Amelia and Liam got ready for the party, Amelia came down wearing the red dress the girls had suggested for her to wear with black heels.
Liam jaw dropped when he saw her, she was looking so beautiful that he couldn’t control himself from drooling over her as she walked towards him.
“Can you close your mouth”Amelia rolled her eyes playfully at him.
“I’m sorry, the mouth was too busy drilling over an angel” Liam compliments, giving her a quick wink.
“Okay let’s go already” Amelia whines cause she knows he can later decide for them not to go anywhere and just take them together.
“Do we really have to go?” Liam whines hoping she will ask them to stay in doors instead.
“Yes we do, Laila just sent me a message that they were already there”Amelia announced, checking her phone real quick before looking at him.
“But Teddy, I just want to stay home with you and rip that dress off your body”Liam confessed, His confession made Amelia gasp as she didn’t expect him to say that, well she knows he was a pervert but still didn’t expect.
“Can you stop being a pervert for one second?” Amelia scoffs, fixing her hair properly.
“One” Liam blurted out , Amelia stared at him like he was one maniac.
“I wanna go to the party” Amelia tells him, earning a groan from him.
“Fine let’s go to the party, but I promise you teddy you gonna regret and wish you had just stayed up with me instead”Liam remarks before opening the door, he leaves the house leaving Amelia standing to think.
“Could he be right?” Amelia mutters now skeptical on going to the party, she was about to call him back when her phone rang.
“Hello Laila, yea I’m almost on my way”Amelia tells Laila on the phone before leaving the house and locking the door behind her.
Claudia was at the party with the rest of them, she was offered a drink by Xavier. She gave him a warm smile before collecting it.
“Where is she?”Claudia eyes search the party for Amelia, Amelia had to be here in order for her to execute her plan.
“Hmm, is Amelia coming?”Claudia asked Xavier.
“Oh yes , she will be here soon Laila just called her”Xavier tells her sipping from his glass of wine.
“Oh okay”Claudia nodded before leaving the hall.
“Oh Elliot is here”Mike announced , they all turned to see Elliot approaching their way he was wearing a red tuxedo.
“You look hot”Laila compliments, Mike glares at her making Elliot chuckle lightly.
“Thanks, does anyone know where Liam is?”Elliot asked as his eyes scanned the room for him.
“Well the boss and Amelia have not yet arrived”Nina tells him, He nodded slightly before grabbing a drink from one of the waiter trays.
“So do you want to dance Elliot?”Laila asked, Mike coughs out loud making everyone look at him weirdly.
“What’s wrong mike?”Miss Cynthia chuckles, noticing his uncomfortable state.
“Nah I’m not in the mood for dancing, please excuse me”Elliot excused himself from them, turning down Laila’s offer to dance.
“Ha!”Mike laughed out loud, Laila shot him a dead glare before stomping out with Nina following her from behind.
“Dude, are you sure you don’t have a thing for Laila?”Xavier questions Mike, giving him the suspicious look.
“He does,”Miss Cynthia confirmed his doubts.
“No I don’t , she is so annoying I don’t like her”Mike nervously uttered.
“Sure”Miss Cynthia and Xavier agreed in unison, they both glanced at each other before laughing.
“What’s funny?”Mike glares at them as they continue laughing.
The drive was so awkward as silence settled around them in the car. Liam was driving to the event, his eyes were focused on the road without even paying a glance at Amelia or any other thing.
“This is so boring,”Amelia complains, yawning a little.
“What’s so boring?” Liam asked, glancing at her before turning his gaze to the road.
“Well for starters, we have been driving for hours and you still haven’t said anything to me” Amelia pointed out crossing her arms together.
“Well what do you want me to say?” Liam chuckles driving faster.
“I don’t know, just something to kill the boredom”Amelia mutters, not feeling too good.
“How about this?” Liam hand trailed from her lap to her hips massaging it a little.
“Stop touching me you pervert” Amelia warns, pushing his hand off her leg.
Liam matched the breaks stopping the car. He turned to look at her, her gaze was already on him wondering why he had stopped the car in the middle of nowhere.
“Why did you stop?” Amelia questions as her eyes scans her surroundings nervously.
“I want you to know that I love you no matter what happens”Liam’s sudden words made her glare at him.
“So you stopped the car just for this?!” Amelia scoffs in disbelief, She couldn’t believe he stopped the car just for him to tell her he loves her.
“I’m serious teddy I love you so much”Liam’s eyes were showing how serious and how deeply in love he was with her.
“Oh okay, can we go now?”Amelia begs, hoping he will start the car and drive.
“You didn’t even say it back”Liam scoffs before starting the car again and driving off to the party.
The party had already begun , as everyone had a glass of wine in their hand. Elliot was at the bar drinking wine when a lady sat beside him.
“Hello, I’m Terra and you are?”She greets, stretching her hand out for him.
He turns over to see a lady smiling at him with her hand stretched out. Elliot ignores her hand and continues drinking, she felt a bit embarrassed and pulled her hand back in.
“I’m Elliot”Elliot uttered, chunking down his glass of wine, He poured some more in his empty glass before gulping in.
“Easy with the drink, you don’t want to get drunk”She tells him with a little smirk on her face.
“Believe me I’m not the one to get drunk easily”Elliot tells her before standing up.
“Where are you going?”Terra asked, a bit curious about where he was going too.
“I’m going to a room, wanna tag along?”Elliot gave her a quick wink.
“Yes please”She eagerly agrees before holding onto his arms as they both walk out of the hall.
