LIAM’S POV
I grabbed on to the steering, my hands shaking continuously, I was panicking!.
I packed the car outside and rushed into the house, just enough to see Janice about to leave for work.
“Hey sweetheart” I waved at her. She took her gaze to me and a deep frown formed thereafter.
“Ohh.. who do we have here?. The one who finally remembers he has a wife” She mocked and I couldn’t help but chuckle.
At least she was saved. “I’m sorry Janny, I had to sort out things…”
“With my dad…he needed me for something very important…a top secret mission…blah blah blah. Don’t you ever get tired of the same line?” She rolled her eyes.
“I would if it were lies” She gave me a deep frown in return and quickly threw my hands in the air.
“Ok, I’m sorry, It’s my fault. Don’t worry Mi Amor, I will tell dad to let me off the hook for now, so I can spend some quality time with my sunshine” I gave her a peck on her cheek and she blushed hard.
“Ok” She rolled her eyes again, trying to cover up her blush. “If you had excuse me, I need to get to work” She walked passed me, pulling her car door open.
I slammed the door shut immediately, before she could get in. She looked up to me with an angry look and I quickly gave her a nervous chuckle.
“Care to explain whatcha doing?” She said in her french accent, I loved so much. “Being romantic”.
She furrowed her brows at me.”By slamming my car door shut when I was about getting in?”.
“No Mi Amor” I slowly led her to my car and opened the front sit. “By driving you to work myself” I flashed her a cute smile.
“And why should I agree to that. You still owe me a sincere apology for leaving me for weeks and also for not picking my call for five days, not to talk about the fact that you’ve refused to go see my father, I mean…”
“I’ll apologize properly, I promise. But don’t you think you should get to work now?” I changed the topic. “Right” She quickly got into the car. At least that worked.
I just love our relationship, she’s the one who call the shorts here. I really don’t mind that because I love her with every last breathe in my system.
I turned on the engines and hit the street seconds later.
“Take this turn” She directed, pointing to her left. “That’s not the way to the company you work” I pointed out.
“Yea. I have to sign a business deal for the company at California street, TYE Hotel, so I’m going there”.
I suddenly stepped on the breaks, the car came to an abrupt stop, and flung Janice sideways.
She turned to me with her hair scattered and all over her face, furious. “What’s up with you!”.
“I don’t care what you are going to be thinking Janice but know that you are not going to California street and you are not signing that contract” I said protectively.
“And who said you could dictate my life for me now?. I would do whatever I want to do” She gave me a very serious look.
“You won’t today. You aren’t going there, simple”.
“Give me a good reason why I shouldn’t?!” She yelled at my face.
I suddenly lost it and banged my hand on the steering and she flinched. I couldn’t tell her about my dad, never!.
“Because I’m your husband, I don’t want you going that way and that’s final!” I yelled back.
She suddenly went mute and then I saw tears in her eyes. “You raised your voice at me Liam” It was then it hit me, I just raised my voice at her, I’d never done that before and seeing her this way just makes me feel so guilty.
I tried holding her hand but she slapped it off. “Leave me alone Liam…Just drop me off anywhere, I don’t want to see your fa…” A bullet was suddenly fired toward us and I flinched.
Janice turned her gaze backwards, I guess she saw the shooter because she turned back at me. “Did you get into the bad books of anyone?” I nodded negatively immediately.
She wipped her tears off, stood up from the car, and then gently sat on my thigh, positioning herself between my legs. Almost immediately I became completely arouse. I hated it when her gangster mode is activated and I still do.
“Brace yourself lollipop” She grabbed hold of the steering and brought the engine to life, with that she drove out of there like crazy, swaying sideways almost all the time, so she could dodge the bullet that were being shot at us.
“Dammit!” She cursed banging her hand on the steering. “What wrong?” I tried hiding how scared I was.
“We are low on fuel and we’ve got three cars right on our tail!” She yelled out swaying the car sideways again.
I turned backwards to see three cars chasing us and my blood ran cold. Oh no, we are screwed!.
In order to get rid of Janice dad wouldn’t think twice before ending me alongside her, especially after what I did to him.
Janice swayed sideways again, but this time we almost turned over. I grabbed on to her with every last strength in me, I was super scared now.
“They freaking bursted two of our tyres already!” She yelled making a 360 and then she drove into another lane.
I turned backwards to see the three cars far behind us now, they were also trying to make a U-turn.
“Drive faster before they catch up to us!” I ordered acting on my reflex action. “Would you like to take the wheels?” She growled at me and I quickly shut my mouth.
Another gun shot went off and we swayed sideways again. “Shit, they bursted another tyre!. We’ve only got one left!”.
“Oh no!.. Not now!” Janice banged the steering again. I took my gaze forward and I could feel my spirit leaving my body.
Right in front, was a cliff, which was just two minute ride away from us.
This is how it’s going to end?. My breathe hinged and it felt as if I’d lose consciousness any time soon.
