Liam Spencer looked at someone's impatient demeanor, holding in a bellyful of anger, because Maya Spencer had no idea what the problem was.
Thus, he suddenly increased the pressure on her chin and angrily asked, "Why lie?"
Maya Spencer was startled by his fierce demeanor and only then realized that he was angry about her lying.
Maya had always been open about doing bad things, so she was never good at lying. Now, facing Liam's questioning, she felt guilty.
Seeing his furious look, Maya didn't want to engage with him, especially since they were in a public setting and the elevator doors could open at any time. So she suddenly said, "If I told you I was having dinner with my second brother, would you freak out? I don't want to invite trouble."
Ultimately, unable to withstand his strong aura, she confessed.