“Who is that bitch with Elliot?”Laila scoffs in disbelief. She watched how the two of them were talking and laughing while leaving the hall.
“Maybe his girlfriend,”Nina concluded, sipping from her glass of wine.
“His girlfriend!”Laila yelled. Some people turned to look at her wondering if she was insane.
Laila bowed down nervously while laughing, Signalling that everything was okay. She pulled Nina to her, Nina Yelp by Laila suddenly pulled as she tried not to spill her drink.
“What’s wrong?”Nina questioned why she pulled her.
“Tell me everything you know about Elliot girlfriend”Laila demanded, Nina stared at her confused.
“But I don’t know anything about the girl,”Nina mutters, earning a groan from Laila.
“Ahh fine i will find out by myself”Laila groans pushing Nina away gently.
“I want to tell you something”Mike tells Laila who was approaching his direction.
“Move”She uses her hand to push him out of the way, He watches as she leaves without even bothering to know what he wanted to say.
“What’s wrong with her?”Mike asked Nina who was there.
“She is just mad about Elliot having a girlfriend,”Nina innocently stated.
“Elliot as a girlfriend!”Mike loudly asked as he was shocked.
“Yeah”Nina concluded before leaving.
“Wow nice”Mike chuckles before going to look for Laila.
Elliot stopped in front of a room, He turned to look at terra who was standing behind him with a smile on her face.
“You are Andrew’s secretary right?”Elliot questioned her, watching her reaction carefully.
“Yes, is there any problem?”She asked, wondering if anything was wrong.
“No not really”Elliot chuckles, She nodded .
“By any chance, do you know the reason why he invited Liam Scott to his party?”Elliot’s curiosity kicked in.
“I don’t know, I’m just as surprised as you cause I know my boss hates Liam Scott”Terra blurted out.
“What do you mean by hate?”Elliot asked.
“Well you know they are business rivals, And since Mr Scott is doing better than sir Andrew I guess maybe that’s why he hates him”Terra explained as Elliot listened carefully.
“So you are saying there is a motive behind inviting Liam here today”Elliot frantically uttered.
“Well I don’t really know , but I will say yes cause my boss doesn’t do stuff without having a motive behind it”She tells him.
“Oh okay thanks for the information, see ya around”Elliot was about to leave when she held his hand.
“I thought you wanted to, you know”She mutters looking at the room then back at him.
Elliot noticed her looking at the room and smirking, he knew what she was trying to say but that wasn’t his aim for bringing her here.
“Maybe some other time”He gave her a quick peck on the lips before leaving.
“Omg, he is so hot!”She squeaks. She touched her lips slightly and jumped in excitement recalling how he pecked her.
“Hey you!”A lady shouted from behind, Terra looked back wondering who it was and saw Laila standing there glaring at her.
“Who are you?”Terra asked, staring at her nervously.
Laila walked towards her, Terra watched as she approached her silently.
“Who are you to Elliot?”Laila suddenly questioned.
“Huh?”Terra glares at her, not understanding what she meant.
“Listen to me plastic doll, Elliot is mine okay”Laila warns her, Terra scoffs rolling her eyes at her.
“Who do you think you are to come here and tell me rubbish!”She snaps at Laila.
“I’m just telling you to stay away from Elliot if you still like your Plastic face”Laila threatened her.
“Are you threatening me?”Terra questioned, she crossed her arms glaring at her.
“Well I don’t care if you see it as a threat or not, just stay away from him”Laila warns , She turns to leave but terra next word makes her freeze.
“I can’t do that, cause Elliot is mine he just even pecked me a while ago on the lips”Terra smirks tapping at her bottom lips lightly, Laila turns to look at her in disbelief.
“He did what?!”Laila yelled.
“You heard me, he kissed me okay so you better get your raggedy self to stop drooling over him because he is mine”Terra uttered right in her face.
She turns to leave but Laila dragged her back by the hair.
“How dare you kiss my Elliot!”Laila barks at her, dragging her hair.
“Let go of me you witch!”Terra yelled trying to free her hair from Laila’s grip.
“Never, I’m going to pull all your hair out today. Let’s see who looks ragged after that. ”Laila threatens to pull on her hair harder.
“Someone help me, this woman is insane!”Terra screams, calling out for help as Laila holds her hair tight.
Miss Cynthia and Nina saw the both of them fighting and immediately rushed to meet them.
“Let go of her hair Laila”Miss Cynthia ordered, trying to release Laila’s grip on terra’s hair.
“Never this bitch called me raggedy”Laila uttered, dragging her hair more.
“You are hurting her , stop Laila!”Nina yells, removing her hand entirely from Terra’s hair.
Terra left her grip fixing her clothes and hair as Laila stared at her with a piercing look.
“You are a mad woman”Terra remarked before leaving, Laila wanted to go after her but they held her back.
“Let go of me I need to teach that bitch a lesson”Laila groans struggling to get free from their grip.
“Enough Laila let’s go to the party”Miss Cynthia tries calming her down.
“Yeah, I heard Mr Andrew just came in,”Nina tells her.
“Mr Andrew, the hot guy?”Laila asked Nina, Nina nodded.
“Then what are we still doing here”Laila ran immediately leaving them behind. They chuckled before following after her from behind.
Everyone was now in the hall, Amelia and Liam arrived at the party and were about to go inside when Amelia stopped making Liam turn to look at her.
“You go in , I wanna get something from the car”Amelia tells him before going back to the car without waiting for his reply.
Liam sighs before going inside, Amelia got to the car and reached for her phone , she grabbed it before rushing towards Liam.
