teeth, he clenched his jaw upon saying it. His eyes were full of hatred that, at this very moment, he is determined to kill someone. And he doesn't care who it is.

"You are a sicko, Liam! Don't you dare to make the Princess miserable again, or else, your head will be the one to cut off from your neck!"

"Ahem!"

In the middle of their heated quarrel, someone coughs. Both Liam and Pitt turned their head to the man now standing behind them. It was Bruce, making a meaningful stare at them.

Soon, they noticed that Hailey and her boyfriend were walking in their direction. Good thing that Bruce is brilliant. He immediately rushed to the door to warm the two men fighting in front of the door.

And if ever Liam would do anything, he is ready to protect his other boss.

From what he understood from Pitt's exchange with the guy, he intends to kill Vincent Shen. Then, by all means, he'll protect the man she loves. Once something happens to him, the princess would be sad. In just a few weeks that he is serving the princess, she is outspoken about her love for Vincent Shen. And he also witnesses how the guy showed his love for her. Both are in love with each other. However…

"Bruce, I am now at war with Liam. Even though he won't harm me physically, he won't think twice about killing Vince in front of me. So on an occasion that the three of us meet somewhere, please choose to protect Vince. You said before, Bruce. You will catch a bullet for me. Then, please do so for Vince."

The princess begs him.

"I can't lose him."

And the princess almost cried saying that.

He understands now. Liam Huo was once the Princess knight. But his behavior is what the princess hated about him.

Liam Huo falls in love with the princess, and he couldn't accept that the princess cannot return his feelings. But then, Liam Huo is harming all the men that persuade the princess's love.

A love that he could never have; others should not have it as well. So his issue is jealousy? Or is he just obsessed with the princess? But in his perspective, it was both.

"They're coming. On standby, Bruce." Pitt forewarned the guy, his gaze remained on Liam.

"Pitterson Cha!" He yelled at the guy, but Pitt only tightened his grip on his arm.

Hailey and Vince are now stepping out of the door. The latter was curiously looking in their direction. His forehead creased from curiosity while his eyes were shifting from Liam and then toward Pitt.

This moment is suspicious for Vincent Shen. Two handsome men are arguing like lovers outside the lobby, just across from the parking lot. Pitt quickly makes a move not to show an obvious scene. He pursed his lips, then smiled.

"Good evening, President Shen! My name is Pitterson Cha." He introduced himself, extending his right hand. "I am pleased to see you out. In fact, I am looking forward to meeting you."

"Pitterson Cha…" Vincent fell silent for a moment, and his face brightened after he remembered. "Right! You are Mr. Cole's business partner. You are our newest business partner. Thank you for investing in our company."

"Don't mention about it, Mr. Shen. Anyway, if you haven't known yet. I recently purchased a unit in your penthouse."

"Hm... I see. The manager emails me about my new tenant. It's nice to meet you, Mr. Cha. Even though this is not the best time, as part of the MGC Board of Directors, I welcome you and look forward to a great partnership."

"It is a great investment, and so I am hanging around, Mr. Shen."

"Good to know, Mr. Cha." Vincent's gaze shifted to the man next to Pitt. Liam smiled at him and extended his hand for a handshake.

"Liam Huo, Mr. Shen. I heard a lot about you."

Vincent is about to raise his hand, but Hailey holds tight on his arm. He turned to her, and he saw a flirty smile across her lips, the same as her voice.

"Honey, we have to go. I don't want to make your mom wait that long."

"Hmm… Right. Mom hates tardiness." Vince chuckled, unaware of the fact that Liam flashes a dangerous glare at him.

If only Hailey could shoot Liam a dagger look, but Vince is looking at her tenderly.

"Hm... Let's go then." Vince declared, which he didn't know how she sighs with relief in secret.

But Vince remembers that he and Liam were having a quick chat. He partly turned his head in Liam's direction and gave the guy a faint smile.

"I hope it was good gossip, Mr. Huo." Vince meets Liam's gaze, and he doesn't like when Liam frequently glancing at Hailey.

There are two reasons why men are looking at Hailey. First, her charm seduces any man, and second, they want to believe the rumors that she is only a paid woman he kept on his side.

But...

There is this third reason a man would keep staring at her in his presence.

They have a plan to steal his woman.

'The hell I would allow that!'
