MY ONE NIGHT STAND WITH MR ARROGANT

Allison held Liam’s arm before turning to the other lady who was Amelia. “Stop looking for excuses to throw yourself at my date”.

Amelia flashed a grin “Hey there! I’m sorry I didn’t see you but I have a quick correction to make darling”

“why are you throwing yourself at my husband?”

Allison swallowed hard, there was no way that she could beat this lady when it came to arguments.

Liam knew this wouldn’t end well especially when his drama queen wife was present, he really needed to maintain his profile for tonight’s event.

“You listen carefully actress….”

“Amelia Grayson!” Amelia corrected in a low and authoritative tone.

“The sooner you start learning how to address me properly, the lesser your heartbreak will be”. Amelia added.

Kelvin was a bit worried as he saw the two ladies argue head on, he really didn’t want to get involved in the Grayson’s affairs but Amelia had pleaded with him to be her date just to get back at her husband.

He hadn’t forgotten how Liam almost destroyed his face at the hospital two days ago.

He took in a deep breath and started walking towards Amelia..

..

Old Grayson arrived with the other family members, this was the night that he had been looking forward to for the last two days after he came up with a brilliant plan.

Angie held Nicholas shoulder lovingly “Prince go on, mingle with a few business men and women you have to start practicing your new life once Liam is eliminated”.

Nicholas rolled his eyes at his mum jokingly “Mum! why else did I come here if not for ….”

He trailed off staring in one direction, Angie followed his line of sight gnashing her teeth together. “Son look at me, forget her she’s bad news”.

Nicholas took his mum’s hand in his “She is your future daughter please respect her” he said before leaving.

“Just who does she think she is? she has managed to trap every guy in her clutches even my prince too”.

Chloe scurried out of her mother’s sight, she hid behind a table staring at the back of her target whom she had planned a sneak attack on since her mum doesn’t want her to visit her big bro she came up with a mischievous idea.

Old Grayson spotted Liam among the crowd in the large hall talking to a few business partners. He smirked at his foolish grandson who thinks that everything must go his own way.

The MC climbed up on the podium and tapped the microphone a bit to gain everyone’s attention. “Good evening to my fellow business men and women, as we all know we’ve gathered here for the launching ceremony of the new project by the Grayson’s groups of companies I would like to welcome the host of this splendid event Mr Liam Grayson!”

There was a huge round of applause as Liam climbed the podium. He let out a little smile and started his speech.

Angie looked up at the giant golden chandelier dangling over the podium and smiled.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

Meanwhile Amelia secretly admired her husband who was giving his speech but her eyes caught sight of a little girl leaving the hall. “Isn’t she Liam’s step sister?”.

She was a bit curious and followed the direction of where she went.

Amelia found herself outside a garden and Chloe was nowhere to be found! “Little girl ! where are you? come out dear”

She was greeted by silence in return, she heard a shuffling sound in the nearby bushes and walked towards it. “Are you hiding in there?”.

“Amelia!”

Her hair stood on ends hearing her name, she turned around immediately she recognized the voice. “Nicholas”.

His gaze darted to the bush “Did you loose something?”

She turned to the bush still checking around for the little girl “yeah….. I saw your little sister heading out this way but I can’t find her”.

Nicholas looked around “Well my sister is very mischievous I’m sure she must have left by now”

..

.

Old Grayson stood on the podium right after Liam gave his speech. “Well my grandson has said it all he has managed to lift our companies to the peak, and now for the second part of this event”.

Liam raised his head to meet his grandfather’s eyes, so as the rest of the guests. The hall was filled with whisper and murmurs.

Dylan nudged Liam “What else are you planning to do?”.

“I wonder what he is up to now”.

Louisa looked around for Amelia, she couldn’t go far because of her heels. She hated wearing heels but what could she do? she didn’t want to embarrass her date Dylan.

Old Grayson remained quiet until the noise died down before he continued his speech. “I want to use this opportunity to announce to you about my grandson’s alliance with Allison Williams the daughter of our mayor!”.

The crowd let out a loud gasp before a round of applause followed suite. This was really unbelievable and a shocking night for them, the media would definitely make a juicy news out of this.

Liam’s jaw clenched tightly, he took a step forward to object when his phone beeped..

..

Liam walked forward taking Allison’s hand gently pulling her out of her seat. He led her slowly towards the podium.

“And now to make things official between them”

Angie’s eyes widened at the turn of events, she had actually planned on making the giant chandelier crush Liam to death, but who knew that Liam would comply to get engaged to Allison.

Old Grayson handed the rings to the two for them to exchange. Liam looked around the crowd hoping to spot someone but he that was not possible now.

Allison couldn’t fathom Liam’s sudden change in attitude. She felt endless joy when she felt the cold object sliding into her finger.

Without wasting any more time she slipped the ring with her on Liam’s finger.

There was a round of applause as Liam came down from the podium with Allison, the media were allowed to come into the hall to take pictures of Liam and Allison.

Mark walked towards Liam in slow steps”So this was all your plan?” Liam started.

“Son believe me when I say that your grandfather is responsible for all these, he purposely made me stay out late”.

“You never blame yourself for anything Mr Grayson but whoever is responsible for this mess today will have me to contend with”

Amelia returned back to the hall with Chloe and Nicholas, she noticed the hall was overly rowdy. Louisa spotted Amelia walking into the hall.

“What is going on?” she asked Nicholas curiously who shook his head slightly.

“Mr Grayson just got engaged to Allison Williams, the mayor’s daughter”.

Amelia’s heart skipped a beat as she saw the shiny object gracing Liam and Allison’s finger.

Liam tried to keep his fake smile in front of the media, his gaze wandered around the hall till it locked with Amelia’s eyes that were asking for explanation.

He took a step forward to approach her before he could take another step she walked out of the hall.

Liam felt a grip on his shoulder “I gave you a warning Mr Grayson but you didn’t heed to it, this is just a warning!”.
