Chapter 4 – Deception 

Melissa’s POV

Without thinking, I shoved Liam’s office door open so hard that a thunderous bang reverberated throughout the room, rattling the glass windows and instantly silencing the voices inside. Everyone’s conversation came to an abrupt halt, and all pairs of eyes snapped toward me 

My gaze swept across the room, taking in the scene before me. Liam sat in the center, white Hall and Vicky occupied the seats on his left. Amber and Warren sat on his right. The sight of them all gathered together felt like I was an outsider. 

I didn’t care if I had interrupted whatever discussion they were having. My chest felt like it was about to explode at any moment. 

My lips trembled as I stared at Liam, the man I loved more than myself, the man who had convinced me that I was the most important person in his life.
