My Last Wedding Chance
Chapter 65 Protects You Forever

Harumi was a little surprised, but she tried to reply with a small smile "Well, maybe my whereabouts at the wrong time" then finally raised the glass and drank the wine in her hands.

At that time the car was running normally, across the Manhattan Highway which was still quite crowded at night almost late.

The corners of the man's lips curved, he did have time to worry about Harumi's condition. Didn't want to make that woman sad by his side. But after seeing her casual reaction, Liam could be a little relieved.

"i just want you to be happy with me" Liam said, looking at Harumi's eyes, turning towards the woman so she could face him. Highlighting his eyes differently, Harumi realized that.

Wine had not yet entered Liam's throat, he placed his glass next to the chair not wanting anything to divert the calm atmosphere of the two of them for a while.

The situation in the car was so quiet it was very comfortable and calm, there were not even noise that disturbed them.

Because it was too quiet, until Harumi was anxious if the heartbeat that began to react could reach Liam's ears.

Secretary Will and Driver activate the space barrier between the rear seat space and the front seat inside the Limousine. There is privacy for both of them.

"hmm, how was the party ? doesn't it matter if you go first ?" actually Harumi was a little clumsy, her eyes were moving in another direction. Not focused and not wanting to return the look of Liam's eyes, he thought switching the conversation was much better for now.

But, Harumi's misbehavior, the man could already read. Instead, Liam was happy, could make Harumi more unsettled, sometimes he lowered his head down, then raised his face again, his one hand slipped a strand of his hair into the ear and various other indistinct movements.

"It doesn't matter, because I didn't have the party" he replied casually

Harumi sipped the wine back, it seemed like she was starting to have a hard time controlling herself. At first he tried not to drink wine, champagne, or anything that would make him lose control.

But, all of it was due to himself.

"Liam.I'd better go home to Cathy's apartment. I can't..."

The man immediately furrowed his brows, his eyes narrowed in reply "It's not safe there "

Huh ? What answer is that ? harumi's expression suddenly changed, her eyes widened, many questions as if swirling around her mind looking for dangerous events earlier that made Cathy's apartment an unsafe place for her.

Yeap, there's nothing dangerous except a spill of wine into Miss Pompous's dress. The arogant woman's spicy lips were much more venomous than any demon, and Harumi was sure the safest place was nearby.

And back again remembering during the party event, of course the kiss scene, Harumi's cheeks suddenly blushed, It could be said to be dangerous if it continues, right ? he was a little confused imagining it.

"but you mean ?" ask Harumi.

Liam turned around to adjust his sitting position, taking out his glass. His back stiffened, his two eyes glistening as if implying something was hard to pronounce.

He turned his gaze away, turning to the edge of the glass that he had only toyed with in his hand. Staring at the small wave of wine liquid inside the glass, it was silent for a few seconds and then its lips opened.

"Anita knows all about you"

"Anita ?"

"My mother.she's a dangerous woman."

Harumi was flabbergasted to hear the answer, how could her mother possibly know Harumi's identity. And, hearing that middle-aged woman would hurt him, was definitely not a thing to be taken seriously. No way !

"You must be kidding me, right ?"

"Do I look like I'm joking "

Harumi's body pecked, the woman with the eyes full of hatred that would be a threat to Harumi. Really ?

Harumi bit her lips, trying hard to think straight.

Their conversation turns into tension, Liam realizes Harumi's skin is turning pale as well as a dark shadow appears under his eyes.

"What if he's going to expose it to Anton and my family ?"

Liam brought his body closer, touching Harumi's soft face. Look at every part of his face.

Warm, it was the first one he felt when the hand gently rubbed his cheek.

"He wouldn't dare mess with your life, believe me. Family reputation is very important to him, but he does not hesitate to eliminate someone he does not like"

Harumi's hands shook, slowly rubbing against her thighs, getting sweaty on her feet.

He was not doing well, his lips docked forming a hard and tense line. Horror crept down his spine when he heard the word "dissipate" the first time.

"Yes, God" Harumi whispered as she shook her head.

"Hey...Oye...Look at me.." Liam calms Harumi down, throwing a locking gaze at her. "No one will hurt you, not as long as you're with me"

Harumi's lips finally forced to talk "Liam. This is not true"

Liam snorted "End it ? No..No. It's never gonna happen."

An uncomfortable feeling rose at the bottom of Harumi's stomach. He knew Liam's stubborn nature.

He did not take his gaze away from the unmoving figure of Harumi.

Without thinking for long, Liam pulled Harumi in his arms. And as he hugged his body, he felt a cold sting of fear for the first time.

"Liam.." he said.

"Don't talk anymore. There's never an end to the word"

His embrace tightened, Harumi's body seemed to shrink in Liam's embrace. The warmth, the heartbeat of the interconnected, their fused scent, made him understand that this man was different, he loved Harumi very much.

At a glance, Harumi did not want to run away anymore. He wants to continue with him, against the circumstances, against those who will blaspheme them, the cruelty of the world they will accept as a result of this Forbidden Relationship.

Harumi wants to face it all together. But....

But.... Harumi still has no power to hurt Anton, Mom, Dad, Mama Elena, and the people who love her.

He could not see Liam's reaction later if the man knew Harumi's true condition. The condition that has always been a sharp spear is always piercing in her marriage, even Anton her husband did not want to accept Harumi's condition with air. It was like Aib to him.

A tear fell from his eye patch, shutting down trying to calm his turbulent heart.

Harumi doesn't want to hurt Liam.

Slowly Liam let go of his embrace, looking down at Harumi hiding his face, a deep anxiety. A long strand of black hair covered part of his face.

Liam touched his chin and raised his woman's face. She was surprised, Harumi cried. This is the second time since I first met Harumi. He watched again, the woman he had always protected shed tears over his cheeks.

The first time he saw her crying was in the Mansion, his private room when he landed his first kiss on Harumi.

Swiping tried to wipe away the tears, seeing it like that was torturing Liam.

Harumi's black bulumata is wet, her eyes are glazed. He was unable to say a word, his lips twitching his body began to not connect with his mind.

Harumi understood, they were already trapped in this forbidden relationship. Letting go of it will not be possible, whether this can be called Love or just a momentary desire. For now it kept spinning inside his mind. But, he wanted to make sure of it, the impulse was extremely strong.

Harumi's gaze was faint, both of her hands on top of her thighs tightly gripping her black dress.

Then, Harumi got closer to Liam's face slowly closing her two eyes.

This time, for the first time Harumi landed a kiss on Liam.
