Chapter 141 Liam’s Purpose

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Rita rushed back to school.

When she got to the dormitory hall, she found the stairwell was teemed with people.

“The war between rivals of love.”

Some girl said as she nudged at her friend. “Who do you think is going to win?”

Her friend plucked her answer out. “Of course I hope it will be Lilly.”

Lilly?

Rita made a halt when she heard the name. She raised her eyes to the center of the crowd, and spied

Nora for an instant. Nora was stopped by Lilly at the doorway of her dorm.

“You will never enter this room with me here.”

“Lilly, the school made this arrangement.” Leaning on her crutch, Nora said miserably. “I really don't

have a choice.”

“You don't have a choice?” a chilly smile appeared on Lilly’s face. She grabbed Nora’s collar and jerked

her. “You know how much I hate you. But still, you nagged Liam to transfer you to W university.”

Nora’s silence aggravated Lilly.

She thrust her away. “Get out of here, you’re not welcome here.”

Nora reeled back, the crowd made way for her when she fell toward them.

Rita wanted to move away too. But incidentally, Nora just plunged down right beside Rita and her

crutch smacking at Rita’s left leg.

“I’m sorry, I’m so…”

Hurriedly, Nora picked up the crutch and raised her face to look at the face above her.

Her heart thumped when she saw Rita and her face became pale for an instant.

Rita just now had witnessed her indignity.

Damn it.

Nora tightened her grip at her crutch, her knuckles white.

“Rita, are you alright? I mean, your leg.” Lilly glanced at Rita’s leg, guilt in her eyes.

Her brother broke Rita’s leg once, she didn't want to repeat her brother’s mistake, whether intentionally

or not.

The Wilson had owed Rita too much already.

“I’m OK.”

Rita said plainly, and then whirled to leave.

As to Lilly and Nora’s discrepancy, she wanted no part of it.

Lily intercepted her though. “Rita, could you do me a favor? Tell Liam to send this sucker back to

wherever she has come from. Otherwise, don't blame me if I do something that displease him.”

Rita was a little grated when she head Liam’s name.

She gave Nora a sideways look, and then grudge that Liam caring so much for the Nash.

Liam said he love the wrong girl, Rita didn't think so.

For Joey’s sake, he forgave the Nash. And now, he helped Nora with her school transfer. All those

manifested his love for Joey.

But that’s not for the people to know, especially not to Nora.

Rita smiled, brightly. “I’m afraid that I can’t help you with that.”

“Why?” Lilly asked, confused.

“Liam must have a good reason for this, I believe him.” She and Liam masqueraded as a loving couple

in the school, and she had to maintain that image in front of people.

“But…”Lilly was still confused.

“I have some unfinished business, excuse me.” Rita said curtly and then left.

Nora, however, had just crawled back up to her feet. And what Rita said stung at her exquisitely.

She’s right. Liam must have a reason for this.

The only term Liam needed her to meet if she wanted Liam to forgive her family, was that her transfers

to W university and lives in the school.

At the beginning, Nora thought that Liam was helping her to finish her education. But when she found

out that Lilly was her roommate, she realized that it was only her delusion.

She realized Liam’s intention now.

He arranged for her to live in the same room with Lilly so that she would be humiliated all the time.

Her heart ached when she realize that, body trembling.

When Rita shut the door of her dorm behind her, a thick layer of dark haze covered her face as the

indifference faded.

How much she felt sulky now was no less than how much she pretended to trust Liam just then.

No one stirred her mood like Liam whether in her previous life or the present life.

“You’re back?”

Abruptly, Liam’s voice rang in the room. Rita was shocked.

Puzzled, she moved her eyes and found Liam on her bed.

Why is he here?

For a moment, confusion took over the gloom, but soon the gloom reclaimed its reign. “Why are you

here, and…how’d you get in here?”

Her dorm was a single room and only she had the key to the room.

Then how did this man get in.

“I’m here because I want to be.” He could be anywhere he wanted so long it’s in W City. It’s all at his

beck and call.

And it was him who told the school to arrange the room for her, so he had a spare key.

Rita’s mouth twitched at his absurd explanation.

She didn't want to waste any more time now that he was in the room.

So she repressed her impatience, asked coldly. “So, what are you here for?”

“Sleep with me.”

Liam said evenly, but it startled Rita so much that she lost her breath for a second.

Warily, she took a step back.

“Just sleep, I mean nothing else.” Perceiving her resistance, Liam explained.

“No way!”

“…Wake me up after half an hour.”

Ignoring her refusal, Liam kept lying in the bed.

Rita’s brows wrinkled at Liam’s disrespect of her will.

Whatever. Let him sleep here alone for she had a class to attend anyway.

She strode to the desk for her textbook. But one of her arm was grabbed and pulled, and then she fell

right on Liam.

Liam locked her in his arms before she could get up.

She pressed her hands against his chest, trying to shove him away from her.

But the harder her resistance was, the tighter the hug was.

“Let go of me!” She gritted her teeth.

“Half an hour.”

“You!” she trained to break off his embrace, fury ablaze in her eyes.

Suddenly, Lilly’s voice came from outside the dorm. “Rita?”

For an instant, Rita’s body stiffened. She raised her eyes and was relieved when she saw the door was

locked. “I am. What?”

“Nothing. It’s just that I heard something fall down , are you alright?” Lilliy’s voice came through the

door, thick with concern.

Frowning, Rita looked at herself in Liam’s arms.

She couldn’t tell Lilly what’s going on here.

The whole school would know that she took a man into her dorm if Lilly saw the scene.

After brooding for a while, she made a smile. “I’m alright.”

“Then I won’t disturb you.” Lilly returned to her dorm.

Stealthily, Rita took a sigh, and then glared at the man above her.

But she could not make too loud a noise now no matter how bad she wanted to escape from him. She

didn’t want to be on the headline of the gossip section on the school forum.

Your reputation is more important. She told herself, trying to calm her down.

In Liam’s arms, Rita licked her lips and announced. “Liam. After I come back from Country C, I want a

divorce certificate.”
