Too Late, Mr. Cooper: Your Bride Ran with Your Baby novel Chapter 378

"Ahem..." Liam cleared his throat, slowly setting down his cup. He raised an eyebrow at her, a lazy grin spreading across his face. "What's this? Are you feeling sorry for me, Liliana?"

Liliana didn't hesitate, swatting him on the forehead. "Stop daydreaming."

But she was curious. What exactly was the deal with Liam and the Grayson family?

Liam, unfazed by the swat, lounged back on the sofa, one arm draped casually over the backrest. A dark, unreadable light flickered in his eyes. He smirked. Curiosity was a good thing; it meant she wanted to know more about him. The first step to building any kind of emotional connection was curiosity.

He saw right through her. "You want to know about my past?" he asked, his voice a lazy drawl.

Liliana, who had been wrestling with her own hesitation, blushed when her thoughts were so easily exposed. She coughed into her fist and sat down primly on the other end of the sofa, her delicate face tense. Averting her gaze, she said stiffly, "If you're willing to talk... I suppose I could listen."

She pushed him away, forcing a tight smile. "Say what you want or don't. It's not like I have to know."

Liam let her push him back, straightening up with a look of feigned disappointment. "What a shame."

Seeing that she was truly about to lose her temper, he chuckled and settled back into his seat. He picked up his cup, his long lashes shadowing his cheeks. "Don't be mad. I was just teasing you," he said, his voice low. "I told you before, if there's anything you want to know, I'll tell you without holding anything back." He paused, an unreadable darkness flickering in his eyes before he smiled and murmured, "Besides... some things are all in the past now."
