Chapter Five: Beneath the suit and tie
As Liam and Ava were back from the magic of the moment, they began to talk and discuss about stuffs. Just then Ava made way to ask a question.
"Now that we're together, I still don't know anything about your family," Ava said, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.
Liam smiled reassuringly.
"In time, I will introduce you to them."
Ava's brow furrowed.
"Why can't you tell me something now?"
As she spoke, Liam's mind flashed back to their earlier conversation at the burger joint. Ava's words echoed in his mind: "Maybe money is the root of all evil. There's no such thing as a good-hearted billionaire."
Liam's eyes snapped back into focus.
"I think we should wait for things to settle down with my job, and then I'll introduce you to them."
Ava's eyes narrowed playfully.
"You better not be lying to me."
Liam's smile was genuine.
