Chapter 18 Kiss

18: Kiss

Miles's POV:

When I reached the party with Liam, David welcomed us with a huge smile and I regretted being there already. I loved watching him squirm around me.

I still couldn’t figure out why he backed off that project two years ago and it annoyed me. I have an inkling it has something to do with my own extended family. So I guess I shouldn’t be too harsh on him. Because I know Millers can be ruthless sometimes. But still, I needed to set an example. So I bought 50% of his company shares and refused to show up to board meetings. His business has suffered tremendously afterwards.

“I really hope we can forget the past and off a new start, Miles,” he forwards his hand to shake mine.

I just glance at it and say,”Well, that depends how loyal you are to me now onwards. after all we are equal partners.”

He flushes.

“Give me a chance, Miles. My company is suffering badly,” he says with desperation in his voice.
