A Deal With The Devil

Mr. Cameron interrupts Alfred's peaceful moment with the cookies "Mr. Alfred, here is juice to step down your snacks" he offered a glass of juice. He accepts the juice and bow slightly "Thank you so much" he appreciates, Mr. Cameron bowed and left him alone. Alfred sips the glass of juice "Taste nice" he murmured.

Terry kneels before Liam on the cold floor "Will you protect my baby, I promise to do anything in return" he pleads.

"Don't die of cold, stand up, I will protect him but I want something in return" he said with a foxy smile.

Terry stands up from his kneel, he jumped up in the excitement of Liam's acceptance "I knew I can always count on you. What did you want in return, I am ready to do anything" he promised not realizing he just signed a deal with the devil.

Liam smirked "I want you to do two things in exchange for the protection I give him....he paused for a moment, Terry waiting in eagerness.

"I want you to come to the business world enough of messing around, uncle Phillip wants you to join the business world to bring me down but I want you to join to bring him down, you joining the business world will give Lalisa less power" Liam propose his deal in a serious expression.

Terry process what Liam said for a moment before he held Liam's hand "You are joking right?" he asked in confusion. Liam knew well that he despises the business world because of the dirty game lurking around it, Liam is a wise businessman, keeping someone from his opponent is an important tool to use in the business world.

Liam smirked at Terry's hesitation, he stands up from the swing "Guess he is not worth protecting, you waste my time already" he checked his wristwatch. "You know where to find me," he said and walked towards the main building without looking back.

Terry knew Liam was the only person that could help him, it will be foolish of him to let him go just like that, he stands up from the swing "Wait for me" he shouted behind and run towards Liam who was waiting at the entrance of the main mansion.

Terry was panting heavily "I told you to wait for me, I am so tired," he said breathing heavily.

"You should hit the gym, all your muscles are worn out, how did you keep fit on the bed, I doubt you are a good player" he teased.

Terry controlled his breath before he replied "I'm not that weak, especially in that aspect" he praised himself.

"So, what your decision, you in or out?" He asked.

Terry smiled awkwardly "It's a tough decision, I can't make the decision hastily, I will come to the company tomorrow for my answer he promised.

"Well, choose wisely" he pats his shoulder. Terry nodded "I will" he assured him.

Liam and Terry heard the sound of a lady's heels, they looked in the direction of where the sound was coming from, but they couldn't see anyone due to the darkness of the dusk.

"Who is there?" Terry asked standing behind Liam in fear.

Liam on his phone torch light to check who it was, the ray of light from the phone was directed to Lisa's face, she blocked the light with her hands to avoid direct contact with her eyes, she walked towards them, Liam off his torchlight, and hissed in disinterest.

Terry looked pissed "What are you doing here? He confronts Lalisa who stopped walking as she got to where they are standing, she was quite surprised to see Liam at Terry's house, Liam is not the kind that visits people at their mansion, and thoughts run through her mind "What is he doing here? Is he planning something against dad? Has Terry joined hands with him?" Terry snapped his fingers twice to call the attention of Lalisa, who looked lost.

She snapped out of her thoughts "I...i.m" she stutters trying to remember Terry's first question when she approached him.

"Cat cut your tongue? What are you doing here?" Terry asks impatiently.

She composed herself and returned to her cold evil self not wanting to lose her face in Liam's presence "Stop shouting like a stray dog, I am here to pick up my car, does it look like yours?" She said rudely. Liam folds his arm watching his two cousin's drama.

Terry recalled that he was forced out of the house this morning, he didn't take his car out, the thought of what happened in the morning pissed him more and more, he looked at his blood sister with hatred in his eyes "Once you leave with your car, I don't want to see you here, I despise you and dad" he said in full seriousness.

Lalisa grinned "You despise people that are trying to make you live a good and better life while you love someone that just wants to use and dump you for his gain". Liam knew she was indirectly talking to him, he won't take such an insult, he gave her a deadly stare "Language Lalisa Smith" he warned in a threatening manner.

Lalisa isn't the type that gets intimidated easily, she rolled her eyes "I didn't mention any names but seems you know yourself" she said sarcastically.

"My car key". She asked Terry with full confidence, thinking she shut Liam up.

Liam take step towards Lalisa, and she moved back a little "A better life you say, how can you give him a better life when your whole life is controlled by Uncle Phillip, it's not like you can decide on your own before you even go to bed you ask for permission, Terry is a wise kid, he knows how to breakthrough but you..." He paused for a moment. "You are a slave to Uncle Phillip, wake up and do want you to want not what he wants," he told her the bitter truth.
