"Okay then let's start. Aunty you don't need to worry." Assuring he broke Meg's chain of thoughts.
Smith left the hall.
Meg stood at a distance noting down the measurements while Liam helped the model with their measurements. Finally the part was over and they were sent for their fittings.
"Thankyou Liam...sorry thankyou Sir" she said biting her lips. She didn't want things to happen again. She moved away and turned away to avoid his gaze.
Seeing her panicked Liam couldn't help but laugh.
"Miss Gray you don't need to be so formal."
"Sir you see this is office and working hours so I think it's better to maintain proper relationship."
"Of?" Liam asked taking steps towards her. Meg felt him coming nearer and ran out of the hall quickly to avoid him. It was best for both.
She went into the washroom and kept her hand on her chest to stop her thumping heart.
She remembered the lines "When you realise, it's him who's on your mind baby you got my number".
Unintentionally she smiled remembering Liam's face and the next moment slapped herself for her insane thoughts.
Meg you should stay away from him. Don't let him affect you. They are all the same. Playboys. Your heart is not one to play with. He is trying to play with your heart. Fucking attention seeker. She thought to herself and mimicked Liam's voice from last night.
Finally the day was over. Liam was no more spotted again. She was relieved.
She drove her car to her apartment and freshened up. Changing into her comfy pjs she pulled out a mask and putting up on her face checking her mobile for updates.
Soon due to extreme tiredness, sleep beckoned her and she soon drifted off to sleep.
The next few days were unexpectedly tiring. The fall collection event was going to be soon. Runway, models, outfits, heels everything needed to be taken care of.
The venue and decoration was to be taken care by Liam since Miss Smith has confidence on her nephew in this part.
Two days to go...
I have checked everything but us everything really fine? Checking once more would be better.
She took out the list from her pocket.
Heels done. Canvas done. Outfits checked. Runway 1 and 2 finalized. Models final fitting done. Makeup and hair artists informed. Accessories checked. Done then. I hope everything goes well.
Only if tomorrow everything is well with the venue then I will be relieved.
(Next day)
"Let's head over to check the venue though I know Liam is perfect." She said with a smile.
Why does Miss Smith be so confident about him? What's so good about him? A perfect jerk CEO. Meg thought.
"Yes Miss Smith".
(After reaching the hallway)
"Dear Meg I think I forgot my glasses in the car. You walk forward I will be back with it." Smith stated with a smile.
"OK Miss"
On reaching the front door she found the path closed by the door.
So she took the backdoor through the runway. It was dark.
As soon she pushed the curtain, entering, the lights were focused on her, numerous confetti poured on her accompanied with petals and balloons. She was taken back. Surprised she looked around to see what was happening.
"Sorry mam it was the rehearsal for tomorrow." A man in his early 20s said with a shivering voice. He was afraid about her getting upset about the matter.
"it's ok sir" Meg said with a smile.
She moved her eyes to the decorations of the hall. She was in awe. Liam wasn't praised for nothing.
Her heart yearned for Liam. Eyes searching for him. It had been days they hadn't met once. Though he visited LL quite frequently due to arrangements but Meg took all possible steps to avoid him.
It's not a lie that she was excited for today since she expected him to be there.
Her roaming eyes were expecting Liam to be infront of them. But he wasn't there. She couldn't ask others about him since it may cause a misunderstanding but she wanted to see him once. What to do?
