MY ONE NIGHT STAND WITH MR ARROGANT

Louisa and Amelia exchanged a brief glance before moving out of the way. Old Grayson walked majestically into the room exuding a powerful aura.

His piercing grey orbs looked around the mini living room fit for a young lady. He sat down on one of the small sofa’s in the room.

Amelia snapped out of her daze and walked towards him. “Grandfather what brings you here?”

Amelia stood akimbo, she knew well that old Grayson doesn’t like her at all but what the hell was he doing at Louisa’s apartment?.

Old Grayson turned to Louisa who took that as a cue to give them some privacy, she watched Louisa leave the room before averting her gaze back to the old man in front of her.

“Amelia Hart….

“Amelia Grayson” she corrected.

Old Grayson let out a smirk this was one thing he hated about this lady, she was too daring and brave for his likeness.

“What’s the use of bearing a name that is not rightfully meant for you?” Old Grayson said in a loud tone with a mixture of sarcasm.

Amelia’s lips parted slightly as she tried to decipher what he meant by that. “What do you mean?”

“I know you are only with him because you want to secure a part of the Grayson’s wealth for yourself but I’ve come here to make your job easier for you”.

Amelia heaved a deep breath, if not for the sake that he is an old man she would have shown him his way out long ago.

He snapped his finger and two guards came in holding two brief case each, they dropped it by old Grayson’s side and stood beside him.

“Three hundred million, I’m willing to offer that if you leave this city and Liam for good”.

“What the….”

He raised his hand to silence her speech, he had been a witness to how much venom she spits out when angered.

“It’s an order from me! Liam is already betrothed and do you know who she is? Allison and she is the country’s mayor only daughter”.

Amelia folded her arms beneath her bossom staring at the old man in bewilderment. “You sure know everything about me but you must also know that I love winning, I’m not going to leave a task incomplete I make sure to finish it”

“And grandpa, I’m never going to leave Liam because of some Allison I don’t care if she is the moon’s daughter”. Amelia added, she couldn’t believe how cheap old Grayson was deeming her to be.

Even if she and Liam do have disagreement and arguments on most things, she couldn’t deny the fact that she was now attracted to him.

“But you have no other choice”.

“Don’t try to instill fear in me Mr Grayson I’m not scared of you!”.

Old Grayson felt insulted and stood up to his feet with blood shot eyes. “You have two days to decide either you leave willing or you leave by force!”.

Amelia felt something shift in her stomach as soon as she perceived old Grayson’s cologne. She excused herself rushing into the bathroom.

Old Grayson’s face paled, he turned towards the direction of where she left. His jaw clenched in anger as he went out in anger..

..

Liam’s eyes turned towards the door which flung open, he closed the file he was holding and picked up his mug of hot tea as soon as he saw who it was.

“You brat!”

Liam adjusted his tie, he took a sip from his mug and twirled his chair to face the large glass window showing off a fair part of the city. “If you are here to make unnecessary demands you better leave before I loose my cool”.

“You know fully well the consequences of your stupid actions”.

Liam twirled his seat to face his grandfather, their powerful set of grey eyes met, he placed the mug on his large desk.

“I think carefully before I make any move and so far I haven’t made any wrong move which I should be weary of” Liam seconded.

He stood up from his seat with both hands in his pants pocket walking slowly towards his grandfather.

“You made a mistake by dragging that actress into your life son”

“That was one of my best decisions, I told you before and I’ll tell you again I’m not part of your family so your selfish rules doesn’t have an impact on me Mr Grayson!”

Old Grayson’s chest heaved up and down in anger so far he doesn’t know who is more arrogant and proud between Liam and Amelia. “You should have thought about that before getting trapped in that fire that nearly claimed your life!”

What? Liam’s thick brows drew together in anger, he turned sharply to his grandfather who was still standing so proudly as ever.

“The fire? the reason I’m alive today is because of Amelia, Allison wasn’t the one who rescued me from that chapel and I never asked you to set up an alliance with her for me”.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Old Grayson gnashed his teeth in anger Wondering how on earth Liam could find out about that.

“You know well that dracula is Allison’s brother, he has threatened to drag you through the walls of the underworld if you ever break the alliance with his sister”.

Liam let out a grin “If that’s the case I’ll be waiting for that day to come”

So far the only person who was bold enough to go against him and come after him was his daring wife Amelia Grayson!

..

Amelia held her head which was starting to hurt badly, she got out of the bed heading to the bathroom for a shower.

Louisa placed a bowl of hot soup on the table, her eyes glanced towards the door worriedly hearing Amelia cough out severally.

She knocked on the door slightly “Amy are you alright?”. Louisa worriedly asked.

“Yeah I’m good”.

Louisa breathed out in relief she moved towards the briefcase that Liam’s grandfather left yesterday.

..

.

Brianna held Liam’s hand that was fisted on the dining table. “Son I know how selfish and conniving your grandfather can be but make sure you do whatever your heart desires”.

Liam placed his large palm over his mum’s hand “Mum grandfather is trying to act and play smart with me”.

Brianna’s eyes teared up “Liam this is all my fault! if I hadn’t…..”

Liam squeezed her hands slightly “Shhh don’t say all that, this isn’t your fault in any way, grandfather started this I only want to know two things who started that fire years ago and who pushed you off the balcony I don’t know why but I feel that this two incidents are connected in a way”.

“I’m so sorry that I’m not really helpful but I can’t remember anything about that day”.

Liam embraced his mum easing the tension that was already starting to build up, he needed to find some certain things. He could sense a conspiracy but by whom?

..

.

Nicholas entered his grandfather’s study room “Grandfather, here you are”…

Old Grayson hurriedly closed the file that he was holding placing it in a drawer next to him which Nicholas found a bit suspicious.

‘What is this old man up to now? Nicholas asked inwardly.

“What is it boy? you should learn to knock sometimes”.

“Sorry grandfather but there’s something urgent that came up now it’s about Amelia”
