Chapter 191 Does Liam Want to Be With Imogen?
The next day at noon, Imogen and Charlie, tired from shopping and dined at a restaurant. While waiting
for their dishes, Imogen checked her phone and wondered. “Hasn’t Liam arrived yet? Why hasn’t he
sent any messages?”
According to the flight information Liam provided, he should have arrived in Sydney this morning.
With amusement in her eyes, Charlie glanced behind Imogen. “Maybe his flight was delayed. Let’s wait
a bit longer.”
“Alright, we’ll wait.”
Just then, Imogen’s vision was suddenly obscured.
A pair of giant hands covered her eyes!
Instinctively, Imogen tried to remove the hands.
The owner of the hands lowered his voice. “Guess who?! If you guess right, there’s a gift for you!”
Recognizing the voice, Imogen laughed. “Liam, aren’t you being a bit childish?!”
Liam released Imogen, looking slightly disappointed. “Was it that obvious?”
“Of course it was! Where do you want to sit?” Imogen asked.
There were empty chairs next to both her and Charlie.
“I’ll sit here.” Liam pointed to the seat next to Imogen. He wasn’t very familiar with Charlie, so this
choice made sense.
Imogen shifted over, placing her bag on the empty chair opposite her. She looked at Liam. “When did
you arrive? Why didn’t you let me know?”
Liam adjusted the utensils before him. “I wanted to surprise you.”
“How did you find us here?”
Liam glanced at Charlie. “I guessed. I recommended this place to Ms. Franco.”
“You’re quite clever. Finished with work?”
“Yes, everything before Christmas is done. The rest is for next year.”
Imogen sighed, hearing the word next year. “Time flies. Another year has passed. Oh, I got you a gift.”
Imogen took a beautifully wrapped box from her bag and placed it on the table. “Open it and see if you
like it.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLiam smiled at Imogen. “I also brought you a gift.”
Liam took out a small box from his pocket.
Such a small box could either contain a ring or earrings.
Imogen was both surprised and exasperated. “Why did you bring me a gift? It’s not a holiday or any
special day!”
Charlie, always one to enjoy drama between Imogen and Liam, said, “Imogen, Liam gives you a small
gift. Just accept it.”
Liam nodded in agreement. “Didn’t I say there’s a gift if you guessed right? So, this is your reward for
guessing correctly!”

Imogen joked. “I would’ve guessed wrong if I knew.”
Liam laughed. “If you had, I would’ve found another time to give it to you.”
Just as Imogen contemplated how to decline, Liam took out another similar box and pushed it towards
Charlie, “Ms. Franco, this is for you too. It’s my first time traveling with two ladies. If there’s anything I
missed, please forgive me.”
Charlie immediately opened the box to find a pair of exquisite earrings, “Thanks! Imogen, aren’t you
going to accept yours?”
With both of them receiving gifts, Imogen felt declining would be rude. She was about to put it back in
the box when Liam said, “Aren’t you going to open it?”
Inside, Imogen found a pair of earrings, the same design as Charlie’s.
“Do you like them? I’m not great at picking gifts. It took me a while to choose these,” Liam said, looking
worried.
“They’re lovely,” Imogen replied with a smile.
In reality, they were just average in her eyes. But the thought counted, especially since Liam had
chosen them himself.
Men didn’t have the best taste.
Imogen remembered the many pieces of jewelry Troy had given her, each exquisite.
But none were chosen by Troy.
They were all top–selling items recommended by Lane from the jewelry store, so they were always
perfect.
That’s why Imogen never liked those and never wore any of them.
“As long as you both like them.”
“We can wear them as our best friend’s jewelry tomorrow,” Charlie suggested, packing the box. “Aren’t
you going to check out the gift Imogen got you? We met a crazy people while buying gifts yesterday.
Thankfully, the shopkeeper was understanding.”
Liam examined the box on the table. “This looks like a watch. I’ve been needing one.”
Liam opened the box to find a refined yet understated mechanical watch, exuding an air of quiet.
elegance.
“Wow, Imogen, you have good taste! I like this watch. Put it on for me.”
Liam handed the watch to Imogen and stretched out his wrist.
Imogen picked up the watch and put it on Liam’s wrist.
Imogen slightly lowered her head, her hair cascading gracefully beside her ears.
From Liam’s viewpoint, Imogen’s long, dark eyelashes fluttered like delicate butterfly wings. Her skin
was fair and flawless, reminding him of porcelain, and Liam could even spot the soft peach fuzz on her
cheeks.
“All set,” Imogen said, adjusting the watch on Liam’s wrist. “Is it good?”
Liam looked at his wrist and smiled. “It’s perfect. I’m not taking it off!”
Imogen chuckled but suddenly felt a cold sensation on her back. Could Troy be nearby?
That’s impossible.
Imogen looked around, ensuring Troy wasn’t in the restaurant.
It must’ve been her imagination.
From the second floor of the coffee shop across the street, Troy watched Liam, his eyes darkening
like a stormy sky.
Why was Liam here?
He was like a bad penny!
Then Troy saw Imogen hand Liam a box.
Troy stared in disbelief, recognizing the men’s watch Imogen had bought the day before.
So it was for Liam?

Did she know Liam was coming today?
Had they planned this?
Why would she give Liam a gift?
Liam also brought her a gift. How convenient!
Troy clenched his fists so hard his knuckles cracked.
No wonder Imogen kept pushing him away, not wanting him to follow. She probably didn’t want Troy to
see her with Liam!!
Imogen had said their dinner was a farewell meal, implying they’d go their separate ways. It seemed
she had already planned to accept Liam!!
Troy was seething.
Does Liam want to be with Imogen?
In his dreams!
With a grim expression, Troy took out his phone and made a call.
“Do you know what projects Liam is currently involved in? All of them!”
“I’m not entirely sure. From what I know, there’s a reality show, two advertisements, and those are
scheduled for next year. Oh, and there’s our modern drama.”
“How is the preparation for that? When does it start filming?”
“It’s almost ready. It was originally scheduled for after Christmas.”
“Start filming tomorrow.”
“What?” The person on the other end was shocked, thinking they had misheard. “Mr. Marshall, are you
serious?”
“Charge any additional costs are on me.”
“It’s not just about the costs. The sudden change might conflict with other actors‘ schedules.” “I’m
giving you three days to coordinate. In three days, I want to see Liam on set.”
“Okay. I understand. I’ll get on it.”
Whether or not others could make it didn’t matter. As long as Liam was on set, it was fine. He was
currently free, so he should have time.
“I’ll be waiting for the good news.”
After hanging up, Troy glared at Liam across the street. He’d only have to endure him for a few
