at me. “After hearing you and that girl, I know I can’t do this. I can’t be a pawn in your game.”
“You think you can just walk away?” Liam said, dropping the towel at his feet and taking a step toward me. I gulped and took a small step backwards. I couldn’t go far because the pool was right behind me.
“Yes…and I will.” I pushed down my nervousness and straightened my back. “You are just using me to get the company from your father. I won’t be used then cast aside.”
“Jenna, you chose this. You could have said no, but you didn’t. You also signed a contract that is non-negotiable.” He stood right in front of me, staring down. With his huge frame surrounding me, I felt really intimidated.
“I don’t care about the contract or the money anymore. I just want to leave. You can find another girl to use,” I bit out, feeling anger rise inside of me.
“Wow, you really are stupid. The contract you signed states that you are not allowed to get out of it until the year is up, or if you do, you owe me one million dollars.” What?! Damn it. I knew I should have read that contract in detail. He did that on purpose because he knew I didn’t have any money. I’d have to stay here. I glared at him.
“You know I don’t have that kind of money.”
“Yes, I do. That is why the contract is the way it is. You will stay here with me for a year, whether you want to or not,” he hissed at me before turning and walking away. I stomped my foot on the ground like a little kid, but I was too angry to care at the moment. Liam had cornered me, and I stupidly fell for it! Now I was really stuck here until the end. Liam’s figure disappeared inside the house. I let loose a string of curse words.
I really was stupid. I should not have taken this deal. I should not have trusted Liam with that contract, and I should have known this was too good to be true. I was mad at Liam, but I was mostly mad at myself for actually thinking this deal wouldn’t be a terrible thing. My anger simmering down, I walked down to the bungalow and sat on the bench. I hate my life.
The rest of the day passed by slowly. I spent a good three hours outside just thinking and yelling at myself. It seemed Liam had no plans of leaving the house, so when I walked back inside, he was eating in the kitchen. I passed him, not saying a word, and headed to my bedroom. I spent the rest of the day/night avoiding him. When I ventured out of my room a few hours later to grab some dinner, I saw a light down the hall on and knew Liam was in his office. Not caring if I was quiet or not, I grabbed a container of food and microwaved it before heading back to my room to eat. The less time I spent around Liam, the better.
When I woke up on Monday morning, Liam was already gone, and I was thankful. This was going to be the longest year of my entire life, but I was determined not to let Liam get to me. If he wanted a wife, he was going to get one. Two could play at this game. I had no problem spending his money, changing his house, or acting like the spoiled brat he seemed to think I was. He should have picked another girl to use.
The rest of Monday I walked around the house, coming up with ideas on how to change it. If I was going to be here, it was going to look different, more homey. Right now it was empty and cold. All week I was going to redecorate to keep myself busy.
Dinner came and went, and still no Liam. I grabbed a blanket from my bedroom and headed to the living room to watch a movie. Going over to the wall with movies lined up in every space available, I ran my eyes across each shelf, trying to find a good movie. For someone who wasn’t ever home, he sure did have a lot of movies.
Finally I grabbed the movie Dear John and then got to work trying to figure out his DVD and sound system. Yes, even Liam had Nicholas Sparks movies. It took me five minutes just to turn it on. When I got the movie in, I jumped back onto the couch with the remote and
