Chapter 345 Mandy realized what Liam was about to do, and her whole body trembled with fear. "Stop! Are you out of your mind? Normand's still outside!" she pleaded, panic flooding her eyes as she shoved desperately at Liam's chest to halt his reckless advance.
Liam paused, looming over her as she lay sprawled across the seat, cheeks flushed and chest heaving. "Exactly. If he wants to watch and listen, let him. Maybe then he'll finally stop obsessing over you." "You're shameless. At least I still have sdignity," Mandy spat, glaring at him with gritted teeth.
Liam chuckled, a teasing glint in his eye. "Scared, are you?" His fingers traced lightly down her cheek, lingering at her collarbone. Wherever he touched, it felt like sparks skittered across Mandy's skin. The blush on her face deepened, spreading until she looked as red as a boiled lobster.
Her shy, flustered look clearly delighted Liam.
"Is this what you want?" he murmured, eyebrow raised and a wicked grin tugging at his lips.

Grinding her teeth, Mandy shot back, "Liam, enough already. I'm not even a man why are you chasinglike this?" Liam looked at her, completely baffled. "Of course you're not a man. If you were, I wouldn't be touching you right now." Mandy eyed him skeptically. "Don't givethat. I saw you hugging that pretty- boy the other day you two looked awfully close. You wantto believe you're not gay? Or maybe you swing both ways?" Feeling like she'd uncovered sscandalous truth, Mandy cursed under her breath. "God, you're disgusting!" Liam couldn't help but laugh at her wild accusations. "After everything we've done, you still don't realize I'm straight?" "Maybe I just didn't try hard enough last night," he said, voice low and dangerous. "How about we pick up where we left off-right here?" With that, his hand slipped boldly under her skirt.
Mandy's eyes went wide as she slapped his hand away, her voice trembling with a hint of desperation. "Please, don't." Just then, a commotion sounded outside.
Normand, having scrambled to his feet, began pounding furiously on the car window, his voice hoarse with emotion. "Liam! Let Mandy go! If you lay a finger on her, I swear I'll make you pay!" Liam froze but ignored Normand completely. Instead, he looked down at Mandy. "You don't like it here? Fine. We'll go hand finish this." Without warning, he yanked off his tie and quickly bound Mandy's wrists.
"Be good, or I'll make sure everyone gets a show," he whispered in her ear, his tone laced with threat.
Mandy turned her face away, refusing to look at his infuriatingly smug expression. Inside, she was silently cursing her luck-she'd definitely attracted a madman.
Liam stroked her hair almost affectionately. "That's better." Releasing her, he opened the car door and stepped out.
Seeing him emerge, Normand's eyes blazed with fury. "What did you do to Mandy?" he yelled.
Liam shot him a cold, disdainful look. "Do I need your permission to be with my own girlfriend?" Those words hit Normand like a slap. He raised his hand, ready to strike Liam again.
But Liam's eyes turned icy, sharp as a knife. "Didn't get enough last time?" Normand faltered, frozen in place.
He could only watch helplessly as Liam got back in the car. The Maybach's engine roared to life, and with a cloud of exhaust, it sped away.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmInside, Mandy straightened herself, regaining her composure.
"Takeback to campus," she demanded.
"We're going home," Liam replied coolly. "We've got unfinished business." Mandy could only gape at him, speechless.
Claire and Sean walked side by side along the quiet street, the evening air cool and soothing.
May had already been driven home, but Claire, eager for sfresh air, decided to take a walk to clear her head and maybe help her dinner settle.
They strolled in silence, neither speaking, until they reached a small bridge. There Claire finally stopped and turned to face him.
