Chapter 328
After hanging up the phone. Cynthia remembered the photos taken during the meal. She quietly got up and retrieved Liam’s phone from his coat. But when she eagerly held it, she encountered a hurdle. The phone needed to be unlocked.
The phone required either a password or facial recognition to unlock. Due to the high security level of Liam’s phone, facial recognition required him to be awake. Cynthia tried twice but didn’t succeed. The phone didn’t have fingerprint recognition enabled, or else she could have tried each of his fingers. Right then, she could only guess the password.
Cynthia tried Liam’s birthday, his phone number, his grandparents‘ birthdays, and even her birthday, but nothing worked. While racking her brains, the lounge door was kicked open. Ziv burst in with several men in black. The door, due to their rough entry, ended up on the floor.
They thought Liam was in danger or someone was attempting to steal company secrets, so they acted swiftly, Right then, upon looking at the scene in the lounge, they exchanged glances before turning their unified gazes to Ziv
Ziv’s mind was in disarray. He had considered every possibility but never imagined Cynthia would try to unlock Liam’s phone. What? Mrs. Sullivan doesn’t know Mr. Sullivan’s phone password?‘ he wondered.
Startled by their abrupt entry, Cynthia shuddered, and the phone slipped from her hand onto the bed. The commotion also woke Liam. He massaged his temples, and looked at Ziv and the men who had suddenly appeared in the doorway. He then glanced at Cynthia and the phone before her. His expression softened as he sighed, shaking his head. “Did you manage to unlock it!”
Cynthia looked at him in shock and asked incredulously. “How did you know I was trying to unlock your phone!”
Instead of answering immediately, Liam turned to the bewildered men at the door and said, “You can leave now
After they had left, Liam explained. “My phone is connected to the security system. If there are multiple failed attempts to unlock it, the system automatically sends my location to Ziv and the others. Normally, they wouldn’t dare barge into my lounge, but as soon as I saw them, I knew what was going on.
As Cynthia listened to him, she lowered her head and said inwardly. This is so cımbarrassing I caused a commation just trying to peek at his phone”
Liam stared at the back of her head and smiled. He knew why she had taken his phone, so he deliberately teased, “Do you want to know my phone’s password”
Cynthia immediately lifted her head, asking with curiosity, “What is it?”
“Gurss. I’ll give you a hint. It’s a date that’s very special to both of us Liam looked at her meaningfully.
Cynthia racked her brain but couldn’t figure out which date it was. She had already tried all the important dates she could think of while attempting to unlock the phone earlier. She honestly couldn’t figure it out.
“Honey, give me another hint. Cynthia leaned on Liam’s shoulder, her voice soft and coquettish.
“Our first time, prompted helpfully.
First time?‘ Cynthia thought, blushing at his words. Is he referring to what I have in mind?
Lost in thought, Cynthia picked up the phone again and entered a series of numbers. The screen promptly displayed Unlock successful She looked up and saw Liam’s strange expression.
After a while, she couldn’t help but remark, “I didn’t expect you to be so coquettish, using the date of your first time as your phone password. Were you afraid you’d forget”
No sooner had she finished speaking that she felt a light tap on her forehead. Liam chuckled and replied, “What are you thinking? I chose the day we first met. Meeting you made me very happy. It’s a day worth remembering for me.”
“Oh So, that was it Cynthia exclaimed internally. She covered her forehead, her face turning redder.
“You weren’t thinking of those things, were you?” Liam leaned in, a mischievous grin on his face. “But I can understand. I was quite impressive that day, right? No wonder it left a mark on you.”
“Who’s impressed?” Cynthia retorted, her face flushed with embarrassment. She had completely forgotten about deleting the photos. Flustered, she turned and left the lounge.
Liam watched her retreating figure, feeling pleased. Truth be told, the intoxicasing sensation of that day left a lasting impression on him, too.
After Cynthia had exited, Liam didn’t continue lying down. The fever had completely subsided by then, and he had recovered. He spent the afternoon dealing with documents in the office, while Cynthia read on the couch.
When it was time to get off work. Ziv arrived with people to install the new door, Liam was annoyed by the noise, so he took the files and went
1/2
home with Cynthia. Their ride, naturally, was the Maybach with pink upholstery.
Three days passed quickly. Liam had recovered physically, and he had managed to clear most of the workload from his intense overtime over the past two days
That morning, Cynthia was still asleep while Liam had already gotten up. It seemed that he was more enthusiastic than her about taking wedding photos. He packed their huggage, considering every possible emergency, and filled a large suitcase.
When Cynthia woke up and saw the suitcase, she was pleasantly surprised. She hugged Liam and kissed him on the cheek several times, genuinely praising him, “How are you so capable?”
He was truly a gem, constantly surprising her. With the luggage sorted out, Cynthia felt much more relaxed. She only needed to take care of herself
Although the trip was primarily for wedding photos, it was also a chance for them to have fun.
There were many people going, so Liam decided to charter a private plane, splurging on a last–minute flight route. The Sullivan family’s private airstrip was located at the back hills of the Sullivan residence, reserved exclusively for their private planes. Cynthia and Liam decided not to disturb David and Jasmine. The main concern was that there were many young people on that trip, and they were worried David and Jasmine might struggle physically, which could dampen everyone’s spirits. They reckoned it’d be better to plan another trip where the whole family could go together and enjoy themselves.
The pair went
ent straight to the airstrip. Mila was already there, with several large hoses nearby containing the wedding dresses for the shoot. She wa the assistant designer for the wedding dresses this time and was in charge of the shoot. At the sight of the couple, she greeted with a smile, “Ms. Larson, Mr. Sullivan.”
Following the incident at the club, Cynthia showed no aversion and greeted politely, “Ms. Ward, you’re early
Liam’s expression remained cold throughout. He wasn’t keen on engaging with Mila.
But Mila didn’t mind. Her expression remained unchanged, sull wearing a smile as she answered, “I had a lot to bring, and I didn’t want to keep you waiting, so I came early.”
“Oh, Ms. Ward, how’s your recovery from the injury last time?” Cynthia asked.
Mila answered calmly, Thank you for your concer, Ms. Larson. I’ve recovered almost completely
